Halloween's just around the corner and I've been hearing how my friends get to go for cool parties etc. Kinda wish we could do that. So far I've tested 3 Gibson Les Pauls. A classic, standard faded and a standard. I liked the standard faded, the other two weren't meant for me. Its like after playing the guitar for 2 mins, you know its the right guitar for you. Its just that feeling, like how you know whether that girl is just a friend or something else. Haha.

pfft

I know I haven't been blogging in awhile. I've been busy with a couple of things.
Couple of major things have happened in my life. Might not be for any of you but it is for me.

For once, I do not feel the need to wake up every single day at 7am to play WoW. Finally sold my account for 600 bucks. Could've sold for more if it was an american buyer but I do not want the chance of getting scammed over the internet.

Taking guitar even more seriously now then I did a couple of months ago. Sorta just planned everything out on what I'm buying etc. Need to save about another 7000 dollars to get everything else that I want. Haha. Hopefully the delivery fees for the amplifier head I'm importing from Hong Kong won't be that expensive.

I took up lessons again. This time more seriously, I finally found someone whom I look up to and who can answer everything I throw at him. I've learnt all the basics through random playing over the last 2 years so I guess its time to move on to the more difficult stuff.

Being single for me right now is great. I can just focus on what I want to do and not really worry about anything else actually. Its more freedom. On the plus side my dad won't have to keep on nagging at me telling me how horrible and troublesome women are. His best line so far has been " Look at your mom " . Hahahahaha. Which is really true for her case. I seriously don't think all women are annoying. After hearing stories from close friends I think I'm going to stay single for awhile. Can't seem to find that girl thats right for me. I don't attract girls right off the back from my looks. Why you ask? Rofl I look like a geek, and I'm proud of it. I like who I am. I like how some people like me for my personality not my looks.

I've been visiting music forums and mocca quite a bit recently, trying to sell off some junk I don't want or need for that matter. Btw if anyone wants a PS2 for $150 which is in good condition, feel free to contact me. I need whatever I can get for a new guitar. Still haven't compared which sound best suits me yet though. Its a toss up between 2 brands, Gibson & PRS, and plus after that I still need to see which model to buy.

My influences have changed from bands to solo guitarists over the past few months. Now that I think back, the whole listening to bands thing wasn't really my thing. I can listen to Paul Gilbert for an entire day but I can't listen to Taking Back Sunday for an hour. That's just me I guess. Its not that I don't enjoy it, I just prefer more instrumental music now.

Went out with them yesterday. You know, the whole lot of em. Great guys, I think we'll be friends for a LONG time. I think I'm catching on to Song Yuan's craziness. Except he makes fun of other people and I make myself sound like a retard to get people to laugh. Its effective though. lol!
