2 Hours Worth Of Tears

2 Hours Worth Of Tears
I just talked to Geri on the phone for 2 hours and i’m not sure if i am feeling any better.No matter what i said,nothing will ever change anyway.I’m just too selfish.I caused my own downfal and all.I really feel like giving up.
 
Kit pissed me off today.Pissed me off real bad.
 
And Geri,i really really really can’t let go.
 
Yes,time is a relavent thing.And i’m not talking about a minute,i’m talking about years.Like what,3-4 years?I don’t know anymore.Stupid brain of mine.

Magali Luyten
Yeap,she’s my new female obsession for now.Heh.Her voice is damn good lah.It’s not those angel from the sky kind,it’s like a male version of Jorn Lande.She’s a vocal coach too,i sooo need her to teach me!I mean,she even has her number on her MySpace,Vibeke doesn’t.
 
She’s in 2 bands, Virus IV and Beautiful Sin.I don’t quite like the music of Virus IV for some bits despite her amazing voice.I prefer Beautiful Sin,which is the brainchild of Uli Kursch.May be buying their album.Quite nice.
 
 
Oh and for a little treat, here are some of her photos from the Ayreon 01011001 launch party! 😀
 
Lori Linstruth!!!!
More Magali Luyten.
Magali with Floor Jansen of After Forever.
With Lori Linstruth!
With Hansi Kürsch of Blind Guardian!!!!!!! 😀
With Liselotte Hegt of DIAL and Cirra Nihva
With Wudstik.
With Marjan Welman of Eliser.Another person with a great voice.
HANSI!!!!!!!
 
It’s weird to be blogging about all this,cos it’s like Magali’s blog but i’m not her.Haha.
 
Here’s Ride The Comet.Magali sings in the chorus with Floor.Note Floor’s amazing vocal lines during the verses too.
 
The Last Session
Recording sessions for Passion’s Grace are OVER!Met up with Namie today to complete the final vocal takes and we’re all done.I’m all done rather,gonna print the demo labels soon and will spread them out.It’s crazy how a small idea of mine can become something of this level man.And honestly,even if my demo doesn’t reach a music scout,i’m still happy i did this.It was really worthwhile and fun to do.And who knows?I’ll also be able to say that i produced a cd too.

Pain

Pain
2009 has been really really cruel to me.
 
In all honesty,i just wish i were dead.Living is so painful.
 
The one whom i love never cares.
The one whom i need is never there.
 
I just feel so miserable after all this.Library competition is just making feel much more stressed and worse,if there’s still a worse.
 
And you,if only you could just take a break from all your studying a little,and just talk to me a little.

Waking Hour-The Gathering
The eyes are made to see
They see the path of our lives

The heart is there to feel
It feels the energy of our time

I can see it
I can feel it

This is my waking hour
This is my place
I can hear it
I feel the power in my heart
And it’s my moment
It is right there
And it’s staring me in the face

Disguise and make-believe
I see the end of all demise
The only way to heal
Is in the honesty of your eyes

I can see it
I can feel it

This is my waking hour
This is my place
I can hear it
I feel the power in my Heart
And its my moment
It is right there
Staring me in the face

The fight is done
And who are we
To judge what will become
All the iron armour is laid down away
Followed by the heroes
Who belong on rested earth
We pray,
We feel the rescue coming near
Within the walking soul to hear
We sense the calm all wrapped in fear
And all the while we heed
The senses way too vast to see
We beg of you to not let go
Our names will provide us with a soul

I can feel it

Falling down
Start again
Life can bring you down
The monumental truth
Of elegance in you
Falling for
A part of who you are
And makes you shine inside

Come And Go
Yesterday was Nicole Siew’s sister’s wedding.It was something which was planned way way way in advance.Even we practiced it months before.Well,everything went very smoothly.Our singing was good,mass was good,reception was good.Everything was really well planned.Even the duet between Stacie and I went very smoothly.Anyway,everything,all the efforts and months and months of preperation just went by in a single day.You might think it’s stupid,but i feel it was all worth it.
 
