title:{Lasalle Rockz}

Yupz. You saw the title right. Lasalle rockz. LOL. I had a terrific experience over there. Seeing Vijay's RASA pieces. And Hui Min's performance. Check out the program sheet with my name on it..Woohoo..Cheap thril. LOL

Click on the image to enlarge. I'm like voice 4 and Hui Min's voice 1. Man army sucks. Supposed to help Sherman do backup for his recital. Sadly its on a Friday. And being on standby. Getting an off is kinda hard. Stupid army. And I'll miss Hui Min's own recital on Wednesday. Double whammy. I'm wasting so many opportunities here!!!. GRRR!!! *bares teeth*

Oh wells. Its a long weekend. Feels kinda short. Already Monday going to over. So sianz. Upped my exercise regime. Really gotta lose the pounds. Now gonna be ambitious. Aiming to look like King Leonidas in 300. All the spartan's physique rockz. LOL. I really am packing the pounds. Stupid good food.

title:{Anger Management}

Apparently you can tell a person's vocal range, from his physical appearances. I gotta learn more about it. So cool. So apparently I got the looks of a tenor, and Daniel would be a typical baritone look. Tall lanky kind. Sop. Not very sure. Gotta go look at the cellist again. Maybe I'll ask more from her.

Frozen Subway Cold Cut Trio. YUM YUM. I bought subway back home and I put it in the freezer. You gotta like leave it in there for about 15 mins plus minus. Then take it out to enjoy your super meal. It tastes really really really really really good. I'm like Woah!!. The coldness makes it awesome. Done that twice and the results are still the same. It makes the veggie awesome.

Haiz. I did something rather unrepairable. A sin that, well I'll pay for it somehow. Karma will handle it. Rather maybe it handled it already. I don't know. My worst outburst ever. Stupid brother. Super rude. And really getting out of hand. I totally went berserk on him. First time I scolded vulgarities. I could feel my whole body trembling. Really letting out everything inside. It took quite a while before I could calm down. It was scary. Haiz. Life sucks. Sucks to be me anyway.

Its so hard to depend on yourself in life. When so many people just abandon you. So hard to find true friends around. Even those close ones can deceive. Nasty little critters. LOL. Its ironic to know many people. And yet non of them seem to know you. At least your existence isn't really acknowledged. What am I anyway? Chopped Liver?

title:{Etat Shivasyastakam}

Man I had a cool singing evening. Though at the cost of One Off Day. But hey its super worth it. I learnt lots of cool stuff today. Like how Hui Min is within the friendship circle of my secondary school friend. Man Lasalle-SIA really rocks big time. I went to help a composer-major who was doing a piece with had singing/or reciting. Super fun. That guy really rockz man. His piece is super funky and really lots of weird ass notes. Even the singing is very discordant.

Lasalle-SIA is full of talented musicians with brilliance flowing out from their ears. Even being with part of it, I can feel rather belittled. Thank goodness Hui Min intro me. Now I got a small recognition albeit quite insignificant. But hey it was fun and awesome. Seeing and being part of it. Woo. I feel high man. Made new friends, a cute voice major. Lol. Hui min's junior. And learn about the good food opposite Lasalle-SIA. Maybe next time I'm gonna take a part time voice major as well. Most probably in the pop field. Got this guy super rockz. He doesn't sing English songs very well but other languages, his voice just shines. Especially for the Melodies Of Life song. Awesome stuff.

Super jealous. I can't wait to get start on turbo power on my music career. Stupid army really holding me back. Gotta go research on Physiotherapy soon. Got a doctorate person who specializes in that field. Hopefully if I have time I'll give him a call to drill more information on the course and its career aspect. As well as course outline. Really good to know more people. I'm so glad I had this day as off. Kinda worth it.

title:{Monday Blues}

Well I get to book in on Monday morning. But already getting the blues. Feeling super sianz. Weather very hot lately. Wanted to run this morning, end up doing like a quarter of what is supposed to be done. Super fiery weather. Want to melt liaoz.

Thinking of what to do in the future. Physiotherapy. I got a contact with a Dr. Rather someone who has the doctorate who specializes in that field. Maybe I can ask more questions from there. My dad sure has the bestest contacts. Thinking of whether to get a scholarship. Whether the bond is good or bad. Not very sure. All I know is I wanna do something in healthcare. Was at TTSH today the clinic. Saw the emergency wing of the place. Kinda cool, seeing people rushing here and there, so mission orientated. At least that's what the surface shows. I bet its super stress.

