Stereotyping musicians...

Most people that I know (not to mention those that I don't), have a stereotypical image of musicians.

They think musicians' life is easy, and they're poor, can't make enough money to eat, dreaming all the time about flower fragrance, praising the sun and serenading the moon... etc.

And all you people who think like that, please remember this phrase of mine: This idea is disgusting!!!

First of all, we musicians, like anybody else, need to eat and sleep and shit. We make money out of our hardwork. "How do you guys work hard?? I thought you only need to play music?"

HELLO????? ONLY play music did you say?!! Bitch you're too ignorant.

If we ONLY play music, why do we have to go through all those hazzle to find a good teacher, to go overseas and study?? You think playing music is easy ah? Try learning Tai Chi for a month then you will see how difficult playing music is! It's exactly how it feels like!

Then I've even came across some people that think that a musician can't fix their flat tyres, or wash toilet. COME TRY ME!!!

Basically, for them, musicians are bunch of sissies who drink the morning dew, serenading the lunar, chasing stars, surfing wind, diving in the safari, dance on the water, walk in the night sky... anything else you can think of?

In fact I'm tired of this shit, that's why I wrote this.

Eh, please lah, before you say such things think again lah! We are also human, flesh and bones like you OK?
