:: luxury ::

I am not atas..
i'm a struggling poor brat who dreams of a life drowned in luxury
the post christmas sale didn't work out
the clothes are either ugly or that i can't afford
what sales is that.. bleah..

mixing with friends who dresses to kill
or dress to kill me and my faint heart
adorned to the nines
with the most premium
and lovely looking haute couture
which, unfortunately,
i can't afford.. sad..

i decided i shall not match them
because it is almost impossible
with my current occupation (zero income student)
maybe, maybe in the future..
i shall not give the impression that i am rich
because i am not
i shall not waste money
i shall have more practical aims
like.. loosing weight

alright
and so it shall be
i shall start loosing weight
and make myself look good
n ot necessarily in branded stuffs
if i slim down.. like.. alot..
i guess i will look good in just about anything
and i would look like i'm dressed in
all luxury items
when its me which shines.. yes..

no more useless new year resolutions that i can never resolve
i shall make promises to myself
and targets
which are really achievable..

for a better (if not the best year in my life) 2010!

:: 东运会总结—新加坡健儿凯旋归来•女飞鱼成吸金女王 ::

文：林觉豪（学生记者）

第二十五届东南亚运动会在寮国完美落幕，新加坡团队（Team Singapore）凯旋归来，猛夺33面金牌，30面银牌和35面铜牌。团队也在运动会上刷新多个记录，尤其是游泳方面，就包下了6个接力赛中的5面金牌，全也都创下新赛会记录。

两年一度的东运会主要是让区域的运动健儿有机会发挥所长，也是国与国之间促进沟通的一道桥梁。今年，新加坡团队就派出了192名运动选手参与18个体育项目。

运动会一开场，新加坡国家水球队就夺得了金牌，也创造了记录，是团队的第23面东运会金牌，无敌的团队奠定了他们在东南亚水球界的地位。

 

 

这次，新加坡派出的团队人数与参选项目比往年少，主要的原因，是因为这是寮国第一次举办东运会，场地与资源有限，项目也因此比往年少。这也是新加坡派出平均年龄最年轻的团队，共有99名健儿在21岁以下。90名初次参赛的选手都得到了不错成绩，其中就夺得了23面奖牌。

乒乓选手赛场大风光

 

 

 在所有运动项目中最亮眼的运动项目之一，就是我国的乒乓团队，勇夺12枚奖牌。乒乓团队逐渐强大，年复一年都取得不错成绩。女乒乓员更是抱回了会上所有的金牌，单打打、混合打全扫空。最受注目的就包括女单和混合打的总决赛，场上的双方都是新加坡团对成员。冯天微和高宁都在场上扬威。

新加坡运动百万大奖赏

新加坡为了鼓励与促进体育方面的发展，数年前推出了百万大奖赏计划，奖励在运动场上扬威的新加坡运动健将。奖金多寡依照运动会的权威性，和项目的选手人数。刷新国家或赛会记录的表现也赢得选手们一定的奖金。

这次东运会就创造出多名吸金的运动选手，其中两名女泳将就夺得非一般的成绩，各夺得4万元。

柯婷文＋陶李 扬威东运会泳池

 

          第25届东运会中表现最亮眼的亮位，莫非柯婷文和陶李这两位女飞鱼了。游泳团队在这次赛会猛夺14枚金牌，其中柯婷文和陶李就个夺5枚个人项目金牌，也同时刷新了多项项目的赛会记录。

其中，年仅17岁的柯婷文就在第三次出赛就夺得如此骄人的成绩，来届的东运会应该将继续杀很大。柯婷文也被列为本届东运会新加坡团队最佳女运动员。

另外，新加坡首个杀入奥运会游泳总决赛的泳手陶李，也不是泛泛之辈，同样取得亮眼佳绩，与婷文同样的成为本届东运会最高奖励4万元的得主。

其他表现优异的体育项目包括武术、高尔夫球、马来传统武术、跆拳道、桌球、射击和田径等都取得非一般成绩。

 

 

总的来说，我国健儿在本届东运会上的表现突出，年轻小将的实力更加不可忽视。只要持之以恒，我们绝对有理由相信我们的健儿会取得更傲人的成绩。让我们一起期待下一届东运会的到来吧！

:: Zettai Kareshi Special ::

