FANTASY!

I love fingerstyle guitar playing and no other musician can do it as good as Kotaro Oshio.Lately ive been listening alot and drawing alot of influence from this fella.This guitar instrumentalists ''nail attack'' technique has been fine tuned to perfection it makes me gawk over it!

Check out a few of his songs,just plain brilliant:


Someone slap him please..

The 1st song i heard from him.Love it on 1st hearing XD

If you play guitar,you see why i really appreciate his talent.Theres not much of his kind you hear often on the radio,most if it is ''Rock-N-Roll'' pretenders and ''R&B'' crap.And he's 42 now..

I soo wanna learn his techniques! Plus i managed to find some music sheets of a few of his songs after much searching on the net.If you guys are interested i can pass you them if you like =) Kotaro Oshio rocks!!

A reflection on 18 years of life

Yeah...18,no big deal really.Its just that the fact that im now of legal age is in a way abit intimidating to me.Theres a whole lot of responsibilites ill have to shoulder now,more than ever.

So what happened on Oct 6? Well,my phone wasnt spammed too much.Most of it was on Facebook and at school.My form6 friends and i went to Secret Recipe for lunch and that was about it.Quite simple.The most sweetest memory today was a 5 minute++ video my cousin from Japan sent me on Facebook.

Owh gosh,i didnt realize id miss her till i saw her and heard her! Haha its been 3 years now..Miss her now!It was really nice of her just to do that.

Okay now to reflect on 18 years of life.....

Well....

To sum things up,i was honestly never happy with my past.It feels like wasted years to me.Till this day its one of those things that i just want to forget.

I guess that it took me awhile before i could actually ''get on my own two feet'',but im just glad im out of that phase now.

To be really blatant,ive only ever felt like the past 3 years of my life were ever worth remembering and that ive had some really good memories only around then.

Its a funny life,the one i have.Plenty of ups and downs plus alot to think about,but hey,all i know is,it has been a blessed one,in more ways than one.

It may have taken awhile,but things are better now than they were years ago.Im just really thankful for where i am right now,and it is all by the grace of God.

I have a loving family (And relatives),ive been blessed with a true friend and whole bunch of other crazy yet lovable friends plus i can even afford a little luxury.Im WAY better off than most other people out there..for this i am truly thankful.

So yeah,18 years now and the future still has alot to offer,hopefully this will be a new starting point in my life as i strive to improve on it.Its not a perfect life,but it isnt a bad one either.All i know is,its one worth living for.

Thank you to all of you,for being a part of it,especially the ones who have added colour into my already weird and funny life!You guys mean the most to me and i could never be who i am now,if it were not for you guys.God bless~

And now.....back to school tomorrow....==''

Le update

Ooohh im crazy over Kasabian-Underdog.Catchy cool song.Lol

Haha so back to my life update again.

Finally found that damn flower (Read previous post) in SS14,guess i didnt look hard enough.Me,Soo Yee,Ann Nee and Yong Bin went there and managed to find some trees blossoming the beautiful flower....unfortunately the flowers were so high up on the branches that we had to borrow a ladder from a kind (But suspicious) resident nearby.Lol

To make matters worst,i had to stand at the highest step of the ladder just to reach them properly and there were huge red ants tormenting my efforts to pluck to the damn flower.

There was one tree next to this house,but by some streak of unlucky coincidence,the branch with the most flowers was steeping into the compound of the house.No one was at home it seems,as we deployed the ladder and used Yong Bins umbrella (Which was so useful) to pull the branch in our direction.The neighbours may have already been raising an eyebrow or two.haha

So yeah,got the flower and the experiment the day after was great.Hurray!

Apart from that,ive been watching this funny Machinima (Wiki it) comedy short series on Youtube called ''RED VS BLUE''.For those of you who have played the famous 1st-person shooter ''Halo'' for the Xbox would find this series extra funny.

Heres the link for those of you who have time to kill:

Worth watching!

What hols?

Owh God,ive been rotting my arse off since i came back from Singapore...

So lets see....

I was in Singapore for 2 days since last Sat to attend a prayer session for my grandad.Its been 1 year since he went off already,how time flies.Haha

Anyway,apart from prayers the rest of the Tong family are alright.ALL my cousins have laptops *Sniff*
There isnt really much to do there nowadays,i can remember in the past id so yearn not to go home because the Singaporeans usually have all the fun gadgets and games to play with.Seems i outgrew them eventually,hmm.

Couldnt find the guitar im looking for though,festive season meant that most of the stores were closed *Go figure* So its back to Malaysia to hunt for it.

Apart from that,i have finals looming in the horizon+A CERTAIN DAMN FLOWER WHICH I STIL CANT BLOODY FIND!

Sigh...and i have lotsa time to study,but what am i doing?......lol

The hunt for the Flame of The Forest

Lol it does sound like the title of some 2-bit fantasy story,but the reality is...im still searching for a flower with the mentioned name from the title.Been hunting around Subang in locales such as SS14,SS18 but i havent checked SS17 though....

BIO practicals on Tuesday and time is running out...fortunately,i bought myself the orchids already at a floral store and got the ferns by some trees.Haha

So what have i been up to besides that?

I got TAPTAP Coldplay for the Itouch,its DAMN fun! My current record for Viva La Vida is only 98% though....*Coughgeekcough*...Im in love with LOVERS IN JAPAN,great song.

I missed singing lessons again,Mark has a bad tendency to delay lessons last minute at his whims and fancies =/

Ill be going to Singapore next Saturday,gonna have fun =)

Next week is a school holiday.Hurray.*More boredom in reality*

Church today was good,i really have to do what i learn.Its though.but i have to try.....

I get writers block when i dont need it =S

Nowadays,its like there's only ONE thing i look forward to everyday,and it only happens once a week.lol
I have no will to be interesting right now. ==''
