Yes!! Yippee!!! The gruelling o level is finally over...
The time has come to relax like there's no tomorrow...
I've been waiting for this day to come for a long time. Finally my chance at jamming a a "professional" so-call studio.
Alright, my day started at 6.40, waking up all excited for the very last o level paper.
The Multiple choice paper for Combined science. It went quite smooth, the paper.
Immediately after the paper at 9am. i was all fired up for Play. The first activity planned out the previous day was to go for a jamming session. I've been waiting for this chance for a long time. Ever since i started learning to play my electric guitar.
But before we could go mad....
We were held back, Had to filled up a ridiculous CCA form and many still owed General the TIME CAPSULE Items....
TIME CAPSULE
a box created by the General Herself for us her Evil minion to store item which would hence leave us thinking at least ten year later, what on earth was i thinking by placing my Stapler there?
So, Arranged with Daniel to meet up at a later time before jamming.
Being too bored to go home (which also means that once home I'll be a couch potatoe and be a geek playing Xbox...)
I Drag David on a trip to Peninsular Plaza first. To Check out the Beautiful Guitars around. Anyhow David was scouting about for good acoustic guitar and good Electric guitar. And I a fantastic 15-20 Watt amplifier. The 10 watt SX amp is killing me.
Ok.... Indeed we went for some serious hunting to burn the time. Went from shop to shop to test/try their guitars and consulting the expert on guitar.
At first we weren't sure of where would be a good jam studio to go to.
Daniel arrived kept showing off his camera, than an unexpected addition to the group came.
Sok Zhen dress in all black...
Ok so effectively before Sok Zhen arrived, we already booked the studio, It wasn't quite what we originally planned for.
Once we "rescued" the "damsel in distress" the jamming session commenced!!!
However, being totally noobs at jamming and playing in unision or whatsoever... everything was just experimental.
The jam studio somehow did not turn up as Nice. The guitar were all old. Amplifier's sounded weird. No distortion...
But never mind. Good musician would always be able to make good music out of even the most badly conditioned instrument.
Alright in the studio, Daniel and David spent most of their time wacking the Drum aimlessly. i was attempting all my best to Teach Sok Zhen (not that it was difficult<>). David and Daniel were just too loud.
Daniel when round photoshooting...
i just hope that She had learn much today.
It was only towards the end of the session did we had some organisation.
Over all the session was fun-filled and we all had a good feel of How jamming was like. Looking forward to more sessions in the future.
Ok after the session we went out, or rather beside the plaza to Funan. We had a late lunch, starving for the sake of Music. I ordered a MEGA BigMac, a limited edition BigMac. Ok. it was reasonably big. Still rather the Botak Jones, U-CRAZY-WHAT!?. That was what i call huge.
Than Daniel's photoshooting session again.
After the meal we went around walking aimlessly again. Just to get rid of the boredom.
While walking we went pass a huge Stationary shop. Sok Zhen went crazy over the "cute" notebook and bought a few.
Than some photos...
Home sweet home.......
I might update the photos of the jamming trip as soon as i get it.
