3 words for you stupe. "You're a coward." And another, "Don't judge a book by its cover." Come on, he's innocent ! He accompanied me out, he's nice. And now just because he has son, you don't want him in the band ? Fine. I'll find for him. I'll prove it to you! One problem after another -_- Will this year end please? I want to forget everything. I'm back from the park. I went to Pasir Ris Park for breakfast with Izwan just now. McDonald's. We bought it at Elias Mall then walked towards the park. There were crows and mynah birds around so I was like throwing bits of leftover pancakes. And then I played with a cat who had some infection near his tummy or either it's been abused. Poor guy. But the cat's cute. Round and white. Just as fat as the school cat, Brownie. But Brownie's fierce. Bluek . Izwan was trying to forget his crimes and wrongdoings . Blah, blah. And then my friend texted so many questions, asking him to join the band. Whether he wants to be bassist, whether he can learn this song and that. Whether he can play solos or lead guitar. Etc, etc . I myself was irritated. And Izwan was more irritated. So we texted our friend back, saying to him not to ask so many questions. His reply was "Whatever. I'm not in the mood to entertain this kind of people." Oyy ! Stupid coward. ~~Fucking ass poser.~~ We were so pissed off, we walked back home. Just to keep Izwan's cool. He was pissed off last time when he fought with his ex, he kicked his amp (the one similar to what I have now) and it broke. So I joked that I must take care so that I'll not kick it, if not it'll end up like his amp ! He was like -.- but then he started laughing. Lucky me, if not I'll get scolding from my brother already. Haha. Ok, day ended with some LOLs. Better than ending the month of doom with frustration.

I've gone through a lot this year. From minor problems to major ones. I want to get out of this month quick. And today I got my results. Well how did it go? I wasn't shocked. I already got it on Tuesday. I have 4 subjects that are 1-2 marks close to A2 & I lost it just like that. 1 mark, 1 great grade difference. This just makes me realise I've two whole years before I take another major exam. The 'O' levels. The one my senior friends are trying to get over with. And I dropped to the 18th position in class and only the top 20% of the whole cohort. There's no hope for a scholarship but - with some good luck - I'll get my bursary. At least. Well, here goes nothing .. something at least .. And I'll just start. To the one who've always been loving me. You know why I put that song on my blog now? Cause I've been trying to tell you. Listen to the song, look at its lyrics. You'll understand more. "I'm trying to let you know, that I'm better off on my own." It's not that I didn't mean my 'ilyt's. I love you as a friend. Cause you love me, so what to expect? A reply of course. I just can't figure out what made you fall for me. Love potion? Some kind of spell? I bet even if I say this, you'll still have your heart stuck to me .. somehow. Right I'll confess. I don't love you. Not when you buy for me a mini deck or just accompanying me out. I appreciate it very much. But I accepted you only as a FRIEND. Not more. Not a special friend. I can give you the money back. Ask for it. But you won't do that. I know. Cause you fell too much for me. You're going overboard. You just don't understand. I like to be alone. I make my own decisions. Who cares what the hell happens? And can you believe, if .. (I said IF. It won't happen, I'll make a bet if you want)we were together? We are still young. And being at the same age but different mindsets? It doesn't match. Nothing matters much for me actually. But what if we change our minds? What if I had another person to love? Would you still be in it for me? And will we be together forever .. for real ? I think we're not meant to be together alright. Love is just a game. You break it, you get over with it and start again. I'm sorry I can't accept you. This is the reason why I reply late sometimes. Cause I know it's you. But why must it be everyday that you bug me? I can't stand this all, really. I've gone through a lot, like I said, for other people. And now you? But get this straight and right. All your messages or calls are not the reason I don't love you. It's just how I think. How MY mind is like. I neither love you or hate you. I've let out enough. Don't let me write out vulgars. I'm trying to control. Sampai biler I nk mcm gini ? I buat pilihan sendiri , bukan you . You naq, you carik org lain la . Asik naq mintaq jerh, mcm irritating kn ? I taq naq pape lgy .. Hope you understand & I know you will. 'Yours always' (-_-) And a song 'dedicated' for you.

