Stage 5, Day 16 (halfway through stage);
Plays: 234 hours
Today; I was running around, going to class, order some REAL leather shoes for work instead of the fake-leather-break-in-6-months shoes (I work at a clothier, so it's warranted).
After my classes, I got home and have been studying ever since.
I keep seeing beautiful women at inconvenient occasions (as in they're walking fast), but I'm currently not in the mood to go up and introduce myself; my operative thought is "Meh". Looking deeper, I realize it's likely a resignation that it "probably wouldn't work out, therefore not worth the effort".
I intended to go to bed early today, but I got some last minute studying, and I picked up my guitar to work on scales. I made one discovery after the other regarding the patterns of the fretboard with major/minor scales, which absolutely blew my mind and will change the way I see scales forever! Not even joking, it's thrilling!
Still have to practice to drive it into my muscle memory, but it will be fun. I realize that most guitar blunders and failure to play fast has to do with hesitation, rather than inadequate neural pathways.
