5 things I hate about Season 3 of Singapore Idol

1)Farhan " Pretty Boy" Shah is very unfortunately still in the competition. The guy can't sing. Seriously. I can drink a bowl of alphabets, fart out a string of words and it will still sound better than him. dear lord he attempted a falsetto and whatever that is that came out sounded like one of those cats being raped or something. Hahaha , its kinda like me and jerome singing "creep". Together.

2)The people who vote and support him. I have this very strong dislike for people ( particularly adolescent girls ) who just vote blindly for these kind of contestants. People like farhan feed off these young girls' obsessions with their idols. They have absolutely NO sense of talent and somehow derive gratification from voting for their guy even though they know that he can't sing for shit. And think about the amount of money they must waste on him. They could pay their parent's medical bills after hearing him sing with that money.

3)Instead of the Pretty Boy being eliminated, one of my favourites Syltra Lee was out. That really really pissed me off. I thought she was so impressive at the Piano Show! You can check out her Piano Show performance here. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FE-nbHDdQB4. And judge for yourself whether or not she deserves to be out.

4)Fathin Amira. I think she's like a female version of Frodo Baggins. If Frodo ever participated in Hobbit Idol.

5) There are no " Rock " contestants. A lot of pop and jazz ... but ... NO ROCK. I remember Season 1 had sylvester. and Season 2 had Jonathan and Paul Twohill. And season 3 has ...
So. fingers crossed in hoping to hear someone sing "Sweet Child Of Mine".

That said, I really do appreciate the rest of the contestants. I think Charles Wong rocks with his rendition of Flo Rida's "Low". Sylvia Ratonel is really hot. So is Tabitha Nauser. I think Faizal has got really cool moves and the voice to boot. More importantly he chooses the right songs because both songs he sang are 2 of my favourite songs. I really enjoyed Duane Ho's Pokerface rendition, even better than the original I would say. He makes me like Lady Gaga.

Happy Mugging! I have been doing so for the past 4 hours.

P.S. I'm expecting death threats from farhan's fans anytime now.

Gaming

Hahaha I think this commercial or spoof , however low-budget it was, really epitomizes my beliefs. namely my dislike for Twilight whores ( " I belong to Team Edward! " then *screams randomly) and secondly my absolute love for all things gaming. Enjoy.

Btw ... 0.36 to 0.41 ... PRICELESS

Suit up

Today ... we celebrate life as well as death. We celebrate victories. Actually , just my victories. Today, on the 22nd of september , a new era of gaming was born. Today, we celebrate the release of ...

Halo 3 : ODST

The Ballad of Gay Tony

I was reading an article on the second and latest GTA IV Downloadable content : The Ballad of Gay Tony, on www.IGN.com. and they mentioned remote explosives, train-jacking, parachutes and rocket launcher-shotgun fusions.

Oh and one more thing . There's gonna be a tank.

For 5 whole minutes, I could not wipe that damned smile of my face. I'm such a GTA whore.

Nice try

I warned you

The Moment of Truth

I just wanted to say how much I enjoy Singapore Idol and how it plays with people's feelings so well. I remember how one of the girls thought she was gonna be accepted into the final 12 and she had this big grin on her face. Then Gurmit asks one of the lousy contestants to stand up next to her and all of a sudden her face is so damn grim. LOL. that was classic.

There seems to be quite a lot of homework this holiday. Comparable to the June Holidays. But at least we had 4 times the amount of time to complete them and half the number of holiday lessons and tuition. In fact I still have my Social Studies/Geography Practice Paper/Higher Chinese/Physics and Chem left to complete. Basically 1/2 of the total homework. I'm really starting to hate this thing called Stress and Pressure.

and NO ONE can own me in Halo. I repeat . NO ONE . so don't bother tagging about the contrary because I've recently activated a application on my tagbaord. Its called ... Nicholas-is-the-Master-Cheif-without-his-helmet app.

(Stop reading my blog. Do your homework man)

So this is what a dream feels like

I feel so Synester-esque today. My guitar teacher taught us the guitar solo to Hysteria ... which was an interesting experience. There was a girl in the class who broke down. It went something like this ,

Guitar Teacher : " Hey you okay ? "

Ms I-look-like-I-slash-myself-constantly : " Its soo hard ! ... "

and I was beside her (XingZaiLeHuo)-ing because I nearly perfected it. Hell, the fact that I just used a Chinese proverb is a real testament to how proud I am of myself today.

In other news, I feel like I'm procrastinating more and more. Not to the extent that my L1R5 will drop to like 44. In fact I got one quarter of that. But in the sense that when I tell myself to finish my D23, I'm actually off annihilating the human race in GTA 4. With the holidays approaching I do not know what to expect. But I'm pretty assured that I won't die very horribly. Like a terrified Jie Kang in Halo 3.

Thankfully, they don't call me the Discipline Head for nothing. A small excerpt from my experiences as a Discipline Head.

*guy struggling to don his beret -> Discipline Head walks by.

DH : " 3, 2, 1 ... Adjustments Cut! ... You. Knock it down. Can you speed up next time? Adjustment cut means no movement already. Carry on 10."

Poor Guy :" One Seargent. Two Seargent. Three Seargent"

DH : "I can't hear you at all. Start from negative 1. "

Poor Guy : " Negative 1. negative 2 .. "

ROFL. Anyway it seemed hilarious to us Specialists at that time.

Its 12 ! That means its the 6th of September and also the birthday of my all time best friend Choong Xiu Ming.

Hey man. a very big Happy Birthday to you. I have never known a friend as joyous and friendly as you for the past 15 years. Sometimes you bring back happiness into our lives when no one else can. Though I know you may feel troubled by love and infatuation sometimes, I hopethat you will find happiness in your life someday. Perharps in some secluded corner of Macdonalds? So therefore ... to a fellow FANBOY ... the person who has a slight chance of winning me in Halo ... and forever my good friend , Happy Birthday Xiu Ming :)