Yea, this morning I played soccer for that Olympic program thing. And some girls I saw on the field were like .. -_- They think they can play so well ? Well, we'll see to that! Haha, I know. I'm a poser. Had a handball match where everyone participated except me. I was doing parkour on the railing under stairs. LOL. Then we had a soccer match. That one I participated. 4 from 2E1, 3 from 2E2. Last few minutes, they scored. Shit it! Haha. Now comes the funny part of the day! We were asked to go to the AVA room for briefing of Sec 2E streaming. While Mr Nasir was talking some teacher near the side farted. Amir who was in front of me.. Tsk, tsk. Made me laugh till I can't stop! I hear the farting noise, it wasn't funny until almost everyone sitting near the teacher started laughing. The 2E4 boys that is. Lucky it's a male teacher. Wonder if it's a she .. Whoa, would be even more embarassing. I'm not naming the teacher. I'll surely get in trouble. Okay that's all. After that, I just couldn't look at anyone's face. I just can't resist laughing. Now Izwan's back , I'm no longer moody ! Wee ! Yay ! But I still don't have the ability to love. So to that someone, if you're reading this, I'm sorry. I like to share my love. I can't be able to love only someone. Okay, I'll be jamming on 13th and 16th with my 2nd band plus Izwan as guest. Yahoo ! :)

~~6:54 PM~~

Yea ! My friend allowed me to borrow his Avenged Sevenfold CD. Live in LBC & Diamonds In The Rough. M18 though. Haha. Their live shows are fantastic! Not as fantastic as Green Day though, Billie pulls up people on stage to play instruments! Syn Gates is coolest of all of course. He looks like Tre Cool, drummer of Green Day. They have a lot of 15-minutes-before-show intro scenes. Like one of the scenes was when Matt knocked on the door of the cubicle,

Matt Shadows: "Yo Johnny, Johnny ! Come on out man, we gotta get out they've been waiting for us man. You're taking forever." Johnny Christ: "Just.. Just one more minute!" M. Shadows: "Come on man, we gotta play for you guys.. Come on Johnny get outta there." Johnny C: "I need more time, I need more time!"

Matt opens the door to see Johnny Christ sitting on the toilet bowl.

J.C: "Oh man, we're in the middle of something here! Give me 10 more minutes."

LOL. That was fake of course but funny. But no band can win Green Day's funny-ness ! They're silly and they're punks that's why I like them. Okay, I'll soon upload the pictures I took while we were at sea this morning. Meanwhile, have a look at my new cover, requested by Izwan. Basket Case - Green Day ; Instrumental Cover

Back from jamming ! Went to Wee Lee Studio at Simei with Rizal. I taught him guitar chords, cause he can't change them fast but he's good at tapping! He's the bassist of Revolution of Chaos, his side band but now in Storm Revivalz. S.R. needed a female vocalist playing rythm and so I joined them, as my side band. He taught me DRUMS! Actually I can play songs like 21 Guns and Waiting but I didn't start right. He taught me the basics. See this :http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BsuTY8Z7G8A Quite confusing at first but then I got the hang of it. But then I didn't take a video of that, oh well, next time I can. Before the time was up, we made a cover. Here it is, hope you enjoyed. :) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_xEfucZUfJk Good luck to any of you taking O Levels tomorrow ! All The Best Mr Gatez .. and everyone !

~~10:30 PM~~

Yayy! Izwan's on probation .. Well that is serious but at least he's not gone in jail! His school results made them approve him to apply for probation. Yahoo! I'm fixing strings on a Squire strat. It's damn harD, I just fixed the 6th string. I used the old cable Sufiyan included and it sounded bad. Lucky I bought a new cable. It kept vibrating, I think I fixed it wrong.. Woopsy. :( Never mind, time for celebration. In my dreams. Sky, bley psgkn tk? Hehe, kte pro? Ok tmr's school, so I'd better go. Mum's calling me. Bye. :)

