Scrutinizing curly spaghetti

May sikretong mare-reveal !! Whaat?

haha..mahiwagang statement ko 'to for the past 5 days kay ate rayz at siguro'y siya'y nahihiwagaan .. hje...
 anu kaya ibig sabihin nun ?

Lately kasi madalas kong maencounter yung word na "secret"
and anything na related dun.. Pati sa quiet time ko , napakaraming beses ko na din 'tong naencounter. I was thinking  if it was something about some secrets na meron ako na dapat i-reveal or secrets na irereveal sa akin or secrets na dapat talaga kaming 2 lang ng God ang nakakaalam..

one of which is found in Deut. 29:29

"The secret things belong to the Lord our God , but the things revealed belong to us  and to our children forever,that we may follow all the words of this law. "


Another one in Matt. 13:11

"He replied, " The knowledge of the secrets of the kingdom of heaven has been given to you , but not to them. "

Until now di pa rin masyado clear sa akin kung para saan talaga  yun pero I know God will show it to me in His perfect time.

Time for evaluation and contemplation.. (dapat naman lage di ba .. hje )

"Each heart knows its own bitterness , and no one else can share its joy. "
        
            Proverbs 14:10

Minsan talaga kahit na sabihin ng ibang tao na damang-dama nila ang pinagdadaanan nating mga pagsubok, hindi garantisadong 100 per cent na naiintindihan nila yun. Tanging God lang at ikaw.

Ganun din kapag joyful ang heart, other people may rejoice with us but still only us, ourselves,  can really feel and value the joy or sorrow which we're going or have gone through.

Sa mga ganung pagkakataon natin din nararamdaman yung genuine na pasasalamat sa Panginoon makita man ng ibang tao in an expressive way or just keeping it to yourself.


 

Seldom set foot in your neigbor's house ---
    too much of you , and he will hate you.
            >>>>Provs. 25:17



Kaya naman, iwasang mangapit-bahay lagi !! haha
di lang natin alam, sinusuka na pala nila tayo. hje.

18 common mistakes of worship teams by Jerome Castro

Here are 18 common mistakes that worship leaders make together with some suggestions for how to avoid them:

1. Including too many new songs in the set - Your congregation is there to worship - most will find it difficult to do so if they spend most of the time learning your latest masterpieces Vary your set list to include a variety of older, recently introduced and brand new songs and be ready to make changes on the fly if you sense your congregation is becoming weary.

2. Pitching the songs too high - Remember that a comfortable range for a woman is about five semitones lower than a man. Change the key down to avoid going above top D particularly if you are playing in a small church situation.

3. Clunky moving from song to song. - Playing a song once its underway is fairly straightforward so make sure you concentrate on rehearsing how to start and end a song. Practising a seamless flow from one song to the next is worthwhile and focus on. It will help if both are in the same key with a similar groove and if you are using music, make sure the sheets are side by side on your music stand.

4. Poor band dynamics - conflicting rhythms, one instrument speeding up/slowing down, vocalists overwhelming the sound with too many ad libs or vibrato. Exercise leadership in directing your singers clearly and if necessary get them some vocals training. Get them to listen to each others' parts and possibly film or record a service to help with some constructive criticism.

5. Lack of leadership - Without clear guidance from the worship leader its difficult for the band to know what they are meant to do, let alone the congregation. Give a good clear brief in practice and use vocal cues and body language to communicate during the set.

6. Overly complex vocals - Congregations get easily confused when the lead vocalist slips into harmonies, trills and ad libs. Simple clear melody is always the easiest to follow. Leave the harmonies for the backing vocalists.

7. Poor phrasing and blending by vocalists - Make sure that all your singers are phrasing each "musical sentence" in the same way. It can help to have one backing vocalist leading the others so that everyone finishes their words at the same time. In the studio, singers are often asked not to finish the last consonant in a line so that the ending doesn't sound jagged.

8. Wrong keys or wrong capo positions - Make sure all the band are playing in the same key. Issue your set list in advance with instructions for keys. And if you change your mind, make sure that everyone knows.

