I think I might be going ahead with Mechanical Engineering. Damn fortune teller. Well its his/her job anyway to diminish hope. Wait..

"Hope — it is the quintessential human delusion, simultaneously the source of your greatest strength and your greatest weakness."

There is no hope.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Now Listening: Porcupine Tree - Heartattack In a Lay By

Insomnia kicks in! I am in no mood for game playing and all that cos yes, I am just basically not in the mood. Mechanical Engineering.. wtf?

Managed to find the page and took the colour blindness test. Nothing more than just slides of different coloured plates.. you know those spots and numbers. :D It did hurt my eyes a bit after looking at all 24 plates. Thats about it though. There wasn't a need to submit anything. Man.. I really want to be in Biochem Tech. Please John Rambo, please help me. It has always been my ambition. To be a Scientist! Well in this case.. sorta heh. I will do my best! Arghh. But somehow all hope seem to diminish right before my eyes.

My sis went to this fortune teller a couple o' months back.

"Your brother will be a successful engineer."

Well its my choice to believe. Yeah right. I don't believe in fate.

Yup. I don't mind being in Mechanical Engineering in a Polytechnic. But not in ITE. Damnit. I'll be surrounded by those vehicle fanatics .. as if they can afford them. C'mon. I've been going through my Chemistry TYS in my free time for John Rambo's sake! I've been watching Discovery Channel during the err the science hour? lol. Anything and everything to do with science. I am going crazy. I will do anything and everything to get into that course. argh. If not, I'll never see weird organisms, I'll never get to know how cloning works, how to manufacture sea monkeys, how to .. wait. Can I be a Gene Engineer? :D:D:D:D:D:D WOO! GENETIC ENGINEERING I WANT I WANT! I'll work my ass off. Just give me a chance you stupid pieces a' shit. I blame the Government.

I've always been fascinated by science. I still remember when I was in Primary 2. It was boring! Pri 3 came. Boom science! Ah those were the days. The age of pencils and erasers. The era when I got close to this Japanese looking cute girl whom I've lost contact with. I miss her. :( I kissed her cheek. I think. I forgot. Ah crap. I did kiss some girl's cheek. Ah nvm. That was when, the 'Zeek' in me was born. I got fat in Primary 4. And then all the chicks just ran away from me.

The point is. Give me some balls. Er. Give me the big ass one and I'll roll with it and mow everyone else down with it. To Polytechnic. To University (Yeah right). Screw NS. I'll start a revolution! Well.. if I want to. I'll lead a happy life. And then I'll die.

I still think that I am in a dream that I can't wake up from. How can you tell? Seriously.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Now Listening: Candiria - The Nameless King

Since I am bored off my err socks? I shalt review [though super briefly] the G.O.M tribute gig I attended last Sunday and teh free Cd I got hurhur. I pity you foo's who didnt get it.

Ok so here it goes.

---

Scaphoids [Nahar: "Skapoids" melayu ye bang.] (Opening Band)

Great set I must say. Judging from their demo I got a year back or so.. lupa ahhh. +10 improvement. They did some Slayer covers. The vocalist needs more work on the high notes btw. hurhur.

Crowd Rating: 4/5
Showmanship: 2/5
Musicianship: 3/5
Sound: 3/5
Zeek Rating: 4/5

Showmanship: 3/5
Musicianship: 3/5
Sound: 4/5
Zeek Rating: 3/5
Overall Rating: 7/10 (A)

Dead Eternity (In Flames)

Showmanship: 4/5
Musicianship: 4/5
Sound: 3/5
Zeek Rating: 5/5
Overall Rating: 8.4/10 (A+)

Jana Cova (Arch Enemy)

An all-cover set. Hmm I only got to watch a part of their set cos I had to go pick myself up after being pummeled by the moshers during DE's set. Heh. Not a bad set I must say. But they could use a second guitarist. Neez did great though.

Crowd Rating: 4/5
Showmanship: 4.5/5
Musicianship: 3.5/5
Sound: 2/5
Zeek Rating: 3/5
Overall Rating: 6.8/10 (B)

Mirage (Iron Maiden)

Poor set. They did some not-so popular Iron Maiden covers for a change. +1 on that. But they didn't impress me at all. More practice babeh.

Crowd Rating: 2/5
Showmanship: 2/5
Musicianship: 1/5
Sound: 2/5
Zeek Rating: 0.5/5
Overall Rating: 3/10 (F)

Dethmute (The Haunted)

I don't think they did even cover a song by The Haunted. Boon (sound man) did some tweaks with the sound. Hidzir: "Eh mampat seyy". An ok-ok set. Didn't really pulled off the Fear Factory cover they did.

