  1. Songs

    September 25, 2003 by barffie

    would like to sing songs like these.
    do chillout vocals for songs like these.
    > Gorecki by Lamb
    > Manic Star by Conjure One
    > Hummingbirds by Venus Hum
    (thanks to Auranoir for intro-ing these songs to me)
    and house tracks are good too… ;\

    i got quite a wide vocal range, plus i suit higher scale tracks-
    which means these songs would actually flatter n suit my voice…
    but the inner devil in me is still working overtime.
    saying “You’ll piss in ur pants when u stand on the stage…”

    “if i should die this very moment
    i wouldn’t fear
    for i’ve never known completeness
    like being here
    wrapped in the warmth of you
    loving every breath of you
    still my heart this moment
    or it might burst

    could we stay right here
    ’til the end of time, ’til the earth stops turning
    wanna love you ’til the seas run dry” – Gorecki by Lamb


  2. Movies

    September 24, 2003 by barffie

    watched Italian Job.
    not bad. not exactly WONDERFUL or mind-blowing.
    (maybe it’s the SEATS right??? HMM guys? too farrrrrrrrr back?)
    have expected this standard from an action film man…
    ok it’s the genre,
    the thieves-cooks-up-incredible-conspiracy-and-executes-powerfooly
    kinda genre… :P
    seen before- a little spent liao the subject,
    and not as much Mini Cooper scenes as the hype made it out to be…
    edward norton was so-so only…

    ok… GIMME ANOTHER FIGHT CLUB OR SOMETHING DAMMIT!
    i want good movies.
    guess the last good one was the overall well-produced
    Pirates of Caribbean.


  3. On the Playlist…

    September 22, 2003 by barffie

    hmm… as u all know i’ve always been raving abt house music,
    and electronica and music like that.
    but on this night,
    i found myself putting this (sort of) classical track on loop.
    and furiously downloading different variations of it…

    the theme track from Requiem For A Dream…
    the movie is very good indeed…
    but i dun use to find myself being drawn to the score
    of a movie like this…
    yes there are good tracks in certain movies like Romeo + Juliet,
    but they are mostly songs…
    the first few minutes (of Requiem) was all it took for me to say…
    “this is a haunting track…”
    and it does bring out the heaviness and the mood of the show very much…
    as i’ve mentioned to someone – “it’s so heavy that it hurts.”

    and did i mention a different version of it has been produced
    for the Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers trailer?
    ahz… no wonder i could recognise the tune when the trailer’s
    playing on TV Mobile a few days back.

    one thing i have to admit is -
    i din think so much of the movie, or of the soundtrack sometime later…
    but my thoughts were revived by this ad done by a (powerrrr)
    German design firm, Velvet Design.
    and so i thought – “hmmrph… there goes the haunting track.”
    then i found myself sifting through Kazaa’s search results,
    track information and clips streamed on VH1.com…

    and there they are,
    sitting on my Winamp playlist now. on loop.


  4. Back To Work…

    September 20, 2003 by barffie

    oh man going back to work on tuesday…
    i dun want i dun want!!!!!!!!!!! *kicks and screams and stamps feet*
    but hell yeah…
    i HAVE to go back… ABCDEFG!!!
    feeling uber lazy man… :|

    recently nothing much to talk abt…
    quite stoned… quite empty… quite peaceful…
    furiously listening to songs…
    and RE-liking this Kylie Minogue song…

    Come imagine me dancing to this one… >:)
    Assholepup we shld practise the dancesteps again huh…
    beat those 2 disgusting guys!!!
    moahahaha…

    “I just can’t get you out of my head
    Boy your loving is all I think about
    I just can’t get you out of my head
    Boy it’s more than I dare to think about

    Every night, every day
    Just to be there in your arms
    Won’t you stay
    Won’t you lay
    stay forever and ever and ever and ever

    I just can’t get you out of my head
    Boy your love is all I think about
    I just can’t get you out of my head
    Boy it’s more than I dare to think about

