Blogging from work right now. I'm beginning to feel the "no-life"-ness in working.
A typical working day goes like this: 7am - Wake up, 9am - start work, 6pm - go home, 7:30pm - reach home, 8:30pm - finish dinner, 9:30pm - send my gal home, 10pm - hang, 11pm - time to do own stuff, 12pm - sleep.
Yea i only have 1 hr each day to really do my own stuff. I could sleep later, but it equates to less sleep time. And less sleep time = zombie for the nxt day.
I wonder how pple can find the energy to even jam and gig after work. I dun even have time to practise!
Probably it's just purely time management, probably i shld prioritize my activities.
Tt being said, i have a new song coming up. Largely influenced by the playing of Paul Gilbert. It's still in the works, tho i have a pretty good idea of how i wanted it to be. Sometimes shitting in the toilet can just give u the biggest inspiration u've ever had.
Anyways, Paul Gilbert is a great guitarist. Any self-deserving musician shld give him a good listen, not really for the shredding skills, but for the clean-ness of his picking, and his DYNAMICS. Yea after watching his videos and listening to his songs, i got a better idea of dynamics, which were oh-so lacking in most of my compositions. Yup dynamics really bring out the music in your playing and u will sound less like a midi track.
And Paul Gilbert is a funny, honest man. No airs, no arrogance, just mean guitar playing with funny lyrics. You guys shld just visit his self-designed webpage, to see how simple a man this world-class guitarist is.

With less time to do my things, i feel tt i appreciate them more. Yes, humans are sluts. The less u have of one thing, the more u want it. Probably, this is why i feel a sudden urge to play lots and lots of guitar. But i just dun have the time right now. This can translate to other aspects of your life. Like u and your girlfriend/boyfriend, ur friends, ur parents, ur car.. whatever man.
Maybe the only way to realize the value of something, is to lose it first. But, tt will be too late by then.
What an irony of life.
