whoa its been a week. probably the longest period of time i dint blog for.
the hols so far have been quite uneventful. cos i cant remember anything i did lol. well its only 1 week left to youth camp and i think there is still much to be done!! lol i need to start on my prayer walk devotion soon. logistically this camp is going to be the biggest ever wif currently 73+ sign ups. yeaps so everything we do we have to think in terms of 70 pple moving around.
yeaps. nothing much to think about now.. just that i realised how important it is to practice guitar everyday hahah. its the only way to get better now, and i think u shud too!!
ok wadever. cya
youth song book bloopers.
not surprising cos theres a whole lot of words to type out. dun be surprised if you find some mistakes still present in the song book during youth camp altho i've already vett it once.
"And the hopless still offered new birth."
"Since the Son of God came down with His love our lives to crown, He with us wiykd renaub;" the last two words are actually would remain, but somehow my hand shifted when i was typing. lolol.
"Never have I known cleansing so ddep and so sure!"
"The battle belong sto the Lord."
"Engage the waitng (waiting) soul to bless;"
"As I travel thru this pilgrim land
There is a Friend who walks wit me,"
"His faithful fllow’r (sounds like flower) I would be,
For by His hand He leadeth me."
"Climbing the mountains,
Crossing the plians,"
okok enuf.. the rest not funny anymore lolol. wah that was a lot of mistakes. hahah luckily i checked thru once.. but too tired to check thru one more time lololz. kk cya.
heya.
hmm.. today will be one of the most memorable days of this year.. inviting my fren to church :P u all must talk to him ok? i think he got a good first impression, and i think God intended the sermon to be on evangelism.
also, well done to louis on his first sermon.
yeapzyeapz. cant wait for youthcamp!!
yipeeeeee!!! ITS OVER!!!
muhahah. todays grade 7 exam was ok!! i hope. hahah the examiner is the most blur one i've had in a long time. shes from dunno where and is a pianist and choir teacher or smth (as u can see they seriously dun have enuf guitarists in the world, sending a vocalist to examine a guitarist). pieces generally okay apart from the occasional buzz or slip of string. scales ok too.. except A major 3 octaves which i screwed up (i hope she thinks becos of nervousness) and the spasticated dominant 7th arpeggio in the key of G played with
imam fingering. like wadever man. as if u noe wad that means lol. they realli shud not give so many ways for guitarists to play scales.. its realli confusing hahah... change of tone, change of dynamics, change of fingering, change of rhythm... man. every scale u play must remember four things.
aural. haha i corrected the examiner.. cos grade 7 supposed to clap and sing the bottom line. budden she thot it was top line. maybe i shud have just let it be lol. so guai. basically i was wondering why the thing was so long (about 12 notes) but altho she made some mistakes in playing the thing for me, she kindly played the bottom line super loud ^^. but in the end, i gave her back some distorted rhythm and some melody which i made up myself. lol. i think i pwned the cadence and modulation, the piece description so-so. and i learnt something new today.. the dominant chord of a minor key is actually major in nature. yay. luckily she gave me 2nd chance hahah.
sight reading. b4 i made it to the end she ask me start liao. wahhh. hahah but luckily it was in A major, quite ok for guitarists, but in 9/8 time signature, which i had never done b4.. so i played the notes almost all correct, with absolutely no sense of rhythm or dynamics lol.
yeap tts abt it, not to mention the room was freeeezing. hahah thank God i made it out alive :P and whatever results that i get, it doesnt matter cos its in God's hands now.
kk, cya.
i want to learn how to rap Ye Qu!!
i think i should blog.
actually life has been quite boring.. had mep on tuesday which was my most dismal performance in 4 years.. i did not study for the essay qn that came out.. and i guessed the period of the first 2 extracts wrongly!!! which meant that the composer was wrong.. and that means i lost 4 valuable marks.
and i realised i did the whole of the harmony paper in pencil. i heard that for some o lvl papers u are not allowed to use pencil. bargh. so if i get an A1, it is realli by God's grace. if this was my final year paper, no more top hahah.
happened to get an sms last wk that my sch music teacher wanted us IB sec 4 pple to go back for practice -.- so i had to go back ytd and today and go back tml again.. from 2 - 5. hai. no choice. hahah and altho the guitar orchestra is going thru a revolution to become more disciplined, old ways die hard.
ok anyway thats about it. heres a picture for your viewing pleasure, when u dun touch it for more than 3 months.
i think i used this guitar for the concert.. the one i played the concerto with.. so.. too much stress on the bridge? hahah i dunno. to be sent for repairs.
ok.. heres the long awaited photo of shawny and chen yi!!
