Linkin Park Live At The Indoor Stadium

2007-11-19T00:07:00.000+08:00

Sorry I didn't post this sooner. Linkin Park live at the Singapore Indoor Stadium (13 November), my third concert ever! Finally I get to see LP live! I was so psyched. The first time they performed here, I was having my exams and I only got to hear bits of them on the phone. Well, my sister called me, like all the other time she did for the other concerts she's been to like U2 and Gwen Stefani. Went to the concert with my sister(it's like her third LP gig), and her two friends. It only started at around 9pm. It was totally mad! MAD I tell you. The crowd was amazing! (check out the Crawling video and you'll know what I mean!) The people were better than those who attended the Oasis gig (but yeah, Oasis and LP are 2 totally different bands). People were singing along. They know word for word. It was sooo fun! And, I've been listening to their Projekt Revolution (Bootleg) album from Camden, New Jersey for one month or so... Can't wait for the Singapore one to be released in mid December. Should have taken more pictures (didn't upload all of them) but I couldn't really be bothered. Hahaha. Most of them were taken by my sister. Hope you enjoy your birthday treat. LINKIN PARK SOUNDS SO AWESOME LIVE! SERIOUSLY. Those who ever attended their concert should know :P

Sarcasm Test

2007-11-15T15:58:00.000+08:00

I was bored.

You Have Your Sarcastic Moments

While you're not sarcastic at all times, you definitely have a cynical edge.
In your opinion, not all people are annoying. Some are dead!
And although you do have your genuine moments, you can't help getting your zingers in.
Some people might be a little hurt by your sarcasm, but it's more likely they think you're hilarious.

How Sarcastic Are You?

Long Week...

2007-11-11T10:38:00.000+08:00

By popular request (Yeah, right), I'm going to blog today but in a slightly different manner. For the first time ever, I've got people to ask me questions. Okay, maybe not. Hahhahaha!

So anyway, having been attending school these days. Well, just two days and alot more days to come. I hate the fact that I have to miss school :(

Happy because I don't have to wake up early, wear the uniform and go through the boring rides to and fro school. Well, sad because. I don't get to see my friends and I'm afraid I'll be totally lost when I return :S

I'm doing quite alright now except that I have not taken my medication. I'm going to take them later and just sleep throughout the night. (Don't think that's possible though) I'm glad I was discharged from the hospital after just one day (I was referred to Changi General Hospital from Bedok Polyclinic). If it was to be any longer, I'll probably have more patches of blue black on my arms. Dr Gabriel had a hard time locating my veins. After 6 tries, he managed to get it right. It's without a doubt, painful. Had a CT scan and X rays during the night. The CT scan was actually really cool. After that chatted on the phone for like 2 hours, then called in a nurse to chat with her for about an hour because I was bored and couldn't sleep and consume anything till morning. Felt almost like fasting... Then I had macroni for breakfast and Deepavali special: Tandoori Fish with rice. I can't believe I'm saying this but hospital food is not that bad. Hahaha.

I just realised after one paragraph of being in the hospital, I forgot to mentioned what exactly was wrong with me. I had this neck problem. I don't really how to put it to words. According to my inpatient discharge summary, *Left sternocleidomastoid inflammation, suggestive of myosiits. No drainable abcess seen*. Nothing serious, thank GOD.

After being discharged, I went to the airport to eat at Popeye's restaurant. After the meal, I ate my medications which caused my eyes to swell up later that day when I was at the Expo for the book sale. Then the next day, I went to the Polyclinic again to get new medications. After that, I met Rashidah. The girl bought me an oreo doughnut for crying out loud! [Thanks girl, I feel like buying you a pink dress. Hahahaha!]

I came across really nice people at CGH, may GOD bless them all. They're very patient and they work long hours. So yeah, I just want to say a big THANK YOU to them all especially to those who attended to me. Also, I want to say Assalamualaikum to my sister Didi, friends, Rashidah and Maizurah. Hahaha. Okay, no. I want say well same thing, THANK YOU for being there for me.

I'm going to get lots and lots of rest tomorrow. I can't wait till Tueday ;)

Copperfield's Show Cancelled

2007-10-22T19:47:00.000+08:00

Many of you must have heard that David Copperfield's World Of Wonder show has been cancelled. He's been accused of rape. Pretty wild huh? I think he's innocent. I'm sooo sad! Hopefully he's going to perform here next year. *sighs*

Blah!

2007-10-03T00:28:00.001+08:00

Well, it's only 2 weeks to Hari Raya (If I'm not wrong) and I'm so not in the mood for it. I've never been in the mood for that. The family gatherings and such. I hate it. I have to help serve drinks and food. Stuff like that bores me. Can't wait to get over it and actually get back to school. This also means that holidays are coming to an end. I want to go out with my close friends because it'll be difficult for us to meet when school starts. So yeah, can't wait to hang out. I've been staying home quite alot and I need to get out. Hahaha! I need a life. I need a new hobby. I admit, I am a boring person. The only thing I like to do is listen to music. I feel like, a complete dork/jerk/gundu. Now, i'm pissed! I'm listening to this Gabriel & Dresden set and this radio DJ keep talking. OMG! Okay, nevermind. As I was saying, I need something new to occupy my time. Downloading TV shows, is not fun. That's the other thing I've been doing. From House to Dexter and Heroes and I'm trying to figure out how to rip Felicity episodes from Youtube so I could watch them again in future. Those, don't even add up to things that I need to do. I feel pathetic. I'm 17, I've never achieved anything in life.

22nd September

2007-09-23T16:28:00.000+08:00

So yeah, yesterday was my birthday. Didn't do anything much. Watched the MTV Video Music Awards in the afternoon. It's probably one of the worst one I've seen in years. I bet some of the performances were cut. Anyway, I didn't get alot of presents this year. My 2nd sister gave me $100, an Adidas perfume and necklace while my mom gave me $100. Rashidah baked me a cake which is I think is the sweetest thing anybody has done for me for my birthday. Thanks girl!

Some one smsed me and wished me but I have no idea who. The person also said that he/she changed his/her number to 9******** [Well, something like that. I couldn't really remember and your number begins with the number 8] I really want to know who you are because I didn't have your handphone number to begin with and I deleted the message by accident. If you're reading this please hit me up. Leave me a message on Friendster/Myspace or sms me again. I feel really bad because I didn't managed to say Thank You. Like I mentioned earlier, I want to know who you are because you wished me Happy Birthday, some of my close friends don't even remember my birthday! So yeah, if you're reading this, please get back to me because I'm really curious. I hope I don't have to wait till my next birthday :P

I saw this kitten yesterday and brought her in the house she looks abit like my former cat, Baby who I assumed she passed away as she mysteriously disappeared last year. But I decided not to keep her, placed her back at the void deck. I'm sure some one already adopted her because I was trying to look for her just now but she was not there anymore.

Heroes

2007-08-31T20:21:00.001+08:00

Went to Vivocity today with Hayati for the Heroes meet the fans event. It was pretty mad. Very mad. Insane! There was soo many people every where. Everyone was like pushing. And there was cameras, all sorts! Everywhere! So yeah, the first thing I did was hang around at the red carpet for around 40 mins and then they arrived. Everyone, I swear everyone had their cameras and started snapping photos of them. The security, was of course very very tight. 4 or 5 body guards were surrounding them it was so tough to even take a nice photo of them. So most of the photos were crap. It was other people's faces, hands cameras, and heads. Went to the stage area, and I didn't see Masi Oka and Ali Larter! Only saw Greg Grunberg & Sendhil Ramamurthy. Didn't get a good look though [Probably why I hate being short] Hahaha. So yeah, managed to squeezed my way to the front after like 10 minutes. Somehow, I love crowds but not when I can't see what's at the front. After a while they made their way to the exit. Went to follow them all the way till they got on their bus, it was there went I saw Masi Oka and Ali Larter. Then, I sat around at Vivocity on my own after Hayati went off with her mother and aunt. After half an hour or so I went home, exhausted but yeah, I was happy =) Now I can't wait for Heroes season 2! September 24 baby!

I know that they are crappy videos, but I feel better just putting them up :P

Fresh Fish!

2007-08-25T20:40:00.000+08:00

Here's some of my fish friends from Sheng Siong Supermarket. Having to watch them like that makes me feel like not eating fish anymore but then again I can't survive without eating them. My whole life I have been eating fish. I have always preferred fish than anything else. Oh well...

Hello!

