I'm like super excited right now. So don't even comment on my grammar or spelling, because I'm not paying attention to them.
Even though it's really not that good - I mean, I already screwed up the 3rd note in the beginning - but who cares.

Excuse the terrible guitar playing and pitchy-ness.

Oh, and if you're wondering whether that's my real voice, it's not. I tried doing it in my normal (pretty deep) voice and then in this higher voice... and I like the higher voice.

OH, and don't mind the random thwacks you hear every now and then... I missed the strings and hit the guitar. Don't laugh at me. I am a noob.

My fingers feel really sore now. Especially the middle and ring finger; I've been using those to the most.

I guess the ring finger's not as used to pressing on sharp, flesh-slicing string cum wire as the index is.

Let's not talk about my pinky.

Why is Replay so torturous on my poor underused digits?

Soon I'll have lines embedded all through the fingers of my left hand.

But all worth it. :)

Whats more, I can barre.

Never thought I'd be saying thank you to Gee.

And I think I'm gonna hate it [insert gender - and I don't mean male or female]

#279; Of covers and tennis.

Aussie Open analysis
Current game: Andy Murray v. Rafael Nadal
Rooting for: Murray obviously.
Current Score: 6-3, 5-5
General score: 1 - 0 to Murray
General feeling: Ecstaticity for me. Devastation for my sister.
Reasons why I'm rooting for: Murray. Because I'm sick of watching Nadal pull his wedgie out of his shorts. Which are tight even when the tennis ball isn't in his pocket. Which means his bum sticks out. And his bum is bigger than my sisters' (which is saying something, because we're both blessed with the hips and bums that have survived generations).

OH. Nadal just fell. Is he injured? Will he be able to continue? There goes my mum, commenting on Nadal's nice shoes and top. Hello, he's sponsored by Nike, what do you expect?

9.54pm. OH. He's back. DEUCE! I guess I'll keep at this until someone wins. After all, it is 5-5.

COME ON MURRAY.

9.56 pm. 2nd deuce. Advantage to Nadal.

9.58pm. Nadal up 6-5. NOOOO I'm the one in agony now D: Come back, Murray, you beat him 6-3! That'll stop him from wearing tight shorts that prevent from running properly.

10.05pm. 6-6! TIE-BREAK! 1 to Murray! Woot!
10.06pm. 2 to Murray! Come on! :D
10.07pm. 3 to Murray!
10.08pm. 1 to Nadal... D:
10.09pm. 4 to Murray! Geez, this is like 1 minute after another. I feel like a commentator, though I'd probably get kicked out for just saying 3 simple words. 5 to Murray! And I'm not a-kidding.
10.10pm. 6 to Murray! Is Nadal really going to go down at this point? I shudder to think about it. But hey, he's won enough trophies. Aish, 2 to Nadal.
10.11pm. MURRAY WON. Murray won!. Murray won.

What an epic game. Just hearing my sister and mother screaming at the TV screen at inappropriate times (like in the middle of a rally) makes me relieved that we're not at the live one. We'd get kicked out for sure.

I'd be screaming with them. Must run in the family.

In due reference to the title (gee, that sounds a bit posh, doesn't it? No pun intended), I can now proudly say that covers are awesome!

Well, I'm indebted to Howie because he managed to write out the tabs for 니가 좋은 이유 (Why I Like You) by Super Junior, though I suspect they were a breeze for him (YOU'RE THE BEST BRO EVER, HOWIE). It's a bit harder than I expected, but I'm working on it. Looks like my fingers aren't as

Gee acoustic is in the bag too. And because I tuned my guitar- online obviously, I don't have a tuner - it sounds better than before. My strings were all too loose. 너라고 (It's You) is in the bag too. Though I haven't worked out proper chords to use for the chorus - and I need the chords, if not it's just plucking all the way throughout the song - it's coming along great.

Now I just need the nerve to record it and put it here. And maybe YouTube. Because sometimes it's embarassing when everyone you know on Facebook knows how much you suck.

It's okay when total strangers do.

#274; Well, aren't we musically inclined?
January 21, 2010 9:24:00 PM

I'm insanely jealous. In a positive-I-will-learn-to-be-as-good way.





God Buddha knows how many times I've tried playing this song. My mum's going to send me for guitar classes because, quite frankly, I suck. Okay, so I can play simple songs (like songs that only require plucking? Or easy chords?), but changing chords doesn't come naturally to me. And I have a feeling that my guitar isn't tuned right. After all, I tuned it myself. Teehee.

I'd much rather do classes in Malaysia. But we're always so busy when we go back.

Sigh.

I WILL learn to play Whatcha Say by Jason Derulo.



And I WILL learn to play this. I'll have to write down the notes myself, but that's easy. I already know that it's in C and I've already figured out the right hand. But matching the left to the right might be a bit harder. Oh well.

Now, all I need is a piano.
