sweet surprise

Photo of the day…

Monday, 7ners held a surprise party for Nad at Cash Studio. I’m glad that everything went smoothly after all the planning and organising. She knew we were sort of giving her a surprise as in we weren’t letting her know where we were going for dinner and all coz goondu Junwei accidentally sms-ed her when the sms was meant for Per. But she didn’t know we were going to surprise her at the ktv. She really thought I had to pick something up for Sis at Chinatown.

I was still kinda worried that she would wonder how come we were meeting so early when all we’re having is dinner. So at the last moment, I sort of covered that up saying that PK needed to go home early or something so we’re having an early dinner. Knowing Nad isn’t easily fooled, was trying to be really careful with my words. Praying hard that JW hadn’t unknowingly let out our secret. By the way, he almost did when Per called him a few days ago. He said “Chinatown” out loud and when Per tried to shush him, he did a bad job of trying to cover up his mistake. -_-|||

I was telling Per that maybe what made my little “show” more believable was the fact that I got lost. Went to Apollo Centre only once and I’m the kind who needs to take notice of the way there or else I’ll get lost next time. That time when I went with Sis and Per, Sis led the way and I was just following so I didn’t really take notice of the route there. Ehz…I’m just bad with directions.

Walked up to the ktv door. Opened it. SURPRISE!!!

Everybody had a fun time. Singing all those English songs which were popular back when we were in secondary school. Some of us singing random Mandarin songs. Hurhur…me “forcing” Per to sing NEWSニッポン and 希望～Yell～ with me. :rofl:

Didn’t want to leave so we ditched our plans of having dinner at Kenny Rogers in Marina. Anyway, CJ said there was a Swensens at Chinatown Point. Haha…coz of Sis’s member card, we can extend ktv hours for free if the room is not booked after us.

After dinner at Swensens, Per and I met Juliah at City Hall. Talked for awhile before going home just in time to catch the results for SuperBand. Woohoo! Lucify managed to get in the first round. They have always been on the rather “dangerous” side so it was good to have a change.

I keep feeling that these few days seem to be a dream. This very surreal feeling? Like I can’t have a firm grasp of what I’m doing. I end up asking myself at the end of each day “what the hell have you been doing?” Everything seems to be moving too fast. Or am I the one who’s too slow?

she’s the man

Gonna do a little backtrack here. Back to Sunday.

Was supposed to go down to Orchard to be at the D’J Party. Japanese inspired dressing – black tee, skirt, long black socks, newsboy cap. Hah. Finally wore the black newsboy cap. It was sitting in my cupboard for so long with the tags still uncut.

While waiting for Per, went to Kino to get the mags. Proceeded to the second floor’s seating to wait. Got a few things settled while waiting. Replied to sms-es. Called up Cash Studio to book a place for Monday. Wait. Wait. Wait. It was one long wait. I was even wondering whether the Furla salespeople wondered how come this (strangely) dressed girl has been there for so long. Good thing I wore the cap. It gave me the privacy I needed when I didn’t want to have to see people looking at me.

Per finally arrived. Hallelujah! Went to get dinner since I calculated that we still had time to eat before the last band which I wanted to see most. Omu rice for dinner. :heart:

Walked over to the Youth Park. Uh oh. Everyone’s leaving. People are taking down the banners. But it’s only 8.30pm!!! I checked online the night before and the last band’s at 9.40pm. What’s going on?!

Since it was so obvious that we missed it, we decided to catch a movie instead. Da Vinci Code’s closing soon and we still haven’t caught it. Even Shige’s parents have watched it! Unfortunately, tickets for the timing we wanted were sold out and the next time slot was too late so we settled for something else. “She’s The Man“.

The movie was hilarious! Yea…can’t really go wrong with chick flicks.

After the movie, met Sis back at the 24-hour Mac which was rather packed. Soccer somehow unites all the guys. The tv in Mac was tuned to the World Cup matches. It’s so funny to see everyone just stand up and yell “GOAL!” in unison. Anyway, we called Yew Seng to join us for supper and spent a few hours there until Dad called to hurry us home. 

Sis borrowed my digicam so I couldn’t take a photo of Per and I…

one night only

by

Coolest tattoo in town…

Haha, just kidding. That’s just the stamp from the i-weekly birthday bash held yesterday at Sentosa.

Scream! Make some noise! Jump around like never before. All for one night, let your hair down and unleash that crazed fan in you.

As the concert began, I couldn’t switch myself to the “feel high” mode. I was beginning to really believe that maybe I’ve passed that phase. I was proven wrong by the time Qi:Nobe performed. Then, the moment I was waiting for came. Lucify performed the song they performed for the revival round of SuperBand, Energy and 小猪’s “一起走吧”. By then, I was jumping up and down and screaming the lyrics.

