You're the typical PRC scholar!
You score 98+ for Maths and you don't understand the purpose of GP lessons (mainly cos you can never pass it). Oh, and you have no life, other than your fellow PRC mates. Well, too bad, harhar...

I don't even know what PRC is and I don't care. :)

Ok, I shall take this opportunity to blog. Heh. Its been a while since I've updated the shit. Lets get down babeh.

Its certainly enlightening for me to watch John Petrucci's Rock Discipline again. A lot of things that I have missed out man like in the speed and accuracy section. I've always thought that playing triplets is kinda difficult but after watching, using his technique, its quite simple after all. Heh.

Well anyways, the gig was an OK gig except that the men in blue (policemen) or the CC rather ruin the whole thingy. The gig had to stop at 7:30 in the evening. Never have I been to a Metal gig that ended that early man. Anyways, the bands were great. Syed's band received a lot of praises. Yeh you guys were great man. It was a tiring Sunday. Had to went out of the house at around 11:30 to meet up with Dead Eternity for their set up and shit. Went home at 9+. Photos are err... somewhere in internet land. I've misplaced the addys. oh well.

Finally, another weekend is upon us. Boleh rest. Huhrurhr. Saturday's my English Paper 1 Mock Examination. Shall write a good compo.

Ok, I've been selected to enter this competition for some young inventors thingy. My 'Light Keyboard' that I'll be submitting this year for my Os'. Hurhurhr. Had to write a lot of stuff down. 50 000 characters. around what.. 10 000+ words. Sigh. And if I am going to be shortlisted, I'll have to do a 5-minute speech. I am not that of a good talker mannn. =P I can't talk properly. I tend to stutter and mispronounce some words. bahhumbug.

Hi John,

I read that in high school you practiced at least 6 hours a day. I'm sure you probably played less on some days but that's still a huge amount of time. How did you manage to keep your grades up while playing so much guitar?

I'd want to go to sleep after playing that much and not even think about studying so I'm wondering how the John Man can do this.

Thanks,

Mike

John Petrucci:

I would always break up my practice sessions throughout the day, leaving plenty of time to eat, sleep and study.

Which leaves to show. That I am so disorganised. Wahahaha.

I don't study that much nowadays. Wanna enjoy man. Hur? Hah. Sigh bad holiday.

Into The Storm..

The pit was quite boring just now with just techno flying around. Manage to get some DT into my head through their radios. Got to listen to Glass Prison and Honor Thy Father. Lol. By that time, chicks were already coming in. But I didn't care. Fuck off. Who cares. Matellllll! Everyone was bugging me to change to RNB or something. Jangan tukar lah. Black metal dah marah lah. Fuck you lah. Irritating sial. Finally I gave way for them lah. Listen to all the crappy music you want. I have my discman cheebye. Of course I didn't say that lah. Anyway, chicks namely Fadilah and Rahayu. But nah not my type mannnn. Hahaha. Too bitchy man. Extremely bitchy lahhh. Minah lahhhh. Instead of behaving like some mat with the other mats around at the pit, I went jalan2 with a friend of mine around east coast listening to some heavy metalllll. Wah even got I am the Viking. hehe. Aiyah mendak lah brapa banyak kali ako dah dgr. Bla bla.

However the most happening point of the pit was the storm. Oh yes. My predictions were right. While I was sitting alone away from the pit, saw some lightnings to the south. Indonesia was probably having some monsoon storm. 4 hours later, it struck us. I was with 5 other friends inside a tent. The weather was calm at first, then there were strong winds sial. The tent was rocking. Everyone was going Woahhhhh Woahhhhhh!! "Belum lagi hujan sial" Luckily some of my friends were prepared, sheltered the pondok thingy. Btw, it was 4 in the morning so it was very cold you knowww. hurhruhru. sorry for my language ah no story telling today. Malas ahhh. Then, there was a sudden downpour.. drizzling then sial ahhh WOOSH.. HEAVY RAINS SIAL + STRONG WINDS. The Tent wasn't waterproof. We were like drenched inside. The Tent was rocking, the guys were playing jazz music to calm our nerves on the radio. Hahahah. Then lightning. Gosh. We were surrounded by trees. Then, some help was on the way, bags were being carried out of the tents, into the pondok. Heh. Everyone was retreated. Some were drunk. I was very much alive. Whoa, runn and all that shit. RUNNNNN!!

The day before..

One of the most boring excursions ever. Not only that, one of the most tiring. Actuallay, its not THAT boring. Just that my friends wanna leave early which makes it boring. Well in a way. Our class went to the Career 2004 Exhibition held at Suntec. A lot of people. Yup. A lot of stalls and shit. Some of the prominent organisations or names in Singapore in various sectors which includes education and businesses held a massive displays of towers and large balloons which can be seen from anywhere in the hall. Whoa. Got a lot of pamphlets and stuff.. and thats about it.

We had to go home by OURSELVES. I was like going WTF. The bus couldn't get us back to school for some unknown reasons. Hur. So I head back home with my classmates of whom I cannot even communicate with. Haha. Every word that comes out of my mouth is classified as 'crap', 'merepek and 'lame'. What do they care? (save some of my closer friends amongst the group which includes Sulaiman) Chicks, cigs, party and other lame ass crap which will not get you anywhere in the future except for maybe a sore dick, a bad reputation and/or a shorter life span.

