1 August / 10:04 PM

So I haven't blogged in a while. I'll do that now.

So yeah...I was in KL the past Saturday and Sunday for my cousin's wedding. Oh my God. I think it will be the grandest wedding I'll ever see. It was at some massive convention hall. The pelamin was like a whole freakin stage. There was even a clarinet player playing as my cousin and his bride walked to the pelamin. There was a 3 course meal. The great thing is that the whole family from Singapore went to the wedding. My goodness. When we took a photo with the bride and groom, it was pure madness. Haha. But that's our family. Wild and eccentric.

So yeah. I know I've told him this but still... Congratulations to my cousin Ideham and his newly-wedded wife Rizka.



Bad Religion - Requiem for Dissent


Oratory of hope and glory a whisper and a rhyme
An effigy, a soldier out of time
Citizen and patriot you can't be far behind
The funeral is weighting heavy on your mind

Requiem
Bring the dissident from slumber
Requiem
Raise the rebel from its grave
Requiem
Sound the revolution's thunder
A monumental blunder averted and betrayed

Dig around the cemetery a record of the day
Friends and neighbors in stages of decay
But the saddest thing of all eludes discovery
The stimulus for this somber ceremony

Requiem
Bring the dissident from slumber
Requiem
Raise the rebel from its grave
Requiem
Sound the revolution's thunder
A monumental blunder averted and betrayed

The sanctimonious minions how they grovel at the feet
Authority is populist deceit
Pity yet another casualty's demoralized decline
Just a victim of irrational design

Requiem! Requiem!
Requiem
Bring the dissident from slumber
Requiem
Raise the rebel from its grave
Requiem
Sound the revolution's thunder
A monumental blunder averted and betrayed


Who doesn't like good ol' punk rock. A great CD anyone should get is the Warped Tour Compilation. All the old punk acts and all the new ones. Great mix of stuff. Get it.
