Supposed to wake up late but went to school early to practice for lab test. Hung around the Sakuran Club room for a while.

Winamp playin: Joe Satriani - Crystal Planet album

Seems like everyone is 'siao one' about filming the NYP version of Battle Royale. Even Eiji skipped 2 of her classes coz she was engrossed in reading the comics.. and this is a girl who would try to shoo me off to my classes when I would skip them. What is the world coming to? Don't answer that. Got dragged into this thingy as well.. I'm supposed to be one of the soldiers. Whoopie. I get to wear the No. 4 early. Maybe i can borrow the movie from Pinku. More cockster.. err.. cockness coming your way

Was supposed to go for my morning class at 9.30 to take an E-quiz. Went in at 9.42, took my quiz for 10 mins and got 9/10. Not bad eh? §^_^

Winamp playin: Sonata Arctica - Silent Jealousy (X Japan cover)

Ok, its confirmed. The big, bad and 'botak'(bald) guitarist, Joe Satriani, is comin to town. More info can be found here. Decided to go for the concert instead of his guitar clinic coz both are so damn expensive. Ed has been complaining that the pricing for the guitar clinic is quite a ripoff. I quote..

Late for lecture again.. since when was I ever early for Tuesday morning's lecture? Managed to settle most of the questions in the survey form for the Communication Skills project thingy.. need to edit a bit more and it should be done.

Winamp playin: Guilty Gear X - Vocal Side 2 - Slash

More or less settled If ~hitorigoto~.. left with Bravery and 1/3 no Junjouna Kanjou. Funny thing was.. after singing If, I couldn't sing 1/3 no Junjouna Kanjou properly. Must be coz I hadn't eaten dinner yet. Gotta start practicing all the songs at one go already.. Ed has been stressing to take this coming jam as it were the real thing. No rest for me, I guess. Hopefully everything goes well.. or else Ed is gonna screw us all up. God knows how i'm going to handle projects, common test, jamming, the gig and presentation without losing my marbles (i'm referring to both).

Monday, February 24, 2003 08:53 a.m.
Haven't blogged for almost a week coz of projects again. They seem to be piling up one after another. Hopefully there won't be so much after common test.

Seems like i've caught a flu. Oh yay §-____- Had to skip morning lecture to catch up on some sleep. Will go to school later for normal lessons.

Monday, February 17, 2003 11:02 p.m.
Yare Yare Daze.. Been busy with project so had no time to blog for a while. Lot of fuckin things on my mind.. and the ever piling school assignments are not helping either.

Winamp playin: Demons & Wizards album

At least this music is helping me keep my head screwed on for the moment. Iced Earth guitarist + Blind Guardian's vocal = Demons & Wizards

For the performance at Faith's birthday.. it seems that Desmond can't make it so Ed has put me in the vocals position.. not that I mind much but I hope the extra stress doesn't get to me. Losing my file with almost all of my lab sheets/worksheets/tutorials today did not help the situation either.. thankfully nothing of great importance was in the file.. Guess everyone runs out of luck at one point or another §-_____-

Band issues are another major concern of mine.. Its been months since I have seen them together, much less jammed with them. Hope we can sit down and discuss matters soon.. I would hate to see the band fall apart even before we have played our 1st live. Ehime no Mikan.. signing off for now..

Saturday, February 15, 2003 01:40 a.m.
Finished class at 4, met Akane Jojo and was talking to her when I got a msg from Eiji telling us to come up to one of the classrooms. Went in and saw that the sakuran club members were trying to finish leftovers. A group of them were playing 'Open Numbers' just to see who gets to eat cupcakes. I helped myself to the curry puffs and manages to finish them (with the help of Akane JoJo). Went with Eiji, Kat and uh.. this guy that resembles Shern.. (forgot his name, d'oh §-__-;;) to bugis arcade to pa some games. Spent/wasted about there playing Guilty Gear XX.

