One late entry...
Woohoo!!! I finally got my new guitar effect processor... errm or rather amp modeller. After using my RP12 for almost 7 years, I guess it's about time to change a new unit to get a even better sound than what I'm using now. After work I rided down to City Music to take a look at the PODxt which I've been checking out. I've been checking out other effects like GT6 and GNX3 and even used my other guitarist's GNX2. So far, the sound don't really blows me off. GNX is good, but when I tried tweaking it in the rental studio, the sound just don't appeal me. It's good, but it just not up to my taste. When I was checking out the PODxt, I tried some of the patches and wasn't very convinced by the sound. In my opinion, it sounded "weak". Maybe the guitar used is not that good either. What really makes me decide to get it in the end is when I tried the "Master of Puppet" patch which emulates Metallica sound and WOW! it IS really close! And since I'm gonna get something which I'll be using for years to come and won't wanna settle for less, I might as well get the unit. Of course it is not a cheap unit so you guess it, it really burnt a bloody big hole in my pocket!!! But if the unit's worth it, why not?
How I feel today.....
Runaway
曲：陶吉吉 | 詞：陶吉吉/娃娃
無名的怒火 有說不出的無力想敲打我自己
os:太陽快要下山了 什麼都不做 只拿著遙控器 一直不停的換台
麻木的神經 感覺自己像個機器快不能呼吸
os:快打開冰箱看看裡面的東西 唉~ 除了醬瓜什麼也沒有 算了吧 去外面吃吧
火辣的太陽 永遠在前方 無盡的公路 無盡的追求
我想要 run away run away 不想再懷疑自己對不對
甩開一切無所謂 run away run away
像困在霧裡 焦躁的想從茫然的現實中逃離
os:唉~ 想的太簡單了吧 你覺得你想做的都可以做得到嗎?
淡掉的感情 還堅持下去又有什麼意義
os:喂! 你拿著車鑰匙要去哪裡啊 你別忘明天還要上班呢 別在外面鬼混了
風吹亂頭髮 黑暗星空下 無盡的公路 無盡的自由
我需要 run away run away 不想再懷疑自己對不對
甩開一切無所謂 就快去 run away run away
我可以 run away run away 不想再懷疑自己對不對
是為自己不為誰 不在乎的 run away
很多人再說 不斷的一直說 必須這樣子做 不能夠那樣做
卻又沒有辦法在自己的生命中突破 oh ya~
如果再不走 就永遠不會走 別讓自己再回頭 沒掙扎怎能夠有自由 快走
現在就 run away run away 不想再懷疑自己對不對
甩開一切無所謂 run away run away
快點去 run away run away 不想再懷疑自己對不對
是為自己不為誰 不在乎的 run away
現在要 run away run away
今天要 run away run away
現在要 run away run away
今天要 run away run away

I was right yesterday.... I'm falling sick!!!!This morning reached office can smell something funny in the air, very nauseous type.... one colleague said it could be a dead rat, but dunno lah, fuck, I feeling my body aching all over and yet got to smell this kind of shit, definitely made my condition worse. Until mid morning, really cannot stand the smell so I took a breather by going to see a doctor. Doctor told me I had fever and advised me to rest at home. I told myself, if can tahan I try not to go, cos it seems that I've been taking MC every month (didn't know I'm that weak keke or is it the lack of rest?) But after lunch, I just couldn't stand it anymore so I decided to go back. After ckearing my stuff, I tot of taking some work back so I can do some of it IF I'm in the condition to do it.
On the way back, when I go buy lunch for myself (before taking medicine), I thought of getting a pair of hamsters for my mom, since that Sat she seems interested about them. In the end, I got 2 female hamsters (coz dun want them to breed) and put them into a nice cage, although it's old. And took some pics with my phone cam and here they are....
After that, I head for the bed, played the SPA music Lemon gave me (pretty effective huh) and knocked out until now.... After this, it's heading back to the bed AGAIN :D

Wat a Day....
