One more draggy day...



Nothing much to ponder about.
Just thought it was really funny!
(insider joke)



And lately, there seems to be a lot of lack-of-any-sense schemes going around which no one seems to think otherwise except me. I guess the well has more than one frog. Such is the beauty of the world... stupidity aplenty.

Nothing much to look forward or do today. Just goddamn fucking tired out from dragging my heavy shoes around. Can't fucking wait for the day to end so that I can go have some proper rest on Sunday. Don't bug me, my cellphone will be off. I need to take a break, take some time to make sense and reconsider some things that are currently on the table. In the meantime, I'd appreciate that everyone spares me any more half-baked ideas...

One more day to go!!!!

Moo...

Totally redundant and random. Really!



*snigger*

Cocksters!


Every so often a really stupid idea is suggested and made into a law... like the no-smoking in clubs ban when 80% of club patrons are smokers. I don't know, but does catering to the whims of the minority 20% makes any fucking economical sense? Club culture, alcohol and tobacco are some of the ingredients that go hand in hand. This new ban is like amputating an arm. It's like drinking a glass of boiling Coca Cola. Anyway, for whatever reasons... the law is here to stay. Viva Singapura... a fine city indeed!

But what's more cock is that some clubs are actually holding parties to USHER in this new ban. Like how fucking cock can you get? It's a death of a tradition that will only mean a drop in business and you're actually celebrating the inevitable loss of income? How cock can you get? Apparently... DAMN FUCKING COCK!

Then again, why am I not surprised when there are tons of idiots, retards and morons that run rampant within the club industry today. We're assured of even more cock ideas and non-thought-processed concepts for sure... hu-fucking-ray!




p/s I'm not biased against people at all but if they rub me the wrong way, like offering me an Ecstasy, I won't bother further except for dead-pan mono-syllable answers. Period. Name of particular cheap-skate character with-held to save him any embarrassing arrest from my mates at the anti-narcotic police department. But do note that he's not the boss of the club that I work at, although he constantly claims to be on a weekly basis.

BY THE FUCKING WAY...

... SOUNDS FAMILIAR?

One down... two more to go!



*mega-yawnage*

Two more bloody days to go till Sunday.

By the way, someone should bring these boys in...

I tell you... THEY FUCKING ROCK!

Thursday, June 28, 2007

Noob!

Idiots and noobs are everywhere. An ICBM called "Flying Fuck" which I'm very hesitant to launch ... is on ignition!



Don't mean to bitch but I think people, in general, should try to climb out of the well first, look at the facts of the matter, before making assumptions and accusations. Pushing the buck is fucking easy. Admitting one's own shortcomings is hard. It's convenient to gloat and to point the one's finger. But do that to the wrong person and you'll get a slap of reality, as far as I'm concerned at least. If this seems harsh and blunt, reality check... the truth's never pretty. So there and 'nuff said!

p/s Been there, done it... since 1991.


Countdown has began!


Still sitting around, waiting for Sunday. Three more days to go...

My 3 wishes...



Oh... okay then... here goes :

1. I wish it was Sunday (coz I lost the mood for everything else).
2. I really wish it was Sunday (no kidding. no drive left!).
3. I wish stupidity doesn't exist anymore!

Sunday's just a couple of days away so I can still endure a few more days of putting up a false front. It's a bit worrying when I only look forward to my rest day every week. Don't really know how I arrived at this state of losing interest in the many things that I used to be be passionate about. The only next thing that I'm really looking forward to now is perhaps the next
Progressions. It's the only thing that reminds me of my ability to spearhead a brand-name and also to re-assure me that I still have it in me.



Other than that, I'm practically mechanical on most days. I'm not in the very least interested in any formalities / meetings / public relations / pleasantries / repetitive issues. My brain's practically comatose state. See above bicycle for visual explanation.

I know the last wish is a bit hard to fulfill, because in doing so would mean wiping out more than half the world's population. Then again, won't that be so much better? No more stupid people around to deal with or to get frustrated over. Wait, that's actually bad because it'd mean I no longer have people to bitch about. That's would be make life really boring. Hold on to the last wish then... let me give it some thought.

Till then, you can go ahead and grant my first TWO wishes... like NOW!!!

