i've been secretly dating the girl in the picture for a year now. her name is Estrella. she is living in America and one day i'll migrate there after my army and we'll live the rest of lives together. we'll go to Walmart for grocery shopping and spend our weekend by the park for a family picnic. when the night comes i'll put our little girl, Haley, to bed. and when the sun reclaim it's throne, i'll go for a morning jog by the beach and come home in time to make breakfast for my beloved wifey and our little princess. and then our little girl will grow up to be a great singer and we'll be so proud of her. oh, and we'll go to church every sunday morning together.

i'm a big fan of lomography and beautiful moments like this one. But anyways, good evening to you readers. how's your day? I hoped you had a good one even if you didn't managed to say good morning to the sun. I had a great day today if you would like to know. I woke up really late for rehearsal for LRM but it was all good when i got there. Friendly people greeted me with big wide smilesss that go cheeeeeeze. I'm cranky. I know. After which headed to town with E. We were pretty aimless but i guess nothing beats each other's company :) Ate a footlong subway which made me happy. Then we just walked around for the rest of the day. We met Ben and both of em came over to practise for DND. After they left, i took a nap at like 10pm and i just woke up. Timecheck: 1.18am. I'm feeling hungry.
E. :)
it's a happy day but i can't say for it tomorrow because i've got nothing on. Well i shall still make it a happy day because it's our choice and perspective that determines the day.

| the biggest thing. |
[Mar. 23rd, 2009|01:33 am] |
was talking to Sally & Erika about COLDPLAY. OMG. i'm pretty sure i'm not like a big fan of it but hearing Sally talk got me so excited ahhhh. it's like the biggest hit in town. Their songs are pretty normal but they do have at least one song from the album that's like the "national anthemn" kind of song where it liberates the music world with the perfect guitar riff or melody line.
You gotta watch this.
oh man, 5:24 got my goosebumps all up you know. You should just give it a watch. I wanna go i wanna go i wanna go. Even benedict is going despite sitting alone. But i think it doesn't really matter, you're not gonna be alone with all the homegrown fans singing their songs with their hearts abandoned.

it's a thrill i can't shake. yeah i know we've been writing a mistake and it's hard to erase the feelings i've drawn. I was caught in an awkward silence, broken down by the sound of your prelude that you played to open our symphony. I've been sleeping with the sunrise watching hours pass away, incidentally i'm just waiting for the dusk to kill the day. But now i'm waiting for your call, while i bang on this piano like you care at all.
So i'll waste these words for a while but i'll be holding onto you forever. And this is where my heart is cold and torn as i hear the words you're saying tonight. I'm falling for it every single time.
As the roses dip their heads a little further to the ground, there's a season change and all the pinks and whites have turned to brown. Will we make it through the fall? Yeah, are we gonna make it through this fall? I'm trying, we're dying. I'm taken by your hope filled lines, they're well designed and dragging me along. I'll be waiting for this chance and i'll be gone.

this time we're not giving up let's make this last forever Screaming, "hallelujah" we'll make it last forever. Haley is so amazing. Her talent in singing is already phenomenal, with her playing guitar & keyboard makes her so beautiful. If i haven't already mention it enough, girls look really beautiful when they play the guitar and sing. Okay i shall stop swooning over her. hahahaha
Anyway, today was a pretty awesome day. I went for DND's rehearsal @ Mariott alone, and waiting and waiting definitely didn't help. However, the later part was really some crazy fun. hahaha. after the first run through, we had a break. So the other band, Gen & Sean & their other percussion dude came over and we kinda hanged out together with Claire & Chris. So everyone was like doing their thang, like between artistes and bands, hahahaha. Switching from one instrument to another. I love how we all hang out together. Sean is an awesome guitarist & Gen can really sing! i think we should really have an epic collaboration for DND 2009. Totally.

NUM was having a 1 for 1 sale so i bought it. NAISSSS RIGHT.

you're all i hoped i'd find in every single way. and everything i could give is everything you couldn't take. Cause nothing feels like home when you're a thousand miles away. this emptiness creeps in subtly and then the sorrow engulfs your vulnerable soul. slowly. and the hardest part of living is taking breaths to stay. we look to the sky and we know it's not mine anymore. the notes weep at the sound of your leaving footsteps. all alone, a dark cold night. wrapped yourself, you better hold on tight. i could just stay awake, just to hear your every breath. blow the candles out, i'm beginning to see the light. |

just look at the pic above, i don't know why but i've always got this ''dream'' of busking around Europe & travel from city to city. I'll make it happen after NS !! prolly go backpacking with E & maybe some others. My classmate, Jacintha, seemed to be really on for this idea too. this is so eggciting. Busk around the streets, stay in budget motels & hitching rides from kind strangers. Put behind that busy pace of life in this small lion city. Till then, start saving! i'm starting to like the song "LOVEBUG" alot by JB. Izak & myself are gonna be performing it on TPSU's annual DnD @ Marriott Hotel. Another gig. Thank God. It's such a sweet acoustic piece. maybe it applies to me now that's why heh.
have a listen at this link below!

hello peopleeeeee i'm backkkkkk after a crazily happening week! Monday to Wednesday was Rinku Chalet @ NSRCC which is a pretty huge resort! there were like 40plus of us that night. Man i can't believe it's over, just like that. But anyhow, yesterday was like a damn crazy night. Erii, Aaron, Ben Muthusalam, Jianrong, Macson, Charmaine, Izak & Myself hanged out at Timbre, O School ! & the best part, we performed with Sara at TIMBRE ! It seriously felt like a dream. We did Paramore's Pressure and i'll upload the pics when Jianrong sends them. I must contain the joy and excitement for the next post! Meanwhile.
( Click here for RINKU CHALET pics! )

I'm so thankful for everything that's happening in my life. 2009 is insane. And doing all these shows at so many places with Eri, i cannot ask for anything more. I'm working my way towards being a fulltime musician. And i'm gonna get Alvin from 53A to teach me guitar. And ZOUK ACTUALLY WANTED US TO PLAY at their club!! but sadly Eri;s gonna be away so i doubt we will be playing. Still, it's just so awesome about all these gigs and shows that we're getting. yay. And we'll be having an audition at Ben & Jerry's next fri to perform at their dempsey outlet. Keep us in prayer! :)

hey everyone, how's it going. Nature hasn't been on the friendly side with the insane downpour and the "lightning strikes Merlion" incident that happened. The monsoon caught us off guard and we're all now victims of its destruction. However, on a lighter note, 4 individuals has decided to come together & form an organization what's to be known as, the ATOM. Do not fear. It's not an illegal organization or what sort, but a team of astonishing individuals, skilled in the art of, Magic.
the ATOM is ( from left to right, ) : Cetron, A.T, Fabian, Mac.
Each with their own unique specialities and strength, not to outdo one another, but a team effort to bring out the best of what each of them can do and present it to the public. The art of illusion in the mordern day. That's what the ATOM is doing. If you wanna get them to do shows at a birthday party or some event that you're hosting, feel free to drop them an email at th3.atom@gmail.com or you can pay a visit to alvinterrence.blogspot.com & magicatom.blogspot.com
featuring A.T , founder of ATOM. & of course he's my good friend. haha
please support ATOM !
PS: credits to photographer which is another of my very good friend that's gonna do free photoshoot for Erika, Izak & me. his name is Jianrong. :D
