:: sick is no fun - Day 2 ::

Right.. so day two was suppose to be depressing as hell
and my nose,
by now,
has become red, swollen, and constantly dripping mucus.
i practically can't feel my nose
majiam its dropped off, like MJ..
aww..
the tickling sensation...
ah-choo..
there it goes again while i'm typing..
and again.. argh!

i need a box/packet of tissue wherever i walk
around the house.. oh man!

my fever spiked to a high earlier in the day
38.4 degrees today..
still considered mild i guess as compared to yesterday's 39..
but after popping the pills
my temp fell to normal range..
and the bad bad sinus/flu started kicking in..
have been sneezing non stop the whole day
still feeling chilly throughout the day
but at least i'm perspiring when the fan is not on..
but if i on the fan..
i'll start sneezing and the cold kicks in..
haiz~

was lying on the bed the whole day
still did not manage to do any work until now..
feeling lethargic and sleepy the whole afternoon
but can't manage to sleep.
kept playing on my phone..

and sneezing..
3 repetitive sneezes..
4 repetitive sneezes..
and during the evening when i was watching TV..
the ultimate 9 continuous sneezes with no pause in between kicked in!
whoa..
my nose almost fell out really..

i even nose bled at least 3 times.. can't remember..
prolly due to my intensive sneezing..
and i coughed out blood filled phlegm around twice today..

haiz~

i really guess its H1N1..
but it could possibly be dengue fever too..
well well..

bless me..
ah-choo..

damn, my computer screen is filled with my sneezing output!!

:: sick is no fun ::

It's terrible being sick.
Sorethroat, fever, coughs, flu, headache..
It's unbearable and you just can't concentrate.
Even on the bus, I felt a weird sensation..
Sleepy, drowsy, and a cramped up head.
Argh..
My fever even reached 39.0 degree at one point,
Constantly cold n stuffy..
Can't breathe properly.

Finally my fever has subsided a little
And I'm beginning to sweat out the toxins within my body..
I've really nv gotten such high fever in a looooong time lo!

Now feeling really hungry coz the whole day I only managed to drink water
And steal some bites of little Jerry muffin
When my fever was not up..
And a sandwich at NP four leaves..
(the cold one, not the toasted one)
Was so tired n sleepy did not bother to go buy dinner lo.,

Just stole a 鸡蛋糕my mum bought.. Haha..
And it got my throat all choked up again with the irritating feeling.. Haiz..

Shall go sleep le..
Alot of assignments to do..
Mayb this happened for me to catch up with my projects..
But I still have assignments due later thus week
And it's group projects!! How???

Hope to recover soooon..

Sleep le hopefully tmr will feel better..

Btw, my uncle was rather joking when he diagnosed me to have H1N1..
Still dunno if it's true.. Hmm..

:: The Answer Is... ::

Just returned from stefanie's concert..
and it did make me think quite a bit..

been a rather hectic day,
attended a cooking class in the morning which I thought was rather "fei4"..
then went to dragon boating again..
felt good, although it can be a little tiring..
everyone has a passion
and weirdly, i seem to really want to get aquainted with watersport..
well well..
so back to kallang on saturdays, will be more positive, make friends..
and enjoy my saturday workouts + fun session + tanning session!!

The highlight of the day had to be Stefanie Sun Yanzi's 2009 world tour..
"The Answer Is.."
I am truly blown away by the show, completely!
it was awesome to the max, especially the STAGE!
its the most amazing stage I've seen in my entire concert watching life..
the show was so well planned, with the diamond cut background setting,
and endless changes..
It was a grand style concert I have never seen before!
and the costumes..
it made Stef shine like a confident, mature, radiant lady..


