Phantom of the opera

im kinda into the Phantom of the opera these days.. the theme song just keeps playin in my head. the Phantom's a great story, compelling and heartbreaking at the same time. just hearing the song makes me feel like im in the presence of someone great. im feelin pretty happy right now... it doesn't matter why =)


o im learning this song right now by jay chou




i think its nice

light in darkness

living in a turmoil is a very sad...but that's just how it is for me. My grades didn't pick up, the band didn't make it, my facial complexion's down in hell, my boss keeps up the pressure and i'm out of cash. the only thing going for me right now is my mom, basketball, my guitar and my close friends. whatever it is im still feeling like hell these few days. i didn't show it on my face, but that's the way it is. but i spotted a tiny light in these dark times. it's still far away, out of reach, but i would like to it. it makes me feel warm and light inside.

magnum opus pt1.

i wish a tornado will just appear in Singapore and destroy this tiny island. No, make that a series of tornadoes. One tornado for each region ( north, south, east, west ). Kill everyone of us and make this world a better place. Of course there will be resistance, but in my story everyone dies, except me. Then i will travel this land alone, my power unmatched and unrivaled in this desolate place. At this point it sounds like a scene from the movie I Am Legend. In my story, however, there's no zombie-like humans who couldn't go out to the sunlight or some shit like that. There's just me. everything on this tiny island is for me to control. the first thing i would do is go to town and get some new threads. since the mrt's down, i would have to walk...or find a bike or motorcycle, or if im lucky, a car. i would go to town. get some new threads. then i'll visit the Istana beside Plaza Singapura. Now that's something people don't get to see everyday. the inside of the istana. of course, the whole place is destroyed, but it doesn't matter. the front door stands strong against the wild wind. Opening the door, im welcomed with more ruble... and dead faces. people who had been trapped inside and buried under the ruble and debris. a woman's face attracted my attention. her face is not so much dead but alive. but she's dead alright. no breath, no pulse on her neck, nothing. but her face shines with vatility. i reached out to close her dead eyes.... to be cont'd.

earth-shatterin

due to my new line of work, im now seeing a few people in a different light. First and foremost kudos to my uncle. He's helped my family alot through hard times and due to recent events, he's gone up to top 10 on my list of favourite people. And my mom who recently showed that im actually a poor kid who have to beg for money weekly ( sigh ... but that's gonna change real soon ). A friend of mine said to me that F&B is a line of work where you gain alot of experience and meet alot of different types of people. I just nodded my head and gave a noncommittal 'ah', but i personally feel that experience, though different in every line of work, will be gained and different types of people would be met no matter what line of work you're in. Since it's been a long time since i posted, guess i'll make this quite a long one. Im now quite into japanese dramas due to the influence of my mom, and i kinda like 'em. One actress that leaves a deep impression on me is Maki Horikita. Call me a fanboy, but i like her. Here's a picture of her.

oh, and i found a sesame street cover by Me First And The Gimme Gimmes

And also phantom of the opera, also by mfatgg

bloody good stuff!

lovers' delima

as a guy who have gone through different phases of his life, i realised that having a girlfriend is really tough on people our age. Romantics may openly disagree with me here at this point by sayin love is all they want and ever need to carry them through their lives, but here's the real deal. the following is based on people whose age range between 16 - 24.


1) emotionally unstable


2) financially unstable ( it doesn't matter if you have a part time job or not, you'll still be short of dough )


3) mentally unstable ( mostly for guys, but there are a few chicks in this category )


all these instability will, though not all the time, lead to one thing : offspring. guys will rush their gfs for sex and dump them as soon as they got some. And then they'll tell their friends that they miss their ex. Weird huh?


btw, im still lookin for one right now. And it's for long-term, not just a two-week stand.

The BoogyMan

Since I was young and innocent, i view the boogyman as the scariest thing to walk the dark fantasy earth, beating the werewolves and ghosts to become #1. But as i grow older, maturity sets in like the high tide, and I know sooner or later, the Boogyman will no longer haunt me. So in spirit of that i wrote a little poem to commemorate his death in my fantasy world.



|| R.I.P The BoogeyMan ||

the BoogeyMan!

He's Dead

or so the folks said

everybody is safe

even the bats in that old cave

but even it's quiet and still

walking past the tomb

in the moonless night's chill

one will still feel

that murderous intent to kill

and if you train your ears

confirmed they will be, your fears

scratching and scraping

from down below

the splinter of wood

the crumbling of soil-ho!

soon you'll realize that

all this is just in your head

for the Boogeyman

Is Dead!


sigh... i feel like an old friend has gone very far away.

check this out...

for those of you who had seen my dp on msn ( obviously applies only to those on my list of contacts ), you would've seen a picture of my band. All four of us, standing side by side, looking like how we always do, juz standing at one side of the street and taking a picture, two actually. I've got nothing to do and just staring at it when a realization hit me. Just look at our clothes. Starting from the right, Kazu with a white shirt on. And then there's me, wearing a white t-shirt with some green stripes ( noticed anything? ). Then there's Kelvin, wearing a not-completely black t-shirt with some designs at the front which is white in colour. Last but not least, there's Fariq, wearing all black ( well, not entirely true, but he's got more black than the rest of ours ). It's like looking at an painter's palete who only wanna paint in black and white, with a mix of green. Pretty funky huh? Guess now you must be thinking you've just wasted your time reading this stuff. =x
