Dear Mama,
Angel will be having her first day at her new work today. She's preparing right now as I'm writing this letter, Mama. They will be on day shift today, although their time is only 10 am to 2 pm because they'll just be having their orientation, and perhaps onboarding. They still don't know their time schedule for tomorrow, Mama.
We don't have work today. It's a holiday on Wednesday, May 27, but our office usually offsets midweek holidays to either Monday or Friday so we'll have a straight long weekend. Which of course, we would welcome, Mama. Ralph also won't have work tonight because it's a holiday in the U.S. and they follow American holiday in their office since their clients are based in America. Edgar is already at his work.
I had my busking session at the Plaza Angel in the Heritage District of Angeles City last night, Mama. And boy, did I make a fool of myself. After all those weeks of practice, I still fumbled a lot, Mama. And worse, Ralph, Edgar, and Angel were with me last night. I'm not sure if they were embarrassed, too haha...
I thought I was prepared, but I did not expect the spotlight which affected my vision. I wasn't able to see the frets of my guitar, Mama. This caused me to go to have wrong chords because I would often land on the wrong frets. This happened on the first song, and it affected my performance the entire night, Mama. Even on the songs I didn't need to move to higher frets. Perhaps, because of the errors I became conscious, and committed even more errors, Mama. I'm afraid to watch to video of my performance on my phone haha...
I never had that condition before, Mama, wherein I can't see my own guitar because of the spotlights. I guess I need to prepare and practice moving on the guitar frets even without looking. I still had fun, though. At least some people were still appreciative. I got some tips. Overall, it was not such a bad experience. It's a learning one. I need to expose myself more so I would know where to improve, Mama.
Well, that's all for now, Mama. I just wanted to update you, especially on my bloopers last night. I hope I did not embarrassed you too much. I hope you watched me.
I miss you, Mama.
I love you.
Daddy
