Just Me and My World!

Bring it on 2011!

2011-01-01T23:57:00.003+08:00

I would like to wish everyone a Happy New Year 2011!

2010 has passed by so fast, now we are into another decade through the 20th millennial.

To me, 2010 has been a real roller coaster ride with many ups and downs, but mostly downs I would have to say. I've had my moments early in the year and that is about it for me.

Let's recap 2010:

Ups:

1.Final Year Project has to be the best time in 2010. I made friends, had a lot of fun and able to get an A for my grade.

2. Able to get the inspiration flowing and wrote a few songs. Too bad I lost some of it because my computer crashed.

3. Manage to master the hotel California solo.

Downs:

1. Fell into deep depression and was suicidal for 3 months. That really took a big toll on me mentally and physically.

2. I don't have a family another. I don't have a father anymore.

Lessons learnt:

1. Even the most hurtful and depressing times can be your strongest. Use it to your advantage and become stronger than ever.

2. Trials and tribulations are like a storm. When it comes, it rages on and on and it seems forever. But when it clears, light pours in like never before.

New Year Resolution:

I made my resolution quite early in the year and I will keep up to it. I will not go back to that dark place where I came from and will continue to do the best I can in my studies, music and my life.

Cheers!

Music...Part of us?

2010-12-28T00:55:00.003+08:00

Dear Readers (if there is any),

Today's post will be a little different from the other posts I've had. Today I will be talking about something that is close to my heart. Music. Music as many people come to understand is a tune or rhythm which we tend to enjoy for just the pleasure of listening to it. May it be heavy metal to classical it is all music. Rap is not counted.

Music plays a more important role than just for entertainment (for me it does). It can command us everyday for our life. Music has a more significant role than you think. Let's start with something simple.

1. Music is entertainment

Music = entertainment, that is true. Everyone enjoys music be it in different forms. People don't go to rock concerts for the music but for the atmosphere, the crowd and maybe the girls (for guys) and guys (for girls).

2. Music are mood changers

This is a true fact! For experience different type of songs can change ones person's mood. You can be happy listening to a fast, sweet lyric-ed song and the next moment being all down because of a song change. Lets take some songs for example; 'Marry you - Bruno Mars' is a very upbeat song with beautiful lyrics and awesome composition. This song will keep your spirits up no matter what but when you listen to a song like 'Broken Angel - Boyce Avenue' it makes you think about the lyrics and how it can affect you. The tune too is a bit too depressing but still a great song. If you think you have mood swings? Then stop changing songs so fast!

3. Music influences emotions

Besides it setting the moods, it can influence your emotions. Say you just met the girl/guy of your dreams and the whole day you think about that person. You will not wanna play a sad song, you want that same feeling of euphoria throughout the day. So what do you do? Play a happy tune. This tune maintains your happiness more or less throughout the whole day.

Or it could be the other way around. You just got dumped and feeling like shit. Though you try to tell yourself to cheer up. You just can't seem to get to it. So? You play the saddest you have in your music file. I bet some people do that. Just admit it!

4. Music brings back memories

Ah! Beautiful memories when a song you loved when you were a kid. It makes you reminiscent about you childhood, teenage years etc. Certain songs you may hear over the radio or in your playlist will trigger back memories in an instant. Whether good or bad, you will recall of your past. Me for example, if I listen to Backstreet boys it will take me back to my primary school days. And if I listen to 'Bop Bop Baby - Westlife' it reminds me of my biggest heartache. Though this are just two examples, different songs trigger different memories. Maybe it is also a good thing knowing you have grown up for the better (or worst).

5. Music is your lifeline

Contestant: Can I use a lifeline?

Host: Who would you like to call?

Contestant: My favorite song...

It may seem rather stupid that music could be someone's lifeline and saving them from doing stupid things like killing themselves but in certain cases it is true. Once again use me for example, I was in a very bad place for 3 months and music was the only thing preventing me from going insane. Under the amount of pressure I have, music is my only savior. There are many songs out there which boost ones person's morale or even giving a moment of epiphany. Let's see what songs are inspirational? 'Fireworks - Katy Perry', ' Good Life - One Republic', 'Not Afraid - Eminem' and 'Don't stop believing - Journey'. These are a few examples of inspirational songs. There are loads more.

6. Music is all around us

Music is in everything, a piece of rock, a tree rustling its leaves and even your heartbeat. The rhythm you heart beats to, that too is music technically. Though many people do not hear it, if a person understands and listens, they may be able to hear the sweet symphony of nature. Inspiration for writing music comes from there. Maybe there is something greater out that which gives us the power of inspiration to make music.

The best examples for natural music has to be birds. Every morning you can hear birds chirp in different pitch and tone. If that is not music, then what is?

7. Music is life

I can summarize all this into one sentence.

'The way your heart beats, the way you feel, the way you think and the way you live, music plays a role"

Well, that is all I will be talking about music for now!

Cheers!

It's been awhile

2010-12-25T00:59:00.004+08:00

Hey People!

I know I have not blogged for quite awhile. I think the last time I blogged was just before the common tests. This is gonna be quite long.

Common test week was crazy. I mean literally crazy! The first day which was a Monday was alright, the brain was still functioning well and all pumped to get the tests over and done with. However, by Wednesday, it started to take a turn for the worst. Everything was chaotic. Tried memorizing my notes but nothing seems to go in. Reach home after studying and all I can do is eat then sleep. That was how 'nutsy' it was. I had to shout the sentence to get it into my head.

By Friday, my brain was literally dead. Nothing could go in, not even the information at the bus terminal. If 7 common test papers can do this to me, how am I gonna survive for my exams? I would be dead by the last paper.

So now its our 'Christmas Break'. Not much of a break I would say! Almost everyday its projects. This and that project. God! Can I at least breathe a little? I'm suffocating under all this work.

Filming for PCT is almost done. I'm so happy that we manage to get what we wanted in that 2 days for filming but the worst part is gotta be the editing. Save me please.

Had a Christmas Eve dinner at my Aunty's house just now and it was totally awesome. Though my stomach is gonna explode anytime soon.

I wanted to blog about something to do with music but as I am typing this out, I became lazy to type out a whole entire blog about music. Just a synopsis of my next blog: Music is something important but we never seem to realize. Its in our heart, mind and soul almost every second of our being. That is all I would say =)

Anyway, I would like to wish a Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays to everyone who is reading this whether you are black, white, brown, yellow, Muslim, Christian, Buddhist, Aliens, Monsters, Ghosts, Elves, Dwarfs, Gnomes, and so on. MERRY CHRISTMAS!

Cheers!

The 90s

2010-12-12T20:17:00.003+08:00

Random Post #1

Today I started listening to pop-techno's of the 90's and I really miss those days where the music were pure and just plain awesome!

Does it make you wonder that we are getting old?!

Here are a few of those songs. Hope it can bring back some memories of a once beautiful 90's

Cheers! and good luck for the common tests!

Late once more...

2010-12-12T01:08:00.003+08:00

Hey People!

Sorry I did not update the past week. It has been a rather hectic with the common tests coming up and revision seems to be never ending. I too am taking my own sweet time studying when the first paper is this Monday!

On the bright side, after the common tests would be a 2 weeks break or rather make it 3 since e-learning week is too given. There is nothing much to say today or about the past week but just I studied, watched my shows and played my guitar.

I too may starting putting up videos of myself playing the guitar and singing original songs or covers. I have no decided yet. Maybe if more people read my blog I may actually do that. Be warned, my singing is horrible!

Here is the video of the week

This is a new song my Tae Yeon for the Korean Drama Athena: Goddess of war. Heard this drama is good and it is the spin-off of IRIS.

I may put the lyrics up someday...

