its quite rare for this witch to actually buy cds but ... i got two cds today! both from different places. it's time i learnt how to appreciate.  





aspidistrafly- i hold a wish for you

i love how the album's produced; in an accordion photo album featuring photography by April Lee one of the two members of the band. this very album that i own now happened to be in the cd player for preview when i was back at asylum studios and i couldn't help but put them on to get a short glimpse of the sound.  i fell in love immediately as it transported me into the scenes of great fields and blue skies, just like that on the album cover.  



electric president - sleep well


i came across this band whilst listening to last.fm online and got some songs like insomnia and label my mind, blown downloaded.  whilst having the cd previewed, the first track made my ears perk up, but i know there're deeper meanings to the songs so i need to listen to it again to do the producers justice.  i cant listen to music as i did in the past.  i've been too shallow.  


think we kinda annoyed the shop person after previewing so many cds. whoops. sorry for the trouble , lady. 0; )

going back to get another one. sorry i forget abt you red one.

i'm such an idiot. today's the only day in my life that i arrive late for school. well yes its the hols already but i forgot entirely that i had to clear the workshop by 5pm. 5 PM!!@!@#!# !@# and i arrived at like, close to 6!! what an idiot. i guess i was so used to hanging out in school till after hours that i just overlooked everything. argh. what an idiot. sorry mada for all the inconvenience caused. argh.

after packing everything outside the workshop, returned stuff back to studioland and went to look for floaty at the staff pod. had a good talk with Sanjay, then left for tau hway with floaty. i appreciate everything floaty's advices and how she's really trying to help, but stubborn as i am, i'm unable to accept it all yet. i might in time to come, when something happens, but for now its not soon.

my works are juvenile. need detachment. need to be objective. need to learn from those who are doing well. need to change working habits. need to work smart. need to strategise. need to REMEMBER goals and reason for being.

my current inactivity here's due to the upcoming assessments. but will be going for this to support Patrick . i do updates mostly on facebook now. post more pics in the albums there more than i should, and i refuse to admit that i'm addicted. well, addicted's not the word i find, more like i wanna be organized and therefore, anal.

been crazily in love with Copeland, The Album Leaf, Death Cab for Cutie, Rachael Yamagata, This will Destroy You, The observatory.

Also in love with Kid-O(very addictive)

And lastly, in love with school. But the current displacement messes with my mind.

struggling to survive

i realised after critic today that what mada said was right. i need to try to distance myself from my works so that my personal emotions will not affect my being.

today during my first critic session, i broke down again. i failed to go past the 5th or 6th sentence of my print out "script". i tried to pull myself together but i struggled with the continuation as my speech collapsed again when all the ill memories came rushig into my mind. the words that trigger the tears brought me back to the past when tbe event took place and i relived it on the spot.

my focus was off and amidst the abrupt pauses, i tried very hard to continue with the presentation, which got really chaotic.

anyways, i thought negatively of my critic at first because i felt i didnt get the feedback i needed. the students didnt comment much. i was told that my works are too literal and it would be good to try using metaphors instead. i got good response on tomatogirl being ambiguous and leading the viewer to the character. to be continued .. .
