everything in
it's right place

public holidays! ok, it's supposed to mean more than that. ping loong's worship session today sounded pretty good, especially since it was only guitars piano and percussions. but wayne's violin sounds more like cat scratching. haha no offence. the later songs sounded quite nice though.

initially thought i was supposed to play after service for easter practice, but turned out that it was only for the choir songs. and i am playing in some of the choir songs, but only minimal nonsense stuff. so elaine said i might as well just go home. she said something funny during wednesday's practice. i was sort of just doodling and crapping guitar parts during one of the songs (you know, where i just plug the delay all the way up and play crap) - she told me to play more. then i gave her a quizzical look and said 'but i'm only playing... nonsense'. she replied 'erm... yah then play more of your nonsense :)'

ok maybe it doesn't sound right written out, but it's just one of those moments you never forget. slightly amusing, if anything else :)

went to adam road hawker center to eat prawn mee. yumyum had the mega big prawns. and a plate of indian rojak (i actually wanted the normal kind but i reached the stall and they only sold indian ones so heck lah. i'm not THAT racist). and ice kachang but my mom ordered ice jelly for me instead (heh) so i ended up eating that. and finishing all the leftover ice kachang because women (mom and vangie - evangeline) just can't finish proper portions to save themselves.

fell asleep for 3 hours. really a waste of time, sleeping, that is. especially since bookouts noowadays are ESPECIALLY precious, considering how crappy army is getting again. proceded to play my silly flight simulator again (lock on - modern air combat), flying a-10 warthogs, busting tanks trucks and not to mention getting shot down. again and again and again. but it's ok, dying in such an immensely complex and difficult game isn't really that embaressing. i mean, i can finally land my aeroplane ! the sucess rate is increasing, almost 100% zero damage landings. ok nothing to be proud of, considering that a failed landing in real life means dying (ouch). ok enough computer talk it's getting too nerdy.

went jamming with the sonny gang later in the evening. what a total mess. somehow in church everything just clicks, everyone (almost) knows how to play and read music. maybe sometimes people play nonsense (like me) but at least it's in time! poor jon can't even play in time to save his life (this phrase is getting passe). and i forgot to bring back my v-amp and podxt too, left them in church for easter service. so had to rent some crappy effects from the jamming studio. sound sucked, levels were all over the place and nobody could find a song that everybody knew. and those that we knew, well we didn't know the lyrics. we've really learnt this lesson one too many times - our sonny gang really isn't cut out for jamming.

went to eat prata at al-azhaar or whatever later. gosh murtabak and a dinosaur. super unhealthy. later went to huang ming's house to play gran turismo 4. i brought it back home :) the graphics are really nice, and i managed to trash huang ming even though i haven't really played the game since sec 4! haha or maybe sec3 (you could blame it on nikki..? there her name goes again) but eventually he won both jon and i.

finally back home heh. left the gt4 disc on my bro's bed. hopefully he'll see it and go buy one for himself tomorrow. then we can play it everyday :)

2am. time for some lights out.



damn, i miss you