2007-08-23T18:58:00.000+08:00

So yeah, after 2 months or so... I'm back! With a new layout!!! Well, actually I'm not sure what to blog about today. Nothing much happened lately. Exams coming up really soon and I really can't wait for it to be over. My last paper is on the 11 of September. Then it'll be the holidays. Can't wait for that one either. Not to mention the fasting month. I want to really enjoy myself before 13 September, I've got 2 days for that one. I'm not too sure whether that's enough :P

Another Random Update

2007-06-06T21:54:00.000+08:00

So, it's been like a month since I my last upload...I've been busy as you may guess. Actually, I hate blogging. It's time consuming also, I don't think anybody reads my blog. I feel like I'm talking to myself right now. Well, whatever. Hahaha.

If anybody cares or wants to know, I've been doing just fine. Took some random photos in the SOT room. No idea what it stands for. I think it's State Of Trance :P LOL. If you do know please tell me. Okay, I feel dumb. It's the room where the a part of the ceiling seems as though it's going to fall down anytime soon, and the computers have been well, just look at the pictures you'll get what I mean. Hmm, I don't think I got the picture of the falling ceiling though. Also, look what Nicole found on one of the keyboards.

One of the days earlier this month, I think. I found this bee, insect thingy [Not quite sure what it's called] before Mdm Rajes' lesson, brought it in class and placed it on Mrs Loh table till the end of the day. After school, stayed back with Nicole to do homework... A bird came in the classroom jumped from table to table and actually ate our bee insect thingy friend [who was already dead to begin with] :(

Also, check out what Mrs Loh wrote on Nicole's ACF assignment. [On her drawing, not her work. Haha!]

One week ago, I watched Pirates Of The Caribbean with Nicole at Orchard Cineleisure. I didn't really like the movie, but I did enjoy the Davy Jones scenes. He's the hottest thing ever! Well, besides Jack Sparrow that is. I wouldn't want to watch the movie again but I love the soundtrack especially the song titled, One Day.

Next week is going to be the end of the term and holidays will start. I can't wait. No wait. I can wait. Holidays is going to be so damn boring. I probably stay home and be online most of the time anyway. I want to meet my friends during the break. You guys should know who you are...

Random Update

2007-05-05T22:48:00.000+08:00

Hello, I've been kinda busy...which is probably why I didn't update for a very long time. My brain can't function properly right now. I'm too sleepy. So, I'm going to type out some stuff in point form because I'm just too lazy to put them in sentences

-Mu Zhen said this two weeks ago, 'She invited me to get married'. She wanted to say that her colleague invited her to her wedding but she got the words mixed up.
-Then she said, 'I wish a miracle would happen *pauses* Plants can talk..!'
-School's already started, met a whole bunch of fun people *I'm grateful for that*
- I went to watch Spiderman 3 on Wednesday *I'm sure you watched that too!*
- Just now, I went to watch Jangan Pandang Belakang *my very first Malay movie at a cinema*
- For now, I enjoy saying the words 'Circle Circle Dot Dot' & 'Roar' *I know it's lame, but I just can't help me. Sorry!*
- Davy Jones, is the sexiest cephaloppod alive! *It's true!*
- Gabriel Sylar is the sexiest psychopath ever!
- Remember to ask for extra Oreo when getting McFlurry

Davy Jones, cause he's bringing sexy back

Till the next post, take care =)

Thoughts On Parasite

2007-03-23T14:45:00.000+08:00

Hello, I was browsing through one of those Heroes LJ community and came across a post by *gargyloveswolfy* It's pretty funny so I thought I'd share it with all of you.

1. Ando saves Hiro. Hiro gets the sword. Hiro and Ando jump into the future, post-apolatyc NYC.......say about 5 years.....as it looks still in ruins but they are rebuilding........some new buildings are in place......and others are in the midst of going up.

2. Claire gives the Haitian the slip at the airport, after pick-pocketing his unaware ass. They meet up again at Peter's apartment in NYC, present day of course. However, the Haitian does not open the door. Bio-Granny does.

3. HRG is so busted.

4. Issac paints his future after finding his hiding stash.

5. Mohinder=Momentary Genuis, then right back to stupid.

6. Peter walks into trouble. Screaming worse than a girl. Watch that stupid lock of hair fall to the floor. Could this be the scar everyone's been waiting for?

7. Sylar vs. Peter will be in the next totally present day episode. 1.19.

8. Who does not know about the people with special "gifts" "abilities" etc. would be the shorter list.

After watching 18 episodes of Heroes, I just found out what HRG stands for. Horned Rimmed Glasses, referring to Claire's father. I really like points number 5 & 6. Peter did scream worser than a girl, particularly Jackie in the Homecoming episode.

Now, I can't wait for episode 19, April 23 which is like one month from now :(

23rd March 2007 - 2.25pm

Music And Lyrics

2007-03-13T11:59:00.000+08:00

I was out with my sister just now. We went to watch Music And Lyrics. Such a good film! I love the song Pop! Goes My Heart, it drives me crazy. The song is stuck in my head right now. It's been on repeat mode for the last 2 hours or so.

I said I wasn't gonna lose my head
But then POP! goes my heart
I wasn't gonna fall in love again
But then POP! Goes my heart

LOL!

Well, here's the synopsis:

Alex Fletcher is a washed-up '80s pop star who's been reduced to working the nostalgia circuit at county fairs and amusement parks. The charismatic and talented musician gets a chance at a comeback when reigning diva Cora Corman invites him to write and record a duet with her, but there's a problem--Alex hasn't written a song in years, he's never written lyrics, and he has to come up with a hit in a matter of days. Enter Sophie Fisher, Alex's beguilingly quirky plant lady, whose flair for words strikes a chord with the struggling songwriter. On the rebound from a bad relationship, Sophie is reluctant to collaborate with anyone, especially commitment-phobe Alex. As their chemistry heats up at the piano and under it, Alex and Sophie will have to face their fears--and the music--if they want to find the love and success they both deserve.

I'd rate this movie is 3 and a half stars out of 5. You guys should watch the movie if you have not ;)

Girlfriend - Avril Lavigne

2007-03-12T23:59:00.000+08:00

I went out with Mu Zhen today. We went to the airport to eat at Popeyes. 2 piece chicken with fries, large ice lemon tea, fries, biscuit and whipped potato costs $7.45. Kinda cheap eh? The 2 pieces of chicken, so damn big! I can't even eat them. So I brought them home. Hahaha!

So anyway, the latest Avril Lavigne track, Girlfriend... I can't believe I'm saying this but I actually like the song and the video. I didn't really like it at first, the song is so not like her. But who cares right?

And I heard she's married.

Numerology

2007-03-11T00:23:00.000+08:00

I'm a Life Path 5 Person

The key to your personality is freedom. You love travel, adventure, variety and meeting new people. You posses the curiosity of a cat, and you long to experience all of life. You love to be involved in several things at the same time, as long as you are not tied down to any one area.

You like change, new things and new horizons. You can make friends easily, and your personality is upbeat and often inspiring, attracting people form all walks of life.

You have a way with words, and an uncanny ability to motivate others. Highly suitable vocations for you include sales, promotion, entertainment, investment, science, medicine, the occult, public service an all careers that require travel and verbal skills. A person with 5 Life Path is often comfortable in front of an audience particularly as master of ceremonies or in comedy.

You are sensual and you love to taste all of life. You find it difficult to commit to one relationship, but once you committed, you can be faithful as an old dog.

You likely lack discipline and order. You can also be impulsive, doing or expressing things you regret later. Freedom and a need for adventures sometimes are not properly controlled y those born with this life path, which can cause problems with drug abuse, overindulgence in food or sex, or general abuse of the gift of life. You are multitalented and posses a variety of diverse abilities. However, discipline and focus are the true keys to your success. Without these, many of the tasks you begin will remain unfinished and they will fail to realize the true fruits of your abilities. With hard work and perseverance, the sky is the limit.

You may have been perceived as a wild child by adults and a source of concern by your family. However, do not be obliged to hurry your choice of career. You are often a late bloomer, and you need to experience life before you can truly know and commit to your heart's desire.

Your challenge is to learn the true meaning of freedom. Change is constant in your world, requiring adaptability and courage. Try to maintain an exercise program, keep your body in shape and limber. The flexibility and durability of your body will promote security and confidence within you.

You yearn for freedom, and self-employment attracts you powerfully. Your challenge is to settle into one area in order to cultivate your ability sufficiently to earn a living and to attain success. Once you find the niche, the motivation and inspiration you supply to others will bring you much in return. You will find your friends and colleges supporting and promoting you in the road of success.

I don't know how true this is though.

Walk Down - Kyau & Albert

2007-03-03T17:52:00.000+08:00

This video/song drives me crazy! It's Kyau & Albert live with the song Walk Down.

