Woke up at 3am to watch and support England playing Brazil and the new Wembley stadium last night. I was amazing I guess. Weei and I seldom get to support the same team playing cos normally its like he wants Man U to win and I don't want Man U to win so if Portsmouth scores a goal against Man U I gotta control my feelings and the same for him too when Man U scores against someone else. But yesterday was totally different.
We were going like UHHs AHHHss. Shouting and screaming in a quiet manner cos his roommate was asleep la. When the Terry goal came we were like punching the air celebrating together. When Wes Brown got sub up and make that stupid mistake with his first touch we were like bloody piece of crap rubbish player, lan jiao player, ji bai player...Hehe, I had fun.... Only managed to sleep at 5.30am and woke up at 1pm today.

The beautiful melodies
Hong Hu kena stunned by she-who-must-not-be-named today. I asked him 有看到吗？ he said, 有有，很美！！！ Well there you go.... One more fan to add to her list..
Its like a mismatch. A scene from a movie where the geek falls for the cheerleader..Not possible is it...
Oh well, I must continue to live my life..
The strings concert went well. An orchestra performance never fails to blow me off my seat and I was blew of my seat although everything wasn't of professional standard but i think they should be applauded for their efforts and determination alone... Its quite sad that the crowd didn't really follow orchestra music protocol. Well, actually you don't clap between movements of a symphony or concerto or whatever else and at the end you clap endlessly so that the conductor will do curtain calls and ultimately the encore piece. You don't stop clapping after he walked backstage and then shout for encore. Its just weird.
Hong Hu asked me this question and it really shot through my heart and caused me to think alot. He said, why u never go and meet up with your class or congratulate your friends. For a moment I was stunned. Come to think of it, I didn't really make an effort to congratulate people so I was jolted into action. First Danni then Stacy then Edmund. Thats basically everybody I know in strings. I was happy and satisfied with myself. Normally I would just walk home directly after a concert and not hang back to congratulate everybody. I guess its different when you have friends watching concerts with you. Hong Hu, that was the reason why I really wanted you to come and watch the concert with me. I'm not some popular guy in school and gets invitation to watch this and that with friends. Most of the time I'm just alone. I don't walk around in school all the time surrounded by many people. I think I'm just this nobody.

Composing
"As I was passing through Windy Gap"
That was the first line of the song that I composed or rather we composed during the composition workshop. Haha. The title of the piece is Ngayulyul (In-ga-liu-liu) which means the place where the hawk dreams. It is actually an aboriginal word.
I had fun throughout the 3 days of the workshop. Met new people, got so tired to listening to Listz's La campanella and Rachmaninoff's Piano Concerto No.3. There were these few guys at the workshop who loved them so much and played them whenever they could get their hands on a piano. Of course during the first 2 days, AS was in one of her PMS moods again, scolding me for absolutely nothing at all.. Oh well, girls always have that PMS excuse whenever they scold poeple for no reason.
One of the things I learnt during the composition workshop is that we must learn to listen to pieces that we don't like. Ask yourself, when was the last time u actually decided to listen to a song or a piece of music that u already know u didn't like. The reason we should is because there is actually a lot that we can learn from these songs that we don't like. Well, for me, its back to Schoenberg and Stravinsky...
stop singing love songs to prevent me from falling deeper in love with you.

Big Bang
Whats that smell in the air.....
Listen to that sound that cuts through the silent air....
Was that a shadow that just swept past.....
Its coming towards you...
Closer and closer....
Its a bird, its a plane.....
Its going to collide....
BANG!!!
Abang is BACK!!!
Hello to anybody who even bothers to read my blog nowadays, after spending $120 bucks buying an 120GB hard disk at the PC fair yesterday. I finally managed to swap out the dead hard disk in my laptop for this brand new one, installed windows and everything else and wahla... here I am, back again.
Yes I've been leeching on other people's computer just to check my email and simple stuff for the past few weeks. My heart felt GRATITUTE goes out to WEEI for his laptop for this past almost one month. You've suffered a lot but I shall not been bothering you anymore..
Thank GOD that stupid Dell decided not to reply my call about the new hard disk. They wanted to charge me 261 dollars for a 60GB hard disk while I bought my 120GB for only 120 bucks. Which should hopefully be able to last me another couple of years...
