I am very happy in the state I am in as of now. Had a lot of activities going on and started bonding with the the goldfish and the dinosaur again.

And today, the tribute people went to watch This Is It together. :D It was very worth watching, seriously. Then later hung out at Pelita.

And I broke dunno how many laws today.

1. Drove without license.
2. Parked at the road side - kena saman.
3. Cramped 5 big guys in the back of car and one dugong in front. (Please bear in mind that dugong is a rare and protected species.)
4. Rained heavily at my place but didn't use wiper cause my ticket is stuck to it.

Ok the 4th one is not really a LAW. But still, dangerous. I'm glad I reached home in one piece. I am GLAD that there was no road block, no police car stopping me and no accident while sending the guys back.






Why You Wanna Mess It All Up? - Rachelle Ferrell

I miss my jazz ensemble. Life feels very boring without some heart piercing lectures from ELY. Nobody pushes me to work hard anymore. Nobody makes me stress anymore. No more stressing before class, in class and after class. No more feel of relief after class is over. No more emo black face after class. No more complaints about class. No more saying, "because of ELY!!" when your friends ask you, "why so hardworking?" or "why so stress?".

No more a lot of things.

I wonder... Would there be anybody cuter than him?



Seriously, how can someone be so attractive? And so entertaining. *drools*

So cute! HEE.

I'm glad that he won! He really deserves it. He has the voice and most importantly, the stage presence. If you watched his audition video, you could feel the energy coming out from him when he appeared on stage. Watching him jumping on stage makes me feel alive. It makes me wanna jump around with him too. :) There's also something about his eyes. When he stares into the camera into you, it is so convincing.

This is it!

MJ tribute is finally over! And gawd am I relieved after the last song and the bow! Days and days of practices til late finally paid off, though the show was only 1 1/2 hours. But it was all worth it. :)

Recap of D-Day

11.15am: Reached school. Hung around at Jaafar. Chit chat. Sound check.
1pm: Rundown starts.
2.30pm: Makan time! Photoshooting session.
4pm: Went shopping at Jusco.
5.30pm: Hung out at Carin's place bejeweled-ing lol.
6.30pm: Dress up and prepare self. Drive to college.
7pm: Reached college. Makan again!
7.45pm: Stand by at backstage.
8.45pm: Show begins!
10.15pm: Show ends! Hung around in college. Took pictures, chit chat and such.
11.10pm: Drove to Pavilion for a movie.
11.50pm: Cloudy with a chance of meatballs with Ovira and Carin.
1.30am: Movie ends. Drop both of them back home and drove home.

Everyone really did a great job and I really enjoyed the show. =) I was a bit nervous at the first song the choir was supposed to sing - Ben/I'll Be There - but then quickly got used to it. I was also surprised that we had a large crowd in the recital hall! It was so huge that when we ghosts wanted to go down and scare the people, we couldn't move til the back HAHA and had to move back to the stage.

Guys good job! Everyone did fantastic! It is YOU that made it happening. Because of YOU the tribute was a huge success! And the choir's most happening part is - we got the weird part in World Medley RIGHT! THREE TIMES!!! Woohoo! AYKM is damn proud of us la! xD

ICOM will be sponsoring everyone who is involved in the tribute a movie ticket to MJ's movie This Is It. And it will be on next Friday at 7pm in KLCC. Awesome kan?! HEE. Also, we hope to get sponsorship to bring the tribute out of ICOM. And also to get some pocket money HAHA. Oh well, who doesn't love money? =P

Took pictures but they aren't with me. Will post it later when I get them.

So people, THAT was it. A good show ended with a celebration in the cinema and a sore throat. But really, it's all worth it. It was never this well done before. Thanks to everyone who put in effort to make this happen.

Btw...

"Doc, what's wrong with him (his son)?"
"He's in food coma."
- Cloudy with a chance of meatballs


LOL.

Long ride home

After dropping Ovira and Carin home, I started my looooooong ride home as usual. Only difference is, it was at 11pm, a cold night. Had my windows winded down to enjoy the breeze.

It was a long ride home. But I enjoyed it pretty much. Let my mind wandered as I drove, dangerous I know, but I could still concentrate on the road.

The night was just brilliant. No jams, smooth traffic all the way home. I love it that way. Or maybe I'm just bias, cause I love the night more. ;)

Day time... It's just too busy, too noisy. Chill man, what's the hurry?

Hammer me on the head and...

Fly me to the moon
And let me play among the stars
...

Oh by the way, check out my door's new design.


Door knob removed cause it locked me inside. And yesterday night we went DONG DONG TUK TUK PONG PONG in my room. So awesome, kan?


I stuck a plastic bag in the hole and kept my giant clock at the door for privacy. The clock's been there for ages and not hung up, might as well make use of it. :P

Yay I'm getting a new door!

:'( Doushite...

It's been a while since I last wrote about the happenings in my life.

Well, there ain't much to say except that since the last exam was over, I have been on a holiday mood and neglecting my studies. Western Music History is over. But that doesn't mean I can stop practicing or reading up acoustics notes. Then again, laziness took over me. And my work starts piling up. And being hooked on Japanese drama ain't helping at all. Not to mention certain thoughts that were stuck in my head.

I have:
1. one lead sheet to gao dim
2. to finish drafting the program notes (thanks to my dear classmates)
3. to practice Got A Match - which also means I need to write down beautiful lines cause I usually don't remember what I hentam and start to solo fast fast. Tempo 270~ can die~
4. to dig out my The Prayer lead sheet which I misplaced (somebody will kill me if I don't find it because that's the only paper with his reharm xD) and then practice - this one I find it very hard, dunno why.
5. Practice Bed of Roses piano part until perfect - LOVE that song!
6. Memorize lyrics and parts for tribute songs

Oh yeah. I am also part of the choir team for MJ tribute. We just had a gig last Wednesday at a shopping mall in Bangsar. It all went great. No worries. And we'll be as awesome at the real show. :D D-Day is getting close, which means there will be practice everyday starting from next Monday onwards. Now that explains why I feel my routine is all messed up. I wake up at 7, come home at 9, sleeps at 12, and had to wake up at 7 again the next morning. Compared to many of you, I got more than enough sleeping time. But to me it's not enough if I don't get to sleep til at least 9.30am. And if I lack of sleep I will not do serious stuff like PRACTICING. Hence my piled up work. Sometimes I hate that my house is so far from school. The 30 mins drive to school and back home sucks. Sucks even more when there's jam and when I just want to get home fast.

It's also time to put certain thoughts away for now. I need to get my serious stuff done and those thoughts need to stop bothering me. Bad things happen to us all the time. All we have to do is stand up and move on. When I was down, I looked around me. Everything was still the same, nobody cares shit about what happened. To me, it may be an utmost important thing but to them, it's not even a grain of salt. Whatever happens, happens. Whatever doesn't, doesn't. And whatever happens in the future, I shouldn't care. Heh. Pandai cakap but dunno can do or not. xD

It all needs to stop. Just give me a little more time.

I don't like it that way...

I want a second chance

Give me a second chance. I will do it perfect for you.

But there won't be one in the context we're talking about. 

So looking forward to it, but in the end I screwed up. 

At least it's not my tempo, like the lecturers commented for the past 3 sems. 

Being too focused on the montuno, I forgot about the happening part. 

And there goes my performance. 

It went down the drain. 

Twas a sin that it's existence is unforgivable in the music scene which I just committed. 

It's time to learn to cover up. There is simply no room for mistakes. 

Disclaimer: I'm not ranting. I'm realizing.