I think I've watched this video for more than 10 times, back to back. Haha. Tell me if you want the song. Watch the music video it's featured on my 'video of the week' ;)

Mr Insivible Man

2007-02-28T18:20:00.000+08:00

Hey, sorry I haven't been updating my blog. I didn't have the mood to do so. I'm just dropping by today. Nothing really to update about actually. On Saturday, my mom woke me up at 8am in the morning because U2 was on TV. Damn, I love her. Haha!

Okay, so during the weekend I was at home watching Dr Who with my sister. During the show she told me that the Dr Who & Claude [Invisible Man] from Heroes was played by the same actor, Christopher Eccleston. I didn't believed it at first but after really looking at Claude, then I realised that she was right.

If she didn't tell me that they're the same person, It'll never cross my mind that these two characters are actually Christopher Eccleston.

Okay, enough about him.

It really saddens me to know that season one of Heroes is coming to an end :(

So anyway, I came across this fan video of Heroes on youtube.com The video is dedicated to the men from the show. Check it out :D

I'm bringing sexy back.. Okay, no. Till the next post. Take care ;)

Post Grammy Update

2007-02-14T21:49:00.000+08:00

Hello, so I'm back again updating my blog just after 2 days. So yesterday I went to school to collect back my Art stuff with Baidura but Mr Anne Chan said they're only allowed to be brought back if we had an interview to attend to. So it's kind of a waste of time to go back to school.

Actually, I'm still kind of in the Grammy mood so since the performances have been put up on Youtube.com, I decided to share them with all of you here. So if you missed the Grammy awards on Monday, this are the few moments worth watching.

Justin Timberlake's performance of 'What Goes Around (Comes Around)

He mentioned that this song was the best song he ever written & I have to agree with him. What Goes Around (Comes Around) is the best Justin song ever! I love the song & the music video. You can view the music video from my previous post. During the last part of the performance, he used a digital camera and did kind of like the Blair Witch project thing. It's so damn awesome. It reminded me of Geraldine's version of night life. See Rashidah, Justin didn't looked all that scary after all. I bet the performance and the song earned him tons of new fans. Talking about Justin Timberlake, I just watched Nelly Furtado's video, Promiscuous yesterday and realised that he made a cameo appearance. I know the video has been released a long time ago but I just watched it in full on my ipod.

The other memorable moment of the Grammy Awards this year was when Corinne Bailey Rae, John Legend, and John Mayer took the stage. Together each artist sang one of their songs while being accompanied by the other two. Rae started with "Like A Star" followed by a gorgeous "Coming Home" by John Legend. The medley ended with "Gravity" by John Mayer, who performed a wicked guitar solo before picking up the Grammy for best male pop vocal album for Continuum.

So I guess, that's it for today ;)

Grammy Awards

2007-02-12T23:09:00.000+08:00

Hey, it's been quite some time since I last updated. I've been kind of busy or just plain lazy to do so. Anyway, managed to watch the Grammy Awards live. Went to Rashidah's place to do so. It's impossible to watch television early in the morning here. It's my first time watching it live so I got pretty excited. We missed a few minutes, The Police's performance of Roxanne. That was suppose to be their first performance together since 2003 [Rock & Roll Hall Of Fame, with John Mayer, Gwen Stefani & Steven Tyler]. This year's winners were quite unexpected. Dixie Chicks were like on stage most of the time accepted awards. Justin Timberlake's What Goes Around (Comes Around) performance was great. The first time I listened to that song was a few days ago and I just watched the music video just now. It's a very good one. You should watch it. Be warned though, it's 9 minutes & 15 seconds. [That's just the director's cut]

So back to the Grammys. I love John Mayer's performance of Gravity. It's so good, that I watched the repeat for it ;) He won Best Pop Vocal Performance & Best Pop Vocal album.

John Mayer should really release Slow Dancing In A Burning Room as a single. I love that song! My favourite track from Continuum. You can listen to it on the player on your right. I shortened the title to 'Slow Dancing'. Tell me what you think. Time really flies, I remember on my last Grammy post, I upload tons of U2 pictures. *Sighs* I can't wait for their next album which is produced by Rick Rubin.

Till my next post, take care :D

Yesterday's Day Out

2007-02-03T18:03:00.000+08:00

Was out bowling yesterday with Farahdillah. Thought of postponing the whole thing on Monday because Maizurah couldn't make it. She's not feeling well. I hope you'll recover soon. Well, we went bowling at Tampines Safra. Lucky her, she could walk from home to the alley. Only played two games. Initially, I wanted to play more but her mother took her money away before she left home.[I'm glad I don't have anybody at home who does this] So I had to pay for her, no choice. Farah didn't want to go on a bus because the fares were according to adult charges. After around one and a half hours she had to go off. She said that people who 'dah pergi Haji tak boleh keluar lama - lama' [I don't know how far true this is] then she added that her Auntie passed away. Well, then she went home.

After that, went to meet Rashidah & her boyfriend. We went to Pasir Ris Park, met this dudes

Jasmine

Charlie

John Doe

Jane Doe

We hung around for around one hour or so and head home. We might come back next week to ride them. I'm hoping to bring Maizurah along ;)

Maizurah, get well soon. Remember to eat your medication on time.

For all of you who haven't heard of this, it has been confirmed that that the O Level results will be out on Febuary 9. *sighs*

Dexter/ Pan's Labyrinth

2007-01-24T14:36:00.000+08:00

Didn't get the chance to out last week, I was sick. After eating a whole box of Christmas chocolates, I fell ill. Because of that, I wasn't able to go to the poly open houses. I also had a fever, but I'm alright now. Thank you Rashidah & Maizurah for their concern on my well being. I also want to wish Happy Birthday to Farahdillah.

As you can see, I changed the U2 images to Dexter. Well, if you haven't heard of it, it's a Showtime original television series starring Michael C. Hall as serial killer Dexter Morgan, who works as a forensics analyst (specializing in bloodstain pattern analysis) for the Miami-Dade Police Department. The series is based on the novel Darkly Dreaming Dexter by Jeff Lindsay. Dexter Morgan has always been compared to Dexter's Laboratory [Yes, that Cartoon Network Show] So I decided to put their pictures side by side and compare them.]

The both of them have red hair, a sister and they work in a laboratory. Interesting eh?

You could watch the show on http://tv.peekvid.com/s3497 or on the Fox Crime channel if you have Digital TV that is.

Well yesterday, I went to watch Pan's Labyrinth [El Laberinto Del Fauno] with my sister. It's a great Spanish film, worth watching. It's also the very first movie I've seen this year. [Sorry GV for spilling Cookie Crisps all over the floor :P]

Here's the synopsis:

Set in 1940s Spain against the postwar repression of Franco's Spain, a fairy tale that centers on Ofelia, a lonely and dreamy child living with her mother and adoptive father, who is a military officer tasked with 'ridding the area' of rebels. In her loneliness, Ofelia creates a world filled with fantastical creatures and secret destinies. With Fascism at its height, Ofelia must come to terms with her world through a fable of her own creation.

You guys should watch the movie too :D

Random Post

I haven't been blogging for a week now, didn't have the mood so. Well, last week was fun. Went out with Aznee & Ruzanna on Wednesday. We were supposed to meet up at 4pm but all of us only met at 5.30pm. Aznee was super late but me & Ruzanna had quite a fun time waiting. LOL. We went to Pan Pacific for Ruzie's job interview. She got the job, I'm so proud of her! Then we went to HMV, walk around and made our way back to Bedok. Afiqah was supposed to join us for dinner but she couldn't make it :( We ate at Long John Silver's and I head on home. I didn't know what the both of them did when I left. Haha.

Then on Friday, I went out with Rashidah. It was raining so badly that day. We went to HMV [Haha, I love that place], Ngee Ann Civic Plaza [Well, Orchard library] and lastly to Shaw and had our dinner. We took the bus 65 home. It was a very long bus ride but nonetheless we had fun.

Nothing much happened during the weekends, it's the usual grocery shopping with my mom on Saturdays. *sighs* Every week, it's the same old routine. But, I do enjoy it but I have to admit, I'm sick of the Giant Superstore at Bedok, Shing Shong [However you spell it] & lastly NTUC. We don't go to every supermarket in one day [LOL!]. Well, that's life.

