The other day we went jamming at this new-ish studio near Arab St. It was pretty cool, and quite frankly the best studio I've ever been to in terms of equipment. Only thing missing is a Trace Elliott amp, but I'll be getting that when we play at the Esplanade Waterfront so I won't complain. Anyway we're going back there tomorrow - looking forward to it. I feel so.. I duno,
professional playing there. It's like, hey, we're not in some el-cheapo shack with instruments that are falling apart, we're in an ACTUAL STUDIO. The doors even have frickin security codes and whatnot. And a
waiting area. I mean, like an actual waiting area, one that looks like a doctor's office or sth. I guess the downsides are the price ($22/hr) and the location (have to walk abt 10 min from Bugis MRT). But you win some, you lose some, I guess.
What is CNY really about? Family? Money? Oranges? Watching lame shows on TV? Talking to people you only see once a year but wish you'd never see? Enduring stupid questions about when you'll get married when you don't even have a partner? ... Kinda glad I don't have to celebrate CNY. The only thing I celebrate about it is the getting to sleep in two days in a row. Believe me, that is something to celebrate.
I reached a new level on FF7:CC. I got the Graviga materia I've been (literally) dying (over and over) to get! And if you have no idea what I'm talking about, it just means you're not an FF7:CC freak, so don't worry. I don't know what it is about CC. I love the storyline, I love the characters (and am beginning to think I love Zack more than Cloud :X) and I know it's just a video game. But sometimes when people say "It's just XXX" about the thing(s) you love, you'll just reply, SO WHAT? Playing CC makes me happy. And sometimes I think life would be quite, quite different if we were all allowed to return to the beginning every time we make a stupid mistake.
By the way, my children tally has increased.
