UPDATES
haha. joking. but i did receive complaints for not updating my blog.
i jus lacked inspiration, but William sorta gave me the final push, with the release of his new album , ahem " INSPIRATION " which I condemn THROUGH and THROUGH.
It is ridiculous, an insult to music and also to us Asians. I mean, okay, let him on a few shows, haha, let them point at his bug-tooth and have a good laugh, i'm okay with vicious mockery. Whether he is ashamed or even conscious of how ridiculous the entire matter is, i'm fine, but an ALBUM? And my dream is to cut an album. How silly this dream sounds right now. Debut ALBUM? He does great injustice to the term, so what is Damien Rice then? On par with him? Both "musicians" who have had their "first albums" and what if Hung sells better? The horror! Stupid record companies. Wasting good money on producing what I could EASILY produce with laxatives - the money should be used for NKF instead. keke.
Okay, the reason why i didn't blog for some time was cos i was on a meditation period again, rethinking my existence, identity and bonds. As usual, doing what isn't good for me- thinking too much. But it has been very rejuvenating. For i sorted out some things (at least for now) that have bothered me for so long and i feel like my direction in life is all of a sudden much clearer. Whether it is temporary or not, no matter. Live now.
I am STILL in love with Tori Amos. *no HUGE surprise i suppose*
With the addition of 3 more songs that topped Zheng Yi's charts.
" Hey Jupiter " , " Talula " and " Caught A Lite Sneeze "
And for the less adventurous (or less angry), i recommend Peter, Paul and Mary's "5000 miles" (courtesy of zzy) and for the time to time dosage of bubblegum, pinkiebarbie pop , Cyndi Wang's " Ai Ni " - cute song. (first time i heard a singer going TE2 in a song, as in seriously whining "Ai NIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII", how careless!)
I am still itching to bake. Next up, marble cake and breadn'butter pudding (courtesy of cris' mom's receipe)
I feel much more comfortable with my choice of studying Chinese recently.
After i picked up 2 great books. My usual reading material consists of works by dead writers who write about stuff that i can hardly relate to cos they are so backdated and so distant (distantly China too).
Su Tong is quite a remarkable writer. (oh yeah, like ANYONE will be busy scribbling down this name for reference )
Didn't turn up for 2 council gatherings to date.
The significance and relevance of each outing wanes.
Cos not many ppl turn up nowadays (and yes, i contribute to that too, i know) and the people i WANT to meet there , i meet on individual or clique basis.
I don't feel any guilt though. Less guilt , more pride, my new slogan.
Probably a little to ah zhao.
So glad lau n dele's coming back! :)
diff timings tho. Lau : late may to end june. Dele early july till ??? .
They'll miss each other, but i get to conc. my attention one by one. good.
Things always turn out alright dun they. they HAVE to somehow.
its hard not to be complacent sometimes, to think that things always do turn out fine and we shouldn't worry so much or put in so much effort to ensure that they do.
Like the parade rehearsals i was expecting to start in early May? Got postponed to early June so that's another month of freedom for me.
And sometimes i actually think i'm REALLY optimistic, or whatever u call that, cos i tend to overlook the bad parts of life (unless they are right in my face like e stoopid parade),
like only now did i realise i will be burning 3 of my saturdays away consecutively and i realli don't feel as bad as i am entitled to feel! That's how zheng yi survives army. With a bit of his old charm *chuckles*, slyness and optimism.
MEDIA
i got to watch half of SHE's miniconcert in sg. haha. Hebe sux, keep "walking-pitch", luckily got my Selina and Ella to hold her pitch down. Diu ren.
And a bit of Billboard charts, Clay aiken realli looks sissy man. Haha, flipped when i saw his dead-rat expression when some guy mentioned a gay joke directed to him. And that host also said outright : " Evanescence sucks. " haha. Americans are so stupid.
And a bit of HK Movie Awards : hope that Mr. Tang isn't just publicity-hungry when he went up stage to receive some achievement award for Zhang Guo Rong. It's realli quite moving.
So Yao Shun made it to I-weekly cover. That just means, I-weekly has got its "Ugliest Magazine Cover" nomination for their 40th anniversary. She looks H-I-D-E-O-U-S.
YAO JING.
She shld be shot. honest. not with darts.
Ou Xuan's not doing too well in the Spicy Siblings 9 pm Ch 8 show. But she looks so good. haha. And i hate myself for looking forward to the 7pm Fish Fillet show (ridiculous) cos its jus ANOTHER Holland V.
Y-Kant-Singaporean Scriptwriters- Move- ON???
We're more than just Ah Beng, Local food, HDB flats, Aunties and Family.
There are definitely more general (and more specific) stuff to write about! COME ON.
i might consider going there after mi bond expires. They NEED "INSPIRATION". and young blood.
General
I jus realised i'm old. :(
Really really. Sick.
oh man. Ah Wing has got new songs - I recommend Dream Lover - on her site.
She is heelarious. hee hee.
Haagen Daaz banana quite rocks. Mom got me some cos she won bout $200 on mahjong. Of course i asked for it, she is SO selfish.
My mom is starting to show signs of influence from her ah soh mahjong kakees. She seems to be making alot of ahsoh-ish, as hokkien describes "zhi2" comments, like:
Me: " Mom , u know what day is the coming sunday? "
Mom (wiping e table) : " Dunno. What day? "
Me : " Mother's DAY LAH. That's y i change duty wat."
Mom (nonchalantly) : " Cheah. How i know, I don't have mother what. "
WAH LAU. wahhaha. i threatened to beat her for that. keke. So irritating. Jus cos granny's dead, she say this kind of (quote fm junjie .. wahhaa ) "BLASPHEMIOUS" thing.
Oh and think my dad was beating mi bro and mom up (in the playful sense) cos he was going on and on about a not-exactly-funny occurence he met with when he went shopping for fondue cheese (yay! dinner!) , and after he ended and walked away:
Mom : " Wah. He very luo suo hor."
Bro : " Ya. And not even funny mah. "
Haahaa then mi bro told mi dad mi mom said dat. "TELLTALE"
and mi mom told mi dad mi bro said dat. "TELL TALE TWO"
They both got walloped. keke.
Heard mom's laughing and squealings from inside. Old people. *shakes head*
Okay that's all for today folks. I'm getting numb fingers.