Yesterday I came across this video called Cats Talking on Zorpia. Pretty hilarious stuff~! You have to watch it ;)

I love the last cat - Oh My Dog, Oh Long John, Oh Long Johnson, Oh Don Piano, Why I Eyes Ya [Particularly, love this phrase], All The live Long Day :)

Well, today I went out with Mu Zhen. Yey! Haha, it's been 2 months since I last saw her. We went to Music Junction to get her Farenheit CD [It includes a pass to their autograph session & a poster] Haha. Well, then we went to Orchard! Went to HMV ;) , Borders & ate dinner at Fish & Co. The food there was awesome! Lastly we went back by bus. Very long bus ride to Tampines Interchange, to the extend that we fell asleep. Haha. We didn't want to take the MRT because there won't be any seats [Peak hour eh] Then we went seperate ways, she took MRT to Pasir Ris and met her friends at White Sands while I went back to Music Junction to purchase the U2 18 Singles. It's not actually for sale but hey, I've no shame and asked for it ;) Paid 2 dollars for it. Haha, I did the same thing when they had the How To Dismantle An Atomic Bomb poster which I paid a dollar more.

Well, I think that's it. Take Care :D

My Weekend

2007-01-07T19:43:00.000+08:00

The weekend has been boring so far. Well, I went out just now with my mom, I got a hair straightener & curler for fun. Now, I don't have money anymore. Haha... Somehow, it's been clear to me that my own best friends don't even have time to go out with me. They're busy working and also with their own lives... As for me, I think it's too late to get a job already. But it would be so cool to work at HMV. Yesterday, my father bought me a guitar. I was quite surprise because I wasn't really serious about playing. I thought it would just be cool to own one. Haha... Being online nowadays also has been boring. No new sites to go to. It's always the same old ones, myspace, friendster and gmail. It's been such a bore. The only reasons why I go online is to chat and check my mail. I don't think I'm going to blog anytime soon because there's nothing going on in my life. Till next time, take care.

A Bad Day

2007-01-05T13:28:00.000+08:00

I'm watching Bawang Putih Bawang Merah while bloging right now. Today, nothing much happened. Yesterday was pretty much a bad day for me. I went out with Maizurah & Saihah.We took the bus 65 to Vivocity. It's a very long bus ride I must say and pretty boring too. Saihah & Maizurah was sitting and chatting with each other. Of course, I felt left out and thought to myself, what the hell i'm doing here. There are times that I tried to interrupt and also get myself into the conversation. But it didn't really work. Luckily, I brought my Ipod with me or else I'd probably go insane. Soon as we arrived at Vivo, we walked around and realised there's nothing much to see there. I wanted to get the (Red) shirt at Gap but it wasn't available. So we went off to Plaza Singapura to eat. The food there wasn't tasty at all. Well, we walked around. While walking, I still felt left out because they were together. [Well, best friends seem to be unseparable at times] I was walking behind them like a bodyguard of some sort. I was starting to feel fed up. At first the plan so to go Orchard or Bugis or whatsoever but the day didn't go as planned. I was disappointed. Finally, they wanted to make their way home. But they went ahead first when I was deciding whether to take the bus 65 or MRT. Then I got a phone call from my sister, she told me to take the MRT because the bus ride home would have taken a long time. Minutes later, Maizurah called me and asked me where I was, I said I was at Outram Park. Then she accused me of leaving both of them by themselves. Well, I was alone but it didn't really matter because I was listening to music so, the ride home wasn't much of a bore. Somehow, I regret going out yesterday. I never thought that things will go out this way. Whatever it is, never go out with a friend whose bringing along his or her best pal or you'll probably end up like me.

Long New Year Weekend

2007-01-04T02:28:00.000+08:00

I know it's a little too late now but Happy New Year! I hope you will have a great year ahead. There's so many things I'm looking forward to this year. Some of the things are meeting new people, new album releases by U2, INXS & Coldplay, and also new movies such as Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles and Pirates Of The Caribbean. I didn't go to any countdowns or whatsoever. Stayed home the whole day since it was also Hari Raya Haji.

On Tueday, channel 5 aired U2: Zoo TV. I got excited when I first heard they it's going to be shown on TV [Even though I own the DVD]. But after watching it, I wasn't very happy. Now, I'm going to tell you why...

First of all, the actual show is 1 hour and 58 minutes long. But the TV version is less than an hour. To top it all off, The Fly, Mysterious Ways, Pride, With Or Without You [OMG!] was cut along with other songs. That's like the must see U2 performance. I know I'm beginning to get worked up with this but really... 10 out of 22 songs... Argh. Okay. If you're a U2 fan, just get the DVD. [I got mine for free :D] Haha.

As for today, I've been watching this Indonesian sinetron, Bawang Merah, Bawang Putih [I've done so for the past week]. My sister bought like the whole series on VCD and I've been watching back to back episodes everyday with my mother. I'm starting to wonder why all these shows has to include somebody being tortured. Example, in the show Dia, Dwi has been tormented by her step mom Fifi and her step sister Susi. While in the show Hikmah, Ana has beed tortured by her step- mom, Eli. Lastly in Bawang Merah Merah, Bawang Putih, Alya is being tortured by her step mom, Reka and step sister Siska. Then I realised all these shows are by the same director. Also situations tend to get more and more complicated through the series which is probably why I get so hooked with these sinetrons. Indonesian shows are way better than Singapore's own television series. It's so true. Well, that's just my point of view.

You guys have to watch the show, it's great. I better get going. Take care ;)

Snow Cake

2006-12-28T15:04:00.000+08:00

Hello, I went to watch Snow Cake with my sister yesterday at Cathay, Picturehouse. This movie deserves a 4 out of 5 stars rating.It's a deeply moving movie, very touching, but not an especially happy one. It's a GREAT movie, worth watching. There's a hilarious scene where Alan Rickman wails along to the Stereophonics on headphones [Listen to the song on the player below] Also, there's this memorable scene where Alex was playing Scrabble with Linda. Check it out here.

Here's the synopsis:

SNOW CAKE is a UK-Canadian co-production produced by Gina Carter and Andrew Eaton from Revolution Films and Canadian based Producers Niv Fichman and Jessica Daniel from Rhombus Media. The script is by first-time UK screenwriter Angela Pell and Directed by UK based Marc Evans.

SNOW CAKE is a film about friendship, trust, snow, acceptance, obsessive behaviour, a dog called Marilyn, and about the power of friendship, no matter how eccentric, to change our lives and heal our hearts.

Tight-lipped Englishman Alex Hughes (ALAN RICKMAN) arrives in Northern Ontario on his way to meet the woman with whom he’s had a son. He’s bullied by an altogether unconventional but lovable 19 year-old hitch-hiker Vivienne (EMILY HAMPSHIRE) into giving her a ride to her hometown of Wawa. When the car is hit by a truck on the outskirts of her home town, Vivienne dies instantly. Alex finds himself, for the second time in his life, grieving for someone he never knew.

Shocked and stranded in snowbound Wawa, Alex is drawn to seek out Vivienne’s mother, to talk to her in person about the fate of her daughter. He also goes armed with trinkets and children’s amusements that Vivienne has picked up along the way for her mother. Alex knocks on the door and comes face to face with Linda Freeman (SIGOURNEY WEAVER). Linda is no ordinary Mother.

Alex soon becomes aware that Linda is an adult autistic, albeit a high-functioning one. He becomes increasingly involved in Linda’s life and the community to which she feels complete indifference, in large part because of her condition. Linda in turn becomes attached – as attached as she is emotionally capable of – to Alex and what he can do for her.

Alex also forms a relationship with Linda’s sassy independent neighbour Maggie (CARRIE-ANNE MOSS), and is the object of scrutiny by the ineffectual local law enforcement officer Clyde (JAMES ALLODI), who, besides being jealous of Alex’s relationship with Maggie, believes he’s discovered a dark secret in Alex’s past.

When Alex finally gets back on the road he has exorcised his inner demons, and the town he leaves behind has also been transformed. He had been tempted to stay and make more of his relationship with Maggie, but knows that it wouldn’t suit either one of them. He must return to his life and holds out a faint hope that Linda and Maggie may become, if not exactly friends, then at least more accepting of each other. As the snow melts, each character’s memories remain intact but are changed forever by their experiences with each other.

The movie also offers a great soundtrack, here are some of the songs featured...

1. Just Looking -Stereophonics
2. Hello Sunshine Super Furry Animals
3. Anthems For A Seventeen Year Old Girl- Broken Social Scene
4. The Same Deep Water As Me -I am Kloot
5. The First Cut is the Deepest
6. Let It Die - Feist

Be sure to watch the movie ;)

Night At The Museum

2006-12-24T23:22:00.000+08:00

Yesterday, I went to watch Night At The Museum with my mother. The movie was pretty good. I think this was my first comedic movie this year. This movie deserves a better rating than just 2 out of 5 stars [From the Today Newspaper] or a C [ From Yahoo] I'd give it a 3 and a half stars our of 5. You have to watch this movie, especially if you need a good laugh. My favourite quote from the movie is 'Want gum-gum from the dum-dum' by an Easter Island head (voiced by "Everybody Loves Raymond's" Brad Garrett)

Here's the synopsis for the movie...

