Of Electric Guitars and a Mad Brother
Today...the last day that I'll be in Singapore..Tomorrow noon i will be flying off to Taiwan..Which is pretty cool coz i havent been back for a year or so...a pretty long period of time indeed...cant wait to see my friends and breath the air again...(Not really looking forward to meeting the relatives though but what the hell..)But before that,since yesterday was utterly ruined..ive decided to drop by Barn's house for a visit..Before that i went to Bernice's house to get my earrings..and dont worry they are not for me..;)Well she came down half asleep and in her cedar PE T-shirt..and obviously she was still in a dream..coz she gave me the wrong change...but its alright..then i met Samuel and Barn...and we were forced to Bishan to carry a Bass guitar and an electronic drumset back...All thanks to Barn who made us his slave..Actually i didnt really mind..i purposely grumbled about it..And sam was grumbling about himself being hungry and needed food desperately..so we arrived at Charmaine's house and Sam had his lunch there..Its kinda weird to have lunch at a stranger's house though...but nvm..i ate before that anyway..so i started playing with the dogs..a Maltese and the other...im not sure bout the breed but its that dog from Lassie..Pretty awesome dog..though a little dead...sitting there staring into nothingness.the Maltese was hyper active..hopping around wagging its tail and stood on its hind legs..literally waved its front paws at me and Samuel..it was a pretty interesting sight so me and gang stayed a little longer to play with the dogs with Charmaine's sister..Charmaine was soft spoken really..or simple shy...we didnt talk to her at all..or at least i didnt..in fact i didnt realise that she was Charmaine until Barn called out to her...Anywayz,so carried the drumset and Bass guitar all the way back to Barn's house...and he's right..it was in a mess..a big huge mess indeed..especially his kitchen,livingroom,even his own room was in a big mess..as if a tornado swept past his house and his house in a whreck..it was really that bad..He's room is not the worst ive seen anyway...Alvin Tan's room is wayy worst..with the dim lights and the small room...i actually felt uncomfortable in his room really..Anywayz,Barney has this crazy brother who cant stop talking really..and he's always laughing at nothing...Me and Sam played PS with him and because i wasnt very good at video gaming..i lost a couple of times..Was pretty embarrasing but hey...it was fun anyway...i took Barn's 1700 dollars electric guitar and played with it...Mind you,this is the first time ive touched a electric guitar..pretty awesome..though really heavy and stuff..but it's pretty easy to play...like what mom said..a light stroke and the sound will be very loud and prominent..Anyway Barn taught me some basics to electric guitar and some tricks..hahaa..it was pretty fun..but i think it'll be awhile before i pick up an electric guitar..Weird that everybody's leaving Singapore today and tomorrow...Barn's brother Paul left for Japan this afternoon for some Band performance..Rachel is leaving for Shanghai later during the wee hours..Bernice will be leaving at 6am tomorrow morning and i will be leaving at 1pm...hahaa..i guess everyone just cant stay in this country anymore..Alright..i shall start burning some CDs and packing for tomorrow..Hey Taiwan..here i come..Farewell my friends..;)
