quick lil update

This is gonna be a short update for tonight. I'm getting really tired so i'll keep it short :).

Mizi, Haaziq and me went for swimming on tuesday and it was so much fun. We did our laps by our own time - own target and it was worth it! Mizi pushed me into doing more laps and I did 7 laps. That's a frickin achievement! (for me). Haaziq did 8 laps and Mizi did 12 laps if im not wrong. That boy got so energetic once we got into the pool. must be the army toughening up our mizi eh? ahaha. We may be swimming again tmr but i'll be only free after 5. I have some uh... things to do. Okay moving on! American Idol just now was alright, nobody really shined probably because its still the top 24. Even Janell Wheeler was... sort of good but not as good as her previous performances. Siobhan Magnus is catching my attention because of her high notes in Holywood Week. She sounds like Adam Lambert when she does the high notes! and the best part is that she looks like HAYLEY WILLIAMS tonight! well on some angles. here just listen to this. doesn't she sounds exactly like Adam Lambert?!



okay i'm gonna end it here but before I do so, I wanna talk more about Invader Zim ahaha. I've watched about 20 episodes of Invader Zim on invaderzimepisodes.org and i'm getting more and more frustrated as to why Nickelodeon stopped the production of Invader Zim. There's dark humour everywhere but its still entertaining! okay I admit when I was 10, Invader Zim did scare the crap out of me with the dark stuff. Some scenes were VERY disturbing for a small kid, especially when Zim goes and steals people's organs and replaces them with random stuff. Maybe it should be catergorised as Mature Cartoon you know, like Family Guy or South Park. Invader Zim rocks! Especially GIR! I'm glad that they're gonna show it again on March but I hope they continue making the series! :(. It needs a bloody ending, where you know Zim actually conquers Earth?! The cliffhangers are killing me! Anyway, here's a funny scene from one of the episodes I watched just now.



I want GIR as a pet! :D okay off to bed.
gnite ppls! :D

American Girl.



Janell Wheeler everyone! :D omg so gorgeous and she has such a nice voice. Its like a girl version of a raspy voice. I love her cover of American Boy!

anyways saturday was the class BBQ. We had a fun time especially when the food cooked by Ryan, Terry, Me and Shanny was delicious :P. Okay la I only helped at times but when I did, the food tasted good :D. Gotta hand it to Ryan and Terry though, pretty good cooks! Then I was tasked to entertain everyone with my guitar. so I sang and sang until I got bored. I like covering Isa's song ABC 123 Doremi and Bad Romance.

alright 10am later: Swimming with Haaziq and Mizi. then from then theres no plans so we'll see what happens. i'll update soon!
oh well, gnite ppls! :D

The fail is in the air

I hope you guys love the new blog song. ITS SO F'ING AWESOME! The song just makes me feel like playing left4dead 2 or something. you know like blasting zombie heads with the guys, or slashing off their limbs with the katana. okay the reason why i'm being overly hostile towards anything supernatural is because I fell asleep on my bed around 11:30pm just now and my sleep got interrupted by a bad dream around 1:30am. I don't even remember what happened in the dream but it did interrupt my sleep and now here I am. tired, grumpy, half pissed and a little shocked. I haven't been getting enough sleep time these few days so it wouldn't be surprising if I see eyebags when I look in the mirror tmr. BAH.



Anyways let's talk about today shall we? I visited my grandfather's grave with my brother in the afternoon just now because it has been a while since i've been to his grave. I also visited my uncle's grave and my cousin's grave since I was there. It was pretty good to see that my uncle is maintaining the graves well especially for my cousin's one. I wanted to go to swee lee to check out for violins after that but then I realized that it was still a public holiday so its not open. Nothing much happened for today but I am tired... um somehow? I need to hit the gym soon, i've been slacking already :o. I'm also starting my "eat a meal every 3 hours" plan to gain weight. i've only been following it for the past 2 days so we'll give it some time and see if it works.

Mizi's gonna end his BMT on friday so that means I can see him more often after that :D. I'm gonna spend the night watching failblog videos on youtube. here i'll give show you guys some of the videos that made me laugh... a lot.



He/she created a new definition of 'kiss my ass AHHAHAHAHA



Ouch. No other comments. Just ouch.

alright time for me to cook up something cause im hungryyy. i'll update soon!
gnite ppls! :D

Violin Lessons!



Omg just listen to the violin at 1:08. It brings tears to my eyes... well not really, but you get the point. The scaling on the piano is wicked and the violin part at 1:08 just seals the deal! I'm still looking for a music school for my violin lessons. So far the cheapest i've gotten was $106 and the most expensive is $250. I wanted the $250 per month for 4 lessons but my mom said that it's a little expensive. Plus she wants me to use my money for my driving license. Argh. It's okay, i'll figure something out!

You know this is like the most cliche part of any movie where the devil sits on my left shoulder and try to taunt me into doing something stupid while the angel says noooo~, do the right thing. One part of me is saying "ask your sis for money, idiot." while the other part says "save your own money, don't trouble others". this is so tempting..... HAH. I've been wanting to play the violin since I was a small boy but i've always had the idea that violin is for rich people. I wish my grandfather was still alive so he could teach me how to play the violin for free. [and also how to speak better Portuguese :( ]

anyways I've already learned the correct technique for percussive tapping/chuckling thanks to tutorials on youtube and i've even added some spice to it. Instead of just 'karate chopping' the strings, I karate chop it while using my pick to hit the guitar. I'm careful not to hit it too hard because it'll scratch the guitar. so instead of it sounding like a plain chuck, I can switch it whenever I want to sound like a foot tap or a chuck :D. Improvised... insanity, okay lame -.-

BBQ just now to celebrate Aidil's younger sister's bday and it was fun. Played a lot of songs on the guitar with aidil, mizi, fai and fizz. We sounded like the bloody radio for 30 mins HAHA. It was cool okay, everyone was listening to us singing... chey. AHAHA. I wanna cover some songs soon with aidil.. aaah. I wanna make it a really good one this time. I can't imagine doing a dual cover of guitar and violin. OH MY GOSH! :D. I'm pretty sure that won't happen so soon because i'll be making more noise than music for the first few weeks of learning violin anyways.

Anyways i'd like to wish all my chinese friends a Happy Lunar New Year. Gong Xi Fa Cai ;). May you all get a lot of ang bao's for this year and may your new year bring much happiness and prosperity to your lives :D.
gnite ppls! :D

Believe yourself, shinjite.

Oh man, i don't feel so good tonight in so many ways. I'm having my last paper later so I can't wait to get it over and done with. Hello 2 months holiday! I'm probably not in the best mood for tonight so as you can see, i'm not so enthusiastic about the 2 months holiday.. for tonight anyways ahhaa! :D. there's not really much for me to say tonight but here's 2 songs that's stuck in my head for the night. The first one is a japanese song called Brave Heart while the second one is Hide from RED. I love red. I absolutely love how the verse builds up to the chorus for hide. amazing.





I dont understand the lyrics but thank goodness there is the power of internet and its capabilities. I just googled for the translated lyrics (for the jap song) and now atleast I know what the song is about. Oh and yes, i'm loving American Idol because Ellen's in it! :D. Who says she doesn't know a thing or two about music? She has been a great judge so far! Watch out for Andrew Garcia this season guys! I have a feeling that hes gonna go pretty far :) okay back to revision!
gnite ppls! :D