Good-hearted dreamer Larry Daley, despite being perpetually down on his luck, thinks he's destined for something big. But even he could never have imagined how big, when he accepts what appears to be a menial job as a graveyard-shift security guard at a museum of natural history. During Larry's watch, extraordinary things begin to occur: Mayans, Roman Gladiators, and cowboys emerge from their diorama to wage epic battles; in his quest for fire, a Neanderthal burns down his own display; Attila the Hun pillages his neighboring exhibits, and a T-Rex reminds everyone why he's history's fiercest predator. Amidst the chaos, the only person Larry can turn to for advice is a wax figure of President Teddy Roosevelt , who helps our hero harness the bedlam, stop a nefarious plot, and save the museum.

Celebrity Deathmatch - Bono VS Chris Martin

2006-12-23T13:26:00.000+08:00

I was watching Celebrity Deathmatch yesterday, and thought I'd post this. Few weeks ago, there was match between Chris Martin [Coldplay] VS Bono [U2] Guess who wins?

Friendster Issues

2006-12-20T21:26:00.000+08:00

Today, has been such a boring day. When out for a while just now to get some stuff. Got home and went online. My friendster account is BUSTED. I can't login using Internet Explorer. Anybody has the same problem? Though it's possible to login using Mozilla Firefox but I found out that my profile is all plain. The background, font and everything is set to default! I hate friendster already. First they change the layout, then this. Maybe I'll just leave it as it is because there's nothing much on Friendster anyway. I even thought of deleting my account...

If you have viewed my blog for last few days, you will realised that I've replaced the music image with the U2 picture and that the words 'music baby!' is no longer found beside the headings. That's because, I thought music was too general. Yes, I do like music but... In the image there's like I love New York and so on. So I thought I'd replace it. I spend like 3 hours just now, editing the picture and adjusting the position of the side image. It's fixed so the picture will still be there even if you scroll down the page. Well, I'm really happy with the layout of my blog now :P

Image Credit

2006-12-20T01:46:00.000+08:00

Hello! Today, has been a good day. Haha, I spent practically the whole day online. Well, remember the Q Magazine cover I posted yesterday? Maizurah has cleverly edited the image and came up with this..!

Noel Gallagher & Bono, just like how I wanted it to be. I'm loving this picture. Haha.

Also, I want to give credit to her for merging 4 individual pictures of the members of U2 into one. I'm refering to the image [photographed by Andrew Macpherson] on the right. Job well done. Thank you ;)

It's still raining outside, I hope it rains throughout the week because I'm just getting used to the cold weather. Well, take care...

Window In The Skies

2006-12-18T15:57:00.003+08:00

U2's new single, Window In The Skies will be released on the 1st of January 2007

You can listen to the song here, it's in the music player. View the video, it's a work of brilliant editing, the video stars a dazzling cast of rock’n’roll icons from Elvis Presley to Marvin Gaye, Patti Smith to Frank Sinatra.. and dozens of others. And everyone is on on lead vocals. As for U2 themselves – you’ll be hard pressed to spot them. (But you just might). Tell me what you think ;)

Noel Gallagher Wearing Bono's Shades

2006-12-18T15:35:00.000+08:00

Check out this picture, I'm sure all Oasis & U2 fans are going to like this one :P

I have this issue of the Q Magazine but not this cover. Apparently they don't have this one here in Singapore. Noel looks so cute wearing Bono's shades ;)

Being A Bitch

2006-12-18T02:28:00.000+08:00

Hello there, I've decided to start blogging like everybody else. I know I've had this blog for quite some time now but my posts are only movie reviews, etc. So since I spend most of the time online, I thought why not blog. I've changed the layout and also added a tagboard. I hope you people will use it ;)

Okay, so I've been bored at home since the exams. Have I started working? No. The answer's no. If you want to brag to me about your job, about how good you life is, please don't ever talk to me. I'm serious. Just now, someone was like asking me, 'Are you working or rotting at home. 'I love my life, my pay is like $1000 per month. Are you going on a holiday during this long break?, I've just went on 1 for 2 weeks with my family'. OMG, what's your intention girl? I've never asked you all these questions. I know you just want to show off. Is that it? First of all, what I'm doing, how I'm leading my life, is my problem, my business. Why do you care if it suck? If any of you out there want to know who she is, she's an anti - bitch. I'm sure, if you've been my classmate, you can figure out who she is very easily. Well, I think... She was being a bitch.

Casino Royale

2006-11-21T20:57:00.000+08:00

Hello again, just wanna say that I watched the movie again yesterday with Maizurah [29 November]... *MUST WATCH* Okay. :D

Hello everyone! I know I haven't been blogging for quite some time now. To tell you the truth, I've been kinda lazy. Never really had anything to blog on. Since Mission Impossible 3, I've watched other movies like Pirates Of The Caribbean: The Dead's Man Chest, Monster House,Superman & Miami Vice (Not sure if I missed any) I'm sure, some of you already watched these. Yesterday, after the exams, me & Ruo Xuan went to watch Casino Royale. I am so glad we did because the new Bond (Daniel Craig) was so hot! Casino Royale is a must watch..! 5 out of 5 stars baby! Best movie this year, beats Pirates Of The Caribbean & X-Men 3. Here's the synopsis of the movie...

James Bond's first 007 mission takes him to Madagascar, where he is to spy on a terrorist Mollaka. Not everything goes as planned and Bond decides to investigate, independently of the MI6 agency, in order to track down the rest of the terrorist cell. Following a lead to the Bahamas, he encounters Dimitrios and his girlfriend, Solange. He learns that Dimitrios is involved with Le Chiffre, banker to the world's terrorist organizations. Secret Service intelligence reveals that Le Chiffre is planning to raise money in a high-stakes poker game in Montenegro at Le Casino Royale. MI6 assigns 007 to play against him, knowing that if Le Chiffre loses, it will destroy his organization. 'M' places Bond under the watchful eye of the beguiling Vesper Lynd. At first skeptical of what value Vesper can provide, Bond's interest in her deepens as they brave danger together--and even torture at the hands of Le Chiffre. In Montenegro, Bond allies himself with Matthis, MI6's local field agent, and Felix Leiter, who is representing the interests of the CIA. The marathon game proceeds with dirty tricks and violence, raising the stakes beyond blood money and reaching a terrifying climax.

Dr Robert Chase

Congratulations, you're Dr. Robert Chase! You're quite the complicated person. While you may seem like a perfectly normal extremely attractive person, there is far more to you than meets the eye. It's quite likely that you've had some unusual experiences in your life, whether it be something along the lines of a stint in seminary school or something along the lines of S&M parties. You are rather insecure, and will often do things you don't want to do to win the good favors of others. While you may seem nice enough, getting ahead and doing what's best for yourself is usually more important to you than much else in life.

X Men 3: The Last Stand

2006-06-07T16:52:00.000+08:00

Hey! I watched X Men 3: The Last Stand yesterday with my sister. The movie was so damn awesome! Man, I feel like watching it again. Anyway, I love Wolverine (Hugh Jackman) He's so hot! I was kind of disappointed that Mystic lost her mutantanic genes. Well, it was a really awesome movie..! The best movie this year and also the best of all 3 X-Men movies. But I don't think many will agree with me. Hope there's going to be a sequel to it... Here's a synopsis of the movie.

In X-MEN: THE LAST STAND, the climax of the X-Men motion picture trilogy, a cure for mutancy threatens to alter the course of history. For the first time, mutants have a choice: retain their uniqueness, though it isolates and alienates them, or give up their powers to fit in. The opposing viewpoints of mutant leaders Charles Xavier, who preaches tolerance, and Eric Lehnsherr (Magneto), who believes in the survival of the fittest, are put to the ultimate test – triggering the war to end all wars.

X-MEN: THE LAST STAND reunites the stars of the first two X-Men films: Hugh Jackman as Wolverine, a solitary fighting machine who possesses amazing healing powers, retractable adamantium claws and an animal-like fury; Halle Berry as Storm, who can manipulate all forms of weather and fly; Ian McKellen as Magneto, a powerful mutant who can control and manipulate metal; Patrick Stewart as Xavier, a telepath and the founder and leader of the X-Men; Famke Janssen as Jean Grey, a mutant with incalculably powerful telekinetic and telepathic abilities; Anna Paquin as Rogue, who absorbs the powers and threatens the life of anyone she touches; Rebecca Romijn as the shape-shifting Mystique; James Marsden as Cyclops, whose eyes release an energy beam that can rip holes through mountains; and Shawn Ashmore as Iceman, who can lower his body temperature and radiate intense cold.