but i must still talk about the stage..
the many transformations and "ji guans" it has is simply amazing..
with just plain white light, it looks rather ordinary..
but when the strobe lighting comes on.. whoa!! tan4 wei2 guan1 zhi3 la!!
the whole lighting on the wonderfully down holed stage backdrop transformed the audience
into another fascinating world.. no bluff wor!
the different raisers and platforms were amazing..
the piano playing section was magnificent..
as stef "floated" in in a moving "cloud.." beautiful!
when it was near the ending.. the "rocks" by the side
was uncovered to reveal the great band who was working "backstage" throughout!

it was the best show I've watched..

the only gruntle i have was that there were not enough fast songs to get the audience standing on thier feet.. although i enjoyed all the songs..
i particularly did not really enjoy "green light" due to its arrangement.. abit la...

the final part when the stage extension moved out and rotated was another highlight..
and also when the image of her projected on a screen singing..

all these has to be experienced live at SIS for one to admire the whole beauty la!
seriously!

the title "The Answer Is.." was very cleverly brought out through the different segments..
but mainly, the key idea was that one should do whatever he/she wants to..
without much restrictions.. enjoying one's every moment, appreciating what he/she has..
that is the Happiness.. and that is the answer.. to life's never ending question..

I was inspired.. to take everything in my way..
to plan my daily live properly
to not waste any more time
and to try spending wisely from now on..
be a man that can be trusted and be a man of dignity..
excel in everything
at least attempt them..
don't give empty promises..
or dream too far out..
be realistic in the goals i set
and achieve them!

Be myself and be happy..
I hope that is the answer to my life's neverending question
and yours too!

:: I'm Back! ::

Hello everyone,

As time past, I really wonder who are the ones who do pop by my blog once in awhile
who really bother's readin my blog to know who I am and how i'm doing
or any interesting stuffs I've been up to in the days before..

well
I think I've let many friends who followed my blog down..
my blogging have drastically decreased in recent times
especially since my birthday tt time
My sincerest apologies..

well, just a few updates..

Its the end of week 11 at CMC in NP
and the assignments are beggining to pile up..
poster design.. photography portfolio..
psychology projects...
design portfolios...
film project... study into mass communication, effects and components..
chinese writings... my CCA at OurVoiceBox.sg..
preparation for Danny Yeo's
lessons and tests in presentation
(i'm gonna teach my class Mambo dance moves.. haha, researching it now!)

and it gets really stressful.. as much I have tried to do my job on time
however.. it always seem impossible.. oops.. end up doing many last minute works since..
I shall change that!

really need a good break and go out with my close friends..
prolly for a holiday
never done that before..
i still very very much look forward to going Taiwan..
that is my biggest dream!
wonder if it will happen this year...????

My injuries have been improving, even though I did nothing to it..
and will be back in action in July.. this month..
I'm getting geared up for writing another play in 24 hours on 18-19july at marina barrage..
and I'll be getting back to dragonboating as a form to train up and get a tan.. LOL!
as soon as.. next week! cannot be lazy anymore.. its time!
will be watching Sun Yanzi's concert on 11th July as well..

gave up my chance to be NDP Usher this year because I think I can't cope with my work
and the training period got me a little bit down, because those weeks were really tight
with projects and tests due then..
so, no NDP this year, But I still look forward to catching it on TV!!
(unless friends want to meet up for dinner on tt day la)

Oh ya!
I'm also really excited as plans are in place for my primary school friends to meet up sometime in August! can you believe it? my primary school friends whom imany i've not met for a good 10 years.. and its all due to the power of facebook, that we have the chance of getting back...

our proposed meeting for chestnut 4A got stalled along the way.. people are just too busy when they grow up la! hope to meet those long lost friends from chestnuts too!

well, after this ssemester, I'll be heading down to Vietnam for a youth expedition project..
really looking forward to it
might be a life-changing experience! gotta start planning for it soon..
(i'm a project leader for a self-esteem lesson for the poor children over there.. omg, how??)

