Post-’A's

So yeah, as I did mention to someone, it’s a long story how I ended up playing LAN with Fock, Lukas and David Yee. Not bad, 6 bucks for 6 hours of zombie killing madness. That’s how we finished L4D2 in one afternoon. We started the first campaign as total noobs and came out as half-baked-decent FPS players with some semblance of teamwork. Awesome fun guys.

Anyway since I finally dragged my sorry ass down to the random Yamaha shop at Thomson Plaza to get some guitar picks (and pick up a free Starbucks beverage, pun harhar), I decided to celebrate my return to guitar greatness with… a (mostly) fingerstyle song aka Why Georgia by John Mayer.

Major breakthrough today as I finally figured out how to play the second riff in the intro. But noooo, stupid John Mayer and my rusty acoustic guitar strings conspired to make hammering on the 5th fret of the D string with my pinky (since all my other fingers were occupied) nigh impossible, or at least until the skin and tendons of my fingers toughen up after months of guitar neglect.

And as I just discovered, after not using a guitar pick for 3 months, I have lost most of the little guitar-picking skills that I have. Sigh. Oh wells.

Anyway, starting from tomorrow, I’m gonna be so busy for the rest of the year due to church or church-related stuff. The year end has always been a happy period for me :)
