Referring to the above, this message is for anybody who passed by my blog and is willing to sell their Les Paul guitar (any brand) at $200+ . $250 maximum .. It's quite a good offer for a second hand Les Paul ! The price is almost like an Epiphone Les Paul Special isn't it ? Do tag me in the tagboard if you are willing to accept this offer thanks! Err , nothing much to blog about .. I want to study again ! Haha . I know it's strange but I want school ! No , no . Not school . Just lessons . I need a bursary or better scholarship next year ! I tell you if I get a scholarship , I'll get a drumset . Carlos maybe . If I get a bursary , I'll get that Ibanez with the whammy bar . Will rock out well ! Yea , for me , I get encouraged to study by Edusave awards . Cause I'll get money . And with money I get music ! I'll be buying Green Day concert tickets .. maybe next week . Cause some of my friends are going . Not many Green Day fans in school . So , that's great news cause I don't think tickets are selling fast . But bad news cause it's a pity most fans are only in America .. or at least somewhere near the region . I hope mum lets me out to jam on Wednesday again ! Put on a rock show , yea ! Anyone wants to tag along ? I'd be very pleased if you would ! :)

Yeaa ! I got an Edusave award ! But not scholarship .. just bursary which is 250 bucks . If I had worked a little harder I would have gotten 500 instead ! That's okay . My father gonna give me extra 50 bucks cause he gets bonus .. I don't really know if he'll get it . Cause I saw this caption on the papers : No Bonus For Civil Servants . Whoa, that's kinda heavy to accept. I'll be buying an Epiphone Les Paul Special II for $280 at SV Guitars get an amp which is $50/$75 .. Idk which one to choose . And yeah . Total will be around $355/335 depending on the chosen amp . Then I'll only need to spend either 35/55 bucks . Ain't that cheap ? The rest is free ! I have my cables and straps ,so no worries. I'll get the effects next year. Or I'll get an Ibanez next year . It's only 280 at SV Guitars. Here's the website if you want cheap/branded/expensive guitars. All types. Drums included. http://standardvalue.com.sg/store ... Cancel out the (/store) if you want to go to their blog updates of shipped effect paddles and guitars.

Well my friend has gone back to America now .. :( His cousins sent him back . Gosh . But he's in Las Vegas ! I'm so jealous. Wish I can follow him cause it's still the holidays. Nevermind that. That was quite a shock than a surprise cause I didn't even get to meet him . Another surprise is .. my band members said they have a surprise for me on our next jamming session which is Tuesday. Wonder what it is ? Not my birthday for sure.. it's been long gone & it's only coming next year. 3 months to go . And why is it just me ? The whole band has a surprise just for me? Is it because I'm the youngest and the only girl? Is it just a song dedicated to me? Is it an object? Sigh. Surprises. Leaves you wondering like there's no other business. Hari Raya Haji tomorrow. We'll be having dinner at my house. It's something unpredictable & in the end it's right, I hope you had the time of your life :)

Yeap, I forget to blog about it. My friend who's from California , took a flight from San Fransisco to Changi Airport yesterday, He didn't tell me much about it, so I didn't have time to see him at the airport .. plus I was out of the country yesterday. Erick's living in Bayview Hotel .. I guess that's somewhere in town? I think he has a laptop but his guitar is not with him. I might be inviting him over to jam here .. I wanna make a cover! Cool huh? Two different people from 2 countries covering the same song. Hehe. He bought plane tickets and has 300 bucks. Wow, US$300 isn't that enough here .. wonder how long he'll be staying. He's going to be in big trouble with that amount if he's going to stay for weeks! I can't believe he's here! I got to meet him, no other chance of meeting a pen-pal!