With lofty ambitions to start my own fashion and lifestyle magazine is still fresh in my mind as ever
I need collaborators la! anyone who might read this and keen in helping my kick start this,
either just by a blog then move from there
or got lobang help me learn how to establish or handle such a magazine..
do get to me ya! haha!

on a sidenote
this new idea came to my mind during a lesson sometime tis week..
prolly cause I was having lesson for visual comm (film)
I thought that if I were not to be able to get good enough results to enter university
(for that I mean NUS FASS/SMU Social Science/NTU HSS or WKWSCI)
I might as well now use my knowledge and my passion in creative things
built up a nice portfolio in design and film and photography..
and hope pursue a degree in NTU ADM Art Design Media.. in film or photography..
orh.. the days in NTU CAC, Epiphany, Hall 4... orh.. i miss my NTU days!!
(mayb NUS is fun.. LOL!)

alright.. thats just a short update on what's been happening in my life..
promise to update more often..

(ps, do check out my other blog too for random updates on life notes and other interesting ideas.. go to: mrisaac's livejournal)

:: nobody nobody butchu ::

Came across this farny vid from Derrick Hoh 何维健。its really farny.. haven't seen him in a loooong time, but following his twitter so well, yup, hes doing his best over in taiwan..

watch and laugh!!!

:: retro ::

Recently
W has been randomly singing songs
which he said he has been waking up and humming to..
these old songs has some which are classic
and others are just random
he would then hunt for it on youtube
and then continuing to rest and snooze for a while on bed..

then during the day
he will pester me with these weird old songs
and ask me to entertain him by singing the songs..
without fail each day i meet him this two weeks
he will have some old old songs..
making me majiam a ge tai singer..

really.. with such songs like this.... dotz....



(apparently, this was taken at a Ge Tai at Eunos MRT, in feb 2008..)

and this...

:: 絶対彼氏 Zettai Kareshi ::

Its been a looooooong time since I last cried
not that I specifically remembered when that was
but I do remember it was because I broke up with someone..
see.. guys cry too when a good relation ship comes to an end ok..

just as well
it was sad for me
thus I cried when I saw a good relationship ended
as well as my relationship with this fictional character on the macbook screen
as I was watching Zettai Kareshi (chinese: 绝对情人)
currently seen on Channel U on Fridays at 1130pm.

well well..
its a Japanese Drama about Kronos Heaven, a high tech science company
and their latest technology, a robot dedicated to love,
Nightly Series 01.
It began when a temporary staff, Izawa Riiko, met Kronos scientist Namikiri-san
at a pub she frequents..
he "introduces" her to the super lovable robot
and there starts a 5 days free trial of the robot..
before long, a love hate relationship grows
way out of proportion
and then there is Riiko's boss
another uber handsome Asamoto Soushi
who begins to fall in love with Riiko and her choux creme
(wat we know as cream puff, the beard papa type..)

the story is suspense filled,
funny at times
and more oft than not
heartwarming
i grew overly in love with the characters during the 11 episodes
which I finished within 2 days
and also during the special finale
(which I understood why they created, but somehow I felt it was quite unnecessary)

I still am completely mesmerized by lead actor Tanjo Night
(played by速水直道Hayami Mokomichi),
whom I seriously think looks like Dylan郭品超。
Soushi san, played by水岛宏Hiro Mizushima,
is such nonchalence at the start,
but soon he will grow in you.
相武纱季Saki Aibu,the female lead, is rather natural..
bet you'll hate the devilish "good friend" mika san
whom plot takes awhile to digest.. (not a very clear character actually).
the comic moments of namikiri san is also something worth watching for.. hehe..

it brings back the good old passion for J-drama
since the days of Hideaki Takizawa.. Haha..
now tt i've learn a little Jap,
its fun watching J-Drama and understanding some terms in it
especially when Naito says.. yo kata (i understand)..
Wahahaha!!

although its a little dated, this series,
but its definitely worth the watch
I must thank Channel U for ignited my passion in J Drama again..

I'm watching Oh! My Girl, starring Hayami Mokomichi next!!!

:: moving on ::

I thought to myself as I was my loooong bus and train ride home
and I really happy?
wat really makes me happy?
i think these days of "waste"
and letting time dwindle away are certainly not the ingredients to happiness.