Also reprising their X2 roles are Aaron Stanford as fire-manipulator Pyro and Daniel Cudmore as Colossus, who can change his flesh into organic steel.

Kelsey Grammer joins the X-MEN: THE LAST STAND cast as one of the X-Men universe’s most beloved characters: Dr. Henry McCoy, also known as Beast. McCoy is a highly intelligent geneticist, a mutant endowed with superhuman agility and physical prowess. As the subject of one of his own experiments, McCoy mutated further, growing blue, bestial fur. Brett Ratner, who established a motion picture franchise with Rush Hour, and expanded the Silence of the Lambs franchise with Red Dragon, directs.

I give the movie 4 stars out of 5... Well, I'd recommend the movie to everyone. I really enjoyed the movie so I guess you will too..! Make sure you watch it :D

Mission Impossible 3

2006-05-18T16:06:00.000+08:00

Hey! I watched Mission Impossible 3 yesterday with my sister. It was quite a good movie. I'm not good at summarising. So here's the synopsis...

Super-spy Ethan Hunt (Tom Cruise) has retired from active duty to train new IMF agents. But he is called back into action to confront the toughest villain he's ever faced - Owen Davian (Philip Seymour Hoffman), an international weapons and information provider with no remorse and no conscience. Hunt assembles his team - his old friend Luther Strickell (Ving Rhames), transportation expert Declan (Jonathan Rhys Meyers), background operative Zhen (Maggie Q), and fresh recruit Lindsey (Keri Russell) - to travel the globe pursuing Davian and rescue Hunt's love, Julia (Michelle Monaghan)

Taken from www.yahoo.com

I give the movie 3 stars out of 5... Well, I'd recommend the movie to everyone who enjoys action packed movies.

Ari Wibowo At Plaza Singapura

2006-04-04T13:02:00.000+08:00

Hey, sorry I didn't update for quite some time. Well, I was at Plaza Singapura the other day to see Ari Wibowo. He's from the show 'Dia' & 'Cinta Berkalang Noda'. Hmmm, everybody waited for quite some time till he arrived. Around 30,000 people who turn up for the event. Anyway, here are some pictures that I manage to take...

Oasis Live In Singapore

2006-02-24T23:27:00.000+08:00

Hey all, Oasis was here in Singapore for the very fist time yesterday. It was also my first time going to a live concert & obviously, I got really excited. Well, the concert started at around 8.35 or so. The opening song was Fuckin' In The Bushes. Whoever had thought they'll ever perform that song in Singapore. Well, I enjoyed the concert but the security was damn tight there. During their performance of Bring It On Down, some sicko shine his touch light at me, asking for the tickets... Asshole. Really, like what the hell. When Liam sung Wonderwall, the crowd went super crazy. You should have seen them, everyone knew the words to the whole song..! The songs which I think that they should have performed was The Hindu Times, Listen Up & Stand By Me. Other than Wonderwall, Lyla, Morning Glory, Acquiesce, Champagne Supernova, Don't Look Back In Anger & Rock 'N' Roll Star got the crowd singing like mad. The last song they did was My Generation, originally done by The Who. That song, had to be my most favourite for the night. Their concert, was so fucking awesome..!

The setlist:

1. Fuckin' In The Bushes (intro music)
2. Turn Up The Sun
3. Lyla
4. Bring It On Down
5. Morning Glory
6. Cigarettes & Alcohol
7. The Importance of Being Idle

Trivia:

-The band didn't actually take the stage until about 8:35 or so. When the 'Fuckin' in the Bushes' intro music played I thought I was going to die, the vibrations were so loud.
-Hearing 9000 other people sing 'Heeyyy Lyla' & singing along to words of 'Wonderwall' is fucking amazing.
- No songs from either the Be Here Now album or the Standing on the Shoulder of Giants album and only one from Heathen Chemistry ('Songbird').
-Liam changed one line of 'Cigarettes and Alcohol' to 'Cigarettes and Singapore'.
-The band didn't interact very much with the crowd. Noel didn't speak except to introduce songs; Liam did mention how they were labelled as cowards the last time when they cancelled the 2002 concert before launching into 'Live Forever'.
-Apparently some idiot screamed 'Sally can't wait anymore' impatiently waiting for 'Don't Look Back In Anger'.
-Said rendition of 'Don't Look Back In Anger' was generally top-notch, with everyone singing along.
-A girl got pulled up onstage during the finale 'My Generation' cover. She got a kiss from Liam, and was onstage for about a good three minutes with his tambourine and a Union Jack someone threw onstage.

Here are some pictures that I manage to take during the concert...

Love Is A Burning Thing

Howdy people! I watched the movie Walk the Line on Monday... It was a really good movie. Acting is brilliant, songs were great & the people were beautiful.LOL! Anyway, the movie is about the life of Johnny Cash. I'm not good at summarising movies. So here's the synopsis...

In 1955, a tough, skinny guitar-slinger who called himself J.R. Cash walked into the soon-to-be-famous Sun Studios in Memphis. It was a moment that would have an indelible effect on American culture. With his driving freight-train chords, steel-eyed intensity and a voice as deep and black as night, Cash sang blistering songs of heartache and survival that were gutsy, full of real life and unlike anything heard before. That day kicked off the electrifying early career of Johnny Cash (Joaquin Phoenix). As he pioneered a fiercely original sound that blazed a trail for rock, country, punk, folk and rap stars to come, Cash began a rough-and-tumble journey of personal transformation. In the most volatile period of his life, he evolved from a self-destructive pop star into the iconic "Man in Black" -- facing down his demons, fighting for the love that would raise him up, and learning how to walk the razor-thin line between destruction and redemption. As his music changed the world, Cash's own world was rocked by the woman who became the love of his life: June Carter (Reese Witherspoon).

I give the movie 3 & half stars out of 5... Well, I'd recommend the movie to everyone. Especially those who fancy country music.

I Love You Too!

Hey there, it's already been like 2 months since my last update. 2006 has been going quite alright for me. I've been doing fine all this while. Yesterday, I watched the Grammy Awards & was really happy that U2 won all 5 awards that they were nominated for.

City of Blinding Lights - Best Rock Song

Sometimes You Can't Make It On Your Own - Best Vocal Rock Performance & Best Song Of The Year

How To Dismantle An Atomic Bomb - Best Rock Album & Album Of The Year

I didn't really enjoyed the show. Most of the performances were quite a bore. The only performances that I liked were U2's Vertigo , One with Mary J Blige & Paul McCartney's Helter Skelter. The worst part of the show was when Kanye West acceptance speech. He said that he wasn't expecting the award but he ended up taking out a paper which says, 'Thank You List'. What the hell?! I really hate him. Lastly, I'm really glad that Mariah Carey only won 3 awards out of 8 that she was nominated for. Sorry you guys, but I just don't like her. All her songs from her album, The Emancipation Of Mimi sounds alike & it never did appeal to me at all.

Well, here are some of the pictures of U2 at yesterday's Grammy Awards held at the Staples Centre.

Holidays...

2005-11-23T16:32:00.000+08:00

Hello..! So it's been like three week since the hollidays started. Fast isn't it? I've been lazying around at home and going out to Orchard or City Hall with friends.I'm trying to think of things to write... So recently, Mu Zhen and me entered this best of friends competition and we managed to get in the top 30. I was quite glad but I did not know what is in store for us. Well, last week on Monday they called us up and told us that we were in the top 30 and had to go for a photoshoot. So the both of us went to Jurong IMM on Friday. The whole thing didn't take long. I bet the journey there was even longer. I was damn nervous man! But then I realize that it was really nothing. After that, the both of us went to her house. I spent the whole afternoon there... I went home at around 8.30pm. On Saturday, I watched the Europe Music Awards on MTV. It was really nice... Well, better than last year. All the performances were good, especially Robbie William's Tripping. The next day, my parents and me went 'jalan raya'. We went to my sister's house and then to 2 other houses from my brother in law's side. Nothing really happened on Monday... Yesterday, I requested for two songs on WKRZ and they played it. I was so happy! Got kinda crazy after that. Haha! The first one was played around 10.55pm, it was Mercury & Solace by BT (Brian Transeau). That was an sms request. Actually I never heard that one played on radio before. The DJ's keep playing Somnambulist... Well, after around 10 minutes, I managed to call in and requested for Paul Van Dyk's Nothing But You. I got Mu Zhen to tune in... She actually called in too and requested for a Clay Aiken song. But they didn't play it :-( I'm going to try and call in again later at around 11pm. I love the feeling when the DJ's on the radio actually play my song request. Nothing beats that... Later at around 11.30pm, there's a repeat of American Music Awards. I didn't get to watch it just now, I'm going to watch it later. I'll update soon, happy holidays people! :-)

Harry Potter & The Goblet Of Fire

2005-11-17T22:05:00.000+08:00

Hey! So I watched Harry Potter & The Goblet Of Fire just now. One of my friends Maizurah paid for the tickets. It was really nice of her. So there were the 3 of us Maizurah, Farah & me. The movie wasn't that great but it is watchable. I almost fell asleep for the first 20 minutes or so of the movie. It's kinda boring for me. I really watched the movie when Potter and the rest of the people did their second task. Well,my favourite part of the movie is when they did their last task, the part where Voldemort appears! At some graveyard... That scene was damn short! Anyway, I'll rate the movie 3 stars out of 5.