Cheers!

Friday Once Again

2010-12-03T17:04:00.002+08:00

Heyaaa,

It's Friday...Again...

Anyway this week have been rather a roller coaster? You can say that. A lot of things happened...

Monday: we chased Cherine Tan like a pack of wolves for our cell comm results. It was literally standing at the staff door and staring into the room while she typed out our grades in the computer. It was like waiting for our O level results. Lol. Anyway, I got an 'A' so yea, that gave me the motivation to do sustain the same grade.

Tuesday: Was kinda alright, I went to the gym after school and met Joseph. I have really I mean really bad stamina! I ran on the treadmill for about 15 minutes and I could not take it. Though I can do the other circuits but my weakness is definitely running.

Funny Story:

I was taking the train home after gym. I went to sit down and there was this guy sitting directly opposite me. You know sometimes when you are very tired or just restless you tend to just stare blankly into space? That kind of reaction. I was having one of that moment looking at the wrong thing. I was blankly staring at his crotch. The best part was his legs were spread open. I had no idea I was doing that. I think it was quite long after I realized I stared at it. I was like "Oh...Shit..." and quickly looked around to see if anyone had seen me. I spotted this girl sitting diagonal to me she gave me a quick smile and a snicker. I was like "crap..." and quickly looked away.

Wednesday: was a boring day. Shall not touch on that!

Thursday: It was havoc in the morning. I had to take my NAPFA test I was totally unprepared for. Though I had been training, I did not train enough for it. I knew I would screw it up. I was wrong...

Sit Ups: 41 (A=40)

Chin Ups: 4 (Pass=3)

Sit & Reach: 41 (I think its B?)

Shuttle Run: 10.4 sec (B)

Standing Broad Jump: Fayul!

2.4km Run: Fayul!

I failed two out of six stations. That was a miracle I would say. 4 chin ups? Gotta be kidding me!

Friday: Got back our proteomics results, I got an 'A' thanks to the recommended book. It really helped a lot. I cycle to school and going home I had to cycle in heavy rain. At least my bike had a good washing.

Now, time for the video of the week.

This song by Katy Perry seems inspirational compared to her other songs which I think totally made no sense.

At least these lyrics are kinda cool.

Cheers!

Video of the Week!

2010-11-26T22:24:00.001+08:00

Hey all,

Hey ya'll

Today is Friday. Meaning my proteomics test is over and that means I have time to finish up my Comm Skills Presentation and Resume/Cover Letter writing.

Today proteomics test was better than expected compared to the SFG. SFG was really indirect and I know I am kinda screwed. However, proteomics seemed to be much simpler cause maybe I could understand the concepts. Thank you recommended book!

Overall Progress

Comm Skills Presentation: 90% Completed

Resume/Cover Letter: 60%

For those who are bored or maybe just have nothing to do. I suggest you watch the following movies:

1. Easy A

2. Inception

3. Shrek forever after

4. Sorcerer's Apprentice

5. Scott Pilgrim vs The World

TV Shows:

1. No ordinary family

2. Chuck (Currently on season 4)

3. Grey's Anatomy (Currently season 7)

4. Stargate Universe (Currently season 2)

5. Glee (Currently season 2)

6. Nikita

7. Big Bang Theory (Currently season 3)

For those who do not know where to get this shows, you can download it from www.eztv.it.

Provided you have a torrent to download it to.

Video of the week will be posted up soon.

Cheers!

Wednesday Baby!

2010-11-24T17:52:00.002+08:00

Hey guys!

Well my SFG test is over. I would have thought the A4 written notes would help but actually it didn't help that much.

Most of it we had to use our brains and understanding to try to figure out the questions. Some of the answers are very similar which could throw off a person who doesn't understand.

Anyway, another day another video!

Remarks: This song has an awesome tune and rhythm. The lyrics pose a heartbroken man willing to do anything for the one he loves but apparently his opposite is otherwise...

That is all for now enjoy!

Cheers!

Forget you!

2010-11-19T21:24:00.003+08:00

Hey guys!

It's Friday! And you know what that means? Tomorrow is Saturday! Lame...

Anyway, MBID test is over. It was alright but the NK cells question was a goner. But overall, I think I did alright.

Here is video of the day!

Today's video is on Glee...Yes...glee. It is not gay or whatsoever watching it.

Don't you think Gwyneth Paltrow is smokin' hot?

Cheers!

My brain is dead

2010-11-19T00:13:00.003+08:00

It is pass midnight as I am writing this post. Well, in about 14 hours time I would be having my MBID test. It is not easy studying for it. First of all, it has too much things to memorize. That includes drugs, mechanism of action, bacterial pathogenesis, etc.

Hope the test would not be as difficult as what Buva had described about for last semester. She said at least 40% of the cohort failed the first paper. What?! 40%?!. We are really screwed.

Still having block nose and a bit of sore throat but I feel it is clearing. Yesterday I drown my system with water and chrysanthemum tea for the whole day. I can afford to fall sick now with all my tests and project deadlines, it seems never ending. Well, have to take each day with stride. Hwaiting!

Here is a new song from Tae Yeon (SNSD) & The One

It is called "Like a star"

Don't understand?

Well, here are the English lyrics to the song,

Where ever you are hiding
I can find you
If there were no you
If there were no you
...Then my heart would stop
Even if you don't say "Love"
I can feel with my heart
If you are here
If you are here
I don't need anything
You're my everything to me
You're my everything to me
Please shine like a star in the sky
You are my only love
Forever my only love
We love each other
All I need is you

Can it be compared with anything else
Can it be exchanged with anything else
Your love
Your heart
...Who can replace you
You're my everything to me
You're my everything to me
Please shine like a star in the sky
Please shine like a star in the sky
You are my only love
Forever my only love
We love each other
All I need is you
We will never part from each other
Anything that will hurt you
Nothing that will cause tear will happen
You're my everything to me
You're my everything to me
Let's not change
Even as time goes by
You're my only love
Forever my only love
We love each other
In a place without sadness

Well, I'm off to bed now nights

Gee

The after effects

2010-11-17T10:12:00.001+08:00

Selamat Hari Raya Haji to my muslim friends!

For me, I am feeling like crap...my chest is hurting from the gym. Now I know how it feels to get boob implants. Lol. On the bright side I know the ache is good.

Now got a bad cold and sore throat, hope I don't come down with flu. I got hiking on Saturday! Please let me recover.

I'm not feeling so fly like a G6 at the moment...

Gee

Hoot Hoot Hoot!

2010-11-14T17:20:00.004+08:00

Hey guys!

Ever since SNSD came back with their new hit "Hoot", I can't stop listening!

From the time they debuted in 2007 till now, they have gotten so much better and prettier too! XD

Anyway, here is one of my favorite video of them performing Hoot!

Gee

Starting Afresh

2010-11-13T13:31:00.002+08:00

I guess it has been ages since I have updated anything on my blog.

I bet that there are no more readers. Haha.

Anyway, what I am going to say in this post is something which many of you are wondering.

1. What happened to me from Jun - Sept?

Okay, before I say anything about the tail, I would like to say that the three months which I suppose to go for my IAP. I did not. The three months where I MIA, I was in a very bad place. Due to all the problems I'm facing at home and all, I was unable to attend my attachment in Australia. Since I didn't give any notice, I failed my attachment. That means I will be retaining three months and I don't really care!

During that three months, I wasn't myself at all. I was depressed all the time and at times I wanted to commit suicide. Because of all that unnecessary stress, my eczema were aggravated and I did not want to come out of the house at all. I would just stay in my room in the darkness till I would go to sleep. That was my life for about 3 months. The worst I've ever been in my life.

