Just start to chase your dreams
Up out your seats, make your body sway
Socialize, get down, let your soul lead the way
Shake it now, go ladies, it's a livin' dream
Love Life Live
Come play the game, our world is free
Do what you want but scream
HELLOOOOOOOOOOOO!
Before i begin blabbering, just wanna wish my dearest homeland, Singapore, a Happy 41st Birthday. It's been a long way, man.
Today's been quite a day. Being National Day, everywhere's so bloody crowded. Went to meet Samuel, Ernest and Chor, who are going to be my new potential band mates. All of them are younger than me and all 3 of them plays guitar. But Ernest is going to convert to bass for the sake of the band. Yes, we're are (probably) going to start a band playing alternative/punk/emo. Bands like Audioslave, Unwritten Law and The Juliana Theory. But ultimately, we gotta see how do each of us play on the session next saturday. It'll probably be the day where we will decide to go on or just stop there and forget bout it. But they seem like nice people. Haha. Maybe we should name the band "Kamikaze Fools". LOL. That's if we decide to work together...
We met at Macs, which was crowded as hell. So many kids, and kids i mean small lil children running around. Got loads of students mugging too. Went to get those nice Ty Beanie Babies. Probably the only thing that Macs has interest me to start collecting. Got the Red one and the Ronald one.
Red & Ronald
After that, took a train to town to meet Mama K, Mingxiao and Irma. Again, the train was also crowded as hell. We had snacks at NYDC@Heeren and it was generously sponsored by Mama K. LOL. You guys really gotta try the Irish Cream Mudpie. Heavenly sia.
We stayed and talked cock till 5+ then we spilt and i hang around Heeren. Was in HMV and notice those really really cool vinyls. There was this american dude who looks so much like a DJ testing out some vinyl records on the machine. COOL! How i wish i strike a lottery and walk in and tell the staff, Hey... Get me all the vinyl... One of each. LOL.
Later on, went to met my family and headed over to Plaza Sing and guess what?! It wasnt crowded at all. Everyone must have rushed home to watch NDP. LOL. Went to Yamaha and checked out the new Zildjian K Custom Hybrid Ride, which was created with Akira Jimbo.
Going for SBG$500 at Yamaha stores.
The sound is really very unique. 2 different ride sound in a single ride. Dark and Bright sound co-exsiting together. Really really cool. Plan to get it after getting myself a china, splash and probably a new drum set. Haha.
Met Calvin and he's really really a nice guy. He's got a band called "Genetic Habit" that plays a fusion of alternative and some other stuff. Check him out on this personal website. Really interesting dude.
I realise what you see in the heartlands and in town is 2 different thing. The sights is really quite astonishing.
Oh well, im shagged.
