Had my first "interview" with this guy from a band just now. I was pretty apprehensive initially due to the fact that I don't usually like meeting new people alone because I won't really know what to say. But everything went alright, and it's kind of cool how we realised that we share the same birthday, right down to the very year we were born in. I'm telling you, it's something in the cosmos. How often do you meet people who share the same birthday as you, let alone the exact same year you were born in?
I guess I've reached the age where I want to establish something in my life. Being a national athlete used to be the main/sole objective of my secondary school and JC years. I'd always wanted to train really hard to represent Singapore in international competitions. Then I had the opportunity to do so with waterpolo, and after 2 years, I realised that although being a national athlete has its perks, commitment and training 4-5 times a week, on top of school, is hell. Maybe if I even liked the sport, it wouldn't be so bad. Soon I came to terms with the fact that the reason I stuck with waterpolo for 2 years was because I wanted to be a national athlete. Well, that novelty soon wore off and I knew that waterpolo isn't what I wanted. Quitting was hard initially because a part of me still yearned for the prestige and glory, but I learnt that what's most important is that I have to have the passion for it. So I quit, and with it came the end of my sports days. I won't say that it was easy adapting back to life without any training to attend because I've always had something to train for, be it swimming or waterpolo or badminton, eversince I was 11. Quitting opened my eyes to a new phase of my life which now revolved solely around school. I'd admit it felt empty at first. At present, I've arrived at another phase of my life - music. This came pretty unexpectedly because I've never considered myself a music person. Sure I've played the guitar since I was 14, but only until I picked up bass 2 years back, that I realised that this might actually be something that I'd like, and something which I want to take to another level. So at present, my band-search is still ongoing. What I want is the opportunity to be able to perform in gigs, as well as an avenue for improvement. I have another 2 more "interviews" with 2 other bands. Hopefully in time to come, I'd find the right one to belong to.
