8:30ish: I broke my capo.

9am: Rachel and I got to the bus stop just to realize that we were late. We simply took her car to get to church.

 

9:30-12ish: Church. For the first time, we were asked to choose the songs. So Rachel and I chose songs that we knew we could actually play (we’ve had a hard time playing the “Célébrons Dieu” songs (sort of French hymnal). We played on stage for the very first time, but without mics, so people, again, had a hard time following us. During the first song, a new guy that was in the church came up front and started playing on the piano, trying to play along with us, then kept on trying following us for the rest of the worship time. A little awkward, since he didn’t know the chords/notes, but eh. At the end of the service, he came up to Rachel and I and started telling us about all the great things we could do together as a worship team, he could teach us more guitar stuff and bring his music students to play with us in church. He wants to transform the whole worship part of the church and it was his first time in church! I felt like telling him to sit in church for a little and get to know the people and the church’s needs about music, and, talk to the church’s leaders about it… and make sure he is not imposing anything on us, as we’ve been planning with more people about the music team. Quite a morning. He’s really gifted though, he played at the Montreal Jazz Festival he said, and it would be neat to have him, but it was his first time in our church, so I’m hoping and praying that he’ll be guided by the church’s leaders about this and take the time to get to know the people and see for himself if he wants to go to our church for real or not.

1:30-3pm: Bought a new capo. I couldn’t buy a black one since Esther (roommate) as the black one. I felt like getting the blue one, but… Jason has one like that. Didn’t feel a white one and thought the red one was a little too bright. SO. I got the silver one. After my trip to Archambault, I went “upstairs”. That’s a rectangle hill where people play soccer, play with their dogs and etc. and that’s really close to where I live. So I went there and walked and enjoyed the NICE WIND.

Now I don’t feel like studying.

    Isn’t life difficult? Blue, black, white, silver, so many colors to choose from!!!!! How do you get through such difficult times?

  1. I know it was quite a challenge and it gave me a headache. My old capo lasted about… at least a good 4 years (you remember, you gave it to me).

    I remember it!
    It was writen: Hallelu-yah! on it
    some’ng like that

  2. You are RIGHT!

    I don’t think I’ll be carving anything on my new one. It’s not as fat.

  3. PS, Corinne, your picture is quite cheesy.

  4. Of course, I would not have taken it personally if you had bought the blue one.

  5. Indeed, it would have been a little immature of you and I know you’re not so I didn’t think you would take it personally if I had gotten the blue one (especially that it’s not like we live in the same house). But I thought that I might get tired of blue (like red).
