finally! i have caught up with one piece's latest episodes! muahahah

half an hour more to the end of AB213 lecture. My lecturer is quite funny. HAHA

anyway i ate too much subway and am feeling bloated now. need to walk about!

is downloading iTunes. i freaking suaku. didn't know that to operate apple products i need itunes. BLEAHX

Just received a little jab of life. cuz xiaohan finally replied...

met yy and daniel for lunch. was initially at cant A but decided to switch to cant 4 cuz A was just TOOO DAMN CROWDED. yeah paid school bills then went to jookoon with daniel to see see and look look before yy and swee leong joined us on the train at pioneer.

then hanged out with vs peeps and yarden to celebrate yarden's birthday. what a weird name. yarden. HAHA!! he told me that it's an indian name or something like that! haahh

alright waited at ob for like 2 hours before realising that zach FORGOT about me and they were all in room h singing while i was alone in room d. okay ob isn't very big but still...:P

alright forget about that. zach then brought us to the secret garden at bugis to have our dinner. food was not too bad la, though some of us did complain of shoe smell and old people smell in the food.
my smoked salmon sandwich

after that we went to iluma's arcade and had a scare at the 360degree cinema while watching a 'horror' 3D movie. it was really quite interesting seeing headless zombies walk to you from all directions. HAHA!
terence with his shades looking very similar to the 3D one. HAHA


then off to miss clarity cafe where sherlyn and wenhao joined us for late supper. life is really harsh and cruel. we just have to lan lan suck thumb and take everything in our stride. most importantly, just do what you love and love what you do.

using the comp terminal at lee wee nam library. i am still amazed at how much i have changed from being a library-goer to being a non-library-goer. HAHA

anyway lunch with daniel and yy at canteen 4 was fun. HAHA

hahah my spirits sorta went this way after hearing what my mom said to me. I know she wants to help by saying that my compositions were too draggy and flat and my singing's been getting worse, esp my passagios and falsetto, but i can't help but feel bad about myself. HAHAHA this happened after i received junyang's email about writing a song for 郭靜 and started humming and singing... :P

anyway saw a funny article on THE BUSINESS TIMES (?!?!?!). here it goes
"For those who champion Singlish, can they picture the image of a translator standing next to her (Ris Low) in the Miss World finals, if Ms Low had made it that far."
the moment i started imagining, okay i can't. nvm. i am still very disturbed by her indifference towards her act of dishonesty. JUST 认错 lah!

yay finally it's DONE!!!! PHEWs.

life is fair - if i do more, i will learn more.

looking forward to junyang's and xiaohan's replies!

caught 菲哥's 综艺大哥大 and ate TWO flossssss buns. MUAHAHAH. alright back to AB213 project. Melvin didn't reply. i tried all means of contacting him. i am just short of looking him up at his house.

wanted to blog from teban gardens just now cuz for some reason i managed to hook on to a connection, hahah but oh well the signal was too weak. BLAh.

anyway i love the crowd at teban gardens. there were alot of foreign workers but they looked like they enjoyed my performance. HAHA managed to meet the emcee of the night, who happened to be the stage manager when i was performing with sherlyn at yew tee in july. i introduced myself as 'NETs' and then she became 'Credit'. HAHA okay it's quite funny.

the stage. look at the crowd! haha macham getai!


finally. mission accomplished! this is thick-skinned nat.


wanna thank sherlyn for giving us this chance to perform! i am really looking forward to more performances!

half-way through the AB213 project. okay tried calling melvin but he didn't pick up my call...so i guess this calls for an ultimatum if i dun see anything from him in my email by the time i reach home tonight. ><

good morning!

refering to melvin's post on his quarter-life crisis (okay i know i am slow again...HAHA) - life is, once again, doing what u love. it's not about getting through the singapore education system, get a degree, then a good job, and finally get married, have kids and grandkids, and die. it's about loving what u do and doing what u love!

who says you can't earn your bread and butter doing art and music? (and tourism! hahah). but of cuz. watching animes won't get you very far. esp with all the funny crap that the storywriters came out with! hahah. i love one piece.

and so i am going to start work on the ab213 lit review and compile the written report. seeya at noon. oh yes. i have to bug the other melvin to give me his lit review. if not i am going to baotoh him!!!! ;X

heading to teban gardens in the evening for the final mid-autumn festival performance at the heartlands!

