my first time/street theater

Well, I have a blog.
Its like, a public diary. Do we really want the world to know every single thing about what's going in your life?
Well, I DO..
Well, not everything.
I will share memories, experiences, first times, last times, shocking moments. Everything I feel like writing.
Well, now I feel like writing about yesterday.

29th June 2008, Sunday, One Borneo Hyper mall.
STREET THEATER

Vic(great guitarist/'best friend'), Jason(another great finger stylist/ dunno if he's my Best friend, but he's definitely a friend) and I have been practicing our asses off for this day.
Practices every night for that whole week. I even skipped school on Friday for practice.
The De Notes (me music school. totally rocks!) environment of course made it comfortable for us. We didn't feel nervous or anything, UNTIL THE TIME CAME.
So, Sunday. Woke up so damn NERVOUS. Mom, once again put on her cape to become SuperMom and did me up quickly as time was not on our side.
Arrived at De Notes at about 11 am. Kevin (music teacher) sent Vic and Jason to 1 Borneo first with all the equipment to set up. And when Kev came back to pick up me and Eloise (another great singer/musician) my nerves were starting to get to me.
Well, anyways, we reached. last minutes sound check. Some Hong Kong superstarts went on stage first to promote their show later that day. Then IT WAS TIME. IT WAS OUR TURN.
Last minute hugs with friends before going on stage.
First, car horn solo by Shaun.
Second, Jason comes in with the primary chords to Kiss Me by Sixpence None The Richer.
Third, Vic goes on with the same chords for four bars.
Then they give me their signal and I come out from the back and go in with 'Kiss me out of the bearded barley'. Well, cuz, DUH. Those are the lyrics.
After that song, We did 'What A Wonderful World'. Sweet song right? We did a reggae version.
Then, called Eloise on stage and we did a duet. "I'm Yours" by Jason Mraz. Vic did a good solo in between verses. hehehehhe

She did one more song on her own after that.
Overall, I thought we did OOOKKKKAAAAYYY....
Wasn't GREAT! but, it was good.
But, my parents missed the performance. Eloise parents missed the performance. Vic's parents didn't come. And well, I don't think Jason's parents came either. But my mom and Bro were late as were Eloise's.
Well, I don't really know what else I can say about that day. I loved the expirence. I Love the people I did it with. I love the people that came to see us (THANKS CAMMY!) and I Love going to De Notes and the people there (xD LOL)

I guess this first entry for my first blog will be about that day and how I feel about how MUSIC. How it's so important in my life. And about the people I wanna forever surround myself with.

MUSIC IS MY LIFE
