After days of sifting through the various eBay listings and possible candidates, I ended up buying a brand new Martin OMCPA4 acoustic electric guitar. I picked this one primarily because I wanted to finally have an all-solid acoustic guitar and ofcourse stay within the brand that my guitar heroes use. Another important aspect of this guitar that helped decide was its “OM” body, the body of the guitar is smaller than my older Martin which makes it more convenient to carry around and to play. One thing I forgot to consider was to buy a guitar stand from musicians friend. Hopefully I can still get one in time.

I’ve been looking for an acoustic version of this song ever since the album was released. Thanks to the uploader, JM seems to have more soul and breathes new life to his songs when he performs live with an acoustic guitar.

The reconstruction of our house has finally progressed after it was halted due to bureaucratic reasons. It took our city government more than 4 months to get everything ready for the construction to progress. Thankfully, everything is now all set and we are just waiting for the elections to be done with. Hopefully we still have all our supplies and tools working properly, including the shovels, pales, cements, hollow blocks, mixers and hydraulic swing clamps.

Craig’s simplistic arguments have not changed much, but it doesn’t seem to stop it from continuing to dismantlle the skeptics’ arguments.

Now that our home is under renovation, I am thinking of a way to incorporate a small pool into the design. I was thinking of something small on the rooftop complete with pentair led pool light. I’m sure it will be a fun area for us, especially for my kids! Unfortunately, the cost will be a bit too much for our small budget. We will probably have to settle for bath tubs, but hopefully we will get to own our own pool in the near future!
