Forcing to Brace oneself to advance forward

Hello readers,

Been busy for many many many months and now yet still busy with life, work, and also social.
Life never been easy for either you or me, I am sure about that. In fact, it is getting tougher as days goes by.

I am now in my final year of my undergraduate programme and yes, I am excited to graduate and start earning to support myself. I do support myself now as well, so do click on the advertisements if you're interested. :)

Time really flies these days, at a glimpse of an eye, it already near to mid of the year now. Oh yeah, today is APRIL Fool Day.

So taking this opportunity to revamp my blog and changed the design of it and whatever not. How do you find it? It that photo of me too big? HAHA!

I really don't know what to write after quitting blogging for so many months, or perhaps years. Used to be quite an active blogger but till late, just got busy and lazy. Anyway, been actively involved in media events that allows me to expose to the entertainment world, actually. I like that. Also, continuing my journey of composing music and songs.

If you want to listen, I am sure you are listening to few now, please comment and rate it. If you do like it, help me to spread my music to the rest of the world. I hope that my music can give you not only pleasure but courage to overcome whatever obstacles you are facing now. :)

So, yeah, a short post before I get back on what I have in mind to write.

Thank you for reading!

Chris. :)

The Moment

Thank you!

Sudden

I seriously don't even know why.
It was all sudden that all the feelings just came surround me.

It started to guide me to flash back on so many matters.
so many incidents, so many memories, and so many endless dreams.

Some which I hope it was never be there, some that hope it is still in place.
Some which I hope it never ended there and then, carrying on with the memories and the endless dreams.

What could we do? We cannot do anything much. Just able to recall, flash back, and remember the moments.
It was never easy but it was never difficult too. We were the culprit of all.
We were the factors, and yet, we never ponder our true self.

It is sometimes, too late, for things that happened, for moments that passed, for memories that faded.
But, hidden in the blurry corner of our mind, there they were.
There they were the things that we tried not to remember, not to mention, and not to feel.

The feelings and emotions are just too difficult to be describe.
So difficult that we might just loose our breath, our motivation, our directions.
It also made us to think negatively towards the current people around us.
It come in sudden, it never goes in sudden.

Time, is what can make it away.
Time, is also what make it fade, BUT.
The feelings and emotions may appear to us anytime, anywhere.

I am tired, I am falling back,
but, I will stay strong, I will stay focus.

Pushing myself for better.

P/s: I am falling back does not mean I am falling back in any aspects. I am referring to I am moving too slow that I am falling back in my progress.

I got MY JACKET!!!

YES YES!!

I got my jacket from Korea!!!

I will be wearing it on 28th of July!!!

Will then only post up the photos. :))))))

Looking forward to it!! hahaha!!

AnyongHaseYo!

Its either no mood to blog or busy with life.

Just some updates,

I am so into korean fashion. haha!

Just ordered a jacket from Korea. Hopefully will reach by next week. :)

Till then,

Chris

At last!! Completed my Year 1

My mood now is indescribably happy!!

Final examination is over which marks the end of Year 1 of Degree.

I have to admit, this semester 2 is tough for me.

I barely can survive with good grades, even getting a pass was difficult.

Why la why? So difficult to understand the topics and so complicated to use it for application.

But whatever, this is life. Life never go easy on us.

So, we need to enjoy every single moment that are granted to us.

I'm going back to work soon.

So, music is back to my life.

New Look!

Yes! Finally, I've managed to give my blog a new look.

Yes! Finally, semester 1 of degree has passed

Yes! Finally, 1 month break for me

Yes! Finally, I got you. xD

I've just completed my 1st semester for my 6 semesters degree programme.

Time flies and as well I am getting older and older.

Exams ended on Friday, which actually gave a sign of relief to myself.

Been stressed up before the examinations, and some other matters.

But now, I'm glad that I manage to pull off every single matter that I've planned.

Yes, end of examinations means holiday.

I have 1 month of holidays which I am gonna start back on work.

I will be working at Yamaha again, but it will actually help me though.

anyone wants to visit me there, you can do so. haha!

Preferably, buy some instruments from me.

Oh yeah, did you notice? I am sure you noticed.

My blog has a new look, more refreshing and loving.

The old look was a little dark and dull, so decided after exams must change it.

So yeah, practically, I've completed one of my never-ending list-to-do. haha!

So what do you think about this new look?

Share your views with me.

Besides changing the look, I've added two important links.

• My Youtube Channel
• My Official Fans Club

Link can be obtained from the sidebar under Favourite Links.

