Insomnia and Sickness
Posted by Emory on March 29, 2009Just as I was scrolling my list of MSN contacts, I came across a person’s blog which I never knew how he ended in my Contact list. But I was curious, thinking it may filled with self-camwhore-portraits. Instead I found a blog by a fan of Korean music. In the blog, a Youtube clip caught my attention and I without any hesitation, clicked on that music video.
Somehow I liked the song.
?? Wheesung - Insomnia
Well, the song is nice… but it was not an original song by him. The original version is by a black guy who likes to ask “What’s Your Flava” to “Fill Me In” in “7 Days” so by the time you see him “Walking Away”, you will know his “Rise and Fall”.
Back with a different look from the last time I saw him…
Craig David - Insomnia
Craig really changed a lot. And this song, produced by Timbaland Productions is good music! I now start to think that all Timbaland Productions are real real good quality dance music!
Anyways, recently I’ve been sick. I had a visit from the dance fever-land. It’s good to be well again. I had to postpone my appointment with my editor to last Wednesday to hand up my work. and I had to pick up the slack I made… FINISHING 4 PAGES WITHIN 24 HOURS!!! That was the record of the year and I didn’t have enough sleep to begin with!!
Sometimes these rushing experiences really give some thought for myself. How I can organize my time to finish 4 pages in one day! At least now I know I can do 1 page within 6 hours of my time. I think I’ll start do 2 pages per day. But with having the weekends off for brainstorming and drafting. I also have conversation with my editor lately on my future as a freelance mangaka there in the company. The editor wants me to go another level this year (So do I). I hope the last few comics I complete will end my Fairy Tales chapter and start with a new story with ultra strong fresh mint characters! I won’t spill anything just yet. But I hope by May, I can start this Project ‘O’ which is going to be a mainstream humor ultra super duper kawaii killarz comic!!!!111oneoneone…
Last last Saturday was a day that I could not forget. What seems to be a good day but it turned out to be a total disaster. Here are some before after pictures to prove my point.
What is now…
What was that day…
Another angle on it to see how this is “why so serious”.
See if you can spot where the drain leads to. That black little hole at the end is where it goes…
Either our place is easily flooded or tsunami just hit us here in KL…
=____=… Good thing I live uphill…
Great news! (Or on the contrary) There is another new Harry Potter book! It’s an official book and I just spotted it in Ikano’s Popular Bookstore!
See the thing on my hand! It’s not entitled “Harry Potter and the Balance of Earth” from Futurama… Neither it is written by J. K. Rowling.
Somehow, people just want to have a piece of the delicious cake which the Harry Potter brand name is worth. I wonder if they are even ALLOWED to use the name Harry Potter in front of their book and design it to look like that. Bloodsuckers…
Just yesterday, me and a group of my friends went to The Gardens at Mid Valley. I just don’t understand why they wanted to go eat at a place that you will absolutely know it is damn pricey, high classed, and yet somehow having that gut feeling that its not really worth it?
More like flying money…
This Thai food restaurant is ABSOLUTELY ridiculous! Somehow they know how to make dishes but not single serving personal dish! And the simple drinks are overpriced and overrated…
Basically Soda without the sweet taste and Pandan cooked in sugar water
I should have ordered Soda… RM5 for the Tonic and RM9 for the Pandan drink…
Fried Rice with Prawn
This dish made my friend unhappy with the service. My friend could not eat meat on that day, but seafood is fine. He asked the waiter to NOT serve chicken to him but add more prawns or something like that. But ended up disappointed and angry. Dish price: RM15.50
Pineapple Fried Rice
This one looked nice. Some of my friends are satisfied with this dish. RM16.50
Steamed Rice with Hot Basil Chicken and Sunny Side
Somehow this being priced at RM15.50 is more or so of another ripoff… The taste is not so great. I had to put the chili powder on it so that it is hot enough to make me sweat as if I’m in a sauna. It felt like I can cook that dish and sell it at RM5.
Some things on the menu when spoken sounded funny in a way. For example, Stewed Beef Noodle, which my friend said tasted like beef cooked in black soy sweet sauce and then placed on top of the noodle, may sound funny when read quickly. Stupid Noodle.
