play the funky music!

yesterday was superb. it's 7.30 pm at the waterfont in esplanade. JIVEHOLICS! haha. i dun know whether i spelt it correctly, the poster spelt it worst, JAVAholics. haha. it's superb man, the live and all, particularly their 3rd set, where it comprises of fast pace music, funk and even latin. if i can get my foundation right, i may wanna take a step into latin, even though it sounds like the classy classy kinda music (i'm a poor boy, not rich, just amazed by latin), i wanna try it out and play with it.

there's a few weird stuff yesterday though. the soundman, i think he's from DXO. bloody boost the bass drums till i can feel my jeans vibrate, and boost the highs in the hi-hat. too much vibs till one of the speakers fell off from it's position, which is on top of another speaker.

"i can make this shit move" - matilda

if you wonder who's that, think of singapore idol. haha. YES, IT'S HER! she's able to stretch her vocals man. superb. *bai bai* haha... really good vocal.

after the live, we went for food and YES! CARL'S JR! thn hit the last train home and it was already 1 in the morning. it's great!

band name

sean seems to be quite busy nowadays so i think the band kinda put to a halt. so, i've formed a new band. haha. really new band. drummer just learnt HER drums last year and bassist just learnt bass this year. so it's very new and all of us are very inexperienced. even though i dont think this is a business thing, i hope we can really improve as a band. play simple and improve in dynamics, techniques and theories. it's pretty much an improvement programme. still searching for a band name as usual. haha. was thinking of calling it lingerie talkshow, but it's pretty obscene, so scrapped it. haha.

went to church today as usual, same row of seat and head to taman for lunch. finished gun x sword at kian's, pretty nice anime. haha. thn home now.

funk beats...

i do not know why but i was constantly discouraging myself in my own works. i guess i dun really have that much esteem and even though i have my pride, i'll just let things slip away and not pursue further. i feel kinda like pope john, i dun mean i am or any other humbling characteristic of him (he's like superman), when he got shot and he forgave the person who shot him. just a thought, does this really happen in the real world within most of us nowadays? it's a dilemma to me, to choose between pride or humbling myself and let people step on me, eventually things will start to go no where. situation wise, if you choose pride, you cannot really expect what the person's reaction will be. what if he just blasts at point blank and you not only have to defend yourself, you got your reputation shattered in front of all your superiors, inferiors, juniors, seniors, etc. so how about humbling yourself? you too will not expect what the person will do (again), instead you will just get stepped over.

projects been quite fun actually, even though i'm like way behind others. haha. super behind. but it's fun. paul and danial needa get their work done, leiyun needa get programs done and i needa get my Keil C and some boards done. ADC is working! 1 down, 6 more boards to go. woohoo.

frisbee

omg, i cant play frisbee anymore. i'm like the person that i first been whn i touched a frisbee. the adrenalin. the "shiokness". woohoo. just wanna play frisbee again, didnt really touched it for months and i cant aim.

even though i only touched the disc twice (coz i'm in the stronger team where i'm dragged by benny's friend), i still feel kinda happy coz i'm like, "i'm playing frisbee again!". haha.

ok, time to relax. oh. i saw a roll royce on tuesday night. i was like, "THAT IS IN SINGAPORE!" well, not everyday you can see a rolls royce on the sg streets. it's a moving millon dollar.

holiday...

well, the title does not really contribute to the post. i'm not having a holiday anyway. project days are just there to waste your time away where you actually bring things home to work on. i just wanna get it over with, just put aside all my laziness and work on it. actually, i did review myself. Even though i told everyone i'm lazy, i realized i did pretty much work.

Why edmund is not a lazy bum:
- he does his home work
- loves to enhance his reports
- practices the bass guitar at least once every 2 days, most of the time, daily
- thinks about project
- playing a leading role (i think) in the project
- fills the ice tray when it's emptied
- does house chores
- cooks


Why you think edmund is a lazy bum:
- he's fat
- has a huge appetite
- does not exercise frequently
- desires keep to the 8 hour sleeping rule
- keeps long hair


so do you still think i'm a lazy bum?

i've this feeling that i should just keep away from cell group or even young adults meeting. it's the devil? or it's just the feeling that i just wanna stay put on one spot, not being pushed by anything and take steps without a rope attached to my neck and dragged by a donkey? i dunno man.

oh, i found this chio bu in scc. dunno whether can i know her or not. haha. she seems popular.

project day... week 2

i'm in my project day for week two. during my review kinda fubared coz i crashed the plane! arh! bloody hell. well it's visual flight rules summore. (for all the non-aerospace junkies, it means flying without instruments, just by sight. which should be much more easier then IFR, instrument flight rules, where you need to monitor a few instruments at one go to make sure you're on the right track.) well, it's pretty weird, i crapped in my VFR but i did well in my IFR. shish man! but now, project 2 time.

gonna make up a checklist for today and the week, i think i'm gonna do all the processor programming by this weekend or something. i'm also kinda broke, not too sure whether i can even go to church with the amount of cash in hand rite now, not talking about the amount in my student card. but staying at home and do work is good! provided that next week tuesday is labour day and wedensday do not need to come to school coz it's e-learning week for all inter-disciplinary study modules. ROCKS!

yesterday was pretty good, or i can say pretty good jamming. for quite some time i didnt have the hype in my life. i hope i didnt like bored shannon and sean out coz of my noobness or something. but it's really fun, even though it's short. haha.

JAZZ COME ON! JAZZ COME ON!

arh! i'm so stupid!

you know what can ruin my day big time? not being able to play my bass without any painful distractions. and all you depressed people out there, i mean literally painful. shit man. i shouldnt have done it.

i was out for lunch with binny and kian, just like last week. why dont go with the church friends? coz taman jurong food is cheap and good. with the amount of money spent in great world, i can probably get 2 servings that comes with a "taste grade" higher than what i'm going to have in great world. best of all, it's near my home, so i get to head home, take a bath, and go for lunch. anyway, lunch was good. kian bloody hell ate in total of 3 mini claypot of food, 2 soup and 1 chicken rice. it's pretty worth it. 3 bucks, you've got rice, chicken, some lap qiong and shitake mushroom. the shiok factor is there. wonderfully made for the tongues that desire good food and not bothering about the environment heat.

it was after lunch that binny and i headed to kian's hse. i was playing with a cigarette torch. binny said that torch uses batteries to light up a fuse. well, just in case you dunno how it works, i'll give you a brief thought. imagine you have a light bulb fuse, thn you light it up. when it's light up, blow in your gas, or kerosene, and it will give you the same effect as your 50 cents lighter. kian placed his finger on top of the fuse and it didnt hurt him, so i'm pretty convinced that it's harmless. NOT! i got burnt instead. i wasn't really burnt actually, but i'm having blisters on my index finger! how to pop sia?!

man... where is PCF8592, come out come out wherever you are...
