WEDNESDAY - 03.10.12

I shall not give my posts from now onwards a title. Because i'm running out of ideas. Haha.


So as you all know after reading the last post, that i broke the iPhone. Yes. So i met Keith today to get the iPhone repaired. I thought that all you needed to do was to fix the LCD screen which was not the case apparently. I brought the poorly brokened iPhone to a shop and they told me straight up that the phone needs a new LCD screen. Yes, the guy who told me that was pretty fierce and i'm never going back to that shop again. I brought the phone to Keith's house and he tried his best to fix it, but we still failed. We then brought it again to another shop that was near to the end of the row of shops at Bendemeer Mall. I really like that shop because this shop charges only $48 to fix the LCD screen when the rest said it was around $70. Total rip off. I gave the iPhone to the stall owner and Keith and i headed off to our individual A Capella groups. 

I met Shynn first and i thought her her alternating solo parts for Price Tag. She learnt it pretty well actually, and pretty fast. Hah. Kellie and Amanda had TCP camp and Amanda couldn't make it since she was dead tired. Jesmine could only make it at night and Phoebe was sick. Kellie manage to come even though she was slightly less tired than Amanda, but still tired. When Joe came, he settled Queen A first, and so we had time to practice in the store room. Kellie was really tired so we let her sleep in a little more before Joe called us in. 

Now, he had us change the rhythm for If I Ain't Got You's pre-choruses and we were pretty confused at first but at least Joe gave us time to practice those swings and also, he wanted us to figure out how to make the backings and the bass sound as though we are a piano that Alicia is playing. Oh.. My gosh. If you had ever listen to Alicia play the piano for If I Ain't Got You for the verse, it's just crazy. Like there are jumps at times but then there are those crazy bang bang moments. Haha. That alone got me brains fried. Yes, i just said me brains. Anyways, we went back into the store room and i kinda figured out the simpler way of the piano backings which was really jumpy and that won't fit in the pre-chorus. Ah damn it! I'm just spouting rubbish now. I'd say it was kinda a good thing that Joe didn't call us back to have us show what we did, cause we weren't able to catch the rhythm and all that. Damn you Alicia and your awesomeness >u< 

I was dead tired after practice and am still pretty worried about the iPhone. Hope my iPhone's alright. Will be collecting it tomorrow! Hopefully~