I wanted to post a voice log of my emotions
immediately after i rewatched the ending of Zettai Kareshi Special
its my 3rd or 4th time watching le
but i still cried
and was in no mood of typing out my emotions
hence i did a voice log on my trusted iPhone (aka Matthias)
haha

i was crying
i cried until nobody's business
i cried till my eyes were swollen and my lower eyelid hurt
i wept like i never wept before
maybe less than the first time i watched..
still..
its touching
no word can explain
you should watch it yourself

really
i dun cry easily
i didn't cry as much when i failed my exams
i never even cry like tt when my best friend died (though i did cry.. )
i have never let a single tear drop each time i broke up with my girl/boy friend(s)

it is touching
really..
the show and its magic
when Night (nai-to-kun) told her that he is leaving and to be gone for good
to be demolished
and that is because he understood
as a robot, that he can't grow old with her and
his only mission was to love her
and that she deserved someone better..
that was the magic
when he departed
and asked her to turn away
all my hair stood
pulses spread through my body
and tear starting accumulating
and rolling..

:: OVB _ Beauty and the Beast 《美女与野兽》：颠覆传统 巅疯庆圣诞 ::

文：林觉豪（学生记者）
图：W!ld Rice剧团

      传统的童话故事，往往都是英雄救美，白马王子拯救受难的美丽公主。但编剧Alfian Sa’at偏选择了《美女与野兽》非传统的概念，再把他搞乱，以全新搞笑夸张的手法，呈献给大家一部适合全家大小收看的音乐剧。

    这一部《美女与野兽》是W!ldrice剧团年度欢乐音乐剧，由去年大受欢迎的Snow White《白雪公主》原班人马再度出击，把大家熟悉的童话故事大闹一番，带给大家两个半小时的欢笑之余，也传达重要的讯息给小朋友们。

      这是Alfian第二次写圣诞音乐剧（Pantomime），对这一门艺术有了一定的了解，也能创作出更好的歌词。Alfian表示，今年选择把《美》改编，主要是因为认为故事中的女主角很特别，够英勇，是少数的女“英雄“。

      由本地电视与喜剧明星Hossan Leong导演的《美》，连续《白》的风格，动作夸张，大用舞台灯光与特效，这次也加入了更多的互动，让观众参与故事其中。

      W!ld Rice剧团这次的《美》讲述一名富有的年轻男子（国际舞台巨星R J Rosales饰）与他家人，在多年前的一个生日聚会上，被一位女魔下了毒咒，全部都变成了家中的家具物品，而该名男子则变成了巨大的怪兽。男子原本是个 温顺的男子，变成野兽后，因为无法接受，而变的脾气暴躁，自卑心作祟。唯一能解除魔咒的方法，就是得到一位真心爱自己的美女的吻。

      另一个镇上，则住着一位富有爱心的美女（Emma Yong饰）。她家虽然有钱，但她不贪心，不像她那两位总是欺负她的姐姐（由蔡恩莱和Darius Tan反串演出）。一天，她们爸爸要到镇外去办事，姐姐们都要求爸爸帮她们买名牌物品，美女却只希望爸爸能为她找回一颗美丽的玫瑰花，而最重要的是爸爸能 平安的回来。

她爸爸出外回来时，在路上看见了一颗非常精美的玫瑰花，而决定去采，没想到，这朵玫瑰花是野兽的心爱之花。野兽为了惩罚美女的爸爸，要求他把家中一位女儿送它做伴。

      故事后续发展精彩有趣，除了原著提到的素材，剧中更出现了一般懂得武功的混混，是女魔的儿子的帮派，被派来扰乱一切，不让美女爱上那野兽王子。故事高潮迭 起，当中除了由浪漫爱情之外，还有精彩武打场面，更是有教育意义，提醒小朋友和大朋友不要乱摘路边的花草和要爱惜动物。

      如之前的圣诞音乐剧，这次的《美》也加入了今年时事新闻元素与口头禅，如之前红极一时的“Boomz”和“Shingz”，还有乘机开一些政治玩笑，但全都是为了好玩，博君一笑。

      音乐总监Elaine Chan创作出非常不错的歌曲，但慢歌胜过与快歌，让人留下较深刻的印象。服装设计方面，五彩缤纷，配合近乎完美的卡通般舞台设计，让整个演出活灵活现，有如在童话故事中。

      单看这部《美女与野兽》，精彩十足，非一般的家庭飨宴。虽没有Disney动画版的感人，也比去年《白雪公主》较为少一些的“哇“指数，但还是一部非常值得一家大小，或配一群朋友去看的舞台剧。

