Updating my Blog

Hello ... hello! I am updating my blog today! It's been quiet a while huh? How's my online friends these days? Since my last post, I found two jobs, I became a workaholic, I eat out a lot (still) , we bought a new house with a pool, we rescued a dog from a shelter, we have two guinea pigs and last week, I have a major surgery. So, what's new with y'all?

 

I was actually excited that I had my 6 weeks FMLA. The only not so great about it is, I will have no pay for 6 weeks too. But, I saved for rainy days so; I have budget to buy the MF's top sennheiser hd-280 pro headphones . How's that huh? Anyway, check out my next post, I will share my ordeal while having this surgery. Thanks for stopping by.

#Saxophone #Mouthpiece

Yes, I love my new phone and I have been using it to download music. One of my favorite collections is the single of Chuck Mangione's "Feel So Good". I was watching the video in YouTube and I just love that song. I just wish that there are more artists in this generation that can play saxophone as good as that. I play guitar but, I never tried saxophone. I would like to try to play a saxophone as long as I will have my own beechler alto sax mouthpiece. Can you guess why?

Organizing Stuff

I woke up early today and started to watch TV. I want to be productive today because yesterday was terrible. I have a headache and for the whole day, all I did was lay in bed. That will not happen today. I plan to clean the rooms and organize stuff. I will treat my husband for a crab legs dinner tonight too. Of course, as I organize later on I will be stopping to play my guitar. I bought a new songbook and I am learning to play contemporary songs.

Music Inspires

Music inspires me especially when I'm sad and lonely. I just play my guitar or just messing with the piano using the iPad app. Doing those activities help me forget the things that worries me. I remember when I was in high school, I love to compose songs. The idea of having an instrument that helps me compose a song so easily comes to my mind after watching a musical film. I was a dreamer you know? As I grow older and even though my interest has detoured to another direction, I am still fascinated to own any technical software such as Push.

Soothing Music

It's been a long time since I went to bar-hopping with friends. It was fun and the music was loud! Bar-hopping gradually stopped when I started working. Did I missed it? Not at all! Maybe it was fun when I was with the company of friends and enjoying the night life listening to music played by DJ's but, my outlook about life and fun changed when I graduated college.

When hubby and I went to a cruising trip to Bahamas, one of the activities by the poolside was a live band show with a DJ. We were on the top deck listening the mixed of music played by the DJ on what looked-like a pioneer cdj 2000. Some of the guests started an exuberant dancing as they danced along to the infectious Caribbean music. That moment was fun. The music was soothing to my ear. It was so much different.

If I Could Turn Back the Time

Oh if I could turn back the time, I would love to go back to my college days. I will not change a thing though. My past is a reflection of who I am now so; I am satisfied. I just want to have a quick look in those happy times with my friends, classmates and workplace. Singing as a hobby is part of my growing up and it became an outlet from my disappointments of life which is a good thing you know. I was surrounded with positive people too who enjoyed clean fun, good music, pure friendship and most of all, great camaraderie.

When I was in elementary, my aunt bought an exceptional student guitar for all of us. My cousins and I play the guitar everyday and we sing a lot. I was a church choir member too. I had fun with my friends especially at Christmas time. My college life is the highlight of fun. Almost all members in the Glee Club knows how to play a musical instrument or two so; we just enjoyed singing. If I could turn back the time, I would love to be in the little theatre with glees, practicing a repertoire.

Playing the Musical Instruments

It takes a talent to play the different types of musical instruments. Well, anybody has the potential to learn to play the piano and guitar because both are popular instruments. Most of my Glee Club friends can play those instruments and as for me I know the guitar. No one has interest to play other instruments though. One or two plays the saxophone and drums.

The exciting banjos for instance, only one in my circle knows how to play it. I call him Lolo (Grandpa) Bob and he has friends who played banjos too. When they get together, they make beautiful music together. Honestly, I prefer Lolo Bob plays his guitar than banjos. I can sing a long with it that's why.