Rockstar: INXS Finale

2005-09-22T19:47:00.000+08:00

It's now time for MiG, Marty and J.D. to show just how good they've become. Tonight's performances are in two parts. First, the three Rockers will perform the song they chose earlier this week -- they could pick from any song performed during the season. INXS will then say goodbye to one of them based on his performance. Next, the two remaining Rockers will each sing an INXS song with INXS backing them up, but this time one of them will be told that he is the right singer for INXS.

MiG takes the stage first. He chose Bohemian Rhapsody by Queen. He let Suzie perform it the first time around, because he wanted to show INXS that he's moved on from his theatrical past. Now, he just wants to sing it. It's a song he's had a great deal of experience singing, and although his vocal is spot-on, it feels a little too practiced.

J.D. is up next. He's the only Rocker who took a chance, singing a song he's never sung before. The Rolling Stones' "You Can't Always Get What You Want" defines his whole experience on "Rock Star:INXS." It's an intense yet controlled performance -- and he brings the crowd to its feet.

Marty closes out the first round of performances with a reprise of Pink Floyd's "Wish You Were Here." His first performance on "Rock Star:INXS," he says, was so wild, he looked like he plugged his finger into a socket. INXS has taught him to rein in his intensity and that less is more. This performance of "Wish You Were Here" shows off his newfound restraint.

When INXS return from their deliberations, Tim announces that the Rocker who is not right for their band is . . . MiG! Dave is as surprised as anyone and tells MiG that it's been "a joy" to watch him perform. He's a "born entertainer" who "lights up every room" he enters. MiG thanks the band in return, telling them that his time on "Rock Star:INXS" has been the most wonderful experience of his professional life.

With only two Rockers left, the rules have changed. Tim tells Marty and J.D. that before, INXS loved watching them perform with the House Band. But the real test is how they perform with INXS. So Tim and the rest of INXS take the stage to back up J.D. and Marty.

Marty gets to sing with INXS first. They want to hear how he does on "Don't Change." Marty does well, striking dramatic poses as he brings an intense yearning to a vocally challenging song. J.D. follows, performing "What You Need." He's electrifying, interacting with both the band and audience, simultaneously vulnerable and demanding. It's hard to believe that he's the same performer who ended up in the bottom three on the first week of the show.

Before INXS makes the announcement everyone's been waiting for, Tim has a few things he wants to say. One way or another, there will be a brand-new INXS. "Tonight we become a complete band again." Tim tells the final two they have been a pleasure to work with, but only one can front INXS. J.D., he says, is a great singer -- one you can't take your eyes off. Marty, Tim says, has also adapted and improved -- he's riveting on stage. But it's J.D. who is the right singer for INXS.

J.D. falls to his knees when he hears his name; when he looks up, his cheeks are stained with tears. Marty looks stunned. J.D. got the gig -- he's the "Rock Star" -- but Marty isn't walking away empty handed. Tim asks if he'd consider opening up for INXS on their world tour, and Dave offers to play guitar when Marty records an album.

To end this season, the new INXS takes the stage for the first time and performs their new single, "Easy, Easy." J.D. fits right in with his new bandmates, giving the new song a slinky, sexy vocal.

All proceeds from the Telethon will go to The American Red Cross and The Salvation Army. Other artists appearing include Sheryl Crow, Ellen Degeneres, Chris Rock, Rod Stewart, Cameron Diaz, Alicia Keys, Randy Newman and Neil Young, and many many more...

BT's Stealth Score Fires Direct Hit

2005-09-05T17:51:00.000+08:00

Versatile composer and electronica musician BT (Brian Transeau) has reteamed with director Rob Cohen on Stealth, 2005's summer blockbuster from Columbia Pictures. Jamie Foxx, Josh Lucas and Jessica Biel star in the epic action thriller about a squadron of elite pilots out to neutralize an out of control drone fighter jet equipped with artificial intelligence. The score will set the tone for this summer's most vivid and intense action sequences. BT created an architecture of modernist orchestral music to fuel Stealth's thrill of speed, excitement of chase and ferocity of combat.

Often composing in algorithmic codes and building instruments using a computer program to make cutting-edge treatments, BT combined both classical orchestral music with his signature electronica sound. "The exciting thing is getting to incorporate some of this musical technology," he says, "You have these real polarities, these big pieces of orchestral music versus this crazy punk-rock sounding code. I'm getting to cover a lot of musical ground, it's great." The score gives him an opportunity to reach into his diverse musical genius; although he is best known as a preeminent electronica artist and producer, on Stealth, he conducted an orchestra of 100 musicians. He also cowrote, produced and performed with icon David Bowie on the soundtrack cut "(She Can) Do That."

World Music Awards

2005-09-04T17:47:00.000+08:00

U2 was named 'Best Selling Rock Artist' at the World Music Awards in Hollywood on Wednesday night.

At the same ceremony, The Killers, who recently supported U2 on some of their European stadium dates, were named Best New Group.

U2, who have been on a break before the third leg of Vertigo '05 kicks off in less than a fortnight, were not at the ceremony. Manager Paul McGuinness has said that sales of How To Dismantle An Atomic Bomb, which went to No.1 in 32 countries, indicate it could eventually become the band's best-selling record.

The World Music Awards are based on record sales, certified by the International Federation of the Phonographic Industry.

Rockstar: INXS Update II

2005-09-02T22:00:00.000+08:00

On the performance show, everyone blew the house down. Marty's version of Wish You Were Here by Pink Floyd moved the audience. The whole show ended with Suzie McNeil's peformance of Bohemian Rhapsody by Queen. This week, the encore goes to Suzie for her incredible performance of Queen's "Bohemian Rhapsody". Suzie gets to choose another Rocker to be her "opening act" by also performing an encore. She chooses Marty to perform Pink Floyd's "Wish You Were Here". Anyway, here's a list of the remaining contestants and the songs that they had performed on the performance show.

JD Fortune- Suspicious Minds by Elvis Presley
Jordis Unga- Imagine by John Lennon
Marty Casey- Wish You Were Here by Pink Floyd
MiG Ayesa- Live and Let Die by Paul McCartney
Suzie McNeil- Bohemian Rhapsody by Queen
Ty Taylor- You Can't Always Get What You Want by The Rolling Stones

JD, Jordis & Ty ended up in the bottom 3. In the end, Ty Taylor was eliminated.

Rockstar: INXS Update I

2005-08-28T19:49:00.000+08:00

So here's what happened this week. MiG & Deanna performed they own original songs that they had wrote in just several hours. Suzie stage dived as soon as she finished singing Start Me Up by The Rolling Stone. She totally rocked the whole place. Jordis sang Dream On by Aerosmith horribly but nobody can blame her for that. Certain notes from that song are hard to reach but I do give her credit for choosing a song that is difficult to sing. It was a really a risky move to choose an Aerosmith song. Anyway, here's a list of the remaining contestants and the songs that they had performed on the performance show.

Deanna Johnson- My Truth by Deanna Johnson & Ty Taylor
JD Fortune- Cold As Ice by Foreigner
Jordis Unga- Dream On by Aerosmith
Marty Casey- I Alone by Live
MiG Ayesa- Do Or Die by MiG Ayesa
Suzie McNeil- Start Me Up by The Rolling Stones
Ty Taylor- Proud Mary by Creedence Clearwater Revival

Suzie made a hat which says, "Queen Of The Bottom 3". She made that hat because she had been in the bottom 3 several times. Dave said that he would wear the hat if Suzie was in the bottom 3 that night. Luckily for Dave, he didn't have to wear that hat. Marty, Deanna & Ty ended up in the bottom 3. In the end, Deanna was eliminated.