Later on we met Ivan and Akane^Kurenai at Grafitti Cafe... I wouldnt have wanted to meet them if not for the fact that I had to pass her my a book to scan some pics for my project and that no one else that i know has a scanner. Paid Eiji back the 10 bucks I owe her... wonder if I still owe anyone else money. On my way home I managed to convince Ivan to try out some of Sonata Arctica songs.. hehehe :P

Not a bad Valentine's Day, actually. I've had worse §-___-

Thursday, February 13, 2003 10:57 p.m.
Came back from wenjie's house yesterday. Wenjie's friend took back his Baldur's Gate and passed him another version of the game (which, when we found out later, could not work) Ended up hogging the whole PS2 and playing Shinobi while the 2 of them played guitar and talked cock §^^; Came back home and snooozed. Went to school late, as usual. Nothing much happened.. paid Eiji back Ed's money.. still owe her 10 though...
§--;;

Winamp playin: Siam Shade - Legend of Sanctuary

Playin the whole V7 concert on my winamp now~ Siok ah :P *off to do his blooming project*

Tuesday, February 11, 2003 12:02 a.m.
Boring day again.. went to class late for 3 mins and was marked absent.. FUCK. Couldnt keep awake for most part of the morning lecture. Wanted go to sleep when it was break time.. mind started to wander and think about getting my PS2 and playing Guilty Gear X, Metal Gear Solid 2, etc. Didn't feel sleepy anymore.. and at that moment the teacher decided to give us break.. D'oh §-____-

Winamp playin: Bon Jovi - Thank You For Lovin Me

Man.. V-day is just around the corner. This is depressing and the song is not helping §T__T

Winamp playin: Goo Goo Dolls - Iris

Hehe, this song reminds me of Ah long's crazy (but overall nice) 'mom'. Ironically, the lyrics kinda sound like her.. or maybe its just me. Forgot to give film for developing.. Wenjie is gonna kill me if I don't get his Avril pictures developed soon.

Sunday, February 9, 2003 10:58 p.m.
Hor hor hor, managed to do the main page for my webpage based project. Now still got the rest to complete... and that's like 16 pages §-____-

Winamp playin: Iron Maiden - The Trooper

Ah~ got back this song.. now have to find lyrics and start practicing. Hmm.. Ed called me today. Our conversation sounded something like the following (There's something wrong with the speaker in my phone so sometimes I can't hear what he's saying properly)

Note: The following conversation contains explicit Singlish. You have been warned.

*Ring*
Mikan: Alo? Ed ah?
Ed: Ya. Eh i got some news. I tell you, your sperm sure spray out.
Mikan: What thing?
Ed: Satch might be coming to Singapore.
Mikan: Sex? Sex Machineguns?
Ed: No no.. Satch.
Mikan: SADS?
Ed: No. Satch
Mikan: Satch? Joe Satriani?
Ed: Ya
Mikan: Oh... CB!
Ed: Wahaha
Mikan: Wah.. power sial..
Ed: Swee Lee might be bringing him under Ibanez.
Mikan: Oh. He uses Ibanez guitar?
Ed: Err...Ya?
Mikan: Haha, ok. Didn't know that.... CB! He's coming!
Ed: Not confirm la but he _might_ be coming.
Mikan: Wahaha.. I go shave skinhead and cosplay him.
Ed: Sial. Liddat I must find things to give him sign.
Mikan: Me too.
Ed: You shave botak and ask him to sign your head la.
Mikan: ..... Sial §-____- We need to bring more film.. remember what happened when Paul Gilbert came?
Ed: Ya man.
Mikan: Sian.. Arrgh.. the $$ for my PS2..
Ed: Aiya, once in a lifetime chance ah.
Mikan: Ok ok. I onz.
Ed: Steady. Don't tell anyone first, wait for them to confirm then we slowly tell people. Wahaha.
Mikan: Haha, ok.
Ed: Ok ok I got to go already, bye bye.
Mikan: Bye.

