Another passion of mine...


I might not have a mesmerizing vocal prowess. I might as well not a versatile singer. Having said that, singing is still one of my passions. I sing almost everyday regardless of time *wink*. As far as I can recall, I started to love singing since my kindergarten years. Yup. I started my early education at a missionary kindergarten - St. Francis Kindergarten - and that was the time when I was exposed to music/singing. Of course, during that time, most of songs were praise and worship kind of songs. 

Then, after I completed my pre-school education I moved to primary school. I went to Sacred Heart primary school; a missionary school as well. There, I started to join the school's choir team and attended music class in which I learnt music notes. The first musical instruments I played was the recorder! Unfortunately, I was never good at playing it *sigh*. I lost my passion to learn playing the instruments as well as the musical notes. However, my passion for singing never diminish. I even tried out for Bintang Kecil but never made made it to the final...

In secondary school, I was actively involved in choir. The school always send a team to the inter-school choir competition which is an annual event. During that time, I had the chance to become the conductor as well as singer. Competition was tough back then. Each choir team will not reveal their songs even during the rehearsal - this was done by the "favourites", if u catch my drift. As much as I hated it, there was this one particular school that always become the champion - for most of the years. So, everytime we took part in the competition, people (even the teacher) will say, "Perform well and get the second spot because the champion is already obvious." We were like, "WTH?" 

Now, in my tertiary level of education, the passion is still intact. However, I'm no longer participate actively in any choir competition or whatsoever. I've now become a so-called karaoke-addict. Karaoke outlet become a must-visit place during any free time for my friends and I. Gone are the days when the only place to go for karaoke was the tiny karaoke booth that can only fit in four people the most -depending on the body size of course! Rented karaoke room is chosen over the tiny booth simply because the latter has better sound system and much more comfortable. As oppose to the tiny booth, 1 song cost RM1 and most of the time the microphones are not in good conditions - not functioning and even greasy (eeuww!). Rented room is much better because the rate is actually affordable (some outlets have special price for student like me!), there are ample of song collections and look much more exclusive than singing in that tiny booth where people can actually see you from the outside.

Oh. Too much rambling already. Just to let you know that I'll be performing for the coming dinner. It's going to be an acoustic performance. After several discussions with my musicians (cewah!) we decided to perform our renditions of I'm Yours (Jason Mraz) and If I Let You Go (Westlife). My stomach is already started to be filled with gazillions of butterflies than I guess eventually transform into dragonflies! I do love singing but I have this thing called "stage fright"...Hopefully everything will be just fine and most importantly I'll be having a great time performing as singing is indeed another passion of mine.

Why do I love you...


Suddenly she's
Leaving
Suddenly the
Promise of love has gone
Suddenly
Breathing seems so hard to do
Carefully you
Planned it
I got to know just
A minute to late, oh girl
now I understand it
All the times we
Made love together
Baby you were thinking of him
Why do I love you
Don't even want to
Why do I love you like I do
Like I always do
You should've told me
Why did you have to be untrue (love you like I do)
Why do I love you like I do
Ain't gonna show no
Weakness
I'm gonna smile
And tell the whole world I'm fine
I'm gonna keep my senses
But deep down
When no one can hear me
Baby I'll be crying for you
Why do I love you
Don't even want to
Why do I love you like I do
Like I always do
You should've told me
Why did you have to be untrue (love you like I do)
Why do I love you like I do
Can't go back
Can't erase
Baby your smiling face oh no
I can think of nothing else but you
Suddenly
Why do I love you
Don't even want to
Why do I love you like I do
Like I always do
You should've told me
Why did you have to be untrue (love you like I do)
Why do I love you like I do

Oh crap!!

I was at the backseat of my classmate's car together with my other friends and we're heading back to hostel after the lecture ended. That was the time when I received a text message from the operator that I subscribed reminding me to settle the outstanding bill worth RM350! I was effing shocked staring at the huge amount. Never in my life my usage reached that amount. As far as I recall, my maximum usage was only RM50. No more than that.

I went online and double-checked my account and again I was astounded when I discovered my billing statement has a long list of unknown called numbers. I went through each of the numbers and I can only recognized few numbers that I familiar with. The rest are all unknown numbers! Crap! 

Then, I called my dad and told him about it. Dad was also shocked. I asked my dad's favour to go and terminate my account immediately as I was not sure the location of the nearest branch of the provider. Dad agreed. At about 6.50 pm my account was finally terminated. Dad gave me a call through my other number and told me that the officer at the provider's branch in KK initially didn't allow the termination to be made unless he has paid the outstanding bill. Dad told me that he had quite an argument over the issue and decided not to pay a single cent to the company. At last, they gave up and my dad managed to terminate my account without having to fork out a huge amount of money from his wallet. 
Having my postpaid account being terminated, I made up my mind and decided to go for prepaid...*sigh*

Take a Bow...

Take a Bow - Leona Lewis
The flowers are faded now along with your letters
They will never see the light of day 'cause i'll never take them out
There's no turning back it's for the better
Baby i deserve more then empty words and promises
I believed every thing you said and i gave you the best i had

So take a bow 'cause you've taken everything else
You played the part like a star you played it so well
Take a bow 'cause the scene is coming to an end
I gave you love all you gave me was pretense so now take a bow

And the future's about to change before you know it
The curtain closes take a look around
There's no one in the crowd i'm throwing away the pain
And you should know that your performance made me stronger now

So take a bow 'cause you've taken everything else
You played the part like a star you played it so well
Take a bow 'cause the scene is coming to an end
I gave you love all you gave me was pretense so now take a bow

Well it must have been slight of hand 'cause i still can't understand
Why i could never see just what a fool believes
But the lies they start to show
Tell me how does it feel to know right now
That i won't be around so baby before where ever you are

Take a bow 'cause you've taken everything else
You played the part like a star you played it so well
Take a bow 'cause the scene is coming to an end
I gave you love all you gave me was pretense so now take a bow

'cause you've taken everything else
You played the part like a star you played it so well
Take a bow 'cause the scene is coming to an end
I gave you love all you gave me was pretense so now take a bow
Take a bow

Cheated On Me - Gavin DeGraw

I'm love-sick somewhere tonight
I'm love-sick somewhere tonight
I don't need writing on the wall
I've felt it for so long
Am I even on your mind
Or are you now in...

[Chorus]
Someone else's eyes
Someone else's arms
Someone else's obvious moves
I'm a jealous guy
I hear people talk
And it isn't hard to believe
I think you cheated on me

I've been this love-sick before
I've felt just like this before
There was another just like you
I loved her for so long
But I had poison on my mind
And I drove her into...

[Chorus]
Someone else's eyes
Someone else's arms
Someone else's obvious moves
I'm a jealous guy
I hear people talk
And it isn't hard to believe
I think she cheated on me

[Bridge]
I said I've had this sense before
But I left an open door
For this to walk into my life
And maybe I suspect too much
But it's just hard for me to trust
When I'm all wound up inside
I just drive you off and into...

[Chorus]

Someone else's eyes
Someone else's arms
Someone else's obvious moves

I'm a jealous guy
I hear people talk
And it isn't hard to believe
I was never easy to please
And I think you cheated on me