Awesome Day..!

2005-08-25T18:05:00.000+08:00

Today, was really good day. But things, didn't go well during recess... There was some kind of misunderstanding among my friends. I hate it when this happens. I mean... who doesn't right? Well anyway, things after recess went smoothly. During art lesson, Mrs Anne Chan wasn't around and we were told to enlarge, draw then shade the picture given to each of us. I was listening to Power 98 and somehow, I decided to send a dedication to Shereen. The both of us heard the deciation and we were both really happy. After school, I watched Charlie & The Chocolate Factory again with the secondary two students. Check out my previous post named, "Chocolate...Sweet!" to view some photos from the movie. I was glad that I manage to get a ticket. I had fun and enjoyed myself alot..! As for now, I can't wait to watch Rockstar: INXS later. I'll update soon of what had happened this week on the show.

Rockstar: INXS

2005-08-23T16:44:00.000+08:00

I decided to tell you people a little bit about the show Rockstar:INXS hosted by Dave Navarro & Brooke Burke. I know it's a little too late because it's already the 7th week but I'm still going to update you anyway. Well, the show started out with 15 contestants and last week, there were only 8 contestants left. This week, the contestants were given songs especially chosen for them by INXS. Usually, they were allowed to choose from a list of songs but it was different on that day. Here's the list of the remaining contestants and the songs that they performed on the performance show.

Deanna Johnson- I Can't Make You Love Me by Bonnie Raitt
Jessica- Torn by Natalie Imbruglia
JD Fortune- As Tears Go By by The Rolling Stones
Jordis Unga- Knocking On Heaven's Door by Bob Dylan
Marty Casey- Hit Me Baby One More Time by Britney Spears
MiG Ayesa- Baby I Love Your Way by Peter Frampton
Suzie McNeil- Bring It On Home To Me by Sam Cooke
Ty Taylor- Maggie May by Rod Steward

MiG's performance was spectacular..! He also did an encore on the elimination show as he got the highest votes for the week. MiG invited Jordis & Marty to sing with him during his encore. In the end, Jessica was eliminated from the show that night.

Start Of The Week

2005-08-22T16:55:00.000+08:00

So it's the beginning to the week and I'm starting to feel the pressure. Yeah... Actually I can't for this week to end because there is 3 tests this week. Hopefully either one of these is being cancelled like today. There was supposed to be Social Studies test today but fortunately, Miss Ee wasn't around and it was postponed. I was so glad that it was postponed as I didn't even even studied for the test. Anyway, Today was a really fun day. I spent my time listening to music most of the time in school it was great..! After school, I got a call from MTV saying that I won a cap or something... I not that sure. Well, that's all for today.

My Weekend...

2005-08-21T14:19:00.000+08:00

Yesterday was a really fun day. I was at the Hereen with my sister at around 2pm. At that time, Power 98 was having the air guitar contest. The winner will get to see the Rockstar:INXS finals in L.A. We just hanged around there and looked at other contestants do their thing. During the breaks, Soo Wei & Maggie asked questions to the audience so that they too could win prizes. My sister and me won a Rockstar:INXS leather wristband each. The question that I got to answer was to Name any INXS song and my answer was New Sensation. As for my sister, they asked her from which band was Michael Hutchence from? Obviously, the answer to that is INXS. After that, we went to Orchard Cineleisure to have our lunch at KFC. We headed to Chinatown as soon as we finished. My sister showed me some shops which sell CDs at a cheaper price than those from HMV or Music Junction. By the time we reached home, it was around 6pm. Yesterday is without doubt one of the best days this week. Anyway, today kind of just started for me. In the morning, I had to go to religious class and by the time I got home, I ate my lunch and here I am... Online and updating my blog. :-)

I didn't manage to go online yesterday because I was so damn tired. I'll update you about yesterday. So early in the morning when the robotics team was in the bus, the drive tuned in to Power 98 and everyone listened to the radio. I smsed Power 98 to say a shoutout but then Maggie and Joe called me back, they put me on air and we talked about Micromouse. They wished us luck and I was really happy. Anyway, the day passed quite fast because we were at Great World City again. Our school managed to win the Cutest Mouse Competition which we didn't expect & The overall champion for division 2. As for today, nothing much happened. It was a boring day. But I am glad that the weekend is already here.

Micromouse Competition

2005-08-17T16:58:00.000+08:00

Today was really fun, but tiring as well. Anyway, my team did not get through the competition. Something went wrong...Really wrong. Well, our micromouse didn't manage to find the goal... So therefore, we didn't manage to do a fastrun. We only had like 6 minutes and the robot crashed 5 times. It was terrible... We went home earlier than expected. One hour earlier to be exact. That is probably the reason why I managed to go online and post this. As for tomorrow, I won't be in school as well, I'll be at Great World City again. We'll be supporting the lucky ones who actually made into the finals. If I am not wrong, it's Isaac's team. We'll be in the cutest mouse competition. I have doubts about winning that one. I'll write in my next post how it went.

Busy week

2005-08-16T18:48:00.000+08:00

I've been really tired lately and it's not even mid week... I've been coming home late for this couple of days because of the Micromouse competition. Thank God it's only for this week. As for tomorrow, I don't have to go for lessons as the competition is during school hours. Great eh? But I'm not really looking forward to it because I'd rather be in school. I don't really want to miss any lessons as I find it really hard to catch up. Anyway,the competition will be held at Great World City. We never had a competition there before so tomorrow will be our first. The last competition was at Funan the IT Mall... I met some new friends there and it was kind of fun...It'll be quite some time before you'll see my next post. So that's that. :-)

Chocolate. Sweet..!

I watched Charlie & The Chocolate Factory just now at Orchard Cineleisure. If you already read the book, the movie might disappoint you. But if you're a Johnny Depp fan like me, the movie would be a blast for you. I rate this movie 3 & a half out of 5 chocolate bars. This movie is recommended for all...

No School

2005-08-10T16:36:00.000+08:00

Today's a very boring day. I didn't do anything much. The only thing I did was that I listened to the radio and also surfed the net. Just now on WKRZ, they played Mercury & Solace by BT (Brian Transeau) at around 1pm. That was the 1st time I heard that song on the radio. Well, I'm not going to write much today because nothing really happened as there's no school... Maybe I'll write more tomorrow depending on how free I am. I still got ART homework that I have not completed yet. I'll start working on it later. :-)

National Day

2005-08-09T16:52:00.000+08:00

Today's Singapore's 40th Birthday.Happy Birthday Singapore..! Anyway, I've been listening to the radio since I woke up. The first song I heard on Power 98 today was Beautiful Day by U2. I was really happy and thought to myself, what a way to start my day... But then, the rest of the day sucks! There's nothing good on TV. I expected somthing good... like some award show or movie. For the first time in my life, I didn't feel like watching the National Day Parade on televsion. I feel that alot of the acts or whatever they call it is just going to repeat itself...It's been like that for a several years already. The television programmes for tonight are damn boring... Maybe I'll stay online till late night. But I'm too sure whether that will happen.

Eve Of National Day

2005-08-08T20:03:00.000+08:00

Hey there, I finally decided to write a little bit about myself here. Somehow, I figured that my blog wouldn't be much of a blog if I don't write about myself or my life. Today, is the eve of National Day. I didn't really enjoyed this day because I was feeling rather sick. Today's celebrations were rather boring. My school spent the morning with Tampines Primary. Only a handful of students were singing the National Anthem and said the pledge. Tomorrow's National Day for God's sake..! Why choose today to be like this! Well anyway, the market day went well... I guess. I wasn't involved with anything at all... All I did today was that I walked around the stalls with Mu Zhen & Farah. It was quite fun... Hmmm.. nah, it was rather boring & tiring but I did enjoy their company. After I left school, Maizurah and me went to KFC and had our breakfast... or was it lunch? I'm not too sure. It took us a while to figure out where to eat... I think we took about 45 minutes to decide where to eat. After that, we went to Challenger to see some Spyware softwares & also speakers... The both of us went straight home after that. I slept the whole afternoon and had been online since 5pm.

Yesterday, I watched Stealth with Farah. The movie was filled with action sequences which was very breath taking. The action scenes was really cool and the soundtrack is awesome..!

Fantastic 4

2005-07-13T17:02:00.000+08:00

I watched Fantastic 4 yesterday with Farah. The movie isn't as fantastic as I thought but it was not that bad either. The only reason I watched the movie was because of Julian McMahon (Victor Von Doom). He looks brilliant! I rate this movie 3 and half out of 5. Recommended for everyone...
