First Singapore report

2007-06-30T01:41:00.000+08:00

gained three kg in three days back in sg..

gosh.. is food here really THAT good?

Its been cool so far.. caught up with loads of peepz thus far.. mambo nite heeee... and it just gets better..

everybody's still so farny and interesting, singapore's stupid humor rocks man..

caught transformers like everybody else.. 4.5/5.. best comic book adaptation thus far.. maybe its about time spider-man retired...

thanks zhen for helping us get S$50 hugo boss 100ml colognes.. u da best!!!

oh well.. tired.. tmr's bbq cancelled DAMMIT!!!!!! but its oh kay.. i'm meeting shaun (FINALLY AT LONG LAST!!!) and charles and kok for dinner and bowling (??).. heh hehz...

wow wad an awesome holiday.. just kicking back and relaxing.. no worries.. no cares.. just me and myself doing stuff i wanna do..

its wierd how people typically stereotype metalheads as crazy wierd human beings.. till they meet me, and find out its true.. =)

love me for who i am.. but don't dispise me for not being someone u want me to be, or think i should be..

just had this wierd thought.. I think "looks" is just such an overstatement in people's perception of it today.. being anything more than being presentable compromises your character and who you really are.. and i think its so true.. not that its wrong all the time, there are times when it is apropriate to look your best for the occasion, but just wanting to be well carried constantly all the time in the presence of strangers is just such a distraction.. i just hate feeling the need to being more than who i am for the sake of my image.. who i am, what i present, is what there is.. what i do, everything it signifies, is from my heart, no gimmicks, no tricks.. if i didn't want to do something for someone, then would i not do it? to do for the right reasons, for our principles, and not for the "show" should be our goal..

maybe thats why people turn rebellious, to stand for something society is fast against.. or maybe to stand with society against what they would call a "rebellion".. many a times i think to myself, Christ is not a fashion.. that doesn't mean we don't comform with each other in His name in various manners (e.g. fellowship, p&w) obviously, but that in itself can mean to stand against what the world believes in the fashion/concept of absolute "individuality" or "individualism", or maybe the want to become part of a "fashion" through religion, or maybe even to stand FOR avoiding falling away from our religious believes because of what the world believes religion to be, a weak dying excuse for living, with its principles fleeting away.. Dead useless human egos, esp so for guys.. such a bizarre issue.. i'm still searching for answers, nothing is set in stone yet.. totally random thoughts man... its 2am.. cut me some slack..

anyways out.. wanna slp and finish qt..

stay metal!!!

Fresh revelations

2007-05-22T02:50:00.000+08:00

Looooong and tiring day.. Had a few things on my mind, but I have to ask for more grace and wisdom in my life..

Had several fresh revelations.. But otherwise a lousy studying day..

Had an awesome worship jamming discussion time.. Ambrose really hit the point, hope he felt the same way too..

AANNNnndddd... WILLL be getting my DW 5002AD3 soon!!!!!!!!! YEAAAAAAA!!!!!!!

In the next week or so.. heehee...

Time to slp its 5 am already.. sam stayed at my place till 2.30 just now to finish up his assignment, but absolutely no complains, just very happy i could be of use to someone.. seems the drummers bond is now pretty strong.. =) DRUMMERS OF HOPE UNITE!!!!!!

sometimes i feel my troubles and problems are nothing with God around.. Haa..

Though a problem i'll have tmr would be staying awake through 4hrs of lec and 3 hrs of tutes while getting only 4.5 hours of slp?!?!?!?!? ARGHHHH!!!

Buhbye peepz better slp now..

No particular topic #1

2007-05-15T19:51:00.000+08:00

Awesome-ness..

Wad a great day.. just had a fantastic exam.. was pretty fun.. loved every minute of it..

Received my Arch enemy DVD in my mail today.. almost crapped my pants.. i bought it off ebay for A$17?!? How amazing is it? Its selling online without shipping costs for A$34!!!!

Anyways.. there has been so much going on nowadays.. But it's strange i feel absolutely in control of my direction in life and although things are all happening so fast, I seem to be able to cope better than ever!

Check this out.. a custom made snare drum by a guy called Paul Warry of Metro Drums.. I emailed him and he replied asking i would like to make an appointment to drop by his workshop.. Boy do i ever.. But i've not enough funds to facilitate all my spending.. thus i've decided to hold back for alittle while more..

SPeaking of which, I'd also like to own this cheap piece of guitar accessory.. Yes its pretty ordinary.. yes its not toooo versatile.. But also, yes its cheap and its worth its price.. Never the less i'd like to own it..

Also, my conquest of obtaining a DW 5002AD3 may soon be shattered, Ranking music in SG is selling it for like S$718?!?!? Ebay sells it for S$590 including shipping.. but strangly the person told me it only comes with a soft case.. Contrary to what the DW.com webpage advertises..

But..

Enough of the spending, i've got a hugh commitment in the upcoming year for my money.. So certain things would have to wait~

Out.

Ok Wooo

2007-05-12T18:01:00.000+08:00

2007-03-21T23:13:00.000+08:00

check out the metallica flaming skull man! sweat!!!!

how cool is that?!?!?!?!?

check nightrage out.. i reckon you've probably heard of them before, they've been having tons of airplay on local radio stations yer noe.. btw their smash hit #1 single is playing right now..

i wonder what makes metalcore such a trend? sure most are bad, but there are pretty awesome ones here and there.. like god forbid and all that remains, and possibly into eternity depending on how u genre-lise your music..

Oh kay.. so last week mars volta came.. and last week, they conquered.. big time..

Seriously, almost THE best live band ever.. the 8-piece live band were tight, awesome and absolutely insane, playing intricate melodies they just thought of 2 seconds ago, and somehow maganging to have all members improvising as if it had been practicing for hours..

Cool stuff huh..

Next gig would have been Dave matthews band, but they have been postponed, so i guess RED HOT CHILI PEPPERS NEXT!!! Oh yeah...

Enough about bands.. Oh plus i bought a crap load of DVDs to watch.. heh hehz...

Life is good.. Food's good.. School's good.. Just had an exam yesterday.. Cool...

Taking charge of a society's finances ain't an easy task.. I discovered, but no regrets in taking up the treasurer position in ccm though.. Love doing it, love the challenges i face..

Anyways.. school rocks.. and today's careers fair said it.. I mean, two years before i actually graduate i actually go for a careers fair?!?!?

Yup

Ok bored now.. buhbye..

I'll be heading to melb next next week for a whole week for relaxation!!!

Varun my friend, we shall meet.. and eat curry.. lots of curry...

and ondeh ondehs...

and maybe the occasional shashimi..

Take care all.. see u next time i see you...

IronS!

Oh kay

If you're Christian-phobic, u may puke by the time this post ends, and please, please by all means by-pass this post. Otherwise, i encourage you to read through and enjoy my tiny little thoughts.. Remember no arguements or debates, thats not its purpose..

Ok.. Sooo.... I didn't do well for my exams.. Awesome.. But you know what? It doesn't matter, cause I know it is more than just this.

Dedicated to Jesus Christ, saviour of my soul.

Random thought 1)
Really brought me through the exams and the tough times and incredible resposibilities.. You know, its always easier said than done.. And when the going gets tough, we usually just stop and deviate..

Random thought 2)
I think I would've gone insanely berserk if I wasn't thought something called quiet time..

Random thought 3)
And never EVER think you'll get lucky when it comes to God.. You don't go to him only during difficult times.. he honors those who honor him.. You'll have to play your part too, don't expect a miracle if you haven't been putting into practice what God has given you.. And in all circumstances pray.. dun let your surroundings affect you, but also don't outcast the rest of the world, because Jesus didn't come to preach to the converted.. The character you portray, the actions you take, the methods/styles you exercise are what the world sees you as, can you say that you've been a good example for them? Do you think that you're being "good" enough? I know its not about being "good" perfect, whatever.. But shouldn't we all try our darn hardest? I know i should, hopefully i am.. How about you? Are we hypocrites ourselves? Through our actions do we allow people to label us as hypocrites?

Random thought 4)
Chistians have never had an easy life.. Agreed.. I've had a life of suffering, maybe difficult to see on the surface, i'm just not that emotional, i believe a guy has to stand on his two feet as well.. but then again, i love suffering.. It seems strange i like to concentrate alot more on suffering instead of good things.. But deep down inside, i know i feel that way only because i know that suffering brings out the best in me, and it brings out more out of me.. Treasure suffering as a time where u can plung yourself straight into the mud pit and dive deeper into the abyss.. Because as u hold on to what you have and come out stronger than ever, you'll be glad u went in.. Yes?

Really random thought 5)
Do not do a sing-a-long session.. Mean and understand every single word.. If you don't mean it, don't sing it.. Go check out what it means and then sing it with full conviction.. Don't sing as a formality, as a past-time, sing it because you know you want to.. I'm very afraid that one day the contemporary music that we play will become bigger than the words they are being played to.. Sometimes I come across this word called "fallout", and i really wonder how many people know its meaning.. Or bother to even find out.. Not that I'm trying to fault, but it just bothers me a little bcause of my wierdness..

Last but not least.. Do not judge, and pray that u practice what u know from what you've read, and not on what you've seen or heard..

Just some really really random thoughts..

