I have heard Jazz music, I have seen Jazz music.
But I have never played jazz before.
Today i saw before my eyes a live jazz band!
I never knew how improvisational was it until today.
It is free but given a simple set of rules. Trading 4.. sometimes 8.
It is a pleasure to meet a drummer, Brandon. He is good.
Friendly too. He said he has been playing for 2 years, Wow, he is
better than i was when i played for 2 years. The trick?
He said.. " I practiced right.."
I do agree.
"What book?" i asked..
"bop drumming" He said.
*I was silent about coming across it and tot it was not really applicable to me..
i don't play jazz anyway. I have no idea what i play too.. i play.. mistakes.
Going back to drums seems rather weird now. Real practice would need real commitment.
Anyway i do love to eat the subway in NUS. They are real generous with their veges.
And with 20% discount. Nice.
And the bus ride and MRT rides are really long. Feels like vomiting.
Well, met this lady, Ruth. From the name she's obviously a Christian.
Pretty smart. Medicine student. Play really well too. As would be expected
for a 2 years drummer. Shivers.. i am really scared of what is in the head
of Medicine students. I was almost one. I'm one who couldn't make it.
Before school start i might want to warm up a bit before my jazz drums audition.
Hope to pass. *stretch fingers*
*picks up sticks again for serious practice*
God i will never forget you in my life.
Although i may not be disciplined to pray everyday, i still remember you are the one who gives me "today".
I can't digest 7 chapters of bible a day, yet i am glad i still hold fast to your promises.
Anyway, i know i am really bad.
But in you i still see love.
