Woah...Long time since I posted here. Before anything I'd just like to wish anyone who's celebrating a Merry Christmas/Happy Hanukkah/Happy Kwanzaa.
So yeah, as you can see, I'm very busy. Doing my attachment now at this web design company. We do websites for hotels and stuff. Not a bad gig it seems so far. I've actually been offered to stay on a little longer before I head off for NS. I'll just keep it in view for now...
Met with the Four4 (or whatever was left of them) peeps the other day. It felt good to go out and have a bit of fun. Life was hitting routine quite fast since attachment started. Thank God for these long weekends we have. I also have the PBMA chalet on Friday. Can't wait for that.
Now that I've been doing projects and attachments and stuff, I find that I kinda miss studying. I think it's that lack of learning that is bumming me out. It seems my brain is dying out on me even though I still am busy with work. Even the pages of news I try to read everyday on MSNBC.com can't stop my brain drain...
That's why I have found my cure for boredom at work. KNAC.com and Grooveshark Lite. KNAC is this old rock radio station from the U.S. that now houses itself online. My brother told me about it and it's the greatest thing. I wanted to listen to radio so that I didn't have to bother with choosing songs but I couldn't bring myself to listen to all the crap that they play on mainstream radio these days. So ta-daa. KNAC.com to the rescue.
Grooveshark on the other hand is for when I do want to listen to a particular song. It houses millions of songs on its servers and all I have to do is search for it and stream it. I can even make playlists and stuff. So there's no hassle in having to run a media player.
I really can't wait until browser-based computing takes off...
Oh yeah, Sembawang Shopping Centre just re-opened. They've got great shops there. There's a Challenger store, Fish & Co., Hei Sushi and don't forget Giant. Though I can't understand why there are no fast food outlets and of all coffee places why did they choose to have a Starbucks?! Godammit...
I've been watching a lot of live vids recently, in particular the Roadrunner United Concert. Some great collaborations in that one. Like this song called the Dagger. The personnel playing this song include:
Howard Jones / Robert Flynn - vocals Andreas Kisser / Jeff Waters - lead guitar Jordan Whelan - rhythm guitar Adam Duce - rhythm guitar Paul Gray - bass Andols Herrick - drums
And Adam Duce, bassist for Machine Head on guitar, you just can't find anything else that can top that. It's just a great concert made up of great musicians.
