A little peek into my life.

Hey there!

It was Poly50 today and also Victoria Street’s latest gig! We played alongside Que La Peace today (a.k.a Band 1) as well. The nerves got to us indeed, however on overall I felt that we did better than during practice! I managed to keep time with the metronome alongside and it really helped that I could follow it closely so I can enjoy myself playing the songs. All of the songs were good! Except Jet Lag where I accidentally hit my face with my sticks and it dropped. I was in panic mode even though I had already prepared another pair of sticks in my stick back on the right but I went to pick up the one that I dropped. It was a first time for me that I actually dropped my sticks so I need to practice on recovering fast! So on the overall I really enjoyed myself. The feeling of the entire performance was similar to that when VS had our very first gig at the welcome party, something we’d never forget. Especially during the last song, Crush Crush Crush by Paramore. There was just this natural ‘high’ when I played that song. I literally played my heart out during that last song. The feeling was just awesome! Adrenaline rush! Haha.

Well apart from that, now to the down side. I didn’t bring my bass for performance yesterday so I had to practice on the keyboard. It was really embarrassing that Erica made the entire class repeat because of me playing the wrong thing. I apologize to everyone for that. I am inadequate and therefore was a burden. But anyways, today I brought my bass. It made me realize how much I sucked at the most basic thing too. Scales. I guess this is time for me to start going back to the basics and moving up the progress ladder again. I shall work hard! Rar!!

Spanks.