 

这个圣诞，就一起大声笑，陪同美女、野兽和他们的家人一同狂欢吧！

 

:: 开心就好 ::

Love is a vicious cycle.. (Jasen Tay said)
And i can't agree more..
You fall in love.
you quarrell..
he betrays you..
you forgive..
he continues..
you hate him..
for awhile..
and you love him again..
and soon, the passionate kisses are gone..
it becomes boring.
you fall out of love, with him..
and you crave for more love..
and you want more..
then you love, again..

my relationships in the past few years are really interesting
from friends
to very good friends..
to a sudden feeling for one another
love love love
then he loves me like crazy
and i love him like theres no tomorrow..
then it forms and drops into a routine
there is love, but it seems normal
like married couples after years..

then another friend appears
and i think its interesting
i see the current relationship going nowhere
so.. i skip and hop boat
bad bad..
but the "ex" dun really seem to get angry
weird, i might think
but i'm glad it didn't turn into something ugly (twice, in fact)

now..
back to square one.
i'm in love, again..
some passion..
same passion? i don't know.
but i know we will love each other for a while more
though i hope it will be for long..
maybe..
forever..

to my dearie..
sorry if i hurt you
i've learnt
to treasure you
thank you for being who you are
and for sharing your heart and love with me
thank you for not digging into the past
and willingness to accept me again
i thank you for who you are
and our love.. :)

i know i am a bad bad boy
but thank you for wanting me
maybe these unexplainable things
is what we call.. love...

:: <<寂寞，好了>> ::

拼命的上网 
闷坏的胸口让我 
想大声 的呐喊 

我努力不放 
你冷淡 你让分手 就这样 
我连做梦也感觉受伤 

一年过了 还是一天 
计算着慌张 
计程车上的音响 
我们最爱的情歌 
这一刻却重重击破思念的心脏 

夜深了 我怎么办 
寂寞了 谁在身旁 
心情变的好复杂 
想她 念她 恨她 

一个人 你害怕吗 
细数过 漫天星光 
说过永远不分开 
多假 多假 多假 
让记忆长出翅膀飞翔 
心放空了 寂寞好了 

坚强外表下 
我脆弱 情人节开始失常 
别人庆祝 我却很失落 

秋天过了 冬天漫长 
欢愉而感伤 
我们天真的勇敢 
我们追求的梦想 
舍不得也只能收藏旅行的时光 

夜深了 我怎么办 
寂寞了 谁在身旁 
心情变的好复杂 
想她 念她 恨她 

一个人 你害怕吗 
细数过漫天星光 
说过永远不分开 
多假 多假 多假 
让记忆长出翅膀飞翔 
心放空了 寂寞好了 

寂寞 感冒 全都可以好的 
爱多甜 伤多痛 都释放 

夜深了 我 怎么办 
寂寞了 谁在身旁 
心情变的好复杂 
想她 念她 恨她  

一个人 你 害怕吗  
细数过 漫天 星光  
说过永远不分开  
多假 多假 多假  
让记忆长出翅膀飞翔  
没有你  
心 放空了  
寂寞 好了

Totally totally dig this song. can liten to it over and over and over and over and over and over again..

last check on iTunes.. listened for 259 times le.. Hahaha!

Evan rocks! 

:: 寂寞，好了 ::

Here's singing to you my favourite song.. from Evan Yo 《寂寞，好了》
And with this, wishing you a Merry Christmas!

:: 孤单的很需要另一个同类 ::

爱收了又给我们都不太完美
梦作了又碎我们有几次机会

去追
不晓得为什么爱又稀少又昂贵

:: love n addictions ::

i find it weird
but its true..
爱屋及乌
and you get addicted and loving the thing that your lover likes/loves

like how i loved Domo when i was together with W
and his insane love for it
and Lego figurines
and running and gymming
and many other things
they all turned into an addiction

and when i was with P for the short period of time
i fell in love with starbucks
because of his addiction to it
and i started picking up his expansive taste
in a bid to be like him
following him
being so very into quirky fashion

and i remember when i was with vinc
we often when to get drinks and cakes
that we both love so much

well well...
i need to develop a thinking of my own
maybe, just maybe..
influence tohers to love what i love..

now.. what do i really like/love myself???

