Yesterday and days before, Sun is cold and Rain is hot, but it's been that way for all my time.

Will I Ever Find?

I'm really glad I have the opportunity to take photos with people who I may not meet again in a very long time. For those I constantly meet, I hope we will continue to meet without exception, continually, perpetually forevermore. Yes, I mean you, you, you, you and all of yous who you know who you guys are.

The weekend was very well spent and a very memorable one indeed. Except for one thing: Good Charlotte, I went to your concert but you didn't show up in my band's performance (Heh!). That was Saturday. Sunday was really great too, attending my very last prom night, in Palace of The Golden Horses. This weekend can be considered my best weekend ever in my entire uni life. Just regret that the good times seem so short. I'm very grateful to Mr whatever your name is for creating a great device called the digital camera.

Frankly, we gave our best during our performance in the prom, but due to unforseen circumstances, we failed to deliver the best of our ability. Alright, alright, apart from that, everyone was someone special that night, and I'm sure all of us had a real great time during the event, and kudos everyone, the organizers, who made the event a success, and the beautiful people who made the night meaningful, and the food that brought us all together at our table. haha.

Lastly, thanks for the photos.

After Love


Monday was the gathering for us (marketing coursemates) I hope it won't be the last one, cos monday night felt great. We're like a damn big family and I hope we'll have something as crazy as last night again. Thanks, you guys make me feel like not graduating yet. Heheh. ありがとう.

I really had great fun, and I never felt so loose with you guys last night although much damage have been done to ourself physically and mentally.. haha. Karaoke till 3 am knowing that we have a listening test in the morning.. was so wrong, but felt so right. ;)

If there's a song on radio I could dedicate to you guys, it would be:
Hellogoodbye's Here in you Arms.

Its already Tuesday, listening test sucked, hehe. Oh, and thanks to the durian, it tasted good, and you have been great Kevin. And sorry for being a hard case to crack, my roomate, I too, try my best to be what I presume as a good roomate and housemate. We've had the ups and downs and I appreciate every single help you have given, and I apologize for all the unpleasant things I have caused. :D

This is the closest thing to crazy I have ever been, Feeling twenty-two, Acting Seventeen

Kudos MTV and DiGi for being the best this time around. Thanks for bringing Good Charlotte to Malaysia. As much as you, Joel Madden, love us, we love you as much as you do. Thanks for playing those old songs from your previous records.

Personal thanks to Justin Lee and Justyne Ang, for giving me a ticket, as last minute as can be, hehe but I really really really appreciate it.



Well, I must say, for some other things, I have them all very organized, but sometimes, I can be extremely impromptu (I didn't mean to lie in my personality test in order to get an interview for a job, I really think I plan well for things, :P). Well, for once in awhile, I stay in the good book of that guy called luck. You know, I've always been unlucky with things, but today luck feels happy and decided to cut me some slack.

By the time I reached ERL, I only had to wait 5 minutes for the train to come, and if I missed the cue, I would have to wait for half an hour. As soon as I reach South Lake City, I was in time to catch the LRT to bukit Jalil. Damn lucky, then walked there and met Justyne and didn't have to line up from the back. Haha. I didn't even thought of how to get home from the gig. Haha luckily the CF guys could give me a ride, luckily there was still place.. haha. I seriously didn't plan a single thing. Actually I didn't even know where the stadium was, but since I could spot a few ang moh kids holding the tickets, then I just sticked as closed to them as I could. But obvious as it can be, its visible after about 20m walk outside the LRT station and I even heard the ang moh said "its so obvious, only a fool can get lost" and I abit terasa la, being a Malaysian, and the ang moh knows the place better than I do.. but I only been there once before this la (my excuse)

There must be about 10 000 people.

The only shitty part was squeezing into a crowd and you can barely breathe inside. And that bald guy in front of me. Swear to god, I'd hammer him if he tries anything stupid like jumping and land on me and his kepala fucking busuk sial. I remember pushing him to the front while he was jumping (everytime any bands said "come on jump!" I sure stress cos the kid in front of me keeps knocking me). The local bands who performed were good, especially Lo who gave us a world class stellar performance. Estrange and OBS were ok, I'd say they sound good and their songs are nice but I don't know maybe the guitars were too trashy.

I'm really happy they played those old songs, bet all the kids there don't know good charlotte's old songs. Just felt that there are way too many secondary school students there. I think if dressed as a St John member or red crescent I'd get to the VIP stage easily. Oh no, I thought if I brought cans of Coke and sell it for RM4, I'd be rich. And those damn food sellers are damn rip off-ers. They freaking sold a 500ml mineral water for RM2! But no choice, smelled to much BOs and felt really dehydrated so I bought one.

I've been a fan like since form 4 (since their first record), so seeing them here in Malaysia tonight is really magical and something I've been dreaming of, this gig is really worth watching.
Good Charlotte has never sound so good! Cos they're playing in Malaysia.

This is the closest I can go.

I made you cry and that's my crime, I wish could just rewind.

Things I realize (in myself and other people) in my life so far

1. My mind not only wanders; sometimes it leaves completely.
2. There comes a time when you should stop expecting other people to make a big deal about your birthday.
3. People who want to share their religious views with you almost never want you to share yours with them.
4. A person who is nice to you, but rude to the waiter/cashier/officer, is not a nice person.
5. No matter what happens, somebody will find a way to take it too seriously.
6. My friends love me, anyway.
7. Although you think otherwise, in truth, nobody cares if you can't dance well. Just get up and dance.
8. Do not attempt to borrow money in your first date (you know who you are, idiot).
9. Someone tells me a joke and I said "LOL."
10. I got discouraged too many times. I'd rather live with a nice white lie than a stupid cruel truth.

