The Fine Line Between Understanding & Trying To Understand
goodvibrations was a hot & sweaty affair. with body odour of strangers piercing through your nostrils might just land you in ICU. thank god the music & atmosphere was great. even though segments of it i was caught stoned as i've no idea how to move to the sounds of hip-hop. the only thing i could do is of course, swing my hands back & forth & follow along with the crowd. for a moment it felt like i'm in one of G-Unit's videoclip. seeing Cut Copy play Saturday live is just euphoric. i am david sparkle did sparkle. nosferatu makes me nervous just rocks. even made a convert of my friend who went along with the free ticket. Beastie Boys, well, did made me & the boys do some robotic moves which i am ashamed of when i think about it. how can you blame me when they played Intergalactic? but but but, the highlight of the gig was shaking hands & taking a pic with 1 of asia's beautiful women...
CAMELIA!!!! *insert dizzy schoolgirl shriek*
bloody hell, this woman is so hot i couldn't breathe for a second. let alone look her in the eye. serious. ok i shouldn't elaborate more or else the ma'am would nag hahaha. she looks tall in magazines don't you think?
alright, will post some gig photos of the beastie boys, jurassic 5 and what have you when i get hold of them. to think of it, any of you could get in for free. the many back entrances of fort canning weren't manned. 3 of my friends barged in and straight away as we malays usually say "step macam paham".

You've Got Mail
Congratulations! You have won a pair of tickets for the Good Vibrations Festival 2007 this Monday on the 19th February, 4pm at Fort Canning Park.
thing is, the only 2 people who're usually by default i intend to go with when it comes to gigs aren't available. the ma'am is over in KL & the closet mat hiphop turned retro is on guard duty. such unforgiving circumstances aye.

10 Years & The Reality Check
a former secondary school dude classmate of mine is getting hitched this saturday. i'm so happy for him. such a soft spoken & nice chap who never fails to "lobang" me during soccer matches right after school hours back then. the days where we'd play soccer till late & told our parents we had remedial classes. and of course the usual sunday morning meet-up at the street soccer court. that was then & i bumped into him a couple of months back & he's still the same old moustached guy i know. weddings of friends too make you realise that you're indeed growing up and make you think about the future even more.
and a postcard arrived today. a wedding invitation. this time, a former girl classmate getting hitched next month. oh yes i'll be there. how could anyone say no to nasi minyak with ayam masak merah? i can't wait to see the former secondary school kids gathered during that day and just talk about the days we had together in that classroom we shared for 5 years. the quarrels, the peace treaties, the laugh-at-each-other-because-i-think-you're-more-kental-than-me moments, the raya outings etc etc. how i miss these people. and till this very day, i've known these guys & girls for 10 years. thanks to a mindful former classmate who sms-ed everyone who graced class 1E back in 1997. definitely, and i really mean definitely, these people are on top of my future wedding guestlist.
seeing my own friends get married somehow gives me that fuzzy feeling inside. for everyone looks forward to what some may deem the happiest day of their lives. don't get me wrong, i'm in no hurry to make a trip down to ROMM to register my marriage or anything. that's like the last thing on my mind. just that for now looking for a stable career and earning a decent living is on top of the list. i would not in any way let my significant other just eat maggi everyday you know. for she deserves much better than that. perhaps waffles with chocolate fondue or nasi goreng with extra ikan bilis. hey, fate is in god's hands. then again, as stubborn as it may sound, i only want her to share with me, my little corner of the world. yes you, the one who sent me the song of the last 6 words of the previous line.
