Day 3 of blogging.

June 28, 2007

current mood: tired but happy. :)

Well, interesting today. Had my guitar lesson, came back with a CD full of backing tracks and jam tracks. Need to work on my pulloffs and slides. Also, would any of you like to see a video of me just jamming to one of my tracks? drop a comment.

That’s just about all I can say now, apart from I’m tired, and I’m signing off for the day. Just keeping the blog updated.

Something caught my eye.

June 27, 2007

While reading the Second Life forums I noticed Navaro Bao talking about an airborne roleplay system. This bit in particular caught my eye:

” Apart from housing this role play environment, The Ark will also be capable of
moving about the mainland. That is drifting from place to place, enhancing the realism, and allowing for more interesting, and involved role play while also avoiding the need for owned land.

While the ship is in this drifting state of movement, it’s inhabitants need not sit down, as is custom for most ships within SL. Due to new technology, it’s crew members can treat The Ark as if it were solid ground.”

Looks like the Teen Grid has developed capital ships.  I wish all these guys the best, and I’ll be looking into getting involved with the project.

Definitely my last post for the night now :)


My life today, and a new blog widget.

June 27, 2007

current mood: content :)

You probably noticed I’ve got a MeeboMe widget on my blog. Feel free to use it, abuse it, leave me whatever so long as it’s not above PG-13 (or UK 15 rating)

Because of the way Meebo works, I’ll probably only check it if I’m out and can’t get at a regular messenger, so don’t expect quick replies or anything. But it’s still cool :)

Now, for the real bloggy bit.

Reasonably OK day today, went over and played Questa Notte as I said in the earlier post, so that’s all good. Made my wrists ache, but hey, I’m good for Saturday’s performance. Started learning Seek & Destroy on the guitar as well. Self-note: I need to play something other than Metallica. Maybe some more Deep Purple? Guys, comment me with suggestions. :O

Bye! :D

Imma playin mah piano.

June 27, 2007

current mood: tired :(

So it’s one day since this blog’s creation, and I gotta go over to my piano teacher’s house to try and get up to speed on an acoustic piano in preparation for a concert I’m performing in on Saturday. I’ll be playing Ludovico Einaudi’s Questa Notte, a fast flowing piece that is one of my favourites. Only downside is around 3 minutes in my wrists start to hurt. Which is why I need to build my stamina on an acoustic before Saturday. Challenge up ahead, guys. :O

As for the guitar, I’ve put my new video up as you can see in the previous post, and I’m working on the next one already, this time Welcome Home (Sanitarium) by you guessed it – Metallica. I’ve entered Fade to Black into the ultimate-guitar.com cover song contest as well. :D

Anyways, I have to go now, otherwise I’m gonna be typing for hours. Later guys :)

Hello world!

HELLOOOOOO WORLD!

Yeah, I have a blog. Yay. Just need to remember to keep it updated now. :o

Hi, everyone, it’s me, some of you know me, some of you don’t, but that’s cool too, you will in a few months of reading the blog. I’m seriously gonna be posting any stuff here, so this is, I’m telling you now, going to be seriously random. ;D
