music

Music has played an important role in the family. It's the factor that bonds the kids. They speak music language. Many a times there is music from the piano and cajon. Then there is the ukulele that goes all over the house....everyone strums on it except me. I'm the only unmusical person in the house.

Dan with the ukulele. 

Started with the guitar. 

The next instrument that is coming to the house is the saxaphone. We are waiting for a good time to visit the music shop, find a teacher to teach the instrument and get the instrument. I was very impressed by a band that performed in a wedding. The saxaphonist was good and I enjoyed it very much. So suggested to Dan to pick up that instrument too. We'll see. It will be our year end project.

slow blogging year

This has been a real slow blogging year for me. It's the mid of October....almost year end and I hardly have time to blog. The whole year has been so busy that I put on hold almost all the things that I enjoy.

Climbing hill has slowed down; very irregular. Evening stretching and exercising has almost come to a stop. As a result I can see myself blooming again. Watching videos at night on YouTube is totally out. Reading books...I still managed this though not as many books as previous years. If I don't do this...I'll go nuts.

Why has the year been so hectic? Blame it on work. It's scary how work and the amount of work just take a big chunk of my life and I end up not having enough time for myself. I am able to sit here tonight to put some thoughts together because I have not been in school for two days....attending course and therefore I am not troubled by work!! Think I should go for courses more often and forget about work.

Some things that had happened this month: somebody tried to break in the house. Thank God we reached home on time to see the person in action. Blur me horned at the car parked right in front of the gate just to realise later it was an attempt to break in.

Made two trips to PD with the kids to destress. It was good. Just driving there and taking time to soak in the sunset and the sea.

Coming up: the most important event of the year....SPM. Lyn will be sitting for it in like two weeks time. Time flies and changes keep happening.

I hope the building in front will be done ASAP. Endured the dust for the whole year now.

5 Theta had a sad year....two students lost their parents...one to cancer and the other to accident.

Good to type these words down.
