Stitch by sticth, lust for lust....

Take me out, tonight,
Because I want to see people and I want to see light.
Driving in your car, oh please don't drop me home,
Because it's not my home, it's their home and I'm worth no more.

This stanza from The Smiths' There Is A Light That Never Goes Out has been subconciously mumbled by me repeatedly. Got to hand it to Morissey for writing such hopeless lyric.

This is it. Weekend. What more could I do than just killing time waiting for another turbulent week to finally come around in two days time? Well maybe there's an exception this weekend since the Family Tag's on Sunday. By the by, Seven Collar T-Shirt's interview went on swell 'till the wee hours of the morning. Luckily MGT was cancelled (Get well soon En. Hud. We miss you) so I could basically stay up 'till 4 a.m. just so I could listen to the studio yet un-mastered version of "The Summary". When these guys perform their new songs live, they sounded too good to be true. But listening to "The Boo Hoo Rah Theory" and "The Summary" on radio, they sounded proficiently raw. Meaning, the much-anticipated studio engineered lush isn't there but it offers something different. Something pristine. Yeah, they do sound pristine on record. Duan's vocal sounds quite far apart from Freeway, Dreaming & Broke and even his live delivery of the new songs. But this is said judging by the un-mastered version, mind you. Let's wait for the final product. Asked them a couple of questions via text. Even got one for Jeff, their producer and engineer. My guts were proven right. Ham texted me saying Question power ha. Heh. Me being my kiddie self. Always full of curiosity.

Thanks a zillion Boy! Thanks to you my Lappie's hard drive is at the lowest minimum space available. 4 Gigs! But since my MP3 and video collection has expanded massively, I ain't complaining. No, I did'nt. Did I?

Again, thanks to Boy for all of the mentioned additions above. I'm currently high on Denali. They're the best thing to me since My Vitriol. Has a pretty lass as a singer. Mogwai's collabo with Gruff Rhys from Super Furry Animals (By the way, he was credited to have written the song. Not Mogwai), "Dial: Revenge" is pretty slow-pace, intensively dramatic. No wonder DDA was once being compared to them. I don't know why but when it comes to referring to a post-rock band as a refference, I'll only refer to Mogwai if they're the last musical collective in the whole universe. Sounds drastic ain't it? I just don't know why.

Since MGT was cancelled today, there's only BEL in my way for another Bote weekend. Post-Friday prayer, went straight away to the comp. lab in Ye Ol' FSPU for labbing but only to find it's not open for the evening. Bumped into Adam & Zhaf on my way to the very unreliable faculty comp. lab. Closed too. Shit. Lastly we opted for the library's crappy PC infested comp. lab. After spending a solid 2 hours, I left the building. It rained. I was feeling restless. I have to do something.

"Maybe walking in the rain would'nt be a bad idea."

It was'nt. It felt great. Even took a few snaps around campus. I love it when it rains. The scenery is simply stunning. With dark clouds lingering in the sky, it tends to enhance the backdrop view making it the best time ever to capture a moment. Now I know why I did the walking. I was feeling empty. Again. Nowadays snapping pictures seems to be a form of relaxation to me. And I often take photos of dark, slightly 'moody' clouds leaving a bit of the bottom space of the picture for anything else below it to create a contrast. An ironic statement. Hey yeah, I've been self-loathing too much these days. As Corey said it, "Fuck me! I'm all out of enemies!, Fuck me! I'm all out of enemas!"

End. Be nice and happy hunting everyone.

I need you. Whomever you may be. I need you-
