Dreams

It's weird that my dreams (the kind you get when you're sleeping) are usually realistic. Characters in my dream are real, either my family members or my friends. I seldom get dreams when I sleep at night, but always get dreams when I sleep in the day. Recently, I dreamt that I met Munkit (secondary school classmate) and Chinseng (primary school classmate) at Yarra River (Singapore river equivalent)!

As compared to Evelyn, my dreams are really "down-to-earth". Evelyn often get weird dreams out of imagination. The ONLY realistic dream she got was that I scolded her for skipping lectures. HAHAHA!! She's a thinker and a writer. I wonder... how somebody can think so much. Because I can't even after trying hard. Neither can I write. C grade for both news writing and feature writing in my poly years is probably trying to tell me something. One thing I'm for sure... I put in effort to get my news. Hahaha, but oh well..

It's kinda easy to tell a person's personality by the "genre" of their dreams. Evelyn is obviously the dreamer - where ideas generate. I'm obviously the superficial doer.

Now at 2.36AM, I haven't showered (did karate before this). A few pieces got me into my dream mode. Always wanted to play an Etude by Chopin, but failed eventually. Etude requires high technical skills on the keyboard because it is like a finger "exercise". But I don't know how he wrote them in every way that they sound so melodious and lyrical.

My music preferences are mostly influenced by the masses but the following pieces were chanced upon and they sound so good!


I heard this Etude on a CD I borrowed from Ngee Ann's library. It was so good that I bought the scores immediately after that and started practicing everyday. Really demanding stuffs and my right wrist couldn't take it HAHAHA WEAK SIA. And stopped. Was listening to this just now it sounds so cheery and full of hope. Happy! Wished I could play it though T^T


This isn't that popular but I kinda like the running notes (sound like a troop of military ants to me). Typical Mozart. Bright, simple, structured, yet it sounds good and shocked me during a change of key or mood. It gets a little bare after a while though.

Times like this I wished I could play some music on my own! Urgh!!!!
