I cannot stress enough on how much love is a lot whenever I say 'I love you'.

Post-Urbanscapes 2012

So I lost my slippers at Urbanscapes 2012. Walked barefoot for the whole night, on muddy grounds and on the road where them fuckin' little stones can get in your way. It hurts a little. Then I only had dinner or should I say, supper at midnight with Jessica, Jared and Y.T. Oh and I finally know how it feels like to drive barefooted. Its illegal.

Been walking around like a hobo, and people might think I stole my own car. LOL. I thought it wasn't gonna be as muddy as yesterday, thought it was gonna be dried up. But no, rain started right before Sheila Majid's performances.

And I swear, I almost fell asleep when Sigur Ros was performing. Goodness me, their type of music is not to my liking. I can't believe I stood for an hour or more for them.

Oh wells, you only live twice that's the motto n*gga YOLO.

Urbanscapes 2012 was fun, but there are a lil bit of disappointments. Like the prices of the food and drinks, and I can't seem to find the official merchandise booth for the event. And the muddy grounds, fuck it la!!

Thought for this month.

I just realized I spent shitloads of money on concerts. I spent a lot on Swedish House Mafia, getting the part zones, and then there's Urbanscapes, and Thrist 2012 at Sepang this coming 8th of December. Just when I thought its gonna be over, Taio Cruz, Steve Aoki, Yolanda Be Cool, Redfoo of LMFAO and the rest are coming next year January 19-20 for a rave event. I'm not surprised if my spending on tickets alone combined is almost a thousand ringgit. 

I mean, since when I started to even spend on concerts? Maybe its just me knowing that it sucks to miss out so much fun before turning 21? Age crisis? LOL.

I think it started out when I was forced to give up my Future Music Festival Asia 2012 tickets due to the fact that I had to return to work on a fucking weekend. And from that night after coming home from work, I vowed not to miss any great concerts. Except for MTV World Stage, I didn't think it was worth it. Big Bang, wasn't really a hardcore fan so I thought I should save up for something else.

I woke up pretty damn early, like 10 a.m I was at The Guitar Store spending RM 600 on Swedish House Mafia party zone tickets. One for my friend, and one for my girl. Because I waited 2 years for them to come, and since it was their last tour before heading to Miami for the last stop, I am thankful that they decided to drop by Malaysia. THANK GOD!!!

So anyway, I've changed. My spending habits have changed, for better or for worse its up to you to decide. I worked my ass off for these tickets and also for any upcoming shows. I know what I'm spending on, I'm thinking of it as investments. All I need is to have myself a good time with music. That's it.

LOL WTF am I talking about :/

She's My Artist

As you know, I'm in a relationship with a talented artist. And so I head over to her place to chill, I went back home. Home is where I found my very own peace and what not. Its just, there.

 So I was just chillin' with the Mac on, every social site I'm on that. And there she is, all of the sudden lying next to me and with a black Sharpie pen, she started drawing on my outer arm. 

 Turns out to be a feather. 

And then I told her to surprise me with another 'tattoo'. And I had to patiently hold still my left arm as she started to draw out a koi fish based on a picture we found on Tumblr.

 Almost 40 minutes or so, its done.

 I was thinking, she'd be the only girl that without any experiences in tattooing, that I would allow to ink my first tattoo. I don't usually blog about my relationships, but I was actually fuckin' happy for the whole night.


 To y'all this wouldn't be the best looking koi fish design, mind you it was her first try and it turned out great.

Come next year, I know what would my first one be. Thanks Siang Er, I love you a lot :)

Urbanscapes - Day 1

Hey guys, I know its been months since I last blogged properly. The previous one was cause of guilt. But more on that when I'm done with work and all. Anyway I decided to attend this year's Urbanscapes event for once before I leave for Australia (that is if I get the acceptance letter from RMIT)

I took a day off from work for the first time since almost 3 months into working for Motorsport Playground. I bought the weekend passes through Jessica and Austin.

I didn't managed to attend the past 2 year's event is due to the fact that I didn't had enough time and money to even make it for Urbanscapes, but this year was an exception. I mean, for once in my boring young adult life, I would love to attend a festival like this.

So I met up with the buddies at Jaya One. Austin's in charge of getting in all the stuff for one of the international acts for this year's Urbanscapes, and Volkswagen was their official sponsor, and we got to sit inside a VW ride.

 This year's Urbanscapes is held at Padang Astaka, Petaling Jaya. The night before the event I visited Urbanscapes' website for their tips and advises, what to do when at Urbanscapes. I thought they were kidding me when they say its gonna be muddy. 

 Of course, the first stall we visited was The Bee's.

 They even have a school bus, how awesome is that man?!

 This is our shoes' conditions, 15 minutes onto Padang Astaka.

 I'm gonna be honest, I'm still pretty much new to the local music scene, and I haven't heard much news about Malaysian hip hop until I saw one of Egoistic Records' video for 'Run This', featuring some of Malaysia's talented rappers.

I really enjoyed their performances at The Next Stage, one of the few stages on the field. It was really energetic, nevermind the crowd compared to the later acts that will be featured at night.
 Special mentions goes to this guy named Kyren Thomas. The last song I heard from this fella was a song featuring Gorillaz's 'Tomorrow Comes Today' sample called 'A Stone Away'. Probably one of the most energetic performances. Bravo.

 Anyway, being an Urbanscapes virgin, I kinda liked think that RM 170 spent on a 2 day ticket was worth it. I liked how they focused on independent brands and food outlets.

 Hours into the event, shoes done fucked up.

There's nothing much to say about Urbanscapes 2012, so I'm going to leave you with some pictures I took this afternoon.


 Levi's tent








 You know that feeling, like when you were a kid and bubbles kinda amazes you. Shit, I'm 20 and I realized I stood infront of this fella blowing huge ass bubbles towards the crowd, for 30 minutes or so and it still amazes me. Its like some things in life still surprises you no matter what age you are.


 Anyway, its about damn time I hang out with these two nutcase. Jessica is leaving for her USA trip this Tuesday and I'm gonna have to wait till 28th of December to chill with her and the rest. One member of the clique missing and you know, it just doesn't work at all.










 Yeah, more bubbles.

 Damn dirty mud.

Anyway, we'll see how it goes for day 2 and also the final day for Urbanscapes 2012. Lapsap, Twilight  Action Girl, Sigur Ros, Sheila Majid will be performing. Gonna have a great time before heading to my final week of work at Motorsport Playground.

Sorry

I have this irregular heartbeat problem that came back to haunt me again. It happened a couple of weeks ago, the constant heart beating at a fast rate for the past 2 weeks is not easy to live by. I couldn't sleep, I could not rest well and I haven't tell my parents about it until tonight. I don't know what went wrong or why do I deserve this in the first place.


Work has been really tiring. I didn't get to spend much time with my friends, and I didn't get to spend much time with you, Siang Er. I'm so sorry, forgive me.
