the fun stage; but before that...

we've finally come closer to the fun stage where we would get the urge to pick up a guitar and play a few riffs or just ask whoever is around with an instrument to hit a few chords while we get high in our own world. but before that, it's pay-the-price-before-getting-the-results. in the past, if i don't practise, i just can't play well. now, i've reached the stage where if i don't practise, i can't play at all and for the first time, i'm getting frustrated at my own playing. 1 hour on, i still can't hit clear notes in a row. my target is to finish 17 demisemiquavers in 2 beats at tempo 80 this week and i'm not even halfway there. what kind of monster would play hemidemisemiquavers? this is the stage where everything is going to be dry. really dry. just technical playing. thank goodness we're gonna deal with some theories. for the first time, i'm looking forward to more theories. it's really a pain but it is like an oasis when you are dealing with a desert-dry finger speed practice. i can totally feel my vocal cords all prepared to sound out some explicit words. all i need to do is to run air out my mouth and police would come knocking at my door for harassment using obscene languages. but i think i'm pretty safe because i don't know any obscene words. yah right, as if you'd believe.
