[jukebox tracks>>> decode(acoustic version)- paramore]

What Went Wrong?

okay.
first off, i wanna say sorry to jason. for the hair incident.
i admit fully that it is my fault to laugh. an ultimately jackass thing to do.
i dont know if what i heard is true (was quite pissed at first) but it really is saddening to hear that cos i dont think i should be taking the blame full blast. but then you may mean it in a joking way, i dont know.
and then apologies for your idea of after-presentation plans. i really didnt know that was what you had in mind.
next, girls. you two have a WHOLE BUNCH of misunderstandings after hearing two sides of the story.
here is my two cents worth. i am really not sure what is the real side of the story for different episodes ah.
some parts i agree, some parts im not sure cos my brain dont remember much of the past accounts (50% cerebrum) so all i do is "orh orh" or "mm mm".
on some parts, i do think that it is natural that when the whole team dont get the same grade, upsets may arise and i admit i was one of them. like duh ah, but i am not that affected. james syndrome.
but on some parts i also agree that one may be too harsh on another person.
but everyone has different ways to view things and different principles.
when these values clashes and you dont resolve it, tiffs break out.
some may think doing something is important while others may see less importance in it.
one may focus more on one thing while the other, another.
but to sum it up...
one is unintentionally stern, one is over sensitive.
so you two are still at an unstable emotional stage. just calm yourselves down first.
no confrontation, but a non belligerent talk.
and finally to WONG JUN MING. SOS. where are you hiding huh? LOL


i thought when FYP is over, joy and freedom follows.
but that is not exactly the case now, is it?
cant spend a day without hearing someone being upset.
if only disputes can all be barfed out like bile.

after listening to DY's intro to decode, the song keeps ringing in my head.
"how can i decide what's right when you're clouding up my mind."
damn nice. i tink acoustic version like nicer ah. haha

Sunday Destress Sessions.

went to a coffee house with an old old old old friend last sunday.
like i told him, i prefer meeting people i rarely see once in awhile.
fresh faces aids in destressing, really.
because they do not know anything about you for a long while and there will be less possibility of judgement. feels like less of a burden during conversation.
you can talk about anything and there wont be someone who will remind you of your school grades or how far you are from what you want to be.

anyway Raffles Place TCC has thumbs up ambience. guys thinking of dating that special someone, this is an ideal spot.

Lee Can Cook.
oh yes she can, people.
presenting to you her best dish for Home Econs back in 2004.
BUTTER FRIED RICE!
look at her professional chopping skills. mmm.
it suddenly dawned on me. DID YOU WASH YOUR HANDS BEFORE ALL THESE? anyway, here are the ingredients needed.
Spring uhhnions, lapcheongs (eew, reminds me of eew) and garlics.
the very important seasonings. they can save a disaster. LOL
salt, sesame oil, soya sauce and the very expensive $4.50 SCS butter.
(seriously wtf. $4.50 is damn ex. last time it used to be like 1 buck.)
i can see the shock in butterball's eyes when marie announced the price. HAHA
then just put them in. jumble and tumble a little.
and...
voila. a steamy bowl of butter fried rice with sausage slices.
tasted pretty nice. had it over dinner and praises from the parents. yum.

oh yes. if you haven seen my current boyfriend, this is my betrothed.
Look at my darling, Jasper.
cute, handsome, always there when i need him and never complains when i get grumpy.

i love you, jaspykins. dont look so victimised! haha

sushi time after school.
i LOVE sashimi and kikkoman sauce.
so appetizing and it is never enough.
last time only 60cents, now 90 cents.
everything just rises. why doesnt my GPA rise too?
(nevermind. i know the reason. shut.)

note to self//
alamak. everyone around me finished with their self composition already.
die die. i feel the motivation for song writing depleting.
i need inspiration. but where to find it?
anyway people, check out momok's two self composed song on her blog.
she did a good job on it. i think she deserves to be applauded.
Move On and Angels Fall First

[ jukebox track>>> what you did- replug final ]

awaken your auditory pathway, peeps.
(pics ripped from true-and-through.blogspot)

a great performance in TRCC studio.
Replug: An Acoustic Night performance.
man, RP's really got lotsa talents.
personally, the more memorable ones were Mercy, The Remedy and The Ending which was a replug original production. Perfect curtain call for the show.
the female singer sounded like Amy Lee from Evanescence.

our reason to be there. kambing and alif.
playing Billie Jean cover together. DAMN NICE.
the percussion solo was a killer too.

heart of the band.

and there came our turn to play.

