As I am writing this blog, the two events seems so far apart. I jammed with Jason and I tried player-versus-player (PvP) first time in my life. Is that the alcohol effect? There seems to be a gap between the two events – one light and one dark one; one with someone real and one with someone on the other side of the Internet.
I remember that the jamming session was fun. We tried some new pieces and I believe that Jason and I have built some kind of vibe together. Even for the unfamiliar songs that I wrote, we were able to jam the pieces decently. Ah, not to forget we did one cover version – Nobody Knows by Tony Rich Project – upon my request. A very special song to me it is. We went to the extend that you can hear Jason’s guitar radiating pain and towards the end of the song, there were tears in my eyes. An emotional piece.
15th jamming session, Jason mentioned that it is indeed one of our milestone. I agree. Looking back, we have been through quite a fair bit. And I still keep the CD recording of each session. It is a reminiscence of our journey – a journey towards our dreams. By that I mean Jason’s dream, Cynthia’s dream, and my dream.
Hope that this New Year – Year of the Chicken – will bring forth new dimension to our band No Eye Candy and hope that by then, my vocal will be adequate for the band.
The server for the online game Dark Age of Camelot was down till 1.30am. My friend and I was anxiously waiting for the server to be up and we were lost, did not know what to do. Addiction.
Tonight, I tried player-versus-player meaning our group remotely teams up with the group from our realm tries to take out the groups from the other two realms. I have got to say as a novice, there was awfully a lot of running around the battlefield. Whenever we see enemies from the other realm – real persons and not just a computer generated monster – we whacked. More often than not, we got whacked, outnumbered, and perish.
Just another aspect of online gaming.