I was so relieved when I reached home. Phew. Was going jamming later on that day so I blast my amplifiers for some last minute revision shit.

Met up with my mates at Bedok Interchange. Sulaiman, the vox, had to go to some wedding reception so.. yeh he was unable to jam with us which leaves me, Sabri, Rahman and Raszman. Sabri and Rahman brought along their newly bought instruments. I felt so left out. =/

Took a taxi. Matao, except for me. Short of cash. hahaha. Went to BMC Wee Lee, also known as BMC Apek Tempang. A surpise intervention with Ifran who was gonna jam with his band Deathsynth. Hahaha. He was jamming at the opposite room.

We started off with our original "Tak Pernah Ku Menduga" after 20 minutes of sound check. Rahman was having some amp problems. Sabri was playing with his effects. I was jamming some rock shit with Raszman. Hahaha. After that we played Kisah Cinta Yana, also our original but was incomplete, forgot the whole solo thing. Hahhaa. After that err, we played Merinduimu. Also incomplete if I am not wrong. Then I tried jamming Jazz Songs with Raszman. Hahahah. It was fun man. The whole jam session. We then covered "Sephia" by Sheila on 7. Stopped midway cause we forgot the rest of the song. I was too tired that I forgot the rudimentary of all chords, the basic C chord. Everyone was going WTF. Hahah. Then I remembered us playing Master of Puppets by Metallica, which we played extra super fast as always. Raszman almost lost his cap for headbanging too hard while banging his drums. Sounded funny cos its been a while since we jammed that song. Then we played Crawling in the Dark by Hoobastank. Was almost perfect not for the brief confusion Rahman and Sabri had during the harmonics solo in the midst of playing. After that we played two Iron Maiden covers.. Hallowed be Thy Name and The Trooper. I played an extra long solo for HBTN. Hahahah. Forgot ah. The Trooper was perfect. Then off to some individual shit. Oh yes, I switched guitars before jamming the Maiden songs. The pickups for the neck was TOO LOW. I can't hear shit wile I was soloing. Much better after which as the other guitar had the neck pickup much higher.

Apek Tempang made a surprise appearance after coming back from the Hospital. Hahaha. Raszman asked, "Pek, tak turun Geylang kah?" All of us were laughing out loud as we packed our stuffs. Raszman and the Tempang man had some crap conversations. Hahaha.

Well that was the end of our jamming session. I would have to say that it was an OK session. We forgot to jam Gurauan Di Antara Kita, our original but it was ok. Something was still amiss with Sulaiman's absence. Sigh. Well, hope to have another great jam session another time. Hopefully by the next 2 weeks. Raszman? =D

Anyway, we took a bus home. We weren't walking home like we usually do because of the burdens Rahman and Sabri had to carry. Dropped off at Bedok Interchange with Raszman. Then, he wanna blanja me LAN gaming so we played Warcraft III and Medal of Honor for 1 hour. Hahahah. Crazy time. I went home after that. I ate two blueberry waffles for I was feeling ravenous.

Today..

Woke up at 8am. Slept at 11 and woke up again at 2. Too tired. My sis wanted to "ajak" me to go to the exhibition again but nah. Too tired ahh. Hurhuhr. Not to mention, a short on cash.

Finally, a new weekend is upon us. woohoo.

Going out with a few mo, waiting for me mates. They went to get some N Level Cert or something like that. Hahaha. Hey I got a B$ actually for English and a B3 for Maths. Dunno Ahjhhh.. stupid addition. An A2 was good enough sia. But nevermind, I got the second highest for English in class and 1 out of the two passes in the class for the Comprehension test. Yup which means around 37 failures? Was shocked too, `twi was glad. Still, need to work harder, cause the marks I got were pathetic.

Heh, got confronted by my Engrish teacher for not attending the Enrichment course. "You'll get it from me tomorrow". Yeah right. Like what are you gonna do? Detention? I can just studyyyy. Heh. Why the hell am I feeling this way? Its not me. Its not me at all. I hate studying. Eh I like. I hate. I like lah. hate lahh. like lahh. hate. like. ok.

Geography test was A-OK just now. All those of which I have studied only came out 45% of the paper. I was doing some intensive logical thinking for the 55%. Hope I'll get an A1. Hahaha. Just a class test anyway. I hope this will go into my CA marks. Haiyah. Don't get your hopes high lahhh.

Saw the school's dentist just now. Everone was going WOOHOOO. OH MY GOD!! THAT HAS GOT TO BE THE MOST HOTTEST DENTIST I HAVE EVER SEENNNN while I was helplessly staring at her wiggling posterior.

I am the crazy man. Everyone in class looks as if that I am a retard or something. When I laugh at something which I find funny, they will say that I am crazy or something. When they laugh, everyone laughs with them. The things they laugh at;lame, pathetic, non-funny. Maybe there is something called 'Ethical Laughter'.

Balls to you,