:: responsibilities ::

I've reach a stage that i feel i need to take responsibilities. but before that..
i need opportunities. really. i need the chance to make the money.
i'm in dire need.

i started teaching tuition.. teaching an AT English. and yes, the lesson was conducted in mandarin.
luckily i learned translation, and new the simple terms like verbs, nouns, grammar, vocabulary, passive and active voices in chinese. it was tough, but I hope i am able to manage, and i'm of help.

i secretly enjoy teaching.
so maybe the teaching track really is what I am suppose to do..
another round.. maybe in the future.

my bills are piling up and i can't run away from them anymore
i'm too much a spendthrift and its time i woke up
and earned my own money..
well..
i'm already a 23 year old and i can't keep depending on my mum
maybe a little
but i hope to be more financially independent in the near future.

on a separate note
i realise i'm really not good as i think i am
and its sort of a wake up call
to work harder and not keep thinking i am excellent
i shall create space for improvements in terms of my work
or shall i say there's loads to be improved
gotta keep working on it..

in Singapore
cash is really important
as well as action
all talk no action is a nono..
i have got a million ideas and thoughts
but easier said than done
i believe,
even if i'm wrong, did something incorrectly
i should be humble
and make the necessarily changes
and be more lenient to other like how i wish others to be upon me
accept others comments and keep improving
no one is right forever
keep an active mind and
enjoy every step i take in life

i shall reflect more
and improve more
and be more responsible for my every action
i'll really try

any body has brothers/sisters/nieces/nephews/friends who need tuition>?
or sponsor to help my dream of setting up my own music studio?
or help start off my own magazine?
or to emply me as a singer..
or..... or.... or....

:: my mind is about to burst ::

have been feeling unwell for days, probably weeks. headache. then i was sick. really. with fever and all.

then i was alone. felt lonely. and then the decision to be alone.

away from someone i thought was right.

not that he is not good. just that, we were not meant for each other.

nothing unhappy. really.

he is a carefree person. he lives a life of clubs and gym and partying and nights.

not me. i am a student who loves all these. but i'm not entitled to them.

i have my mother to think of. i can be living by myself. i don't have the financial support.

i can't afford the luxury styles.



we shall be good friends. really. better than before.

and we'll be happier.

but i think i still need... some love...

its W's birthday today...

:: one end ::

One end spells the start of another story
I don't feel down.
I feel happy.
Because I have experienced it before.
And I have no regret.
At least I know this person.
And that we are not meant for each other.
Adapting is tough.
We were good friends.
We will be even better friends now.
We've seen too much of each other.
ANd to treasure one another as friends. Solemates. BFFs.
Just not as lovers.
Maybe another type of love we share.

Be happy:)

:: anniversary ::

As part of World Aids Day events, Action for Aids held two exclusive screenings of this special short film commisioned by them, directed by Royston Tan and written by Alfian Sa'at, starring Shane Mardjuki, Jae Leung and Kelvin Ong.

The story goes like this..

Wai Kit (Kelvin Ong), a 23-year-old undergrad living with Justin (Shane Mardjuki), his 27-year-old boyfriend, are about to celebrate their first anniversary together. Justin makes a suggestion as to how to celebrate their first anniversary but was met with a luke warm response from Wai Kit.
Following a call from Jimmy (Jae Leung), Wai Kit wants to move out of Justin's house, leaving Justin wondering what has gone wrong between them.

"Anniversary" is a story of love, of what trust mean and the need to find out the truth. "Anniversary" will touch your heart and remain in your mind long after viewing.




The exclusive screening was held yesterday to two full house crowds at Sinema. Issues raised includes how to pass on the safe sex message and getting tested, and avoiding drugs and group fun, all these messages over to the younger crowd. The short film, unfortunately, got a R21 rating and hence was limited to a more mature crowd. How then, can there be less in-your-face method to bring it to the younger gays in society who might be falling victims into it?

Hope that there will be more screening of this film, both from artistic point of view and advocacy, to show this wonderful show to touch people, as well as subtlely spread the message.



(I was tricked to attend the event because I did not know, no where from the site, that this was a AfA Aids event. I went just based on the fact tt it was a royston tan short film. Damn, i should have done more research.)

:: high life ::

There are things in life which are influential. It makes who you are, how you live, and how others perceive you.

There's the brands that make out who you are.
There's the places you go which defines you.
There are things you own which decides the place you stand in society.
There are the photographs and people around which say whether you are a who's who in town.