I apologise if I don't reflect absolute perfect values, God created me only human and I'm really trying my best.. If you have thoughts do share with me, or if i'm wrong somewhere do prompt me too.. But NO arguements.. please...

Ok u may puke....

now.

=)

Hmm.. this post seems quite fierce hor?

dmb

2006-11-28T23:44:00.000+08:00

ARGH im just so excited bout muse.. Crap man.. Sure can't slp tonite man.. Damn..

=)

Whew

2006-11-11T19:36:00.000+08:00

My internet had been down for the past two weeks..

And i'm glad it went down at THE most appropriate of times..

I didn't mean that sacarstically, I mean it..

Past two weeks = Start of final exams

No internet = FOCUS

Yea, and I really pushed my self-disclipline to my limit.. I'm really proud to announce that I've come out broken and torn, but wounds heal don't they.. And isn't it the human spirit to pick ourselves back up and continue, stronger than ever? hahaaaa

Right...

I grew in more ways than one during this perplexing time i had.. And all that suffering crap was worth it.. Even if it doesn't turn out the way i intended it to be at the end (for the slower ones, i.e. if i don't do too well), at least its an accomplishment i can be proud of.. Did i work my ass off? Yea, i did.. Did i ask for it? Probably...

Now i just need noise.. Alot of noise..

I'd be heading back to Singapore in 11 days time and i'm not pumped about it yet.. But thats onle because i have another two more papers to go.. But given the prep i've done throughout the semester, I don't think they'd give me too much stress.. The Management paper today almost killed me... It was basically THE exam of the semester... Oh well.. I just got tickets to the Mars Volta gig.. Really looking forward to it.. =)

Next week Seminar sat-sun.. Sun nite its A.F.I. time!!!!

Yea... Pop music... Oh how i missed thee... Did i mention my nevermore gig on my last post?

Anyways nevermore killed... They were awesome musicians..

I've done a gigs section so check it out.. Boring but nevertheless its useful for me, actually maybe its useful only for me.. Haha.. anyways if you're bored just click on it and be entertained by my stupidity..
*Bows*

Until next time.. I'm trying to put up some banners at the side.. Still figuring out..

Oh yeah, just in case you haven't noticed i've changed my song!!! haa... as usual, i bet all u peepz would love it..

Excel assignment

2006-10-25T18:29:00.000+08:00

I almost died trying to complete my excel assignment..

Prayer pulled me through though..

Anyways its done now and i've got a ton of studying to do till i get back to Singapore..

Responibilities piling up on my shoulders..

Oh yea.. And Megadeth rocked..

The best gig i've ever been to.. It out-best gigged the previous best gig to become the current best gig EVER..

Medageth were absolutely ON form and sent a non-stop barrage of classics to the crowd.. Boy, it was classic gig, probably would be one of the gigs-of-my-life.

Two great gigs in one solid week.. Happiness ensues...

Arch enemy and soulfly were great too.. And it rained!!! Awesome stuff... So we were moshing in the rain.. Heeeee...

peace selllls... But who's buyin'???

YEAHHHHh....

Ok i shall do a recap of gigs i've been too.. Yea i should add this into my others section..

Ann street bridge

2006-10-19T03:01:00.000+08:00

(to the tune of London Bridge Is Falling Down)

Ann-street on-ramp was falling down, falling down, falling down....

Ann-street on-ramp was falling down, my fair Mayor.

Going out to the enginneers who are taking an extra forth day to try fix the bridge...

KSE

2006-10-17T23:40:00.000+08:00

KILLSWITCH ENGAGE KILLED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

BEST LIVE ACT I'VE EVER SEEN. PERIOD.

TRUELY AWESOME GIG.....

They took my expectations.. and rocketed it up into space..

Really really great gig..

My neck feels like its split in two.. don't get me started on my back..

But all in the name of fun and entertainment..

The crowd surfers were really out there tonight.. Massive numbers of crowd surfers...

Oh boy..

Pity the security..

AHHHHH!!!! GREAT STUFF!!!

And saturday's MEGADETH... Oh boyyyy.................

Hehehehe.... Its one exciting week..

I'm stupid.. Everybody's wiser than me..

2006-10-17T00:12:00.000+08:00

EDITED

There's so much to say about metal and angry music that I just wanna voice out on..

Narrow mindedness and pure ignorence to the possible consequences it brings.. You know what position it puts me in? Don't speak of something you know absolutely nothing of.. Careless words shows your blatent disregard for the opportunity given to you..

But my integrity's in such confusion that I can't be bothered to carry on..

EDITED... Cut short.. Morals being questioned.. Blar blar... Everybody's a rat.. I treasure true friends, they are the ones who present themselves as they are.. Not some fake image wannabe..

Ok back to happy news =)

Killswitch Engage gig TOMORROW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

MEGADETH gig SATURDAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

You know, one thing i really miss is my drum set... Sometimes humans need their favourite past-time to stay happy... Try taking away my housemate's laptop and see if he smashes your face to pulp.. Haha.. no he won't, he'd just be a little angry and start poking your arm with his index finger... Heeee..

Seriously.. Tomorrow its gonna be 4 fantastic hours of music.... I think i'd be so happy i'd pee on my pants.. Musical jubilation man!!! My neck is going to be sooo sore...... Well, at least I have four days to rest till the next swing-head-till-it-becomes-sore gig..

Sometimes its just sad when the only time I feel I quench my thirst in music is during gigs.. Because there isn't really any where else as musically engaging... Not like in Singapore where Jo always challenges me with his wierd-ass 11/8 beats...

And back to topic.. KILLSWITCH TOMORROW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

ARGHHHHHH!!!!!!! KILL-SWITCH KILL-SWITCH!!!!!

heeeeee.... I'd like to reinterate that Killswicth Engage sings extremely positive songs and Megadeth in NO WAY base their songs on "death" or being "deaf".... Get those stupid stereotypes out of your head...

And if 4 hours of music tomorrow is groovy... Saturday's Gigantour featuring Megadeth is going to be..........

6 &(*$&% HOURS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

oh my...

I'm gonna dehydrate from all that moshing..

Note that moshing is not violent.. Its just that we don't fight in the streets, we mosh.. Sure, people do get injured in mosh pits, but that was never the purpose of pits... Its friendly moshing all in the name of interest and leisure.. Not convinced? Try it for yourself.. Don't want to? Then don't say anything you know nothing of..

Done.

I would appreciate if you could kindly please remember not to judge or speak of something you know nothing of.. I know its the third time i've said it.. But anyways Thank you for your cooperation =)

Cheers~

Remember, don't trust on your own strength or wisdom Ed..

Dum dum

2006-10-03T00:44:00.000+08:00

Its 2am.. Finally, my assignments are all done and whats left is my presentation next week..

I've been darn busy..

The BLS gig last week was classic though..

So far so good, hopefully i can maintain my grades from last sem..

Thanks for e cd guang, we'll settle when i get back.. Can't wait..

Which reminds me i'd be going bangkok in dec.. Yeaaa.. With family.. Its been a long time since my family holidayed..

Got my final semester exam predicted time table today.. Extremely good as i'm getting ard three days break for each paper.. Although it literally lasts through the whole University exam date schedule, 4/11 till 17/11.. I'm fortunate enough to get very equally spaced out exam dates for my five subs.. More time to focus for each subject..

Tired.. Need slp.. Continue later..

Last week had weekend marathon.. My frail body can't take it..

Headings are useless..

2006-09-16T02:03:00.000+08:00

Well well, now when u least expected, Eblogger strikes yet again......

Get it?

Eb+blogger=Eblogger??

HAHAHAHAHAHA!!

No?

Oh kay..

hmm....

Erm, its 4am and im wide awake.. Getting ready for my exam in about 4 hours time...

Nothing like a cold morning jog to keep me senses peppy..

And some of trivium's latest seriously-kick-lots-of-ass record.. I just keep screaming detonation for no particular reason whatsoever... Imagining im Matt Heafy... This is really a keeper record.. You know how old people can claim how they are de true metalheads.. Like "I've been hearing metallica like since twenty years ago.. You?", and all we can come up is "Nah.. I was still trying to walk then.. though i've heard their recor......", and start hearing them laugh at you.. Well, now our generation has our own legends-in-the-making..

One fault wif the album though.. Listen to this..

Track one : Ignition
Track two : Detonation
Track three : Entrance to the conflagration
Track four : Athem (We are the fire)

Notice the supposed flow? Ignition to detonation, to entrance to the conflagration, and to (We are the fire)? Oh btw, conflagration means a large destructive fire. Its like saying, they are the fire which starts off as an ignition, followed by the detonation, which is essentially the entrance, or the source of a huge fire, and claiming that they ARE the fire... I guess when they we are the fire, i think they want us to put it into our context, so its to say that we the listeners are, or can be that fire they are writing about.. Hmm.....

How stupidly cheesy...

Oh and yes, i think i've just discovered a second fault i have with the album.. WHERE ARE THE SLOW SONGS??? Why does every song seem to be like a play-it-damn-fast-so-no-one-knows-my-singing-is-bad song? No kick ass one or sanitarium-type songs here??

Come to think of it.. Its not a ground breaking album of sorts.. But i definately feels that its a classic in its own right..

Got my a.f.i. tixs this morning.. As usual ground mosh tix.. Sold out within half an hour..