2. Why am I keeping a tail?

The main reason for the tail is because of change. After I came out of my stupor and visiting the skin doctor numerous times, I decided to change my life forever! When I went to shave mohawk, I made a pledge to change my attitude, lifestyle and thinking. The tail reminds me of the trials I went through and never going back to that dark place again.

3. So what have I changed?

Firstly is my attitude, for those who have seen me back in school, I don't seem to be that fun, outgoing guy who talks to everyone during breaks and all. I find that during that times I was too distracted and maybe try to distract myself from the problems I faced. Now I've turned my attention towards working harder to strife in this semester. If I don't always talk too much or just alone by myself does not mean I am emo or weird. Its just I do not fee like talking at all.

Secondly is my lifestyle, I have decided to go partially straight edge. For those who do not know what that means. It means that I have given up alcoholic drinks, recreational drugs such as smoking and caffeine particularly coffee. I am also vegetarian on Wednesdays. I no longer drink soft drinks and only drink either water or tea.

Thirdly is my way of thinking, ever since I came out from that dark place, I see the world in a different light. I do not care about material stuff. I do not care about what people think of me. I do not care what you all say. I just care of getting as far as I can in my education that means getting my medical degree, becoming a doctor and help people. And when I am old enough and have enough money. I am getting out of Singapore. I hate this crazy, hectic lifestyle where everything about is money. I want to go somewhere peaceful and stress free. So, I decided to migrate to New Zealand.

4. How about NS?

I don't really care about NS. I just want to get over and done with. Last time I always wanted to go to NS and maybe become a regular but now screw it! I just want to get it over and done with and continue to study.

5. Plans for this semester?

I will be going all out in my fitness and studies. Its literally the last lap already and I've wasted my year 2. The final sprint is now and nothing is gonna hold me back. Nothing. All I want to do is go somewhere I've never been before and that is getting my diploma!

6. Any other things to add on?

Some unimportant things is that I am still crazy over Kpop. I guess its coming to almost a year already and I would say that SNSD is getting better every time they come out with a new song.

The older they get, the more talented they seem to become.

Besides Kpop, I am learning music theory and maybe start producing my own music in the future.

I think that is all I am going to post today. I will definitely be posting more soon and regularly too.

Gee

One more time...AGE!

2009-11-28T22:26:00.000+08:00

HI ALL!!!

Gig in 2 Weeks! Argh! I'm in a pressure cooker. Buva & A-Team expect a lot from us. Hope we can pull it off.

Jamming was awesome. Most of the time we can coordinate but some songs were a bit off.

We still can do it!

Next jamming, no lyrics and no tab sheets! =)

Lazy upload pics now haha

Gee

Konbanwa!

2009-11-08T19:00:00.005+08:00

Konbanwa~

I know, I know, its been ages. Been lazy to update anything. It's like you wanna update but thinking of how much to type puts you off. Then, another day comes and you are more motivated to update BUT you think back of so much more things you wanna add it puts you off again. Nevertheless, I will update sooner or later depending on my motivation. This time, a lot of people have complained that I did not update so here I am!

There will be 3 parts to my update. It can be lengthy I'm warning you.

~~Part I~~

School started like 4 weeks ago and that's how long I have not been updating my blog. Been sick for the first 3 weeks which sucks because the work piles up and being told do to something which I did not expect. This semester is the killer of killers. We have tons of projects but lesser reports to do. That's a good thing in a way but the modules are long and dry. Reminds me of a highway. Most of the projects I was pushed to be the leader I too don't know why. Am I that good? or is it easier to push to someone else? Haha.

NYP Jam and Christmas Gig in about a month. NYP Jam never got back to me! What is their problem! and Christmas gig is a pressure cooker. Buva and gang has high expectations of us and I am freaking out! It's our debut and they expect so much. What happens if we can't deliver? We are so fucked.

We need a jamming session asap!

Now back to simple updates (one liners)

1. Hooked on SNSD for about a month already. They are so cute & hot!

2. Gotta bring my guitar to the repair shop due to intonation problems

3. Addicted to Ocean Avenue by Yellowcard for 2 days

4. I wanna go Zouk out!

5. Starting to learn some dancing. I know...Lame..

6. Epiphone SG sucks! The strings are so high. My fingers hurt!

7. Never use the jamming studios guitars. Its lousy, out of tune and smelly.

8. Got a new handphone number. Mum complain my bill is too much.

9. Went to Chordophone (NYP SO) with Maverich playing the double bass

10. Tomorrow is a monday. How amazing!

11. Got a song book to write my songs. Following Teddy Geiger from 'The Rocker'

12. Addicted to coke for 2 months. Must kick the habit!

13. California legalized weed. I'm so going there next hols!

14. Started wearing a Maori necklace. Looks cool

15. I need to go to a gig. It's a need not a want!

16. Been craving for ice cream the past week. I don't know why!

17. I'm starting to crap on my updates now.

That's part one for ya!

~~Part II~~

Pictures Time.

**Warning** Pictures can be random, stupid, hot, cute, ugly or even just pathetic! Pictures are not in order.

At jamming. The guitar looks nice but actually it sucks.

Tiffany of SNSD. Isn't she cute? Though she has some scandals I don't really care.

Sunny of SNSD, another cu-tie =D

Just don't ask. I was forced!

Hayley's new hair colour. I kinda like it.

Shot of me in action. Mave shot it.

On a solo...

Closing my eyes for no apparent reason

Emma Stone...She is cool!

~~Part III~~

Videos!

That would be all for now!

Gee!

The Update for Ages

2009-10-14T00:59:00.002+08:00

Hey Ya'll!

First of all, thanks everyone for their wishes. Didn't expect so many to have remembered =)

Well, less than a week to back to school. Had to find out my timetable sucks...really sucks! I mean though we do not start at 8am anymore but 3 days end at 6pm, 1 day at 5pm and wednesday 3pm.

What's worst is that we have 7 modules and all are gonna be super long and most likely dry. So how am I suppose to raise my GPA like that. Sheesh.

Have to make the best of it I guess. No point not doing anything and just passing the day. Gotta go out and do it. Nothing ventured nothing gained.

Well besides that, nothing much have happened to me. As you know, I found this job and gosh! its hard. I thought "Ah how hard can it be to sell charity tickets?!". Well its fucking hard! You can get de-motivated in like hours. Not mentioning the pay.

In a way, I'm actually waiting to go back to school and start afresh. Semester 2 here I come!

Wrote 2 more songs. Awesome. However, it doesn't fit with the band unless its an acoustic number or something. If not, it does not quite go.

Well that would have to be it for now =)

Gee out!

A long long time...

2009-10-01T22:08:00.002+08:00

Hey everyone.

I know it has been ages since I blogged. I was kinda lazy to do anything about it. Well, since I have the time now and I am kinda bored I shall do a post.

The last time I blogged it was more of fantasy than anything else. Well, back to reality.

First and foremost, the results came out last week on wednesday and it was devastating! I know, your thinking "Where got?" Well, it was horrible to me. I was quite upset about not pushing myself to my limit. Gotta go all out next semester! Jiayou! Dang dang dang! =)

Today had our class outing I shall call it 'Fun-o-rama MB0805 style!'. I was worried things would not go as plan but surprisingly it was awesome. Played Twister, had SOME dancing & ate KFC. Not forgetting treasure hunt which was kinda short but not bad. I will come up with something more interesting next time =)

The pictures will be up soon. So please wait. I can guarantee you its worth the wait. You will see!

Well got a temporary job as a promoter. Shall go for training tomorrow and see if I am gonna enjoy it. I really hope I can do well. Cause I'm dead bored at home. Haha.

Well I think that is all for now. Will update soon

Gee out!

