it's been a while since i've blogged. i just haven't really got into the swing of blogging anymore cause well, ive had the summer to keep me entertained. but now, seeing as i'm about 3 days away from what could be the best or worst two years of my life - shaving my head, being forced to obey ridiculus commands with the response 'sir yes sir' and well...moving to singapore for that matter - i think i'm going to have to start again.

i'm finally leaving home, which is a little of a shocker, seeing as i've been here for almost my entire life. i'm not going to be able to just head down the road to the nearest mamak and, chill. i'm not going to be able to head to 7-e if im dying for a toblerone and i can't have my daily fix of square. things are going to be so different huh.

SUMMER

this summer was probably the best summer i've ever had. partially cause i've finished with school (although the thought of me not being able to sit down and study for something scares the living shit outta me cause there is a high chance that i might not even be able to speak 'civilian' english after these two years) and didn't really have a care in the world. i managed to cram in so many things this summer...excitement, vim, high's and low's, paranoia, sleepless nights, sleepFUL days, secrets, 'glee', music, hugs, friendships, mess, achievement, chills, thrills, stresses and days where i would just want to live, 30 rock, shopping, singing, comic, arrested development, movies in general, vacations, family, barbeques, shoes, parties, sheesha, ps3, viruses, illnesses and many more - but one that stands out in all of this mambo jambo is - regret.

i had probably the best time of my life, i just hope it doesn't come back to haunt me.

MUSIC

i've moved on so far with this whole music thing this summer. from photoshoots, to magazines, to studio-work...its been to surreal. and to think this all happened within the span of like 2 months. i don't really know how, but i'm happy.

most welcome to head to my myspace if your up for a listen. i recorded a couple of songs in the studio the other day so make sure u have a gander!

HELLO!

LIFE

"One day you're high. The next day you're low. You might have a funky, expressive, or awful haircut today, but soon it will grow into something else, something new and random. Maybe you grew up liking pop music and boy bands, but now you like a specific mash up of Electronic & Classical. You might decide you don't want to smoke cigarettes anymore; that it's just not who you are. Perhaps you were madly in love last week, but woke up today feeling comfort in solitude, without a desire to be held.

Everything is fine. Not finAL."

i was reading this mraz post the other day and it really got me thinking about what the hell i'm going to be doing with the rest of my life. and then yesterday, ro-rider, fj, eats dick, shamtam and i had probably the deepest conversation about the whereabouts of atoms and what is their purpose in this universe. it made me feel kind of depressed actually. but nonetheless - can you imagine us with 3 fingers and no eyes and not feel so?

____

this was nice. i quite enjoyed writing this post. perhaps this blog is what is going to keep me sane and english-ified during my time in singapore. im going to make a promise now - i will not enjoy the service. i might EVENTUALLY like it and in about 10 years when im sitting on my beach chair down by some beach somewhere, look back at it and laugh at the times i looked like a fool, but you know...