And another noodle which we don’t really understand…
Phad Thai Noodle…
Part Time Noodle? WTF?!
Unless you are having a strong stomach on coconut milk and hot spicy food, not to mention their dish like tomyam soup (very nice!) This restaurant is nice to go. But avoid all weird name single dishes.
I don’t like coconut milk… I had to go to the toilet 2 times the next morning.
Beat Freaks Freeze!
Posted by Emory on March 12, 2009Lately I’ve been watching America’s Best Dance Crew season 3 online. I don’t have TV here but the internet helps much in a cool show like this available online for us to watch!
Beat Freaks - Week 5 - Magic Week
This is the best girl group in the whole show. The way they dance really makes me want to move! I saw that in Gizmodo and I searched online to find a way to watch this show online. Then I came across the main site in MTV. Which features full episodes streaming in 3 different qualities! (If your internet speed is fast enough then go for quality.) Here’s the video episodes page. ABDC Episodes
The whole ABDC Season 3 was being conquered by another team, The Quest Crew. Who battled out with Beat Freaks to the final 2. It’s sad to watch Beat Freaks ended up in second place. They dance very smooth but Quest Crew uses their full creativity to put on a show. But I still like Beat Freaks!
Oh, I liked the music when Beat Freaks are performing their Magic Act Week, which is called Freeze by T-Pain featuring Stupid bad ass Rhianna hitting bastard Chris Brown.
MTV… Enjoyz!!!
Coldplay
Posted by Emory on August 3, 2008One of the bands that inspire me to think when listening to their songs. At August 1st, their new video, Viva La Vida premiered at their website… and the videos are getting into Youtube as we speak. But before going to the premiere, I made a little compilation of their videos in this post. The ones I think rock out my mind, the ones that make me think, the ones that make me dream of one of my big projects.
The first song from their album that I enjoyed… This video showed me how this world through this song. I really enjoyed it. But they were starting their careers in the music industry. There isn’t much impact but it was a great beginning.
Clocks is another song that I think it is amazing. The repeating keyboard tune and the video really made a good image how Coldplay would turn out in the future. I began to like their music since my big brother always play the cassette on the radio. At my grandma’s house, there’s MTV there so their music video was alluring to me.
Speed of sound is the one that gave me the most impact. With the colourful background and the slow theme with high impact melody, it made me attracted to it. The song alone made me think of one big project that I will be making. A dream, a vision, a past, present and the future… I thank Coldplay for making this song the best one I’ve ever heard.
(When the clearer version is out… I’ll change it)
This is their new song… Although there is not much impact this time but it’s still one of the best from their album. Since the song was inspired by Nintendo’s Zelda theme song, many people are confused with this song either it was inspired by one song, or many other… Since I know one band made the song same tune as this song, both the band said the source of inspiration comes from Zelda… Anyway… it’s still a good job to Coldplay.
… Nuff said… It’s like their Violet Hill video… captured using a low res cam…
I just wish their music video looks like this one…
Hail to the king…
Mr. Children - GIFT
Posted by Emory on July 24, 2008Watch this video.
The gift is so to be said at the beginning of this video. And in the end… What a wonderful video! What a wonderful song!! I LOVE MR. CHILDREN!!! WWWAAAAAAHHHHH!!!!
My cousin Ethan is a few months older now. I can’t help it but to see the blurry, white imbalanced and out o focus with messy hair pictures their parents take most of the time. Kawaii desu~! When I was watching the GIFT video, I kept thinking of how would Ethan grow up to. Hmm… Time or me to write something for him!
Dear Ethan,
What this world awaits you.
The gifts that are made,
Your face always blushing red
The beautiful sunset horizon glowing orange
And the soft sands at the beaches are yellow
The grass and trees are always green.
The clouds white and the skies blue.
The mysterious space shining indigo.
With flowers like lavender coloured in violet,
They are prepared for you to explore.
Science or education, they are all wonders.
It is special when we see them.
Like the spectrum of light.
Colourful like this world.
I hope that everyday,
You will always see rainbows that makes you smile.