Swensons Date
Swensons with Geri today.I think we talked even deeper,shared even more.It was a dinner we(I rather) needed and it was a good one.I can’t say much lah,abit too personal for public.But yea,we were studying/doing work in church before that with the KNN bunch,Michael and it was funny at the end.Will upload photos of them once they are on Facebook.
 
Cling to me through the night.
 
Toodles.
 
Equilibrium-Tristania
This is the slowest dance
The dance of a thousand years
The dance of the frozen statues
Clinging together in tears

This is the darkest fight
The fight of a thousand years
The pounding of blood
Through our veins
In our veins
In our eyes
The circles of fear

I cling to you
So cold, so bright
Cling to me through the night

In our veins
Through our veins
The circles of fear
I cling to you
Cling to you
So cold, so bright

Motionless faces
Park of the wasted
In the pale gloom
I hang on to you
In the pale gloom
I am safe and cool

I swim in you
In your dark rivers
Dive in your mind
Search for your monsters
Search for resistance
Sink into the mud
Dance in the halls of insanity
Yet madness is
Your highest deed
Your vanity

Mistress – you made me
Mistress – you saved me
In your cold hands
I am just a tool

Mistress – you made me
Mistress – you saved me
In your cold hands
I am safe and cool

I swim in you
In your dark rivers
Dive in your mind
Search for your monsters
Search for resistance
Sink into the mud
Dance in the halls of insanity
Yet madness is
Your highest deed
Your vanity

Love/L4D Again

Love
Something i found off Cheryl’s blog.I was highly interested in it. 😀
 
I bolded the 2 lines that struck me the most.

i read this off of jiahui’s blog. its nice. 🙂


When a group of professionals posed the question, "What does love mean?" to a group of children between the ages of 4 and 8, they got answers that were broader and deeper than anyone could have imagined. See for yourself:

"Love is that first feeling you feel before all the bad stuff gets in the way."

"When my grandmother got arthritis, she couldn’t bend over and paint her toenails anymore. So my grandfather does it for her all the time, even when his hands got arthritis too. That’s love."

"When someone loves you, the way they say your name is different. You know that your name is safe in their mouth."

"Love is when a girl puts on perfume and a boy puts on shaving cologne and they go out and smell each other."

"Love is when you go out to eat and give somebody most of your French fries without making them give you any of theirs."

"Love is when someone hurts you. And you get so mad but you don’t yell at them because you know it would hurt their feelings."

"Love is what makes you smile when you’re tired."

"Love is when my mommy makes coffee for my daddy and she takes a sip before giving it to him to make sure the taste is OK."

"Love is when you kiss all the time. Then when you get tired of kissing, you still want to be together and you talk more. My Mommy and Daddy are like that. They look gross when they kiss."

"Love is what’s in the room with you at Christmas if you stop opening presents and listen."

"If you want to learn to love better, you should start with a friend who you hate."

"Love is hugging. Love is kissing. Love is saying no."

"When you tell someone something bad about yourself and you’re scared they won’t love you anymore. But then you get surprised because not only do they still love you, they love you even more."

"There are two kinds of love: Our love and God’s love. But God makes both kinds of them."

"Love is when you tell a guy you like his shirt, then he wears it everyday."

"Love is like a little old woman and a little old man who are still friends even after they know each other so well."

"During my piano recital, I was on a stage and scared. I looked at all the people watching me and saw my daddy waving and smiling. He was the only one doing that. I wasn’t scared anymore."

"My mommy loves me more than anybody. You don’t see anyone else kissing me to sleep at night."

"Love is when mommy gives daddy the best piece of chicken."

"Love is when mommy sees daddy smelly and sweaty and still says he is handsomer than Robert Redford."

"Love is when your puppy licks your face even after you left him alone all day."

"I know my older sister loves me because she gives me all her old clothes and has to go out and buy new ones."