~~2:39 PM~~

"http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jp9BSW38bXg tgk vid ni" The first thing Izwan said when he was at the cyber cafe MSN-ing with me . It shocked him and he sent it to me just to know that I was shocked too . Haha , tak baik ! Then I told him how I broke a string on a squire strat . He was like "Alaa, kesian . Klw i ade i cn help .." Still has that kind of attitude , how can his parents throw him out like that? He IS a nice person , not was . He was at the cyber cafe . Told me he went court to know his charges this morning and the sentencing will be at 2.30 .. WHICH IS NOW. Shoot. Hope you're okay , I've prayed . Everybody has . Whatever happens , jangan luper sembhyg eh .

~~5:35 PM~~

If you're gone, then I don't know what's up next. Well, I'm not your closest friend you think of.. But I care for you so much. I feel what you're feeling. Betrayed by your own family. And yes, I know you deserve a second chance. You will. You'll not get behind bars tomorrow. When there's a will, there's a way Wan. Don't say that you'll be gone. I believe I'll hear from you, I'll miss you so much. I don't want to see you in tears, hear you whining or just give up. I want you happy. Remember our line?

WE love Green Day. WE play the guitar. WE love Billie Joe Armstrong. WE want to hug him. WE rock.

But there's just one thing left in my mind.

Are WE going to see each other again? And are WE going to see Green Day's concert?

We forgive and forget. I am forgiving you ; but you leave me wondering alone. All A-L-O-N-E. Good luck Izwan. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Well today, went to TM with Mahy. Thanks for the mini deck. The skateboard's so cute! :) I can heelflip and ollie on it. But not really kickflip cause it's not wide enough for landing. Then I bought electric guitar cables (INput-OUTput) and strings. Supposed to go take my Squire with Arif but.. he changed plans. So I'll take my Squire back tomorrow. Well, it seems I'm saying thanks to everyone. And in case I don't see Izwan online or in person anymore, I'll have to say thanks to him. For being a good friend. Thanks abang. You're good :) Ya Allah, please give Izwan a second chance. He has regretted it all. He needs the chance. Everyone is giving him. Please forgive him. Amen. -- Seize the day by Avenged Sevenfold. It just reminds me of you.

Seize the day or die regretting the timeyou lost It's empty and cold without you here, too many people to ache over. Trials in life, questions of us existing here. Don't wanna die alone without you here. Please tell me what we have is real..

So what if I never hold you, or kiss your lips again? So I never want to leave you and the memories of us to see, I beg don't leave me.

Ain't that all right? Now you're happy? I'm sad and you're worse. Yes, you were right. Why did you even exist here? Why did I become friends with you and feel for you? I'm sorry for this but I'm in pieces. I'm heartbroken ..

October 18, 2009

~~2:39 PM~~

There's too many things going on my mind.

Firstly ; Adilah's skateboard I've been using for months have been stolen. And I have to let her keep mine then. I don't mind. So Mahy wants to buy me the mini one. Thanks a lot eh.
I'm pissed off with that kid who stole that deck but I'm happy with Mahy's attempt to keep me happy(: Curse that kid.

Secondly ; Will I get to go to Green Day's concert? Everybody's undecided. My cousin's not sure & some of her friends have already bought it. Hmph ):
Adilah's sister wants to go. But I don't know if they are confirmed. The money's the problem. Kaa-Chiing!

Lastly ; Will my friend (who grew up listening to GD) get to go to Green Day's concert?

This was my short conversation with him.

Me : Eh, you confirmed already to go to GD's concert? Cause I might be going.
Him : If I get to go I'll buy the VIP excess tickts.
Him :I'll tell you on Wed.
Me :But I thought you're going to court?
Him :Yea I am.
Him :If I'm not going to jail..
Him :I can still MSN with you.
Him :But if I'm quiet on Wed.. That means I'm gone..
Him :....
Me :.. Okay.
Me :I'll pray for you not to go behind bars.
Him :Thanks ..

Then we were off. Will he get back to me if he's going to jail?
Where will he go if he doesn't go to jail? Boys' home?
So you can see that I'm mixed with happiness, sadness and excitement.

