10 things I learn this week...

Hey!...it is time for my weekly report...

1. My JVC digital camcorder records videos and save it as .mod files

2. I have learn that digital video files can come in varies forms, such as .MOD, .MPEG2, .avi.... and not all video editing software can support all of them...for instance...the FREE window movie maker from XP cannot support .mod file.

3. Other brands of camcorder also have their unique video files format...like .VOB and .IFO for sony...

4. .MOD files can be converted to .MPG simply by renaming the files...becos .MOD is actually Mpeg2.

5. Window movie maker do not support mpeg2 as well...wait wait WAIT!...is .MPG the same as mpeg2????? mpg, mp2 and mpeg2 the same thing or different? what is the diff??

6. I have learn that the more I learn the more confuse I am.

7. I have also learn that the more difficult it is to learn the more I want to learn...Yet, It is slowing me down and frustrating me A LOT.

8. I have learn that being HUMBLE is REALLY A GREAT VIRTUE.

9. I have learn that EVERY APPLICATION COMES WITH AN APPLICATION FORM.

10. I have learn to take a straight bus from marina square to somerset and that the $5 Char siew rice at KENJI RAMEN(near somerset MRT)...is OIISHI!

That's all.

I was telling JM...

I was telling JM...about my frustration for not making art...
He suggested that it could be because I am not experiencing any extreme emotions now...

Indeed, such an enlightenment for me...

This one year plus to me is quite a void.
But it doesn't mean I am unhappy.

I have concluded that the reason for my unproductivity is due to the fact that I am feeling too carefree now...
Too contented...
No extreme emotions and feelings..
Which is unhealthy for an artist...

Haha...what an irony...

And so...should I continue to be feeling neutral and peaceful with life...and be UNPRODUCTIVE
OR...make myself miserable to make art...

I really don't know.

What do I really want?