9. Tuning - are all your instruments in tune and are they staying in tune throughout the set? Even the right notes out of tune sound far worse than the wrong notes in tune so buy yourself a decent tuner like the Boss TU2 - cheap tuners can be so frustrating

10. Lack of rhythm and togetherness by the band - This can be caused by many things including poor musicianship and lack of overall direction. Try to generate a sense of team where everyone plays their part to contribute to the whole without any one musician standing out. Also ensure that you have the relevant instruments in your foldback - i.e. the kick drum and other instruments responsible for rhythm.

11. Winging it - either the result of poor preparation or trying something new out on the spot. Be sure you can accomplish what you have in mind. Are you trying to sing a song without the lyrics in front of you and you've forgotten the words? Does your AV guy have the words for the congregation or do they have to remember them too? Do you and the rest of the band know all the chords you need?

12. Technical problems - The sound gremlins can happen to the best of us but try to get there early, set up methodically and make sure your technicians are well trained in the system they are using.

13. Problems with pitch - you're starting a new song and you've suddenly realised you've started on completely the wrong note. Try to identify the problem songs in advance and quietly play the note you need to hit on your instrument. Hold the note in your head while playing the intro and then hit it with confidence. Alternatively ask one of the other (confident) vocalists to lead on that song

14. Over emphasis on the melody line - Make sure your backing vocalists and single melody instruments are playing harmonies. The lead vocalist and congregation are all on the melody line - create some contrast.

15. Worship train crash - Often caused by trying something complicated that hasn't been practised enough. Never try anything complicated until you, the band and the congregation are really familiar with the song.

16. Starting the song in the wrong tempo. - Either invest in an in ear click or sing the song through in your head first so that you can pace the tempo properly. Generally the chorus is the fastest part of the song.

17. Backing vocal disharmony - Get your backing vocalists to check their harmonies off mic unless they are really confident that they will hit the right pitch first time

18. Audio visual failure - This happened to Matt Redman one time when I was playing guitar. Matt just shifted his set list to songs with simple lyrics and gave spoken vocal cues to the congregation at junction points in the song.


   
 

Metacognition .

School is meant for learning .
Learning the relative right and wrong .
hmmn.
What you do , I do
how  right or wrong it may seem.

Giving remarks on the wrong way of solving
caution !!
is a caution meant for another cause of caution ?
hmn...

makes me think.
tama.
halos lahat ng ginagawa ng matanda
tama sa mata ng bata.
 so, bata pa pala talaga ako.
hje.

Weighing things out  ,if there's indeed substance lying underneath it

or over it, or at the side of it. hje.

 metacognition is  beyond  "matacognition"
needs  scruniziting eyes and minds.

etymology, psychology..
(biology , entomology etc.)  hje..
mga basikong batis ng pag-unawa
or can be used in the very least
for explaining a hodgepodge of everything .

Lohika at pakiramdam, kahit minsan magkaaway,
di dapat na maghiwalay.
kung walang pakiramdam parang kapeng walang asukal.
black.mapait.  matapang. lasa ng di makatarungan.\

kung walang lohika, parang isang strawberry plantation na di ginamitan

ng mulch .
sumasayad sa lupa ang prutas , narurumihan, rumurupok  pagdaka'y

nabubulok. sira.

Kognitibo.pag-iisip.
paninimbang.
walang exempted.
bata  o gurang na matanda.

GRATEFUL

V1:
Gazing by the window
    on a starry night
Recollecting the years passed by
Remembered how you worked in my life.

V2:
Counting many problems
    but blessings outdo them all
You never fail to bless me
Faithful, gracious God

Chorus:
    I'm so grateful  you're here with me
    (So) grateful you never leave me
(2x)

V3:
 Loving,glorious Father
Your love surrounds me
In my weakness, you're my strength
In affliction you're my hope


(chorus til , then V2 ,chorus til fade)

(this is my first composition, notebook .. hje)

 Ang banana que at si papa.

Matamis na saging, pinaliguan ng
sandamakmak na asukal.
Brown na medyo nangingitim na, bukol-bukol na nakadikit sa adhesive portions ng saging.

kung hindi dahil sa makapal na coating ng "caramelized sugar" hindi sana makakabenta ng bananaque si papa at makakabenta pantawid-gutom sa lola at mga kapatid.