Omg. And Kel was wearing his cap AGAIN. 超かっこいい!!! :woot:

Let me try to summarise the whole evening in this way:

Number of 帅哥s: 5
1) 洪俊扬 – Aiyah, can’t deny it lahz. He is 帅。Oh, but he isn’t that tall either.
2) D from JuzB – Malay 帅哥。
3) Bryan aka Brods 弟弟 from Brods
4) Andy from Soul – Actually the whole of Soul looked good with their silver and black outfits. I know Per is going to say that Andy looks like Arnold Schwerzenegger. AND WHEN DID I SAY I AM ISHI’S FAN?! I just said he looked good in the beginning of SuperBand. Per grabbed my hand and started waving it while screaming for Ishi’s attention. -_-|||
5) (Uncle) Kel from Lucify – Just coz he was wearing his cap which made him looked good. Aiyoh…please don’t let your head swell just coz I said you’re 帅 horz. It’s not permanent. Oopz…now, did I just burst your bubble? Hahaha…

Number of cute guys: 1
1) Tank – 帅 but in a different way. Smiles a lot and got that boyish charm.
Hurhur…Per is going to strangle me coz I didn’t mention anyone from 迷路兵…

Number of Massu lookalikes: 2
1) Awi from Soul – His pearly whites should score him a toothpaste endorsement. Throughout Soul’s performance, he was just grinning from end to end. Can’t understand what he’s so happy about. Maybe he’s taking the same type of happy pills as Massu…
2) Tank – Another guy who smiled A LOT.

Number of Rain lookalikes: 1
1) 伍洛毅 – One of the hosts for the concert. He does look a little like korean superstar, Rain.

Number of sound system screw-ups (that pissed me off): 4
1) 馒头’s bassist – I think the mic for his bass wasn’t working properly at one point?
2) Nic from 迷路兵 – No sound from his mic.
3) Yanto from Qi:Nobe – His problem was during sound check. Mic for his instrument wasn’t working.
4) Misaki from Lucify – No sound from his mic. WTH. Couldn’t hear his rap lorz. The sound crew ought to be shot. :glare:

Number of lip-synchers: 1
1) 潘嘉丽 – We’re all guessing she wasn’t singing live…

Number of irritating hosts: 1
1) 伍洛毅 – This one wanted to share the limelight with the artistes. Tried to act cool and made everyone call him “Rain”. Please lorz…try harder next time. Oh wait, don’t even try at all. *rolls eyes*

Number of performers who cried: 1
1) Renfred – From Campus Superstar fame. We were wondering whether he teared coz he was upset when the crowd didn’t pay attention to him and started screaming for Qi:Nobe coz they were getting ready behind while the hosts were asking Renfred some questions. Later we concluded that he teared coz of the smoke which might have irritated his eyes.

Number of times the (stupid) smoke-machine expelled smoke: countless
Nothing to say except the smoke STINKS! Left me gasping for air when it kept expelling smoke during Lucify’s performance. Irritating. Made it hard to see who’s performing on stage.

Not going to post up any photos coz the quality are all lousy. Blurry and all blah.

Cost of ticket: $2
Cost of entrance to Sentosa: $3
Cost to see Per get all high: Priceless

Haha…quite shocking actually. Per was like screaming for everybody and anybody.

nad’s 21st

by

8th June – Nad’s birthday. お誕生日おめでとう!!! Recently, I’ve been very slackish on birthdays and all. I never post my birthday wishes on time on my blog. Anyhow, I hope you had a wonderful birthday.

My mind is now battling between sleep and actually going through the day’s happenings here. The latter is losing though. I think I should just go sleep. :sleep:

Ah, maybe before I go… Once again, NewS has taken over my desktop. Massu~~~ :love: Rin-chan actually refers to Massu as my lover boy. Hahaha…she’s so cute. :heart:

attack (back)

Went to watch that FOCUS First Cuts movie we got free tickets for. “Love Story”. This is one movie that for once I can’t figure out. But I did tell Sis that films that make you scratch your head the most are usually the ones that are rated the best and have won awards.

The only remotely possible conclusion I can come up with for the movie is how the question, “what is love?” is being made the focus. A writer who claims to write love stories lives his life in a mixture of make-believe and reality. Him battling with his inner demons, struggling to separate fact from fiction and vice versa. Getting so confused and tormented by his own thoughts.

