Well today was boring, still getting away with wearing my own clothes instead of this stupid dress code we have at our school. We're in year 12 and we STILL have to come to school in what the teachers say.
Apart from getting a little pissed off at the school as many people do I started to think about my college interview that should be coming up soon 'If I ever hear from them again' So the past few days I've been thinking about songs that I can learn that show off my capabilities and also have a lot of techniques and 1 that caught my attention was a song that I attempted not so long back 'and inevitably failed at'.
Trashed and Scattered by U.S. rockers Avenged Sevenfold (Possibly the greatest band ever and 1 of my all time favorites). As soon as I started learning the fast paced intro all of my fears came back but I pressed on redoing sections over and over again until they were stuck in my head never to escape. After completing half of the song I started to feel a lot more confident not just with the song but with my playing in general and as I soldiered on the song just seemed to get easier to play and more enjoyable.
I guess what I'm trying to get at with this short post is that when you put your mind to it and you ACTUALLY try your very best you can achieve more than you first thought. Also DON'T worry about feeling a bit selfish when you're trying to get IMPORTANT things done, whoever said other people come first is WRONG (Just think about that last bit before jumping to conclusions OK)
