I have a problem. 
Aha, don't worry it's not a drug problem, or something (JEEZ) It's just that I have this irritating habit of wanting to find the name of any new song I randomly hear on commercials, on the radio, in movie trailers, or even in the supermarket (you know, cold storage plays some pretty sweet tunes) So the other day at Far East I noticed (technically not noticed, since I heard not saw but err doesn't matter) that most of the shops were playing covers of current pop hits. It took me a while to realise that, though. You'll understand. First, check out one of the songs below. 



Yeah, I know. Sounds like the stuff they play at the Starbucks. Eheh. But admit it. Don't you actually like the music they play there? Suits the atmosphere and kinda enhances your java sipping experience. Haha. Despite how cheesy it sounds, it's true! 

They're a Filipino group that covers pop songs, Bossa Nova style. Was extremely difficult to look up anything about them though. Very new, I suppose. But they're managed by a Singaporean company. So I'm guessing they distribute it to the stores here for our shoppers' pleasure? Haha. 

New songs for my playlist! Nice.

Okay, for a few weeks I've been googling Prince George's Park Residences hoping to catch a sneak peak of the rooms. Sadly, I couldn't find any recent pictures. AT ALL. People are just too lazy to upload, huh. Anyway, the moment I reached I whipped out my camera. In the blog they go.


Was pretty impressed by the room. A little small, I suppose. But I had a smaller room back in Anglican House, so I was satisfied. And oh yeah. Did I mention this one's a single room?


The study table is built in, so it's quite sturdy. Nice. The shelf below is movable though. Wheels.


The bed size? Single. But I bought a super single bedsheet and it fit just nicely. Apparently they don't sell single size bedsheets anymore. Asked around. People sleep with their limbs outstretched now. How comfortable. Heh.


The wardrobe. There's a set of drawers in there that can be locked. Lots of space for clothes, with extra storage units above and below.


Common toilets. Is it me or was I the only one using the toilets? Super squeaky clean. 


Common kitchen. Each floor has its own, so don't worry about the fridge getting hogged. Looked unused. The kettle smelled funky. 


They have an electric oven! Oooh.


Doubt I'll use it. Haha.


Main foyer. Looks like some high class condo.


And the best part, the minimart! They have everything here, from pillows to cereal to stationery! I even found a USB hub there. And cheap cheap too. Fairprice ain't got nothing against them. Just a 2 min walk from my place.

So there you go. PGPR, 2010 edition.
You're welcome.

What time is it?

Sum-mer time!

Err. Fail. Never mind. The point is,

It's time to switch up my music library to make space for some slick summery tunes. SXSW has plenty of awesome indie music up on Youtube. Why have I not seen this earlier? Gosh. It's like indie music porn there. Overloaded on raw, authentic music. Good stuff.


Now I feel like Lilo from that Disney movie.

I'm gonna dance someday, y'know?


dream 1 @ Yahoo! Video
 
What an NLT-filled week. First with Artie dancing in Glee. Like ZOMGSPIDERS! He's the most fantabulous dancer among all the Glee kids (trust me, I used to be so obsessed back in '08, jeez) and they are SO evil to put him in that wheelchair! Stupid fraks.
They must have this miraculous moment in the future (hopefully sooner) when Artie finally gets out of that chair. This is television, things can happen. 

Next is Travis Garland on American Idol. OMG that's the biggest platform to kick off one's career! Good for him, though I still sorta blame NLT's breakup on him. Hmmph. Anyway, hope we get to watch some NLT action on the stage. Beeteedubs, first time I'm watching Idol with enthusiasm this year. Sweet move, Idol.

Move aside, Vampire Weekend.

Two Door Cinema Club may very well be the next VW. Check it.


Or if you're feeling emo today, try All Time Low's Remembering Sunday.


This one's the original actually. With Juliet Simms. Now she's a screamer.


How would we survive without music, seriously.

Remember this? Even if you don't, I command you to watch all of it  NOW. Shoo. Pretty amazing stuff there.
How do people come up with any of that??? RIDONKULOUS.
Anyway, there's a new video up! The battle continues.

Come on, aren't you even remotely interested in how a guy could manage to play, let alone CONSTRUCT, a tune on GAMEBOY??? It's a friggin game console! Whoa.

Kinda feel like it don't make sense.

I know, I know, I'm a bloody hypocrite. I say I hate singers who autotune themselves but hey, everyone says stupid things sometimes, right? I can't get this song out of my head! Roped my sister in too. Now both of us are singing this song day and night. Even in the shower, before we sleep. Argh. Catchy tune, catchy lyrics. Gets me every darn time.

 The Ready Set - Love Like Woe (the video's just too cute so must feature on blog heh)
