Hmm.. Let's use pictures to describe what's been happening the past week.
Goofing around at work. We need all the smiles and craziness to get the hard work done. That includes doing stupid things of course. =D
Working with the Russian National Orchestra. They're awesome. (Oh and don't forget her blue eyes. =x)
Halloween Party at Plush (formerly known as Velvet Dragon/Club Momo).
Working in the day partying at night. Don't you just love halloweens? You'll get to see girls in your whatever fetish costume that you'd wish them to be in. =D Thanks Yi for the pumpkin head bucket!

"Do you know that Topshop clothes are made by slave workers?"
"Oh is it? Well, its not my business.. =D"
That fucking ignorant, self-centered reply from this obviously over-pampered bitch just fucking made me flare up. I straight away, without hesitation, blocked and deleted her from my msn list. Felt like giving her a freaking tight slap. How ignorant can people be?
Those poor people working at these factories are earning less than S$8 bucks a day. We spent S$12 buying one shirt. And if that isn't pitiful enough, they're forced to work long hours, lived in cramped spaces, and forced to meet the minimum amount of clothes per hour. Else they'll get suspended without pay. The 1st line already made me sick and avoid buying of Topshop clothes. The rest?
The way she replied me just shows how ignorant people are in this uber comfortable clean place that we're so lucky to be living in. So pampered are people nowadays, they hate their own life. They get depressed on the simplest of things, or just boredom. Hate their life where others around the globe couldn't even dream of having.
Another example of over-pampered people. While working, I was thirsty and drank water straight from the tap. I get this "Ew, gross.." face from a girl. Its tap water for goodness sake. I'm not drinking from the drain.
Usually its the girls who have this over-pampered attitude. Ask the friendly Myanmar girls. They said it for themselves. SINGAPORE GIRLS ARE TOO PAMPERED. I would like to correct that statement. "MOST SINGAPORE GIRLS ARE TOO PAMPERED".
There's nothing more noisome than an ignorant, over-pampered, sefl-centered person. Nothing.

I'm bored. I'm getting bored of stuffs and I'm getting more interested in new stuffs.
Things I used to love to do, doesn't seem interesting now. It's time to get some renewed energy from new stuffs.
Work's getting more interesting. Soundcraft digital mixer Vi4. Check that out. A freaking $100k++ mixer! Crazy shit. You can buy 2 van and still have extra to buy 1 MacBook Pro. Wtf? And there's a more expensive and fiercer one. The DB5. Near $200k. I shall say nothing. Then comes the JBL triple 2s, 8s, 9s. Fierce speakers. Freaking fierce. And more to come. VRx, Controls, etc.
Getting more lobangs for freelance work on soundman/deejays. Fun stuffs to do. Recent work was at Suntec City Starhub Road show. Its kinda cool, but I rather look after the sound of a band than just play music. Most probably, will be taking care of a club's sound system for two nights. Ain't gonna reveal the club's name. Just to say its a big, known club. =)
Next year hopefully, if time permits, I'll be helping out in Esplanade's concert hall as an assistant sound engineer. Freelance of course. And if that happens, I've just got part of my dream come true.
So far so good. I'm walking on the right path. Happy. Wished I could share this happiness with someone. Then again, who'd bother?

Its amusing reading this 24 year old girl's msn nick. It read "I hate you for not loving my internal feelings at all... biased."
Less than a month ago it was "No more love for me! I can't trust guys!"
About 2 weeks ago it was "I change my mind. I love ******."
And it keeps changing, every month. Lol. Sometimes I just wanna double click on her nick and type a big fat ROFL. Just for kicks. And its not only her, there are others too. All those lovey dovey nicks. Then emo, angry nicks, in less than... 3 months? Kudos to those long lasting relationships. But to the rest, you guys are just over using the word love. Try crush, infatuation, fling, etc. Don't give love a bad name ya?

