See? How can you even THINK of kicking such a cute little mammal?
tsk tsk tsk.

Hmm cant really think of much else to say here. Just hope to see everyone there okay? There'll be Bad Obsession and Firebrands too to perform for us. But Joe the cool drummer [we talked to him before. He's real nice(: ] wont be able to make it cuz of NS reservist [say gdbye to all that long hair. Aww. Wasted uh i didn't take photos with him tt day aft Rock For Wayne.. Damn.] So its gonna be an acoustic set for Bad Obsession i guess. Hope AVA plays a real rocking set with all the hxc dancing and screaming yea.

Just watch this video i took of AVA performing The Departure.

-- this has become something we've never believed. slowly but surely it'll take us all away..

Enjoyed my ass off at RFW. Caracal and West Grand Boulevard were damn energetic. Its was a pleasure to watch them perform(: I like to watch the guitarist of WGB perform. heh. Ouh CARACAL managed to get into the finals of Baybeats 07. All the best!

yeah so as a tribute lets have a moment's silence for Wayne Seah of the Suns. He's a cool guy but i hate to have ppl passing on when they still have so much more of life to enjoy.. Rest in peace dude. Hope u move on to a better place~

-- remember the thunder. AMEN

Chaos via arSCENEic

destination unknown.

Band auditions was yesterday. It was nervewrecking but still very fun. Thank god the judges weren't those mean and strict kind who'll bite off our heads at every mistake. Comments they gave us were guitar was too soft; need to tune up a bit more cuz the solo couldn't be heard. OMG and Zim had to stay up to learn the solos in like two friggindays. Then they said vocals should be cleaned up abit. Bass and drums are tight but can be tighter. But the good comments they gave us were: Looove the outfit! Good stage presence. Love the dancing~! [ great job ppl! maybe we shld think abt joining the DanceFloor eh? :P]

we were packing up to leave and was abt to leave the jamming studio when one of the judges said.. 'Good job you guys. But when you get to the finals you should polish up on Stand By Me.. The blablablabla...' OMG those were the magic words. WHEN WE GET TO THE FINALS~

Wish we had recorded the judges' comments so we could contemplate what we heard and what we did not hear.. hmm but its disappointing to know that out of the eleven bands that registered there was only seven that turned up for auditions. And they are choosing six bands to play for finals.. DARN i dun wanna win by default. That's like damn pathetic sia.. ugh. Dunno if they'll change the rules or line up and stuff. We'll just wait and see. The results come out next week!!!

After all the debating on what was said and how to improve.. We headed on to Esplanade to chill and take pictures. Here are some of my fave shots! Ouh yeahh and we got high too.. On beer~ ROOT beer :p

Surgical Paranoia

OMG yay!
I am finally online(:
Camp Guitare Photos can be found here:

Didnt take many pics uh sorry.. Any problems let me know..

Okay time to talk about ME!
Most of you guys wouldn't have known about this but i just had an ear surgery. Its a minor ear surgery to patch up the hole in my ear drum. I learnt in school that these kinda hole usually heal on their own but this particular one is kinda stubborn. Been 3 weeks still it didnt heal so a surgery was to be scheduled. I forgot the medical term something-plasty eh. HAHA paiseh~ The person who wrote it down also got some problem with the handwriting. LOL cannot read properly ar..

Anyway it was a heck of an experience! I was already lying on the surgery table awaiting the anesthetic nurse to put me to sleep. Then the mask was on my face. Had to breathe in the sleeping gas.. Skali they injected one effingpainfulashell medication into my I/V site. Sialah~ The pain spread all the way up my left arm like wildfire!
I quickly inhaled the sleeping gas as if i was deprived of oxygen and also as it was the only thing that could keep the pain away.

Had to stay overnight for one night with the bandage on my head like a wannabe Ninja Turtle. Face swollen and feeling drowsy. Ugh. Then the next day was discharged and doctor cut away the bandages. Went home straight via taxi. It was then that i got to see my stitches in all its GLORY. Like WTH?! eeeeeeeeeeeee so gory la. Purple color stitches all the way down my left ear. Now i have trouble hearing cuz its still swollen.

Eff i have trouble even to feel my ears la. So numb. I keep telling ppl i feel like Ms Potato Head like my ear is gonna drop off anytime i jump around or move too much. I'm so scared cuz now is the second day and i still cant feel my ear properly. I dunno if this is a common side effect. Mummy i need my ears~ Dun wanna go deaf :'(
So far not much pain just deafness and a bit uncomfortable. Hope i can regain it fast.. In time for BandzOut 2007.

Pray for me guys (:
Phase One is over. Now's the healing period.. Mana potions ready?!

Scene TakeOver.

wow.
I soo did enjoy my holidays! And it's not even the end of the first week of school.. I've mentioned about the gigs that have been going on during the hols. Too bad i was not able to go to Anberlin's concert and to Rock The Sub. All was not lost though cuz i finally got to meet the guys of Valentine's Letter. Had so much funn.. The guys are such jokers. Hope we get to meet soon. I want proper pictures of you guys~

Sorry about the rashes thing. Might have scared away some ppl. Didnt eat my Anti-Godzilla medication. Hurhur~
No la. Its just my skin allergy working OVERtime cuz of the atmosphere. I'm fine now. I'll live..
Went home at around twelve to one AM. Had to sleep in to be able to wake up for Camp Guitare and chalet the next day. That is why it took so damn long for me to upload the videos and pictures.. Sorry guys. Youtube is being an ASS to me too. What with the superWOLS server i own. Rrr.

Dun fret here it is. I didn't record Missing tho. And my camera has too much special effects for the pics to even look HUMAN. Bursts of color and unearthly lights everywhere!~
Stupid place couldnt even have a good lighting. Like Kai said, you guys DESERVE a better place! So make friends, enlarge your circle of contacts and secure a well-deserved place in the local music scene~