But its an all ages gig.. Me thinks not much moshing's gonna occur on the night.. So maybe i can kick back and actually listen for the mistakes the bands makes through the night...

Nah.... I'll probably charge in head first...

Ok.. Wasting too much time..

Bye.

Final note, congrats apple pie on doing so well.. Better than my results lor.. Hee..

Featuring local performers like Ginette from ASTREAL!!!!!! YEAHH!!!!

Go Astreal go.. Go Astreal go......

And others as well...

Can't wait to go back Singapore and hopefully record a cd before.. you know....... I wonder how long that will take me.. Maybe when i'm 40 or.. 50? Maybe i'd be old, fuzzy and grumpy then.. den i can start listening to jazz and record some "numbers" with my "homies".... HAHAHAHAHA....

Brand New Sunset playing this Friday 15th Sep at Esplanade? Or somewhere in Singapore.. Wished i was there... Long Live Thai Rock!! Show the world what SEA's made of!!

Exams are coming, but dun wish to bother u will all the details, live is stressful enough for each person to handle, no use sharing the burden.. Oh and a.f.i. are coming to town... And just before I head back to Singapore =)

And of course dark tranquillity next Monday... Mosh Pit Madness maannnnnn... Can't wait..

Tata.. May the force be with you.. *WiSh WiSh* <-- swings light saber

Its a cold cold night..

2006-09-10T21:20:00.000+08:00

New song.. By mastodon..

Awesome album..

Also.. judah4.blogspot.com

Hee.. Hi everybody....

One weeks time... Dark Tranquillity.. \m/ O_o \m/

Yeah.

Back

2006-09-01T01:28:00.000+08:00

Ok, since i'm logged on.. Might as well update this damn page..

First off, i got my hands on Red Hot chili Peppers Chili Bowl tickets.. Meaning im going be moshing to Suck my Kiss in front of Flea.. Yep..

Cry all u like people.....

Not to mention that next Monday is finally-catching-36-Crazyfists-live day.. Well.. The headliners are Atreyu.. But we know who the real stars are.. Gonna be the only one wif a crazyfist shirt there, in a sea of black atreyu outfits... They better stand away from me when 36 Crazyfists hit the stage.. Cos im going to go seriously berserk...

No one will be spared..........

And of course the following week would be........ DARK TRANQUILLITY LIVEEEEE!!!!

Yep... I've been looking forward to this for a looooong time..

I'd better stop, otherwise i won't be able to slp to because of the sheer excitment...

I'm starting to wonder.. Wad the hell is wrong wif singaporeans and their love for music.. Or maybe the lack of it...

I mean.. Common.. Slayer are going shove their collective old and fat ass-es down to Singapore and the mosh pit doesn't sell out even after 2+ weeks of release????? And coldplay sells out within a week...

Not that i've anything against coldplay.. I caught the live myself.. But... Well..... Doesn't the name Slayer just sound more exciting?

Yes, and i noe... We also have to support local music.. But how do i put my heart into supporting them, if they all sound the same? I not a good musician myself, but i know the diff between good and excellent music.. So, yes, we do churn out bad, mediocre, and sometimes, really good stuff.. Take The observatory for example.. Really really good stuff...

We don't need another band sending pop songs to local stations..

We need bands who we can look up to.. As musicians as well as mentors..

Honestly, who started playing guitar because of green day.. or because of a singer like bryan adams... or maybe even pearl jam and their single "Last Kiss".. I know alot of people who have..

And who here..... Started play guitar because they heard a tanya chua or JJ song on radio and, actually at that point of time, starting playing air-guitar to the song thinking it was so cool.. I reckon none..

I started wanting to play drums.. Well.. because of Mike Dirnt.. You know.. that fast fill-in at the beginning of Basket Case? Yep, just made me wanna smash some drums.. And of course later it progressed to other drummers...

But essentially my point here is that, when will we start producing people like mark portnoy or edge..

Not trying to blame it all on our lack of talent.. But a major reason is also because of our country's size.. To what extent can a person use his full potential for music and to grow musically? I just can't imagine living off CD or tickets sale if I were in a band in Singapore.. How much would that provide me with? Enough to support a family and aging parents?

Notice how this seems uncannily similar to our sporting situation? Foreign imports EVERYWHERE.. Yes, we may not have the talent now, but learn from them is what we must do.. And soon we'll be right there with them..

I think i've gone a whole circle.. But coming back to my point of Slayer coming down to Singapore to play....

People, this is YOUR opportunity to experience for yourself what makes music so exciting... Love it or hate it, it is their brand of music that made legends out of the ordinary people they once were.. Legends are not born, they are made.. And they are called legends for a reason.. Step out of your boundaries and realise what they have to offer.. And maybe bring back some of it into the music we write, and hopefully in the near future, to be an inspiration to thousands..

Note: This entire post was only meant for not-so-casual musicians, who sometimes live for music alone...

On a lighter note...

Haha

Some new cds which i think are really awesome:

**IRON MAIDEN - A MATTER OF LIFE AND DEATH**
Audioslave - Revelations
Blind Guardian - A Twist In The Myth
Breaking Benjamin - Phobia
Black Label Society - Shot To Hell
Cathedral - Garden Of Unearthly Delights
Motorhead - Kiss of Death

There's alot more, but its late and my head's tired.. can't... think.........

Anyway.. Cheers Ppl~

Hehehehehe... Red Hot Chili Pepperssssssssss........... Can't wait man..

Holy Cow

2006-09-01T01:26:00.000+08:00

Killswitch Engage.. Covering Holy Diver.. Really.. Really.. Really awesome stuff..

Yes i noe its been a long time since i've updated.. Whatever..

Gonna take down parts of this place.. Changing it to some music page or sumthing..

Something which i take alot more interest in than in my own life..

Yup, Life in australia is getting fine and dandy.. Sun, sand and man-made sea...

Well.. to kick start the music onslaught, just to let everybody know i have >130gig worth of mp3s now..

Haha, j/k...

Actually no, i was serious...

MetALLLLLLLL!!!!!!!!!!

Anyways i just caught Avenged Sevenfold's gig yesterday.. And it was absolutely awesome man..

I also realised that aussie teens don't know how to mosh.. I had to headbang violently throughout the whole concert, my neck was unmovable this morning when i woke up.. Muscles too tired out..

More to come.. Dun feel like writing too much..

Will change music soon.. Any votes from the people out there???

Will smith.. Or Blue.. Or maybe some Darren hayes???

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA..

Wad a joke.. alright i'll load up a dose of heavy metal for you peeps out there.. I think maybe something really really really heavy.. i'll see....

Btw darren hayes get married, u noe... The singer from savage garden... To his partner of two years...... RICHARD...

Yep, sounds as gay as his music...

We probably shoudn't laugh at them.. but....

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA..

Thats wad u get when u don't listen to metal to straighten up your life..

Slayer's playing singapore expo.. Damn..

Varun my brother, i'd be there if i didn't need to take a 7-hour $800 flight back...

Well... at least i could settle for upcoming gigs by Atreyu, 36 crazyfists, 3, Killswitch engage, Unearth, Lamb of god, Dark Tranquillity, Nevermore, Megadeth, Soulfly, Arch Enemy, Caliban right?

Yea.. Not too shabby i guess... Note MEGADETH...

2006-06-11T22:11:00.000+08:00

HAHAHA

im insane

I studied the night through yesterday till 6 plus.. and went to help put up some banners in school... And went to slp onli at 11am to wake up at 2pm to do reception..

a grand total of 3 hours of slp..

and here i am..

12midnite.. doing law again... still very much alive and kicking..

Hopefully can go till maybe 4 am la...

Shit happens.

Bought my A7X tix already...

Woop dee doo

2006-06-04T04:09:00.000+08:00

My mum's going to US for work.. Hopefully she'll be back in Singapore with my Shadowsfall, Therion, Machine Head and Killswitch dvds =)
Currently i'm in a long and tedious process of self-torture..

Yep

Studying's really such a pain in the ass... Sometimes..

Actually, only when the pressure's on..

So, its now a god-forsaken 6.10am here in Australia and i've just finished my Accounting revision... The birds are chirping and I can see the sky getting pretty bright.. That pretty much settles my breakfast for me, today for breakfast it'd be nothing... Probably by the time i wake up it would be time for dinner... Guess there goes lunch too... I'll miss ya.. You know, it just brings back memories of the times me and lunch had.. Sniff sniff.. Its an eternal struggle i tell you.. Gosh, I really miss lunch.. Sigh, all the good times we had... All gone... But its alright, i'll be fine.. I've still got dinner... At least..

I've not gone mad... I'm just a wee bit tired..

Yesterday was a very exciting day... No comment..

And guess what.. Here is my updated gig calendar

240506 Coldplay
100806 Hawthorne Heights (dun feel like going actually)
170806 Avenged Sevenfold
260806 Kreator
280906 Black Label Society

Yes i highlighted Avenged Sevenfold for a reason..

That's cause i'm awfully excited about that one.. I almost crapped on my pants when i heard i was going to get a chance to catch them live in a small bar with only a thousand people.. Intimate's the word..

Yea, so the latest fad is wearing purple i heard.. Everybody should start wearing purple now.. Its a royal colour, it makes you look calm and confident.. And no, it doesn't make u look gay.. Unless u start wearing purple muscle tees and act real feminine... Den i guess u would deserve it..

