Well, I'll upload pictures and blog about this in a sec. I know I know, I keep posting unfinished blogs lately. But what can I say, I hate blogging with a snail internet connection. Can't wait to move out and get my own streamyx. And a cat. :I

I was
eating my usual meal at Sushi King at alamanda when I suddenly got a call from
a good ol' friend, Mr. Black or known simply as Ekey. Heh. Anyhoo, he called up
to invite me to a barbecue at his place for the night. He said, Kest, Izzy,
Shay and the rest will all be there. It's been a long while since I've seen any of the
boys. So I said aye.
When I
got at Ekey's, the first person I met was Fizan. We talked for a while. He
mentioned something about looking for a photographer and that he was quite intrigued
by my photos. Clearly I was quite flattered by that. Haha. So he told me that Dance To The
Radio(DttR), his band, are performing on the 16th and 23rd. And he would like
if I were to join them and take a few shots. At first I was quite skeptical
about getting in and stuff, but he reassured me that he will settle all those
problems and even pay me a reasonable sum of cash. I said that he doesn't have
to go that far because taking pictures is basically my passion. But still, a reasonable
sum of cash does sound tempting. Hmmmmmm..
Hei! A
guy's gotta make a living no?
After
that we went in and joined the others...
It was just right after class that I decided
to tag Nash back to his place in Kelana Jaya. Where a friend of his owns a
studio. A place that he mentioned to be where he spends most of his time back
home. And since I like doing things unplanned, I agreed to check it out.
So we
walked from college to the nearest Rapid KL. Fast forward.... It was night when
we arrived there. Nash's house was just nearby the Kelana Jaya Rapid KL
station. I was quite baffled on how well equipped the place was. It had,
Starbucks, McD, Bakers Cottage, Giant, etc2 inside the neighbourhood. I was
like, holy shite! But the most greatest thing about the place was where the
studio was located... over a 24 hours KFC! xI
I frequently went downstairs to buy some whipped potatoes. :D
And due
to Nash's heroic efforts, the Cybercafe nearby charges only RM1.50 for an hour!
Gosh! If I had a choice this just might be the place I'd live. Haha.
Though I didn't get the chance to take pictures of the studio and them jamming, I did take a few pics of the surrounding area and other stuff. (:
*i'll upload the rest of the pics later.Well, here's an old post I found out on my blogger. Thought I'd post it up here since it's just a ramble and not an update.
It was 8am. And no, i didn't just woke up. I stayed up all night reading books that i haven't finished. Namesake, Alchemist, and The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Nighttime
just to name a few. I like to chain read as much as i chain smoke these
days. It's a sad fact but i guess the stress really got to me. But
since i'm so broke lately i can't even afford a single coke, i've been
off the nics for a while. Though i'm really eager for a few drags.
Anyhoo, i was going through youtube to look for vids of Kaki King
after i decided reading was starting to really lose it's interest when
i found her official youtube account(there's a new vid from her latest
album "Dreaming of Revenge" but more on that in my next blog). So i
subscribed it and ended up watching at my previous subscriptions which
consist of only two other musicians which are Amanda Zelina and KokoKaina(it's her screen name, real name unknown).
I stumbled upon Amanda when i was searching vids of Ray LaMontagne. She
had this cover of Ray's song, "Trouble". More on that later too. The
artist i want to preview
here is KokoKaina. Though not an established singer(for now), she has
more than enough potential to knock others off the stage and steal the
spotlight.
Some might find her home made recordings reminiscent of Yuna, which is currently rising in Malaysia's underground scene. But KokoKaina in my bold opinion sings at a whole different level. Having a voice that could have been undoubtedly be from a 60's Broadway singer makes her a true jewel, yet again, in my own opinion. According to her profile, she resides in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. All the more reason to appreciate her talent. She's a local girl. Her songs mostly consist of Jazz, Blues, Anti-folk and Modern Baroque. So far she has recorded and uploaded 8 cover songs consisting of Charlie Chaplin's "Smile", The Beatles's "Cry Baby Cry", Audrey Hepburn's classic "Moonriver", Bob Thiele's "What A Wonderful World" and even Whitestripes's "We Are Going To Be Friends". Apart from the covers she also composes her own songs which so far are 10 songs.
Okay, strayed off a while there. As I was doing my work, Ain came down and joined me. She's taking Management, a different course from mine. But she took the time to do some doodling.
On the way back we stumbled upon Aiman. She was quite down. Ain calmed her down and I helped her smile. (:
We just hung out for a few hours. I jumped up and down. Rolled here and there. ;D
Well, Aiman is just a misunderstood gal. Yeah, we've all sinned. But people deserve second chances to change. I hope to help her somehow. Me and Ain understand her situation. She's quite in the gutter but who's not. But we got her to laugh by the end of the day. :)
Nih bdak mengada comel. Haha. Suka main bunga. Well, till then peeps. Later. ;)
Anyhoo, the movie turned out good. Ada orang nangis. ;p I thought it was cute. :)
Too bad Nash didn't join us for the movie. He had to go off somewhere to jam with his friends. He's into metal hardcore shit btw. Nasty nasty guy. Haha. But he's got a good heart. A 21 year old one that is. Ain too, she's very nice and mature about decisions, maybe that's what intrigues me about her. Though she's not 21 la. Haha. She's my age. Older by a few months but who cares. xp
Yuyu is quite a cute little character. A bit quiet on one hand but has a little spunky brat hiding in it. Hehe. Well, you're ok.
but oscars do. ;p read more
