BTC 3rd class

It's today, again! I'm sitting in the train while posting this. I have like few stops to write so it won't be long~ :)

I'm just feeling awful that I haven't done much since the second class from 2 weeks ago. Right here, right now, I'm going to list the things that I was supposed to do but haven't yet done anything. There's reasons for that, I shall give myself a review of what to do every now and then, and find a way to be more productive.

Things that I'm supposed to do in the past 2 weeks:

Demo x10(done 7 by showing videos)

Print photos for my dream board

Write a letter 

Listen to CD 

Yes, these are the things that I'm supposed to do. Now that I have written it down here I cannot anymore find any excuses to brush it away. 

I'm Arriving the station so till then!

My brain is still filled with fresh taught bass thingy~ X_x

Just finished bass PI, in fact, I finished my class an hour ago. PI classes are normally only half an hour, but this lecturer of mine is really really really really nice that he try to make sure I understand most of the things, and my brain was like OMG I WANNA ABSORB MORE BUT I'M AFRAID IT'S TOO MUUUUCH!!! Okay calm down... caaaaaaalm doooooooown~~~~ .___.

I don't wanna forget anything that I've learned today from Bass PI classes so I think I will roughly note them down here~

REMINDER: Adjust the height of the strings to the fret board. It's easier for me to play when the string tension is lower. And if I don't, the muscles on my hand would develop strangely.  Well, I'd have to ask someone who knows how to do it, I'm kinda scared if I do it wrongly~ :O

So today, Frank was asking me to play 1 2, 1 3, and 1 4 back and forth the fret board. It was easy at first, but until I reach 1 4... seriously... MY FINGERS ARE SOOOOO SHOOOOORT that I have to streeeeeeeeeeeeeeeetch my index finger and my pinkyyyyyyy~ Actually, that's not REALLY hard, what's hard is that, when Frank wanted me to speed up and press the strings, the sound goes "beeeoooonggg"~ which is kinda UGLY! It's kind of a challenge because the tension is kinda high and hard to press at the first few frets. meh. .___.''

Then Frank taught me triads, that's what's supposed to be taught today. C Major triad, 1 3 5, one octave. And because I haven't remember all the chords on the fretboard, Frank was like "ehhhhhhhhh so noob one you!" = = And so he taught me the 1 and 7 finger position in one chord, and 1 5 7, for example, in G major, it's G D G. much more easier huh? daaaaaaamn I find myself so stupid by trying to remember all the chords on the fretboard... = =''' Frank was like "Good luck on that~" lolololol~ = =

Alright, just wanna write down what I've learned today. Half an hour more till my English class. *yaaaaaaaaaaawns~*



Dewa dewa~

Died in class~ = =

Ahhhhhhhhhhhh~!!! Freaking stressed! = =''''

Today's Performance Lab class was talking about Improvisation~ well, something like that. I kept "fishing" during that class... Not that I don't wanna listen to what my lecturer is saying, but I don't REALLY understand what he's trying to teach.

"Nah, like this!" "OK?" "Understand ah?" "I want something like this!" and playing by himself all the time, expecting us to fully understand what he's trying to teach and what he "WANTS" from us.

Zomg~ music is not about just one person's opinion! We have our own playing style~ zzzzzz~

Today I was sitting in front of a keyboard, and switched place to sitting beside Walter when my lecturer asked Sherenn to try to play what he was teaching. The moment I sat down beside Walter, he tried to talk to me in mandarin, saying "I wanna die liao~ I don't understand what he's trying to say~~~~" and gunshot himself~ = =''' I was like DAMN! I DON'T UNDERSTAND TOO LAAAAA!! In silence~ lololol!! XDD

Arrrghhhhhh~~ The only thing I can do now is to TRY to UNDERSTAND his class, at least a little bit, and go home and practice myself~ zzzz~~~

First, I guess Imma hafta strengthen my skills in classical...

Oh yea.... Autumn Leaves~ improvise~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
