The second day of the music camp was not as boring as the first day. The drum group was splitted into two smaller groups so that we can have more attention from our instructors. The instructor taught me how to do simple strokes and also touch on the dynamics of playing the drums.
Just as it was approaching about four in the afternoon, my friend who was awaiting his appeal to ACJC came and told me the good news that he was accepted. I really thank God for answering my friend’s prayer. God really works in ways that we cannot see, but yet he is there to help my friend who prayed so many times and had so much faith in God. I am indeed very happy for my friend and I hope that he will treasure his place in the junior college and make his stay there meaningful.
After the music camp, I went to the Yamaha music shop at Plaza Singapura with my friend to take a look at drum sticks and also to find a drum pad for myself to practice on. Unfortunately, the drum pad there was very expensive and I could not afford it. I hope to be able to find a cheaper one elsewhere soon, so that I will be able to practice on my drum strokes at home.
Tomorrow marks the last day of the music camp and I am a little sad that it is ending so soon. I really miss the time where I can play the drums and learn new skills from my instructor. I hope there will be more of this camps coming soon.