Kaoz, waking at 6am in a Sunday morning?!?!?!? WTF??? keke.. yeah, I had to wake up at this time coz I'm having a motorbike trip to Kota Tinggi, Malaysia. As usual, I couldn't get up on time (in fact, I'm fucking late!!!) and got a very shitty ass feeling like my body's gonna collapse. No matter wat, I've gave them my word and so I had to go even though I'm not in the right condition to go (but I don't really give a fuck anyway). Once I reached Johor, I had a slight difficulty in looking for them at the desinated petrol station. After I found the right station, I realised that they're gone and Rudy messaged me to catch up with them FAST! Ok, I tried as fast as I could (not very fast anyway... it's only like 120km/h) and when I reached Kota Tinggi, I found them having brunch at a eatery cafe. And guess wat, I actually forgotten that they're riding there to go hiking, and best of all, I'm in riding gear and no casual wear *faints* So when we parked at the resort, with my body killing me, I told them that I'll join them in the hiking next round since I only desired to go home. After chilling out for a while at the cafe, I start up the bike and move off back to Sinkapore. Comes to think of it, this trip is like a solo trip for me since I'm alone on the road 90% of the time but surprisingly, I kinda enjoyed the trip, although I'm tired out when I reached home....
Felt like Shit
This morning I woke up, first thing to do when my brother got back, is to fix up the fixture for my new TV and DVD player ^.^ After fixing, this is how it looks in my room. Nice man.... keke....Now I can watch MPEG1 files and DVDs without powering up my PC muahahaha
Today is supposed to be the day for me to sleep until evening, but I had to wake up at 11am.... Why? Coz I had to go to Altron to mark the practical test answers the students had saved in their PCs. To my surprise, it was a quick affair as it only took me about 45mins. So I considered finished my marking? Fuck NO! I still gonna go back and mark the answer scripts and conclude the overall grade. But fuck, today really kinda of shitty... is it coz I'm feeling down them I feel tired or is it the other round? Watever it is, it just don't feel GOOD. Then I head on to Sim Lim square to get some components for my newly acquired Monitor plus getting the USB/COM Port convertor for my sis. In the end, got myself a new video card which supports dual displays as i need that for my recording PC. Things are much easier when I can see the mixer and tracks at the same time.
After I go back and dump the load into my room, I head off to Chinatown for KTV where we'll be celebrating Liquid's birthday. By the time I on the way to Chinatown, I'm half dead but then for Liquid's birthday celebration, must go must go!!! Muahaha! Tot of giving him a surprise but then his suspicion had killed the surprise element... oh well, we did enjoy the session anyway, especially with Lemon and Cal this 2 歡喜冤家around muahahaha!! Of course, not forgetting SBG, this is the first time I saw her and fwah, she IS tall!! She brought her cute little kid along who looked very bright, but alas, I'm too tired to have more fun than I did. KNN, somemore before I go and meet this guy to view the GT6, SBG asked her kid to hug me.... HUG ME?!?!?!?! She actually want a man with heart of stone to hug someone?!?!?!?! I rather she kill me. Muahahaha.
When I go meet Dave to view his multieffects unit, I was shocked that he brought out GT5!!!! Jesus Fucking Christ, tot we've been smsing each other stating "GT6" in the message number of times.... Damn wasted trip, and head on home after that where Hilary and Damien waited for me for few hours when I told them not to wait...Guess they really got no where to go... so they follow me up and we check out the Rush Drum Solo my student gave me. I was totally blown off by the drummer's feats!
Shortly after, they left my place and now, I have only less than 4 hours to sleep before I get up and go for the Kota Tinggi Trip.

Woohoo, finally it's the end of the class I was assigned to teach. The students seems very happy after the test and I'm very glad that they started making fun of each other at the end of the module. That's what I had wanted them to be in the first place.
After the lesson, called Barry so as to meet him to go to Zombie with the Jason, Justin, Leong and Brandon. However, he didn't pick up the call and after the second try, since I remembered that Edwin did ask about arranging program and he mentioned that Allen and Michael is coming, I agreed without a second thought coz Michael is leaving for US soon and God knows when he'll be back again. The other gang can meet or dun meet at all, I was never close to them in the first place *shrug* Hanged around the shop for a while until when Edwin came, he brought us to a guitar shop where I met Kerk, the guitarist I played with years back. Oh well, he's still as patronising as ever (or that's the way he treats ppl, watever, do you think I give a fuck?) when I asked him if I could try the V-Amp. Oh well, never interested in buying anyway but that was a good way to test him and prove my point rite.
