Going to class and everything.
I have joined classes at my old music school - Dubai Music School and being taught by Miles Perry (who taught me earlier, when I was 10) who is amazing - I mean, the man can play ANYTHING!
Anyway, how did this come about? Well mainly because of this man and how flippin' amazing he is:

His music is AMAZING. Amazing tunes, amazing voice and amazing lyrics.
These days, a lot of my 'songs for the moment' have been his songs. And I have been wanting his 'Any given Thursday' album SO BAD, to have in my car, if ever I am stuck in traffic, to calm me down. Well, mainly because of the song 'Covered in rain' - I mean c'mon, which other nine minute song can kick THAT much ass huh? And that guitar solo *drool*, and his voice - did I mention his voice already? Anyway, so I went to Virgin Mega store at MOE and City Center and both said more or less at all Virgin stores in Dubai, all John Mayer Cd's are sold out - ALL OVER THE UAE! SOLD OUT!
But then the other day, on the way to the gym, I was slacking and stopped by the music store there, and guess what? There was ONE copy left there! AH-HA! - and its now mine, and safely tucked in my car CD player. I even laughed out loud, a smug laugh, so everyone in the store would know I got that last copy. Nobody in that store seemed to care, but I sure did!
Anyway, my point being, other than the fact that John Mayer completely rocks my world, is that I have started playing again. And I can hear improvement and how I am getting better. I just need to keep practicing. I am at about an hour a day these days. Total de-srtesselizer!
And oh! I am going to have a random guitar thought on this blog, whenever I think of something random or something strikes a chord! (Get it? Strikes a chord? I came up with that all by myself! What can I say, creativity is flowing).
Later Xx.

um, i'm pretty sure i've heard the phrase "struck a chord" before! not that i'm belittling your creativity or anything, i'm just saying. :) Love You!
Ah John Mayer! Couldnt agree with you more! He's all that and more! Hopefully once I get back into the swing of things in music school, his songs are definately going to be part of lovely diary you ladies gave me! :)
