It's a secret.... Shhhh

Me & Mrs. Jones,
We got a thing going on.
We both know that it's wrong
but it's much too wrong,
to let it go now.

We meet every day at the same cafe,
Six-Thirty and no one knows she will be there.
Holding hands, making all kinds of plans.
While the juke box play our favourite songs.

We gotta be extra careful.

These few days were quite unproductive, I was either working or spending time away like literally. It's my first time working a night job. I have to say it's seriously not easy to cope with the changes in time.

One moment, you're sleeping at 6am. The next thing you know, you wake up on the same day and heading to work again. But the pay's good, at least to me, at this stage of my life being 18 years of age.

Today i suddenly have this realization. Which is the fact that by saying 'yes', we're in fact opening ourselves to so much more opportunities(which is the idea behind the movie 'yes man') in life! So i shall start saying yes to more things.

Shall start with .....

P.S. I just realise that band resume on 31st of August. (Y)

This legend, a trumpet Maestro, remain as my top idol.
Maynard Ferguson.

My work place is Bellini Grande.
It is a modern day supper club.
I work there as a part timer.
That place is damn graceful & hip at the same time.
You will feel like you're in the mix of retro/classic & 21st century.
How cool is that?

I like the bands there.
They're better known as "Bellini House Band" & "5 series".
They're highly talented.
They're highly musical.
They're the best jazz band in S'pore I should say.

They inspire me.
They reminded me why I'm working there (although they don't have a trumpeter there).
They reminded me that I'm working there because of:

1. The money.
2. The unique night life.
3. Still the money.

They showed me what it mean by performing in front of crowds & at the same time, arousing them with their music.

They're cool.
I like them.

Practice more.

Singaporeans cannot be praised. That's a fact. Because once you praise them, they get proud & think that they're damn good. But in fact they're not. So guys, please don't praise me anymore. I'm a Singaporean!

Practice more. Give me 2 months.

Let's get the fundamentals right!

START WITH LONG NOTES.

Danny Boy

"Oh Danny boy, the pipes, the pipes are calling
From glen to glen, and down the mountain side
The summer's gone, and all the roses falling
'This you, 'this you must go and I must bide.
But come ye back when summer's in the meadow
Or when the valley's hushed and white with snow
'This I'll be here in sunshine or in shadow
Oh Danny boy, oh Danny boy, I love you so."

Me & my section. Damn they improve so much, made me feel successful as well. I always think I'm some kind of manager, leading a team of young guys (Arsenal)

Yesterday was the lunch box. Quite tired though, slept at 4am wake up at 8. The performance in a whole was quite a success i should say despite the fact that the crowd seem to be lesser than previous performances we had.

The solo(s) that i had was bad, real bad. Got really nervous, poor air control, hand shaking. But like what i always say, it's a performance to learn, so grab every chance to performance. If i haven't grab this change to play 4 solo, i probably won't learn how to effectively prepare myself for a solo. (Y)

Bottom line is: Practice more often, the correct way.

Do you understand?

Silence in the air can be disturbing at times but the act of thinking is so vulnerable that many fail to appreciate. Listening to music, while reading a book can of the simplest yet the most fulfilling act of self enrichment.

Many times people misunderstood me. That's perfectly fine. Without darkness, one can never truly understand the importance of light.

It's fine :)