I need to challenge myself somehow
to step out of my comfort zone
and not be the lazy bum I have been all these 23 years

studying is about working hard to pursue your ultimate dreams
slacking and waiting for something to happen
you will probably pass
but thats by a stroke of luck

i have walked several wrong paths in my life
and enjoyed quite a bit of luxury already
why do i keep insisting on such a lifestyle?

so many times,
i've told myself that i've to buck up.
but more than ever
its said not done
i'm still in my comfort zone
sleeping.. going out, doing aimless things

change? where?
in attitude
in thinking
for a better life

there are so many things i need to change
to be better in behavious
stop putting aeroplanes
be a man of my words
stop making empty promises
don't over indulge in the good things that happen by
think before making a purchase, whether it's necessary
be sure of wat i can do before committing myself
then commit myself fully to it
try and really spend all your available time to my commitment
be a better boy
a boy that can be trusted
and can be a role model for people.

move on.

:: 放空 ::

是一个很奇怪地感觉
似乎一世界脱了节
那一瞬间,我脑子有感觉是到了另一个空间
顿时什么都想不起
什么也不知道
刚发生了什么都不了了之
稍候会做什么也捕打清楚
有种感觉,现在处生在哪里也不太清楚
世界停了电
何去何从都是个未知数
那段时间
周围地声音都好像知识杂音
自己再说话
也不怎么知道是在说什么

很可怕。。
silence.

:: Preceptions ::

Perceptions is the process whereby one becomes aware of the existence of an object or an event. In my point of view, it often is influenced by factors surrounding it, and more often than not, result in subjective opinions on that matter. One looks at something from their own perspective, they hold on to that perspective and angle, and believe strongly in it.

When opposing viewpoints are raised, one might react in two ways. The first being they react strongly against it, while the second being a change in viewpoint to follow the "majority" to "blend in".

This process of Perceptions involves three stages, including selection, organisation and interpretation.

In the array of information that is available to one, one often selects the information that stands out to him/her, and which has an impact of a certain degree to him/her. He/she thereafter organises thoughts of the particular information, sorting out the details that he/she has an opinion on, before giving his/her own interpretation on that information. This whole process actually happens in just a few seconds, but is imprinted in the mind for a very long time thereafter.

This perception created is strictly the viewpoint of one, and can be right or wrong.

To me, more often than not, I carry these "perceptions", and at many times, being biased, and might influence the people around me to these perceptions, negative or not. Especially in the case of stereotyping.

Being in a competitive society such as that in Singapore, and also being a "not-so-booksmart" person, I've had, at many points in life, steoreotyped different groups of people, and putting them in the negative light.

Back in my JC days, being from a bottom ranked JC, I often "talked bad" with regards to students from top ranked junior college, basing it on past knowledge and experiences of interaction. I would always label them as "aloof, arrogant, and "no-life"". It was only after in depth interaction with someone from a top JC, that I know my perceptions was wrong, and that I should not label and classify someone or a group so easily.

When I was in university, I was entered in a faculty which was dominated by "foreign talents". Many of these are scholars and are highly competitive. In the brief first few dyas I started school, and living in the hostel, I had terrible experiences with these Chinese nationals. This led me to stereotyping them and through conversations with friends, affected them, labelling and giving them negative nicknames. We would not see their "good", but to highlight their bad. They were classified as having bad dress sense, poor hygiene, uncouthed, etc. Me and my friends would instantly shun them on the streets and in the campus. In the later days when I was "forced" to do projects with a few of them, my impressions changed and was once again proven wrong.

As humans, we are prone to developing such perceptions about people, things and events, good or bad, but we should always try to be objective, and conduct perceptive checks before passing judgments on them. We should always try to be rational, and look at things from different angles, and accepting that there are different things and people in the world, things happen for a reason, and be able to look at things in different views.