The Dream & The Reality

2009-09-17T22:41:00.002+08:00

Hello There all!

It has been a damn long time since I had put up a post. Woah it has been almost 2 weeks? So holidays are rather much relief from the hectic lifestyle of an average singaporean student in a polytechnic majoring in molecular biotechnology. After the exams, the feeling of freedom has just overwhelmed me that I was rather confused for a day or two what I should be doing. My parents are pestering me to get off my ass and find a part time job since they kept complaining I slacked through the last semester holidays =\.

Job hunting wasn't fun. I sent like a dozen resumes and none replied. I'm like What the Fuck! At least have the decency to reply my god damn emails! It took me a freaking 2 minutes to type out the email. Well, I guess my credentials weren't good enough for them. So! I have to do it the ole fashion way and find a job through an agency. Those commission suckers. What to do?

Last week was a rather relaxing week for me. We went jamming on Wednesday and we were actually 'In form'. We managed to cover 4 of 6 songs from our list. Great job! Came up with a new tune for a new song and lyrics are slowly but surely flowing it. The video however, I have yet to upload and thus, it is not ready. Kudos to our band! \m/

So! That was the reality and now time for the dream!

I was just wondering last night about how my life would be different if I was in a touring rock band. So I decided why not place a 'dream' post about me being on tour in some country.

It's just a make believe stuff but it can do wonders to your mood. Maybe you guys should try it.

Here it goes:

Woke up in the tour bus at 8am. Had a massive headache from last night concert. It was freaking awesome! I think I never had such a great time like I had last night. Today we are on our way to the next gigging location. Its roughly a 5 hour drive and I heard its much bigger compared to last night so yeah! I can't wait!

-=5.30pm=-

Just came out from sound check. The stage is awesome! It is much bigger like what they said. Fog machines. How cool! Now I have more space to run around like a maniac while my band can jam on it with ease! Gotta get ready for the show at 7pm. Ciao!

-=10.00pm=-

Gig just ended and the crowded was awesome. Maverick body surfed and Syuk broke like 4 sticks I guess. Haha! I think I don't have any more picks cause I threw them all and Atiqah was like woah! Going nuts on stage! It was just the best night. Time to head back to the bus, get ready for some supper and off to bed and home. Miss home since on tour for at least 3 months.

That is it for my 'dream' post. Rather tired of typing. Haha. I shall end here for now. Will be uploading the video soon I hope.

'Dream big, Aim big, Be big!'

Gee out!

It's over but it's just begun

2009-09-03T23:20:00.003+08:00

It is finally over...2 horrendous weeks of preparing for it, 6 papers, 3 last week and 3 this week. It is finally over.

Well a great burden has just been lifted so yeah, at ease for now. But! I got another problem! I'm Sick! Seriously, fucked up. First day of holidays and I AM SICK! Cough, cold, sore throat, body ache but thank god no fever.

Sleep early, drink loads of water and just rest. I think I will be fine by the weekends I hope. =X

Planning to work and jam. So looking forward to jamming. Lots of songs in mind but so limited time. What should we play first? This or that? Up or down? Haha...

Work...Hmm I don't seem to be finding a good job I want. If any one has please tell me! I don't wanna sit at home the whole hols and just waste it!

Well...I think I will be going to sleep now. Nights!

Gee out!

Bring it on!

2009-09-01T01:01:00.002+08:00

Hey!

4 papers down! 2 more! Come on! So close!

Today was MBT. I was freaking out like 2 days before the damn paper. Was like stressed all over till couldn't sleep. However, the paper was alright. I was kind of prepared so hope I did not screw it up!

Let's start from last week.

Friday we ended the paper HBD at 6pm. The paper was do-able cause the lecturer gave us hints for almost the whole paper. Thanks!

It started at 4pm and I finished up by 5.40pm. When I turned around and about to leave, I saw the hall 3/4 empty. I was thinking "Woah! The paper must have been easy".

Left the hall and met with Mave since we are going to Baybeats. Waited for Amas and some other people and we took off. Reached Esplanade at 6.40? Yeah around there and waited for the first band performance which was West Grand. Awesome setlist and songs.

Watched other bands like Calerway (awesome band from kangaroo land), Estranged (nice band from our northern neighbour and GSE (AWESOME band from singapore!)

Calerway songs were surprisingly refreshing since I have never heard of them but they have a hard rock edge which I enjoy. However, I couldn't find any of their songs to download. =(

Met Mave's friends. Nice bunch! Had fun and laughter with them.

Here's a few songs I've enjoyed the past few days:

Awesome song too! by an Aussie Band

This song is very hard rock! 5/5

Got a nice rock edge to it 4/5

The punk side of the band 4/5

Gee out!

One at a time you idiot!

2009-08-27T00:49:00.002+08:00

2 Papers down, 4 more to go!

Come on!!! Please end my agony of studying and sitting in a freezing hall for 2 hours!

Baybeats '09 is just a few days away. Can't wait for it! The only bad thing is that Anberlin is coming BUT on Sunday! I'm like what the fuck man! Next day I have MBT (Please help me god!) which I really have to focus cause for my common test I got a freaking C! So! I need to pull up my socks to my balls and FOCUS!

Today we ended our Marketing paper which was reasonably good, fairly satisfied about today. Yesterday was ABC which was better than I expected so yea kudos! HBD on friday which I'm more or less ready just have to finish up notes and read, remember and relax.

After HBD on friday going to Baybeats Day 1 with Mave. All the music events it will just be us two but somehow we will find someone we know at the event. Hope it's the same man!

Now! On to another topic.

I've just realized I have this habit of learning one song after another. Its not a good thing because once I'm hooked on a song, I will try to learn it then when I'm hooked onto another I try to learn that. So, most of the songs I have learnt are just basically I can play but not mastered. I call this song learning compulsion behavior. People are compulsive shoppers, I'm a compulsive song learner. If you have the same problem, contact me and we can try to work something out.

Cure: Write down the songs I want to learn and discipline myself and TRY to learn one song and MASTER it before MOVING on to the next.

Now on my plate of songs I have at least 10?

Aim: Learn and Master 5 by Sept. Other 5 by Oct!

I can bet more songs will sure come my way. So this post is gonna be one of those many that will hit this blog!

Gee out!

Enter the paranormal!

2009-08-23T01:32:00.004+08:00

3 More days left to the exams!

Can we just like fast-forward this whole event like it never happened? Like Click? Or let some other soul take over our bodies for this one and half weeks?

My dad introduced this show to me. It's called 'Paranormal State'. The title seems interesting but the show itself is exciting. Its similar to Ghost Hunters but a bit scarier. Some call it fake, I call it enjoyable. Deals from Demons to Ghosts to anything that cannot be explained. So yeah! Check it out! Youtube has it!

My fingers are itching to go jamming! I soooooo wanna jam! Its like a drug!

Gee out!

Fuckin' Insomnia

2009-08-21T22:54:00.003+08:00

Hey people!!!

Exams are around the corner and I know most of us are in a pressure cooker.

We can get through this!!!

Been having insomnia the past week? or so. It's fucking irritating. Keep waking up at 2-3pm! How the hell can I study! So I am trying to sleep early and see if it works. If it doesn't I am going! going! going! to get sleeping pills.

Woke up at 3.30 today -.- and was super hungry. So I whipped up a easy dish. Took about 30-45 minutes with all the cutting, cooking and cleaning.

I call it luncheon meat omelette & pan fried spiced potatoes (original)

Yea I know looks like some prata & indian spice thingy. But it's not!

Going to try to get some sleep now. Nights

Gee out

All over you & Retainers

2009-08-20T00:48:00.004+08:00

Having soooo much fun studying HBD so I had to take a break.

