Le'Pigu

I should stop playing The Thrill's Don't Steal Our Sun over and over again. It's a cool song, very raw...dammit, I saw their music vid and I'm beginning to hate guitar, they just look around and their fingers change effortlessly. How's guitar learning? Stagnant. I think I lost interest halfway.. when I realise they were also talking about memorising minor and major chords... the whole chromatic scale thing...yeap. Turn off. Yada yada... like what Tong said - singing is so much easier, lol.

Random Shit (Don't Read):
Life's pretty much a routine now.. swimming, lazing etc. I know loads of people can't break out of routines, it gives them a sense of insecurity.. there was a Roald Dahl story on it. If there's such a thing called an emotionalist (obviously someone who works alongside a psychiatrist...but who charges much less/free), I'd be it. I saw this National geographic thing bout technological advancement. And there's like machines who can create original artworks - FREELY - and others that can beat the world chess champ at a game.. it's scary stuff. The more we know, the more we head towards our extinction. I'm thinking too much.

Finally took pictures of my great grandma.... now can finally move on with art >:) hahaha, waste of my time, but hey.. I can't always draw and paint pretty stuff.. or what the world calls 'pretty'. She's probably been through alot, and that makes her beautiful as a person. Ok, I shall stop advertising relations. LOL, but she's not senile, and she's a devout catholic.. which makes her a good example to follow. At least to me. And she's like 100 on the lunar calendar..it DOES proves you live longer when you're devoted.

Iven introed watching the show every sunday 9pm on channel 8... and wah lau.. Ru Hua is damn damn damn ugly. She's like, a panda crossed with chem yeo la.. and the things she do, wah liew.. can die laughing. Btw Iven, Michelle Branch is 100 times prettier than Ru Hua :) Speaking of TV, it's kinda evil. I'm beginning to want like half of the stuff advertised on it (EXCEPT stuff like Ru Hua, Sofy, SK II and whatever).. I mean like 3G phones. Wait a sec, 3100 still rules :]

Back to the road of emo/acoustic/vocal music, cause I think I need a break from rock/punk etc... some great tracks
