And once again, the sound of gates opening.

Egon was found the next day thanks to Bids. She went to ask the guys downstairs and apparently Egon jumped down and was hiding underneath the roof of the 2nd floor apartment. Also thanks to Bids I've got a brand new PSP!!! Games galore! Though I have to wait for v3.11 to be decrypted before I can go all pirate. heh

The chips I left on my table were gathering ants, BUT is still crunchy. Hmmm....

Darn bank, took $20 from me cos my account went into negative cos they took money from me to pay for the annual fee of the Debit Card. I should so cancel it cos I dun even use the Debit card as a Debit card. Grrr....$20 can go a long way man!!!!!

Egon is missing :(

Fucking tired man. I just wanna give it all up. Maybe I should.

Pearl Jam!!! Argh!!!

Drop the Leash! We are Young! Get out of my fucking face!

I miss the old Tiramisu. I guess everyone is too busy and caught up with their own stuff that rock is as rolling as it used to be before. Everything's so corporate now. the spirit of indie is slowly dying. Sigh.

Here we go!!!!!

Maybe I should start blogging again. Nah....not yet. Too lazy. LAAAY ZZZZZ!

Hi guys, I have 2 iPods for sale. Reason selling is cause since I started riding, I don't listen to mp3s anymore.

Literati III

Words and language have long been used as mediums of expression, standing alone in stanza and prose or collaborating with music and visuals to affect both sense and mind. Yet in this fast paced world, the meaning of words gets lost and become empty in a contextual void which exists in day to day conversation, and that is what Literati hopes to remedy by placing the spotlight on the word and it's power to move you.

Context will be the highlight of this event, in which we will line up wordsmiths from different avenues in one intimate performance of poetry, story and song. We hope that through this showcase, we may be able to demonstrate the indomitable presence of words not simply by its existence in our mundane exchange of information, but in forms which are profound and stirring.

This round of Literati will present Dominic Ng, Ruby Pan, Teng Qian Xi, Russell Tan, Donald Pan of Nuance and Amanda Tee.

Teng Qian Xi

She was the publicist for the recent cinema release of Singapore GaGa, directed by Tan Pin Pin. She will be returning next year to Columbia University to finish her degree in comparative literature.

Amanda Tee
She may be only 17 years of age - but with a couple of years' experience, she will not disappoint. In her songs, she makes it a point to find a comfortable compromise between the realms of words and melody. After all, they can very much compliment each other. Her songs aren't perfect, but she tries. So don't miss your chance to catch her belting out songs that can take on a more emotional expression. 'If music be the food of love, play on!'

Donald Pan of Nuance
Donald Pan is a member of Nuance. An intelligent song-writer, his evocative and smoothly crafted lyrics flow like poetry, equally matched by beautifully haunting tunes. Nuance’s music is hopeful and optimistic, with acerbic and premonitory undertones. Exploring current affairs and testament inspired messages, their music is fodder for philosophical discoursers and inspires travel to utopian faraway lands. Literati will be Donald’s first solo performance.
