Busy Week

Wednesday - Guitar practise as usual. the number of j1s has been reduced as expected but nevertheless, still quite high. Went to the GENUS concert at NUS with Ms Teh, Regina, Cherlie, Linda, You Liang, Wee Meng and some seniors to watch them perform SYF pieces of various schools. They weren't very tight when they played ours. wasted... Reached home at 2230. No time to do HW (not that i do them even if i had anyway).

Thursday - Phy SPA test was bullshit... Helped shamir from student council to get quotation for renting of equipments for Rockafella III 2007 from Luther Musicworks. What a headache.

Friday - Econs test. with 2 lectures and 2 hours of study, gg. Guitar practise without Balraj. Hock Lu conducted and he was pissed that andrew wasn't serious during the whole Kiko practise. Kiko still sucks with serious timing problems and dynamics non-exsistent. No dinner outing with guitar memebers today, how sad.

Saturday - No lesson with Beez cause was too tired. Had lunch with Cherlie, Hock Lu, Charmaine and Linda. Guitar practise with GENUS at NUS. Jia Le didn't come as he was suppose to... He's dead meat... Went down to Luther Musicworks with Hock Lu after that to speak to Luther personally over the Rockafella III equipment rental. Its really crazy with a budget so tight. A lot of compromise had to be made. Yao Zong from FSV is also trying to get a deal on the otherside and so we'll just have to wait for the other quotation to come in before we decide on which to get.

Busy week now, busy week ahead

4 birthdays in a week...

what a hectic week... with 4 people's bdays (keith, mel, shiming, sarah)... crazy loads of party and lots of runnin about...

i'm totally broke now after blowing all my cash on presents... :(

totally blew my maths and chem tests on monday too... + i had been having 5 hours of sleep for the past 8 days...

on the lighter note, jammin session last saturday after shiming's bdae party with john delvin, ircahn and sheer was the shiznit! though the jamming session today was crap with CGCFAD tuning...

this evening's talk with bro paul was redundant... caused me to reached home at 10pm. there's still econs test this friday and i've only been to two econs lect from the start of the year! gl to me...

Left Right?

Jammed with amanda yesterday with guitar ensem band. Her vocals are great... and i bet she can play the guitar better than me... left handed ala jimi summore! haha.. too bad she can't commit due to busy schedule though... now i'm looking for a vox again... if cannot then no choice... i've gotta sing...

wtf? me? sing? retated!

ok anyway, today ms teh did some test with us to find out whether we were right-brainers or left-brainers... right : arty; left: sciencey...

guess what... my right brain pwns my left... wonder wtf i'm doing in a science class for the past 5 years... haha must be my Hyper-Threading technology brain... multi-tasking and all...

then again, HT-tech is outdated... now there's like dual core.. and quad core... too little RAM make my brain hang all the time... its interesting how i digress.. now back to me singing.. huh? me? sing? retaded!!

School work vs Guitar

6th day of school and feeling the heat. Gutiar vs school work is cool... My inbuilt Hyper-Threading technology allows me to study while i play the guitar!!! lol... ok no... so today's practise was quite cool... a lot of things settled and many new systems in place :)

then there's this: http://schools.moe.edu.sg/ijc/supernova.htm

some "1st" inter-school rock competition... wtf?! wasn't the 1st one last year (maybe there were more... they all just claim to be "1st") at SAJC?!

haha time to ask my bandmates if they wanna join... three bands.. i wonder if i can perform for three bands? that'll be like guitar guitar guitar guitar vs sch wk...

To Do List: get my creative zen fixed at marina sq, math hol hw, nyaa 10k reports, guitar club junior orientation, jamming with 3 bands, tab out 2 syf pieces.

i think i'll be quite busy this coming two weeks.

CCA Bazaar 2007

ah crap. guitar club's performance during yesterday's cca bazaar was screwed again. only 26 signed up because we didn't really go around jioing people. i hope they're the commited people who'd stay on in guitar club.

anyway... i've finally cleared 50% of my room! haha i've completed impossible feat halfway... just need the other half to be cleared and i've done the impossible! feels good to throw away all my o level notes and some retarde a level notes away...

so... i've not completed my NEMO and langkawi 4k words/ea report... i'm gonna be so screwed if i don't send them to mr. tan tmr... ms teh also wants something like that so i guess i'll just send her the whole thing... i actually spent 3 hours writing a 3k worded letter abou guitar club to her instead of doing the reports... haha so wadever...

apart from that, i've got my holiday homework! haha mrs ang maths holiday homework by monday and i've yet to start on a single question... gj to me!

this year is going to be a fun year with so much stuff to plan and do... jammings, gigs, performances, more performances and not forgetting... a levels. fun as hell

Jolly happy merry not-so-new year

yes its the 2nd... nothing happend the past 2 boring days...

anyway, one of my new year's resolution: to clock at least 365 hours of electric guitar practise this year (most probably gonna hit 1000hours but nvm)

so have a blessed and wonderful 2007! we'll soon see what this year brings...