Been addicted to this song for at least a day already. Kinda nice.

Another video video is Taylor Swift 'Retainers' video.

Damn she's cute and hot *melting*

It's Late but Timely

2009-08-18T02:28:00.003+08:00

It's 2.29am now and I'm not that sleepy actually.

It's been awhile since I've put up a decent post. Usually its those rush things about school, work and other issues. Since I kinda have the time now, I would like to put up a nice decent one =)

Lets see,

1. Have you ever noticed time been passing rather fast lately, but it has to do with all the work we have. I never seems to end and with the upcoming exams, its really a pressure cooker but it seems that the faster it comes, the faster it will go. Lets just hope that theory actually happens. I can imagine time during the exams passes so slow it feels like eternity and the holiday passes faster than a passing bullet. Whatever happens, we have to live it, love it and feel it.

2. Certain things have been going in my life which I am not going to elaborate on. No point asking me cause I won't say unless I tell you. Been really hectic the last few months and it doesn't seem to end. We all have to go through one thing or another in our life. So it is no different from another person just only the timeframe.

3. I've been waiting for the right time, the right moment but it has not happened yet so I have to just keep waiting.

4. My band! Damn, it's been a long time since jamming. After exams, we are going to rock the damn house down! Both 'The Syndromé' & 'Technikulor'. Been writing up setlist songs for my own band and hope we can get a break through for our band. Though still young, we can push forward and make it through into the local music scene. That shall be our dream ^^

I think that would be it for now. Getting tired. Time: 2.39am

~Be what you want to be, do what you want to do, just don't get caught~

Gee!

Exams are round the corner!

2009-08-17T19:41:00.002+08:00

The exams are almost here! OMG!

I am pushing the panic button! *BEEP BEEP BEEP*

We have just about a week before our very first paper which is ABC (EhhhBeeeSeee) and I am not done with revision!

Two words: FUCKING SHIT!

Comments: All the best to everyone who is in the same shit as me! We can pull through this!

Changed my blogskin like finally. Though its plain, I like it. (I'm not a colourful person -.-)

*Words of Wisdom*

~Some things are not meant to be, but that doesn't mean it cannot happen~

Gee out!

RIP MJ

2009-06-27T17:40:00.003+08:00

Hey guys!

As now many have heard about the sudden death of MJ. I was really shocked about his death. It came to me as a big surprise and sadness overcame me. I have been a big fan of his since I was a young boy when I could start understanding music. My dad would play his CDs and sometimes I would dance to it for my own amusement imitating him on stage. Sometimes we get to see his concerts on the TV and see the screaming crowds when he comes on stage and even before he starts a song, people were already fainting.

Those were the best memories I have of MJ. Though I didn't follow him when he was in the jackson 5. Though his music spans worldwide as the King of Pop and will forever hold the title.

Some of my fave songs from him were Thriller, Beat it, Bad, Billie Jean, Black and white, Man in the mirror, Smooth Criminal and Heal the world.

R.I.P (1958 - 2009)

"The world will never forget your music"

Gee!

Awesome, Awesome, Awesome

2009-06-24T21:58:00.005+08:00

Guys guys guys!

Last saturday was a freaking awesome day! Most must be thinking 'What the hell is this idiot talking about?'.

I shall tell you now. I attended Summerfest'09 held by 987fm. It was a beach party at Siloso Beach and it was just awesome.

This is the story:

Atiqah told me about this party about 2 weeks before the event itself so I was thinking of who I should call. Called Eliz, Gayu, Syuk and of course Atiqah, her BF and her besties. That would make up around 8+ people including me. That would have been more fun and interesting. However, everyone backed out including Atiqah so well, I didn't want to go alone so called Mave, Gerri, Cy?. Only Mave could go so what the heck.

I met Mave at toa payoh station around 2pm and Atiqah was still in 2 minds on whether to go or not. So I was like pestering her to go but she in the end said she wanted to study (wrong move =P). So we reach Sentosa roughly 3pm and the beach was packed! There were hunks, babes, kids, aunties and uncles. You name it they were all there. So me and mave found a shady spot and just chilled there. We talked about things which I kinda forgot but we had chips and water so we just ate and talked. It was really hot so I wanted to go for a short dip so I took off my shirt and jumped into the water. Mave followed. At 5pm we heard that the concert was about to start so we quickly grabbed our stuff and headed to the main stage. It wasn't so crowded and Batucada just started. The mood at that point was rather dead. I think it was the heat. As the time progress and more performances the mood started to pick up. At around 6.30pm we met Shilka, Zubin and Hanah by chance so we all stuck together. By 7.30pm the mood was raging and almost everyone was dancing including me =). R&B, Rock, Hip Hop and some Techno. Imagine me dancing to all haha!

The whole thing ended with Electrico but by then, everyone was tired and most of the people left. So 11pm it ended, me n mave went to find a shower and took a quick bath. We boarded the bus at 12.20am and reached home at 1.10am. I was super hungry and tired but it was ALL WORTH IT! \m/

Picture time!!! (Not in order at all!!!)

More here!!!

2009-06-12T21:40:00.002+08:00

2009-06-06T00:12:00.004+08:00

Hey guys,

It has been ages since I have last blogged. ALOT of things have happened. So let's just start shall we?

Blading!

It has been a long time since I have last bladed. I would say almost 3 years but Snips wanted to go blading last week monday since we didn't have school =P. Met Mop for breakfast at bishan for some nasi lemak which is only $2!!! After breakfast we met up with Pang, Snips and Piggy and took a long bus ride to ECP. I think it was around 45 minutes to an hour. Reached ECP at around 11.15. Snips and Mop rented some blades. The day was just fun. Fell down 3 times but the third time was the best. I won't say you gotta ask!

Staring into the black and white landscape we called Singapore

Posing for the camera!

Just starting the trip =)

The falling of snips...she brought down Carin with her Tsk tsk!

Woooo Wobbly....

More to come =) kinda back dated I know!!!

Die Zwei Besten

2009-05-25T22:52:00.003+08:00

Hey guys!

It's been awhile since I have added a post. I have been busy with reports and other work and worries. However there are some good news!

We had the SCL Benchball & Kick off last saturday which was 23rd May. We competed in the Benchball event. Our team 'Die Besten' competed against 6 other teams and managed to come in 2nd. Sorry guys if I kinda screwed up. Anyway, we did our best and it paid off. Silver medal it is!

The team consisted of Wilson (captain), Jon, Mave, Me!, Sam, Leong, Ze Liang, Zp, Jabz and Zen.

Well done guys! Die Besten Again will come soon!

Our cheer 'MB! HUAH!'

Group pic! With Hanah =P

Team pic (Jabz, Zp and Leong MIA)

Receiving my first NYP medal.

That would be all for the event. I am kinda tired now =)

Gee!

Day Tripper

2009-05-17T21:11:00.003+08:00

Its been a long time, getting from there to here...It's a song lyrics

Anyway its been a long time since I have updated. Yesterday which was a Sat was a fun day. Went out with my aunts and cousin (lind). Went to maché (swiss restaurant yo!). One word "AWESOME". The food there is so gourmet style and best recommended that all dishes should be shared. Few delicious examples "Crepé, Pasta, Pizza, Salad, Gourmet meats". I am like drooling now typing it all out. The set up is also authentic which swiss cottage wood and adorned with old pots and pans. By the way it was at Vivo 3rd floor with a big green sign. Even a blind man could see it but surprisingly it took me 10 minutes to find it.

After the wonderful lunch, my aunt brought us to pasir ris town park for some fishing with my uncle. We took my uncle's lorry and sat at the back. The wind blew my hair all over. Reached around 6.30 and did some fishing till 8pm where we decided to leave. Caught nothing though. Took 53 home and I K.O on the bus haha.