Crowd Rating: 3/5
Showmanship: 4/5
Musicianship: 4/5
Sound: 4/5
Zeek Rating: 2/5
Overall Rating: 6.8/10 (B)

Showmanship: 5/5
Musicianship: 3.5/5
Sound: 4/5
Zeek Rating: 3/5
Overall Rating: 7.8/10 (A+)

Yakamashii (Blind Guardian)

Mediocre. I expected a better performance from these guys. Vocals were poor. Crowd was half-assed. Though I got to screw around with Ifran and co. a bit. Heh. But I was impressed by their cover of Speed of Light. Singing while sweeping?! w00t.

Crowd Rating: 2/5
Showmanship: 0.5/5
Musicianship: 5/5
Sound: 1/5
Zeek Rating: 3/5
Overall Rating: 4.6/10 (D)

Meltgsnow (Rammstein)

Great set. Dannie didnt screw up a syllable of German. But hmm.. he didn't sound like Till Lindemann. Dannie sounded more like Finntroll's vocalist. Lol. So theres kinda like a hybrid there. Overall.. they did pretty good. The vibe was changed here. Their guest keyboardist did great too.

Crowd Rating: 1.5/5
Showmanship: 5/5
Musicianship: 4.5/5
Sound: 3.5/5
Zeek Rating: 4/5
Overall Rating: 7/10 (A)

Beast Petrify (Kreator)

Impressive.. but they can do a lot better if they can find a bassist and a second guitarist. THAT WILL BLOW THE SHIT OUT OF ME. I WOULD DEFINITELY 'MARK' THEM OUT AND BE THEIR BITCH. They have the potential to be the Necrophagist, Spiral Architect etc. of Singapore man. But hurhur. The guitars weren't that clean. They did a 45 minute cacophonus concertotrannus tyrannosaurus king size song which was weird and fucking technical. If only, [read above].

Crowd Rating: 2/5
Showmanship: 2/5
Musicianship: 4.5/5
Sound: 2.5/5
Zeek Rating: 5/5
Overall Rating: 6.4/10 (B)


OVERALL GIG RATING: 64.6% (B)

HAPPY 17th BIRTHDAY TO MAS!

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ I am here.. to update. :D

Went to get tickets for the G.O.M 1 gig on Wednesday. Its so refreshing to be out of the house. I had not been out of the house for a week or two. I think. Since the results were out. Yeah wow. And I am always glad to see the #powermetal boys again. Imran especially cos its been ages since I've seen him.

I just had a dream. I forgot what it was.

I need more uber fluids! (Iced Lemon Tea)

Short entry as usual. Heh. Sorry. ITS PRATA TIME!

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Now Listening: Porcupine Tree - Gravity Eyelids

This day marks a new beginning. Its when I step out of this encrusted membrane that has disabled me in doing many things and has limited and bound my mind's omnipotent capabilities. I shall free myself from bondage!

I just backspaced some shit that I've found irrelavant to the above paragraph. I am just going to stop here for the time being.

We are enslaved.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ I need to get away. I need to break away. No its not some new stupid poem I came up with. You know what? I pretty much would not like what I am gonna say but I am gonna say it out anyway. Get away from low lives. Break away from reality. I hope there will be some intelligent people, and I know there will be, in [enter ITE college name/Lasalle/SAE here] whom I can relate to and can at least comprehend two thirds of what I am trying to say to them and what not. I hope I'll get to mix with the right kind of people and remain a low profile. Screw fame. I hope they will be able to speak English. I hope by some miracle, the imprinted grades on my result slip changes through some I don't know. Weird, voodoo thingamajigical (cool ah haha) phenomenon of divine/mystical proportions. I hope that we will have the ability pwn anyone [esp. in the likes of ana morbid, mat jihop and vignesh and the sarajumbo degeneration x crew] who comes in our way. Mj0r Pwn4g3. Sorry I am just 4dd|kt3d to 1337 nowadays. Its k001. I hope by some miracle, I'll wake up from this dream I am in in t-15 and upon waking up, I'll say "Holy fuck crap! What the fuck was that?" out loud 'til my mom hears it, my sis hears it, my stupid neighbours hear it, hell, the people in Cambridge hear it. I hope there won't be any low life scumbag, who will bring his other shitbags along and try to mess with me, and TRY to win. Thank you wrestling for helping me 0wn people. The Tazzmission or 'Katahajime' especially, which is super effective. Or just a simple kick in the nuts which I bet no one no matter how big you are, no matter how fat, smart, small, skinny, smelly, gay will be able to withstand the powa. I'll try to be as slick [to woo the girls in the process] as possible in doing so, dodging, rolling, flipping until that one big moment when he'll find my foot in between his testicles. Exiting the scene scot-free. I'll try to be Neo when it turns into a 30-1 predicament. 1 Neo vs. a million Smiths. Yeah I'll just run away. Its not cowardice. Its called *points to brainsss* McSpicy Double. I think I am just drunk of too much Apple Juice + Aloe Vera. I'll stop here for the time being.

Say what you want. I am just speaking my mind.
