attitude problem

do you have an attitude problem? what really cause attitude problem? do you like to be accuse of having attitude problem? do you accuse people of having attitude problem?

Let's see... defination of attitude.
According to dictionary.com - Attitude is define as A state of mind or a feeling

n 1: a complex mental state involving beliefs and feelings and values and dispositions to act in certain ways; "he had the attitude that work was fun" [syn: mental attitude]

My theory is attitude problem is just a difference of attitude between two subject. Lets say.... Person A has a different attitude towards for example a project over Person B then Person A will accuse Person B having attitude problem just because he/she does not have the same working attitude.

But let say Person C is able to compromise with Person B, will Person C ever accuse Person B of having attitude problem?

In my opinion, everybody takes a different attitude towards something, attitude problem arise only when two attitude does not agree. So actually, I can say that attitude problem is not a problem at all. Any second opinion? This two words actually carry NO i mean N.O meaning at all...

So i hope all living human beings living on this polluted earth stop accusing people attitude problem and learn to compromise with each other. ATTITUDE PROBLEM is just part of the foul language family where when people run out of words to scold, they just pick up words from here and hopefully carry on with scolding!

Imagine a Husband takes a different attitude from his Wife when doing say household chores, the husband will accuse the wife "YOU HAVE AN ATTITUDE PROBLEM ISSIT?" and the wife will also go "YOU HAVE AN ATTITUDE PROBLEM ISSIT?" Wow... then i think i shall study to be a lawyer, all couples in the world will start divorcing each other. earning big bucks man.... You see, you don't see this in marriage often, why? because they learn to compromise each other.

So after all this rubbish, let me summarise.. Attitude problem is purely a difference of attitude between two individual!

Anyway, people, you can challenge my theory... jus tag your comments. or you want can call me or email me. I am all ears to it.

Auf Wiedersehen!

Making of a Band

Got this from somewhere, to a certain Extend, its pretty true about what goes into a making of a band. =)

"If instrument doesn't exist,a band won't be formed. But, a band with onli woodwinds, onli a melody is formed. But, it is different, when only a band, is formed with onli brass instrument. A harmony, A melody, will be formed. But when a band is formed with every instrument a perfect band with a perfect music will exist. And that shows us, the harmony of music, the harmony of nature. But, when there is an instrument, without a player, music will be formed by nature.

The music that is formed by nature, is a music that is natural. But,when a music that is formed by a heart of a human. A perfect song will be formed, that will touches the nature's heart. And, with that way, a perfect song, a perfect melody, and a perfect nature will be formed. A band's harmony can be formed, when all hearts are connected, that will touches human's heart. But, without practices, a melody and harmony won't be formed. So, practice always. Practice makes perfect. "

Auf Wiedersehen!

Die SWO und SSW koncert

Just reached home. Overall, i think the concert was okay la. won't comment much on SSW because didn't really hear them, but they sounded quite okay from backstage. slacking there for the first half of the concert and crapping with my sectionmates.

Reached the concert hall over an hour late and still do nothing there, picked up my horn and went warming up with another section mate. then there is this german tourist that come talking to us, introducing himself from the Federal Government Commissioner for Culture and Media in germany. both of us got a shock. kena sabo, i was introduce to him and told that i could speak german. geez..! i lost touch with that languge that i refuse to say a single word, not even a Guten Tag! haha.. really must recall all those stuffs. Got his namecard, ppl interested in Berlin Philharmonic Orchestra we can call this guy! haha.. anyway, can tell his really in culture and media, was shaking heads and giggle went SSW was doing their really horrible tuning! talking about Sprintime celebration mentioning he like the color of the songs blah blah blah.

Kk... enough of him. During concert, opening part was kinda joke to everyone where everything just screw up. too last minute liao. representing joel to collect award, initially they placed us along the edge of the stage, i joked with the SSW players, NICHOLAS for SALE! haiz.. displaying models ah? kk.. crapping. anyway, collect award from Dr Tony Tan.