The above paragraph is my interpretation of the movie. Really want to know the real meaning behind it. *sigh*

Oh, the title for the entry…the movie has nothing to do with it. Coz Sis was looking through the comments left on the SuperBand blog for Lucify. She came across this rather mean one and started reading it out to me. Got me a little agitated but I’m smart not to leave a reply to that comment there. I’m going to leave it here. Coz this is MY blog. Everything here goes according to MY wishes, MY fancy, MY terms.

So…a person going by the pseudonym of “Grossed out” left 2 nasty comments. The second one read…

“Hmmm… lets see… Are you better off by leaving good comments on the band you like? Dude, grow up. Heard they are imitating the Jap band Alice nine right? OMG!!! Stop disgracing yourselves pucified!!! Thinking that by dressing like a bunch of shit heads and rambling like lunatics can get you the title of a super band? Lets see… NOT IN A MILLION YEARS.”

Now, I really cannot understand why people have so much time and energy to waste on leaving nasty messages for a band they so obviously hate. I guess the person must be really naive to think that by doing so, maybe fans will start to question their liking for the band. Have you heard of reverse psychology? Your nasty comments only make fans grow stronger, their love for the band deeper. And you’re obviously digging your own grave here. If fans were to find out who you are…all I can say is good luck manz. I really want to say that you’re the one who needs to grow up, fancy all the name-calling and vulgarities. But this time, I’m going to prove to you…so you say we need to grow up? You think we’re juvenile? Fine. Shall show you how juvenile I can be. Two words. FUCK OFF. 

finally out

by

夏日风 is out!!! WOOHOO! Finally manz! I bet their comments board is flooded with comments. Haha…even if they get through, their comments board will still be flooded with comments. It’s just a matter of type of comment.

Since Sis went to tell Kel, I have nothing to lose now. My image is already gone. *laughs madly* I was going “UNCLE KEL! UNCLE KEL!” at the tv screen when he appeared. Coz he looked good with the cap. I :heart: newsboy caps. I have 3…though I seldom wear them now. His was the squarish type.

I got distracted. Continued working on the layout. Sliced the images and all. Then I got distracted with other things so I guess it won’t be up today. Probably in a few days time.

normal person

by

Just read Nino’s Jweb entry at Binan no Nikki. He expressed his wish to watch his own movie as a normal audience. Like a normal person going to watch a movie… That’s cool. Watching your own performance from the angle of a normal person then deciding whether you did a good job or not.

Reminds me of how Sly went to the SuperBand recording to support Lucify. Going there with a friend status to support his friends. Not wanting to attract attention to himself, he sat at the second level. Who knew, the fans readily pointed out his “hiding” place. Hahaha…I can just imagine him cringing and having the -_-||| feeling. *sigh* But that’s the downside of being a star. You sort of lose your privacy. It’s like suddenly everyone’s interested in the little things you do. I bet the media will even be interested as to how one brushes his teeth.

Ah. The bathroom calls me…

japanese artiste coming to town

by

Argh. Aikawa Nanase is coming to Singapore for some Singapore Arts Festival activity at Fort Canning but it’s not free admission. Damnit. $25. I’m not going to pay that much just to see her. It’s a programme with other artistes as well. Not that I’m a big fan of hers but at least she’s a Japanese artiste whom I know of. :glare:

Went to the airport to keep Per company as she waited for her parents to arrive home. Her mum gave her the wrong info so she was there too early. We had dinner at Pasta Fresca. I was a tad disappointed coz the pasta was just so-so.

Nothing much to blog about now. Bloop bloop bloop…*bounces away*

the mm connection

by

MM as in Morning Musume.

I was asked to do this first.

See the connection? If you don’t…*psst…h-a-i-r*

So Sis went round sending it to people. And I got the second request. From Misaki.

Somehow, I feel this one was done much better. I don’t know from where I dug out that much patience working on it at 4am in the morning. You know, I really should spend that much time on a layout. This Berryz Koubou one wasn’t done nicely. The blending seems to be quite odd. :glare:

I just watched 2 AAA lives for their new song “ハリケーン・リリ，ボストン・マリ”. I couldn’t help but think that if only 夏日风 were half as good, maybe they would stand a chance. I remember the judges saying that their dance seemed to be out-of-place and not nicely choreographed. Maybe they should learn a thing or two from AAA. AAA’s dance moves aren’t too complicated but they still leave a powerful impact as a youth group. They probably make the older generation go “あぁ～～良いな。。。青春～～”

I don’t like Shinjiro’s look in the new song though. I still like his look from “Dragon Fire”…

Almost forgot…it’s Raynor’s birthday! お誕生日おめでとう!!!Â
