First and foremost, happy 21st birthday to Bonk the Frontman (16 Feb)! It seemed like such a quiet affair, his 21st, but that probably suits his lepak character hur hur. His birthday gift is still somewhere in the air freight, and I wonder what is taking so long for it to arrive. Been 2 weeks since I ordered it! It better not get lost in transition. Gah.
Valentine’s Day was a nice, (albeit forcibly) quiet affair too. Why? Adam brought me to Prego’s at the Swissotel and we had their V’s Day set meal (duh). Our reservation was at 6.30pm. There was nary a soul there, but they HAD to place us beside a table that was occupied by a mother and her young son. It was that awkward. And others got to sit at some place that wasn’t near anyone else. Bleh. Atas food = small portions = nothing awesome. The Boy was still very hungry after that. So we ordered hotdogs and caught CJ7, then went to look for his mom who had a V’s Day show at the NLB to go home together. Chi chi time, yikes. (I only like to observe these straddling-between real-and-reel-life characters. Disclaimer: Doesn’t apply to his mom!)
Today, I recorded all my drum tracks for the upcoming YAWA? EP in almost 6 hours. Got a bit stressed midway because I was tired and screwing up. It was the exact feeling I had when I was young: I practiced piano for almost 2 hours, doing the same thing over and over and not being able to take a break until I got that particular crazy part flawless 5 times. I will now attempt to salvage my self-efficacy levels by claiming that my musicality confidence issue is better after today. Anyway, we’ll continue doing the EP at Snakeweed, and probably be done by end of May. If all goes well, our little album would have quite a bit of clout on its credits… Heh heh.
Another interview tomorrow. Will this be the one…?
Mupdates are self-indulgent and mundane updates.