Shouldn't write too much.. More words would lead to less snoozing time.. So tata my friends..

Take care and God bless.. Cheers~

You know, i actually thought using 'cheers' originated in Singapore, but when i came here.. Everybody was saying cheers to me.. And i realised that saying 'cheers' was just some wierd fad i picked up in Singapore, which wasn't too wierd here... Cheers mate'

Students Alike..

2006-06-02T03:40:00.000+08:00

Got damn excited about going back to Singapore for the sem break la..

Crap..

23 more freakin ass-long 24hour days to go before my feet's on reclaimed soil..
A word of advice before i take my leave, my honorary readers.. Its never too late to enjoy life my friends, so go now, and drink as much Qoo as u can.. Because u never know when u will be in my current situation, with cash, but no Qoo can drinks to be found within a radius of 15km.. Shit happens man.. Better to be safe than sorry.. Heard before?

Ever wondered how an black-haired Asian like me blends in with the Australians in a metal concert? I mean logically speaking, i would probably stand out like a sore thumb, being so small sized and being like one of only three Asians present... And frankly speaking though, i did.. Sigh.. But its really not all THAT bad..

Nite everybody~

Dowap dowap~

2006-06-02T02:56:00.000+08:00

Hi everybody~!

Its been a looong time.. Its like 5 am here now.. Just managed to finish studying my Econs..

Headache now arh...

But anyways, life has been great to me la... Not too bad.. Managed to stay happy and contented..

Just missing everybody back in Singapore... Yep.. And good and cheap food back there.. Especially Oyster cake man..

Highlight of the month : Caught DRAGONFORCE Live!!!!!!!!!!!!

Now who wished they were in my shoes pls raise your hands~

Yup.. exciting shit man.. And coldplay's next on the 24th june and i'd be back in Singapore on the 25th... August theres a Black Label Society gig and a Kreator gig to catch.. Both falling during my holidays.. So thats cool... most prob can catch both bands..

I've been studying hard and listening to tons of music... Pretty much cooped up in my dingy room.. Without my drums and my electric guitar.. Sigh..

Some Cds i thought were darn cool, if u haven't listened to them yet.. Pls go and BUY them, NOW!!

In Flames - Come Clarity
The Fall of Troy - Doppelganger
Protest The Hero - Kezia
Sepultura - Dante XII
Shadows Fall - Fallout From the War (though i thought their previous effort was better)
BoySetsFire - The Misery Index (ok so it doesn't fall in the same genre with the rest, so?)
Guns n' Roses - Use Your Illusion I & II
Norma Jean - Oh God The Aftermath
O.S.I. - Free

Ok there's more but i dun think im able to list them all.. Wayyyy to many Cds to name..

Ah well, i'll try to update more often.. Damn.. I wanted myself to blog so that i could like keep a dairy for myself, but it turns out its not successful eh? Hmm.. gotta try..

Thats all for now i guess.. Bidding for an Ibanez guitar, wish me all the best~

Catch u guys back in Singapore next month.. Baybeats? =)

And movies, and pool, and lan, and bowling, and roti prata =)

And of course overnight gaming marathon at the Gaming Adobe!! Haha..

I'm now back in sucky-land!!!!!

2006-04-01T20:39:00.000+08:00

Thank God i went back to Singapore for a short stint a couple of days back..

Gosh the four days were the best i've had for a long timee...

Wait, the best since coming to Australia.

Yea! My sister's married.. Finally huh... I would think so too.. Was super busy, running around getting stuff ready, buying things to bring back here to lonely land... But i didn't find any cd that i wanted to buy though.. Maybe because i was in too much of a rush.. Or maybe cos cds aren't very cheap in Singapore either.. The Iron Maiden dvd costs 49.95, while it costs just A$24 (S$32 aprox.) here in Australia... Both three PSP games.. Haha.. Really enjoyed the four days, it was so fun... Though i was extremely ass tired, it was darn fun... So tired till i slept e moment i was up on e plane, woke up when the plane started moving for takeoff... Quite a sad journey, didn't really wanna come back.. Its like im being made to survive seperation twice in a span of two months.. Its painful man..

I found out all the entertainment complexes which feature rock bands are pretty near my house.. The most a 20 minutes bus ride and another 10-15 minutes by foot.. Can't wait, its actually the only thing i look forward to, rock concerts which im going to watch in the future.. How idiotic huh.. I know..

Took some photos.. Haha it was so enjoyable, sigh, another three months till im back in Singapore...

Just did my first Uni exam today.. Sucked.. Sigh.. I think i got about 4-6 mistakes.. Maybe more..

I need a psychiatrist..

Chaoz ppl, update soon... Going off to do my Business Law Tute now... Damn hwk, damn studies..

Btw Kerrang! issue 1102 has a tribute cd to Metallica, and it consists of the entire Master Of Puppets album covered by bands such as Trivium, Machine Head, Funeral For A Friend, Chimaira, Mastodon and Mandeed!! WOW!!!

Rant, ranting, rantious..

2006-03-18T01:18:00.000+08:00

I really can't wait to go back Singapore...

I miss the people.. The friends, close friends, very close friends, very very close friends, my dear, and my family..

Its dreadful... Its not like i'm homesick.. I'm just Australia-sick... i.e. sick of here..

For everyone who wants to come here... Think its fun and relaxing?

Hell yea.. Its fun and relaxing.. But its also pretty darn boring and irritating...

For those who wan to come here to study, I plead with you to think twice.. Its not even close to how people amazing people say it is over here...

Well, but thats my opinion.. May not be yours...

Its such a chore living here... Downright chore..

Plus u would just miss your friends... Hanging out and stuff...

Back den it was like, "Hey u wanna meet up?"

And i'd be like, "Ok! Anywhere.. Cos everywhere's near to me."

But here.. i'd be like, "Hmm.. I don't think so, since getting there would need me to look at the bus time table, AND pay an exorbitant price to take the Public transport... AND another thirty minutes to get to town.. Plus the town here has lesser shops than, say, Tampines mall and Century Square combined, and im serious here.. PLUS they close by 5pm EVERYDAY, well except Sunday when they close at 3pm... FREAKIN 3PM!!!!!!!!!! LIKE WTH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

WHAT THE HELL!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yup... Life rocks...

My life rocks... So cool huh...

But on the bright side, i've found a group of friends, and of course my bud and roommate, who i find i can really relate to... Though Jason sometimes gets a little too hygenic (or unhygenic) which sometimes provokes me.. Haha.. But thats fine.. Really, I rather him than anybody else i've met so far..

Yea, and.. erm.. and another thing is.... erm.........

Waitaminute, i think thats all...

Yup, the one silver lining over the massive BLACK and DARK cloud in my life....

Anyway im here to study so hell with all the leisure stuff...

Sorry for all the ranting... Its just so shitty....

Everything is just so terrible here... I'm always hungry... (haha actually cos i wake up so late i don't haf time to eat.. e.g. waking up at 1.30pm today)

Yea...

Wait one more rant before i take my leave..

I can't find anybody here to go jamming with, or to go to rock concerts wif...

Concert buddies!!! Woohoo.. those back in Singapore... Mg, Wp, Varun, Joel, Des, Cal.. Cheers to you guys~

MY DRUMS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I MISS MY DRUMS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! PLS SOMEONE SEND A DRUMKIT OVER TO ME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I NEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEDDDDD IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

ARGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

Hehe could you feel the agony?? Yep....

Chaoz ppl.. Haf a great day ahead~ Missing all u peepz..

Not Here

2006-03-18T01:01:00.000+08:00

Crap.. I miss blasting music in my room back in Singapore..

All the blast beats blaring into my ears..

My current speakers really can't compare..

Not even half-way.. Common my laptop's output already gives out fuzzy noises, even the best of speakers wun do...

The max is like pretty lousy.. And besides i don't wanna disturb my neighbours..

Sigh..

I tried putting up a music chart, like Varun's, but it isn't coming out as what i wanted.. It just says click here to view my profile.. Like wth? I don't wan ppl to view my profile, i want ppl to know what should be played over radio..

Anyway the charts pretty cocked, cos i usually play album by album.. at least three quarters of it..

So it'd be looped sided...

At the moment, its standing at 1. Iron maiden 2. Gamma Ray 3. Trivium..

Yea, so its actually kinda accurate, but not there yet...

Hmm.. So anyways..

There is the new album by Christian Metal Band, Evergrey.. And some Joe Satriani..

And there is this band, Scar Symmetry.. I think you all will love.. Its poppy yet kinda metally, and yes, Its nowhere close to today's banal Metalcore.. Its like erm.. Soilwork meets Dark Tranquility... Hmm sounds like a very good comparison...

Sigh...

Slipknot.. Boy, best gig of my life.... Man, i wished i could catch them again..... Still remembered the moment when they blast out The Blister Exists... Oh man.. Ho ho... Freakin ass high...

Chaoz~

I'm glad to inform you guys that i can finally go haf some beauty slp..

Immediately after the last post, i went to do my &^%&^ Business Law quiz..

And lo-and-behold, I managed to get PERFECT marks on my first try..

Whats more impressive is that it was finished at a all-new world record timing of 4minutes flat~!!!

Considering they gave us 20 minutes to do it, and it took me 14 minutes to complete my first quiz..

Pat on my back there..

Woopee!!!

SSSlllleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeppppppppppppp....... AAaaahhhhhhhhhhhhh.....

Yawnnn...

2006-03-12T00:58:00.000+08:00

OMG..

Its only the second week of school and already so much work piling..

I had such a long day, got involved in an accident as a passenger, thank God I'm fine, can't say the same for the car though..

That happened on the way to paint ball... And believe me, paintball is pain.. Check out my bruise i got..

Its 2X2cm big and its growing redder and blacker by the minute...

I haf two stings on my hands, should haf seen how colourful my gun was boy, like a rainbow..

Chiong until damn tired.. CMI..

Sigh, attempt Business Law quiz den it'll be a wrap for today..

Yawn..

Its a small small world..

2006-03-06T18:48:00.000+08:00

It's a lie if i say i don't miss home.. And everything that comes with it..

Of course i miss home, stop asking me that question.. It's like putting me through a meat grinder and half-way in the midst of minsing me into a pulp, pulling me back out..

But keep asking how am i doing though..

Cos i need the encouragement to carry on.. Its like medication for a sick body..

By the way, its not easy living my life, being such a stubborn ass..

Showing your pressence by just saying a simple hi speaks volumes more than telling me how much i was missed six months down the raod when i'm back for the hols..

I wish to believe every friend i have is truely someone i treasure, and definately i would say hi to when i meet them on the streets when i'm old and fragile..

And hopefully be hanging out with till i reach that age..

I believe my friends are true to their heart, because i'm more naturally attracted to people who don't put up airs, and who make me crack up for reasons other people can't understand..

Don't act like a grown up when you know you are not..

Being crazy or letting yourself go is not an act of childishness.. Its being young at heart, its knowing when to let yourself go and enjoying the freedom God has given us; enjoying the moment..

I'm not saying the only way to enjoy freedom is to be crazy.. Its just one of the best ways..

If you're saying i'm wrong, you are being a stubborn ass..

I love to argue with people about the merits, and of course, the demerits of metal..

As similar sounding as you might think they are, its just a good part of life you're missing..

I have dreams with passion... Being an accountant is not really top on the list though, its probably forth or fifth..

The top spot goes to me becoming Nicko McBrian's (Iron Maiden) drum techie..

A close second probably goes to me playing live passionately for the rest of my life.. I love playing, I don't always need a crowd, I just need a band who share the same energy and passion.. And are willing to play anywhere, anytime at every opportunity..

And really, I believe everything in life happens for a purpose/reason (i'm sure some people would find the last sentence familiar, and yes i'm taking it in context with why you usually hear it), including the people you meet, the places you go, the friends you have, the family you were born into, and of course, the music you were influenced to listen to..

Sigh, some people would be laughing their asses off now, Yea yea, it's such a joke..

Haha..

Enough of that.. But i was serious larh..

Darn, I'm listening to Caliban?? What's the world coming to??

Give me back my Dark Tranquility.. Hmph~~

Yikes

Greeting from Australia...

Yep.. Still alive and kicking..

Got the stupid house settled and all my bank stuff and electricity and the 24 mb/s ineternet connection settled...

Still some things to do though.. Its not all clean and done yet.. Strings hanging here and there..

Started cooking and stuff.. Food here is expensive.. But gonna start working in the coming months, so yeah, its gonna be fine..

So its just me and jason here now.. Got our beds and tables and stuff... To get so settled in just a short span of two weeks is pretty impressive by my standards.. So here's a pat on my back..

Phone cards are pretty resonable actually, so i call home to singapore pretty often.. And wif my web cam up its really not so essential anymore... Listening to some A.F.I. now..

Next month Funeral for a friend are coming.. And in May Story Of The Year are coming down too.. So i'd be trying to go for both of them..

Btw.. Thats not all.. Within the next two months, The Haunted, Exodus, Cold "gay" play, H.I.M., yellowcard, Dinosaur jr., Coheed and Cambria, Alkaline Trio, Ill Nino, Static X, Taking Back Sunday, Korn, Disturbed, Hatebreed, 10 Years, Nickelback, Kanye West, Deep Purple, Status Quo, The Living End, The Darkness, and... Erm.. Snoopy snoopy dauuggggggg........

Yep..

Excited?

I know i am..

had a great O' week.. A.K.A. orientation week.. Pretty boring.. But quite essential.. Lifes pretty good to me over here.. U'll hear from me more often cos i've got my internet up now.. Unfortunately the most exciting parts were in the first two weeks here.. Haha.. Yeah.. So i pretty much didn't write alot of stuff happening to me in here... But it may possibly change?

Haha..

Yeah.

More on uni life.. I haf school on three days.. Monday to Wednesday.. 12 to 6-Monday, 12 to 4-Tuesday and 12 to 5-Wednesday.. Thursday and Fridays saved for working and revision.. And updating blog haha..

My drummings getting pretty rusty.. Sigh.. No outlets to practice yet.. Hopefully in the near future lar... Ok once i return to Singapore and get my camera wire i'll post some pics here..

There..

A short intro.. More to come peeps..

Take Care mates.. Hahahahahaha..

P.S. to jer.. Remember, Slipknot loves you.. heh heh

Ah

2006-02-06T11:33:00.000+08:00

DAMN BUSY.. so many things to do..

Whew^

2006-01-17T00:55:00.000+08:00

Ok, here's the deal..

I've just realised i haven't done a proper update since Jan freakin 3rd..

So to make up for it..

Here you go..

Hold-on.. Before we go on, i just wanna thank all my friends yet again..

I'd be going on to a new phase in life.. So lets all join in the ride, alright?

Here we go..

So yes, after that entry on the 3rd, i did duty on the 4th and got a half day off on the 5th.. Needed to go down to my sis's house to wait for her fridge cos she has to work.. Yep.. And of course i was the guinee pig sent down to await the arrival of the fridge.. Uh-huh.. Its really huge.. Like really one of the hugest i've ever seen.. Like HUGE... you noe? HUGE!!!

Yea.

And den.. well i forget wad i did after that.. Probably went down to Hougang larh.. Point is..

Wait there is no point..

Ok lets carry on..

Now here's a question, why do my speakers crack when i blast them on my lappy? But not when i blast it through my iPod?

I think its lousy sound output..

Common, its harman/kardon speakers on my lappy.. Then why does it still suck?

Yup.. And so, on the 6th, i went down to accer to have xN's lappy repaired, changed the entire wireless card.. Exactly what i expected.. And den i went to....... (drum roll please).... SNOW CITY!!!!! HAHAHAHAHA... what a joke right?? Ya anyway its still time well spent la.. I had a sore arse after that cos i kept on force-speeding down the slope by using my legs to push my body forward.. And the ice wasn't meant for such high speeds, thus the tube thingey kept slipping out, causing my entire body to drag against the ice chunked floor on the way down.. But the ice kinda was a remedy already.. You noe wad i mean?? Like it was sorta an ice pack for my soreness... Oh wait, i forgot to mention, i fell down before i even stepped into snow city, the battle scar is still on my left hand.. Black.. Getting mouldy....

Den on Saturday... Practice as usual.. And met Guang to get some Cds.. Go to his blog.. Can see the Dvds n Cds he bought.. Cool hUh~.. And that nite, was the start of the "3hr a nite slp" trilogy.. In which i slept for only three hours a day for the next three days.. I tell u, it was pure torture...

Not too sure why i put myself through that..

On top of that, I had to play in church on that Sunday.. And had a 3 1/2 hour AGM after that... Oh man.. I stayed awake throughout the meeting.. Its a miracle i tell u.. And yes, that night, yet again, i slept onli three hours... had stinky camp the next day..

Camp sucked..

Dun wanna write anything about it.. Except i did my clearance..

And slept alot..

Hehh..

And that night, i slept over at Sha and Jer's pad.. For some overnight gaming.. But it was not really a efficient gaming night.. I knocked out during only the forth Legend Of Zelda: Four Swords round we played that game..

You know wad? i keep promising pics but i nv deliver...

Rest assured i would be posting them up soon...

Well, actually its partly caused by Jer not passing me the Mambo and Wild wild wet pics yet...

But the three hour slp really took a toll on me that day.. I overslept for like more than an hour.. Thus, causing me to be late for my jamming session.. I jammed for like onli 1 1/2 hours and had to go back home.. To damn tired.. Enough was enough.. Boy, would i miss jamming with Joel and the two idiots behind him (a.k.a. Supercede)...

Was supposed to teach Ben drums on Wed, but he cancelled on me.. He had a very valid reason.. Sigh.. Anyways going to meet him on Wednesday for lunch and den some practice.. Yup..

Sssooooooo.. I went down to Beach Road and bought some of my lost store items... And went tampines to buy a track pants and etc etc.. Lazy to type already...

When is Dragonforce's new album gonna reach Singapore's shores??

Or when is Story of The Year's latest gonna cost less than 20 bucks? Somebody pls stop HMV from robbing us in brought daylight by selling it at $36.95!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Gahh..

I just don't understand them.. So you are the sole-distributor of the Cd.. Well, unless you order it online, But it still doesn't give you the right to sell it at sky-high prices...

I was just reading Varun's blog.. The post about all the objection to Mayhem playing in Singapore.. What musical contribution do they make to our society? Well, alot more than the Backside Boys or N' Stink... I'm not a supporter of Mayhem, but a supporter of freedom in the music we listen to and which we love.. Dun wanna dwabble over this topic.. Its just so totally biased..