There's the high life.

There are the fashionistas.

I thought it would have suited me.
With an "elite" bunch of friends who's all out there, dressed to be seen, meeting people who blow air kisses around and what's not. The posh nosh.

Well. Been there done that. And sadly, currently, I'm not that, and probably don't wish to be.

I can't afford.
I'm not a filthy rich kid who only lives on threads by Adidas originals and Armani Exchange. I can't seem to dream of being in a tank top costing a whopping $189 to do my workouts. I tried. I really did. I'm exhausted. My pockets exhausted.

Reality check. Done.

Marc Jacobs? No
Emporio Armani? No.
Dior? No.
Dolce n Gabbana? No.
Y-3? No.
Louis Vuitton? No.
Gucci? No.
Prada? No.

Labels don't make the man. Really. If I really need to look expansive to look good, I'd rather not look good. I just need down to earth friends around me who accept me fir who I am.

Really.

I think affordable garbs can make you look good too.

Good looks are based on perceptions. It's either we persist on living by these perceptions, or we live our own lives.

Drinking n clubbing? Cool? Maybe once in a while. It's not something cheap. The entry, the clothes you need to be in. The partying. The late night cab fare. I should just trounce it.

Really.

Thinking through life and it's ultimate meaning to me. Do I really need to fit into society's conventions to be accepted, to be "cool", to be mister popular? Why do I even need that? Forget about it.

It's time I lived a life. O F M Y O W N.

:: OVB _ 谢霆锋《最后》成熟多了 惊喜少了 ::

 

阔别乐坛四年，谢霆锋再次推出全新国语专辑《最后》。听出岁月带来的沧桑，却没加入太多新惊喜。沧桑嗓音仍是特征，在摇滚快歌中发挥得淋漓尽致。

专辑中收录了九首新歌以及一首粤语版歌曲“Tonight”。近年来事业重心放在电影，这张专辑比较像是这些年的电影主题曲精选集。

当中就包括“可以可以吗”和“终点站”。主打歌“终点站”与歌迷们分享他的爱情观，描述着不离不弃的爱情，Nicholas更把歌深情献给妻子张柏芝。

经过人生历练的谢霆锋，明显的在多首歌曲中表示的更成熟稳重。专辑曲风与概念以航空母舰为主，配合着飞行导航者的造型，表现出Nicholas的酷，霸气十足。

开场曲“Tonight”，是首韩语翻唱曲。摇滚曲风强烈，但谢霆锋似乎无法掌控好，在主歌部分，音域偏低，独特标准国语发音更是听来有点辛苦。反而是粤语版“Tonight”，唱得较自然，更有感觉。“新雅廊”和“别管我”很有态度，仿佛回到刚出道时的那种豪爽态度。

抒情歌曲“最后的爱”和“不敢的天才”中，谢霆锋充分表现出浓郁的情感，深情表演的慢歌都相当耐听。值得一提的是，“最后的爱”由林夕改编的词，额有画面感，是久违的典型谢式情歌。

Soler与林夕联合创作的“好样”太“Soler”，虽谢霆锋已尽力表现出自己的rock韵味，却似乎走不出创作人的阴影。

专辑整体来说相当完整，由谢霆锋联合制作，听得出他的想法，更感觉到他的努力。很希望这不会是他的“最后”，相信将来能更有突破与惊喜。

 

:: OVB _ 《神灵狩 Ghost Hound》高素质音效 挑战心理极限 ::

故事内容

在 距离电脑发达前，在那个被称为现世的世界中仍然残留日本的原始风景。在一个偏远的小城市，古森太郎、大神信、中岛匡幸这三个中学生都有着自己无法忘记的过 去。于是，三人出于不同的理由，他们的魂魄由现世来到了幽世。在那里冒险的三人渐渐知道了很多自己并不愿意去了解的秘密……

动画与音效水准一流

2007年秋季于日本播出的《神灵狩－Ghost Hound》， 是士郎正宗与Production I.G公司一起合作的，继《威尔贝鲁物语》后的第二部片子，也是为了纪念Production I.G公司成立20周年的庆祝活动中的一环。

从大阪艺术大学美术学部油画专业毕业的士郎正宗，因《苹果核战记》、《攻壳机动队》等作品而名闻遐迩。目前已经有很多人表示，冲着士郎正宗的旗号，也一定会收看这部《神灵狩- Ghost Hound》的。

