I've been doing a lot of stuff other than my office work. Things mostly related to my bands. It's been quite a while since I got busy writing chords to songs and practicing them on the studio. It's been really difficult trying to squeeze the time.
videos
As for now, my youtube videos (cover songs and tutorials) are on hold. Maybe I could get back on December with some new tutorials. I really really would want to start my php programming tutorials. I wonder if theres a good handful of audiences out there that would want screen cast-type lectures.
Sports
Our company is now having its yearly SPORTSFEST and I'm on the badminton team. Well I can't play basketball 'cause I really don't play it XD It's just sad that the bowling competition isn't pulling through T_T
It's Manny Pacquiao's fight this weekend against Cotto. Go Manny!!!
Music
Yeah as I said I've been writing the chords to the songs that we're performing. Since tabs and chords of certain songs aren't always available on the internet I kind'a got used to writing my own. PLus one of my bandmates (Arun of Moonspeak) taught me a technique to get the basslines of a song.
... use a program to alter the pitch of a song until you hear only the bassline LOL
I didn't really think of that but i worked! I used Audacity for my audio editing stuff and it works pretty well. The rest is still traditionally by ear ^_^
Officework
OUr client is getting kind'a cranky but still workable. I did learn many things on DRUPAL programming and it's making my work pretty much faster, more modular and closer to Drupal standards.
Health
I'm still having trouble inspiring myself to get out of bed early in the morning .. :-( also I'm trying to loose some weight :p yeah I've been trying to eat less during the evening. I hope it works. Oh yeah I have to exercise too I forgot about that LOL

Aside from your strings you should also clean the other moving parts of your guitar. For this video it's the tuning machines. The tuning machines on my guitar are sealed /closed. These are the so called "maintenance-free" type of tuning machines. I was just feeling a bit obsessive-compulsive lol.
The video went out of sync in some part but never mind that :p
Hope you guys would pick up something useful ^_^

This is a re-recorded video of my cover of DAIDAI but this time I included guitar tabs and chords so the viewer can play along. This is my official "youtube version"
This song was used as an ending theme for the anime Bleach.
The song is really really easy with only three (all major) chords. The timing in the intro is the only difficult part but practice makes perfect ^_^
my band has played this song quite a few times already and it's really easy