"I let my big sister pick on me because my Mom says she only picks on me because she loves me. So I pick on my baby sister because I love her."

"Love cards like Valentine’s cards say stuff on them that we’d like to say ourselves, but we wouldn’t be caught dead saying."

"When you love somebody, your eyelashes go up and down and little stars come out of you."

"Love is when mommy sees daddy on the toilet and she doesn’t think it’s gross."

"You really shouldn’t say ‘I love you’ unless you mean it. But if you mean it, you should say it a lot. People forget."

FREEd
Sorry for the week long silence,my laptop was sent for repair cos of the funny screen colors and all.
 
Last Saturday saw me doing Praise and Worship for our Fuel event,FREEd.It went rather well i have to say,the crowd was a slight disappointment,but all else was really good.I had to leave in between though,had to practice a duet with fellow sober drunkard Stacie Tan.I have to say i got closer to her these days.Since Thursday rather,when she came over to record vocals for 2 of my songs.But yea,our duet prac went rather well indeed.Our harmonies were great,the parts fitted well,i guess we just need to work on the speed and tempo for it,other than that,all else was really smooth indeed.
 
Back to FREEd,i came back just in time to do the final song and all before it ended.I missed the movie screening,but that was really fine.So yea.Our Fuel tshirt is really nice too,thanks Gabby for designing it! 😀
 
 
Laser Quest
I went for Laser Quest on Monday!Pretty fun haha.10 people went.Brandon,Claire,Chun Ming,Christine,Song Pei,Cheryl,Zu Huai,Winson and Jin Liu.So it was 5v5 for the 1st round and 4v4 for the second round(Cheryl and Zu Huai did not play).I have to say,i still suck at laser quest quite a bit.Heh.I’m always one of the lower ranked ones haha.But yea,it was really really fun.The company was great and all.
 
Should go there one day again!!
 
Another Departure
After laser quest,i went to the airport at around 8 45pm to see Isabel off.She’s flying over to London to study and i wish her all the best.It was a really small crowd of friends,i was the only church friend there.We made friends with each other anyway and stuff,so it was great knowing some of her friends here and there.I pray she’ll be okay there.I’ll upload the photo once she sends it over to me.Julian was supposed to come too,but he forgot all about it.I felt it was rather rude and unpolite of him,but oh well.Anthony called to say his goodbyes too.
 
My mum was saying that i keep seeing friends off,she wonders if anyone will actually see me off when i go overseas.
 
Udder’s Part1
Tuesday.
 
Met up with Nicole Siew for lunch at Retro Cafe.I had the BBQ fish which i felt was way better than the BBQ chicken (which i have been eating all this while).I think Nic enjoyed her food and all,but definitely not the service,it was HORRENDOUS!!!Yea.
 
We went to Udder’s after that! 😀 I had lychee martini and of course the compulsory ChocMarsh.Nic had Bailey’s and Bourbon and Snickers with Honeycomb.We swapped here and there and all,i preferred her BnB to my lychee martini and she thought otherwise,so we ended up entirely swapping one flavour.We had a nice chat here and there too,drew on their boards and all.Took a polaroid too (hoho i’m so honoured).Walked around United Square too where we bumped into Ryan.It was a rather great afternoon with her company and all.Have not hung out with her for quite awhile anyway.
 
 
Udder’s Part2
I’m still on Tuesday.
 
Yes i went Udder’s AGAIN at night.Chun Ming,Brandon,Christine and Claire was the company for the night.They met for dinner and ice cream,i was just there for ice cream.I ate Mango Sorbet,really good stuff man.Oh their Hazel’s Nuts flavour is DA BOMB too.Seriously.
 
We had cow drawing contest and photos taken.Claire and Christine have the nicest cows,my cow looks like a pig as usual.Brandon’s cow looks like a dog.Chun Ming’s cow…….nvm.Haha.
 
 
UFO
Wednesday/Today.
 