And well, that pretty much sums up the past two weeks..

Of course that Friday was my farewell dinner/party...

Went to orchard on Sat and bought a long sleved shirt for CNY, and hit bugis on Sunday and managed to but Ayumi's latest album!!!! At long last... Call me a wuss, whatever.. Ayumi rocks alright.. But not as much as Slipknot though..

Bold and delicious...~~

And that brings us to today...

Well.. today..

Was a good day..

One thing, i did my entire clearance, except my stores, but i left them wif my friend to help me get it done up... So hopefully i won't need to go back to camp any time soon.. Which reminds me a have to call CMPB tmr.. Did my own Overseas Disruption Order today.. Haha.. Just to make sure i'm released on time for my studies larh... And wen piao bought me a Slipknot t-shirt!!! Straight from HongKong!! But its immitation lar i reckon.. But thanks wen piao for it!!! Appreciate it...

Oh oh.. did u noe my squash peeps presented me with a plaque-sorta trophy-sorta thing during my farewell??? ITS SO NICE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ARGH!!! Shit man.. Its damn cool.. Gonna post the pic up now..

Wow... Wild wild wet was so fun!!!!!!!!!!!

Had a blast of a time...

Sat everything... well it was more of the company rather than the rides actually...

Haha.. i even got stuck half way down the Waterworks...

For those who don't know what it is... Pls check out http://www.wildwildwet.com/rides_details.asp?ID=2, haha... hilarious... I was sliding down half-way when suddenly i just slowed down and came to a stop... I couldn't see the end so i thought i was about to finish... So i just pushed myself a little more... But after about a meter.. I still couldn't see the damn exit... So i peeked from the side of the slide... And lo-and-behold... I was still like 50 meters for the exit and about 10 meters up in the air!!!!!!!!! Like... Wth...

So i pushed myself a little further and started to gain somemore momentum to get me going... Well.. It ended soon after... Louya design...

And den rushed to collect tix for my sis and get my Oak's rubber earpiece...

Den rushed back home to change to go to Marina Square and ate at the Garlic restaurant... haha and Fondue at Hagen Daaz after that.. WooT~!

Of course shopping in between...

And here i am ast home... Tmr jamming at 10am...

Ok..

Super busy week.. boi am i tired..

Hit Orchard on Christmas Eve.. Yes, many of you would be saying to me now.. What a bad idea, what in the blue hell were u thinking??? But no, me, xn and my gd'ol cousins all went to Wisma Indochine to sit back, relax, have a sip, while awaiting for Christmas to come so that we could all toast in celebration of this great occasion.. All in view of whats going on outside, but in the safe arms of Indochine's glass walls.. COol HuH~~

We managed to siam all the stupid confetti flying all around, yet still enjoy the Christmas atmosphere.. Woot~!

Yea.. We stayed from 11 plus till around 2.40+.. Fortunately we were not drunk.. Ya.. Cos onli one cup ma.. Haha.. Den took a cab home and had a great slp...... Sighx. If onli everyday was like this...

Sunday, erm church.. An entertaining one, i might say.. Pastor Hoo preached a superb sermon, for once, Christmas was not about singing Christmas charols and exchanging gifts.. If was pretty solemn.. I loved it... But of course i still received a whole load of gifts... Yea~~ Will post pics soon.. I think.... Went to my Aunt's house for Christmas dinner.. With everybody, normal party, wellll.. With a little excitement buzzing in the "Close family members" camp.. But its not for anyone to hear... Yup, and so we went and got our presents and ate alot of home-made Sushi.. And went home after that... haha, got a PSP game plus alot of other great stuff.. My Dad bought me a Hugo Engergize, dunno how to spell, to lazy to check.. Haha... Cool Dad... Mum bought me a Nokia 3230 on Tuesday... I bought my sis a little piggy chair Haha.. Yup and went over the Sha and Jer's place for the night.. Played Halo 2 till my nose bled.. J/k..

Den my dumb dumb sis go tell me Narnia starts at 3.20 the day b4, and suddenly calls me at 1.50 and asks where am i.. I ask her y.. She tells me the movie starts at 2.20......... O_o'''

Ya.. reached Tampines at around 2.40... But didn't miss much... Onli 5 minutes cos gt alot of dumb dumb commercials... Anyway... It didn't matter even if i missed an hour of the show.. It was a TOTAL waste of my time and my sister's money... Hmph... The nerve... So much hype.. So little results...

Anyway.. went home for dinner.. Mum's dinner... And chilled the night away........ Wait no thats wrong....

After dinner went to Rivervale Mall for some supper... And after that... Haha..

I went to Esplanade to fetch Xn and we went for supper at The Laguna... Which in case i didn't know... Is the East Coast food centre and had a plate of "OMG-I-LOVE-IT-FREAKIN-NICE-TO-EAT-ABSOLUTELY-DELICIOUS" Oyster Egg and sugar cane juice.... And ya.. Thats it.. Haa.. And home we go... Erm ya...

The next day.. Went to buy my phone and almost killed the Hello! staff... Not worth mentioning it.. Idiots...

Nothing la Tuesday... Haha... ITS ONE OF THE BEST CHRISTMAS EVER!!!!!

Wednesday... Went to see a doctor.. Cos got bad stomach.. Ya.. If u believe me... And in the evening went to Sakura to eat for free... I gorged myself so bad... I felt like puking immediately after that... My heart was racing and my body was aching terribly... SOOO much raw Salmon and BBQ clams, muscles, oyster, salmon, tuna, fried scallop, prawn, fish, chicken squid... OREO chessecake, durian puff, marble cheesecake, grass jelly with honey!!! And unlimited flow of Coke!!!!!!!! WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! OMG!!!!!!

Haha... Did i enjoy myself.........

Whew... I liked it.......................................

That was yesterday was it?? ya.. i woke up with a super bad body ache......

Of course.. That didn't stop me from having a great day.....

Went to SLS wif Guang in the afternoon and bought alot of stuff... Thanks to Guang hu helped me carry the speaker... And enduring my undecisiveness... Haha... 2.1 speakers, two logitech webcams, a 256mb MMC card for my phone and of course, the Warcraft 3 Battle Chest...

Started using the blue tooth headset my dad gave me too.. Its a damn gd invention, bluetooth... Wireless headset?? Incredible.. So easy to use and operation...

Met Jimmy and Da Bing for dinner later and we proceeded to Da Bing's house to check out my Farewell party Venue... Ya and for those hu dunno yet.. They are organising a farewell party for me on the 13th of January 7.30 pm... So pls try to make it, your presence with be appreciated... Its somewhere abt 2 minutes walk away from Tanah Merah MRT station... Its gonna be a party... erm food games presentations, erm and booze???

Went home and let racheal play wif them, hoping that she could be the test subject.. Well, she did help abit la, cos i kinda got a benchmark from her.. haha.. Anyway.. I left the test batch of fish in church to "try" to let them live.. And bought another three packets to keep at home and to be brought to church Sunday morning.. Well.. lets just say majority of the fishies died in the process.. Sigh.. But its alrite, cos gd'o mum bought three more packets this morning before she went to church wif Xn and Hoon jiejie.. and racheal.. JAJA..

Thats cause i haven't beem having a life and haven't been staying over at my cousin's pad for overnight "can't-disconnect-my-eyeballs-from-the-tv" gaming madness for weeks.. I've been so freakin busy i just wanna haf one day which i can just haf for myself.. My psp occupies most of my days in camp nowadays.. Its an evil device i tell u..

Army.. Hmmm where should i start.. Good question there.. Well, firstly, i love it.. Secondly, I'm going to ORD and i've been crapping my pants for the past month because i found out i can't hand over to my understudy yet cos i haf too many outstanding issues to settle before anything can be handed over.. And worst still, he is quite a slow learner.. How will he ever take over all my responsibilities in time? So many times he has failed me.. So many times i did his job for him.. Its been too many times.. I have to get so so so many things before i go to australia... I have my laptop, my handphone and of course, my half-life 2... Sigh... Where's my lucky toto ticket when i need it? Sigh.. but whats the point.. I just wanna ORD... why why why.. I'm like absolutely drained by the army.. I did like what? THREE duties this week... What in the freakin BLUe hELL is happenin to my life??? THREE DAMN DUTIES!!!!!!!!!!!!!

And I can't even go for clubbing this sat.. Heard its gonna be big huh Varun.. SIGH.......

Camp has been an absolute bore i tell u.. everybody has left.. Yang Ru, Jason, Lau.. No more buddies around me... Its pretty hellish actually.. Superbly boring.. I mean, why is this happening? I didn't know army was supposed to be SO "fun".. And despite all my efforts in my work, things ALWAYS seem to crop up.. Eventually downplaying all my massive efforts that i haf done already, and have the spotlight on all my faults.. Its frustrating i tell u..

No matter how hard i work.. i still get the same pay as everybody else.. So what motivates me? I guess its my character and principles... But these few months, army has really pushed me to the limits.. Im balancing on the line now.. Working hard becomes a really "pain-in-the-ass" chore..

Ok but on the other hand.. Life's been actually very good to me as well..

I got my amazing psp.. Ha..

And NEXT week's the chalet!!!!!! WOOHOO!!!

ALCOHOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

METAL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Of course i glad to also have my family and friends and yeah..