MR JOEL GOH! PLEASE COME AND COLLECT YOUR LONG SERVICE AWARD!!!

Mmm... Festive Overture, i play until breathless.. seriously if u intend to breath don't bother playing it, coz every breath equals to missing a few bars. opening fanfare sounds good, very grand. other than that, the usual glitches and stuff la, bluffable la...

Euphonium rhapsody n Carnival of Venice - nothing to say la. was euphonium's show.

Star Wars Saga - To the horns was Shit Wars Saga, a massacre for all horn players. hahah... half dead when the song ended, who won? i think its the Dark Side. hahaha... Again another bluffable piece, the band literally skipped a bar in the middle of the song, haha.. hopefully to the audience was not obvious. hahah!!

Combine Songs - Bist Du Mei Meir(something like that) erm... okay la.. Phantom of the Opera, its a horrible arrangement. another bluffable piece.

overall... bluffable!

Ich moechte gern schlafen.
Auf Wiedersehen! Guten Nacht!

dollar for thoughts

think i have diverted too much of my attention onto unnecessary stuffs recently. feel so lost, forgetful, retarded n senile. Lolz.. but thankfully there is this cute creation of god whom just pop out of no where and bring me smiles. thank you god and this cute creation. shall drop some issues, really.. not worth my attention.

somethings are better left un-said, somethings are better left un-done.

few notes - WASBE 2005, wish NP band all the best on their performance! too bad gotta bail out due to conflicting schedules. SWO concert this sunday, hopefully can put up a decent concert. my hopes are not high.

Due for NS medical, what the fish!!!

cents for thoughts

i don't want to jump into conclusion, i don't want to speculate. learnt a harsh lesson before and don't want history to repeat itself. quite irritated with some people's action, reaction recently. guys please do reflect on your actions as you may jus have misinterpreted the situations otherwise if you strongly believe is my mistake, i am contactable 24/7 to trash things out.

Auf Wiedersehen!

penny for thoughts

if durian is your favourite fruit because of its fragrance then comes one day it pricks you hard that you bleed, will you still want to eat it? if orange is your favorite fruit because you like the sweetness it brings then comes one day you ate a sour orange, will you still want to eat it?

Somethings are better left un-said. period.

Auf Wiendersehen!

IHP Experience (Week 12)

Monday - manage to get a sample of web service code from my classmate who was hiding somewhere in the library. i walked round n round n round with the terrible pain from my thigh muscles. yesh! the codes came in really handy, basically solve all problems related to coding. Met up with my supervisor, showed him what was done so far. Loaned PDA from him for the rest of the project weeks.

Wednesday - Research on RFID, coming out with a report or some sorts. intending to put it with my project report. nothing much. went home during the afternoon and fell asleep the moment i hit the bed. haha.. guess i am too tired.

Guten Morgan! Just an update..

Friday - Morning went down to RS teach sec 1s horn, trombone n tuba. free flow of puking and vomitting blood. have not been teaching for a long long long time. heard the main band, doesn't sounds as good as what pat told me. he too agree. guess its the result of a long break. Afternoon hang around town, collected tickets. then zoom of for joel bbq. stayed overnight.

Saturday - woke up super duper late, bbq the whole day again. completed BMT (a.k.a Basic Mahjong Training). i still don't understand how is it played. haiz.. got home quite late.

Sunday - Bowling tournament for Sembawang GRO, got trash like nobody business. ended up throwing balls only, didn't have enough practice for the game. My thigh muscle is still in pain as of now.. can't stand up and sit down properly. Good thing i treated my fingers with ice pack during the game otherwise i can't type or play piano.

Auf Wiendersehen!

spinning in circles..

argh.. hit another obstacle for my project. code is totally correct but it doesn't work. haiz.. went online to research. no help at all... monday meeting supervisor, don't where to hide my face if i don't get this feature working.

anyway, just to de-stress abit. do alittle DI a.k.a digital imaging work. color correction, captions and filter effect.. think is kinda cool. haha..




Auf Wiendersehen!

