Shu surprised me with this today
This is a Fender Bullet Stratocaster Hard Tail and an Orange 12 watts amplifier
I haven't been playing with the electric guitar for so long. It's a bit strange but the C neck is so ergonomic for my liking. It's way lighter than my LTD Viper 50 which was my very first electric guitar. All my life, all the jamming sessions and gigs, I had always been with my LTD. This is new feel. I like it. I should probably see if Rashid still has my Mega Distortion pedal 😒
Thank you, baby!

Apocalyptica Live Concert May 14th 2020
I waited for this since their last live posting........ And then, they played Hope and it brings me back to a place where I used to roam alone in my thoughts...... ❤️

So we made it to my parents house today.....
Shu said he wanted to cook and bring food over so that we can all eat together. It's been over 2 months since we've actually visited any family at all. It wasn't everyone coz Wani and Simon and the kids were not there and my aunt was at Wani's house. It was good that it wasn't crowded but it was not everyone. Still keeping our social Distancing in check. Shu and I jammed a little. Showed my dad the song we've been practicing throughout the quarantine. It was fun. My brothers had a good laugh over some silly jokes my parents could never understand.
Eeno is my younger brother but he looks like he's older than me.
I have played this particular semi acoustic guitar since I could remember ever playing guitar.
Food. The ones that Shu cooked and the ones my mom cooked and some that she bought.

Late check-in
Better late than never........
Quarantine has been strange. I know that I had always been the one with zero social life and even though my sister thinks I'm gonna come out of this just as myself, I still get a little crazy from time to time.
Just before the quarantine went official,Shu went on this shopping spree over on Zalora and got me a whole lot of clothes......a whole lot......of clothes........
I was doing some scrapbooking which was ok I guess.......managed to learn origami........learned to bake a cake.......Oh,I picked up on working out. I was working out every single day for about a week or two.....then,I worked out with a regular schedule........It gets really addictive.........I lost some weight coz I was doing the eat less,workout more thing. I still do........it's very typical of me to not feed myself well.........
Anywho, I had a hard time keeping up with the kids' school work schedule. Yusuf has classes everyday. He has an actual schedule like for homeschooling on Google Classroom. The other two babies have classes (more like Zoom Meetings) twice a week. I felt like a Personal Assistant for a while coz I had to make sure Safiyya and Ali Imran joined the meetings in time. I sometimes fail because I forget that some classes begin earlier and later.........
Our house immediately turned into a home office. There is an actual work printer with A4 papers on standby and my gaming laptop becomes the work computer. It's so weird. It's such a mess which I am not used to.
On a more positive note,I have learned to propagate my plants and somehow I think I might have managed to save my birthday Monstera plant from dying of rotten roots. This also means that I made a mess out on the balcony. At least my plants are alive and taken care of.
The beginning of this year was hectic. I was learning to be an adult parent and I was slowly re-learning how to socialize with other human beings.It's strange because I really thought I had to put in a lot of effort. Turns out,I'm quite the Capybara of the urban area ;) Some of the teachers did ask who I was coz Shu had always been the contact parent for the kids and I was non-existent.
I started driving again. Yes, I did. It's natural and scary. People scare me. Especially those behind the wheels. So,my routine would be waking up super early to make sure Yusuf gets to school on time. At the same time,I had to make sure Ali Imran was up and ready. Safiyya puts up a fight with me every single morning so she usually goes to school later.
The nice thing about this routine is that I usually get to have breakfast with Shu. Just the two of us. It's like a short date that occurs every morning. And we both actually have breakfast which is nice.
After that,we'd just go around with one car and I'd pack my brain dumping notebook and my laptop and I'd crash at his office until it's time to get the babies from school and have lunch.
When I get home,usually I'd make sure the kids get their afternoon naps (especially Safiyya coz she'd get cranky) Yusuf only comes home at 4pm. My evening routine would be to make sure Yusuf's school bag is packed for the next day. Ready everyone's school uniforms. Do the necessary laundry or whatever. Oh yeah,make sure their pencils are all sharpened and all their school supplies are there.
I am pretty sure Safiyya is not going to want to go back to school after all this. Shu and I are planning to take her out anyways. Yusuf and Ali Imran miss their school and friends. They miss going swimming and going to toy stores. Shu is enjoying his work life at home. I just want everyone to be safe.

This seems to be my song of the day today
You know I adore you
I'm crazier for you
Then I was at sixteen
Lost in a film scene
Waving homecoming queens
Marching band playing
I'm lost in the lights
I'm crazier for you
Then I was at sixteen
Lost in a film scene
Waving homecoming queens
Marching band playing
I'm lost in the lights
American glory
Faded before me
Now I'm feeling hopeless
Ripped up my prom dress
Running through rose thorns
I saw the scoreboard
And ran for my life
Faded before me
Now I'm feeling hopeless
Ripped up my prom dress
Running through rose thorns
I saw the scoreboard
And ran for my life
Ah, ah, ah
No cameras catch my pageant smile
I counted days, I counted miles
To see you there
To see you there
It's been a long time coming but
No cameras catch my pageant smile
I counted days, I counted miles
To see you there
To see you there
It's been a long time coming but
It's you and me
That's my whole world
They whisper in the hallway, "she's a bad, bad girl" (okay!)
The whole school is rolling fake dice
You play stupid games, you win stupid prizes
It's you and me
There's nothing like this
Miss Americana and The Heartbreak Prince (okay!)
We're so sad, we paint the town blue
Voted most likely to run away
With you
That's my whole world
They whisper in the hallway, "she's a bad, bad girl" (okay!)
The whole school is rolling fake dice
You play stupid games, you win stupid prizes
It's you and me
There's nothing like this
Miss Americana and The Heartbreak Prince (okay!)
We're so sad, we paint the town blue
Voted most likely to run away
With you
My team is losing
Battered and bruising
I see the high fives
Between the bad guys
Leave with my head hung
You are the only one
Who seems to care
Battered and bruising
I see the high fives
Between the bad guys
Leave with my head hung
You are the only one
Who seems to care
American stories
Burning before me
I'm feeling helpless
The damsels are depressed
Boys will be boys, then
Where are the wise men?
Darling, I'm scared
Burning before me
I'm feeling helpless
The damsels are depressed
Boys will be boys, then
Where are the wise men?
Darling, I'm scared
Ah, ah, ah
No cameras catch my muffled cries
I counted days, I counted miles
To see you there
To see you there
And now the storm is coming, but
No cameras catch my muffled cries
I counted days, I counted miles
To see you there
To see you there
And now the storm is coming, but
It's you and me
That's my whole world

Hello old friend
I neglected you long enough. I forgot just how much joy you bring me just by looking at you and touching you. I will have you repaired and I will have you played again. I am determined to get you ready by this year.
Nevermind that I don't have an amplifier or a distortion pedal 😒
