AWAKENING!

SWITCHFOOT WAS AWESOME!

They totally rocked la! Fantastic performers okay! I was super hyped! - screaming and jumping and singing along non-stop!! And the crowd was very energetic as well, so it added to the whole hype (maybe too energetic for some. Poor Jing and Stephanie, waha). I think Switchfoot maybe didn't really expect such crazy reception in Malaysia? Heh.

A bit sad they didn't sing my mostest favouritest song, but it's okay - the whole performance more than made up for it. I can remember the setlist, though not in perfect order (heh, shy). The performances that stood out for me (meaning personal preference la ya) were The Awakening (Yeaaaa-eeeaahhhhhhhh~!), Lonely Nation, We Are One Tonight, Gone, On Fire, Meant To Live, Dare You To Move... Okay why am I even making this list? I'll prolly just go on til I reach the full list!

They even did a bit of their version of Beyonce's Crazy in Love before launching into Gone. When the music started playing, my reaction was kinda "Oh c'mon! Seriously?!". (Switchfoot's is a pretty good cover though. Kinda better than Snow Patrol's cover IMO). And I just had to burst out laughing when Jon Foreman snuck in an "ella ella" in the song. He was super energetic throughout the concert, it was awesome!!

(Ok yes I know I'm not using a very wide range of vocab in this post but what the hey!)

Eh I wanna relive the experience again la!

bus crash no more

I know this may come as a little late, it's regarding that Slim River Bus Crash that happened the other day. The Star's report here on one of the three victims - Lee Nian Ning.

The bus driver had 13 summonses. THIRTEEN. FREAKING. SUMMONSES.

What the heck was he doing behind the wheel, with so many people's lives in his hands?! Wasn't there some hoo-ha over reckless bus drivers a while back?? Whatever happened to looking into the matter and resolving the issue?!

This is ridiculous. Yes I know accidents happen, but it's not all the time they're unavoidable. That driver shouldn't have been allowed to drive in the first place - that would probably have made a difference.

Reading the report on Lee Nian Ning the other day saddened me, and it also hit me that it could have been any of my friends who travel to and fro from uni to their hometowns by bus quite often. *knock on wood*

Yet the whole reckless bus drivers issue doesn't seem to be getting anywhere near dibendung. A petition has been set up - buscrashnomore, so do go over and have a look. Something has to be done, we need to make this heard.

i'm still alive la

Okay, so I haven't updated in a bit. Just realised this would actually be my first post for year 2008. Awesome. Look, I managed to squeeze this in right before February, which I feel is really impressive! *cough* Well, what can I say la. Recent events in my life have been exceptionally captivating, so much so that I'm always too excited to blog about them! cannto type proeprly you know!

... Fine, it's just that whenever I blogged, all that came out of me were...
incomplete half-posts. Mostly due to the whole pointless-ness of it all, and definitely due to laziness. So yes, I have quite a number of drafts festering in my blogger account.

Totally unrelated, my blog does look kinda retarded on mozilla. Will change that when I have time. Nevermind la still can read right.

If you must know how I'm doing, I'll tell you right here right now then. I'm quite fine, I'm very busy, I'm a little emo, I'm rather irritable, I'm bloody procrastinating, I'm always late, I'm occasionally nice, I'm often irresponsible, I'm barely untroubled, I'm sometimes bitchy, I'm really confused, I'm kinda guilty, I'm extremely frenzied, I'm somewhat lost. I'm also super cute.

That, and I'm totally hyped up over Switchfoot!

Yes, Switchfoot!


Well, updating for the sake of updating. In staccato-like sentences some more. Happy or not?

Past two weeks having exams. Tomorrow last day. Been meeting up with friends whenever I can. Been so busy I haven't stepped in the office for two full weeks. CNY hols my ass, assignments damn a lot, I'm gonna be busy as fuck. And when I say "a lot", I do mean a lot. This sem's more demanding than previous sems, somehow. But I'm becoming lazier, and most of the time I can't really be bothered to comb through every single detail of every damn assigment. Plus gotta prepare for internship which I'll be doing soon enough. I haven't even written up a decent resume wey. Champion procrastinator. Also, where to do internship? What if I'm not accepted omg cannot. Oooh btw Isaac very cute and babbling a lot now. =) Also very destructive. -_-"

... I wanna meet up with some before they fly off again. =(

Ta for now =)

aw, no...

this is kinda sad. i've occasionally dropped by wehategoodmusic after chancing upon the website a couple of months ago when i googled for anamanaguchi.

there is (ok, was) an extensive list and posts on really good bands and artistes, of which i obviously didn't have the time to properly explore all of them. i usually checked out a band here or an artiste there after browsing through some posts when i visit the site intermittently. of course, there will be so many more to explore, but i figured, alright, don't overload! make a mental note, drop by the site now and then for updates.

so basically yeah, i'm really new at the site, and still very much of a noob when it comes to music. but it doesn't make me any less sad that the site's been ended. but i respect the decision, of course. it's obvious that a lot of hard work has been put into the site, and the guy needs a break.

this year, i've been given a few catalysts to jump-start and get my music-discovery journey along, this site being one of them. before i really sound like some sappy hallmark tribute, i'll just end this post...

i hate good music too. >=)

mmm, Christmas.


[edit]: i know i'm at it again when i start humming along to jolin TSAI'S songs. gosh, of all singers. beh tahan.

briefly

was in relatively good mood... still am, but just uh, slightly dampened by this one little thing.

still, was nice seeing almost everyone again. so i'd say my good mood isn't totally offset with that one stupid thing.

on a slightly different note, i'm doing it again -_-" the last time it happened, it did not turn out well.

*feigns ignorance, as ignorance is bliss*
