(don't bet on this please seeing how yours truly is Mistress of Procrastination. among other things.)
(also - reading The Sartorialist makes me wanna shop excessively. thanks lorrr nasehr grrr.)
(lastly - can I just say that I am Really proud of shivvani for doing so well in her O's)

<3

so a recent lunch batter with Pietro brought about the revival of old 'emo' (read: ENTIRELY IN NO LOGICAL RELATION TO THE CURRENT TRENDYWANKY STUPID EYELINER BLACKCRYDIE EVERYTHING RUBBISH OK AND WE BOTH AGREE.) music compilations (read: downloaded/ripped-burned) for some sharing (read: redistribution), yet to receive his end of the mix though right now I'm pretty damn contented with what I dug up from back in the day. on veryvery sentimental grounds, this particular array of music never fails to tug at my heartstrings and as tacky as this sounds, I still gotta say it - EMO MUSIC WHAT. but no really...

a good chunk of my 'prime' in teenage years (read: yes it's official - I am no longer a bloody teen, *BAWLS*) revolved around music (among other things like self destructive aggrresive skating) and that made up what had been 'life'. well it's really indescribable, just how do you put words and terms to a high enlightenment coupled with wonder and awe wow this is So worth living for sort of emotion that music brings about? YOU CANNOT because nothing, absolutely nothing is sufficiently justifiable. so that essentially got me through go-bang-the-wall school life and similar things unfavourable today.

what was, still is, held dear to my heart was the band. at present, the vocalist is pursing his studies in Malaysia (doing very well too with his current band, radio air play, the whole package) as he was unable to attain a Visa here in SG... guitarist is a busybusy working man (totally MIA), and our drummer, still around but hangs out in an almost isolated part of SG, with all respect, hard at work in school. we have not met since calbs left for Malaysia, he was really the ‘backbone’ of our band if I may say. I’m certain each of us still very much feel nostalgic, tear jerky even every now and then... how is it possible, the escape from memories attached to music?

this morning during the journey to work, the sun seemed brighter. trees seemed greener and everything else seemed of a greater saturation in colour. YES IT’S TRUE, that happens even if you listen to EMO music... in the bus, I considered the idea of a new band with pietro and others like minded, OFF BEAT DRUMMING IS THE SHIZNITZ WOOHOO. well at least it would be easier for us to go for jams, being in the same work place and all. It’s certainly not gonna replace what once had been, but definitely would make up for what has been amiss all this while <3

very first night shot with canon eos400d

of the 8 'official' shoots that I've had, the best extremity by far would be when a nap in my vehicle seemed ideal at 1AM on saturday morning while parked across from subject of shoot. traffic had been too heavy for liking then (friday late-night-out's) and it didn't clear until 2.30AM. siao or not? but honestly, night shoots are much enjoyable than day, in company of the almost absolute stillness and cool wet air. doesn't that spell bloody TRANQUIL? a trait of definite rarity in the public of Singapore streets.

in other news. lazy bug's gotten to me at work urgh DISCIPLINE, DISCIPLINE!

remember how I mentioned that I absolutely Love end of season sales

well here's what's been purchased with muchLove recently

total damage: according to my mom, I 'buy things like no need money'

what she does not know: this is merely the beginning of a horriblehorrible broke-as-hell end

edit: for khai; APTNESS HUH!:)
