Today I'll be going to practice at SCGS... for the concert. Slightly stressed cos I'm unfamiliar with the poppy style of playing. But I'm still looking forward to playing with the other musicians. Hope we can click quickly. We only have 4 days to do so. When I went for practice on Saturday, it was clear that those choir girls are talented... But their lack of energy just spoils the whole thing. Being unsure of the words, their dance steps and just the general effort being put in. Hope they fix that up soon.
Freelance drummer? Sounds classy but I don't feel adequate to be called that... People like Dennis or Gerald are more suited to that. I'm just a amateur emo-rock drummer. I've been watching drum videos... Trying to pick up more styles and techniques, but I'm not there yet.
Worship on Sunday... I love playing for worship like that. It feels like every beat I play is a form of worship. Every fill-in is done with a purpose to praise. Every crash is a cry to how magnificent and glorious God is. And I just enjoy playing like that. I really wonder whether the congregation could feel the presence of God through the music. It disturbs me to think that some of them could be focusing on the music or on the style. Some might be irritated at the 'noise'. But I feel that this is our act of worship as a band. As ShaoXiong says, to worship with all our heart, our mind as well as all our strength and to flow with the Spirit with our playing. Thomson and Joe, acoustic & lead guitarist respectively, were saying it was a bit messy. I didn't think so.
I don't know what I want... When I think of her, her face keeps changing. So that means I don't know. So I'll just take a deep breath and keep running.
I'm craving for Burger King right now. I think I'll rush down to the interchange after this lab ends.
You're dominated by your right brain, which makes you the artist. The degree in which you're dominated by the artistic brain depends on your score. The higher your score is, the more dominant this side of the brain is.
Not only are you highly creative, but you're also very emotional with a tendency toward sadness and despair. You have great spatial ability and are good at recognizing patterns. You would be at your best in a creative field such as graphical art, creative writing, poetry, music, drama, photography, etc.
Though the left brain has given man the means of survival, the abilities you possess to create and inspire has given humanity a reason to survive.
