Two months without blogging?hmm i must be pretty busy.i'd love to think of it that way but sadly,none of thats true.Well maybe part of it is.This link could be a reason for such busy-ness..it was a holiday project that Thomas decided to try out and i guess its worth it..
MT's myspace account

or repulse's myspace

something more serious and fun.take your pick.Just because i can't help it,im gonna tell you that im dead broke after those two adventures.and the fact that my atm card was swallowed because i put it in a cash deposit machine(just a one-off blonde moment) isn't helping it.Kinda like "haha loser, gotcha" vibe i got from that bloody machine.But thank god my mom's willing to pay for premiere night tickets to beauty and the beast...

Somehow shows like that just last forever..gone were the golden 80's and 90's.Its just pretty boring now.And of course i can't seem to study with only a few more months to go to some exam people my age have to take.and for that, i blame the internet.g'night folks

On a roll...

Out of the house 14 hours in a row...not bathed,tired,saving money desperately to take my driving test without my parents knowledge(sigh),and even worse..hungry.It better be a worthwhile sacrifice....And it was.
The last 6 performances,RE-pulse has been on a roll getting good crowd reviews and more importantly..rockin' the house..!

Our return to Taylors college(the first of that string of 6 performances)
A 5000 bucks worth USA fender rented to me for free...the guy must have been doing drugs.
Blur pics due to an average man holding the camera..no offence dude..whoever you are)
During stand by me/beautiful girls.(Emsquared rockin' with us again)
At asia cafe to celebrate.

Of course it wasn't complete without our rhythm guitarist but missing this show is fine..NOT the massive one on may9th@the curve..in the middle of exams?yeah i know but a man's gotta do what a man's gotta do......

Like the way i COMPLETELY ACCIDENTALLY bent one of our schools cctv camera's with a football...post the video on ur blog kel....

And so....

So i've been busy..yeah...sadly by not doing the right things though.After watching American Idol 3 times in a week,i'd way thats busy enough."Exams are coming!" i keep telling myself but lol how in such a relaxed fashion ive approached monthly tests are incredible...and yeah for the first time,im worried:-(


Some very welcome distractions needed though..'Idol Gives back' was fantastic enough exept their suprisingly overly religious approach at the end..and of course,confirmation..:-) sum pics here..

my fav pic...

wont forget this bunch.:-)

Or this one..:-)

Me n Ethan..Blues band mates...

Alison

The boys N Sandra

More of them boys...

oops...busted :-)

Its a shame its all over now.Which means less than a month left till i'm a dead man once again...time to study!:-(

Power Weekends

Its been exactly a month since i last posted...if anything,its a reminder of how boring life's been for so long...well thats a lil' too harsh i'd say.Life hasn't been boring but fantastically normal instead. F1 fever is here again..which has made me realise 2 things-how much my ears have been damaged since 2001 when the noise of engines revving at 19000 rpm was 'deafening'..now its as normal as a day in the music studio.The second thing was how easy it is to make friends with foreigners as well as how much i miss the atmosphere of a sporting event.

Here's a few pics


At the mall area exhibition



mighty c63 AMG



Porsche Carrera Cup race



And I'm all kitted out for tomorrow's big race after I paid for the most insane purchase of merchandise..200 bucks for a t-shirt.But well considering a can of Coca Cola costs 5 ringgit ,I guess its perfectly normal...




On a softer note,cf camp was a blast.I guess i'm abit more sure of myself now after all that happened.It was pretty confidence inspiring,yet humbling at the same time.So was the experience of me flattening my mom's right tire after driving her car to giant and back...thats guilt..haha.Anyways,Forza Ferrari!

not quite there..

I wont lie bout it,thats a really nice jersey.But i guess 150 bucks went in vain as Taman Sea 's football team did what they do best..take part in a tournament.Well this year,the results obtained were a heck of alot better than the year before with more 'narrow' losses to the opposition.In spite of all that,i still had fun...and i still agree that the jersey was a waste of good money.Money I had to pay..haha..

Which kinda made me realise...isn't this just typical Malaysianism?..liking something so much to be crazy enough to put your heart and soul into it but yet not finding much success.I mean,our entertainment industry speaks for itself as well as our now-not-so-embarassing attempt at developing our own national car.Football is another joke altogether.There are a few who've made it though but then again,not in fields or events that wow the whole country.That being said I do hope we(those who can) vote right for the upcoming general elections..I mean parliament being dissolved so suddenly is a little distressing but i do think its for the best.So to whoever is gonna win it,i really hope you can stop some bad things from happening and practice what you preach.....Im still dying to migrate though..



So i'd like to end this today with my hopes for the 80th academy awards..Pretty big night its gonna be.I hope George Clooney walks away with best actor,Cate Blanchett for best actress,Javier Bardem for supporting actor,Saoirse Ronan for best supporting actress,Best music?"Atonement" for me.Best picture?"no country for old men"-no contest.On the technical side(sound,editing,art)Transformers,the bourne ultimatum..And yeah,I hope "Juno" wins something..either for the brilliant Ellen Page or for the writing in the original category..

And lets stop Malaysianism!

Stuck in First gear

Weeks of waking up at 6.45 in the morning have passed and the time for extra holidays,food,tv time and music has come...and is gonna be gone by Monday.As much of a bummer that is,I thank the lord SMK taman S.E.A took an extra day off(monday) to extend the chinese new year break thats been pretty fun incidently.The reason for my excitement?-The Grammy awards..of course the live telecast starts at like 9 or something in the morning but i'm definitely waking up.Albums released this year have been of a similar standard so its hard to predict whats gonna happen though i'd like to see Carrie Underwood or Taylor Swift walking away with one of the coveted golden trophys...

The breaks been good so far..keeping myself updated with the happenings in and around,TRYing to study-somehow being a form 5 student hasn't sunk in yet-..



Keeping in touch with things...

And stealing/fixing random things.That would make a good sign on my sister's bedroom door..seriously.

Other than that,its just been LOADS of late night tv with dave letterman (on which ive just fallen in love with Ellen Page) and writing WIMproject instrumentals thats been keeping my days occupied.And yes,the real life football "emo-ness" has gone away..hopefully for a long time....lets go taman sea!

Feeling it...

Just got (or rather booked) my 2008 ticket to the Petronas Malaysian Formula 1 GP.Its their tenth anniversary and knowing Malaysians they'll always wake up and do things properly when there's a special purpose seeing as the last award given out to the Sepang F1 race for 'outstanding organization' was in fact,10 years ago.Its sure to be a bang....
after i survive my mom's lecture about how i should spend time at home that day (which happens to be a christian feast day)..boring i know..thats why i havent told her..:-)
