Well, the title says it all. I'm still waiting for a reply from Foodland. I asked a friend if he could check up on the status of my application, and he said he'd ask tomorrow (he works there).
I'm hoping that the manager is working there that day because that would mean that my mate could put in a good word and get me in. You guys have no idea how badly I'm coping with this. I NEED A JOB.
To pass the time and get my mind off things, I picked up my Schecter, and started learning scales finally. I learnt a couple of patterns and straight away I started improvising almost flawlessly. Before I knew about scales, I would just make rubbish up on the spot and just tweak it untill it sounded right. I've also noticed a difference in the way I think about music now. I used to think about all the different notes on the fretboard. Now i just think about a few patterns and it makes it all so much easier to play.
If you don't know how helpful scales are, learn them, and you'll see.
