Sick

Down with throat infection, flu, fever. What a fucking awesome way to start FWOC.

Breaking Benjamin – Forget it

It’s a crime you let it happen to me
Nevermind, I’ll let it happen to you
Out of mind, forget it there’s nothing to lose
but my mind and all the things I wanted

Evertime I get it I throw it away
It’s a sign, I get it, I wanna stay
by the time I lose it I’m not afraid
of looking at you truly fake it

How can I believe when this cloud hangs over me
You’re the part of me that I don’t wanna see

Forget it

There’s a place I see you follow me
Just a taste of all that might come to be
I’m alone but only breath you can breath
to question every answer coming

Just send away
Please me let me stay
Coming your way

Forget it

It’s a crime you let it happen to me
Out of mind, I love it, easy to please
Nevermind, forget it, just memories
All the pain inside a spiral notebook

Just send away
Please let me stay
Coming your way
I can live forever here

Forget it

How can I believe when this cloud hangs over me
You’re a part of me that I don’t wanna see

I can live forever here

Journey – Faithfully

[ link ]

Highway run
Into the midnight sun
Wheels go round and round
You’re on my mind
Restless hearts
Sleep alone tonight
Sendin’ all my love
Along the wire

They say that the road
Ain’t no place to start a family
Right down the line
It’s been you and me
And lovin’ a music man
Ain’t all it’s supposed to be

Oh girl you stand by me
I’m forever yours…faithfully

Circus life
Under the big top world
We all need the clowns
To make us smile
Through space and time
Always another showWondering where I am
Lost without you

And being apart ain’t easy on this love affair
Two strangers learn to fall in love again
I get the joy
Of redescovering you
Oh girl, you stand by me
I’m forever yours…faithfully

Oh, oh, oh, oh …
Faithfully, I’m still yours
I’m forever yours
Ever yours…faithfully

Changes

I’m playing for a chinese rock band… band name can’t be disclosed due to ongoing and pressing issues, but there’ll be recordings and photos up when the time’s ripe. We’ll be playing at Esplanade on the 16th August, so updates to come soon.

Of broken spectacles and amazing spectacles.

So my frameless specs decided to give way on me today out of nowhere. Fucking frame snapped into two just as I was removing it – photos up as soon as I get the camera out of the dry cabinet.

On a side note, I seriously, seriously, seriously cannot stand people who make a spectacle out of themselves in public places. Just fucking die already.

154th media and a loaded SAR-21 Rifle

Early on while I was still at work, I happened to chance upon (hehe. happened. chance.) an article on Dave Teo’s case and I read with amazement at how absurd the entire thing was. Dave Teo stole a SAR-21 automatic rifle, along with 5 live rounds out of his camp while on guard duty. He retrieved three more rounds from his house, and proceeded to Geylang to fuck the shit out of a hooker. Happy with his fuck, he took the loaded rifle and went to town – yes I say loaded because he cocked and loaded a round into the chamber, and like any good NSF, placed the fucking rifle on safe. 1 day off for Cpl (Was he a cpl?) Dave Teo for remembering what his Platoon Sergeant said in BMT, “FUCKING CHEEBYE TEO PUT YOUR FUCKING RIFLE ON FUCKING SAFE YOU JIBAI WHICH PART OF SAFE YOU DON’T UNDERSTAND YOU WANT ME TO GO THERE AND FUCKING SLAP YOU ISSIT! PUT YOUR FUCKING RIFLE ON SAFE YOU CHAO CHEE BYE!”

Anyhoo. He proceeded to fuck around a little, before finally being arrested at Cineleisure’s toilet, and here’s the kicker, with the motherfucking rifle on him, complete with 8 live rounds. For the uninformed, the SAR21 fires a 5.56mm round, and fires at a rate of (if I don’t remember wrongly) ~600rpm. Which meant that if that crazy motherfucker squeezed the trigger with his SAR21 set on auto, it would deplete his rounds in less than 2 seconds.

So this Dave Teo steals a rifle, steals live rounds, tells his friend/pimp/ossifer, that he wants to kill himself/scare his gf/shoot and kill 5 people he hated (delete where applicable), and receives 9 years in jail and 18 strokes of the cane. The Judge even said gave him encouraging words and told him to make full use of his time in jail. Yeah right, I hope the only way he’ll make full use of his time is to figure out which way to cut along his wrist

Why so harsh? You ask.

Let me break it down for you in simple laymen terms. Dave Teo expressed intent to kill 5 people, expressed intent to scare his girlfriend with the rifle, expressed intent to kill himself. If I walked around telling people that I wanted to stab some dude with a screwdriver, and actually stole one from a hardware store, I would be royally, majorly fucked.

Dave Teo went AWOL and left his assigned place of duty before he was officially relieved. That would be summary execution in wartime, and probably jail term during peacetime.