This Friday



Expect a healthy dosage of delicious House anthems
to dirty electro numbers from India's Denon DJ ambassador
.

Shopping with Bunz...

It's been awhile since I actually went shopping. Today's an exception. It was a really nice evening out... simple yet wonderful! I miss days like these that makes all the struggles and frustrations in life worth it. I was given TWO very nice silver rings. Yet to figure out what to engrave on them as I'd like to be reminded of significant people / events in my life.

As promised a while back, I wanted to buy Vera Wang's Princess as a gift. Personally, the scent is downright sweet and intoxicating. Suits someone's character very much. Oooops! Too much details. Anyway, I finally got it. And it reminded me how pleasant it is to do something nice every now and then, and to see that secret smile :)




As you can gather, scents are a big thing for me. Thus I can't stand people with bad body odour (nothing to do with race here) or bad breath. I'm such a sucker for aroma candles / therapy so we ended up buying... The Bath & Basics Co.'s Sandalwood (Calm) and Fragrant Rose (Love). Both of which are divine! Can't wait to try them out!




And since I'm in a really GOOD mood today, I won't bitch or rant. Pleasant thoughts bring a healthy mind, you know? Oh yes, I want BATH TUB too!!! I need that soak therapy. :p

REPERCUSSIONS

Learn it well. I see it going to happen again. I'm not saying who, I'm not saying when. Just that it's going to happen if "people" continue walking with their eyes and ears closed. There's a wealth of history to learn from but if one is not bothered to climb out of the well, you'll never see the entire scheme of things. So there. Repercussions. I'll be the one to say "TOLD YOU SO" when it happens.

It's Too Late... YUMMY!

It's not trance but even Paul van Dyk is dropping this tune. Originally a rock tune from a New Zealand band and remixed by the ever excellent Dirty South from Australia. Cross-over Electro at it's best. The nasty distorted bassline is downright contagious... in my opinion.

Monday morning, hesitate
I can't get out of bed
I'd rather go back to the dreams
I'm living in my head

Tuesday evening, pack my bags
I'm heading out the door
I left a box of memories
Lying on the floor

Running from the city lights
Running from this empty life
I'm running out of time tonight
Screaming out for help!

It's art and if you don't get it... you're probably stoopig!

Fucking great! Woke up at 5pm. Nothing much left of the day to do jackshit. Probably spend the time doing some net research. Still fucking inspired and mesmerized by the prop installations at The Art Bar...


And here's a bunch I found so far and I really adore. Shouldn't be too expensive to get them printed on high quality waterproof paper and then stuck on backing boards. I'd most certainly like my future recreation room to look like the above. Interior designer nu-skool stylee!





Fuckwits really rule the world, don't they?


"Beautiful" people. Free drinks. Same old tune week in and out. Supposedly to create client loyalty. Novelty wearing thin. Everyone's doing it now. Pardon my ignorance but seriously... the point being when it's not really progressing or showing any adverse returns? Why not-so-good turn-out? Sander van Doorn was in town for the very first time after much anticipation. Don't ask WHO? Google it. The thing is that the novelty angle is down to 10 g/m2 thin. Thus the age-old saying, "never put your eggs in one basket". But usually, people forget this golden rule.

And our nice looking bar downstairs has officially been converted to a neighbourhood coffeeshop with the arrival of old "ah bengs" and "chinese helicopters" that play drinking dice / finger guessing games, speak very loudly and swear Hokkien vulgarities like their life depended on it. They make the trio of helium-sucking girls sound sedated. So much for trying to be posh and trying to play "upmarket bar music". Sure they spend money but at the same time jeopardizing the concept and purpose? How to market such an image when we have media people around to witness such an UGLY environment? You tell me. Paula Abdul said once before, "you take one step forward, two steps back."


"Kan ni nah. Bladda, why you say ah beng?
We also human ok? You cut us, we also breed leh.
You very high grass meh? My pattern very lose face meh?
Don't talk so much lah. Lai ah, lim ah!"


Oh, and drunks shouldn't be put in-charged of anything. In fact, they shouldn't even be talking. Whatever happened to "lead by example"? Totalitarianism and iron-fist ruling... not applicable anymore. Sure, don't teach your father how to fuck. But that's so passe when we're in the nu-skool generation whereby the son would tell the father to "go fuck yourself!"