:: 困 ::

被捆绑住的感觉真的很不好受。
当你神经紧绷的时候
你盼望的是自由

奇怪的是
当你太过自由
却似乎失去了原有的自我控制
这时候 感觉无助、彷徨、害怕
因为失去了的 找不回
错过的机会 不会回头
浪费掉的时间 不可能倒转
世界只会继续旋转


困惑
困难

戒 解 接 借
戒掉坏习惯
解开绷住的线
接开前路的门槛
借用世界的时间与机会

我不要在让生命控制我了

我要掌控我的一切
现在~未来~

:: drained ::

I feel drained
physically and mentally
especially mentally
out of creativity
out of ideas
practically feeling that there's no more space in my mind.

Once again,
I seem out of control of my own life
I am letting my studies and projects take control instead
and on the free times I have
I sleep..
because I am so deprived of it.

I have no social life,
almost zero.
I am not going out and enjoying my life as much
as I would like to
I am not seeing the world
and feel left out
desperately..

The world is just running on without me
I am trailing too far behind..
i need to catch up with life
to pursue what I really want
to unleash the creativity hidden within

I need time and control.

:: 谢霆锋《最后》成熟多了 惊喜少了 ::

文:林觉豪(学生记者)

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。

:: 容祖儿《A Time For Us》用心的音乐最动听 ::

文:林觉豪 (学生记者)
图:网络

出道10年的Joey容祖儿,刚推出了全新粤语专辑《A Time For Us》。刚获得2008年IFPI香港唱片销量大奖的Joey,在09年强势举行一连串演艺生涯10周年的庆祝活动,以这张广东大碟打头阵。《A Time For Us》以“我们的时期”为主题,收录了10首完美精彩的歌曲,呈现出粤语歌坛天后十足的唱腔与动感。

要在现今的乐坛打出个名堂,若不是有突出的外形,就是拥有绝佳的歌声,不然就是多才多艺,当创作型歌手。容祖儿却刚巧参杂在其中,外表不算太突出,歌声也不是特别好,但幸运的,碰到好的专辑制作班底,为她量身打造出首首动听金曲,一张张销量高的专辑。

这次《A Time For Us》也不例外。汇集了粤语歌坛中金牌音乐创作人和制作人,C.K.Yong,Eric Kwok和林夕等人,每首歌都让Joey有巨大的发挥空间。

Joey的专辑一大特征是传唱度高的K歌。主打歌“可歌可泣”就是个好例子。林夕的词加上C.K.Yong的优美曲子,听起来舒服之余,主旋律容易记得,听几次就能一次哼唱。

以Joey的知名度,广告代言不必多说。专辑就收录了3首Joey的广告歌。除了“可歌可泣”(百老汇电器广场广告曲),还有香港麦当劳广告曲“我所知的两三事”和可口可乐广告曲“开动快乐”。这两首快节奏的歌曲,调皮可爱。“开动快乐”让我想起王菲的“你喜欢不如我喜欢”,感觉却有点不同。口哨声是该品牌的特征,给人一种愉快的感觉,但本人觉得有一点别扭。
抒情歌曲方面,“搜神记”,“圆谎”和“时不兴我”都相当耐听。“It Doesn’t Matter”中,Joey歌声发挥很好,最能听出她的进步。“心贼难防”曲风新颖,玩出了一定的精彩,也表现出了Joey转音的实力,够新鲜。

专辑造型以非洲流浪民族为主题,附加的56页写真集是Joey迷必得拥有的。专辑整体制作用心,值得收藏。

这整张专辑再次让Joey尝试了不同的曲风,随着经验开始掌控不同的歌唱技巧。10年来累积的用心,让这专辑精彩,动听。

:: 吸收。反思。分析。- 非政治/人权?那又凭什么?::

这几个星期以来,最令我关切的新闻,就是关于缅甸扣压审判前领袖翁山淑枝的这件事。对很多人来说,或许翁山淑枝这个名字,是既熟悉又陌生的,因为,我们在过去的十多年,断断续续都听到这个名字,总是知道这位女士是的不屈不挠的政治领袖,但对她实际的情况,却大多一知半解。

