 After the camp, I came back with fresh ideas to improve my personal journey with music and I am discovering the joys of transcribing music, I’m working on an Ilayaraja song. It’s a simple melody but the bass line is killer. Im imagining it on guitar and notating it on software as well; maybe someone will buy it later. Or I’ll release them into a book someday. What say?

 I slept a lot during the day, then the carpenters came in to complete the work under my sink. They fit the frames and now I wait for the mica to be stuck for the finish. The sink is also clogged so tomorrow we need to get a plumber in. It’s overwhelming with a lot of work, but it needs to be done. 

 I went to visit Andy today. I met him at Bethel and we hung out at his place and had lunch together. The biryani tasted like the ones I have had at Hyderabad. Then we ordered from Jetros, and had to go there and collect it because Andy had put the wrong location for the food to be delivered. Then Jude came by and picked us up and we ate fish fries, watched IPL and played sequence. Gladys and Thejo joined us.

 My kitchen door started to fall apart, thanks to termites. My got a carpenter home to fix it today we cleaned up, yanked out all the infested wood, took measurements for replacements. We also fixed the jammed doors today. I got lunch from Sahana aunty. She was kind enough to send some food over. God bless her. 

 I woke up early and at 7:00 I walked to the polling station, to cast my vote. Then it was breakfast time, I had Puttu and pappadam. I was soo thankful for mom! Then the kids arrived. Ivan booked a bike transport and got here quite early. I set up the place and saw the video Emmanuel sent. To my surprise all the kids were on time. Akshita and Durga stayed up and wrapped some chocolates to appreciate my efforts. God bless them. We went through each session and we revised core theory concepts and did some exercises. Then we played some games. I treated them with Burger King! Thank God I had Ujwal’s help. Then it was time for them to leave. I felt sad that the camp was over. They are all my babies! Some of them will be such amazing musicians! 

 I’m preparing for the last day at camp! My parents will be here and I need to wake up early to go vote and take some classes. so good night!  

I know it’s hot and humid, But why do I have cold feet?  Butterflies in my stomach,  I’m feeling all that again.  I know I’m in love.  She’s an artist,  Paints sceneries and teaches me the art too!  Organised, clarity in speech,  My “crush”  Then I noticed the ring,  There was perhaps a man in her life?  I secretly wished for someone, just like her.  Then it snowed, just on the inside, My heart felt heavy A song left my lips,  I prayed, I manifested!  Now I wait.