~~2:13 PM~~

I went jamming again at Bugis on Friday. I didn't go for guitar practice .. I wasn't feeling that well. Then it was already raining at 1.30pm .. Which sucks cause my mum didn't allow me to go jamming at first. Grounded , yeah . So I prayed so hard for the rain to stop and it did ! Well, not really, it just drizzled. So off I go to wait for the bus. I asked Izwan to go ahead first cause I was already late. Took the train alone, played games on my phone and reached Bugis station. Already 3.30pm by then. Went up the escalator and saw Rizal & Salim .. Yeap, we actually took the same train. -.- Met Hazim & Azianna, waited for Izwan and Adib.. Adib took the wrong train and changed at Dhoby Ghaut. What the fuck. It's almost 4 and Izwan came 10 minutes after .. Chitchat for a couple of minutes and at last there was Adib! ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- We set off on our way to Beat Merchants and the bad goddamn fucking news was.. FULL. Fuck, fuck, fuck. We tried to search for another jamming studio near Hindi Lane .. or is it Hindi Road? Okay, whatever. For 20 minutes we searched for the place and at last we've found it! Azianna had to go cause she had to meet her friends. Man, I can't teache her chords or at least bass! The room was cool! Like some hotel room. Bigger than my bedroom! With a sofa and a stage. Played some songs and recorded a song the guys sang. Puspa by ST12 . Izwan played the guitar, Rizal & Hazim sang .. Adib on drums and back-up vocals. Salim was 'conductor' at first. That idiot.. Haha ! It's 6pm and we had to go.. Went to eat at Victory ..I didn't eat. I was eating music. Hehe. Then I had to buy murtabak from the restaurant next door for my father & bro. It was already late .. quite. 7 plus. Adib went for prayers with his skull-printed shirt. Luckily he wasn't caught or anything! Took the train back home with everyone. Hazim, Rizal and Salim alighted at Tampines while Adib, Izwan and me alighted at Pasir Ris. Took the bus home alone and along the way some grandma fell from her seat. Urftt. I was already late. Got some nagging at home.

Yeaaa ! Izwan's not in jail! He messaged me around 11 after I finished my fuckin' guitar practice. Not sure if Azianna can come .. I'm teaching her bass and maybe some chords. Changed my blogskin cause the other one had a lot of errors. You may notice the headers are a bit too colourful . I edited that cause I find it boring. And the "wishlist" , "21st Century Breakdown" & "Idols" are added by me! It's quite a boring blog without those. I have to edit the tagboard box there .. it's a bit too cramped up . Okie, I miss 2E1 so much. 3E1 wouldn't be as much fun as 1E1 '08 & 2E1 '09!

I thought it was all over for him. On Tuesday, I asked him if he wanted to go jamming with my band again on Friday. His reply was "If I don't go to jail .." OMG. Tomorrow is his court. Final one. His minimum jail term: 5 years. What The F*ck. There's no fun without Izwan! I don't want him to go! ): ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- .. Went to the park with Rizal, Salim and Hazim yesterday. Zim brought along his skateboard. I brought my guitar. Taught Salim and Rizal some chords. Rizal taught him bass. He preferred bass. Hahhaha. That Idiot. Strum guitar tkde bunyi sia. LOL. After a month or two of not skating, I can still do my Ollies and Pop Shov-It! The pop shove was an accidental one. Yea, the first time I popped, I landed the ollie! So happy. They smoked but I didn't.. Bleargh. Cigars. Hooks you up and never lets go! Then it started to rain, so we cut across Pasir Ris Town Park to get to White Sands. We saw some of our friends .. well, mine .. So Rizal was like waving to them. He didn't know there was a tree in front of him ! Lucky for him, I issued a warning . hahaha. Yea, it was so much fun to kill time. And I didn't even know Izwan actually messaged me to ask where we were . Poor guy. Sorry Izwan! My handphone wasn't getting any connection. Man, he missed all the fun . Ohyea, we also jumpstyle-d. Haha. Stupid phone of mine. Why did I trade my Cybershot for a stupid Nokia phone -.- Oh well, guitar again for the week and jamming again on Friday! Azianna, must come tau!

