w/ The Moore-Berlin family.. (My 1st American Purchase / 777) ^^

Bak at Tita Jinky's place ^^ ..

Nung Thursday, uncle dave picked me up.. i slept over at Tita Norie's.. i was paid $20 (ka-ching! XD ..) :> ..to babysit becca for a day cuz james was supposedly gonna go to a party (which was supposed to be from 8am till 11pm! hardcore ey? XD..) :P , scheduled Friday...

Ang nangyari, yung host nung party na un (friend ni James, Mark ang pangalan) got in trouble with his parents so nacancel ung party.. and on top of that, uncle dave was gonna be home too so i didn't have to go and babysit becca anymore :D.. Uncle Dave asked me if i wanted to go over at their place anyway.. so i said 'sure y not' .. ^^

So thursday night andun n aq.. friday, basically, nasa bahay lng nila aq.. time seemed to fly that day.. ilang beses aq nagulat na pagtingin ku sa tym, ilang oras na ang dumaan XD ^^

in the morning, i just fixed up my multiply, changed the template and stuff lyk that.. after that, i just did random stuf, lyk look up amplifiers, guitar strings, youtube, friendster, check my blog, gibson forums, etc.. :D .. tpos, it was about mga 1 or a little over 1, so kumain n aq..

after eating, i just started playing guitar and found myself just playing guitar the whole day till lyk mga 5 or 6 XD .. :)) .. nung bandang 6 na, me james and becca started playing on the wii.. so aun.. weee XD :P.. we played mario party 8..

then, we had dinner, (where after a little discussion, i decided to stay for another night ) :D .. then we played a little more, then, bak to kanya kanyang pwesto doing each other's stuf XD haha ^^.. i went bak to playing guitar, and doing other stuf on the computer.. i also skyped mom and dad and talked with them a little.. tpos i started checking out some youtube videos that they recommended me to check out..

so while checking these videos out (search chatreeo on youtube ^^ ;) ..) i stumbled upon a video of a guy named edgar cruz.. he plays solo guitar..

ding ding ding ding! *flash light above my head!* XD haha :P .. ngaun ku lang nalaman na SOLO GUITAR pala ung tawag sa mga ginagawa kong plucking versions ng mga kanta where i also play out the voice or the lyrics of the song, e.g. sa TULOG NA, FRIEND OF MINE, NO ORDINARY LOVE, and some church songs hehe.. un pala un XD

nyweiz this video of this edgar cruz guy was cool.. he made up a solo guitar piece for queen's bohemian rhapsody and crazy little thing called love XD .. actually it's kinda cool :> .. you guys should check it out..

here are the links for those videos:

bohemian rhapsody: http://youtube.com/watch?v=pZ9jrBg4Lwc
crazy little thing called love: http://youtube.com/watch?v=W3vppeJcsd0

so aun.. i tried out studying the bohemian rhapsody.. im still in the process but i can play some of it already :D ^^

slept around 1:30 XD , woke up around 9:30 tpos had breakfast and started studying the bohemian rhapsody solo guitar piece agen.. la nmn maxado nangyari in the morning till tita norie told us that we were gonna go out.. yay! XD ^^

we left the house around 1 and went bowling ^^ .. we played 3 games..

i won the first (hehe chamba XD ..) with 100 points which is my all time high score i believe XD
second game, uncle dave won with 108 .. i was 2nd with 98..
then, third game, tita norie super nanny won with 112! hehe ^^ .. i was 2nd with 98 agen XD

so today, 07/07/07, the 7th day of the 7th month of this year '07, i made my bowling all time high score XD


after bowling, at mga 4, we ate at a golden corral.. it's an american buffet place.. so aun.. i ate a lot XD ndi n nga aq nagdinner e XD haha ^^ ..

after that, we went to best buy, which guess what, IS NEXT TO THE GUITAR CENTER!!! SUPER YAY! XD .. so we went to best buy where i got to check out something for me to transfer pictures from my celphone to the computer.. i didn't exactly find what i was looking for, which was a USB cable for my N73 (thanks dad ^^ ..), but instead i found a bluetooth USB plug which you can plug into your computer allowing you to bluetooth your stuff into the pc.. it's 30 dollars so i didnt buy it XD ill eventually buy it though.. when i start working XD :> ^^

so after best buy... *drum roll please* XD .. we went to the guitar center!! weeee XD xenxa na.. hehe :D .. bringing me to the guitar center is like bringing a kid to a playground or an arcade XD so aun.. salivation here we come haha XD

i got to ask about the guitar im looking at (the Gibson SG Supreme Midnight Burst ) and the guy there said they didn't have any supremes there at the moment.. but umm, he was a nice guy and so he askd for my number and said he'll look into it and give me call if he can find one for me in town ^^

it's fun at the guitar center cuz u can just get any guitar on display, bring it to their amplifiers that are also on display and just plug em up and try em out without even having to ask for a sales person to do so ^^ .. so aun..

today.. 07/07/07, the 7th day of the 7th month of this year '07,i got to touch and play for the first time in my life, a Gibson SG ^^ ..

so aun, after looking around and trying the guitars there (.. :D ..) , i looked for some guitar strings for my Seagull.. sakto nga e cuz yesterday i looked up on it and checked out the site of J.D'Addario and looked up the set of strings i want for my guitar.. after researching, i chose the EXP17 Medium which is a phosphor bronze set of strings for $13.. (so for anyone out there who wants a real nice set of strings on their guitar, i recommend D'Adarrio to ya.. they're really great.. if u check out their site, there are so many artists, guitarists, and bands who use D'Adarrio strings.. it might be expensive but it's worth every penny and i know meron dyan sa pinas :> ;) ..)

so also today, 07/07/07, the 7th day of the 7th month of this year '07, i made my 1st American purchase ^^ ..

i used my own money for it.. :D

i asked them how much it is to service my guitar and have it restringed, they said it's $18.. so sabi ko, woah man! wag n lng! aq n lng gagawa! .. i mean, with $18, i can buy another set of strings! XD :D ^^

so after that, we went home na.. and gues what, i immediately sprang into action and started changing my strings! XD atat e noh? XD :D :P

so lastly for today XD , 07/07/07, the 7th day of the 7th month of this year '07, i changed the strings of my guitar on my own all by myself for the 1st time! XD :D ..

xenxa na kng medyo parang big deal for me.. i never did it for myself kc in the past e.. ive always had it serviced at where i bought the strings from.. :D

so un.. i think i did a pretty nice job ^^ .. i sure aint gonna pay 18 dollars for someone to do it for me! XD so next tym, aq na uli gagawa :> ;)

after that, tita jinky, picked me up lrdy and i went bak here to her place..