Kudos my hero, leaving all behind, There goes my hero, He's ordinary

Happy 47th Birthday Mommy!
I love you soooo much!

My mom's birthday falls on the 12th of April. Every year she has more presents more than me. But, nevermind, I'm still happy cos I love my mom. For this year, we had her birthday dinner at a restaurant (not a fancy one) that serves really nice food. They appeared on Astro once and highly recommended by the King of Food (if im not wrong). They serve mainly Hainanese food. Oh they're in Kota Laksamana, go there if you have a chance. They have very bad service, but the food will change your mind :D. Its called Lao Di Fang (old place). Here are some photos.

The cake I bought for mom :D
Its a Tiramisu

Today I sat for my mid term for the subject Marketing Strategy. The fucking online notes was only 5 pages long, so my friends and I thought, there aren't really much to read, but the paper was freaking difficult. At one point of the exam, I really wish I could do this:


>.<

Then I'll be able to stop time so I could get the answer from the lecturer or wherever it is at.
Damn! (Luckily only 10 marks)

10 Things You Don't (or might not) Know About Me: 10 random facts about myself.
Tagged by Aya.

  • I am a blood donor and also an organ donor.

  • I'll never grow up, I am a grown ass kid.

  • I like to listen to really sad songs when I'm really sad.

  • I like to be in a room crowded with furnitures and pillows. I don't like big empty rooms.

  • I do not miss my gym sessions. If I do, I feel terribly guilty and will punish myself with unlimited sit ups and pushups. (someone please help me, seriously).

  • i get anxious/worried/scared too very often. I hate myself for being that way.

  • I am seriously poor, if you already don't know this.

  • I think god is a good painter, he paints a different sunset everyday.

  • I hate to see people better or happier than me. (sorry I'm not a selfless person).

  • I think acquaintances are like websites, you check em out the first time, you read more and click more but if you don't like em, you just don't go back to the website anymore.

  • I think feelings and money are the world's two most evil things. They are not good at all yet you want them really badly. At times, they betray blood too.


    Phew.
    I hate mondays but I hate Sunday nights even more.

Divalicious

Every weekend this April Channel [V] will be all about the Divas. Check out Beyonce, Kylie, Madonna, Nelly, Shakira, Gwen, all in April!! Check out Kylie's battle with cancer, Beyonce live in Wembley, Gwen's tour with No Doubt!




Apparently, Channel [V] is giving out another les Paul, used by Madonna in her video 'I Love New York'. The guitar is up for grabs so check out Saturday and Sundays on Channel [V]!

Words are flying out like endless rain into a paper cup but slither while they pass..

Last two weeks I attended a prom in The Legacy Hotel in Melaka. The event was organized by SPARC melaka, and Hannah Tan was invited to be the host of the event (I heard they paid her RM5000 + lodging + food). Overall it was good, serving the food to the table is the best way compared to buffet style (Aya you done a great job), and the settings and performances were really good (PG165 and Projecteight rock!). The theme was Lost masquarade which obviously means everyone should turn up with masks but when you're doing something so uncommon to the Malaysian culture, normally things go wrong a little..

There were really nice masks but also some really lost dudes and dudettes. Oh and credits to the guy who wore the V for Vendetta mask which was really really really really x100 cool. I didn't take pictures of him cos my camera ran out of batt half an hour after the event started.. I didn't check the batteries.. haha. Anyway there's a guy who's definitely trying to gain some attention by wearing a helmet as his mask (he took it out after 10 minutes cos he realized it was way too stuffy and he can't eat while wearing his 'mask'. Another guy wore ski goggle and last but not least, Aya (who happened to be the event director) got us some kamen rider masks. :D

Seriously, be grown up isn't half as fun as growing up.. but I guess we really need to move on in life.. Life is... very much like an RPG game. Like final fantasy, or maple story. I totally hate the latter, cos i feel left out. Anyway, i think life is like Video games because very much the same in life, we have a purpose. You try to improve your character's level and stats as good as can be so when you reach a certain level you'll be able to get the job or skills and abilities that you're aiming for. Just like in life, you have to go to school, get good results and go on to higher education levels and finally get a good job in life.. Just like in the games, the only difference is, if you fuck you real life up, you don't get to create a new life again.

Well im moving in to my Level 2 job already; Getting out of school and into work. Hopefully my stats and level are good enough to get me a good job in order to proceed further into the game of life.

This week has been a very tiring one packed with all sorts of activities (it isn't hectic, but very packed). I have been working in a career fair in campus in order to earn some money, that I'm keeping to get myself a good working shoes (don't wanna burden my parents to pay for my stuffs anymore, I guess I should be responsible for my own things already by now).

FMC will be performing for E-Nite in April, in Palace of The Golden Horses. Last night was our second last jamming session and although I think we sounded good, we haven't done our best yet. We recorded a couple of videos and will be posted shortly, but at the moment here's some camwhore moments.

It's Not Over

I've been quite interested in Chris Daughtry's band and their music recently. I think the song It's not over is really nice, and was surprised to know he actually joined AI (for your info I'm not really a big fan of AI, although this new season I really liked Brandon Rogers rendition for MJ's Rock With You). I thought he would ended up better in the Rockstar series. But he done good for himself and like they say, the rest is history. Apparently, they've designed an epiphone les paul standard (I've used the guitar before thanks to Lenard and Siuyook) to be given away by answering a few questions while watching them rock in Channel [V]'s singled out this month.

Daughtry

Its a nice guitar, but not so custom la :D