Came back from jamming .. 30 minutes ago. It was GREAT . First thing in the morning .. I had to go to school. Guitar practice. So at the same time I practiced my band's songlist. Then waited for Izwan around 2.30 at Pasir Ris mrt station .. and we took the train first. Went to Peninsula Shopping centre to meet the band members and Izwan bought 3 picks. Then they smoked - nope, I didn't! :) ..while waiting for Gabriel. The lead guitarist! After that took the train to Bugis and waited for Adib, drummer and Azianna.. My bassist's so called girlfriend. Haha. It was raining so.. on the way to Beat Merchants , my hair got so wet. Pfft :( I looked stupid. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Then we jammed at 4.30pm. Played Unholy Confessions and other songs . A lot! Then at 6pm we were asked to stop but me, Gabriel and Izwan still jammed till the next band came in. Haha. I played East Jesus Nowhere on the drums. It was the first time I played that song on drums ! But nobody recorded. :( I always 'air drum' at home .. so it was quite a practice. And it turned out awesome ! Should try you know! Hahaha. After all that jamming, we went to Victory. I ordered one piece of prata but the person gave two. I ate only like a quarter ?? And I still had to pay for two ! Adib and Izwan kept joking at me. What the hell -.- They never met each other before but they really matched as jokers! Yea, so waited for some of the guys to finish their prayers and I went home with Izwan. The rest wanted to go karaoke-ing. Lucky there's someone to go home with me. My mum kept calling. Cause it's late. Well then, it's almost ten now. I'm so fucked up. Thanks for the outing everyone! :) Hope to jam with you guys again!

~~6:38 PM~~

I'm so tired . I sat in front of the computer the whole day trying to memorise tabs and lyrics . So many things in my mind now. First, I have to get a guitar strap . Second, I'll get my results tomorrow. Third, Prom night event's coming soon. Fourth, will my band be able make it if we join Beat Asia 2010? And last, will that affect my studies next year ? ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I'm out of ideas what to wear when I'll perform for the prom night event. Have to dress up formally. It's okay if I wear something punk but the jeans.. it's considered casual. -.- Rules. I love to abide some you know ? At last! There's something out of my mind. Just one. I've booked a room at Beat Merchants. We'll be jamming on the 13th. I'm afraid I can't bring anybody else. 6 Musicians and 5 extra friends. What the hell. Rizal wants to bring his friends cause we're gonna sing Happy Birthday by The Click Five. -_- Luckily, the room's quite big. I just learned Afterlife by Avenged Sevenfold. The solo's quite hard but intro and Zacky's part.. super simple . I'm not ready yet to make a cover though.. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- A little something for you guys.. Ahmad sent me the link . Irritating but funny. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VPSWnLl3lfw MUST WATCH! :)

You know, I think I'm getting further away from my first band ; Rythm Of Riddance and closer to Storm Revivalz instead . All of them are my seniors so .. I'm the youngest one in the band. They're so organised. Rizal sent me a songlist of which I must learn and which songs I must learn the lyrics . 12 songs in total . My homework. Hehe. :D My parents doesn't know much about my music life, who I'm jamming with and all. All they know is I'm jammed with friends, I stare at the computer, I jam my guitar too loud. Complaints, complaints. I want to live far away in a home with my band where we can jam all day. They don't even know what tabs are. And my father ? Just a busybody. I was recording something in my room when he came in and grabbed my acoustic guitar to play a chord I taught him last year. All he played was the A Minor chord and sang insanely. What's happening ? ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ And whenever I sang like to make a cover, they'd be whispering .. like so oblivious that I can hear them. -_- Then at dinner time they'll make a joke out of it. Another thing is my brother. He has such big mouth. I don't mind saying this cause he laughs everytime I said this to him. He'll ask my mum," Mama, why is she in a bad mood? Oh, I know. Cause she's a teenager right? They're emotional right?" Oh God. Can you feel what I'm feeling right now? ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ It'll be such Good Riddance when they all stop this. No, I'm not changing my attitude or something. I'm irrtated. This things I'm doing, would make a good career in the future ahead. I'll probably be involved, in any way, in a music industry. It's passion. I don't want to grow up and be a normal housewife with chores here and there! ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Well, I've let it all out. Here are my covers today: .Seize The Day Solo - This is quite crappy though .My favourite song: East Jesus Nowhere by Green Day Oh yes, I need help. I'll be involved in quite a lot of events: -Perform at school's prom night -Perform for assembly next year -Join Asian Beat 2010 Band competiton The thing is, firstly, the prom night event. I have to wear something formal yet dressing in a punk outfit. Would this be the solution? : Punk Clothes I'm out of ideas. My mind is in a Green Day-daze state. I can't think much. :(