Lesson 3. Starting on Arias already. Not bad I must say. I at least know how to make the sound more whole and less restricted/airy/throaty. Already have an audition piece planned out although the choice of song is rather weird. I use the song a means of fine-tuning and a short chorus piece to audition/showcase. Kinda like a resume. Haha. Been feeling very emo these few days. Stand-by coming up. National Day. I think I want to opt out. I'd prefer my weekends.

Getting addicted to alcohol. Bad. Its worse than getting addicted to coffee. I kinda like need both. A fix of one drink each per week. At least alcohol does numb the effects of being emo/depressed. Bad. Really bad. Oh wells. ZZ can drive. Sat in his car once just to avoid walking the long distance to the gate from bunk. LOL. Been wanthing to write that down but keep forgetting. Kinda cool when your friends learns how to drive. Gotta start soon. But no money. Gotta invest in music. Cause that's where my live is gonna be. I just need either a guitarist, or a female partner for duets.

title:{Milestone}

Its a milestone. 150 posts as of this one. Sadly not a very happy post lol. Feeling very emo the whole day. Don't know why. Just keep thinking stuff. Wondering whether I'm doing the right thing, making the right choices. Hard to bash through those thick bushes in my path. The least traveled one. Can't even see where I'm going. Probably doing what most people won't usually do. Really trying to let go of everything and pursue what I really want. Its hard. You're really all alone out there. Its scary.

Guidance just comes and goes. They teach you what you need to know. And you're on your own. Survival of the fittest. Or smartest. Or most cunning. Whichever your world wants to play. Tough. Everyone's probably busy with their exams coming up. NUS, NTU. Most of the people just simply seems drowning in their work.

Starting on working on some duet stuff. Need a guitarist. Don't know if that girl is a right choice. Don't even know I should even address her as a female. Lol. Weird person. 'Dreams' by The Cranberries, 'Everybody's Someone' by Leann Rimes & Bryan McFadden and 'Something Stupid' by Frank Sinatra. I'll see what I can do in my 5 days in camp.

title:{Chemical Defense}

Burnt a Saturday. Rather a half day. Had to stay back and do some chemical defense nonsense. Wearing that suit(Mopp 4 they call it) and entering the gas chamber, taking off the mask to breathe the stupid tear gas. Quite an experience I must say. Lol.

The later part of the day was much better. Watched 'The Reaping'. Not quite the ending as expected. Oh wells. The gathering was quite unique. All the highest ranking Men. Each representing the HQ, Alpha, Bravo and me Charlie. All the BC GAs and CO PA. Super uber cool. Been quite the boring week, save for the games days. And getting screwed for other people's problem. Super sux. Not losing the weight I should be. At least its stagnant. Stupid fats. Gotta have some other way to burn them off permenantly.

Love stories really get to me. Makes me feel very emo and lovesick. Saw the korean short-clip of a photographer and some girl he met. She ended up blinded by his darkroom's liquid material. She recovered but the guy went missing. Turns out he donated his eyeballs/cornea whatever to her. So he ends up blind. And she realizes it a bit late in her life. Stupid love shows. Never a good one happening in my life. All those whom I gave my love all just haiz. Not appreciative people. Wasted too much time on them liaoz.

title:{Super Size Me}

Man Super Size Me. The movie is seriously disgusting. After watching it. You will seriously want to watch your weight, and stop eating Macs. Man seriously.

Anyway, implemented a difference exercise regime. Went to the neighborhood park. Got this pebble path. Some therapy kinda stuff where you walk around barefoot. Really hurts. Supposed to be a substitute to those massage kinda stuff. 10 rounds that thing. And 5 rounds around the park. My legs just turn to jelly.

