In the mix - MY TOP PICKS:

23 April 2008

So we had a night out and went a little crazy with the camera whoring, but it's these things that make it all the more memorable. Awesome company = awesome night, enough said.



Here everyone is trying to find themselves a "train look". It's a long story, but somehow we've all patented one. Except Jem of course, that just his normal look. Lol.



I think about the amount of digital photos that pile up after everyday events...how many photographs will I possibly have in 5 years! Jeez...when I have a kid, almost every moment of my life would have been recorded, in that digital photo sense of course. I don't want my kid to see all the stupid things I've done!



Sure, I'll laugh now, 5 years down the road. But when my kid's 13 at pulling at any string to be able to use as an excuse against me as a parent...boy oh boy, that would not be good. Hahaha.

And I will admit, I've done some extremely stupid things in my life. Live, learn and let live.

I'm in a good place now, but life will always be like a yo-yo. We all have our ups and downs. Like you tell me, I just gotta hang on.


Baby I'm your light and I'm your shelter
Baby you are mine
I could freeze the time
Keep you in my kitchen with me forever
Gonna be a pie from heaven above
Gonna be filled with strawberry love
Baby don't you cry
Gonna make a pie
And hold you forever in the middle of my heart.

Gonna bake a pie from heaven above
Gonna be filled with butterscotch love
Gonna bake a pie from heaven above
Gonna be filled with banana creme love

Baby don't you cry
Gonna bake a pie
Hold you forever
Hold you forever
And hold you forever in the middle of my heart.

When the world is gray and bleak
Baby don't you cry
I will give you every bit of love that's in my heart
I will bake it up into a simple little pie�

Baby don't you cry
Gonna make a pie
Gonna make a pie with a heart in the middle
Baby don't be blue
Gonna make for you
Gonna make a pie with a heart in the middle.
Gonna be a pie from heaven above
Gonna be filled with strawberry love
Baby don't you cry
Gonna make a pie
And hold you forever in the middle of my heart.

Baby here's the sun
Baby here's the sky

This may be a little overdue, but we went for the Maroon 5 concert and I must say I was quite disappointed, right from start to end. We were all so looking forward to the concert considering One Republic was opening for them and they had at least 2 hit singles out on the radio. I was all set to be crooned by a bunch of guys. We got the bunch of guys, crooned, I think not.

One Republic was surprisingly and most deafeningly whiny...in a Coldplay kind of way, just worse. What happened to the soulful voice we hear on the radio? I think he tried to hard to prove he could sing liveeeeeeee. That was how he ended his sentencessssss. (Think pitch going up and down) They performed that way for half an hour. Woo-hoo. Not. And another half an hour after that only did Maroon 5 appear on stage.

Ridiculous. Gates opened at 6.30pm, M5 came on at fucking 9pm. They were on for only slightly over an hour. What a waste of my fucking dough. $92 for whinging opening acts and a short performance??? I felt awfully cheated. Especially when we were all so hyped up for it. The 1st thing my sister said when Adam Lavigne appeared on stage was "Couldn't he wear something nicer, dress up a bit?". Jeez.

The most entertainment we got was this "siao lao char bo" (crazy old woman)  dancing around like an idiotic maniac, with moves so cruelly funny I almost dropped to the ground laughing. I swear, the 3 of us could not take our eyes of her. I probably made Jem crack up more when I try to imitate her cool moves.

Whatever it is, whenever I hear M5 on the radio now, I don't feel like singing to it anymore. Don't get me wrong, he sang live really well. But I didn't feel his performance at all...the passion, energy, entertainment etc etc, NONE.

Poo on you M5.
