My Performance in NTLP 14 is on YouTube =)

Help me Spread it out yea... I do like more comments and critics... Feel free to say anything about it

Every time I watch it back, I feel good. I feel high~

It's like making love to myself~ hmm... Like I know how it feels like...Err

I better just shut up.

Action speaks louder than words...

Watch my video ba =)

Lately

Blackman asked me to try a demo~ I always adore his songs. Now that he required my voice, obviously I jumped in. It was a upbeat techno/dance/rock song and I just love it. I can see the potential of the song being sang by Jolin Tsai or even Elva Hsiao~ Blackman song is well known for its wide range and power vocal is a must. 

So, I'm quite surprised by his creation and his choice for vocal this time. Talented lor ini abang~

The only draw back was this song is in Mandarin and it was an upbeat song, so lyrically it would be tough for me. I learned some recording techniques thanks to Koko Miao teaching and the mic too. Now I can even compose my own song =). I tried sang it few times. The verse was a bit too low to reach. The rest I think I did okay if you ignore the ugly pronunciation and the unbrushed vocal skill of mine. I heard that you demand for perfection, well; Who's in NT that's not? I scared I fail you~ I'm truly lack of confidence~ In fact I wonder if I still own it. As long as you think I could proceed, I'm most willing to help. =) Thanks for the trust you put on me. It's a great song!

So, I went to KL today to visit my grandma's elder sister who was earlier knocked down by a motorcycle nearby Pudu. I was very resistant to go but I gave in anyway. Do I ever fail them really? She was recovering thank goodness. She was currently at the private old folks care center. This was my first visit to such place. It was a little different from what I had in mind. 

While I was accompanying my grandma to the toilet, I saw a sight that I can't shake off my head. The toilet was located in another room which stored oldies with health complications. The room was cold and the light was off. I heard hard breathing somewhat machine like and I looked over to where the sound came from. I had the shock of my life. 

There was this uncle, so thin, so fragile so inhuman breathing through machined oriented tube. He was awake and he was facing me. I was really afraid! It was like a scene in some horror film where I should be screaming already and blasted out from the whole eerie place. Then, I braved up and looked around the room. They all looked alike and all of them laid lifelessly. My heart just sank. I almost feel like crying. I wasn't sure if the uncle wanted my attention or if he was bothered with my arrival. 

Was at PJ old town

I just couldn't force myself to face that sight anymore. I stared at blank wall. I wanted to get out from that place. I couldn't stand heart wrenching things. Suddenly I feel blessed. I just wish others out there feel the same. Health unlike Wealth is uncertain. You have no right to demand the certainty of good health and long life. You ought to live right when you are the lucky ones chosen to see the world better than the rest. Don't go around telling others that you wanna die and such nonsense. If you could just tell that suffering uncle that you wanna end your life for whatever difficulty you face... I supposed he would want to tell you that he wants to live longer and walk out from the breathing machine.

If only he could.

I just wish I am one of the lucky ones because I don't just live for myself. I have a lot dreams to achieve and they could be inspiring at least to a few that I could reach out to~

Oh... Out of sudden, I was inspired to write... already finished up two articles in two days. Experienced based, personal and worth reading like usual XD. 

*Hearts* 

Oh yea, I have been getting complains that my blog entries are too long and that would be boring to be read. More pictures might be the solution. I will revise on that but I just want to say that if you could appreciate what I have written and be bothered to read, you wouldn't be complaining. Probably my blog isn't your type of reading materials.

Next channel maybe =)

Days After Internship

Practice makes perfect

OOoo, I pierced my ears. Farking pain!!! Fuck those who told me that it wouldn't be pain. Damn... for beauty sake...  I feel so pondan! XD

A senior of mine asked me to try on a demo. Very nice dance-techno genre. Mandarin le. I'm trying my best to sing it... I hope I dun fail him~

Squirrel and Termite came find me in Seremban =) Gosh, I miss them so so much. Saw them for the 1st time after 3 months of separation.

Pillow talk =3and I talked so much~ hmm

Dear gals... it wasn't easy to build our 3 years friendships together. Whatever happens to 3 of you in Johor, I wish time could ease it up. Forgive and forget is the trick here since all of you have voiced out those dissatisfaction. Me being the 3rd party here is not suppose to say anything. I just wish you all could take it as a lesson to better understand best friends' needs and thinking. No one is on the wrong side.

Awh

Meet this baby while strolling with besties. So darling~ I wish I could bring it home...

Na, Im stingy towards myself

I'm a trained biologist. Unnecessarily buying is equivalence to wastage

Jcdagreat is ready to leave her 1st giant footprint there

 Hey Northern fwens ~ wait for my arrival ya

I had a sui morning today... To sum it up

I rushed in and outta UKM just to hand in the stupid log book due to my carelessness and some irresponsible, lousy supervisor I had. 

I didn't really miss that place without my friends around. 

><

Then the SUIness continued when I wanna bring my parents to try on Kajang food. One was moved. Another one was closed. Fuck giler!!! End up eating something somewhere nearby after rounding the town for almost an hour. 

