I've made *most* of my Christmas cards. This year, I decided to make them myself on photoshop. It's nicer, and saves people the trouble of reading my illegible handwriting (which, btw, I am very proud of because I think it looks nice)... almost done, and I'm really proud of my cards. All personalized!
If anyone is planning on buying me a christmas present this year, I need a new metronome. One that will last me for a long time. My digital one totally conked out after awhile. What else do I need... besides a JOB... actually, I already have everything I need and more, so I should be content with just that!
This has been a really sickly weekend. Spent most of it pretty sedentary, and being upset that I can't run. =( Nevertheless, the sickness forced me to stay home and practice piano. I have so many things to prepare for - Jupiter (SootyCat, WHEN ARE YOU EVER PRACTISING WITH ME AGAIN?), Da Capo at Esplanade Library (my Grieg is in absolute shambles), and a 15 minute recital for Mizuho Bank's new year party (have to learn new pieces because they want Japanese music and popular, happy classical music). It's really frustrating to be practising so many things at a go because while playing one piece, I'm already thinking about how there are so many other scores sitting around waiting to be practised. Think I'll stay at home this whole week so that I can practise every morning and night again.
And then, I suddenly realized, I am indeed better. After all these while, finally things are slowly looking up. I've come to realized, forgiveness entails letting go of past injustices without condition, or expectations. If my forgiveness is accompanied by any conditions, its merely a mask for vengeance. The right thing is always hard to do, but that's what I want for myself. Surely, I hope all unhappiness heals and come to a nice closure, but if it doesn't, I'll accept that its the way things are, and its no fault of mine. After all, I deserve better, than to grieve over someone else's childish failures.
