Friday, January 19, 2007

I just spent over 12 hours at school today. Super tired. More so especially since I got about 5 hours of sleep last night. Yesterday family and I went to see Il Divo. Everything was really good, the singing especially, and they managed to incorporate rock into popera, making it more like rockera. The only thing that was a bit wince-worthy was the mixing at the start. They seemed a little too bass-happy, which is ok for metal and pure rock, but not when you have a string ensemble and woodwinds and all sorts of airy treble instruments. It cleared up around the third song or so, and the rest of the concert was good. The guys were really funny when they were bantering between the songs, and the funniest part was when one of them forgot his lyrics and had to start it again. No one seemed to mind too much, and it only happened 2 times.



Since that was a night concert, it finished really late, and I got home around 10. Used the internet till 1 in the morning, cos I'm an internet-addict, never mind that class started at 8 today. Was thinking of cutting but didn't cos I'm too guai. No one was really paying much attention in class anyway so spent the time studying. After lessons everyone migrated to the computer rooms to do more studying. By that time I was sick of looking at the stupid book, so spent time playing out showtunes and stuff on the keyboard with MP. Managed to have fun jamming session.



Test was delayed because the class using the place before us was really slow, so it was pushed back an hour. Managed to get our studio booking time extended all the way till 8! Finished test at breakneck speed and zoomed up to chope the studio. Had trouble fixing the DI box up, and we wasted quite a bit of time. Managed to get it running eventually, and MP did the honour of adding keyboard pads and her solo. The next portion was spent giving last minute guitar tuition to one of our classmates. He managed to make it much nicer than the crap we did last week, and it now sounds like one of the nicest parts of the song ^o^



Last thing we did today was the singing part. Our singer had a bit of trouble since she was recovering from the flu, and she wasn't entirely used to singing in G, but we managed to get a pretty good recording. And yay for EQing!



Our last recording session is on Monday, the day before the deadline. Probably gonna add a few more pads to beef some bits up, and possibly some harmonizing bits for the singing. Monday is also KEYS test day. Haven't practiced the improv part, and I didnt know we had to apply modulation!!!! D:



Now that the test is over, we have no more ACTS, or Theory, for that matter......which means that THURSDAY IS NO SCHOOL!!!!!!



More quizzes cos quizzes are fun.


You Belong in Fall

Intelligent, introspective, and quite expressive at times...
You appreciate the changes in color, climate, and mood that fall brings
Whether you're carving wacky pumpkins or taking long drives, autumn is a favorite time of year for you

What Season Are You?


You Are 70% Perfectionist

You are a true perfectionist. You are both demanding of yourself and others.
While it's great to have goals and standards, they don't need to be sky high!
Are You a Perfectionist?

Must....be...the best!!!!!!!


You Are 64% Shy

You are a very shy person, and it has started to impact your life in a negative way.
If you can avoid human contact, you usually do. And as a result, you miss out on a lot.

How Shy Are You?

I knoooww that! Don't rub it in DDD:


Brought my guitar to school again. Everyone seems rather...surprised that I've been learning, and everyone wanted to put on a guitar show. The poor guitar, got molested by so many hands today.
Your Band Name is:

The Bald Yankees

Band Name Generator



...I don't even have a band, and after seeing this I don't think I want one anymore. >.<



You Are a Blue Flower

A blue flower tends to represent peace, openness, and balance.
At times, you are very delicate like a cornflower.
And at other times, you are wise like an iris.
And more than you wish, you're a little cold, like a blue hydrangea.

What Color Flower Are You?


I like flowers :D

What Your Soul Really Looks Like

You are a wanderer. You constantly long for a new adventure, challenge, or eve a completely different life.

You are not a very grounded person. You prefer dreams to reality. For you, it's all about possibilities.

You believe that people see you as a bit small and insignificant. People pay more attention to you than you think.

Your near future is likely to be filled with great successes and accomplishments. You just need to figure out how to get there.

For you, falling in love is all about flirting and feeling playful. You couldn't fall in love with someone who took life too seriously.
Inside the Room of Your Soul


The picture looks scary
