Long mumbling about guitar, music and me

Right now I'm mumbling about my guitar, music and me...haha can you hear me??...mmm i should write..LOL crazy mood is coming...this will be a long entry.

I love to play guitar and I love my Guitar just like I love my best friend. Without my guitar, my life is incomplete. I started learn to play guitar when I was in form 3 and now still learning by myself and much depending on the guitar stuff in the internet. No music class as I cannot afford to have one, plus i don't have time for another class. So, my improvement a bit slow. The first song that i learnt was a simple primary song entitle 'Lihat kebunku'..haha good start isn't it?...Then I started to learnt some popular song by Indonesian band like ; 'Demi Waktu by Ungu', 'karma by Cokelat', 'Ada apa denganmu-Peter Pan'...:) my 3 year old sister always asked me to play and sang 'Demi Waktu' before she go to bed...haha sweet memories and I miss that moment..see, how fast time flies, she is 9 years old now. She never ask me to sing that song anymore..:')



As time goes on, I becomes more determined to improve myself to play guitar better, I want to play guitar and someone sing along with me...hahaha I even dream to be a professional guitarist...and even now I still dreaming of that...I dream to play acoustic finger-style just like Sung Ha Jung..I dream to play guitar in a band, I dream to compose music and song...hahaha there's so much to dream about...just because I love guitar, I love the music and I love to entertain people with it.

But...haha there's 'but' for the dream...I don't really have the talent, and I admit that i'm a slow learner (playing guitar)..maybe because i learn by myself...I guess I will be a lot better if i have a real tutor...huhu never mind, segalanya di hujung jari...i just have to put more effort, and that more effort need more patient...Even though sometimes I got frustrated and think to give up on guitar when I cannot play certain song/when i learn to play bass/lead guitar (its kinda hard for me)...but somehow i can't really  give up on it. I remember one of my teacher (He also love to play guitar) said "I will learn to play guitar until I become master on it...when is that 'until'?..I also don't know. But I know that I will never give up guitar till I become pro"...haha its inspire me...So, i will never give up the guitar^^.

Music is just like a drug for me. without music, there is no day. when I hear the guitar music, feels like I'm in love...hahaha and my mind recalling the dream...and again I wish the dreams will come true....

Just now I mention about composing music, right?...You know, my Dad also has same dream with me...uupss! no, it is me who have the same dream as my father...I admire some artist who are singer-composers themselves but I admire my Father most...He compose some amazing and inspiring Dusun song and music...but because of financial problem he never record it properly...some of his song are known only around our village because he often sang it when there are event held like wedding party, birthday party and etc...i feel bad coz I can't help my father yet to fulfill His dream...I know how much he wish other people to listen and inspired by his song...have them for their music collection...He is not aiming for the popularity...i knew it when he said (dalam bahasa Dusun la dia cakap) "just upload my song anywhere...youtube or whatever...I just want people to hear my song and music"...but we argued for that idea, not only me...but some of my relative also not agree with it...because someone may stole the song and the music...and i can see that he is a bit disappointed... :'( huhu feel like wanna crying...and that day I make a promise, I must help my father to fulfill his dream...A bit more, Dad...
just be patience...:)

hahaha actually, I manage to compose a few song in Dusun language  just for fun...I would like to share it with someone but I am not really have the confidence for that..but I let one of my young sis hear it and she said it is good...hehe may be later i would upload it here...And I like to compose action church song for children.hehe have some idea for that but still not have the mood to write/play the music..composing song, for me it is not an easy task...writing the lyrics is not a big deal (just for fun song :P) but to make the words sing @ to find the melody is a bit difficult...It takes me a few days to complete just 1 song, if I malas, it took a week@ few week...and you know, it is hard for me to compose song in other language (malay/english t'utamanya) except in my native language...
haha For those who really want to write a song but don't know where to start, this link maybe helpful :
huh to write this long always take such a long hour (almost 3 hour)...hahaha lucky!...don't have much work to do since it is holiday...but I should start working on my research and Health Crisis assignment huhu...nah time to go to bed now...hehe anyone who have a tips on how learn to play bass/lead guitar for beginner, please3 help me...Aloha!..have a great day everyone <3

Life


LIFE
Life is a mystery, one that is not easily understood.
Incapable of being seen by mortal man.
Finished in a moment, and a twinkling of the eye.
Easily taken for granted.

Life has a beginning and an end.
Infinite in the spiritual realm,
Finite in the physical realm,
Equal in both at once!

Life is fleeting like the flower of the field; it blooms and fades away.
Incapable of being contained, measured, or valued.
Flexible and changing, yet all the while,
Ever being the same.

Life is always moving forward, it can not back up.
In search of fulfillment, it never seems to rest.
Focusing on what lies ahead,
Excited about the next event.

Life can't be held in our hands,
Its presence can only be experienced.
Finding its meaning and purpose,
Eternally seems to be man's task.

Life is very precious,
It can not be bought.
Free to give itself away,
Encouraged by acts of love.

Life starts the same for all of us,
Innocent and born with nothing.
Facing each new challenge while
Economics are not yet known to us.

Life, likewise, ends the same for all of us!
Intent on reaching our goals, soon death creeps in.
Failure to achieve is always feared, success is desired, but
Ending with nothing that we can take with us.

Life becomes complicated with selfishness and sin.
If the striving for riches and honor are continuous,
Fear and greed soon destroys our peace, and
Entering into contentment becomes illusive.

Life is a mystery, full of tests and trials, always in need of grace.
Inefficient in gauging it's worth and finding meaning, when dependent upon man.
Futile when driven by selfish desires for fame and money, possessions and power.
Enjoying success when centered on God, while exercising faith, love, justice, mercy, and righteousness.

A Day Trip To Singapore

One more week..Its a long holiday, ...huhu i'm stuck at home with nothing to do...but first week holiday kinda awesome.With just SGD40 in my pocket, I went on a day trip with my friend to Singapore...We travel by train. We almost lost our way for the beginning but when we understand the route, it is much easier travel...ahh i hate writing. I thought about just posting a bunch of photo.
 These are some of the photos taken during the trip :
   
Marina Square - tempat pertama yang dilawati



Magnificent architectural design - Sands SkyPark 


Hop On Hop Off bus - HIPO - Worth for city sightseeing to all main attraction in Singapore..mmm rasanya lebih berbaloi bagi yang first time datang Singapore macam kami. Dapat tengok lebih banyak tempat..hehe apa pun, tetap enjoy walau pun hanya sempat melawat beberapa tempat. Next time gonna visit Singapore with HIPO^^
Esplanade - Theatres on the bay ...Alas! no theatres on the bay during our visit. Internet survey: they say its only on weekend :(


Merlion Park on renovation...sepatutnya ada air terpancut dari mulut binatang tu..

 Classic Mini Tram - A ride around Marina Bay
Chinatown Food Street...awal sangat datang, so xnampak meriah & tang lung pun belum bercahaya lagi. Tapi datang awal sikit pun ok juga, tak payah berebut tempat makan :). 
 haha paling sadap yang di tengah-tengah, katak masak ??? UPS forgot already but the main ingredient is frog (dalam claypot).
Souvenir shopping...MURAH!!...Key chain saja la yang saya mampu beli untuk cenderahati. Kawan-kawan saya shopping baju, key chain &...
We are heading back...Singgah sekejap di Botanic Garden sebelum balik ke Woodlands Train Checkpoint.
