I'm a little bit agitated

Wasted one day of my life yesterday. What was I up to?

Let's just say I attended an extremely lousy imitation of a seminar. Which I initially assumed was inclusive of a few informative talks by some lecturers, a tea break somewhere along the way, and maybe some motivational moments? Boy, was I in for a rude awakening. 

The so called lecturers were lousy right down to the Y. They hardly even taught anything useful, much less give info related to the course itself. Amazing, all they did was entertain the 40-odd people (which strangely included many ladies in their 40s) with their wise ass jokes. And imagine sitting through their 'threats' to punish us to a song for a total of 5 and a half hours. The term 'bad experience' would definitely be an understatement, to say the least. 

Hmm. I can't really divulge much in fear of being hunted down which will turn out to be a real ugly situation. So that's about all I'll reveal here. Though I'm still pretty pissed over the whole 'time wasted' issue. Plus I paid $1XX for that?! Hmph.

I love this guy. Interesting facts: 23 years, Swedish Idol runner-up, co-wrote V Factory's Lovestruck. 

His version of Viva La Vida is pretty awesome too.

MUST WATCH

Credits to Rickey.org:

Directed by James Frost, OK Go and Syyn Labs. Produced by Shirley Moyers. The official video for the recorded version of “This Too Shall Pass” off of the album “Of the Blue Colour of the Sky”. The video was filmed in a two story warehouse, in the Echo Park neighborhood of Los Angeles, CA. The “machine” was designed and built by the band, along with members of Synn Labs ( http://syynlabs.com/ ) over the course of several months.

They should really get an award for this. Think of all the details, planning, testing. Man, I can go nuts making this.

This midwest town is gonna miss you

This guy/song/guy+song just makes me smile. Definitely goes on my HappySongs playlist. :)

I think I may have OCD.

Okay. I'm just gonna post some stuff I've been listening to here so I can find them again next time when I have one of  those 'what's that song again?' moments. Trust me, I do.

First off, Varsity Fanclub. I know, Erin's probably gonna blast me for putting this up since I basically became an anti-VFC fan after finding out they've made a cover of NLT's Like Dat. Grr. Stick to your own songs, will you? NLT may have been whack but to me, they still are the ultimate modern day boyband. Period. So go away haters.

Just kidding. :P (I bet nobody even gets what I'm rambling on here)

Original by NLT (RIP)



Cover by Varsity Fanclub


Ish. Geramnya.
Anyway. Life goes on.
I really really dig this next one. Cute and cheesy but totally not mainstream. Loves it.
Girl Like That - With lyrics!


And now. My new rebound band. V Factory!
(FANGIRL SCREAM)
With Asher Book from Fame! (you know, the one who sang Try?)
I quote fellow fangirl: 'The moment I saw Asher I blacked out and had to start watching it again'
LOL LOL LOL
V Factory - Lovestruck (Live)


Sick moves.
But no wait. They are funny people too! Check this out.


This is the kind of thing that makes me happy. Heh. I'm pretty easy to please.

Real life Barbies?

 

  

  

  

Dolls?

Nope. Just Girls Aloud.

Reminds me of a certain asian group, hmm. Super cute though.

Grammys

You know what? It's been raining award shows since Jan. And I sure had fun watching all those airbrushed celebs walking down the red carpet being critiqued by our favourite Enews correspondents. I absolutely enjoyed Joan Rivers on the Fashion Police, by the way. Call me a bimbo, but it's interesting (and funny) to see how celebs who are supposed to be the epitome of high fashion, get carried away with their stylist. Sometimes I'll just be like, WHAT. WERE. THEY. THINKING. Mouth open and everything. Even the girl on the street can dress better!

So let me have my say on the recent Grammys. Honestly, I love the show. Never missed a single one. The performances are always special, with remixed songs or even surprising pairings. You never know what they'll be throwing at you. This year's started pretty good, with Lady Gaga and Sir Elton John opening. You can never go wrong with Lady Gaga. She sings LIVE, for one. And the whole duet thingy was amazing. Was kinda distracted by the earring though. Heh.

 

He stole my art, he sto-o-ole my art

Beyonce was as bootylicious as ever. Thought she was gonna fall anytime in those heels. Eek. Wouldn't want a repeat of that. Hmm, what was next. Oh yeah, BEP. Heavy bass and dancing/jumping human boomboxes. Awesome. Don't really like their latest single Imma Be. Why must people use wrong grammar in songs? It's cool, really? Don't know about that. My dad was definitely puzzled. 

And then there was T Swizzle. Aka Taylor Swift. Oh yeah, there wasn't a Kanye in sight. Interesting. She was a little blah, not in her usual glittery outfits. Was a little surprised she took home the big one, Best Album. I bet all those other nominees were shocked too, having lost to 19 year old Taylor. Well, I guess it pays to write your own songs. Kudos to her for that.

Very 'chao lao'. Heh.

The MJ tribute was just weird. In 3D?! Come on, the success of Avatar doesn't mean that anything would look better in 3D. Instead, the celebs just looked awkward in those glasses. Trying to look cool too. Not right lah. Should be available ONLY in theatres near you. 

You're never gonna be anybody else
You're never gonna see until you see yourself
So come on come on see how it goes
Come on come on take a deep breath
And don't let go