Pinaubaya na niya sa bagong laba na kamisetang puti ang tadhana ng mga naglaglagan at nagkandasabog-sabog na banana-que sa masikip, maingay at di magkandaugagang sabungan, puno ng hiyawan at bulyawan (pasimuno ung tinatawag nilang "cristo" ng sabungan )

 di hinayaang masayang sa wala ang pinagpaguran at pinaggastahang saging kasama na ang "caramelized sugar"
Sa pagkasagi sa kanya ng isang manong na naghahabol sa tayaan , di sa kanya sumagi ang konsepto ng "germs".


(sa totoo lang, germs talaga ang nagpapasarap sa pagkain pag minsan )hje.

pinulot agad ang mga naghulagpusang mga saging sa sahig na maalikabok at sa mga sulok-sulok sa malapit.
 " marumi na yan ! ibebenta mo pa?"
tanong ng manong ng  na nakasaksi sa pagsabog ng mga paninda niya.  

Isang makahulugang tingin ang tugon ni papa sa nagtanong na manong.

sa isip niya siguro,
"sayang.sayang ang bananaque! ang layo pa ng nabyahe ko para lang maibenta toh dito, at bakit hindi ko ulit ito ititinda?
Nagulat lang naman ang mga germs , wala pang 10 seconds, di sila nakagapang agad agad.. "

pagkapulot ng bilao na puno ng "alikabok-coated banana-ques, kumaripas agad ng takbo si ama sa pinakamalapit na palikuran at agad-agad na hinubad ang puting kamiseta tska ipinunas sa mga paninda.

"dapat may maiuwi akong pinagbentahan nitong pinaghirapan k0!" ,bulong niya sa sarili.

kasalanan ko bang sumabog 'to ? si manong na hindi tumitingin sa dinadaanan niya ang may kasalanan, BAKIT kailangang AKO ang MAGDUSA?

Mabuti sana kung ako lang, pati si nanay at ibang mga kapatid damay na rin.
walang panggasta, ayaw ko namang tumunganga o tengga na lang sa bahay .
may dagdag toppings nga lang yung bananaque, bahala na kung malasahan yun ng kakain.

 pagdarasal ko na lang na walang magrebolusyon ang tyan sa tinda ko.


si papa. hay.
mabuti na lang walang  nagwala ang tiyan sa bananaque niya (sa palagay ko lang ah.) hje.

napakasipag at determinadong ama.
Nagaya ko na ba siya kahit minsan ?
ang kapiranggot na pagtitiis ko siguro'y wala pa sa kalingkingan ng dinanas niya .

natitiis ang pagkalayo sa mga minamahal
para lang makapangtustos.
Di siya nagbago sa mga adhikain.
una muna ang pamilya bago ang kung sino at kung ano pa man .

noon di ko naiintindihan ang mga paghihigpit,ngayon maliwanag pa sa sikat ng araw ang iyong mga pangaral, ninyo ni mama.

pananagutan

Sandali, dapat bang limutin ang nakaraan
Pa'no , pa'nong gagawin kung ito'y walang hanggan
'Di mo malalaman kapag mayroong pagmamahalan
Na sa isang pagsasama't pananagutan

Pwede ba, pwede nga kayang malunasan ang lumbay
Kailan, kailan ka muling babati't hahagkan
'Di mo malalaman kapag mayroong pagmamahalan
Na sa isang pagsasama't pananagutan

Pananagutan.. pananagutan
Sandali, dapat bang limutin ang nakaraan

        -as sung by Ninni.

Kahapon lamang

Nag-umpisa na naman ang tuwa ng puso
At bigo ng 'yong damdamin kahapon
Bihira na ang lahat gunit 'di pa malimot
Ang mga pagnanais ng kahapon

Refrain:
Kahapon lamang ay di mo ninais na maalala
Kahapon lamang mga kalunkutan ang iyong alaala
Kahapon lamang mga pangyayari ng iyong pagdurusa
Kahapon lamang, kahapon lang
Simula na naman ng iyong pagtitipon
Sa mga nakakalat na kahapon
'Wag ka sanagn ganyan na laging pulio
Ngunit katotohanan mo'y kahapon

(refrain except last line)

Bridge:
Kahapon sa pagbabatid ng araw
Ang landas ng 'yong pangarap pa

(Refrain)

Kahapon lamang, kahapon lang
kahapon lamang 

"but im not so sure that you're the one that  should  I pursue.
my mind tells me no, but my heart only says that it's you "

-mind or heart ?
BOth , just balance it . hEjee.