Overall it was an awesome day. Hope to do it again!

At the back of the lorry on the highway! Nice view =)

My hair! I look sleepy =.= Yawn!

Lame joke of the day:

Which famous city we have in Singapore?

Pasir Ris = Paris Sir!

Gee!

Ages man!

2009-05-11T22:03:00.002+08:00

Hey everyone!

It has been ages since I have last blogged. I know my previous post was rubbish and I know people's reactions was like -.- or 0.0 or 0.o or 0_0 yea. But its fun putting up rubbish, clear the head from all that lunatism (if that is even a word).

Things have been rather hectic lately with reports pilling up and deadlines so close and very little resources but I manage to finish 3/4 of it on the weekends and touchup the rest the night before the submission date. However, it's just the beginning. Week 4 and reports are like crap! What happens in Week 12 or week 15 *gasps* We are goners!

Now lets see what I can remember from last week as in what I did?

1. I really hated the swine flu temperature taking, felt like schooling in a prison. I know its meant to protect us and all but why lock up the canteen gates? Not as if pigs are gonna run in. 0.o

2. Some people really have no life. Not gonna mention so much but its like common man! Get a god damn life! Don't ask me =)

3. Weekends were rather hectic, wanted to complete all my reports before going back to school so the nights I can chill!

4. Can't wait for benchball(captain's ball) and Jam & Hop. When is jam & hop? Someone please inform me!

5. Really can't think of 5 so I shall stop here.

Lame joke to end it off.

Why reports make the best murderers?

Cause people are always saying "Reports are killing me!"

I know your reaction already =)

Gee!

Gerard's Theory of Idiotism and Lameness

2009-05-03T01:41:00.004+08:00

Hi there,

I am Gerard M, PhD in Idiotism and Lameness. I have published many journals but it was never seen anywhere. Here are some theories I think you would find relevant in your life.

1. Why chocolate milk is not used to ferment into yoghurt.

This is rather simple theory : Lactose -> Lactic Acid

Chocolate -> Chocolic Acid

That is why it is not used.

2. Why Myspace & Facebook are enemies

Myspace + Facebook = My face + Spacebook (still researching)

3. World is a cooking pan

Animals/Humans/Trees = Ingredients

Oceans/Seas/Lakes = Water to make broth

Global Warming = The temperature to cook us!

Sand and sorts = Spices

What do you get? A nice serving for 1

4. Equations

Lame + Coffee = Very lame and crazy

Coffee + PMS = Don't get near that damn person

Gerard - Coffee & Metal in the morning = Zombie

Gerard + Coffee & Metal in the morning = super hyper active crazy lunatic

Gerard alone = a damn boring person

This shows that Gerard is an unstable subject. Requires stimulation to get things done.

5. Theory of moving islands

This theory have been used secretly by Singapore

Connect 1000 Subs to Singapore in 1 direction and pull it.

Will move the island to any location on earth!

6. Theory of boredom

1. Brain capacity is too big resulting in large areas empty

2. When spaces don't fill up, air becomes stuffy with no circulation

3. Reaches a point where it bursts out and that person starts talking rubbish.

*Danger* Reading of theories may result in mental illness called Bullshitism and No sensinitis.

Thank you for your time.

*Note to readers* If you think all this are true, you really are an idiot =)

Gee!

April-May Post

2009-05-01T19:28:00.002+08:00

Happy May Day! Yea! It's the first day of May and it is so fast coming to mid year. Amazing how time flies.

This week have been a good week. Though got a lot of work, I could finish 90% of it already. That means weekends are free!!! I seriously hate this week's weather. It is so fucking hot! I wake up, go bathe, come out and I sweat! Just even after coming out of the toilet I start to sweat. What is wrong with this weather. GLOBAL WARMING!

On Wednesday, I attended a talk regarding studying in Germany and it was packed. We all had to stand outside. However, the talk was rather interesting. I decided that if I could not get into a local Uni, I may wanna go Australia or Germany to further my studies. Of course I'm looking at how much I'm willing to spend.

Just update on myself, wrote a new song for the band. Still have no title but it sounds great to me =)

Next week may be another busy week but I'm ready for it. I guess. Well that is all for now.

This is Katsudon from the Japanese Stall in South Canteen. Looks cool huh? I added the mayo =P Looks like some kind of gourmet dish!

Gee!

Weekend is here!

2009-04-25T00:33:00.001+08:00

Woo! Weekends = Wake up late!

Well this week have been rather relaxed however chaotic...

Monday - Was a bad first day, had some problems...so yea it sucked
Tuesday - Was better, had a short day and went to PY hse and danced at night
Wednesday - Was alright, had german till 5pm

2009-04-17T03:15:00.002+08:00

Someone once asked me "What is the one song that describes you best?"

I was caught off guard. Never had I thought of it. Ps The person you should know =P

I was like looking through my Itunes and finding a song that suits me. Nothing. So I tried thinking of some songs. Well two songs popped to my head.

1. Wonderwall - Oasis

2. Broken Strings - James Morrison fear Nelly Furtado

I'm lazy to blog out why...If you wanna know just guess =)

Gee!

Cleaning Cleaning

2009-04-14T21:45:00.003+08:00

Woke up at 1.30 today and went down to buy lunch!

Came back and ate it. After eating I HAD to clean my room. My room was messy and dusty so decided to go all out and clean it. Found a big spider at the corner and I vacuumed it =D Take that!!!

But now my room is all clean and nice. Wondering why is so short? Cause I'm lazy =P

Bye guys!

Gee!

Weird...

2009-04-13T00:57:00.002+08:00

Happy Easter Guys!

Ok I'm blogging at 12.57am on a Monday so Happy Belated Easter =D

Today woke up at 7Am, being all blur I went back to sleep. Then I woke up at 3Pm! Got ready and met my mum at the willing hearts and go church from there. 4 Weird things happened to me today, some are not so weird but I find it kinda weird.

1. I left my house and walk below my block, upon reaching an opening, I found a dead pigeon. I have no idea how the head came off but the creature was beheaded. I was like staring at it for 30 seconds only realizing there was no head -.-

2. Reaching a playground near the round coffeeshop I saw a bird perched on the swing. It doesn't look like a crow or mynah but it was brown in colour and looked like an Eagle. But it is not. But kinda cool!

3. Upon taking the bus, I saw this couple, they were like standing one corner hugging and kissing. I tell you, I just wanted to kill myself. Common guys! Get a damn room! I boarded the bus and there they are! Beside me. The girl was like hugging and lying down on him. She was like I just dunno what to say.

4. I got down at Bendermeer and walked along the canal. I noticed a family of mice or rats I dunno was running along the water's edge. It looked cute was like the Dad was leading the way, then they entered the drain.

After mass, I went for an Easter dinner and came home in time for Harper's Island. =)

Tomorrow will be a long day too. NE proj. meeting and another Easter Dinner!

Well that is all for now. Nights people!

Gee!

L-I-F-E

2009-04-09T13:36:00.002+08:00

Hey today post will be about something I have always been talking about. Life!

The way I live it is different from everyone else. Different people have different opinions over life but for me I take it as an adventure.

"Life is like an empty book, you write the stories. Relive it when your old. Live your life!"

Well in human concept I find it true. God gave you life since a baby but you don't know your future. So what do you do? You take it day by day, doing something new everyday. In a way your writing your life story every minute, hour, day. Right now while typing this I am doing something new which I had never done before. The part where you relive it is when your old you can tell your grandchildren how your life was. Good or Bad, its still a story you can relive. So just live your life. You only got what maybe only 70 trips around the sun? Make full use of it. Just do something you enjoy and not something you hate (besides your job). But other than that, just live it. We have like only 50 more years? That ain't very long you know! Sooner or later you find your getting married, having kids, sitting at home at retirement and then, who knows.

