It's not that I don't care, it's just that I'M SO TIRED TODAY!!!11ONEONEONE
Well, got hit flush on the chin by a pitch, and now the cut makes me look like I have bad acne ): BOOHOOOOO. Have not had so much fun in the sun for ages though, and it just feels good again. Been a little sulky in the evenings though, probably because I haven't had a single day's rest this week! Coaching then training then coaching then training then gamegamegame. After the emabrrassing warm-up loss to New Town yesterday, we won all subsequent games. I didn't think I did too shabbily in the first game actually, because except for that throw that I fumbled on the cut play, it was okay... but of course, Coach doesn't see it that way. Anyway, I'm not going to do a playXplay :D No one wants to know anyway! TODAY AFTER THE AC-RI MATCH I WENT TO BRAS BASAH COMPLEX! (That's where Swee Lee's is) Omg haha spent almost 2 hours playing guitar! There's another shop opposite that doesn't have as good guitars, but the playing area is much more comfortable! Settled down with a Godin and started banging away :D Finally the guy was like "So, would you like to buy this guitar?", and obviously he meant that I should STOP playing it. I liked the $700 Godin! Actually Godins sound quite bright and they're quite resonant. The Ovation's a little more mellow, but maybe it's because we haven't changed the strings in months :S I would've got strings if I hadn't run out of money. Saw a John Lennon special edition Epiphone at Swee Lee's! OMG IT'S A BEAUTY :D:D:D:D:D Was $1800 though, wayyyyyy expensive. At least, not within my budget. I'm sure some people out there would be able to afford it, but I'm not one of them.

You know, I really wish my dad would just go down and get the strings. I wish he were more encouraging. When I wanted to start learning, he told me that Georgia would have more talent and that I should just concentrate on singing. Luckily I dismissed it as bullshit, otherwise I probably wouldn't have worked so hard to learn it on my own. Haha when I was in primary school, I always wanted to learn the guitar, but they refused to get me one and said it would be too noisy. then when my sister asked for one in P6, she got her own acoustic. Then, I was like, okay nevermind I play the Ovation and even though it's not mine it's 100000000 times better so ((((: anyway. Then, in Sec 1, she got her own electric. Of course, I'd mentioned a few times before about getting one, but he didn't want to, so I gave up asking. At the time, I didn't think she was necessarily more talented. And I still don't think so. I don't know whether it's because I play a lot more than her, or I bother to learn more than her, but I AM quite a lot better than her now. I still don't have my own guitar. Short, declarative sentences. I DO realise that it all sounds quite juvenile, but I AM TIRED AND PISSED OFF AND WHAT A POST FOR MY 300th ENTRY GAHBAHHUMBUG. I want my own guitar. And I want a good one. I want a standard issue Fender Strat, nothing fancy. I want a bright dreadnought. But of course, it all costs money. It's okay, I'll get them when I grow up! :D

HEAL THE WORLD, MAKE IT A BETTER PLACE!

- we just know that the fight ain't fair.