Dave Teo stole a motherfucking rifle and live rounds from his camp. That would be jail time with lots of KY jelly.

Dave Teo was sentenced to 9 years in prison and 18 strokes of the cane, and may be charged in a military court when he ORDs from Changi Prison. How can anybody in their right sense of mind allow a person like him to walk the very streets that he did, albeit carrying a fucking loaded rifle, to be allowed to assimilate back into society, the very society that he threatened and the very country that he betrayed by shaming his comrades in green?

Oh yes did I mention that because of his very cool act of walking out of camp with a loaded rifle, the Duty Ossifer, the Guard Commander and basically anybody around or above him in rank would probably be subject to disciplinary action?

Non-prevention of offences

(b) fails to take any steps within his power to cause that person to be apprehended,

shall be guilty of an offence and shall be liable on conviction by a subordinate military court to imprisonment for a term not exceeding 2 years or any less punishment authorised by this Act.

So yes, please tell me again why there’s so much press coverage over such a retard. Pray tell me why.

I bring you attention over to http://www.channelnewsasia.com/stories/singaporelocalnews/view/358406/1/.html, where an EVO driver crashed into a cab and killed both the cabbie and the passenger on the spot.

Is this not juicy enough news for you?

Young punk crashes heavily modded rally/race car into taxi, killing both the passenger and the driver instantly! All this and more, only on Channel FuckenFive!

But yes, fucking young punk with a need for speed gets his daddy to sponsor moolah for him to zhng his “brand new” 2nd hand EVO, complete with fucken huge-ass spoiler, side skirts, sports rims and of course, the ZHNGED AND TUNED engine.

He raced a DC5R, heavily modded no doubt, and tried in vain to catch up with the car, thus beating a red light, and crashing into the taxi.

And all that, just to impress some chick who was probably sitting next to him, gripping the sides of the new and impressive looking bucket seat and trying her best not to puke her fucking guts out. Well gues what, she probably wasn’t too impressed, seeing how she had to be taken to the hospital, then to the Police Station for questioning – and hey! If she’s a driver too, she’ll be charged for not stopping him from racing!

Channel News Asia dedicated a page to this incident at http://www.channelnewsasia.com/stories/singaporelocalnews/view/358406/1/.html, and flashed a short Newsflash for all of 10 seconds.

Straight Times (because its so impartial, its straight!) didn’t bother running an article because it didn’t concern: Singapore Politics, Malaysian Politics, Rape, Murder, Anal Sex, Oral Sex, Gay Sex, Lesbian Sex, Tentacle sex… oops did I say that?

Well, so where’s the press coverage on this incident Mr. Newsman? Sure, Dave Teo’s parents lost their son, but surely his life should be worth less as compared to two innocent parties right?

Right?

Where’s the motherfucking press coverage you bunch of pencil-pushing dick-sucking pus-nutted pencil-cocked shit-for-brain pansies.

The Charge of the Light Brigade

Half a league, half a league,
Half a league onward,
All in the valley of Death
Rode the six hundred.
“Forward the Light Brigade!
Charge for the guns!” he said.
Into the valley of Death
Rode the six hundred.

Forward, the Light Brigade!”
Was there a man dismay’d?
Not tho’ the soldier knew
Some one had blunder’d.
Theirs not to make reply,
Theirs not to reason why,
Theirs but to do and die.
Into the valley of Death
Rode the six hundred.

Cannon to right of them,
Cannon to left of them,
Cannon in front of them
Volley’d and thunder’d;
Storm’d at with shot and shell,
Boldly they rode and well,
Into the jaws of Death,
Into the mouth of hell
Rode the six hundred.

Flash’d all their sabres bare,
Flash’d as they turn’d in air
Sabring the gunners there,
Charging an army, while
All the world wonder’d.
Plunged in the battery-smoke
Right thro’ the line they broke;
Cossack and Russian
Reel’d from the sabre-stroke
Shatter’d and sunder’d.
Then they rode back, but not,
Not the six hundred.

Cannon to right of them,
Cannon to left of them,
Cannon behind them
Volley’d and thunder’d;
Storm’d at with shot and shell,
While horse and hero fell,
They that had fought so well
Came thro’ the jaws of Death,
Back from the mouth of hell,
All that was left of them,
Left of six hundred.

When can their glory fade?
O the wild charge they made!
All the world wonder’d.
Honor the charge they made!
Honor the Light Brigade,
Noble six hundred!

Update

To post a blog entry on the internet would be mean the forfeiture of privacy, and an unwritten agreement to let the whole world read your article, derive and infer from it, and make conclusions based on it.

Therefore, this blog shall henceforth be used in the <b>acceptable and appropriate blogstyle</b>, with only lyrics, complains and bitching about friends, as well as day-to-day accounts of how I went to town and saw some chick but never got around to touching her neh neh, or seeing some ugly guy or girl in town and mocking them.

This blog will be far more intellectual than before.