Help.

~~11:31 PM~~

Went jamming, yeaaa!
It was soo exhausting! K, I'll tell you about it.

Met Munirah & Naqibah at 1:40 pm.
Took the train, take pictures here and there. Look at my Facbook album "Jamming" please. I'm lazy to tell stories.

Reached at 2:10pm in City Hall. Went inside Raffles City Shopping Centre awhile cause Eyba & Eyra wanted to go toilet. Toilet, toilet, toilet?
Favourite place isn't it? Haha.

Then met Zachary, with Sherwin - bass helping out - and their friend whom I didn't recognize. Then waited for Farridon for like 5 minutes then asked him to lead the way to Peninsula Plaza. We reached and DAMN the place was hellla smelly!

Asked an optician about the jamming studio and he said it should be in Peninsula Shopping Centre. We found the place but it was called Guitar 77 instead of Jade Music.
OH yea, the place in the basement! SOOO many guitar shops here and there! Mini drums, mini guitar, Skeleton-shaped guitars and lots of band T-Shirts. Not a single 'Green Day' word on them! HMPH.

Booked! SO, lucky Sherwin has a number of the jamming studio in Bishan.
So we went out to the train and took the bus. At last we're at a jamming studio.
Low quality mic and lighting.. Bluek!

We played Diary Of Jane for like 5 times before we got a 'perfect' one but then I forgot to do the solo and then Drummer was lost. Haaha.

In the end we played quite a full Wake Me Up When September Ends.
One hour was not enough of course, that was the last song.
I broke the string when I felt a string loosening.
Haha, luckily the next band brought their own guitars!

After that, left the boys and we took a cab to E-Hub. Ate at McDonald's and went to White Sands for neoprints.
The link to the album - Everyone can view it.

Science, well I can't say it's easy. Neither it's hard. It was challenging & confusing.

After school I went home, changed to Hoodie & my 3/4 skinnies - cause I didn't need to ask my mum to iron them. Yea, I'm lazyyy!

Went to Tampines Mall awhile with Mahy. Pusinq sane sinie mcm budakk kental ,ehs? Yamaha wasn't opened up yet so we went around Tm, T1 and Century Sq.

I bought Jim Dunlop'ps guitar picks. They're awesome! I want a Green Day pick too! But I'll have to buy it online.

So, I took the train back to Pasir Ris & met Naqibah & Munirah. We went to Pasir Ris Town Park. Take picture here & there, laugh here, luagh there ; BLOOD!

My thumb's nail bled from the inside and small cut. Actually I went to pick up Munirah's purse which went down the slide (yea, I was at the playground). After retrieving it my bag's zip or some other metal part clinged on to the teeny weeny nail and when I tried to take it off, it bled.

Well then, thanks for the plaster Munirah :D Wasn't your fault at all!

I'm off to town later, I'm on my friend's lappy. I pray hard for you not to get to jail abq! Very very much. Insya Allah, Amin.

IS ANYBODY A GREEN DAY FAN? WANT TO FOLLOW SUITE TO GREEN DAY'S CONCERT NEXT YEAR? ANBODY!

October 14, 2009

~~9:17 PM~~

Ok, abq. Srry, I know yr nice. The tattoo's sakit-ness was for your son.

Green Day's coming to Singapore in January 2010 & you're not confirmed if you can go? I know you would.

I'll pray very hard for you not to masok jail, I hope you won't. There won't be any fun me seeing Green Day's concert without someone who loves Green Day too.

OH YEA! GREEN DAY'S COMING TO SINGAPORE! WHOAH! I HOPE I CAN GO! I WANT THE $128 TICKET! I WANT BILLIE TO NOTICE EITHER ME OR IZWAN! I don't care if Billie pulls Izwan up on stage, I don't mind. I just want to see Green Day live & that's my dream. I want to see my friend happy and not be staying over in some house or cell while I'm watching Green Day.

Spread the word to all Singaporean Green Day fans! x) I hope there aren't much so that I still have the time to buy the ticket like in Nov/Dec. I have the money now!

