Here I am telling my friend not to lose hope and persue her interest in music and for me, I've already given up on my passion even before I got a chance to start it. Cos I know that as long as I stay in singapore, that passion of mine will get me nowwhere,only low wages and lowly status. But music I would say is something that you really need not only passion, but also talent to excel in it. Cos in this little city state of singapore, you not only need to move at the fastest pace to catch up, but also with the greatest amount of alligence. Cos here is not a place for failures, thats what we've been trained from young to believe. Only those who are able to persist in this town/city/country only will u survive.