Some cds i got recently..

Queen - A Night at the Opera (30th anniversary ed)
Roadrunner Uniter - The All-Star Sessions
Slipknot - 9.0 Live
Thrice - Vheissu
Dave Matthews Band - Stand Up
Rammstein - Rosenrot
etc.

Dun feel like slping today.. Just wanna slp through tmr's duty..

Hope i can.. Assholes...

#*&$^(*&# duty...

At least i can claim an off for tomorrow's duty so that i can use it on Friday.. Allowing me to go for the chalet~~ WOOT!!!!

Been lacking cash recently.. Spending alot less..

I have already planned my leave clearance.. Hopefully i can clear by December 16th or so.. get the hell OUT of there.. Now i know the feeling.. Last year, when my friends told me that the period just before your ORD seemed to pass the slowest.. I laughed..

Now its so clear..

Its really a pain in the ass to go through all this..

I NEED MY NEW DARKNESS CD!!! WHEN IS IT REACHING SINGAPORE?!?!?!?!?!!!!!!

Life's so troubling.. I just wanna play drums my whole life.. And of course get an honors for my accounting Degree.. A simple but fulfilling life

I haven't been to gym for the past three months.. GASP!! neither haf i been running.. i've gotta start soon i tell u..

Not i may turn into a blob..

Oh yeah.. My english language standard is getting poorer and poorer by the day..

I could not speak no great enguish now..

This week's duties have really taken a toll on me.. I really don't feel like reporting tomorrow.. Of course that would be impossible, because being such a wuss, i wouldn't dare too.. Then again, even non-wussies are not as brave as to AWOL as well.. Only the stupid AWOL..

Its 4.30 and i don't feel like sleeping.. Tomorrow's duty is really gonna be pure torture.. I need to go out desperately.. I really can't get over the thought of doing three duties this week..

Oh couse there is a bright side to all this torture.. Next month i only have one duty, and its on the 23rd.. A Friday.. My last duty till i re-enlist for the remaining 1 month 10 days i would still owe the SAF.. My mind's really a big mess.. I need some rest to clear everything.. I need rest.. I hate green... I hate the word "ops".. and i don't really like the words "Microsoft Outlook Express" too much either..

I guess i should be thanking my lucky stars for all my fortunes instead of cursing all my misfortunes..

Ok i hereby make a stand.. From now onwards, I will try my best not to think of my current job as a chore, I will look at the sky and be happy, I will forgot all my worries, I will look forward only to good times, and I will love all my family and friends.. There..

Yeah..

I feel better already.. Heck wif S*F.. I love it..

Three cheers for a free world.. And another for maturity..

Long live the rested mind..

Kiss my ass all you back stabbers.. I hate you..

May the humble rule over the lands..

And the bees produce honey for our consumption..

And may the geeks control all the earth's PDAs..

Cheers my friends..

Ok i would like to mention some names here.. for fun.. g*y guang, varun, charles, kok, ws, ben, d&m, ian, ben2, mon, shuan, jer ass, marc, joel, desmond, sl, jellyman, lau, big head monster, shahid, hadi, medics and of course xn.. Amongst alot others.. I'm too tired to think of names now.. Its freakin 4.41am.. Gd nite peepz..

Wow such a long post.. More to come..

Hi hi..

Welcome back.. Slipknot Rocks..

ARGH!!! SLIPKNOT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'm taking a break.. Remember, Slipknot Loves You.

\m/ O_O \m/

Its been rough

2005-09-30T15:03:00.000+08:00

Whew.. I survived the past two weeks..

Unbelievable.. Life REALLY is a roller coaster..

Went for my WITs facilitator course last week.. Which made me wonder, why a facilitator? Why am i not sent to the WITs Leaders course?

WHY? I mean all the facilitators there were regulars.. And Mostly LTAs.. Lowest rank being a 1SG.. So wads the meaning of all this? Am i gonna get promoted? (Haha wishful thinking ed..) Am i gonna be a facilitator? Or is this course just to fill up the spaces required.. though i dun think it is...

Im just curious..

Ya anyways the course is so freakin boring.. To start with, i have absolutely no background on WITs whatsoever.. I don't even noe wad it stands for.. Even up till now..

BUT..

Yup i got a certificate of attendance already.. So that makes me a qualified and certified WITs facilitator i guess.. Haha.. Feels good actually.. Do i think i can take up the job of a facilitator? Yes. Do i think the leaders, who may be 2SGs or 3SGs, would respect me? No. Sometimes events like this makes life just a little more interesting..

Went jamming on Wednesday... Went jamming on Saturday for like 10 in e morning till like 5 in the afternoon.. t'Was fun.. And wad else.. Lets see.. Oh ya, Did duty on a SUNDAY!!!!

WO Desmond was my DO.. At first thought, it was terible.. But after thinking for awhile.. I decided it was far worse... But oh well, time waits for no man.. Eventually i HAD to do the duty.. Didn't seem too bad actually.. I sorta enjoyed my day, although i was stuck in office, i made full use of it.. Watching movies, whats not.. Without the internet though, cos it has a virus which caused the com to restart.. But after restarting i couldn't log on as i didn't know the loggin password.. Darn..

And the week continued.. Got bad to worse.. Monday took an early dinner.. And went for a huge workout, leaving me totally wrecked.. The next morning, 5km run.. Sounds easy, but having NOT run for the past 2-3 months, I should haf taken it easy.. BUT no... i had to chiong all the way... Running like a mad dog.. And immediately after the run? I had to move my office.. Tens of cupboards awaited me in my office.. By lunch time my mates and I were totally flat out.. And to makes things worse.. We had a fire drill in the afternoon, but i actually fully support the fire drill.. It made alot of sense to me.. Yeah.. And yesterday? After completing a junk-load of wrk in the morning.. Something happened in the afternoon, which i can't say.. Maybe ask me personally and i might tell you... Yup and later at ard 4.30, this guy came and made a big fuss over his COS.. yet again, i am lazy to type it out.. Ya so just ask me if you're Kapo.. And yes.. Its pretty juicy..

Haven't been meeting my friends as of late.. My class is having a chalet Dec 1st to 4th.. can't wait to bum around.. Going to Phuket next week.. Woohoo.. My understudy is making great progress.. Hopefully he can take over by end next month.. Kok cok is coming back Oct 4th.. Den the team would be complete yet again.. Alright.. Haa..

Btw.. I on duty now.. Yup two duties this week.. I ran out of singlets and socks.. Darn.. Not sure what i'm gonna do tmr.. Dun wear socks? Tt would be filthy.. Maybe i'd have to use my white socks..

Anyways..

Take Care..

Cya soon..

Keep waxing hair~~

AHM

2005-09-12T06:30:00.000+08:00

Wad a great day..

Its good to see OC and wo cheng finally in good spirits..

After NDP.. its the first time i've seen them so carefree..

Not to mention.. the rest of the 3 sib commanders too.. Hope we get treated better since their happy now.. Sighz..

And abt the run?

Great.. But sucky logistics plagued the event..

Be back later..

Its gonna be a long night..

2005-09-01T09:55:00.000+08:00

I'm listening to Trivium now.. The next Metallica?

Yes, yes, very very probable...

Whooping rifts, gigantic choruses.. Chugging verses..

And the youngest being 19, oldest, 23; Wah lao damn talented la.. I mean, i guess they do put in the effort to practice too.. They deserve their success..

Sighz.. Here i am, at Tanjong Gul Camp doing duty clerk on a Wednesday nights out night.. Sad huh..

Ya, actually other than that, life's been great to me... Although i haven't gotten any cds in a long long time..

Ok let me just paint u a picture of what im doing right now..

Right, trivium blasting on the com, air con full blast, msn logged-on, comfortable chair, internet-enabled computer, nobody ard me, nobody disturbing me, no duty officer, just me... What it lacks is a tv..

Yeah..

I forgot to mention this place has a "canteen" which opens till 10pm, guess i'd be eating food tonite.. Western..

Yup, but its pretty hard to find this place, I heard Jason got lost yesterday, Haha.. Is that right Jason? Haha.. Oh well... Somewhere in Tuas.. Next to my Mum's office.. She managed to drop me off before going to work today.. Heh heh..

And because i have no reoprts whatsoever to write.. I have basically the whole night to myself.. I've brought backup entertain, Archie Comics (10X), Today newspaper (1X), and well.. this com kinda allows ROMS to be played, plus somebody has installed maple story already.. Maybe tt would keep me occupied tonite...

Ok its only 7pm.. I have a couple more hours to go.. I could write an incredibly long entry, or i could quickly finish it up and play my Bomberman SNES ROM.. I think i go for the in between..

Yes, and tomorrow i would going back to camp directly frm here, no rest period.. So tt i may be allowed to book out at 3pm and get my ass back home to change up for my seminar..Its been awhile huh.. It feels good to be back, earning easy money.. Hopefully there is another on friday.. Cos im on off.. Already planning to MAYBE go to Walas on fri nite.. I said MAYBE because every single time i plan to go down there, it just doesn't work out.. Either someone can't make it, or I've something on.. Oh well..

Talked quite awhile to Joel yesterday about our band.. Yes, he might be buying some recording software, and we might be joining some band talent agency to gain some recognition.. His band experiences are ridiculously funny, esp the SMU band where the drummer kept on complaining abt his drum set being sucky.. Yet he is not even able to play Sweet Child O' Mine in time.. HAHAHAHAHA!!!

