INSANE IN THE MEMBRANE!
INSANE IN THE MEMBRANE!

So I was the other week> last week if I remember correctly. just too caught up with creating a nice song, writing a chorus, thinking about music too much. argh. it really sucks. it's much better now i guess. maybe because my perspective is getting better. i'm not being shallow and superficial anymore. i am back to living and being someone, active rather than being passive.

and i love travis. and i think 'everytime' by britney is actually a nice song. really nice. sigh.

just got back from a friend's concert. not bad not bad. some really skilful violinists especially at the end of the first set and the second set of bach was really nicely done. familiar piece but done nicely.... the teacher must be really proud of them. went to stomp wif sheng on DDR. haha. i lost. but who cares. good exercise. im getting fat.

i'm going to live for God. read ephesians 2 and how we were 'created to do good works'. so here goes. and we sang 'make me a blessing' in church today which was really nice because yeah i want to be a blessing. write christian songs. live for God. tell people about God.

i will not boast in my intelligences, because they are fleeting and they pass by like the wind. i will not boast in my looks, because they (are non existent) are transient. I will not boast in my gifts, because they can be taken away in a jiffy and are inconsistent--sometimes they are here and soemtimes they are not, and so what do I do when they are not? i will not boast in people, for people come and go. 'But i will boast in Jesus Christ, His death and resurrection'.

hows life these days?

life is not bad. in fact the past 3 days were actually quite good. friday i took off and just hanged out and slept till real late. went to play pool with ben and ws and later i and jerm hit off to town to catch 'house of flying daggers', which wasn't really good at all. and later we went to kino to look see and i got a book, 'one hundred years of solitude' by gabriel garcia marquez. seems an interesting read, wen en recommends it. so yeah i'll just occupy myself with reading i guess.
saturday was realyl fun also. played guitars and jammed with darren at his house which was really nice...haven't done that for ages and brings back memories of just hanging out at his house almost every week or something during the hols. fun fun fun. played some pool. went for wen siang's birthday party! COOL. nice to see everyone again. i was really stoned at the start, really tired, and maybe because of the wine, and everything was army talk, but later on the night got really fun with daniel and his antics and hanging around in kevin's room. that was sheer primary-secondary school boys' night out pleasure.

and keane's 'somewhere only we know' is great, i hasten to add.

i realised that alot of my songs are sad. i don't know why. it's probably because i'm usually quite happy-go-lucky that it has become my modus vivendi, and so when sadness and a little bit of melancholy come my way, i can crystallise it into a song, a tune, a mood. but how do you crystallise something that you already know too well? it's too familiar, this party. you can't express it. it's no different. it won't transport you.

but hello. how's life? life is much better and i'm thankful for that.
