A Master

Tuesday, January 12, 2010

Today, Ms Su mentioned that to be a master, one has to put in 10, 000 hours worth of effort. Doing a little calculation, doing nothing but practice for 24 hours every day would take me about a year to become a master. 12 hours per day would take about 2.5 years to be a master. Imagine I practice guitar for less than 1 hour per day on the average. Even better, I stopped practice for the whole of last year and tune up my guitar to start again a week before. Guess how long it would take me to be a master? Would be better if I went back to piano huh? At least it would take a shorter time if I persist xD

Anyway, it was just a random thought. Hmm...speaking of random, I was thinking how short my attention span would be. Sometimes when I think of something, it would link to another thing that's completely not related to the actual thing and then it would link to yet another thought. It would go in this manner until I find myself musing about a thing completely off topic and wonder why I was thinking about it while I'm supposed to focus on something else. Heh, so I feel that I should do a little experiment. For the next 5 minutes I would type out whatever that happens to go through my brain and see what other thoughts are dragged in.

Here I go. Topic would be...Peanuts.
Ok, I'm gonna use purple my favourite colour. haha..see? i'm not even on the topic about peanuts anymore! It's 9.15pm now, At 9.20pm I would stop. Anyway, back to peanuts, had this word popped into my head while typing the post yesterday. Had wanted to put A levels would be peanuts...or at least walnuts at the end of the post but felt that it was too disregarding? Is it the right word to use? Anyway, peanuts, and walnuts. Dont know how walnuts came into being but it just did. Peanuts, something that elephants eat, and it does not have the same shape or taste like walnuts! Walnuts are so much nicer and peanuts? Peanuts are so common, eat too much and the throat would just go so dry. Hate it when it happens. Sheesh.

Haha...that was lame. Of course, what I had wanted to test is not that feasible. It's difficult to keep track of my thoughts and type down at the same time. The different kinds of thought just flash by so briefly, making snide remarks one moment and gone the next. Moreover, the wandering thoughts come into being when I need not be focused like typing things down...so yeah.

Ok, moving on. It's so rare that I would type 2 posts in a row. Yesterday and today. Anyway, I need back some of my audience to keep the tagboard not so dejected and unused =P
Was talking about guitar somewhere near the beginning of the post. Well, I'm proud to say that I can now play the intro to 彩虹 by jay Chou quite smoothly =] 3 days work haha. Even though it's just the intro, I'm still happy that it sounds alright and smooth. Working hard for rest of song!

Now I have run out of things to talk about. Gonna stop writing and go do some other stuff.
Cya~

P.S. dont mind the white highlights for some of the words, pressed some wrong buttons while changing font colour and it's now like that.