When Hilary arrived, we head off for a drink to celebrate Edwin's birthday, which I only knew that evening (Arrghhh! If I knew earlier, I could get something for him!). We went to Embargo to drink where I first tasted a new german beer called Hoegarrden. The taste was good and smooth, unlike any other beer. Edwin is the most jialat one, ppl around him kept ordering those jialat liquors like Tequila Neat and Graveyard, just to get him drunk. Tell you, Edwin's a fucking good drinker and under all these abuses, even he also cannot take it and finally he knocked out after he puked. Everyone's bought him a drink and I felt guilty that I didn't get anything drink for him. Luckily I didn't order or he'll land himself into deeper shit. We slowly helped him to grab a cab and from there we split up. Phew, wat a nite... it's pretty enjoyable coz it's been a while since I actually spent quality time with these worthwhile friends.

Woohoo, today got Soiled Sale at my workplace! Shopping time! Ok wat's a soiled sale? It's a sale for our staff to purchase our company's products which could be rejected, serviced or display sets. It comes with 3 months' warranty so if any problem within that period, you can get back a full refund. All the items are selling at "Tiao Lao" prices, mostly less than half the retail price. hehe, I got my 15" TV for $150! Ok you may think wah, so expensive but hey, it comes with 3 external inputs, Dual Sound selection feature and Teletext and best of all, it's a household brand. Wat's more can you ask for???? In the end, I got myself 1 15" TV and 1 17" PC monitor. And for all these I only spent $300.... cool huh?
Song of Lonliness
寂寞的季節
風吹落最後一片葉 我的心也飄著雪
愛只能往回憶裡堆棧 oh~ 給下個季節
忽然間樹梢冒花蕊 我怎麼會都沒有感覺
oh~ 整條街 都是戀愛的人 我獨自走在暖風的夜
多想要向過去告別 當季節不停更迭 oh~
卻還是少一點堅決 在這寂寞的季節
艷陽高照在那海邊 愛情盛開的世界
遠遠看著熱鬧一切 oh~ 我記得那狂烈
窗外是快枯黃的葉 感傷在心中有一些 oh~
我瞭解 那些愛過的人 心是如何慢慢在凋謝
多想要向過去告別 當季節不停更迭 oh~
卻還是少一點堅決 在這寂寞的季節
又走過風吹的冷冽 最後一盞燈熄滅
從回憶我慢慢穿越 在這寂寞的季節
還是寂寞的季節 一樣寂寞的季節
風吹落最後一片葉 我的心也飄著雪
愛只能往回憶裡堆棧 oh~ 給下個季節
忽然間樹梢冒花蕊 我怎麼會都沒有感覺
oh~ 整條街 都是戀愛的人 我獨自走在暖風的夜
多想要向過去告別 當季節不停更迭 oh~
卻還是少一點堅決 在這寂寞的季節
艷陽高照在那海邊 愛情盛開的世界
遠遠看著熱鬧一切 oh~ 我記得那狂烈
窗外是快枯黃的葉 感傷在心中有一些 oh~
我瞭解 那些愛過的人 心是如何慢慢在凋謝
多想要向過去告別 當季節不停更迭 oh~
卻還是少一點堅決 在這寂寞的季節
又走過風吹的冷冽 最後一盞燈熄滅
從回憶我慢慢穿越 在這寂寞的季節
還是寂寞的季節 一樣寂寞的季節
The Shit just gets better by the day....
Oh great, fucking great..... first, casual conversation all went wrong. Then, vocalist left the band. And now, losing a friend. Hmmm, Shit just can't get any better.... Out of friendship, I went to friendster and try to add Leong into my list of friends.... only to know today that my request had been rejected!!! Maybe I had not been a good friend to him at all, or I'm no longer good enuff to be his friend, or watever. We had our fun together in the past and those are one of my happier days but now, things had turned out this way. Maybe he has better reasons to do that in Friendster, but this event really makes me think: Friendship can be as frail as a wine glass. Oh well, I've gotten enuff shit to think further about this issue and since that's the way things go, so be it. Maybe friendship isn't worth treasuring after all, coz in the end, I end up with none anyway. I don't think I deserve any friends as I hasn't been a good one to them anyway. Sometimes it's always better to alone.... no heartaches, no disappointment toward myself, and everyone's happy. For those who appreciated me as who I am, I'm deeply grateful for I'll always remember them and for those who don't, FUCK THEM.
That's it
Ya, that's it. We're now without a vocalist.... once again. This evening we went down to his place, trying to convince him to stay. He explained that it's not that he sick of music but rather he don't like being in the limelight aka backstage player. Based on that reason, we know that we can't keep him any longer and thus we let him go... Oh well, back to square one again..... start to search for a new vocalist once again -_-"