When is Billie coming to Singapore? A week before their concert? I want their autograph or a picture with them (AT LEAST BILLIE) when they arrive at the airport! :D

At least if I can't got to their concert, I can see them and ask for autographs personally! They rock. I'd cry if I don't ever get to see them in my whole lifetime.

It's the first time Green Day will be here & I hope it's not the last. But poor Billie Joe, he composed almost all of GD's songs(that I highly respect!) and I'm sure he's tired. I hope they'll perform songs from Dookie - their very first album, published before I was even born! In 1994.

It's on 14th January, the concert, it's written on their website. School day, Thursday. I don't care. Whatever it is, I have to fulfil my dreams. Tickets out tomorrow - I think. I have to get information.

October 13, 2009

~~9:31 PM~~

Ehhy abq, don't you think I don't know the reason why you're going .. court.

Kawan adeq inqt abq stakat kne tanqkap hisap rokok kpe. Tpi tq kn smpi gtu? I FOUND OUT.

I can't believe that tattoo was for your SON. You don't even talk or mention to me about that. You made me so shocked, I feel quilty going jamminq this Friday tauw?

I seem like a friend but I care for you, know? Still have the chance to belanje your friends if you're on probation? That's still serious okay?

You'll be under the eyes of someone whom you don't know and your family doesn't appreciate you because of what you did! Now, you're filled with regrets!

I know this is YOUR life but I'm too shocked to receive the fact that you did all this. I don't mind the tattoo or whatsoever 369 stuff. I just want you to reflect.

Okay, I know you're nice. I know you want your son and not let him be in some kind of f*cked up familyl. Listen, you should just tell the truth to me. I found out already. You don't even know I found out. Adeq so disappointed with you Abq.

October 12, 2009

~~8:03 PM~~

I'll be going jamming at Jade Music - Peninsula Plaza this friday!

With Farridon (Drummer), Zachary(Lead guitarist) and two friends to accompany and take pictures/videos for me..Naqibah & Munirah! Thanks guys! Izwan can't go. :( No big brothers or sisters. Haha. But the Drummer is. He's 16 but sec 3. At least there's somebody old enough to 'take care' of us.

And I'm buying guitar picks on Thursday, after school. Not in uniform, I'll go home first. I hate it when I have to go somewhere public in uniform.

Well, Geography and maths was easy last friday. Eh, what am I talking about? Not easy. Manageable and challenging. Maths today was even more challenging, with tight time schedule of an hour.

For art, I think I didn't put in much effort for the Supportive Studies. Everyone's seemed much more neater & detailed. I tried my best for this final one, though.

Well, that's it then. Besides making band covers of Diary Of Jane & 21 Guns, I think I want to make a drum/guitar duo with Farridon on the song, Waiting - Green Day.(IT'S ON THE PLAYLIST ON THE RIGHT)

Might consider a drum cover for myself on YouTube! I know how to play Waiting on drums! :D I'm not boasting, it's a fact :) Watch out for the videos, yea!

I know I've put this picture up before but c'mon!

It's Billie Joe!

My electric guitar is something like "Blue" Billie Joe's guitar, up there. Mine's a Squire.

No strings cause it's rusty that my (primary school) friend took it out.

Secondly, it comes with an amplifier but no cable wire cause my (primary sch) friend lost it or it's in a bad condition.

I don't know.

What I know is, now I let my Bassist keep it for me first.

Well, the strings will cost about 15 bucks to 18 bucks - prices like these found in the music shop at Compass Point, Level 4.

I don't mind that that much. But the cable.. how much will it be?

And yea, I know. I'll get my Les Paul by end of year when I get my money.

I haven't even got my results, I can't predict well, can I?

And tomorrow's only Geography..

AAH! Better stop blogging. I'm writing down very last-minute-brief notes, I can't memorise. I have to write, talk out the words, then I can remember.

Off now. One more guitar to go and I'll be like Billie Joe!

That rhymes doesn't it? Well then, I Love You B.J.

