Guitar to the Next Level!

Alright folks, I officially announced I'm having guitar lessons from now on, on a Wednesday Evening!

The place was at Haogang, North-east of Singapore. Near to IMH. Yup, it is near one of my friends house(Huiqi). Anyway, I today I went there and boy his house was rather big. When he came to greet me, Jimmy was still as robust and energetic as I have first met him. He then got about to start with my pick holding and working up to asking me to strum the Chord Rules. I can't tell you much coz I am paying for his course and also, I am not masterful at what he taught. I know "masterful" is not a word. Anyways, I have been taught some scales and he showed me what the scales are. They were actually notes in a family key that you can use to SOLO! WOW!

If I master that, I really can solo in the middle of my songs! THATS FANTASTIC!!! Perhaps its time i really got serious about it. I was given homework too, 30 songs I need to submit to him that I know I can play. He does not care if its pop songs, Chinese songs, Christian songs... He is a Christian himself actually. He plays for his Church. Other than that I need to perfect my fingering. I'm going to set aside 2 hours everyday to practice man.

I hope to be able to show him that I can be a great student to him so that we can move along nicely. Hope to extract from him as many techniques as possible. LOL!
