Today was pretty uneventful. I was mostly doing chem revision for the entire day. Only really covered about 3 chapters. Not very productive. I kept getting distracted with song-writing. I can't help it! When a tune comes into my head and inspiration hits for possible lyrics I have to drop everything and pick up my guitar. Quickly pen down the lyrics and jam with my guitar, then record it down in Garage Band so I don't forgot what I've just written. If I don't drop everything, whatever I've just thought of would be lost and the inspiration expired. Sigh. Music is both a blessing and a curse.
Anyways, I managed to pen down another verse and pre-chorus to a song I've been working on for the past week. I named it "Weekend Girl". Close dude friends I've been talking to would be able to accurately guess the inspiration behind that song. Been talking about it for most of the past week. Haha:) I only need to wrap up the song up with a verse and a nice outro. Need more material to finish writing this song. Its a work in progress. Gotta see what happens this weekend I guess. I also managed to write the first half of a new song that came to me in the afternoon. This one I tentatively named "Uncertainty". The main idea behind it was how we can never be a 100% sure about the choices and decisions we make in life and how "Uncertainty" can be a real pain in the ass when we hit forks in the road of life. Still waiting to be inspired to write the other parts of the song:)
Have I mentioned that I love song-writing? So much that I'm almost addicted to it? It was one of the reasons why I stopped blogging. Whenever I felt emo or had something I wanted to get out of me I'd pick up my guitar and use those emotions to write a song. They might not all be great songs but at least they help to release cranial pressure, and I get a sense of achievement after using those emotions to create something. Not so emo when I'm done:) To me, song-writing is like story telling. It most of the time incorporates a little poetry and music. Its basically like singing a poem, and its great fun and sometimes frustrating to find words that rhyme or to think of interesting tunes.
I probably should get back to chem:( Also got math tuition tomorrow morning. Sigh. Back to prelim revision.
Maybe i'll post up the lyrics of my songs when I complete them. Digitize them so they'll live forever! Haha:)
I am,