Winamp playin: Sonata Arctica - San Sebastian

Helping Faith organize her party.. Hope I won't be bogged down by assignments in that week..

Sunday, February 9, 2003 02:34 a.m.
Quite boring today. Watched Ah wei, Ah long, Wenjie and Kiru play Warcraft III today. Kiru managed to beat Wenjie and fend off attacks from him and Ah Long. Ah Wei got beat early in the game by Ah Long :p Will just post a log from a few days ago in #shoxx that kinda irked me...

Duno wat he's tryin to prove..

Friday, February 7, 2003 11:20 p.m.
Still downloading more ELP and SRV. Eiji went to the Japanese Association(i think) for Chingay practice, so was quite bored in school. Had to stay back and do some assignments *bleargh* §x___x

Winamp playin: Sonata Arctica - Wolf and Raven (Live in Tokyo)

Been playing this song on repeat mode for a while §^^ Starting to get hyped up when I hear their music.. They seem like a very promising band. Hope they continue to make good music.

Friday, February 7, 2003 01:24 a.m.
Ran Scandisk overnite.. which would explain why i didn't blog on Wednesday. Been on a downloading spree recently. Main stuff being Joe Satriani, ELP(Emerson, Lake and Palmer) and Stevie Ray Vaughan. Will add profile and update links soon (i hope).. before my school assignments make mince meat out of my time §T____T

Wednesday, February 5, 2003 12:13 a.m.
Nothing very eventful happened today. Went to school late as usual only to find that no one was in the lecture theater or in the ELP. It was at the next class the i found out they went to ELQ
§-___- Lecture ended early so I went home.. and was too lazy to go back to school again.

Winamp playin Bon Jovi - You Give Love A Bad Name

Shot through the heart~ and you're to blame~ Darlin' you give love a bad name~

Downloaded 1st episode of Ninku today.. ~yay~ \§^_^/ Now to find someone who has the rest of them.. §--; Desmond seems intent on jamming Blurry by Puddle of Mudd. Wonder if there are any keyboard parts in it.

<@OverRated> i want blurry!
<@lordMikan> ....
<@lordMikan> blurry eyes?
OverRated (DyziFer@bb220-255-76-118.singnet.com.sg) is now known as Deztinati
<@Deztinati> nope
<@Deztinati> puddle of mudd
<@lordMikan> oh ok
<@lordMikan> for a moment i thought u wanted to kill me
<@lordMikan> the keyboards for that is song hard
<@Daita> can u take my underwear~
<@Daita> can u take my underwear~
<@Daita> well i shoved it in ur face
<@Daita> u fucking pussy face~
<@Deztinati> wahhh
<@Deztinati> u cb
<@Deztinati> lolz
<@Daita> he sing the word like underwear leh
<@Deztinati> really i wanna jam this
<@Deztinati> =D

Ok, I think that's about enough.. §-__-;;;

I think I've been away from jamming too long. Speaking of keyboards, still trying to play the intro for White Love Story without any breaks in between.. pretty much settled the rest.

Monday, February 3, 2003 11:09 p.m.
Was preparing to go out today when Shannon, who I haven't seen in like 4 months or so, came to my house and into my room. His first reaction was to laugh his ass off for the next 5 minutes because my hair was in its 'afro mess'. After which he started to poke it and ask stupid questions §-___-

Winamp playin: Hideki[Mirai] - Koe Ni..(I Can't Voice..)

Left home at around 4+ to meet the others at 5. Reached Graffiti Cafe(which was closed) and was kinda surprised to see Zhihui dressed quite formally. I think its the first time I've seen him wear a shirt out to meet us. Also noticed Luna and Ed wearing sweaters with hoods. Luckily I didn't wear mine out today.. or we three would have been branded rappers. Luna and Iris decided to go to Takashimaya to eat so the rest of us went to Cuppage to eat some Japanese food. I ordered some Ramen and Gyoza. The ramen was good, like a not so hot version of laksa.. just the way i like it :P But kinda expensive though.. cost 13 bucks. Guess it wouldn't hurt to eat like this once in a while. Back to school tomorrow..

