The amazing internet strikes again. With tools available online for almost everything, it’s no wonder how more people stay indoors to pursue their careers and dreams.
My cousin who’s an aspiring musician just formed their own band. I’ve been wondering how they’ve been practicing and recording their music since I know my cousin’s schedule is pretty packed just from his class schedule. When we met up 2 weekends ago, I did ask him how they manage to practice and record and he said they do it from one of their member’s basement.
The basement, he said, is so up-t-date with tools from the internet. They are able to enhance voices, dub their music, and work on everything else like professionals. Because everything is almost free, they are saving for top-quality condenser microphones which they said will certainly make a difference in their music.
What I would give to have at least 3 days for an Out-of-Town Retreat. It may just be the only way I could get us (me and the hubby) off our gadgets for a good 2-3 days. Oh, but wait, even my 3 year-old won’t have access to her videos and games. Oh well, she has got to learn to live without technology for once.
But seriously, don’t you just wish you could take a break from all your gadgets, and Facebook or Twitter for just a couple of days? I’m still awaiting the day that we can relax in a Cabana overlooking lush greens. A breath of fresh air would be nice for once, just to rejuvenate our lungs.
Hmm… a thought. Maybe I could buy one of those groupon vouchers for the three of us for hubby’s 3x birthday celebration. I’m sure we’ll just absolutely have to use it otherwise it will be a waste of good money. What do you think? Do you think I’ve found the perfect excuse for a retreat away from technology?