The link to my new video: Diary Of Jane - Breaking Benjamin (ACOUSTIC)

October 7, 2009

~~7:56 PM~~

I've uploaded a new video.

Check it out on my channel. youtube.com/fifieyguitar.

Aye? Thanks. Do rate if you have a YouTube account. Thankeeyou!

I made a cover by Breaking Benjamin. It's called Diary of Jane.

I did an acoustic cover of it.

I'll be making a band cover with my band on Friday, the next.

Can't wait to go jamminq!

October 5, 2009

~~8:08 PM~~

Guess whaaaatt!

I'm going jamming on the 16th!

Yeaaahh!

At last, don't know Izwan can follow or not..

but the band can!

AND! My bassist wanted to buy a second-hand guitar from a primary school friend, for me.
I'm like.. WHAAT? But I said I'm only borrowing awhile. Once I get my les paul, I'll give it back to him.
THANK YOU ARIF!
<333333 you - as a friend, don't get me wrong! :D
THANKS, THANKS, THANKS.. A MILLION!
Whaaaa! I'm going crazy! See lah! Alamak!

*Haha, joking joking.

But the problem is, the strings are rusty so.. Sufiyan took it out. ;(

Now I've to buy strings again!

Haha. That's okay, I don't care.

I'm too hyper now.

OFF TO STUDY AGAIN!

October 3, 2009

~~4:38 PM~~

I'm changing my giutar strings now.
Ghs strings. Made in USA.
My strings are already rusty.. so yea.
It's the 'Core Bright Bronze' edition.
It's kinda gold.. but lucky thing my frets ARE gold. Hmph, my guitar's black. -.-

But still, the F chord I always do on my guitar is not clear.
A little better than when I had my rusty strings.. Still not what I expected.
The frets are low-lying that's why. Need re-fretting but might as well I buy a new acoustic next year, right?
Yeahh. Gonna get my electric soon cause the year's ending!
I'll miss 2E1. Still, I can't wait for the exams to finish. It's then when I can jam with my band!
And Izwan will follow.. so, Izwan, sing eh.
Do Seize The Day can? :D

I still want the time to go a bit slower though, exams.. you know.. I really need time for all the History stuff.
Oh shoot my thumb's bleeding. STUPID STRINGS!
I think my guitar knobs are the ones stupid. But the strings made my thumb bleed. Oh FUCK.

The second string.. the tuning supposed to be B. I tried to make it C, so like some songs which needs to be tuned one tuning up and so I tried.. it made a twang sound and I have to tune all over again,
careful not to exceed.
Urftt. 2 more strings to go and I'm done. the 'G'-string (don't make it sound wrong, that's the tuning: G) and 'D'-string ; third and fourth respectively.

I wanted to talk about.. oh yea!
My wish for this month is to do very very well for my exams so that I can get my scholarship to buy an Epiphone Les Paul Junior and the balance money can be used to buy a fluke concert ukelele in March next year! I want to buy one myself for my birthday. :)
AND by the end of 2010, I'm buying a better acoustic guitar. Epiphone Hummingbird? Too costly.
Something like Billie Joe's. Yea. Gibson, BLACK!
I actually want the Gibson Billie Joe Les Paul guitar but the price.. NAHH.
Maybe in 2011, I'll get myself a Pearl Rythm Traveller or just the real drumset for kids.

It's sold at $200+ you know! Go to this website everything's cheap: www.synwin.com.sg

Happy Belated Birthday Adik!
Stay handsome and smart always(As you usually are when I teach you or do mohawks with your hair :] )

That was 5-year-old Billie Joe Armstrong.
He was so cute!

Haha.

Get me a time machine, I'm going to hug him.

But he's like 37 years old now.. and 38 next year.

But he rocks. Oh yeah, I was like looking at the live version of American Eulogy by Green Day and hell I didn't know Mike was the one who sang later in the song!

The first time I heard American Euology when their album released, I was like why is Billie's voice lower?

Wow Mike Dirnt's voice is 90% of Billie's.

One more picture! Billie's "Blue" guitar. His guitar during his childhood times.
