I'm starting to like Dragonforce even more.
So bear with the music on the background.
They played Trail Of Broken Hearts on the Sunday, and the atmosphere was soo , kind of memorable. Because only a few people had their lighters with them, and it ended up with everyone waving along their arms.
Gosh, I feel so empty at home, no school, just going out to study and hang till our deaths.
Please , oh please will ____ and __ come.

Just got back from Dragonforce gig. It was.. one experience at least.

First, I had to be pulled aside at the entrance- to see how old I was. Bloody hell, how come Prune. gets to go through, she's 5 months younger than me! Even though I was clearly 18 this year, they gave me a red-coloured band to wear for kids. .......

So me , Prune. and Miniaho ran all the way in - to the stage. We got into the third line, which doesnt sound bad, but it actually is because I stand heads shorter than the dudes infront of me. Just great, this drunk fella stood directly behind me, and we waited for more than an hour (or so it seems), for the sound checks to take place.

Anyway, the drunk dude started pushing me forward, and I slid to the second row beside Minaiho. Prune. was cautioning me not to get too front up, which I should have listened to but as usual didnt.

Finally the band came out. Gosh Sam Totman looked awesome in person! I made eye contact with him and whoa! They began with Revolution Deathsquad, and that was when i was starting to feel it. And feel it, meaning the people all around me were starting to headbang and push me from all over. Some elbow knocked my head. I didnt know things were gonna get so rough.

Then this tr00 guy, turned and looked at me and asked if i was alright.He pulled me from the crowd and somehow I managed to find myself smack infront, leaning against the barriers. I thought I had the best position, but.. shit! During the second song, they got more wild, and people started moshing. I saw this dude pushing another guy and that fella rammed him over in return. I used my arms to support myself against the barriers, which was a bad idea because now both my arms are bruised. Idiot. Then there were the guards, they were pushing the barriers against the crowd, and the crowd in return was ramming and falling against the barrier- I was the mediator, and I thought I was going to be squashed to death just like the girl from the Smashing Pumpkins gig.

Once the guards pushed too hard and the front people fell including me. We all sat on each other and almost immediately, we were hauled back up to our feet. That part, was awesome. I must have looked like I was gonna cry because the guards kept a wary eye on me - like how embarrassing! One even shouted to the people behind to cool it because there's a lady here. >< . YAH and in the end I got pulled off from the front and sent all the the way back to watch the rest of the concert. Damn embarrassing man- I bet the guys infront must think I'm some crybaby. Damnit, but just incase COB or Kamelot comes to Singapore, I know where not to stand so I can enjoy their shows.

The sound wasnt really very clear because it was simply too loud. I could barely hear the solos but ZP's vocals were really powerful, oozing with cheese. Just before Through The Fire And The Flames, he divided the crowd into two sides, and for a moment I thought that he was gonna initiate the Wall of Death- and I was about to split. But then, of course it wasnt, This IS Singapore,after all.
My very first and hopefully not my last gig.

Its Friday, and everything's fine except that I dropped my bloody collar pin on my bedroom floor. Its like impossible to find it, because of the complicated tile designs. Great. If I'm lucky, I'll just step on the pin( because its connector isnt attached to it), and I wont need to buy another one from the bookshop.

EILEEN!! I cant believe you DO read my blog! :)(;
Just now, I let Farah listen to one of the songs from Kamelot. And surprise surprise, I think she genuinely liked it! 06a03 is a really cool class.. not that I'm saying that my current class isn't- its full of nonsense people like *coughs Jo the *cough Pro **coughs. Still getting used to these.
I have to admit I miss Mrs. R terribly. I thought I was so sick of her- my former GP+PW+Form teacher, and her naggy nature. But, with the teachers now, I realise how patient she is, a mother figure whenever we needed. She would join us for lunch occassionally, and she was there when I flunked my mid years. of course , she must've thought me a troubled young lady, because one day she sat with me and asked if I had any problems in particular.
I guess because I'm very shifty.

Hmm, I'm soo disappointed, after finding out the scandal regarding my most favourite teacher in PJC.*thinks

People who nag so much, deserve to be rebelled against. It's the intuitive feeling when all you get is the-housechores-this-and-the-stay-at-home-that.

This week I'm totally broke because i spent my all of my money on ehem.

/ever and ever the TRANCE SHIT OUTSIDE IS MAKING MY HEAD THROB.Not my whole head, just my right side cos it's the one facing the window while I'm doing homework/on the com. DUP DUP TO OUR DEATHS.

I did something unexplainable. I decided to cut off the nettings of my pencil box. The lime green one, which has been under my care since like secondary 3 or something. The one that , unfortunately, got stained by an uncapped orange highlighter. But still lime green pencil box weathered it all. And now, the netting's gone cos I've cut it off and it looks misshapen. ;(

Uncle Ringo's just outside my bedroom window. So I can practically hear the whoosh of the viking ride, along with screams. Who's he, the uncle? Its a FAIR from the UK, with all the high -priced rides - and they're parked right on the field across Causeway Point. My parents hate it whenever there are huge events there, because the 'noise' can be heard from over here. But I think its cool; it feels so lively.

I miss the times me and Prune. went on the viking in Escape (though it got boring), and Trasos-ed the whole park. Well most of the times it sounded like Trasooo!!!! because wind went into our lungs.

Anyway, for some reason, they're not just playing their usual trance music tonight (at the fair), there is another set of music alongside, overpowering (thank goodness), the trance-nation.
I reminisced when Gary Moore came on, and immediately opened my window to the max, so its like 'natural speakers'. They were playing old school stuff like Scorpions and The Eagles.. not bad! So I guess tonight my mp3 can take a rest.

Thursday, and looking forward to the weekends.