    There’s a dark secret in me
    Don’t leave me locked in your heart
    Set me free
    Feel the need in me
    Set me free
    Stay forever
    And ever and ever and ever…”

    woohoo! *dances to kylie minogue’s shrill voice…*


  5. Happy Birthday to Me

    September 18, 2003 by barffie

    Moahahahaa happy 22nd birthday to me…
    but doing nothing at home… :P
    hard to get ppl to meet me to cheong or something on weekdays…
    (not like rave who got her bd on sat in 2002 n sunday in 2003)
    wanted to go Mambo (ladies night ma…)
    but couldn’t find girls to go w me…
    guys wun wanna pay to party on a weekday…
    so… XP

    “I feel so calm tonight
    like I’m floating into space
    I feel my anger now
    vanishing without a trace
    I feel so weak tonight
    I’m no longer in control
    I feel so different now
    that it’s time to face my soul

    You gave me the time
    to change the memory
    But if I forget myself -
    Will you remember me?

    Will you remember me?

    I feel so bright tonight
    like I’m glowing in the dark
    I feel so distant now
    burning like the smallest spark
    I feel so weak tonight
    like I’m hardly even there
    I feel much older now
    but I’m still too young to care” – Disremembrance by Dannii Minogue


  6. Children?

    September 16, 2003 by barffie

    OOOOooK….
    got back from Orchard (where i am going back later)
    the Sheraton Towers ballroom is BRRR fugging cold…
    nearly froze my wrists off…
    got weak wrists, esp the left wrist…
    cannot seem to tahan cold air for even short periods of time…
    i guess it spells bladdy rheumatism for me at old age…

    As for the Adobe shit…
    all is well and all is good…
    but i din manage to win the premiere pro software… damn!
    not as if my computer is power enough to support tt,
    but at least i can sell ok!

    not thinking abt much currently
    except what to wear to jacq’s thingy later…

    took 14 home just now…
    suddenly find myself in the middle of a busful of sec students
    hollering to each other at the top of their voices,
    jolting me out of my peaceful weekday afternoon nap on the wobbly bus…
    the fresh-faced youths… the pre-maturely jaded me…
    ahz tt was a long time ago man… *nostalgia*

    i feel old inside. and i am afraid of being old.
    so i got insurance to protect myself (somehow), to prepare for old age.
    i dun wanna be supported by my children tt much,
    i know the amt of pressure on those shoulders- i understand tt perfectly…
    but they have to learn to be less dependant at a younger age.
    they must learn to be street smart.
    and they must understand money has to be earned,
    not appear miraculously in their bank accounts.
    i’ll want them to earn their keep, and be able to fulfil their dreams.
    i’ll give them a hand for sure, but i have to make sure i do not hinder them…
    i’ll want my children to run free (not run wild),
    to be free of family chains, but not of family ties for sure.
    i’ll pin my hopes for freedom on them.
    but then again, i might not wanna have kids. -_-”’

    “Tall and tan and young and handsome
    The boy from Ipanema goes walking
    And when he passes, each girl he passes goes ahh
    When he walks, he’s like a samba
    He swings so cool and sways so gently
    That when he passes, each girl he passes goes ahh

    Oh, but I watch him so sadly
    How can I tell him I love him
    Yes, I would give my heart gladly
    But each day when he walks to the sea
    He looks straight ahead, not at me

    Tall and tan and young and handsome
    The boy from Ipanema goes walking
    And when he passes, I smile
    But he doesn’t see, no he doesn’t see” – The Boy From Ipanema


  9. Eye Problem

    September 10, 2003 by barffie

    Dun feel too well today
    My eyes feel like there’s a piece of rock inside or something.
    My fault – because I wanted to “stretch” the use of my contacts for a few more days… Now I suffer – STOOPID ME!
    Was desperately trying to blink the discomfort away the entire day,
    but no use… ;\
    I hope my cornea is not coming off!?!
    Ok I’m freaking out I know…

    Left my entire MP3 collection in office – now nothing much to listen to…
    so sad… :P Boring as hell…

    Argh my eye!

    Alot of things to buy and to spend money on recently,
    like birthday presents, wedding ang pows, stuff to wear on e wedding,
    things to do to myself (like coloring the hair…) and stuff…
    but i haven’t gotten those vanity products YET.
    and it’s already wednesday… or rather the end of wednesday now…
    HOWWWWWWWWWWWW…

    no motivation for work recently.
    just uber lethargic.
    uber sianz.
    looking forward to my leave… :)