Guys! Take this chance and just have fun! ; )

Gee!

The beginning to the end (Cycling n Chalet)

2009-04-07T22:00:00.005+08:00

Wow it's been almost a week since I have blogged. Today will be an exceptionally long post. Gonna be from the very beginning when I left the house till the time I return. Loads of pics will also be included. =D

Day 1 : 1215 - 1430

I left my place at 12.15 which just started raining real heavily but I didn't want to leave any later or else I maybe late. Wore my windbreaker and left in the heavy rain. I took the usual route to ECP which in normal dry weather would only take me 1 hour. However today was exceptional, it was really pouring down and lightning started to appear. So I had to seek shelter at an underpass at the expressway. Thank god I waited because it got heavier and thunderstorms were really booming loud. Waited around an hour and it stopped lightning so I took my chance and continued. I wasn't fully drenched however my face was already spitting water out of my mouth every 50m. People thought I was like some kind of homeless person cycling in the rain. After a treacherous journey which could have almost ended my life with being struck down my lightning, I arrived at ECP and the clouds were starting to clear showing the clear blue sky.

Day 1 : 1430 - 1700

I cycled to the chalet at the main entrance of the GoldKist Resort and started making phone calls and asking people where are they. Besides me, Samson reached around 2.35 so I met him and walked to the entrance. Called people again and asking where are they. So we stood at the bus stop near the entrance and just waited. About 10 mins, Victoria reached, so we went to find her and 10 mins after that Gaya and Diana arrived and I went to find Gao. So we all met back at the chalet main building and chit chat till the whole gang arrived at 4.30+. I asked them buy me something to eat so they bought me chee kuay. Thanks! It was nice. Went to our room which was quite big and had 2 beds. Unpack all our stuff and got ready for the cycling expedition. Gaya, Ping Ying, Diana and Shaun didn't want to go so they stayed in the room and watch tv, play murderer etc.

Day 1 : 1700 - 2330

So now it was 5pm and the cycling expedition had Me,Gao,CY,Vic,Sam,Ken and Jiaqi. They all went to rent bikes while me and gao waiting for them. After they came back, I gave a short briefing and took a before expedition photo. We set off for our little expedition. Made stops here and there and took nice pictures. They said it would take 2 hours but it seem to take 6 hours. Lol. It was getting dark at Sunplaza park and I told Gaya and Diana that if we were not back by 7+ they may leave, so I had to call them and ask them if they wanted to leave because we weren't gonna be back in time. Very sorry we ditched you guys =( It was 9+ when we arrived at Changi Village so I told them to go to the park first while I went to get new brakes cause mine had worn out and used my front wheel breaks which it's damn dangerous. Kept hitting my balls whenever I brake to hard. It really hurts! After I changed it they were lost. So I had to find them and gather all together again. Vic and Cy wanted to return the bikes and take a bus back but the shop at Changi close at 8pm so we were too late already. Had no choice, we took a break at Changi Village and they ate while Me,Sam and Gao just look over. At 1opm we left for 'home'. It was a beautiful night. Cool air, nice scenery, good company, it was just perfect. Reached back at 11.30 and most of us had big butt pains! Sitting on the bike for 6 hours what do you expect.

Day 1: 2345 - 0130

At 11.45, Me and Gao were getting hungry so decided to go to the coffeeshop for a Dinner/Supper. Sam, Shaun and Jiaqi accompanied us. Gao couldn't wait and ordered his 'Just Peng Yong Gao Hor Fun' and I had Ikan Bilis Fried Rice. Ate and chat till 12.30 I think and decided to head back. Gao and me took a detour to 7-11 and bought beer and Mac for apple pie! Yum! Mac and apple haha! Ok lame. Went back and I took a nice hot shower.

Day 2: 0145-0400

Went to play cards, drank beer, played murderer and talk, laugh and joke. Samson had a sore throat. Make him sound soooo manly la. Damn funny keep asking him say sentences and keep making fun of him and ahem! Hehe. At 4am I decided to catch some shut eye but was still quite awake.

Day 2: 0630 - 1100

Woke up by noises and just couldn't really go back to sleep so I woke up and took a stretch. Soon the rest woke up. Only me, Sam, Kenny, Shaun and PY slept. Woke up wanted to see sunrise at 7+ so I lied down but then I missed it! Anyway was cloudy so can't see much. Soon all got up and me and Sam lead CY to the Macs. Went there wanted to eat but CY had the breakfast vouchers for the buffet breakfast so me and Sam took it. Hehe. Had a damn hearty breakfast for a damn long time. Ate till I wanna burst. After the lovely breakfast and countless cups of orange juice I met Gao at the beach and walk and talk about live, love and anything under the sun literally. Haha. Details of the talk is too lengthy for this post =D Went back at 10am and chilled till 11am when we checked out.

Day 2: 1100 - 1730

I took off on my way home, this time it was scorching hot! Wearing slinglet I was still sweating! But I took it as a journey, though tired, I look at the sea and just enjoy the day. My mum called me see if I wanna go willing hearts and help for awhile so I decided what the heck go for awhile. Reached there around 1230 and help out. Took a short rest and followed Uncle Charlie take a fridge. I left the place roughly 4.30. I reach back I totally forgot my keys! and no one was home! Good combination. So what to do? Sit there and wait. Waiting till my mum came home.

Things I've learnt: 1. Distant covered : 60+ km (new achievement)

2. Discovered myself

3. Understood people

4. Realize things I never really did

5. Enjoyed good company

The day helping out

2009-04-01T00:19:00.002+08:00

So today wasn't feeling so well, my pills made me abit sleepy so I couldn't go play badminton. Sorry guys. After sleeping till around 4pm, I followed my mum to some charity organisation "Willing Hearts". They help deliver food to the poor, churches and some centres. It's run by a family so its all family oriented. Went there around 5+ and help pack rice. 5 bags of 50Kg into bags of 2.5kg so you do the maths. After that, had dinner with the family. Loving family, eating there is like eating in your own home. Had wonderful home cooked food and after that helped back bread for today. About 364 packets but we did only around 160 and we left at 10+. Overall I'm contented knowing people are getting food today.

Well, nothing much going on now, may update tomorrow or the next day or the next day........

Nites!

Music: Essence of the soul?

2009-03-29T23:00:00.002+08:00

Hey guys,

Today blog post will not be about my day but rather something I thought about. Someone once said "Music is the essence of the soul". How true is that?

Well music is all around us and whether you notice it or not it's there. Just imagine a world without music. Life would be colourless (not literally). It would not be the world we know. Full of expression and emotion. Music creates life! Whether your angry, happy, sad or whatever music shows that. It may be classical or metal it really doesn't matter it shows that we are alive. Even animals need music. Music is something essential in all life. It's a daily supplement which keeps us going and never stopping.

Music too encourages the soul. When someone is feeling down, they listen a certain song which may lift their spirits or when your in love. Therefore music is really an essence of the soul. Just think, when was the last time you listen to a song?

Body and soul are just 2 objects. Music brings both into connection giving us the life we have. So to those who love to listen to music, keep listening! To those not listening to music, start listening! and to those creating music, keep doing what your doing!

Gee out!

Peanut butter & Jamming!

