Back to Malaysia

Been back to Malaysia for almost a week already.

But I haven't got much time to online and update the blog. Didn't bring my laptop home. Can't be bothered anyway. Good food + tv + friends + family = enough for my 3 weeks stay in Malaysia.

:P

Will do a good update or 2 when I'm back to Perth. Tata!

Power ballad week?

What's a Power Ballad?
1. It's a rock song
2. It's a *slow* rock song
3. It's usually sentimental/emo
4. It's awesome to build up your emo-ness then release it all out at the final chorus

example:

Nickelback - Far Away:

or..

Bon Jovi - Always:

That kind of made me dig up my collection of power ballads (which I actually still listen to them quite frequently. They're nice, who cares if I'm emo or not when I'm listening?).

So here's mine.. may I present to you...

Bon Jovi's..
Bed of Roses




Sitting here wasted and wounded on this old piano
Trying hard to capture the moment,
This morning I don't know
'Cuz a bottle of Vodka's still lodged in my hand
Some blonde gave me nightmares
I think that she's still in my bed
As I dream about movies they won't make up me when I'm dead

With an ironclad fist, I wake up and French-kiss the morning
While some marching band keeps its own beat in my head while we're talking
About all the things that I long to believe
About love, the truth, and what you mean to me
And the truth is
Baby you're all that I need

I want to lay you down in a bed of roses
For tonight I'll sleep on bed of nails
I want to be just as close as
The Holy Ghost is
And lay you down...
On a bed of roses

Well I'm so far away, each step I take's on my way home
A king's ransom in dimes I'd give each night to see through this payphone
Still I run out of time or it's hard to get through
Till the bird on the wire flies me back to you
I'll just close my eyes
and whisper,
Baby, blind love is true..

I want to lay you down in a bed of roses
For tonight I'll sleep on a bed of nails
I want to be just as close as
The Holy Ghost is
And lay you down
On a bed of roses

While this hotel bar hangover whiskeys gone dry
The barkeeper's wig's crooked
And she's given me the eye
I might have said 'yeah'
But I laughed so hard I think I've died
Ooh-yeah..

Now as you close your eye, know I'll be thinking about you
While my mistress she calls me to stand in her spotlight again
Tonight I won't be alone
But you know that don't mean I'm not lonely
I've got nothing to prove
For it's you that I'd die to defend

I want to lay you down in a bed of roses
for tonight I'll sleep on a bed of nails
I want to be just as close as
The Holy Ghost is
And lay you down....
I want to lay you down in a bed of roses
For tonight I'll sleep on a bed of nails
I want to be just as close as
The Holy Ghost is
And lay you down......
On a bed of roses

A cooler summer day

Finally a day that's cooler than usual. Clouds + a 15 minutes drizzle sure cooled down the weather by a hell lot. 27 degrees yo!! For once in the summer, I didn't have to sweat like hell in my house, or when I'm walking down the streets.

For once, I didn't feel like wearing only boxers in the house during the afternoon -.-

But I don't have a pair of boxers. Ahahahahahaha. Screw that.

That was yesterday. Today it's 30. But it isn't that bad. Still pretty nice. The house doesn't feel like steamhouse.

Lately, I don't have that urge to touch any online games at all, except for Utopia, cuz it's sort of a commitment that I can't just shake off whenever I like. But I'm sure as hell that I'm leaving by the end of this week. <3

I kind of lost that emo feeling lately. Wonder why. Thinking back, I think I was quite emo a few weeks back. bleh.. Of course it wasn't pleasant at all, but I couldn't help myself? .__.
Well it's a good thing I've shaken it off now. Right now, I'm feeling.. hmm.. Excited! And nervous? XD
Excited? Cuz I'll be back in Malaysia and seeing all my gays and biatches again; Cuz I'm sooooo gonna eat kao Malaysian food when I'm back there.
Nervous? Teehee~~~~ ^^"

Chronological events since New Year's Day

Jan 1st
New Year's Day!! 39 degrees!! Luckily we escaped to karaoke to blow 3 hours of air-con during the hottest time of the day. phewh

Jan 2nd
Dinner at Hong Kong BBQ for sister's Birthday. weee

Jan 3rd
Sister's Birthday. Bought lotto in the afternoon.. Then at 6:30pm, the news channel announced the lotto winning numbers. One of my games hit the 4th Division win! And so me and my sister were so excited, tried to find out payouts online later, then ALL OF THE F***ING SUDDEN, my laptop adapter decided to stop working!! There goes my 2nd last week till I go back to Malaysia, I thought. Ordered a new adapter from eBay. so all my winnings from Lotto went straight into buying the new adapter. *Sigh*

Jan 4th
Novel reading spree commenced. And I decided to pick up 24 and started watching it.

Jan 5th
Nothing much.

Jan 6th
The seller messaged me on eBay that the product had been posted on Express Post. Woo!
Went to pick up my poor guitar. I guess it was fixed pretty nicely for 80 bucks.. But the problems were not addressed 100% perfectly, so oh well. I guess by the end of this year I'll buy another guitar that is not a cheapo. Lesson learned: fingerboard moisture must be maintained well to prevent neck and fret problems.

Jan 7th
Nah..

Jan 8th
Claimed my Lotto winnings! Also my adapter arrived today.. Finally I can use my laptop again.


11 more days till I fly back to Malaysia~~~ Really can't wait :S
