Variations on My Guitar Frets

Today, after a long stretched 8 hours and 30 mins of classes, I went looking for XY. And the process of circling around Block C 1st floor, trying to chase up XY from far behind eventually brought myself to the door of a piano room. Then we noticed one of our fren who's taking foundation in music in UCSI was actually practicing piano, which then he happily allow us in to listen to his playing~

It's so nice of him to play for us quite a number of songs, which then an emo thought struck my mind.
People who has the talent to excel in one particular thing that they're really passionate in, always earned my respects and compliments.
And witnessing people who can really focus and specialise on something which made them unique, really gives me a thought that, I'm just a nobody.

I have quite some academic achievements, but that doesn't make me a genius at all;
I play the guitar and trumpet, but it's way too incomparable to professional level;
I do exercises, join marathons and even hiked mount KK, but I'm so so totally not a national level athlete;
I have the ability to write, but my words are definitely not quotable or even close to inspiring;
Obviously I'm not tone deaf, yet unquestionably I'm not as good as the Malaysian Idol Daniel Lee;
and so on..

So, these proves nothing but I'm always only of adequate in whatever I do. A typical case of, Jack of all trades, master of none. There goes my ego shrinking and my self-esteem leveling down.

However, my confidence tells me that, I'm good, but just never did I excel in something in particular.
So, welcome to my life, a journey of defining the high quality that I posses. And perhaps, it's this learning process that drives me further, giving me the strength to confront all the difficulties in life! =)

Then, out of a sudden, the world went upside down, which was extremely in contrast with the emo-ness I had a minute before.
After brushing our shoulders, bumping into each other for quite a number of times, only then I was told, that one of the 2008 batch jpa guys in UCSI, is actually my 11 years-long lost friend!!!

I used to study in Kwang Hwa primary school in Penang from standard 1 to 5, then my whole family shifted to Klang due to my dad's transfer. After all these years till I'm 18, no doubt I had totally lost contact with all my penang friends, partly because I was too young to ask and keep all their contacts at that time i guest; which turned into one of my deepest regrets.

Until today, I met Disen and he confirmed that we were standard one classmates! OMG. He started telling me all the stories like 3 of us competing with each other to see who finishes the homework fastest, how we usually hang out, and even walked all the way to the front of the blackboard to copy down notes!! HAHA. All that he said are way too familiar!!!!!!! Then he mentioned lots of names which had already stored deep in the back of my mind, and he even came to my house b4 when I had a birthday party during standard 3!!! Gosh. I felt so foolish that, 2 weeks ago, I helped him to carry his bag without able to recall back all these memories!!!

That's why I nearly had a cardiac arrest when he told me, wat a shock man!! We had been quite a best fren back then i guess, however, clearly, we missed out a lot of each other due to my transfer. There must still be lots of things that we shared in common~

Hence this time, fate really played its trick. Credits to his super-duper good memory power, I finally declare that I haven't lost contact with ALL my penang frens, and, I feel like a penangite once again!! XD
