new job but still the same ol pay
well, got a new job recently, it was recommended by one of my friend and former coursemate. at least the process of getting a new job was quite easy similiar to the previous job. and better still i never need to search for the newspaper. unfortunately i needed to relearn a software (Freehand, that is). i found that it was just not my type of software to use, maybe i'm used to softwares from Adobe, ie Illustrator, Photoshop, In-design. it's more user friendly.
jammed yesterday, some of the old songs sounded quite ok. i really liked the cover song from the beatles "don't let me down". it sounded so peaceful, and intimate and the mood from quite different from the previous and other songs that we had done. we rehearse some new songs and old songs and even a machine-gun version of "resurrection". and we planned to play gig at shelley's. hmm...i wasnt sure for some songs. my part wasnt ready yet. and like dave said, i'm a bit of a chicken on stage. i really need to face my own fear.
to tell the truth, the band wasnt progressing much these days because of the absense of the bassist. we really need the bassist to play as a band. eventhough, dave can play the bass, his playing was very much guitar-like. one of the most important aspect of bass playing is groove. and we really need to work on the bass part together.

well i also hope it will a better one, but according to waikuan, the boss is quite ok although the pay was like last time. well al least i dont need to work till late nights. that's, for me is an important aspect of it. so, with that spare time, i hope i'll be able to make some progress with the band, if we can make it hopefully it can generate some additional income.
