Went for the All American Reject's gig at the Nokia Phone 5800 launch party on Friday. Went with Xinyi earlier and queued from around 7 plus. Waited for Pea and Eunice to cab down after CCA. Waited till 8 plus to get in. It was really exciting. Oh and before getting in, we saw a baby lizard go into the lady behind us's bag. We said nothing. Lol.

Then waited for the gig to start, some beatboxing going on before that, quite cool but i still like the one before BLG's gig during Nike Human Race. They played like about 5 songs for 20 mins only, disappointing but still had fun. Xinyi, Eunice and Pea all got picks. I almost got it expect for that a.hole who stepped on my bloody fingers just to get the pick. I was so pissed i just turned around and rolled my eyes at his friend. Argh. But doesn't matter, i would prefer a BLG pick. And AAR's pick is like hello kitty on one side! LOL.

My pictures are all kinda screwed cause i kinda focused on enjoying the gig rather than taking pics after that.

i like the bottle of water they gave. so nice and stripey

the stage. quite unique

muttons! blur. argh. they both moved too much

AAR! before going on stage

tyson.

nick. stupid bar was blocking him in my picture

dunno who.

i couldn't even get a decent shot of mike/guitarist or chris/drummer cause the the drummer was right at the back of the stage, no one could see him and mike was to the other side of the stage and i was standing at the other end. Thank goodness for videos (:

oh and me and vanessa's doing sound for syf. Ever since that Norah lady came to train the cast today, i think there's hope again

"Slumdog Millionaire" is the story of Jamal Malik, an 18 year-old orphan from the slums of Mumbai, who is about to experience the biggest day of his life. With the whole nation watching, he is just one question away from winning a staggering 20 million rupees on India's "Who Wants to be a Millionaire?"
But when the show breaks for the night, police arrest him on suspicion of cheating; how could a street kid know so much? Desperate to prove his innocence, Jamal tells the story of his life in the slum where he and his brother grew up, of their adventures together on the road, of vicious encounters with local gangs, and of Latika, the girl he loved and lost. Each chapter of his story reveals the key to the answer to one of the game show's questions.
Intrigued by Jamal's story, the jaded Police Inspector begins to wonder what a young man with no apparent desire for riches is really doing on this game show?
When the new day dawns and Jamal returns to answer the final question, the Inspector and sixty million viewers are about to find out...

Really good movie. My first legally watched nc 16 movie though I felt nothing nc about it. Caught it with a few church friends. The transitions of how this 18 year old explained how he could answer each question and eventually win 20 million rupees which is about 5 million sgd was really good.

The story of this 3 young children from the slums all the way till they become adults is so sweet. All their hardships, all the unfairness in their lives, dangers etc. And in all this, the climax and tension is crazy. when you thought it was gonna end up like that, it turned out to be the exact opposite.

Spoiler alert
Like how I thought the host had actually gave him the answer to the second last question to winning 20 million, but in fact the host had tricked him cause the host wanted to remain as the only one in history to have turned from rags to riches.
And how when I thought jamal's older brother salim had tricked his own brother and backstabbed him, he actually was protecting him from all the dangers. His brother had kinda sacrificed himself for jamal just when I thought salim was betraying his brother.
I think the best part of the movie was when the question to 20 million was related back to the very front part about the three musketeers. The story's so beautifully crafted into how this 3 young kids from the slums had grew up and survived the madness of the world especially in India where it's like some third world country with stealing and corruption so common. It's not like those stories based on love blah blah blah but just from the innocence of 3 young kids growing up into a world of madness and their parents also were gone when they were so young.

Awesome movie, totally deserved all the awards it had won and I hope it gets as many oscars as it had been nominated for (: slu

On a side note, thanks everyone who wished me happy birthday. THANKS GUYS (:

TEDS is exactly the reason why my Sats are so freaking fun and enjoyable and add in drum lesson after that. How awesome can my Sat get?

Anyway, today at West Coast was quite enriching. G was reading people's minds again in one was the 2 drama master classes we had. It's really scary shit how he can do that. I guess he read right through everyone's today and i think he actually hit the spot on what was on my mind and what keeps me together. I think if he could do this more often, all of us would really know who we are and everything that worries us etc. Oe perhaps it's just me wanting to know more about myself. How ironic.

He told us from the way a person wears a watch, shoes, it all tells about something of that person. He said that the reason why i liked wearing my watch was not only cause of the colour, it was a case of it being unique rather which i have to agree.

What do i long for? I would really like to know the answer.

Then we did basketball percussion. Actually i didn't do that. Me, Rachel and Hakim were whacking the life out of the poor huge plastic container thing. It was really freaking fun, just creating beats out of nothing. G joined in as well, we played for quite some time. We probably drowned out the sounds made by the basketball. Lol. Seriously, the whole percussion using sticks on containers thing really was so loud, even in the outdoors, i can feel the effect it had on my ear drums.