Back to camp soon. So sianz. My nice nice break has come to an end. 10 more months to go. I've just officially waste 1 year of my life. Should have started doing music earlier. Need to break out of the choral singing. Seriously. Can hear the covering up when you hit the high notes. The vowels just change. So wrong.

title:{Happy Easter}

What a weekend it turns out to be. At least I'm able to occupy myself to distract my mind from other thoughts. Friday activities was mostly spent in the evening. Dinner with secondary school friends followed by the movie 'Nada Sou Sou'. I must say its quite an interesting movie. Everyone should go watch it or something. The weird thing is everyone keeps asking me what the movie is. Never heard of it. And somehow the cinema was fully packed on the day itself. At many theaters too. Lol. A simply fascinating tale and the way the director spins it is really captivating.

Saturday. Went for a swim. 30 laps. Very impressive and I feel no fatigue at all. Getting better at the stamina part. Had a fund raising dinner at the Ceylon Sports Club. Some hockey night organized. Saw Hui Hui and her bunch of CJ friends. Didn't really stay long. A lone guy at a table of girls. Can't really expect much. So many to ring up some of the dudes and got a TCC experience.

The mocha was the best in my life. Lol. More like the ice-cream was like, super woah. Keep returning home at late hours, super tiring. Considering gotta wake up early to go run. Still need to work on getting that Spartan body. Man seriously wicked stuff they got. Gotta work harder then. Push more. Looking forward to lesson in the late afternoon. At least the voice projection is getting better.

title:{Freedom Ends}

Finally my 2 and half day off comes to an end. Not so bad. I kinda made it as productive as I could. One week since my birthday. Nothing much has changed. Nothing special happens anyway. My best birthday present came from my Dad in a form of an SMS. Kinda unexpected. Oh wells.

Tuesday. Went to watch 300 with Sheryl. So hard to get to go out with people. Everyone is just too busy with their own lives I guess. Then went shopping with her for her handbag. Or working bag, whatever. LOL. Had quite a dilemma later on. Didn't know whether to go home or wander around before going to see Hui Min sing at the Mezabar at Meritus Mandarin Hotel. After downing 2 cups of coffee. It seems the answer is kinda apparent. LOL.

Spent quite a bit. 60 bucks plus drinks. Rum and Coke, Baileys Irish Cream(on the rockz), Tequila Sunrise. Drink until got headache. Not bad. Her reportoire rather large. 100 plus songs although she sing the usual popular evergreen songs. Shared Hokkien Mee with her and her BF. Apparently he hasn't gone army yet. One of those late people due to government computer glitches. Oh wells. Interesting couple. Haha.

title:{Long Day}

Had a super long day. Clocked about 15km these 3 days. Run until my legs want to fall apart liaoz. Today went to watch TMNT with CS. Not a bad movie. I'd recommend it. Very fun to watch. Travelled to and fro today. Went to orchard and had my dose of coffee. Never fails to make me drowsy. LOL. Then went to esplanade only to find the book I want is not there. Then back to Music Essential to find the book I want out of stock. Oh wells. Lots of walking and walking.

Stupid Yamaha loves to cheat people money. I saw this pitchpipe. 50 bucks!!!. Crazy price. Then went to esplanade and managed to find one that cost 12 bucks. LOL Craziness sia. Oh wells. Good thing too. And a weird place to find it. At a violin/string instrument shop.

Dad's feeling a bit under the weather. Hate to see him like that. Just makes me realize how old he is getting. Time flies really fast. Gotta kick start my music career as fast as I can man. Wasted too much time liaoz. Burnt all my weekends for nothing. Yeesh. Hopefully I can advance fast enough. Can't afford any setbacks liaoz.

title:{Singing Again}

Feels good to be singing again. Had my first vocal lesson. And ya it was more of an evaluation and some training. Not bad. At least I know where and how to work on my vocals. Training to be more of a soloist voice. Can tell the difference when you hold back and give all you got. That's what too much choral singing does. Gotta break out of it. Huimin looks as great as ever. Very long never see her liaoz. Too bad her weekly performance is on Tuesdays. If not I could probably go and see. Come to think of it I do have an off on Monday and Tuesday. Maybe I'll pop over and check her out.

Lol. One of the regular spec was telling my bunk about his sports. Its more like sex rather than sports. Trains almost everything except calf muscles. Well he looks great. Thin and can see some muscle definition. According to him, it starts of as a hobby, then becomes a habit which will eventually be an obsession. Well sounds like a great deal, except the equipments would be much harder to procure. LOL. Well. If you keep an open mind, it is quite an very exhausting sport. The hardest would of course to find the right equipment. His secret to staying lean.
