Ahh, my life is now complete after feeling the wrath of the 24 hour banstick. HI GUYS.
To the mods, I only have one thing to say:
Anyway, so this post isn't considered SPAM, I thought I'd tell you all of the wierd day that was Friday.
I didn't have an exam at all, so I was asked to play guitar for a druming friend for his HSC, along with two other guys from his band (guitarist/screamer). Now our friend goes to a Private Catholic school. It must be very wierd for a private catholic school to see 3 guys walking around their school with metal tshirts and large amounts of musical equipment, because every single person stared at us. EVERY SINGLE PERSON. 'Twas extremely wierd. To further compund the situation, we got told that we should be able to practise for roughly 45minutes AT LEAST, however this number quickly got whittled down to somewhere in the region of 15 minutes. So here we are, 4 guys that have never played the song together before getting 15 minutes to practice for a HSC Half Yearly practical exam. SWEET. We managed to get through the song 3 times before we had to turn down at the end of lunch. Remember what I said about the school being very conservative? (well, I implied it at least) Imagine the music teacher coming to hear us playing very loud and playing quite a heavy song, namely I Killed The Prom Queen's Sharks In Your Mouth. By the time the teacher was happy with the volume, the drummer was barely hitting the kit and we had turned our amps down from 7 to 2. Sweet.
Funy thing is though, we nailed the performance, even though we were headbanging and jumping around like lunatics (or normally for a metal act). According to the drummer, the teacher was impressed which is always a good thing for a metal act, considering it is a lot different to anything most music teachers we know.
So yeah, that was the story of my day yesterday. Quite fun indeed.

1 exam down only 4 to go! Totally screwed up my english paper 1 exam. Section one i was good with, section 2 i prolly coulda written more if i had more time and it was a stupid letter that had to be triggered memory but still incorporate a physical journey. Section 3 was a stupid essay that i didnt have time to finish so i just quickly wrote some points on other things i was gunna tlak about hopefully that helps my mark a bit. It didnt help that i couldnt stop sneezing coz of stupid hayfever. Funny how the farmers start harvesting when i have exams.
You more than likely got the same exam paper as us. We got the same question.