"Oei!"



Nuff said. No point getting cheesed off. None of my concern, really. Not worth the increase in blood pressure. Friday was good but could have been better. Then again... there isn't really a secret formula. Just a matter of listening, observing and catering to consumer's expectations, and not be mercenary. Anyway, it's better to just not say anything, except maybe... There Are No Right Angles In Nature.

In the meantime, my fave "emo" tune for Sunday (if there is anything left of it after I recover for the entire week of tiredness...)

Saturday, June 23, 2007

The week in one liners!

01. Thank you Fred-E and CDJ Ben for playing at Dazed Out.

02. Copycat! Kiss a dirty rat!

03. We do not serve PEANUTS nor PRAWN CRACKERS in the club (note : Thursday)

04. Club seems to attract wrong type of clientele most of the time... complaining the music is too "boom boom" and asking for chillout music when we already have that at our bar. STUPIDITY redefined.

05. Coming to a House Music club and wanting to "dedicate love song". (DUH!!!!)

06. "You all got plasma. Can Karaoke?" (FUCKING DUH!!!!)

07. "Got Happy Birthday Song?" (EVEN MORE FUCKING DUH!!!!)

08. Saturday models free-flow party... AGAIN! Mega yawnage!

09. Dirty Electro... oh la la! Love the new sounds!

10. "Yukun, when is the next Progressions?" (dunno but I'm keeping my toes crossed)


*LOVE SWEATS*
My short break awaits me :)

Friday, June 22, 2007

I should have stabbed you back then!

There was this particular pig that I wanted to slaughter a while back but the person I was with back then, pleaded with me not to. In all honesty, I should have gone ahead with it and rid this world of one less fucking scumbag. Maybe the next time I bump into this piece of crap, I'll purposely pick a fight with him. It's been a while since I shattered anyone's nose bridge with a palm fist thrust. Normally, I don't condone violence as a solution to anything but sometimes, when dealing with dodgy and shady characters... you just can't help it. The world will definitely be a much safer and nicer place without them.

If this "whoever" happens to read this posting and knows that I'm referring to you, I dare you to fucking confront me with whatever "army" you have. Or even better still... SUE ME! I fucking dare you to deny your REAL OBJECTIVES AND INTENT! You would've been dead years ago without knowing who slit your throat from ear to ear, if no one had stopped me. And if I wanted you hurt badly now, there are many people out there who knows you and will do me that favour in a second... no questions asked. I'm not making a threat here. It's a fucking statement. Don't piss me off. Don't mess with me. The next time you push that "click" button, the camera might just blow your fucking head apart! For know, watch your back... Mr. Eight Ball!

By the way, you're no longer welcome at the club either. I personally kick your sorry ass out! Trust me, you just woke up the sleeping beast in me. And I'm not interested in your explainations either. As far as I've concerned, I can't be arsed!

Readers : Apologies for this very personal rant.

Hearsay or what?


SOMETHING STRANGE IS GOING ON...

Thursday, June 21, 2007

Things can only can...

Having a bad day?


Remember, it could be worse!


You probably can't beat mine. Got back from work way pass 4am. By the time I tried to sleep, it was almost 5am. Barely two hours later, Satan's child starts running up and down the fucking corridor, laughing and screaming aloud. His grandmother screeches along, apparently trying to "control" the little bastard from making too much noise. Fucking stupid idiots, these people. Here's an idea... toss the fucking kid down the rubbish chute and do the entire world a favour! Kill the anti-Christ now before it's too late!



Just when you think all that high pitch noise (coming from the grandmother), is bad enough... promptly at 8am, the fucking drilling and renovation works upstairs go into full orchestral swing. Putting on my earplugs certainly did not help because it was really LOUD.

And then guess what? 8.30am, the fatfuck neighbour (the one with erectile dysfunction) decides to join in with his carpentry ruckus of hammer and nails... right outside my bedroom window!

