Army, here we come.

Guys, lets all stay safe and have fun.

That’s all I pray for.

 

Jarren’s songs of 2008.

Here’s a tribute to a big part of my life.

Hiphopopotpmus VS. Rhymenocerous – Flight of the Conchords
Probably up there for funniest shit EVAH. The show is incredibly entertaining too. Its a pity I won’t have time in the near future to finish it.

Oxford Comma – Vampire Weekend
Everyone loves vampire weekend. nuff said.

Rise – The Frames
Glen Hansard is probably the most beautiful Irish brute out there. Some songs take your breath away, and in that spirit of lethalness, Rise is a weapon of mass destruction.

Girl I Wanna Lay You Down - Jack Johnson and Zach Gill
I’m a sucker for tacky dirty lyrics. Any song with a peanut butter analogy deserves your precious attention. Got the album, Some Live Songs, at a gramophone sales for about 8 bucks.

Womanizer – Britney Spears
This is the shitz for 08. And although i don’t approve of anything britney does with her life, this has got to be the one thing she did right this year.

You & I – Ingrid Michaelson
Did I mention how incredibly hooked to blatant lyrics of the great deed I am? Ingrid adds sugar, spice and everything nice to make this track pure sweetness.

5 Years time – Noah and the Whale
I really really love this band. I’m so glad I bought the album. It’s also worth it to check out the video for shape of my heart, although i have to admit few will share my enthusiasm for it. Go El Corazon!! hahaha.

Ok so there you have it. Where The Light Is also deserves a mention. Havn’t been blogging much but maybe with a new rad army lifestyle will kickstart a revival. Alas, it’s too soon to say. MERRY CHRISTMAS/CHANUKAH/FESTIVE SEASON PEOPLE!

 

woahwoahwoah

Hey hey its been awhile. Life’s been great so here’s a few little trinkets i found to make yours great too.

This performance by Feist is freaking beautiful. You know you’ve done good when you’re asked to do a song on Sesame street.

And to not seem contrived at all, that took some kickass-awesomeness.

And who said the french weren’t crazy? Packed with awesome scenery, sheer audacity and a generous dose of skill, what’s not to love? Heck, any football video with ACDC music is worth mentioning.

Till next time.

 

My children, be joyful.

Its the weekend before the big handover. The official “thanks for everything”, the big kick in the arse telling us to start mugging. I could continue but I’ll leave the rest till Monday.

Musicfest 08 was way queer in terms of results. And for 12 bucks, they could have done something about stage decor, a little bare don’t you think? But other than that, it was a pretty good show. Good job S34 dancers, Hello Panda, Enigmanic, Paper Pavement. Runner-ups FTW! That was hugely ironic haha.

Been amusing myself with transformer episodes on youtube. But those are not the real gem. This is freaking hillarious.

Jackie the carebear: “That’s why we should not play with any birds RIGHT NOW! (frownie face and dramatic pause) Especially if they look sick, GOT IT!?!
Kids: “YES!”

 

This old man.

I’m eighteen. I’m an A level taking student. I’m stepping down in 2 weeks. I’m part of the team. I’m their son. I’m saved because He died and rose again.

Sometimes I tend to forget. But most of the time, I’m finding bliss in ignorance.

 

Arsenal 2 – AC Milan 0

 

tumble thoughts.

We need to devise a way to convert stress into a form of energy. I think that’ll be cool. Especially if aircons ran on them. hurhur.

 

Dude, get me a fly.

I just realised that during the reformatting not long ago, i lost a good portion of my Bishop Allen songs. That includes FLIGHT 180!!!

So if any kind soul out there has it, please please please send me. In fact, any Bishop Allen song will be deeply appreciated. It’s time you do something useful with your bandwith and mend this broken man. hahaha.

some of the lights below
shine directly on the people I know
their lives take such strange shapes
but how together they appear from above
I guess that could be love
my friends
my friends
I’m coming home

and then the captain speaks
it’s clear and 44 degrees
but I know he means-
‘if you feel like dancing
dance with me’

 

Wing it.

And so the new year’s a week in and I already feel jaded with it. Sea sports carnival came and went, Thank God for the awesome kickass weather. Valour OGLs have been insane company too, we had some great times. And S34 (TREE will FALL!), i couldn’t have asked for a better class.

At this point of time, decisions haunt, but i guess we are never meant to know if we’re doing the right thing. We know who holds tomorrow.

It’s PE and GP tomorrow. The 2 things that break the mundanity of school should not be put on the same day la. In any case, lets pray Mr.Tan is in an awesome mood. haha, and it will be interesting to see how he reacts should there be a lightning risk… xD