3/5 of us.
no i aint the drummer, though it's freaking awesome.
i can kinda play Yellow now, i think.
im still sticking loyal to vocals and a teeny bit of my measly guitar skills.
leave the drums to the professionals, ya?

introducing the pro?
yes. the pro of masquerading skills.
lo and behold, queen macam faham with the super nova drum set.
not bad ah, quite handsome in this pic. LOL

alright. here's the real pro-in-the-making.
arif bass, ya'll.
he cornrows his armpit hair and macam faham french alot.
(what Amicelli. NONSENSE. haha)
but his guitar and drums good ah.

DY. arif's friend.
friendly owner of all our jamming equipments for the day.
she is awesome with the drums too.
thanks for letting us play. (:

ah T being animal loving.
considering her bacterial paranoia and fluffy-phobia, this is a rare sight indeed.
but seriously, the kitten is super cute to the core.

spotted: meow meow being drumstick-attacked by Chuck Bass.
careful, upper east siders.

EGGTRAY WALLS.
apparently, eggtrays reduce noise amplification.
so you can drum and strum your electric git like no bumwala's beeswax.

THE END OF A EARDRUM BURSTINGLY RAD DAY.

keep plucking that tune.
till then.

"alone i stand. plastered to the floor."

i was asking my mom if uncle tjo was always this serious and strict.
and she told me this story about him when he was my age.
i find it pretty hilarious ah.
uncle tjo's chinese name is actually tjo tien.
in hokkien, tjo tien also means "fixing electricity".
there was this once where he went to visit my aunt at Medan.
uncle tjo: *knocked on the door*
aunt: ya?
uncle tjo: tjo tien ah! (im tjo tien!)
aunt: huh?! bo ah. wah lang bo ai tjo tien ah. (no. we didnt asked to fix electricity.)
uncle tjo: mm si la. wah si tjo tien. (no la. im tjo tien.)
aunt: tsk! to gah le gong liao. wah lang bo ai tjo tien lah! ( already told you! we dont wanna fix our electricity.)
LOL. wat the hell.
and he stood outside the house for really long before my aunt decided to whack the irritating "electrician" and opened the door to see my uncle in an incensed expression.
i can only imagine. HAHAHAHAHHAHA.

okay lame.

[jukebox track >>> turin brakes- dark on fire ]

STAIRCASE FIFTEEN prologue.
every thursdays 6-9pm.
the place smells like a giant ashtray, it's hard to miss.
this picture is probably an impression of our album. LOL?


yt, arif, jiahui and i went to check out Kambing's little pre-concert performance at Gaylilee.
and wooh, me and YT were trying hard to dodge killer glances from the drummer and lead vocalist.
one girl in the front row was already shot dead in fits of giggles. tsk tsk tsk.
anyway, anticipating it on 13 nov. one day before FYP report submission.
hopefully they'll sing Wine Red again and the speakers arent fucked up.

then it's the after school "sessions".
and we have power pack people in the house.
actually all are except for me and YT. haiz
we are working on it OKAY?
thanks to Mr. Goatie, i practise the pinky exercise everyday and it's coordinating better, i tink.
YT is probably on her way to the third song but the amazing thing is we haven uploaded an inch of dust onto myspace.
Arif, alamak. only mingle for awhile with Kambing and Alif and he plays like one kind of santana-ish fella already.


and finally, the long awaited opportunity with THE BOX.
nice pose ah, boy. as for how she played it, enough said.
the 500 bucks drum box. that makes all songs sound lively.
me and YT need four hands to play Do That Thing You Do. very good.

Spotted: Chuck Bass aka Arif.
chucking his bass guitarist position and turning into a percussionist?
mm, i see potential there, upper east siders. haha


one of the kuku artworks of lim yu ting after our sessions and an empty stomach.
but yea, you should really eat some shit, arif. I CAN COOK OKAY!

Clock used to mean so many things.
but whenever i see it nowadays. it just reads: DEADLINES DEADLINES DEADLINES.


DEADLINE. im heading there and yes, dead i am.
(mind you, i took this pic myself,man. flair from within.)

are you mugging for it too?

random note// re: Gossip Girl
nate and jenny? you gotta be shitting me, episode 8.
he practically got together with every girl in UES.
anyway, i think dan did the right thing not to let blair say those 3 words.
wouldnt it be worst if they got together at the wrong moment and screw up?
better off playing the chase game till the right time comes.

[jukebox track >>> wine red-the hush sound]

Do you wanna play a Dumb Dumb game?

Ms SAS 2007. lovely lady here was wrestling with mysterious man X and her slender legs got stuck in the cabinet next to the bed. (dont ask me how it happened.)