Woke up early to collect my laptop.Bumped into Cheryl Gien at Jurong.Pleasant surprise.We took the same bus,51,and chit chatted here and there and all.Good start to the monirng.
 
So laptop was collected,data still in contact and they even changed screen for me.Fantasmic.Headed to school for group meeting.Met up with Mou,Brenda and Wensheng.I have to say it was really productive though i got really sleepy halfway through.Got most of the things sorted out.Alot of bullshit and nonsense here and there too haha.Amy dropped by too.
 
UFO is our concept LOL.That’s all i’m gonna say.What could UFO mean?
 
Reflect
During the few days when i had no laptop,i spent the night clearing stuffs and digging up stuffs,found loads of memories,both good and bad.Some brought a huge smile to my face,some made me tear a little.Life was so much simpler then.I was so innocent.I could write about that someone so innocently without knowing what was gonna happen between us,could write words which i found so difficult to say out now.
 
Sometimes i really wonder,what have i become?What have i done?What’s wrong with me?
 
Why?

Kite Flying With Mom!
Yeap.We finally went to fly kite today.
 
We met at hawker center first for lunch before going to Marina Barrage to fly Mr Eagle :D.It was quite great.After several futile attempts,we finally got the kite flying sky high and cruising.Considering it was only a 5 bucks kite,it was great.We chatted abit here and there too.I hardly had time to talk to Kit these days.We’re always so busy and our free times are always at different hours.
 
Tea time at the cafe was good.Their food’s not shabby at all.BUT,they kept on showing Mr Bean man wth.Kit was enjoying the shows while i was like dying there.But yea,we walked along the bridge as well.I suppose it’ll be better at night when it will be more windy.
 
We parted ways at City Hall after a brief visit to HMV,with the usual disappointment from both of us.
 
Pictures!
 
😀
 
Oh,here’s Kit being owned by the kite.Tilt your heads please!!!
 
More vids on my Facebook lol.
 
Bowling With Joshy!
I went to meet Joshua for dinner after that at Yishun.Ate a quick one at Macs before going bowling.It was my first time bowling with him,so it was pretty fun.I had a really really draggy start but picked up my game towards the end of the 2nd game.So the scores for all my 3 games were 84,77 and 129.While not beating my personal best,129 was certainly a good score in a long while.Had a series of spares and a total of 2 strikes in the game,one on the 2nd frame and one on the last.Was really pleased with my game.Tried to help Joshua with his game too.
 
Ok,damn tired now.A good day does not solve all my problems and worries,but i shall not think about them tonight.

Immortal
 
Sometimes I feel
That you’re only a picture in my head
That you’re my moment of ecstacy
My immortal love
 
Maybe if I had dressed mysef up
With memories of you
With the pain, the passion
The world would forget about us
and we just fade away
 
Sometimes I feel
That you’re a diety
Some form of adrenaline
That’s keeping me sane
 
Maybe if I had draped a veil of you
Over myself
Over my tears and sorrows
I would believe all of this were real
And that you are truly immortal
 
Schedule this week is rather awkward.I have tons of pending appointments and none are confirmed.Some are even more frustrating cos it involves recording and all.Aloy already dropped out of this and i’m scrapping a song off my set.I need to get my final 2 vocaists recorded.Why is this so difficult?But then again,i’ve ben procrastinating too.Bleargh.
 
Why am i like this?

She’s Like A Fable-Damian Wilson
She’s like the words of a fable
She’s far more than able
Totally incredible
She says the wilderness beckons
She’s teaching me lessons
But I know what I ought to know
She plays with words and with actions
A visual attraction
That was inevitable
She says she's made out of passion
We drink and we're laughing
She tells me everything
She's like a fable

Black Heart

Black Heart
 
Black heart
This deviltry, this witchery
Engages me in soliloquy
Should I eat it up?
Cast it in stone?
Or replace my own?
 
Yea,i’m just sick and tired of all this i guess.
 
Credits to ~iKate for the photo,she’s just gorgeous.