We also kinda ran away from rain. We could totally see the line of the rain approaching towards us cause it came from the sea's side. Nasri and Rachel were like so amazed like they never seen this kinda thing before. So lame. And i found out Nasri was another Nikon fan! Yay. Finally got someone to fight with me against Sam and Julia, stupid Canon users.

Shijun and Nat also surprised me today. Nat popped a ring into my palm, i didn't quite get it at first until Shijun told me it was Jack Sparrow's ring, no wonder it looked so familiar. Omg, thanks you both! Really, that gift is awesome stuff (:

see that ring on his index finger?

this is the one (:

They headed back to G's place to chill after that. I was wishing so badly i could go, but cts still on till Tues so i had no choice. Boo. Never mind, i'm going to the store next week (:

Oh and i told myself i'll post about drums today. Shit, our days at Acad of Rock are numbered. Like only 4 more lessons! :( I'm bloody bloody sad, super sad. I'm gonna miss everything there, the people, the atmosphere, the enviroment. sigh.

Then today after lesson, outside where they had the mini stage they were playing Gun's & Roses's Sweet Child of Mine. 2 superb drummers, one awesome bassist and ultra good guitarist, put them together and the effect of that is a-m-a-z-i-n-g. The drums was freaking solid can! Then there was this bunch of like teenagers around 17, 18 years old. One look you know they're the type with emo hair, not the punkish type, plays electric guitar or bass type, then the girls with them all damn typical, well dressed up, make up and all. The guys were literally staring right into the school, haering the music so clearly. The only thing seperating them from one drummer was a piece of glass. It felt so good to be in that school at that time, with others admiring the the skills of the teachers, secretly hoping to wanna be like them.

I'M GONNA MISS ACADEMY OF ROCK SO BADLY! :(

That smile behind that face, that look in your eyes, what you think she was all about
Are you sure there's nothing more to that?

For once, i dunno what to write about.
i guess i'm just tired. Exams next week, omg, i hate even the thought of it

Today at west coast was fun as always. Ryan got an invitation to perform or something liddat at the Esplanade library. Danial's playing the piano while i'm playing the guit and a few singing. I'm quite scared i can't reach Ryan's expectations. I'll go prac really hard or something to be good at it, i love the Esplanade too much, my liking towards the Esplanade was thanks to WWRY. Damn, next month will be a year since i first met them. Time passes like some lightning bolt, there for a sec or 2 and gone forever after that. Shall do some 1st anniversary post on WWRY soon, i still miss the cast loads.

Learnt alot about what the school can or can't do which was pretty interesting on my way back home in the truck. Bea was asking questions, Rachel was really fascinated by her new found knowledge thanks to G and i was just listening while Rachel kept on saying she couldn't wait to tell her friend about the phone thing. But i felt quite bad actually, cause i mean like it was like i was getting a free ride home and like taking up a space in the truck when it was already pretty squeezy and my friends were getting squished up to go to the store to help while i was going to the store/home. Really, i felt quite bad.

I never liked this kinda owe ppl something feeling. As in like i feel mean/evil/guilty if say i go to my friend's place for dinner before tuition or like just go to their place and trouble them in some way or another though i know they don't mind cause i mean, they're my good friends but still, there's always that nagging i-feel-a-lil-guilty feeling. It's just the way i am, i guess.

Random note:
I MISS BLG. WHY CAN'T THEY COME TO SGP FASTER?

I'VE A DAMN BAD FEELING THEY'RE COMING CLOSE TO
O LEVELS PERIOD. Shit, i'm screwed.

i feel like a hero and you are my heroine
it's not complicated, i was so jaded
then you caught me off guard
now i'm running and screaming

About 1 1/2 weeks to 16! Yay. Finally i can officialy watch my first NC movie. But like as if i havent watched over that rating before.

It kinda sucks to have you birthday smack right in the middle of common tests week when people are so busy studying while you face 4 white walls, a thick stack of paper gathered together with prints/info on it aka textbook, thinking, 'wtf so this is how i celebrate my birthday'. Pff.

I WANT A SSUUURRRPPPRRRIIISSSEE. Boo. And no, i'm not hinting anything.

And the radio seriously is getting into the retarded Valentine's day mood. Muttons keep playing love songs, and somehow Handlebars just popped up into that category, who knows how. Valentine's day play love songs, Christmas period play xmas songs, why can't they think of something less cliche

FOB's finally over. Thank goodness or else i'll still be moaning over how i lost those stinkin pretty tickets. Rahh. Someone please brainwash me to forget about that incident ty.

I'm so happy i'm done with my first art board! Like 1 down, 7 more to go. Argh, stay positive.

Anyway here are some random photos from the past weekend. Was just playing around with my cam and found out there's a limited number of times you can press the shutter button before it's spoilt. Omg.

Drum school (: This is a rather bad pic