MOSH 07

woo! supposed to wake up at 6am yesterday to fetch my cousins and niece from the airport... but work up at 12 instead... -_-"

okay... tried to clear my room as usual but to no avail. worked on my nemo report which i'm supposed to submit by 1st jan too... completed the 1st day only out of 6 and its only 1.4k words..

wadever it is, cut my hair yesterday too... now i've got this spanking kuai kia hair cut all set and ready to own school!!!

today is the interesting day man! started off with me going to church to help with new year's decorations. i practised my long lost skill of bus chasing again after my st. gabs days a year ago! too bad failed... twice! haha. 1st i ran from my house to the bus stop further down. saw the 853 and sprinted. i swear the stupid kiam pa bus driver saw me ran like a mad man and although he stopped at the bus stop, he didn't wait for me... i was like 5 seconds away! so i decided to take a train. walked 5 mins to the train station and took a train to amk. ran down the stairs like a mad man again and jay-ed across the junction cuz i saw the same f'in 853 turning. i reached the bus stop and could board the 853 but was quite risky so i took the 135 behind instead. managed to reach church 5 seconds later than jamie who was on the 853! haha

then dominic said he was stung by a bee and couldn't come (he was incharge of this whole church canteen deco thingy) so audrey, jamie and i had to work by ourselves. we managed to do a good job and left chruch by 2+

rushed down to meet mr fam at clarke quay mrt station for dinner. after that we went to arts house for MOSH 07 gig with mr arriola. meet some of my st gab's buddies there; jemery, kelvin, shane... yup... the badns were freakin awesome... too bad i don't dig emo/screamo too well... soon after mella, cedric, sarah, john and bose came... it was a blast with all that moshing! then caracal performed and i met my old friend martin... basket that fella bluff me... 1 year ago he told me he dunno how to play drums. then today he performed wtf?! he pwned everyone! super ownage... vinyl summer was the only band who played real music... as in real... haha non-emo and all, the only different one in the lineup... then there was chicosci pinoy power and a vacant affair. we watched them until 12am... wtf last bus all gone.

rushed to cityhall mrt startion after that and found out that mrt station closed... bad news... all the 85+ buses were gone and every1 sorta panicked cuz no1 had enough $$ to pay midnight cab surcharge... luckily, we found a bustop with 162 and it said the last bus was 0027... we waited until 0035 and it didn't appear... basket freakin panicked again... then it came at 0038... #^%@!^$?!?!?! since when did last buses came over 10 mins after schedule?! ok nvm marcus and brandon stopped at ctk's bus stop and walked home (freakin far). then sarah got off at amk central and mella, cedric, some buddy and me got off at the last stop at yio chu kang mrt station. it was like 0130 then...

took a cab and chated with the uncle... he saw my guitar and said we reminded him of his sons and nephews... haha turns out that he's the father of the b-quartet boys! wow! lol... ok so got home at 0140 and yeah got a lil from my dad and here i am now typing this...

A post after a very long while..

So, I've decided to revive this blog... I don't even know why i'm blogging... hmm..

Anyway, yesterday's BBQ at Linus's house was quite fun thought it was raining... Especially the part where we used an electric fan to fan the fire... felt like some kinda flame thrower... Had soar throat, flu and fever and so, i refrained from eating stuff... But, cockyness spewed all over the place around the pit and i lost my f'in mood... I flared up a lil, but just a lil, and decided to enjoy the food, company, fun and games instead...

Good ol Shi Xian bought us a box of doughnuts which was like... whoa... sugar whored! nearly died eating a quater of one those! in the end, i tried to finnish some left overs and heck cared bout my throat... its still fine today! haha

Today morning sucked... Net was slow to a crawl as 2 of 7 net marine cables in Taiwan got busted no thanks to the damned earth quake... RIP to those who died in attempt to save their young ones...

supposed to clear my house today but... its a lot of work and i don't really know where to start... haha guess i'll just junk everything!

Anyway, tml's guitar practise's from 0900 to 1700... Our longest yet... wonder who'd turn up...

Pope John Paul II

was online at 8am and read about this news...

1st thing on my mind was: "oh... thats bad..." it just didn't went deeper then that.

went to church and read the new paper and was quited surprised that the front page caover wasn't about the pope... there was nothing about the pope on the front page and i was wondering why the new paper was so lagging...

flipped a few pages and the 1st thing i saw on the page bout the pope was this black and white photograph of him when he was a kid. it really struck me then that this guy was once like us - young, energetic and all...

i learned bout some of the things he had done for the catholic church and the world during the last 27 years as the pope and it made me realised something: life's too short, every1 dies one day, u can either be self centred or u can help others in life...

like my physics recently teacher told me:
-in a community of 5, if each helped himself and only himself, each person has only 1 person looking after him - himself...
-if each person helps the 4 others even without thinking of himself, there would still be 4 others looking after him...

so i pray for Ioannes Paulus PP. II Karol Wojtyla, that his journey to Heaven would be a smooth 1 and also, that who ever the new pope is, he will continue to lead the Catholic community well.

Need More Songs...

Gotta find more songs to fill my new Zen micro... 6GB of space...
