Learnt alot over the weekend through my serving and throughout my activities in church. Serving was great all in all, except for some big mistakes nearing the end, however, I just treat it as a learning experience. Even though it really brought the worship to quite a low point.

I for one, learnt a new way to transpose songs, by playing the 4th, 5th and then 1st.

There's this unwritten rule that people don't criticise the worship team to me... people always go 'not bad lah' or 'okay lor', as if I don't already know that it was really a big cock-up. hahah. like some consolation. I know they just want to encourage us, but sometimes some constructive criticism could help. Appreciate my mentor's feedback yesterday.

Come on! Go ahead and criticise me! That's the only way I can learn faster.

Haven't been blogging for quite some time. Was very inspired by the professional kind of worship put up by our music ministries. Sometimes I feel like a little kid going 'wow' when watching them play. It's like all the 'tu2 di4' watching their masters play. Moses is there. Joshua is there. Pinjun is there. There's just so much dynamism, so much teamwork, so much little fills and attacks that make the music good. And what's important is that they all work for a common purpose, that is to bring our church worship to a new level. Which is something that we've always been trying to do.

I wonder when we, the youths, will reach their level, or even surpass them. I guess we'll be praying hard to be good worshippers/musicians, to bring ground-breaking worship to peopel. If that's God's will, I sure he will bring us there.

Even so, I believe I still need to do something to help god bring me there. So I'm devoting at least half an hour reading up on theory and practicing daily.

Its pretty obvious where my interests lay, and I think its really a 180 turn from where I was heading 9 months ago. And its for the better, so praise god!
