Ugh, im feeling like shit now.
Today woke up alrdy feeling abit sick le.
Afternoon went jamming wif Dan, Venka.
Janel today cmi, Shamel locked up by police.
3 ppl nia, but OK la.
They said it was the most productive jamming session so far.
They happy, i happy lo.
After tt, Guitar lesson.
I think its here tt i caught fever.
I walked frm Bugis to Dhoby Gaut with the fucking sun and heat.
Alvin's leaving SG. Going to Berklee's!!
Last lesson wif him, and i was late.
So onli hav like half an hour to ask him questions.
Turned out to be de most productive lesson also.
Haha, its onli when there is not much time left, tt things start happening.
I wonder if im suddenly left wif 1 month to live.
Or 1 month b4 i go overseas forever, if tts more appropriate.
Wat would happen luh.
Cuz it seems to me tt Alvin's alot more happy today.
Making every second count, every minute worthwhile, b4 he goes off to USA.
Juz wanna blog down wat he told me, so tt i dun forget.
Alvin said tt its OK to fall.
On de contrary, we must fall, so tt we can learn to get up.
He fell alot of times too when pursuing the music dream.
Same reason as i, Stagefright.
So to overcome it, he participated on lots of performances that he knows is can die 1.
Performances in front of musicians, ppl who eat guitar for breakfast, lunch, dinner.
Just as long as i do not give up, i stand a chance.
Plus, im still young.
My skills, theres still alot of time to hone.
If its gonna take 2-3yrs to master 1 hard song, so be it.
& still got lots more failures to go through.
Juz make sure everyone of my failures, i can get back up.
Tts it.
:Yea, tts not exactly wat he said. But at least, tts wat he made me understand:
Tts life in the Music Industry. Or even de entertainment bizz
I rmb i heard Kieth juz nw saying tt even he is trying like hell to enter the Chinese Music Industry.
Cuz the Taiwan showbiz always use the same ppl do run events, so de onli way to get inside is to be among the 'same ppl'.
So if the 'same ppl' are good, u hav to be better.
& friendly too.
He said Ruth Ling got in cuz she is de friendliest person to do businesss with, and she's freakin good in music.
Tts how she got from the reserve keyboardist, to full-time artiste.
