My life with music

Hi.......I'm back.I was in Taiwan for a couple of days. It's been awhile since i last went thereand everything is still the same as it is. The smell, the streets, the food, the culture.This trip, I learned a little more about the culture in Taiwan for I watched a concertby Taiwan's Music Scene's Godfather, Liu Jia Chang 劉家昌http://zh.wikipedia.org/wiki/劉家昌This man wrote over 3000 songs and more than 1000 of them were being performed by the most famous singers back in the 70s and 80s. He is currently a fugitive due to his involvement with the politics back the old days and the party he was supporting is actually the president of Taiwan right now. It's complicated, i don't know the details...... but living in this generation, we are so different. The teenagers, the artistes, we won't be anyway involved with politics at all. Video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9bEL9qSBFYQI admire the kind of passion and involvement they have with their country.I lack that, I know.I was born in Malaysia, but migrated to Singapore when I was 4 and till today,I haven' memorized the national anthem of malaysia. Singapore's anthem and pledge of course I know by hard as it was compulsory to sing it everyday before we start our day at school. I miss my school days. Now that I have been in Hong Kong for many years, people here regard me as a Singaporean, not one of their own. But when I return to Singapore, the people there don't feel like I am a Singaporean, and of course i sound or look like a Malaysian. Sometimes I feel very lost. I wonder where i belong to.I guess I belong where my family belongs....Its always when it's late at night and you are all alone when your mind starts to wonder..... so please pardon my randomness.I'm having my singing lesson tomorrow. Always very happy to be at the Metro's office. My singing coach, Sean, he always has a different method to help me overcome any problems I have with my questions and songs. SO i'm very looking forward to it as I'll be practicing the songs that i'll be performing at Michael Wong's Big Band Concert at the Venetian, Macau.  It is very rare to have a full big band at a concert. The pop concerts in Hong kong definitely doesn't have it. When I was rehearsing with the Big Band a few days back, I was ecstatic.  The energy and passion of each musician was overpowering. They inspire me. I just wanna keep on singing.Video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dGGzugEnSqEI was reminded of the school days again when I was part of a military band playing the silver flute. Our band was the top three in Singapore. Every alternate year, they would hold a inter school bank competition and the year Rozy participating in, they were the Champion !! I was there cheering for them, and for the first time ever, the whole school was united as one and singing the same cheers together, it was awesome. Its something like when you're in Liverpool watching a Liverpool match. I love it when everyone's united. The next year, our band was invited to take part in the Nation's National Day parade. This time, I was involved and it was the hottest 3 months in my entire life. Every single day after school , we had to rehearse in the field under the scorching 35 degree sun carrying my flute parallel to the ground (yes thank god i wasn't carrying the drums)  . At many times, I nearly passed out and sometimes, i really did pass out. It was terrible, my skin was burnt, i was all burnt out. but at the end of the ordeal, I felt kinda proud. yah, people feel proud after doing something you put a lot of effort in. The sad part is, till today, I still have never seen the television broadcast of it, I only knew i had to march 3 steps, turn 90 degrees to the left, 5 steps, turn 180 degrees to the left, then another 10 steps......thousands of steps every single day yet i don't know what formation we did. Yes till today, i still do not know. Video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sW1WngYuhrk&feature=related Video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V_ljK0oN5-E&feature=relatedThere are so many things in life we spent so much time and effort in and got 200%  involved in, sacrificed for ,yet still do not fully understand.
