within the span of the last month i have managed to popularise hey ya (the funny outkast song - shake it! shake it like a polaroid picture!) and the term mental masturbation, which didn't come from me at all. it's from placebo. hurray for me.
another magical night happened again. clubbing in the bunk. nah, it was more like sitting around on green chairs waving cyalume sticks in the air shouting 'must be the money' and 'what's cooler than being cool? ICE COLD!'

also watched the golden globes live. rather boring. could also be known as everybody loves sofia. uma looked lovely but did not win. nicole looked lovely too. tom cruise did not win. as for the golden boy,..

nah johnny depp won't win best actor. even though he seems to be the favorite among yahoo users. he hasn't got enough wrinkles on him et. lotr will win many oscars. but i'm actually rooting for city of god. i've seen some of it yesterday and it is exotic and funny. and lost in translation is surprisingly, PG, considering the posters and previous ads rated it ra. it's a tough fight for best actress. i haven't seen all 5 films and i dunno how good they are. but voters won't be able to resist an ugly transformation. but the reallly big surprise is the failure of miramax's campaigning machine to get a nod for best picture and best actress. the studio has, after all, propelled shakespeare in love and chicago to the fore against all odds.

i am reading neal stephenson's quicksilver. it's rather deep but so far so good. he makes isaac newton sound like a wuss. when i finish reading it i will write a short story.

i passed the basic theory test. so what's the next step huh? it's just real inconvenient to go down to bukit gombak again.

i'm gonna draw a list of musical influences over the years. it will be colourful.
