ONE RAINY SATURDAY AFTERNOON IN TORONTO

MEETING  MARISSA

Ayee is the first DC Screen Name I met in person. She dropped by the house last Saturday afternoon. Found out that one would know more about a person in just a couple hours of talking with her/him  personally rather than several hours "shooting the breeze" in some Internet chat room. So I found out that:

1) We came from the same school, Adamson University in San Marcelino street. Found out that our former Alma Mater has expanded quite a lot. They purchased not only the Meralco property but also the St. Teresa College which is adjoining  it.

2) She can play the guitar quite well. "I found it hard to use the acoustic guitar because the frets are too hard now" ( because she haven't played the instrument for so long ) . I lent her my fender electric guitar. She strummed on it easy as a breeze.

3) She could do the Karaoke very well. Of course anybody can do the Karaoke. But again there are all sorts of Karaoke singers. Some are being stabbed for singing MY WAY their Way..

 

Did we have fun? Of course we did. The photos speak for themselves. And we also did some digital recordings in my Digital Video Recorder before she left. Yes, the DVD-Recorder could double as a digital recording  unit given the right accessories plugged into it. Meaning mikes, a 2nd DVD Player ( especially a Karaoke-capable DVD -Player plugged to the system ). The 2nd DVD Player provides the accompaniment while the DVD Recorder is capturing the whole performance. The voice recording is crystal clear compared  to one recorded in analog tape.

As they say, Have music will find friends along the way and all the way!!---#

Is the Fender just a prop?..No, she can strum it, stock, lock barrel and all! She will have the MP3 of her Karaoke tracks very soon. Of course, she will be the first one to hear them for her clearance.
