I could feel the rhythm flowing in my veins for some weird reason. I was in the midst of playing Kingdom Hearts Re:Chain of Memories and the first Kingdom Hearts when my incessant urge to drum reached its peak. So, after several months of not having been able to beat the drums, I finally connected the wires and got ready.
For some reason, I just felt at a loss on what to play, and I broke down and cried.
I don't want today to repeat itself. I wish I can play something spectacular one day.... :'(
EDIT 2010.06.06 : Oh, and...
Pretty blur, but from where I live, this is all that remains of MEI Furniture Plaza. After the huge fire destroyed it.

I wonder how it is that drummers can move their hands really fast.
Don't know. But they were most likely slower when they started. :)
In fitness, there's something called Interval Training (http://www.bodybuilding.com/fun/richb3.htm). Maybe you could apply that to drumming. You are an intelligent girl, Annette; if something's not working for you, attack it from a different angle. Maybe work on strengthening your hands and arms, too--strong hands are fast hands.
"The spirit is willing, but the flesh is weak." I know you will to play; there's no doubt about it. What will separate you from the other guys, though, is playing even when don't have the "rhythm flowing". :)
"The spirit is willing, but the flesh is weak" - how true ! I was actually thinking about this quite a lot of times.
I just hope and pray I'll get there...