Hope you can actually support me. :)

Losing 1 = Nothing, Losing 2 = Something

Rather tired nowadays, with all kinds of matter happening around us.

Maybe around me in particular.

But it is good that sometimes we get these happenings to occur to us.

We learn through these matters, from both, negative and positive manner.

Recently, I've found out a person on FaceBook which will be refer as IT, actually posted that IT friend list is increasing in numbers and mostly IT does not even know them.

IT also feels that it is annoying and useless to IT.

So, IT decided to open up a new account which states there VIP only.

After noticing the new account was created, people actually confronted IT.

Asking why does IT need it?

IT replied, I am lazy to delete off those people that added me,

So I want to use this new account to filter out my friend list.

So, other replied to IT, so who can add into this account?

IT replied, you can send the request but I won't accept. Only accepting people that I want.

So, yeah, I wonder, what is the point of approving so many people at 1st,

and then cutting them away as you wish?

Some of them are actually your friends, maybe you do not like them.

It is kinda awful, if you ask for my opinion.

However, that is some individual's mindset.

Want to get popularity, when you get it, you wanted to get rid of it.

Just use your 'MIGHTY' brain to process these little thing.

Do not add anyone or approve anyone you do not like or do not know.

So what I am trying to send here is that,

Losing a friend is nothing to a person

but losing 2 or more friends is something that you need to consider.

Further more, do not use friends as a tool to boost your popularity.

Popularity means nothing to Friendship.

Friendship, is one of the most valuable asset a person can own.

A wrong statement or action can destroy this asset.

So, treasure your friends like how you treasure your family.

P/S: I might be changing the design of this blog soon.

Till then,

Few more days

Hey guys,

Few more days, it will final examination for semester 1.

Actually, I kinda stress about it, not prepared for it,

Though I am preparing it now, but it is rather difficult.

Degree is ain't the same as Foundation.

We need to elaborate more and more and the marks are getting difficult to obtain.

However, these subjects has been studied for twice.

But I wonder why, I just cannot score in it.

One word from the Lecturers teaching me,

CARELESS!

Careless behaviour seriously kills.

Losing marks at areas that I am not supposed to lose.

I am really doomed this time.

Anyone wants to help me on getting through?

You know la, Taylor's Business School standard is damn freaking high.

Plus more, we are the 1st badge of students for the undergraduate programme.

In short, we are guinea pigs and also students that set the standards for the rest of the students.

Guinea pigs!!! I hate being guinea pig!

Anyway, everything is on hold right now, i meant everything except studies.

On the other hand, after the final examinations, anyone would want me to perform?

The charge for performance for solo player has increase though.

I meant for myself.

Previously, charging RM 50 for half an hour session.

Now, it's RM 100 for half an hour.

The good about the increase is that, more songs are being played. new and nice songs. :)

So, I will be waiting for any request.

You can also mail a request to ctyh.blog@gmail.com

Reviving the Blog

Hey guys,

Sorry for the outdated blog here.

I was actually busy with my course and also work, so i did not have the time to update the blog.

However, I am back with blogging now but with the condition that I am available.

For the past few weeks, many things have happen too.

Basically assignment, assignment, and more assignments due during the past few weeks.

And also, finals are just around the corner.

So basically, we need to start studying for the examinations.

That's pretty enough about my progress in my course.

Well, what's next?

My work, hmn.....

few weeks ago i did performed at the Yamaha Silent Fair @ MidValley Megamall.

The crowd was ok for me, but heard from my friends that the songs were beautiful.

I am so happy that people actually like my compositions.

Words just cannot explain much about my feelings though.

Trying to compose more songs but due to time constraints, it is kinda impossible now.

Though composing is not very difficult but to compose a good quality songs is difficult.

Also, I am trying to compose with lyrics nowadays,

you know, everyone needs to improve themselves all the time.

Another matter will be, I might not be releasing my albums.

Because i want to send in demos to publishing companies, and if they wants it.

It is illegal to publish the songs. So, the plan of releasing the album will be on hold for now.

On hold until I've decided to go on with it.

Anyway, I cannot afford to actually release it, the cost is kinda high.

The cost basically goes mainly to the album cover and CD.

Unless, anyone would want to sponsor me. :)

It will be lovely.

Anyone? Anyone? hahha!

Oh yeah, after my finals, I am joining back to the work force at Yamaha.

Can drop by to chat with me though. and buy some instruments from me. haha!

By the way, August Band released one of their new songs on youtube.

I think the lyrics for this song is beautiful and the melody too.

Title of the song is LOVE IS NOT EVERYTHING

If you like it, go to youtube to rate it.