So here you have it, in epic proportions till about noon. Demon child and high-pitched grandma providing vocals. Contractors right upstairs with their poorly coordinated masterpiece. And the amateur carpenter knocking away. What a fucking glorious day, isn't it. By the time these motherfuckers are done, I've yet to grab any proper sleep and have developed another fucking migraine! And guess what? Due to the late nights and the lack of rest, I'm coming down with fever and flu again. Fucking brilliant! What the fuck did I do to deserve such arseluck and such fuck-up cunts as neighbours?

Really in a fucking "fantastic" mood now. If I had a gun...


Art Bar rules!


Dropped by The Butter Factory last night to say "hi" to Fred E and his mates, who were dishing out their mish-mash of music at the Art Bar. I'm totally intrigue with the art installations there. There's just so much character in all of them. If there's ever going to be an auction for them, I'll be there in an instant. Love them to bits!!!

And just when I thought the amazing visuals stops there... this is what was in the mainroom...


When I do eventually get a place of my own again (if ever), I'll going to deck it up like them... or at least the creative work room.

Damn... right now, I would kill for a pair of customized Adicolors...

Tuesday, June 19, 2007

Tuesday... hate it!



... look what I did with my keyboard!
*plans for little getaway before going insane*


And now, let the mockery continue...


Staff Sergeant Wah Kow Peh :
"You see that cock recruit there?
Go ask him how much fucking starch he put on his uniform!
At the same time, get me a can of Tiger.
Fucking thirsty!
Hurry up and don't fucking take your own chee bye time!"



Recruit Tan Koo Koo
"How's this for standing at attention?
Tornado or typhoon also no problem!"



But it ain't as cock as this...
HARDSTYLE "made for the braindead" TRANCE
and the accompanying spastic dance moves.
Fucking retarded!

Monday, June 18, 2007

Bah...


I still hate Mondays.
I just want to sleep the day away.

Fuck, it's Monday!

I can't find my T-shirt that says...



... really fucking hate Mondays!

"The world is full of divorced women" - Jackie Collins

Melacholic Monday

I'd really love to get the hell out of here and start life anew if I could. Really tired of the way things in my life always doesn't turn out the way I want them to be and all the bumps I face is really getting me down mentally and spiritually. I really need a new sunrise... metaphorically speaking. Right now, life's a bit aimless and lack of any clear direction. I don't know how long I can last being a piece of driftwood. I need to get back that drive and inspiration I had... like really soon... otherwise... *sigh*

Sorry, being alone on Sundays just gets me really down. The silence is just too loud... and the stalemate is pulling me six feet under really slowly.



In the meantime, "god-daugther Nanami" says happy belated Father's Day... I'm finally going mad :(


In the light of the sun
Is there anyone?
Oh it has begun
Oh dear you look so lost
Eyes are red and tears are shed
This world you must've crossed
You said...

You don't know me, you don't even care
Oh yeah, she said...
You don't know me, and you don't wear my chains
Oh yeah

Essential yet appealed
Carry all your thoughts
Across an open field,
When flowers gaze at you
They're not the only ones
Who cry when they see you
You said...

She said I think I'll go to Boston
I think I'll start a new life
I think I'll start it over
Where no one knows my name
I'll get out of California
I'm tired of the weather
I think I'll get a lover
And fly them out to Spain
I think I'll go to Boston
I think that I'm just tired
I think I need a new town
To leave this all behind
I think I need a sunrise
I'm tired of the sunset
I hear it's nice in the summer
some snow would be nice... oh yeah

You don't know me, you don't even care...

Boston, where no one knows my name...

Dirty, Filthy and then some...



Despite the constant (irritating) power trips during the late night, it was a pretty good outing at the club yesterday. We had the Hidy & Izam from Elektron, the local Electro DJ collective, playing guest slots. Nasty Electro ruled most the night... except for the embarrassing Bob Sinclar's "World, Hold On". Then again, it's a crowd anthem. Nice to hear David Guetta's "The World Is Mine" after such a long hiatus.

For those that are still uninitiated and still yet to embrace the rapid changes in electronic music or still don't get it (or probably never will)... the face of dance music has changed drastically. Some will eventually get it, some will never due to having the typical Singaporean mindset of being a frog-in-a-well. Nonetheless, till the next one... and for Heaven's sake, please don't fed Razaq and me *yucky* alcohol ever again (RE : last Friday). We tend to do really silly things thereafter.



Yukun (tired and stoned) + Hidy
