So heres to you, a poem:

I Hope

I hope he bring you lots of misery
Boatloads of sleepless nights
A unfufilling relationship
Plenty of crap

I deserve better
Your damn loss
Sooner or later
Your going to be the last thing on my mind


I found out some really cool stuff today... Lifes cool, in that you will meet the right people at the right time, to tell you the things that you need to hear.... Stuff that will make sense to you and get you out of the hole that you are in...
Also, the stuff that you once thought were important, turn out to be completely unimportant at the end of the day... Wise words from a good friend, John Molina...

Heres what didnt work today:
- Triple shot of scotch whiskey
- The New Singapore Sling (Gin, Apple flavoured Vodka, Absinthe, Orange Juice laced with Chivas Whiskey)
- A really strong Screwdriver (Made with cheap Russian Vodka)
- A can of Guiness Draught

Heres the Sound Garden Black Hole Sun video... This is what modern music videos lack, an edge, creepiness, acid-trip like visuals and haunting lyrics....

Heres what grinds my gears:
- Hinder and that damn Lips of an Angel Song (where I work, the band is forced to play it on a daily basis.... Listen to the lyrics, they suck like hell...)
- People who dont seed in Bit Torrent (for Gods Sake let me have my porn!!)
- Teenage Dramas and reality shows (Falcon Beach, One tree hill, Laguna beach, you know the crap)

Heres what gets me psyched:
- Pink Floyd (so influential, a piece of musical art, you have to hear each album as a whole to experience its genius)
- Edinger Beer (light, smooth, with plenty of character, lots to love)
- My little sister at Rouge Outdoors, Majella (she is so fun to bully and shes the little sister my brother and i wish we had...)
- Clerks (Kevin Smith is a genius, speaking of all the shit that people in the service industry put up with on a daily basis)

My current favourite song is Black Hole Sun by the now defunct Sound Garden, as they have now become Audioslave.... Well anything the John Molina and Kruger play at Rouge, where i work is good, but this song is tops on my list right now... i would publish the lyrics if only the formatting would come out right but it has not...

Perhaps its the poetry of the words that draws me to the song, or the stonned out voice of chris cornell, or maybe the bleak and dark imagery it paints... whatever it is, it seems to express how i feel about my life right now...

Heres what Grind My Gears:
- People who say that they love the music of (insert pop icon who is overplayed on local radio, like Pussy Cat Dolls or any of that crap)... Whats the big fucking appeal of that kind of music?? The only this the group has going for it is a deep pounding baseline in their songs, plenty of big-shot cameos, sexually suggestive lyrics and videos, and hot girls.... dont get me wrong here, im not gay and i love hot girls, but whats the appeal?? The songs have no meaning, and encourages young girls to be sluts... And for gods sake, there is only 1 singer in the group, the rest are just filler.... What ever happened to meaningful lyrics thatcarried a certain poetry about them?? I though good music was more than having a synthesizer do all the work for you...

You know what really grinds my gears??

-Sarong Party Girls (SPGs)
-Local Radio
-Westerners who come to Singapore thinking they are the shit
-People who dont tip
-Absolut Vodka
-People not being straight forward

But heres the stuff that doesnt grind my gears:

-Good times with good friends (Booze included)
-Skateboarding
-Family
-Giving Up Smoking (6 days and counting)
-A good book

I noticed that whenever we look at our lives, we always seem to focus on the "bad" stuff... Like how much we hate our jobs, how life cheats you time and time again, how you are being ripped off everytime you drink at a club, or how you feel like nobody notices you... But then again, theres plenty in life to be thankful for... Im not suggesting the "look on the bright side" crap, but rather noticing that there are many things going your way in life... Not like ignore the bad stuff, but simply noticing the stuff that you didnt know was good...

"You know what? I may have a (insert bad thing in life), but then again, I have a (insert good thing) going on for me..."

Something to that effect... Fuck postiive thinking, this is realising whats so in your life...