Sunday, February 2, 2003 11:36 p.m.
Hor hor hor.. I'm back from 2 days of (so called) partying :D

Winamp playin: Siam Shade - Risk, Doll, Dreams

Went to torn at Wenjie's house yesterday. He gave the WWE game back to his friend. Kinda relieved for 2 reasons.

1. Edmund can't kick my butt when he plays against me.
2. I don't have to worry about laughing myself to death (or stomach cramps) and overusing my inhaler when he does nonsensical impressions of the wrestlers (e.g. speaking, taunting in hokkien while beating up the opponent). A probable 3rd reason would be that we didn't need to call Phua Chu Kang in case his house collapsed from the ensuing chaos §^^;;;

Wenjie's mom gave me and Ed some hongbaos but abit wasted coz i spent it on dinner at McDonald's §-__-;; Kinda disappointed that Wenjie's PS2 can't play Code 2 dvds.. was really looking forward to watching Siam Shade V6. Ended up taking turns to play Baldur's Gate from 10+ pm to 5 am. Then Wenjie and Ed went to sleep.. so I played Shinobi for a while but Wenjie woke up and told me to give the set some rest. Since the 2 of them were sleeping on the bed, i grabbed a pillow and went to sleep.... on the floor. I remember waking up with a sore ass the next morning
§-___-

Left Wenjie's house and went to auntie's place. Didn't get any hongbaos but had one hell of a dinner, so i guess that makes up for it :Þ

Saturday, February 1, 2003 10:09 a.m.
Woke up this morning and started queuing songs in Dalnet. Went back to bed and got up 10 mins later realizing that i can't get any sleep.

Winamp playin: Sonata Arctica - Still Loving You, I Want Out, Shy, Replica, My Land

I recall Edmund mentioning that these guys are like.. what.. around 21 or 22? Just a few years older than us. And they write some kickass songs. Which makes me wonder if they picked up their instruments at 14 or younger. Some people say that its 'easier' or 'better' to learn instruments at a young age. I kinda disagree.. it doesn't matter if you start learning an instrument at 9 or 19 its the same just that the younger you learn it at, the more time you have to improve at your techniques, improvisation, etc. Just some random stuff popping in my mind at the moment. Gotta lurve their keyboard solos §^___^

Saturday, February 1, 2003 12:00 a.m.
Yare Yare Daze. Just thought i'd start my entries in the New Year. Don't ask my why, just a thought. Anyway..

~^* \m/ Happy Fuckin New Year \m/ *^~

Winamp playin: Iced Earth - Birth of the Wicked

Hehe.. metal version of your typical new year greeting §^^ Listening to Iced Earth is a nice way to start the New Year. Formatting my D drive is NOT §-_____- My com must have swallowed a virus coz after it hanged a few days ago, i cant access my D drive anymore. Damn.. have to download all my stuff again. New Year's Eve was sooo boring... cooped up at home coz of the frickin rain which was pouring the whole day plus the fact that i now have limited mp3s and video clips to entertain myself with. Makes me wonder if Daita was at home playing Rain for fun for it to pour this bad.

Winamp playin: Seomoon Tak feat. Daita - Rebirth

Ah.. a song from the man himself. Another good song to start the New Year. VoCe came over today to give some lessons. Learnt some finger exercises.. at least now i got something to do in school or when i'm not playing the keyboard. She said i've improved but somehow i don't think so.. §^^;;; Hor hor.. tried to play a bit of Hallowed be Thy Name but keep getting stuck at some parts. Managed to remember the notes for White Love Story.. now all i need to do is to practice and be able to play it cleanly.