整部剧最突出的为背景音效，与动画配合无间，带出了一定的惊耸感觉。22集的动画片故事发展较为缓慢，但故事中的角色都得到妥善处理，都有相当大的发挥和发展。

结局稍显草草了事

部分迷离、部分心理挑逗的Ghost Hound，当中也参杂了一点超自然的元素，题材新颖有趣。故事诉说有理，全剧成功的激发观众的情绪，既兴奋有紧张，唯独结局处理不当，让人感觉有点怪怪的哀伤。

故事内容概括范围非常广泛，角色也有点太多，观众难免会觉得22集太短，似乎过于浓缩。最扣人心弦的，是所采用的阴森背景特效，以及剧中营造出的类似氛围。这其中也运用了流畅的故事发展，让观众自己补充剧集中的小空洞，而玄机确保真相要到最后才会揭晓。

《神灵狩－Ghost Hound》或许因为不恰当的结局，而被批为具瑕疵的一刻宝。但剧集的大半部可看性非常高，就可惜没把故事完整交代。

这是一部值得看的剧集，但你要有一定的耐性才能完整欣赏。若你不介意被一级音效困在充满悬疑的世界里，就来让《神灵狩－Ghost Hound》挑战心理能耐极限吧！

:: OVB _ 水球·猛男·东运会不败的记录 ::

说到新加坡的体坛，大家或许认为表现最杰出的体育项目不过就是乒乓球和游泳那两项。其实，新加坡有个体育项目，成绩骄人，曾有过22次不败的记录。这就是水球（Water Polo）。

新传媒5频道不久前开始播映全新立志偶像剧《水球男孩》（Polo Boys），掀起一股少见的水球热，再加上东南亚运动会（SEA Games）即将开战，大家都把焦点放在帅气英勇的水球猛男上。

对许多人来说，水球是一项相当陌生的游戏。在这就为大家上一堂水球速成班，让大家认识这项精彩刺激的体育吧！

 

水球怎么玩？

每场水球赛都是在较深的游泳池中举行，池深至少1.8米。两边的球门宽2米，高90厘米。泳池大小分男女赛事，男子比赛泳池是30米X 20米，女子比赛泳池则是25米X 20米。

水球比赛中，两队必须有7位成员，其中6位是球员，另一位则是守门员。每一场球赛分4节（periods），根据奥林匹克运动规则，每一节长达7分钟，第一节和第二节、第三节和第四节比赛之间可休息2分钟。场外替补人员最多为6人，任何一方开始比赛前，均可换人。

比赛进行时，除了守门员外，任何人不得用双手触碰球。运动员都必须穿戴特质头帽以保护头和耳朵。球员的头帽分为蓝、白两色，把双方运动员区分开来，而守门员头帽则是红色。

比赛时，以球体穿过球门线为得分。得分后，双方队员应回到本方半场，由失分一方队员在中线的中心点开球。任何时候，一方控球时间不得超过35秒。运动员们通常都用特别的“前爬”泳式。在水中，抢球是常见到的事，但若裁判认为选手动粗，可能会被罚退出。

 

水球猛男帅不帅？

新加坡水球队在东运会交出漂亮的成绩。至2007年为止，我国水球男队已连续获得了22次冠军这骄人的不败记录。即将来临的东运会，男子水球队将再次出击，希望再次夺标，摘下第23面金牌。

在那之前，我们先来看看新加坡国家男子水球队中的几个养眼猛男吧！

国家男子水球队现任队长罗南（Luo Nan）

曾是学校水球队出生的水球队队长罗南，英姿飒爽，黝黑肌肤。这将是他第三次代表我国参与东运会。

 

国家男子水球队队员叶仁凯（Yip Ren Kai）

已多次代表我国参赛的叶仁凯样子成熟稳重，在《水球男孩》中客串一角。

 

 

国家男子水球队队员 林耀祥 （Lim Yao Xiang）

:: OVB _ 陈奕迅最新专辑《上五楼的快活》 review ::