IHP Experience (Week 11)

finally... the database cum web service is up and running. manage to find the solution in one of the forums recommended by a lecturer. didn't understand what this guy solution was initially, but still manage to tweak a little setting and got it working.

gonna work on the 'e-coupon' feature. at least something to show my supervisor on monday. i will and must get the PDA from him to do testing. still worried about the RFID feature, wondering how am i going to simulate it since i don't have the actual device to work on. overall, move on tiny step forward, not wasting time, doing project at home 24/7 liao..

IHP Experience (Week 10)

what should i say.. oh yah.. IHP thinggy. =)

Monday - wasn't keen on turning up in school for IHP after burning every single bit of energy for the past 2 days. Somehow don't know why, my legs lead me towards the MRT station, so i took a train to clementi, quick transit on to the bus and reached school very eary. Walked towards atrium, get online and sign in attendance, walk out of school and head home.

Wednesday - Squeeze, bumped, squashed around on the bus!

Did some research on ASP.NET web service and databases. started to create database on Access play around with web service, still got error, need to update the Office software, ended up slacking and snacking in IHP room. Its mid way through IHP project. i have another month of programming work to be done. Got to get the web service up and running!

Painc index = 80%

"musical"

i just came back from a really can tell for sure low quality business sense but with no musical sense local truly uniquely Singapore musical production. (Try saying this with one breath!) Got free tickets to PCK the musical. My truly honest opinion, its the worst musical i have ever been to! wait! i don't even want to call this a musical... it should be called something else...

seriously, i am begging all local tv producers, please do not attempt to produce a musical from a award winning tv programme. all tv programme are made for a reason, that is they are meant for TVs!

Location - Indoor Stadium wasn't bulit for musicals! if u want to hold some pop idol concert or ice skating show or some mass event in a sheltered area, please go ahead and do it in there, don't produce a musical in indoor stadium. Out of three sectors in the stadium, only one sector can make it for seating, which is the center section where you directly face the stage. I suffered almost three hours of pain turning my head and body to face the stage. Ouch!

Timing - for goodness sake, if you print 8pm on a ticket, please promptly start the show. don't wait till almost 30 mins later then start the show.

Sound & Lighting - okay i really have not much comments on this area, sound quality is passable, lighting was okay. jus make sure equipments use are able to withstand all kinds of abuse without making some electronic static sounds.. its really irritating to hear those kind of static noise while the performer speak.. geez!

Storyline - really a typical singapore quality story line.

Cast - I think they acted fine, lots of room for improvement. But i would like to comment on the dancers a.k.a extras. They dance pretty well... Act pretty well.. great job dancers!

Musicians - Okay, there was a live orchestra playing. Not bad..

Costumes - Looks good.. impressive!

Props - Erm.. please invest in more technology into it, its so unsightly to see lots of people pushing and pulling and carrying and setting up props between scenes. One or two is okay not everything!

Final note - please don't promote sponsors within the musical. can u imagine there is one part were this actor is singing meanwhile promoting its sponsors, wonder anyone notice that anot?

But still i would like (as i always do) give credit to all people who put in effort for making this musical though personally felt that its far from international standards. Credits to the Cast, peformers, dancers, musical, backstage crew blah blah blah....

Auf Wiendersehen!

what a blast!

Curtains close for 2nd (or should i say 3rd) concert for the year. Yupz! PnC is over. Frankly speaking, it wasn't a good concert. tempo was up for a few songs.. intonation suffered here and there... but i think the credits should go to everyone who put in the effort spending their own free time practising for this concert.

Great job to the horns for the horn choir! still sounded off balance, but hey, i think they should still feel proud for that part. My solo, was freaking scary but was totally overjoyed when its over. Phew! I think the touch for that solo was good... as my teacher always say, slow touch was my forte... someone was charmed by my playing.. hahaha! (Speechless n no comments!)



Shall not say much... still very exhausted from last night, attending Yuhua n RV alumni concert later.. hopefully is good.. good music can keep me awake otherwise...

Auf Wiendersehen!
