Hammer ons and pull offs are fun!

Playing hammer ons and pull offs are quite fun despite the fact that I still experiencing problems pulling off coherently and ensure all my hammer ons and pull offs are very smooth when played. And...good thing I had my godmother to teach me on some ear listening stuff and some basic music theory. Gonna implement them on my training soon. Now I can be learn to be more sensitive to the music around me.

Going to academic side, I think everyone deteriorated. (I am included too!!!) Furthermore, the curse of " being nearly there " has struck me again. I got like 69.4444444444444 for chemistry and 54.44444444444 for my physics. Arrgh, just 0.1 mark and I would be like getting ABC rather than BBD. Crap. Oh yea, I went to School of thought today and confirmed my subscription of Broader Perspectives with them. It will be the first time for me to read those articles in those magazines and refer to the dictionary simultaneously because heck it, those articles contain lots of words that I have rarely come across before.

And one more thing. I have still yet to give a message to that girl my tuition friend introduce to me. It is not a normal situation especially she comes from the same school as you. To compound my misery, I am gonna meet my friend tomorrow and he wants nothing less than a substantial update. Crap la, should I just skip chemistry tuition tomorrow?

I also do not know how to introduce myself to her. I cannot share my guitar passion or my video game passion. But I think we may share some sort of other hobbies...I do not know anyway...from here, I shall end my post.

Looks like my electric baby is calling me right now to spend some quality time with him. Smell ya.

End of another school week

Before I start this post, I need to make a sincere apology to all my friends who were previously part of SJI UGOs that I am unable to attend this year's Annual Parade. I am very sorry about that. Maybe I join you guys for dinner?

Ok then. I shall start spouting rubbish again. Today's college day was surprisingly packed. I remembered that last year's event was like a goner because almost all the j1s skipped college day. Got back some results. I was gutted that I did not improve in my Physics despite receiving 2 papers bad. Maths was not that bad..but I need to improve. I feel so lazy doing homework, so maybe I will start working from tomorrow onwards.

To compound my misery, I found myself being reduced to a noob in guitar. I kept mispicking, have difficulty increasing my finger speed for hammer ons and pull offs....arrgh..I want to play a song from Avenged Sevenfold or Eric Clapton. I need to master them 1st... I will pull it through...definitely.

By the way, I think neoclassical metal music sounds nice. I gonna listen to Paul Gilbert showing his super guitar skills now!
