don't dream it's over

i was in kfc with brendan and faye yesterday and this song was playing and i forgot how much i used to love this song. haha.

Six Pence None The Richer - Don't Dream It's Over


anyway i was out with ATG plus van minus angie. we watched curse of the golden flower. was ok. it was the company i enjoyed i guess.

like exactly 26 hours more till i go in so i'm quite certain this will be my last post for quite a while.

oh yea i have to make a correction to one of my entries i did about a week or more ago..the one about the songs personal jesus? yea i said that johnny cash was the first to sing that song but i was wrong. depeche mode was indeed the one who sang it first. johnny cash made a cover of it. he made this cd covering all these kinda songs and many ppl started to think that johnny cash started these songs first because like he's damn old and all. haha. confusing kid man. anyway i'm just happy depeche mode was the first to have sang personal jesus.

ok back to yesterday. here's a pic of us in starhubs after dinner.














i seem to be at a loss of things to write about anymore these few days..seems like i'm gonna fit very well in the army kind of mentality. haha. so i'll just put more songs and pictures today.

Metric - Combat Baby


Offspring - Spare Me The Details

i can't decide!

well well it's tue today and like in 3 days i'll be right where i'll be for the next two years. there's a feeling of like scary-ness and also anticipation. i'm sure it's not that bad. haha. anyways i'm kinda lazy to write stuff in here at this point of time. must spend more time away from the com and more outside yes? haha. gonna eat dinner later then go watch deathnote 2 although i've no idea what's it about..didn't watch deathnote 1 and plus bren told me the show sucks. oh well what the hell.

last fri the party at bren's house was awesome. i gotta get an xbox 360 too and play gears of war. we played from 11am on fri till 7am on sat and the game's still not over. epic game man. finished a bottle of scotch and puked my guts out (shan't do it again for like a year or something). played tower defence and managed to clear the 50 levels. talked alot of shit. and shaved our heads in the morning.

ok now this's the part i just put random songs and pictures up for fun.






Scissor Sisters - I Can't Decide





















New Order - Blue Monday





















Interpol - Slow Hands





















Radiohead - Karma Police











ok man tah-tah..adios..if i don't update before fri it means i'm gone to army already.

ciao!

hello mr 2007!

how'd you spent new year's eve? i countdowned in the toilet while i was showering. very anti-climax hoh.haha. came out from the bathroom to the tune of my neighbours shouting yaaaaaammmmm seeennnnggg!!! haha. well happy new year to you too! was chatting with all the other people on msn who didnt go out partaaying too.haha. my sis and my dad were watching LOTR in the hall and my dad and I were downing cognac mixed with sprite. didnt really feel like drinking that day.

my class friends wanted to go marina to watch the fireworks and countdown..sooo not my style.haha. i said i'll think about it but i already knew the answer and it was no. sorry guys! i just think it's lame. besides i really didnt feel like going out that day too. was kinda like in a contemplative mood that night.like the look out the window and watch cars passing by..looking at the stars and somehow derive some meaning from their existence. well yea something like that. i had this pretty lame idea about going for a run at like maybe 11.45 till 12.15..then i could say i ran into the new year.haha. that must be the lamest thing i've thought of this year..or rather last year. but ya at least for once i wanted to do something different on new year's eve you know. and that night i just really wanted to spend it alone. running alone by myself..with the wind blowing on my face..a time when i can be truly myself and discover myself. ok that sounds quite rubbishy. plus i don't really give much of a shit about the new year. it's just another day actually.

i was chatting with jj on msn and he asked me what my new year's resolution was and i was like..omg! i completely forgot about that! shows how much importance i place on the new year huh.haha.

i woke up the next morning to watch the rest of borat. i was watching the night before but i decided to stop and talk to rachel. if i had watched borat she would have been so bored while i was being entertained. whereas if i talked to rachel we would both be entertained.haha. it's nice talking to someone who's so random and easy..like you can say anything like that..right rachel??haha.

so yes the first few hours of my new year was spent watching borat and i think it's so-so only. it's not lousy but i wouldn't watch it again. and like i couldn't believe myself but i slept for like 4 hours after lunch..from 12 noon to 4pm. weird man not like i didnt have enough sleep. apparently i must have been drained or something and didnt even know it. so yea i awoke feeling quite unaccomplished with myself..didnt party didnt do nothing. super sloth. so i decided to go for a run! it's been a long time since i went for a long run and since i didnt carry out my plan from the night before i decided to do it that moment since i had nothing on anyway.

normally when i run i would go for some route that would kinda go one round so that i would end up back at home. so that means i would have to turn back halfway. this time i felt like going on and on..straight forward without turning back. my fitness now is obviously much much worse that last time so i knew i wouldnt make it far anyway. i took my ipod and my ez link card and set out on my little trip. i don't know why but these few days i just feel like i wanna be all on my own..like spent a week on a deserted island by myself. oh well.

i put on bloc party and scissor sisters to listen to and i ran and ran and ran. normally i would start at my place..follow the mrt line all the way to yck and loop back at yck road towards teacher's estate and come back by thomson road. this time i continued to follow the mrt line all the way to somewhere after lentor where i saw the turnoff to SLE and like the busstops i was running past kinda didnt have any more buses that could take me back home..like buses that would bring me to punggol and pasir ris.haha. so i had to turn back if i wanted to take a bus back. bloody hell as of 1st jan i'm an adult. so my bus fare was 87cents. sheesh.

oh and did i mention? i saw a gay couple making out under the SLE while i was running. gosh what's the world coming to. the weird thing was that they were young. they were wearing their uniforms..like sec 2 or 3..guess that's why they had to hide huh. and they were squating! haha must have been uncomfortable. but i guess they probably didnt feel anything in the heat of the moment.ha. didnt even see or hear me coming. then again it was like the most remote place on earth besides brendan's house.haha.

so yea that about sums up my first day of 2007.

my sister has been pestering me to listen to depeche mode. i finally caved in and i swear they are actually quite good. i found out that this marilyn manson song was actually originally done by depeche mode..which was originally sang by johnny cash.ha. i like.

Depeche Mode - Enjoy The Silence(Deviotional Tour)


Johnny Cash - Personal Jesus


Depeche Mode - Personal Jesus


Marilyn Manson - Personal Jesus


well you can hear how the song has been changed over the years. i know marilyn manson may sound like satanic and all to you but keep an open mind! haha. he does make good music i reckon.ha