Dammit!

Emo Emo

That was the best night I had after NTLP 14!!! I have difficulty in adjusting myself back to norm.

I can't believe I still miss you. You are the 2nd guy who made me feel this way. I really wanted to hug you but I drew back. I scared it might be more than just a thank you hug. Self restrained. A seal to my weak heart. I'm happie just the way we are. I think I had my attention shifted. You gotta wish me luck while you find yourself a deserving beauty alright :)

I will seriously learn how to cure my phobia. The next time you call, you will hear no one but Joanne =)))

I realized that I like guys having strong arms.

The day I declared

JcdaGreat Day

The day started off at 5.30am. With less than 3 hours of sleep, I got up to fetch Siewin at Terminal 1. All the way from Kedah, this lass- my fav gal in NT, my tcher, my bestfriend, my soul mate arrived as she promised.

We were all smiles. Oh, my house autogate gave baby Chasez a metal kiss mark. Dammit. We kept on chatting until our eyes gave up on us. The whole thing reminded me how our friendship blossomed during the Archustic function. We spent the entire day at home until 5pm.

The master of the plan aside, she was also my fashion consultant that day. From the invitation list to the restaurant and to studio booking, she did it all. How can I don't love her more?

We waited for 3 friends at UKM KTM station. It was pouring hard out there and we wore so little... LOL. Sleeveless XD. We waited almost one hour but random bumping to a few UKMrians delighted me. I met Seen Loh and Nathan mi amigo. Those familiar faces made me miss my friends even more. At last at 7pm, we managed to get those reaching by KTM and headed to Yen Ming's house. 

Both YeSwan and Edmund were the earliest. Funny how one smart enough to wait at the VIP room while another one waited outside the restaurant feeling the cold breeze with his fine gelled hair. 

Guess who is who??? 

^^V

Nice environment but quite pricey. Since I'm not paying and I won't be allowed to pay, I turn a blind eye on the Salmon steak which was Rm30 ++. It was quite surreal to see all 13 of them chatting endlessly, laughing at any funny stuff anyone throws in. I was lost for word to describe that feeling. I was just very happy. 

Whenever I am with them, I am normally the one who speak less. Well, you don't get that always for a typical Leo gal. I guess I prefer to be the one listening and absorbing lately. I don't know when this actually begins but I found it comfortable.I knew some of them realized that and try to get me into the conversation. Na, don't worry, I'm truly enjoying my time =)

 My miao family

After dinner, all of us headed to Antrax studio. 11 of us continued to jam until 1.30am. Random messy jamming ever. LOL. Jamming without proper management is nothing but pure FUN. The first song of the night was the birthday song in English, Mandarin, Cantonese and German in the most messy way. No sweeter tune can enter my ears that night. Dear sang beautifully. She kept her voice grounded for a long time and through her voice, you know how happy she was to let it soar. 

The next spot, the must visit spot, my fav of all mamak >>> Al-fariz.

Had my fav maggie goreng and susu lembu... satisfy giler although I was having tummy discomfort. (Tracie dun roll eyes la~~~)

We departed for real around 0245am and that was when this heavy feeling came again.

I wish I can grab all of them, tied em in a chain and packed em in a box then send to my home. 

Ha...I wish. 

I stayed overnight at Yen Ming house and left this morning at 9am. I bid all of them goodbye for the last time temporarily before I meet them again during convo. 

 <3<3<3

All my favourite faces were there, I wish there were more. You know, New tuners are simply too irresistible, you just couldn't have enough. XP.

Like me <3

Yeap, Just like me..... *^^*

You guys made me worth a million!!! 

I lost count of the wishes I received in FB. I thought of counting the number of wishes but for what reason?

I remember them by heart and not through calculation.

To make Joanne happy, promise her to take good care of yourself

 To make her happier, update her with your latest information

Jcdagreat is ready to walk out of the cat suit and come back to reality.

It's my bufday

Yo yo yo...It's my bufday, We're going party like, It's ur bufday

So sang 50 Cent

LOL

Every year, I try to be low-key, try not to expect so much about anything or anyone and how my bufday is gonna be. I have been celebrating my bday in a grand way ever since Upper six. It started off with a bang with all my U65rians, then 1st year with family members, 2nd year with course mates, 3rd year now, today with Newtuners. I have no idea what exactly they will do but I was already told that there will be dinner, and jamming at Bangi!!! I seriously can't wait. 

Tomorow isn't just my bday. It's our NewTune gathering after 3 months of departure specially organized on my bday =) 

Bday is the day I receive love, secured convincing love from all dearies. I'm not sure if I deserved it, I'm not even sure if I have been good enough to call myself somebody's best friend but I do know I love being loved.

The only one missing is still nowhere to be found. I'm no longer yearning to know who he is, and when he will appear but the years wears off without him ever perfectly. I'm still very much sane and pretty. =)

Do I need him? Yes perhaps. Do I need him now....ermm, I'm still having my eyes wandering, my heart seeking for the right one.
