Guitar experience

So I was in Stat Mart today when I saw they sold guitar strings. Decided to change the strings then, well like Timothy (Mat's bro) said my (brother's) guitar string's are rusty. So bought a set of strings for RM4.50.
So of course I didn't bertindak melulu. Instead I got help from a pro:Siew Tong. So here was how it went.

Me: How to change guitar string?
Siew Tong: Your guitar acoustic or classical?
Me: Huh? Got difference meh?
Siew Tong:Acoustic is with 6 steel strings while clasiccal is with 3 nylon and 3 steel.
Me: Oh. Acoustic one.
Siew Tong:Loosen the strings 1st
Me: *starts loosening the first string*
Siew Tong:Pull out the pin
Me: *struggles with the pin*
Siew Tong:Put in the new one at the bridge first
Me: *sticks the wire into the hole and tries to plug the pin back*
Siew Tong:Then only you put in into the machine head. Leave some to ease the tension when you tighten it.
Me: *starts tightening screw slowly*
I was actually afraid the pin might give way and the wire would jump up on me.
Siew Tong:Cut the excess. Don't tune first. Finish all only tune.
Me: Okay. *searches for a cutter*
I did the first string. I was so happy. (literally). So I started with the second string. I did the same thing. I loosen the screw, loosen the strings, and started fidgeting with the pin. And then the worst expected thing happened. The pin

broke!

The head gave way and the body got stuck inside the hole; with the string still stuck inside! I tried and tried and tried to get the half body out and after several unsuccesful attempts, I got the broken body out.A view of the holes.I really have to go to Ebony tomorrow and find the spare parts. If not, I won't have a guitar to practice on..See? The strings are all nice and shiny already. Except for the empty hole.

Sigh

Work day 1

Phew. Its almost 9 now and I've just taken my dinner. Had work today. It's a part time job. Basically its data entry. Type till my fingers all numb ad, and yet still can't compete with the other's speed. Freaking tired now. Wanna do less typing and more gaming. Chiaos..

Passed

So I passed my driving test today=] Not with flying colours tho, but just enough to make it through. Saw Weng Rock in the morning also. He had to repeat his 'jalan raya' part. I don;t think he saw me tho. So the license came just in time. Right before CNY. Now I'll have a chance to steal my brother's car..nyeknyek..you better watch out.

Chinese New Year is well in a week or two. As usual, I don't do much preparation. No painting the house red or fancr dresses(like as if I wore dresses). Just that I actually hope to spend a day or two longer in Ipoh this year, to meet with those NS trainees before I vanish off. Hopefully will have the chance to. sigh

Have to sigh off now. Time on computer's up..


I hate the way my heart beats when I think of you. Have to find a way to stop it..

4th Feb

Well time pass so quickly. Sigh. Tomorrow's my driving test. Dunno what to expect. The trial round that I went for was bad. The fella say I 'brek secara mengejut' and 'tiada kelancaran gear'. sighsighsighsigh. Only can hope for the best. Went back to school today to train the GB marchers. And they were bad. Real bad. Still stuck at simple drill. Hopefully yinyin will be able to make the best out of it. I'm surprised teachers like Puan Lin still remembers me, although she thought me only in form 3. And my guitar playing is way out these days. Bleh. Stupid shorty fingers. Have to put extra time into it. Hopefully I'll be able to write out and play the song playing in my head these days. So much for the update. Nothing but mundane and boring life these days..

p/s will I be able to see you when you break from NS?

Filling in time

Been dabbling with song writing. Bleh. Didn't know I was that bad. I seriously suck in almost everything I start. Life, relationships, you name it and mostly all are failures. Gah. Maybe something personal will help? Will try something else next time. Forgive and forget?

You had better delete the photo before I slice your head off! As long as the photo is there, I'll continue ignoring you!
