On 4th of July, my class held a mini game. It started quite mysterious and exciting. He just asked us to grab a pencil and a paper and draw 10 boxes. The larger the boxes drawn, the better. At that time, I was thinking ‘Is it bingo? Is it charade?’ And my latter thought nailed it. Kinda, I guess.

The one thing that I like about the starting of the game was how quiet and tension the air was. It shows how determined human’s nature to get everything correct. Even Sir himself find it interesting. Were you, Sir?

So, to show you what I did, this is it. My roller coaster is disastrous. My Doraemon, my Minion…

So, after all this chaotic thing going on, I guess we should agree that to be a designer, animator, illustrator that requires us to actually design and draw things, it is not easy. Even I admit that I take about an hour to animate a jumping rubber ball! It applies the same in our daily life. Everyone needs time to finish their job so that the end products will be high in quality. Which is why I do agree that everyone needs the right to procrastinate, but no one should over-procrastinate themselves.

Throughout my life, music indeed own a special place inside me. In my head, I dream myself as a pianist. Little did I know that Pro’Sa Mania gives me a little bit of spice and somehow I ended up being a percussionist instead. It is a bit out of topic but while scrolling through my rants over here, I have a little riddle for you,

Why did a picture go to jail?
Keep reading till the bottom for answer!

Rewind back, it all started on 16th May 2019. I took the interview for Pro’Sa Mania musician as pianist. Unfortunately, I didn’t get the position as pianist. But it is alright! There’s still future up ahead! However, life as a percussionist is not that bad. It is just a different instruments anyway. Hold on, you might be thinking I’m playing drum or something. Actually…

*Ignore the mallet. I can’t find my mallet at that time*

I play the vibraphone and marimba/xylophone! Interesting out of 10. As a definite pitch percussionist, at least I let my eyes rest by reading only the treble clef. Unlike piano, I need to read the bass clef as well. Anyways, it was a fun experience.
