It was a good day for me. Went to church for the morning service at 9:30 AM. The weather was fine, blue skies with cirrus clouds painted on it. The temperature was cold and it was so windy yet it was a sunny. I loved the sermon. It was about how a child of God, a christian should live his life, being an imitator of God. The sermon was based on Ephesians 5:1-17. Go read :) Next time, i will post my reflections about the sermon, I feel sorry I can't explain those and I don't want to sound like a religious leader. But one thing's for sure, I want to be blessed, be guided and be a better person. I don't want to look back, be sad, confused and depressed anymore. I believe that I am forgiven, past, present and future. Never perfect, but perfectly forgiven.
Came afternoon, my band Rotschreck had our first rehearsal. Surprisingly, everyone was on time :) Most of the time, some members came in late and I am no exception to that. We jammed some cover songs from Dir en Grey and our first composition that I have made called "Isolation". It was good, the sound was still kind of messy but we managed to jam the music completely. Vocal lines are not very much there yet but Luci, our vocalist is working on his melody lines. It was good for the first jam and I am really looking forward for the final arrangement of the song and I am very much on fire to keep our band rolling. After the rehearsal, we went to Jun's place (our bassist) somewhere in Pasay. We had a few drinks, good food, shared our visions for the band, opinions on songwriting and more personal stuff. I decided to go home the next day, Monday. When I came home, I quickly took a bath, and went to West Ave to meet with my former officemates for we had a scheduled meeting about our unpaid 13th month and separation pay. I hate legal matters because it's such a hassle. We have decided to file a case against our employers and I think the next steps are to be done a week after. I'd rather find a new job, that's my plan. And tonight, a friend of mine, Jorel (bandmate guitarist in G4) from People Support, Ayala, Makati City, told me that my resume has been submitted already to the HR office. He had already shown it to his supervisor and I think he was interested in getting me. I hope everything goes fine and I hope to get interviewed, and get that job immediately.
Some thoughts...
When I was at Jun's place, my ex-GF texted me. I chose not to reply. Not because I did not want to but because I have to keep my word. She knows what it is. But I do really miss her and my feelings for her are still intact. Maybe someday, i'll be the one to contact her.
Happy new year to all. It's the start of the new year again and with it new hopes created and new dreams are being made. As for me, I also wanted to start the new year right just like the others. For now, I'm working on writing and recording all the pending music I have inside my head for my band Rotschrech and some solo stuff. I wanted to play more of my material now rather than do other peoples music. There is really nothing wrong about it, maybe I just got tired of it already. Also, I wanted to express and reveal myself more in playing my own rather that show people what my influences are by doing covers. I'm also looking for a new job as of now. There have been offers for me but I didn't applied for those because I don't want the position/type of job they gave me. Call me choosy but I would rather practice the profession I know I am good at!!!
Well. 2008 was a good year for me, I had a good job, had a lot of gimmicks with friends, played a lot of gigs, drank a lot of beer( though i don't have that beer belly, i hate that hahah!!!), had a good partner in crime and all those other good things. It is a meaningful year for me. I hope 2009 would be better though. I hope it would be for you too. :)