Was listening to Class 95 in the car when Richard Marx "Right Here Waiting", Cliff Jimmy's "Bright Sunshiny Day" and Police's "Every Breath You Take" were played. Good ol' oldies to sooth the ears after a long day of listening to Aunty gossips, high pitched laughters and screaming children. Notice that these songs are somehow evergreen. No matter how many times you play and listen to them, you just can't get tired of them somehow. Its amazing.
And all that is called good music. That's what I wanna do. Make good music and sound. Not just metal, rock, jazz. Its music. It's not just about the equipments. Not just about the playing. Not just about the type of genre. Its, again I say it, music. Good quality music/sound. Not easy these days to get that. Oh well, shut up Fie. Yes we know you love music.
I've cleaned and polished my guitars. They're uber sexy now. And you've gotta feel them. Just gotta. Umph~

How should I say this? Sleepless night. And all I can think of is her. If only you knew. Then again, you'd better not know.
Summer Snow
From the clear blue morning sky,
I see the summer snow falling.
Then I look into your eyes,
Is this a new world dawning?
When the darkness of the night is overcome,
We may rise to find the brightness of the sun.
But if I were to give up this chance,
I may never have this dance.
I wish with all my body, my heart, my soul,
That I would never have to let you go.
If you knew the feelings I had for you,
Perhaps you would feel the same way too.
I see your smile, your eyes lightening up.
Heart and soul, I feel so light.
How I long to embrace you in my arms,
Keeping you warm from the falling snow.
Alas! It is all but a dream, a fantasy,
Imagination runs wild, as if on estasy.
Will you ever love me? I do not know.
All I can do is sit and pray, under the summer snow.

Hmm. I think I've never posted "Mistress of the Wolves" lyrics here before. Here it is then. My 1st ever fully completed original.
Mistress of the Wolves
Beyond the town where
Living mortals breathe,
Within the forest of
Whispering ancient trees,
Beside a lake
Of satin black waters,
Rests a silver haired Mistress –
One of night’s daughters.
Her wolf companion bays –
In homage to the moon,
The night wind carries
Her bewitching tune.
It rises above the
Howling winds -
And touches the soul
Deep within.
The howling of the winds,
we hear through the night.
Its the calling of the,
Mistress of the Wolves.
Entwined with her wolves
Lonely cries,
Her beautiful face
Turned to night sky,
The Mistress of Wolves
Bathed in moonlight –
Sends her bewitching song -
Into cold winter's night.
Mistress of the wolves,
You can hear her cries from deep inside of the woods.
All her servants pay homage to the moon.
She's the heiress, oh mistress of the wolves.
Mistress of the Wolves
Beyond the town where
Living mortals breathe,
Within the forest of
Whispering ancient trees,
Beside a lake
Of satin black waters,
Rests a silver haired Mistress –
One of night’s daughters.
Her wolf companion bays –
In homage to the moon,
The night wind carries
Her bewitching tune.
It rises above the
Howling winds -
And touches the soul
Deep within.
The howling of the winds,
we hear through the night.
Its the calling of the,
Mistress of the Wolves.
Entwined with her wolves
Lonely cries,
Her beautiful face
Turned to night sky,
The Mistress of Wolves
Bathed in moonlight –
Sends her bewitching song -
Into cold winter's night.
Mistress of the wolves,
You can hear her cries from deep inside of the woods.
All her servants pay homage to the moon.
She's the heiress, oh mistress of the wolves.

Had a heart to heart talk with my mum in the wee hours. We talked about our lives, problems, issues, to better understand each other. We cleared each others doubts and misconceptions. My poor mum.
Gonna talk to the rest of my family on Hari Raya. To better understand each other. I felt it is time for me to do something. Maybe I heed Yk's advice. I'll try to lead. As the eldest of the siblings, the responsibilities of being a big bro has now taken a new lead. That is to take care of the family ties. Of course I'll be extremely nervous and worried about the outcome of it but being 22 years old, I have to share my views as the adult that I already am. To bring the family closer together and understand each other is my objective.
Its surprising in a way after I discussed about anything, I realised the way I talked, the way I express my views to the rest seems so natural. Words just flow out of my mouth, eyes kept reading the body language and facial expression, ears listening to each and everyone's words. Working with people who cares for each other, doing stuffs with people who will pull or push each other when they can't keep up, it brings the mood up and makes it enjoyable to continue even though things are shitty around.
Keep moving. We should all do that.

Nobody likes to be a middleman. You're in this zone where everything you do or say will just bounce back and hit you right in the face. When both parties are friends/colleagues/family, it gets harder to actually resolve the matter.
Out of anger or frustration, people will unconsciously scold someone innocent. That I can understand. But all the time? Being blamed, scolded or even neglect? I don't know what to do sometimes instead I'll either just take the blame or scolding with a closed heart. It hurts seeing someone you know get angry at you and you don't know how to apologize. Not giving a fuck's just not my type right now.
Sigh. I wish for a world where smiles are genuine.
The peacefulness of my sleep every night depends on the number of smiles I made during the day. Lets go out, have fun and de-stress again Michy.