700

will work towards the bigger stage!

miaoru called me after her perf at queenstown and complained that the crowd was so .______. HAHAH yeah that's when i told her that sometimes we have to pretend hat they are high and we have to 自high. the performance at 888 plaza was more comforting than yesterday's because even though it was raining quite heavily today, the crowd was warmer, and of cuz i felt happier singing for them.

waiting for the bus along upp east coast road to go for choir prac.


erm. bored. my green tee + neckie + jacket.


AUNTY's POPIAH from beer garden! still the best popiah i have ever eaten!


performance area at 888 plaza.




oh yeah and just one final pic which i haven't been able to post since quite sometime ago.
beware! it's controversial! =X

armed with one bottle of water and one bottle of pi-pa-gao water. MUAHAHAHA

having a hook in your song probably doesn't mean that it needs to hit a certain high note, or be especially tough to sing, and it also doesn't mean that it should JUST have a nice tune.

it has to be memorable, easy to groove with, and dressed with appropriate, touching lyrics.

...

still coughing. =X

nathaniel is only starting to live.

after so much doubt and uncertainty all these while, it's still jj that inspires me the most. he just made me want to live a better life through words that weren't even directed at me. i wanna be like him.

pls continue to keep me inspired! jj and luffy! HAHA

searching for my one piece too!

DBSK - We Are

...
ありったけの夢をかき集め
捜し物を探しに行くのさ
ポケットのコイン、それと
you wanna be my Friend?
We are, We are on the cruise!　ウィーアー！
...

feels that he is the suaku-est of the suakus. HAHA but oh well. better late than never! :)

this is really hilarious.

rihanna's umbrella: hokkien-style

woohoo. 3rd post in a day!

haha erm. fajar's performance was not bad. i think the biggest takeaway was that the wonton mee over there is very nice! esp it's char siew. wah heavenly. too bad i was alone and had no one to share that mee with. HAHA

oh the perf was alright. not as good as i could have done because of sorethroat and stuff. BLAH BLAH BLAH. oh but the mc was kinda not up to standard leh. she was totally not proficient at all in her 2 languages. tsk tsk tsk. so she was using fish-market singlish and hokkien to talk. wth. HAHA luckily she didn't interview me that much if not i would have definitely spoken in singlish too. BLAH BLAH BLAH.

ok then went to amk to meet up with yy, daniel, andy, samuel and joel for dinner (??) hahah. yeah to celebrate yy's birthday. HAHA abit early la but that's the only timing available! hahah oh yy and daniel, esp yy, have really good memory. they can remember the class seating plan from sec 1 to sec 4. WTH! hahah

feels so good after the run! SHIOK. :)

woohoo. finally i have heard g-dragon's heartbreaker. oh damn nice! hahah oh yes 2pm's again and again's nice too. okay i am really slow. HAHA

bah. need to prepare for the performance at fajar shopping mall later. HAHAHA :P

oh yes. i forgot to blog about the tremor that i felt in the afternoon yesterday. KOWAIIIII neeeh!

ahahahah anyway here's ken hirai's song, hitomi wo tojite (justin jap sang this song on facebook. zai!)

Ken Hirai - 瞳をとじて

朝目覚める度に
君の抜け殻が横にいる
ぬくもりを感じた
いつもの背中が冷たい

苦笑いをやめて
重いカーテンを開けよう
眩しすぎる朝日
僕と毎日の追いかけっこだ

あの日 見せた泣き顔
涙照らす夕陽 肩のぬくもり
消し去ろうと願う度に
心が 体が 君を覚えている

Your love forever
瞳をとじて 君を描くよ
それだけでいい
たとえ季節が 僕の心を
置き去りにしても
