exhausted

The weekends went by really quickly. I haven't stayed home much and I have to leave already. I wish I had been more lively when I was with Sam earlier, she too said I looked tired and I was. I hate booking out on Saturdays. Hope the week goes well, off I go now.

I fell asleep playing my guitar on bed but I did come up with 2 chord progressions before losing the battle to the Z monster. I'm still in the midst of finding my sound but I'm getting there. Hopefully I'll be able to post something up tomorrow!

CNY this year feels subtly better than the last. Ah ma's smile when she was preparing "Yusheng" for us cousins, changed my whole perception of the festive season. Yes, it is true that we're mostly bound to engage in half-assed conversations that don't matter for the rest of the year with distant relatives or get sick of pineapple tarts by the time we visit the third house but maybe what we fail to see is how these things actually mean something to someone who grew up with the tradition.
