It’s never happened to me before. I KNOW I am happy to have the day off, but I didn’t wake up to the day feeling anywhere near happy. I wasn’t unhappy either. It was…I was just void of any feelings.

If you know me, you know I LOVE sleeping in – having the day off work for me is always about sleeping in.

Today I woke up at 9am. I didn’t get out of bed till after 1pm.
Granted, I did doze off a little in between 9am and 11am but it wasn’t a very happy, “YAY! No work, can sleep..ZZzZZzzzzZZ”
I tossed around and thought, “What am I going to do today?”

I guess you could say I felt “purposeless” – which is (I stress again!) weird because I like doing nothing on my days off. Couldn’t wait for it, in fact.

Anyway, found Janice and Sonia through Su’s entry and I’m inspired to start practising (and learning more chords) again.

I can’t harmonize to save my life – but I want to learn. I’m envious of those who can just hear a song and play it on their instruments, or sing along in harmony.

I know it’s practise – I have the basics but I haven’t the creativity. Also, basics are slowly slipping away at this rate of non-use. I miss my piano back home (yet I know if I have it in front of me, it’s not like I’m going to burst into songs miraculously – it will still just be plain ‘ol chords). I have no way to get it here and I think maybe it would be good to get korkor to take it to KL so that at least it’ll be in use (no, I don’t want to get rid of it because I remember pestering mom to let me have lessons again and the piano was bought for me, brand new!) – by my SIL, not korkor.
I miss singing, too (I’ve lost stamina and am pitchy because I don’t have choir to go to every week).