Sometimes i wonder, do ppl actually know when, and when they do not suck?

I've seen bands playing lyk crap and acknowledging it at the end of their set.. But some do not.. Looking all smug after their first song, which happened to sound like shit..

Indirect Point : having great instruments doesn't make u a great musician, its so much more than JUST playing your notes...

Whao, wasn't wad a said just one load of crap? Hmm.. Ok maybe just a portion was crap..

Haha..

Heh

Actually, i do have quite alot to say...

I've just booked my Phuket holiday, October 6-10... Quite happy about it.. Finally going out of Singapore after a year and 10 months of army..

Actually im pretty tired already.. Will continue another time..

BTW, Dungeon Siege II is such a great game, and Fear Factory's new album is out already!!

Chaoz ppl~

Tak care!

This Is The Day.. Where Hope Fails You

2005-08-22T15:55:00.000+08:00

Alrite..

5 off days to use within 2 weeks.. How great is tt?

Lots of things planned already.. Wanted to earn some extra, but they had enough ppl.. So thats out of question now..

Hopefully can go down to walas sometime this week.. Since everybody in my camp's on off..

BUT.. i'll be going back to camp tmr as well as on Tues cos i haf to complete my work.. Oh well.. Tts the life of a docu clk..

Received some comments from quite a senior drummer today.. Said my drum shots were very clean.. Very accurate.. I was so happy when i heard tt.. Pretty much made my day..

Wad did i do today? Was sorta one of my family days.. Lunch wif sis, dinner wif grandparents.. And an afternoon nap at home.. Rare..

Yeah..

Been buying loads of cds of late.. Esp 2nd hand ones..

Ratm, FF, Dave Matthews...

Countless.. Planning to use next week to listen to all my backlog of cds..

Its almost reaching 30 "un-listened" cds..

Esp would love to listen to the Sentenced album.. As well as the Still Remains album..

U know wad.. I still can't forget Slipknot's concert..

Sighz..

I caught Must Love Dogs yesterday.. Shitty movie.. Don't watch it.. Sucked..

Ok ok.. Not much to say..

Cya all~

Carnival@Marina : The Few Happy Moments There Were

2005-08-18T04:27:00.000+08:00

Here are some pictures from the Carinal @ Marina.. A.k.a. C@M..

Well, of me and my pals.. Along with some tag lines..

Alrite.. This is wad we do onboard tonners most of the time in case any of u don't know.....

Though, we also always do this..

What's this? Medics slackin off? Ok this was taken on the first day we arrived to set up the carnival.. So me and the medics decided to hide at the container area.. Hopefully avoiding any eye contact with the warrants.. Yang Ru took this pic so he was not featured.. Notice the guy on the left.. He is a fellow maggot, went wif me to the Slipknot concert..

And this? Ok the red thing is what we call a container.. Its huge, bulky, red and smelly..

The calm before the storm.. Serene was the word i used to describe Marina before the carnival.. Not a bad pic huh? The sun (ok maybe not so), the sand and the sea.. But not anymore.. It just brings back bad memories now.. And its all SAF's fault..

Ok this is where i work, the main Command Post (CP) for C@M.. Dats where the biggies sit and talk about nothing but shit.. Imagine arguing within themselves for an hour just because they couldn't agree on what the Emcee should say.. And that hour was spent JUST arguing what he should say when OPENING the show.. OMG.. Think about it, an hour to discuss wat someone should say for twenty seconds.. What efficient use of time huh..

Ok fun pic alert!! Cock photo, of yang ru, lau and of course blur me..

Us hard at work.. Moving planks.. And then even more planks..

Notice the number.. Thats not the number of days to the start of the carnival.. Its the countdown to how many days LEFT.. I guess even the biggies couldn't wait for it to be over.. Then they won't need to spend an hour discussing what someone else should be saying.. I hope they realised it was pretty dumb..

Ok Our favourite chill out place.. Introducing.. SUPER BOWL!!!! Yes and tts yi an beside me.. Smiling cheekily, and me in my usual blur look.. This place was a safe haven for all of us.. In here we were untouchable from all sorts of arrows and were well, deaf to all things sai kang.. BTW the taiwanese sausages here cost S$1.80 each.. Holy crap rite..

The 2nd cock photo.. Us in the signal, RSM, and STB office..

Alrite.. This is me and Jason at the Food Village.. With pepsi and hotdog girls walking amongst us..

Ok us again, behind us was chill out by the bay.. Where cold bear is served..

Last photo of the day... Me at the back of the CP.. Note the person at the back is a lady.. My brigade's Signal OC.. Easily mistaken for a man..

OMG

2005-08-17T14:44:00.000+08:00

Ok tonite is officially the most awesome night of my life..

I just caught Slipknot live, and inside the VIP cage!!!

Which also makes this the most worthwhile use of a hundred and fifty dollars i have ever made in my life..

It was awesome..

Freakin' awesome..

OMG.. I still can't believe i stood right in front of Corey Taylor..

They were so vicious... Slaughtering each and every hit they have.. IN your face.. Vibrant..

Since they played such a great show.. We the audience, complied and put up one hell if a mosh pit...

I will NEVER ever doubt the sincerity of Singapore metalheads again.. They rock..

And plus there were guys from Malaysia, Thailand and Indonesia in my pit.. SOO awesome..

The moment they blasted "The Blister Exists", the crowd went BERSERK..

Then there were all the hits like "Pulse of the Maggots", "Wait And Bleed", "Duality" and of course "The Heretic Anthem".. Amongst others..

Ok let me list down the songs they played..

People = Shit
My Plague
The Heretic Anthem
(Sic)
Eyeless
Surfacing
Spit It Out
The Blister Exists
Duality
Vermilion
Pulse Of The Maggots
Before I Forget
Disasterpiece

Thats all i think if i remember correctly.. I was so abasorbed into them i couldn't really rememeber everything they did..

Joey was on top form.. Pulling off his blast beats with superb accuracy...

ARGH words cannot describe..

By the forth song i was on my kness... Begging for air.. It was so exhausting.. Shirtless ppl moshing around.. Everybody enjoying themselves.. And Corey torturing us by pouring badly needed water onto the ground in front of our faces.. Jeans, soaked in sweat like i just got out of a thunderstorm..

My legs were like so heavy.. Badly dehydrated, yet having the time of my life.. My friend did point out that it was also probably one of the most gay moments of our lives.. Never before having so many guys and their butts around us..

Of course Corey did a couple of pep talks.. Saying how we were such an awesone crowd.. Even swearing by it.. I guess he didn't expect Singapore to have such a great crowd.. And yea.. Even he couldn't believe Slipknot managed to cross the boarder to play LIVE here at Singapore..

I hope this show opens the gates for many more metal acts to come into Singapore..

System Of A Down, this is your call..

And at the end Corey got on his kness and bowed a couple of times to us... I guess he was really grateful for such an awesone crowd.. The band mingled on stage for awhile.. Posing and stuff.. But eventually it had to end...

Don't call me stupid if you don't know what it means to be a metalhead..

This is what i love.. Its about the music and the entertainment it gives me..

I love it to death..

I mean classical's all good and soft, and jazz's all smooth and intricate.. But metal seems to bring out the best in me...

Btw, I think I know alot more classical songs by hard, than the number of classical songs any of you have heard before in your life...

So pls do not lecture me on music.. I just hate that..

Yes and back to Slipknot..

I bought a shirt and a poster for like 50 bucks.. OH YEAH!

Can't wait to see what Straits Times have to say about the show..

They were trying so hard to take a picture of us with none of us showing a single middle finger.. I guess that wasn't possible.. Guess our faces won't be pictured on newspaper.. Not that i care..

The photographer was even shaking his head in disbelieve.. Poor soul.. He's gonna have a diffcult time explaining to his superior why he couldn't get a decent shot..

Oh well..

Its time to slp and rest my OH-SO-ACHING body.. Probably need a week to recover.. Couldn't even walk straight when i came out of the shower...

Chaoz ppl..

Some photos of my escapades at Marina comin soon..

The Carnival From Hell Is Over

2005-08-15T15:17:00.000+08:00

I will use more meaningful titles for my blog enties from now on.. Yes, i shall do tt..

......

Freakin Carnival @ Marina is at long last, finally over..

Finish.. Totalled.. Done.. Accomplished..

Time for a big sigh... WHEW~

The only damage i've taken are my bad sore throat and my giant panda eyes..

Sore throat partly caused by stupid Heineken beer.. Mmmmm... Tasty..

Panda eyes partly caused by meeting princess on too many late nights..

9 days of sweat and tears.. Memories.. Friendship.. Bonding.. and of course DOTA.

Today was the last day.. What's left to be done is the recovery process.. Which promises to be a pain in the ass..

Ok i've not much time on my hands now.. I know the blog layout is still pretty boring.. So give me some time..

I haf to go back to camp tmr, and i'd be back at marina come Tuesday.. Which also happens to be the day which Slip "OMG" knot are playing here.. YES, right here in Singapore..

Can't wait..

And its off day for my on wednesday, which i will probably use to spruce up this webby..

So tata and catch you soon my friend.. Till den, stay nice alrite.. Remember, Ed rocks..

Cheers..