K歌之王陈奕迅最新专辑《上五楼的快活》继续以独特演义方式和十足的态度，带出这十一首歌曲，唱出不同凡响的快活，还带来了不少惊喜！

续去年的畅销大碟《不想放手》收录一系列温情牌情歌后，《上五楼的快活》主要以中慢版情歌为主，收录一系列easy listening的歌曲，K歌指数消退。

E神不是个技巧歌手，在这张专辑中更为明显。态度唱腔在如《心的距离》和《这样的一个麻烦》中突现，情绪容易随着歌曲被带动。

电台第一波主打却还是以较安全的《给你》，听起来舒服，可算是典型的庸懒E式情歌。

专辑名称取为《上五楼的快活》，代表的是Eason在阁楼的录音空间中的休闲创作空间，在这里创造出这一系列歌曲，在这里开心的演唱，活出非一般的快活。这次虽只交出一首作品，但主要焦点似乎放在一些崛起的音乐创作人身上。

苏打绿的青峰就贡献了两首吴式歌曲《这样的一个麻烦》和《谋情害命》，金曲歌后蔡健雅送上了一首《多少》，以及范晓萱也创作出一首《你为什么哭了呢》。首首歌曲都含有特色，但也随着Eason的演义加分不少，唱出另一份滋味。

专辑最令人惊喜的，应该是两手非华语歌曲。Eason唱英语歌曲已不是第一朝了，但《Nothing Ever Happened》感动满分，林伟哲的曲简单，林嘉欣的词加上了彩色。

Eason广东歌听多了，诠释闽南语歌曲或许是第一次。乱弹的阿翔创作的《我甲你》rock味十足，Eason唱得相当自在，只嫌整首歌含有浓厚的“伍佰味”。

总的来说，《上五楼的快活》是一张精心创作与录制的专辑，音乐总类繁多，适合不同口味的听众，商业味与艺术味恰当调和。不凡一同和Eason上五楼去休息一下，快活一下。

潘裕文：梦幻的思想家

 

文：林觉豪（学生记者）

星光四少中第二位推出完整专辑的潘裕文，延续之前的EP《夏雨诗》，打玩文字游戏，这次专辑名称《梦。想。家》，代表着Peter为一个拥有伟大的梦，也勇敢想恋家的人。

   首先，Peter Pan的唱腔独特，干净而梦幻，轻柔却也带劲，辨识度相当的高。制作人就利用了他那把温柔的嗓子，选手了十首潘式情歌，配合简约的背景音乐，衬托出潘裕文的歌声。

这十首歌曲的特点就在于歌词有诗情画意的境界，有深度，却也易懂，容易让听众进入情况。

首 播主打《最想做的事》轻轻柔柔的，大打温暖牌。但危险就在于高音部分有点太过像林志炫。简单旋律却拥有饱满的温情，相信是情侣们的首选温馨歌曲。与徐宛铃 合唱的《幸福的时光》可圈可点，两个梦幻的声音应该是完美的配合，可惜听不出什么火花，幸福不到家。十首词都出自姚若龙之手，但配合不同的曲，歌词的意境 大不相同。《小甜甜》甜而不腻，《近在眼前》却看不到，却听出潘裕文标高音表的有点吃力。

较独立的两首歌可算是《没有人是傻瓜》和《要走了》。前者为带有几分态度的歌曲，清新的摇滚曲风Peter也能顺心的尝试。后者是蔡敏旻佑的创作，慢版英式摇滚味道十足，感动上场。

《梦。想。家》十首歌听下来，虽不会让人想家，但会让人持有梦想。或许最后一首歌曲最能总结整张专辑的情绪，听了还真《好想放假》。
推荐：我选的天空，最想做的事，小甜甜，热血加满，好想放假。

:: 专心 ：：

Something I always seem to be unable to do.
If something I just can't do or find..
After awhile, I'll simply give up.
It's bad.
But I'm kinda used to it
*guilty*

Busy with fashionisiac
I must concentrate n 专心 there
Dun blame me if I don't post here often.
Coz blogging is starting to put a strain on me,
Beacuse I'm too old or too stressed? I don't know.
You need to think n organise thoughts before reflecting..

Let's just take things one at a time..

:: getting used ::

to heavy workload
realised i've got assignments and e-assignments not done
simply coz my internet is down
(coz i screwed up my bill payment)
and i'm suffering

i lost my sense of urgency
and in dire need to find it back
like immediately
shall be a hardworking person
no more slacking, shopping and sleeping
(the 3 S word vices)
and do my assignments and projects well
and submitted on time
and completed to my best ability
to love my work!

i need to get used to the new change that has taken place
and treasure the loved ones around me
esp the little P that dotes me
and showers me with endless care
and concern for my everything

i shall in return learn to give back
and care more for him
and be the little boy that treasures him..
