A good sign?

I stopped feeling good after I knew I needed to do another unfamiliar task. it was audio editting. The time given was just too short for me. I needed more time to get comfortable with the software!!!

Wasting no time, I quickly referred to Dr Foziah's tutorial. Her tutorial was sufficient enough for me. I downloaded everything she advised in the tutorial so as not to miss anything important. I listened patiently to the songs i downloaded and listened hard to spot the differences. I took my less than an hour to comprehend everything. deep inside, i kept asking myself if what I have just learned was sufficient.

Now it was time for me to edit an audio. I found this happenning too fast that i was not completely ready. honestly, this was the first time i took such a short time to learn how to handle a software. feeling insecured still, I went to adec to check on those who had uploaded their audios. surprisingly, there was only one, Bak Zi Yang. he even uploaded a tutorial. Not bad. Wasting no time, i clicked on the tutorial hoping to guide me more. Thankfully, his tutorial was compact and I further understood about the software. I quickly clicked on the 'audacity' software for i could not wait to get started. My editting began but i encountered a problem. I could not drag the wave. knowing that Bak knew about this, I called him up and asked him. He guided me through and I regained my confidence. It was actually quite easy to handle the software. my edited MP3 file could be produced so fast but amendments needed to be done. there was only a problem I faced again and again. I found it hard to cut the wave the exact way to allow the song flow well. i edited the song countless times until the 5th time when I finally managed to edit it well.

all in all, I managed to be the second person to upload my audio in the adec. quite proud of it. haha...
