Voices

I miss the part, when we were moving forward now
On our way down
But maybe someday, I'll be something more than love
Just know I'll never tell

And when you're on your way down
Through the clouds
And you're waiting for your body's re-entry again

We speak in different voices
When fighting with the ones we've loved
We speak in different voices
Why can't we say what we're thinking of

I'm missing parts, now that you've told me everything
On our way down
And I was blessed and I've forgotten how to love
You said you'd never tell

And when you're on your way down
Through the clouds
And you're waiting for your body's re-entry again

We speak in different voices
When fighting with the ones we've loved
We speak in different voices
Why can't we say what we're thinking of

Not even I will tell,

We speak in different voices
When fighting with the ones we've loved
We speak in different voices
We say these things to know they're real.

We speak in different voices
When fighting with the ones we've loved
We speak in different voices
Why can't we say what we're thinking of

We speak in different voices
When fighting with the one's we've loved
We speak in different voices
We speak in different voices

To know they're real. Real.
I'll never...

tired... i was asked whether 115 was worth the pay.
Saosin opened for incubus last thursday night at fort canning and played an hour set, mannn how i wish that set will never end. Everyone was rocking so hard and mad. Although we came alittle late but jrm, gary and i managed to get our way through the front row from the center spot, it was the craziest thing and one of the worst mosh pit i've ever been stuck in. Everyone in the front was pushing so hard that a whole lot of us lost balanced, fell, and the worst part was we couldn't get up haha. Its one heck of an experience, my left arm was pretty busted and the poor girl who landed on top of me tried so hard to get herself up cause nobody gave her a hand. I was soaking wet after the concert, my shirt felt cold and i really needed to shower badly, my shoes and my jeans had mud all over which was kinda gross lol, seem like as if i was part of and in the navy for the day. My friend won tixs to the concert and he had some issues with some of the moshes and didn't get to watch incubus in peace compared to other concerts we been too lol we had really good view and stuff, so his glad that his tix was free this time round and he asked me whether 115 was worth the pay? Overall it was insane but fun, and 115 for two bands that i love? yeahhh its worth iit, just that i too probably didn't get to focus on incubus set as much as i wanted to beacuse of the mosh, but both bands were reaally awesommeee live

so american idol has come down to their top 24 and yesterday i was watching the top 12 guys performing the 60s. If you followed american idol you probably know who is Danny, and gosh that guy is really gay or what? lol! Tonight will be the top 12 girls, i've just missed half of the show on channel 5, will have to catch the repeated one later on starworld.


anyways these are the guys i'm rooting for!



"The DOUBLE Ds"
I love the "davids"- David Cook and David Archuleta!

Photobucket
David Archuleta, 17
Home Town: Murray UT
Audition City: San Diego

i think for a 17 years old Archuleta vocals is just amazing, the way he sang "Shop Around" yesterday was perfect! doesn't sound like a 17 at all. Has a charming smile, sweet and haha he laughs quite abit


Photobucket
David Cook, 25
Hometown: Blue Spring, MO
Audition City: Omaha

Cook is coool, ok i love the way he started off "Happy Together" in his own version, it was plain awwesomee.



Photobucket
Robbie Carrico, 26
Hometown: Melbourne, FL
Audition City: Miami

Robbie reminds me of Bo Bice lol and i kinda agree with what simon said about him who looks like a rocker but he doesn't sound exactly like a rocker hahaa he has a good voice though just probably not convincing enough lol he sounds like someone who can proabaly end up singing "Moonriver" much better then Jason Yeager? who knows..

Have you ever loved somebody so much
It makes you cry?
Have you ever needed something so bad
You can't sleep at night?
Have you ever tried to find the words
But they don't come out right?
Have you ever?


Have you ever?

Have you ever been in love
Been in love so bad
You'd do anything
To make them understand?
Have you ever had someone
Steal your heart away?
You'd give anything
To make them feel the same?
Have you ever searched for words
To get you in their heart
But you don't know what to say
And you don't know where to start?


Have you ever found the one
You've dreamed of all your life?
You'd do just about anything
To look into their eyes?
Have you fin'ly found the one
You've given your heart to
Only to find that one
Won't give their heart to you?
Have you ever closed your eyes and
Dreamed that they were there


And all you can do is wait
For that day when they will care?


What do I gotta do to get you in my arms, baby?
What do I gotta say to get to your heart
To make you understand
How I need you next to me?
Gotta get you in my world
'Cause, baby, I can't sleep


Have you ever?

my k750i phone actually survived after it was being dropped directly into a puddle of rain water.

my dad was nice enough to give me a ride to work last friday and i had quite a few stuff to carry on the day itself, it has been raining for the last couple of days and the floor has been freaking wet. I totally forgot about my phone that was on my lap, so when i reached my work place and got out of the car "piak" it fell straight right into a puddle of water. I still took a few seconds later to pick it up because both of my hands were occupied. I thought to myself "its a gone case" my screen was kinda screwed, water sipped in, you could see the colours change and some functions couldn't be seen. Spent about 20 mins in the toilet taking out its cover, cleaning it, and trying to get the water out lol but apparently it didn't work i was running alittle late for work so i had to just leave it alone until after work.

to cut it short, i tried again after work and went to the restroom, smacked it against my palm, shaked it and use the hand-dryer, Stood there for at least 25 mins and amazingly it helps and it worked.

now my k750i is still working perfectly fine. in conclusion, its either the smacking and shaking was good or sony ericssons are just amazingly awesome lol

who makes a better villian?

was surfing the net and i came across an article from entertainment weekly on "criminal minds" it features some of the "baddies" from the different US tv shows. Out of all the criminals sylar and t-bag caught my attention and just left a random thought. Sylar VS T-Bag.

Zachary Quinto
as Sylar In Heroes

Sylar is a merciless sociopathic killer who is the son of a clock maker. He wanted to be different from being a normal person, wanted to be someone more special. This dude here looks at human as a form of the inside of a watch/clock. Ability he has is Intuitive Aptitude, its the ability of knowing how things work by looking at them, he consumes brain in order to see and absorb other powers.

I think Sylar is brilliant! one little mistake in a watch even one sec behind the usual he can tell without checking. Doesn't care how you feel as long as you got what he wants, the supernatural power inside you that is useful to him he consumes nothing else but your brain. Focus on nothing else but just supernatural gift he can get. His eyes and his stare is the best you can get from a killer. Makes a perfect villian?


Robert Knepper
as Theodore Bagwell "T-Bag" In Prison Break

ok as for T-Bag his one of the most "villianous" criminal in Fox River who is sentence to life imprisonment for his overated crimes such as battery assault, murder, kidnapped and rape. His America's Most Wanted. This guys here goes to the extreme and do whatever it takes just to get what he wants [that includes ripping his hand to escape from the officers].

headed down to St.James Powerstation last thursday to catch daughtry's showcase. Although it only lasted about 55 mins but watching chris live was more then just satisfying. It was an awesome acoustic set.

the door opens only at 7.00pm that night my buddy was there around 530? and there was already a queue thanks to him we got a pretty good view. i bought his album sometime back, my favourite songs are "over you", "home" and "it's not over" well actually i love the whole album it's worth buying honestly.


Chris Daughtry - It's Not Over

a video i recorded during the showcase. you can check out more videos in youtube others have uploaded too.
