Let It Snow!

You will not believe this! It's SNOOOOOOOWWINNNNNNNNGGGGGGGGGGGGG!!!!!! In LONDON!!!! Woke up 2 days ago... Ok yea I shoulda posted this that day... lol... and the grounds were all white... like a christmas pudding... why does snow make people feel better? hrmmm... I wonder... I didn't manage to get any pictures though... sigh...

Let's see... what have I been up to? Hrmm... Gigging, rehearsing, teaching... the usual... Oh, went to see Meinah off at the airport too... Met up with Melvin as well (no that's not him, that's skippo and me at nando's)... Went to chinatown and hagendas... however you spell that... seems to be doing good... been out with friends and stuff as well... here are some pics....


By the way, I've been starting to get back into real transcribing... like the really really hard solos and stuff... haven't been doing that in about a year... and guess what... I shoulda done it earlier... my playing has improved! It's just these everyday distractions...

Well, I have to admit it... I do miss Singapore! Very much... Look I'm talking like a brit now... AHHhhhhhhhh!!! MUST STOP!!!! LOL! Haiyo... anywayz... I have to go and do my hair now... the barbers here are crap... Oh... the funk band is going well too... Trying to get some gigs soon... if there are photos... I'll let you guys know ^_^

You Go To My Head

Ok... So I finally have time to sit down and write about Christmas and New Year and blah blah blah... Uncle, Aunty and cousins came over to stay at our place in Basingstoke and then go to Wales... Wales was cool... besides nothing to do all day indoors, we did go cliff climbing and stuff like that... next to the seaside... I wrote words in the sand... the beach was nice... raining though... nice country... also feeding the ducks and seagulls by the docks... quite a nice change from learning about m7b5s and X flat major augmented #79 b 25... you catch my drift...

Church was the same again... same old people with their same old groups... sometimes I wonder why people go into this fake accent when they pray... I mean... just TALK normally! urgh... anyway... I watched BORAT at my friends place... it's soooo disgusting... please DON'T go and watch it... it aslo poked fun at the church.... BORAT pretended to be a homeless guy, everything taken away from him and all that... went into church and started 'faking' deliverance... It just dawned on me that for the unbeliever, a protestant church can be really scary... cos when it comes to the songs and you know all that expressive stuff (not saying its wrong), one can be unsure whether or not he/she wants Jesus... Here's the clip for a touch of harsh reality for you...

That explains what I'm trying to say a lot better than I can... comments? Anyway, I've been drifting a bit... Better start concentrating on my studies again... I haven't practiced in 2 weeks and a bit... Oh well... I need inspiration and I need it soon... Oh yea... my friend's friend got murdered just a few days ago... and one of my other friend's dad died... harsh times... Just hope this new year is gonna be better...

Hoping...
