After finally succeeding getting out of bed at about 10.30, after Emil SMSing me, i took a quick shower and headed to Odessa studio, near my house, because Oracle was scheduled for a recording session! We all pitched in to pay for the timeslot and recording fee, it was pretty expensive compared to other studios, but it was really worth it! The studio had quality equipment and instruments, and as though a testament to that, right after our session, a popular local band called Coklat came in for a practice session.
After 2 hours rehearsal with our standard set of only 6 songs, the last hour we recorded everything live, trying not to make mistakes. The result was pretty good if i can say so myself, of course, a lot of imperfections here and there, but at least, we had something on hard copy, with pretty good quality recording, which we could use to start looking for venues to perform in. Plus, we all had a CD which we could show off to friends hehehe.... just something to hold on to, a testament to our work for all these months. Bad or good, it was our work and we had the right to be proud of it.
Afterwards i went to Ratu Plaza again, because the Need For Speed CD i bought yesterday wasn't installing on the computer, and the software store guy told me how to make it work; apparently i installed it the wrong way. Alas, after succeeding installment, my body was already very tired from practice and the trip to Ratu Plaza, plus a bout of flu, so i slept until fast break time.
