5th of March (Dreams)
I watched a documentary about teens life (as they've put it) and it was about this girl and her band making music. Well, she's a high qualification student while the other two 'Mat Rockers' highest qualification was primary sch education. The mother of this girl was against her doing her stuff but her father was very supportive. One day she began to slack and admitted that she's bored with studies and wanted to further their music. One of her band member was quite furious as he has promise her dad that they will not interfere with her study to approved that she'll be joining in the band. 'No diploma, No band!' That's what he said to her and walked off... However, she did what she had to do and it was all go0d. They're invited to perform at a music festival or something... can't remember... Then it ended saying that she quits the band and further her studies.
It was an inspiring show indeed. She went for her dreams and had it achieved. It was difficult for her to actually cope with hanging out with the guys as her mother is quite old-fashioned and being to0 worried about her as well as against what she's doing. Nevertheless, she overcomes it with the help of her father and her band members. Grateful to have such caring and concern band members who takes care of her and her future needs. However, as my own personal opinion, I am glad at the same time quite disappointed that she said she didn't want to study and wants to play music all the way. True enough that without Diploma, you can get nowhere in Singapore. Then again, the show ended with she quitting the band and continued studies is quite 'Hershey Strawberry Pie and Cupcake'...
The reason why --> the show illustrate inspiration to the youngster to make music BUT for the fun of it instead of having it as a passion and a dream. I am not arguing that studies is not important but I am pointing out that DREAMS are meant to achieve. Studies are just qualification/certificate towards a specific job that requires it. In overall message it says, "You can't have such DREAM as it doesn't have a future" which is not true. You haven't try, you wouldn't know. It's as if hopeless even when you go so0 far... It is quite a bad reflection i'd say. This is just my own opinion.
After that, there's this show called Bintang. It's about this old singer Yazid former LoveHunters member. Don't laugh, I just know that they're from Singapore as well as Sweet Charity. I thought they're from Malaysia. Excuse my late dated info. Anywayz, this show tells about Yazid-LoveHunters-Yazzbo... He telling us about his life being him and how he become a star. How and where he started to play the guitar, singing.. How and where the band started.. ETC.... Almost everything. This i'd say it is an inspirational and i mean, Positive Inspirational documentary/show. It tells about an artist life from the hardwork (before he became an artist) of how to become a star to how to live as a star and sustaining and continue achieving the passion of music.
I believe that this show has make the youngsters who loves music and has the passion of it will go on and create/compose thier music and keep on doing what they love to do for living. Nevertheless, not forgetting the studies to0. Having such dream doesn't mean we have to neglect our studies for surviving the reality. Keep it alive, listen and dance...
-->> Dreams do come true
? a life to0 precious to WASTE.