在今天读到的一份保障报道,是我这几天来,最盼望读到的,但却同时令我感到非常失望。这报道就说明了缅甸政府对外界,尤其是美国和亚西安群国,对于缅甸所施加的压力,给予的回应。缅甸是由军士政府所管制的。而翁山淑枝,就是在他们眼里最大的威胁。这十几年来,军事政府得权之后,都在避免这让翁山淑枝带党出选选举,处处为难这位杰出的政治领袖,无论她是多顽强的支撑着,都似乎无效。这是民主吗?]

大约的解释目前的情况与事情的发展。翁山淑枝是于进5年前被扣压,以“政治”因素,违反条规,被判家中服刑。这段4年的家中服刑之前,翁山淑枝已在缅甸的Insein Prison牢房里“蹲”了一段时期了。这次的家中徒刑,原本已经将近到期,会在过去的26日被释放出来。就刚巧,在本月初的时候,有一位美国的记者“偷渡”过江到文山淑枝的湖边家中,并以“累”为理由,要求住在她家中。翁山淑枝原本不肯,毕竟是有可能触徒刑条规,拒绝了该男子,过后又已人道理由,“收留”了他两晚。 怎知此事被军方知晓,告她触犯条规,这次刑法,若罪名成立的话,是在度入狱长达5年。刚巧缅甸将在明年前举行民主大选,这一切,是巧合吗?]

过去的几天,连连发生了一些事。被扣压的翁山淑枝已开始出庭作证。在出庭的第一天,她已说明了自己的立场,表示是以人道的理由收留了该男子,并纯属给予他住宿。翁山淑枝更是坚持自己并没触犯任何的条规。在那之前,翁山淑枝首次被批准于一些国家的外交部官员与记者会面,但详细内容却是客观话语,似乎没有像是她会说的真正的话语,带有照稿说话的嫌疑。被扣压的这段日子,除了中国是保持中式立场之外,美国已经发言指责这次的事件。而缅甸的直接邻居,亚西安国家,都有意施加压力,提出了反对的异议。原本,亚西安组织个国是保持观望的态度,也曾经表示决不参与成员国的内部政治。但这次,其余的成员国都已表示立场,不鼓励继续扣压审判翁山淑枝。

昨天,缅甸的军方政府终于回话了。他们表示,这次扣压,绝对是内政法律的因素下扣压翁山淑枝,绝无政治或人权因素的干扰,更是提出立场说,决不向外界所施加的压力妥协,劝请其他国家避免插手,包括联合国世政府。

这样短短的新闻发布,令我非常难受。翁山淑枝到底犯了什么错?她的杰出才能,是众所周知的。怎么说,她也曾得过诺贝尔和平奖的加冕。若这一切不是因政权的因素,真的让人无法了解。

另一方面,文山淑枝在过去的十五年期间,当中有多达十三年是在监狱里,否则就是在家中服刑,这样过的。她坚持相信有着自由的一天,换回的则是世人的关心,自己的痛心。理想的和平与真理,何在?? 这样已外界视为非犯法的条列扣压他人,还连续已外界视为不成立的法则判罪他人,这不是触犯人权,是什么?

刚巧,在几个星期前也提到了一部本地话剧,由李邪所主演的“狂女日记”,还在当时说了此角色与翁山淑枝的相似度。当时说了,就算他被放出来,人家还是会已有色眼镜看她,觉得他是疯子。照情况看来,翁山淑枝这次判刑已相当确定是得服了。这样坐牢,也难免会成为政治疯子。
接下来,也只能密切关心局势的发展,为人权和政治权利保持己见。我相信,总有一天,缅甸军方政府会倒塌,由一个真正能带国家走入繁荣的政府取代。多久?我不敢想。希望,只能希望天理存在,放了翁山淑枝吧。