I know...I have not posted in quite awhile cause I was rather lazy =D

Today, we had another jamming session! Met Diana and Eliz in the train going to Bugis for jamming. Too bad Gaya couldn't come. Hope you can make it next time =) Anyways, we reached Bugis Mrt around 2.40pm and all were there in time. Good job =P We took our time chitchatting while walking to the studio. Reached around 2.50pm so it was a 10 minute walk. Honestly, the place is good! Beat Merchant Studios, one of the best place for jamming. Would rate 4/5 star! I booked the biggest room. So we went in, looked around and was amazed. Had 2 guitar amps, 2 bass amps, drum with double pedal and loads of space.

We set up everything and just messed around for 15 minutes. We played Homecoming, That's what you get, Check yes juliet, Kalifornia and our band original song "Fallen for you". Our new single was not recorded. Sorry. We had a great time hope the rest had did too.

Here are some pics:

A tiring, itchy, dirty and freaking cold day!

2009-03-09T20:59:00.003+08:00

Hey'all,

Today will be a long post, it more like a story...

Well I woke up at 7.30 and made myself some eggs and coffee and packed for today expedition. Called Syuk twice which he was still sleeping. I was thinking to myself if he wasn't awake by 9am I don't care and go back to sleep. He called me back 20 mins later so it was still on. So I left my house at 8.45am and started my journey to east coast park. I expected it to be a 2 hour journey but it was like only 1 hour so I was kinda fast. While going there, clouds started to gather and I was praying and hoping it wouldn't rain. I reached at around 9.50am and met Syuk at 10.35am. Don't ask me what happened between that 30mins or so cause the only thing i remembered was taking a break and eating my bread. Met him at Area H of ECP. Took a break cause by then I was already tired. So we set off at 10.55am towards the Bedok park connector. It was like 6Km I suppose.

On the way it started to get dark and could hear thunder but we didn't care. Reaching bedok reservoir, it started to pour and pour and pour. So we switched over to the Tampines park connector and headed towards sun plaza park. On the way we saw a malay guy in a wheelchair and so Syuk told me we should help so I asked him to go while I took care of the bike. So he pushed the guy to the busstop. Good Deed of the Day Syuk! After that, we made our way to Sunplaza park and crossed over to Pasir Ris Park Connector. Don't forget it's still raining. By here we already covered at least 15-18Km. We took the route towards downtown east and headed towards changi beach. Yes Changi Beach. It was like 7-8Km and by now i'm like super damn tired already. Just going up hill I had to push my bike. Up and down and up and down and we arrived the Loyang Park Connector. It would take another 5Km to reach Changi Beach so that's makes around 28-30Km. Made it to Changi Beach in one piece but all soaked. Head to toe but that ain't the end.

We decided to take a break at one of the shelter at Changi Beach and eat some snacks. Once! we started off again, it started to pour and I mean REALLY POUR. The wind and rain really cause a chill. We carried on stopping and carrying on. We couldn't take it man it was freezing! We were still in Changi Beach we haven't got on the coastal park connector. Once we reach the coastal connector. It seems like forever. Strong winds! Heavy Rain! Tired! gives you 7.9Km makes it eternity literally I was sooooo drained mentally and physically. Syuk was like freezing hahaha!

Imagine, a straight road for 5km, strong hurling winds and rain and a few shelter stops only. It was literally self-torture. I was shivering, totally soaked and syuk was like wanna give up. Lucky you didn't man! Hoho. It is just just just WOW! It was already 2+ pm and we had like 1/3 journey left. Around 2.45 we finally reached ECP and it was still raining, I'm tired, itchy, dirty and cold to death! We really had to take a lunch break. He ate Mee Rebus and I had char kuay teow! Woohoo! So after that amazing lunch though it was not so amazing but when your tired, anything is amazing haha.

So at 3.30 we left, syuk took his way and I took mine. Back the same way in the rain and that sucks! I reached home at 6+ =) I was like so indescribable but it was a fanstatic day. Rain and all gives the thrill. For those who wanna go PLEASE! bring a poncho or windbreaker and something warm if you know it's gonna rain non-stop AND mentally and physically fit. =)

Now while typing these, I'm wearing a jacket and long pants. So I think I got a chill. Hope to be better tomorrow. Here are some pics of today

Estimated Distance Travelled today = At least 51Km

On the way to ECP, decided to take a picture of the old Kallang Stadium. Once it was buzzling with life now an abandoned place.

Taking a break before meeting Syuk before it rained. Nice view!

Met Syuk at Area H and just chilling before starting the trip. Look like Mat sia!

While breaking took this pic, a deserted lone beach. So cool man.

At loyang park connector, all tired.

Umm took it at Changi Beach before the heavy downpour.

Waiting for the rain to break, can see the left part is all fogged up.

We are tired and Syuk looks like he wanna die! HAHA

My 'penat' face

Back at ECP after the washing from the sky, all wet!

Thought of the day

2009-03-06T23:20:00.002+08:00

Thought of the day: Life is like a empty book, it is us who writes the novel

Well it came to me yesterday while taking a cat nap. Had things running through my mine so I came up with this thought. In a way it is true, life is nothing if we don't make a difference. Some people thinks life is worthless. Wake up! It is you who makes it worthless. You gotta make something of it if not why the hell are we here. Some people take to the fullest and that people know what they are doing. So it was rather a good thought. For those out there feeling depressed or life is like shit. Think again, you make what your life is now. It's time for a change! As obama would say "It is time for change!" Hehe =)

Mandolin Rain

2009-03-05T21:22:00.003+08:00

This song is awesome...

Anyway, I have not been blogging for awhile and Buva was complaining is dead. -.- So past few days have been rather okay, yesterday (Wed) went to Changi Beach with Syuk not too look for gays but play guitar! Reached there around 12.30 and felt like shit! cause i get bus sick easily. Felt like puking and just do nothing. He reached 15 mins later and when to find a shelter to jam. It was a good day, nice weather, windy the scene is just awesome! So we decided to figure out the bass tabs for our band original song shhh =) and come up with variations for it. Since it was a good place and nice scene I decided to play Jason Mraz "I'm Yours" and it was like i was in a music video hahaha! Syuk came in with some tapping of the guitar and just played along and it was cool, wanted to take a vid but couldn't get the rhythm again so too bad. Came home around 6.45 and the bus ride was like damn bloody long! I think it was like one half hour.

Today, did nothing much, just woke up at 11am, watched tv, ate my lunch, took a nap and now watching tv again. Anyway Happy Birthday Fatin-ah! Remember practice your guitar ar? That's your present =D

Mood: Just wanna stone man!

That's all for now ciao!

I'm Just sitting at home and rotting!

2009-03-02T00:27:00.003+08:00

Hey guys,

Well today is Sunday...Wait it's monday morning. Nothing much have been happening the past 2 days. Yesterday woke up about 10am...yes I know it's early not late (typo la ah pang) but who cares...got up, brushed my teeth and well just watched tv and played spore till around evening and just watched tv till i went to bed at 3am! HAHA. Was online the whole day, talked to syuk, gaya, eliz who else? Oh yea i found out from Eliz that there are people scared of balloons and peaches and pickles and COTTON BALLS!!!! of all things cotton balls...so cute furry balls...ok that just sounded so wrong! Anyway they were like scared to death when they see it a start running for their lives as though its gonna kill them. I honestly think its a mental disorder not a phobia. Common! Cotton balls?!

Today hmm, I woke up at 2pm and had my lunch and watched the Foo Fighter's concert Live at Wembley. It was freaking awesome man! ROCK ROCK ROCK WOOHOO. Went to church at 4.50 and came home to play spore. The best joke was that i played for 3 hours straight and when i ended the game, I FORGOT TO SAVE!!! How smart am I? Anyway, the game is fun so i dun mind playing it again however its gonna take another 3 damn hours to get where i stopped.

Well I feel like eating bread and kaya right now...I shall go make some ciao!
