Losing my voice screaming for my idol is priceless

Good friday IS really good.
Last friday I went to The Script Concert in Singapore.
I already bought the ticket since last November.
I got the seat at the second row behind the standing fans.
I bought a seated ticket because I don't want to be squeezed in between the standing crowd. 
Turned out I was standing all the time too. 
I've never been to a concert before, at first I was like should I go or shouldn't I.
I'm glad I did.
Until now I do not know all of their songs.
Yes I do love some of their hit single.
In fact I google the band members' name at the morning before the concert started.
The concert was PERFECT.
The opening act was Shirlyn and the unXpected, local musicians.
They sang about 5 or 6 songs.
My favorite are we could be, thunder, and window.
After 30 minutes of performance the fans were ready for the main star.
I was screaming throughout the whole concert and singing along to the songs that I knew.
Mark said that the fans are  fucking  amazing and Danny said that we have a beautiful voices.
My favorite part of the concert was when Mark told us the story of Danny got drunk and did some drunk-texting, drunk-calling, drunk-tweeting which inspire nothing.
Then Danny told us to do something inappropriate, taking our phone and calling our ex.
He took one of the fans' cellphone and started singing nothing.

found this from youtube :D

I did take some pictures from my Blackberry and iPod.
Their live performance were amazing.
They sang for about 1 hour and 20 minutes.
The setlist are good ol'days, we cry, breakeven, science and faith, the man who can't be moved, if you could see me now, before the worst, if you ever come back, talk you down, nothing, I'm yours, six degrees of separation, for the first time.
They said good night after singing for the first time and the fans kept on singing the line, oh these times are hard, yeah, they're making us crazy, don't give up on me baby.
They came out again for an encore and sang two more songs, you won't feel a thing, hall of fame
I was having a great time!
Now I am totally addicted to the script.
I listen to their songs all day long and it reminds me of the concert.
I just bought their latest album #3.
So much love for the script <3

On My Mind

Peace is a state of mind

It's a choice

Courage, where have you been?

I've been doing nothing

no actions equal no results

Nothing to Do

You are never too old to act silly.

Writing and making documentaries on this blog has been a pleasant journey.
I can re-read them over and over again.
Smiling and laughing on the things that I've written.
I write according to what I feel at that time.
What I think is right at that moment.
I can write about something and find myself see it from a different point of view on the next day.
Yeah, people do change their mind every day.

The Last Three Days

Saturday

When a friend of mine told me that Awin is in town, I was so surprised. I was kinda sad because he didn't tell me that he is back. We haven't chat for quite a while. I was still expecting that he would text me and I was too stubborn to text him first. But then he texted me. I was so happy, because I was waiting for it. We had dinner with some of our friends. And then the most awkward moment happened. On our way home, when it was just the two of us, we kept silence. I felt very uncomfortable. A lot of things were running through my mind. I was thinking what should I say and yet I still kept quiet. Until he felt asleep while driving and hit the car in front of us. After that we did talk about the accident. He got home and we did chat for a while. The feeling of meeting him again after all the things that has happened between us is unexplainable. 

Sunday

We did hang out again. We had dinner and karaoke until 11 pm. When I was driving home, he texted me and tell me to inform him when I get home. There he goes, bringing back the feeling that was once there. I feel special because of his little attention. None of my friend are doing it. They would just say be careful and never really text me to make sure that I get home safely. Even if they did, I'm sure the effect won't be the same. While we chat he asked will I be free on Monday. We made a plan to watch movie in the afternoon. He rarely went to the cinema at Jakarta. All of our friend are working in the afternoon, so his only choice is me.

Monday

Awin told me that he will be free after lunch for our movie date. After lunch time, he couldn't make it, and will only be free at night. There are four of us who will watch oz. Me and Awin were buying the ticket first, because our friends would come a little bit late. We had dinner, and I'm glad it went well. I mean it wasn't as awkward like the first time we met. So he did it again, after I drop him home, he texted me again. As usual. Oh I love getting that kind of attention.

Today

Awin is going back to Jakarta. I'm gonna miss spending time with him. There are still a lot of questions that I want to ask but I didn't have the courage to ask. I believe it won't change our situation though. But then I am happy. I am feeling it again. I keep smiling when we chat. Even my mom is noticing it. I just can't hide it. This time is different. I do not expect much as I did before. I am less aggressive. I am waiting for Awin to come here again and see what will happen between us. If only ...

Third Attempt

According to Wikipedia, third time is the charm. It refers to the superstition that after two failures in any endeavor, a third attempt is more likely to succeed. Should I.

A Personality Test

The impression of you that I get is that you are a sensitive person but are often wary of expressing your true thoughts and emotions. I feel that you have been hurt in the past and this may be the reason for your caution – however, once you allow people to become a part of your life, i.e. by confiding in them or accepting their help or advice, you find it easier to develop a sense of trust and affinity.

There is something from your childhood which you are especially sensitive about – I’m not sure exactly what this is but I do know that it would take a very special person for you to confide this secret to. If this issue hasn’t yet been resolved then you may feel a little ashamed of whatever this was but one message that comes through to me is that it was not your fault.

You have always tried your best in most of the things that you’ve done. You realize that you could have done better at times with certain projects but your interest simply wasn’t there. You find it easy to concentrate on things that really interest you, but if someone tries to make you study a subject or project that you don’t want to learn about then you tend to ‘phase out’. 

There was an artistic or musical interest that you had when you were younger that you could have developed but didn’t. It may be that there were too many other things going on in your life at the time – or that it simply wasn’t the right time for you – I feel that you will probably go back to that interest at some time in the future and excel at it. 

You lost someone very special in your past and this left you with a sense of loneliness or abandonment. You still miss this person but I figure you are now coming to terms with that loss. In a way it made you appreciate loved ones more; however you don’t always show your true feelings.

You find the opposite sex intriguing. Sometimes you hate them, sometimes you love them. Your emotions seem to swing from high to low and back again. You would like to be the centre of attention at times – however most of the time you are happy to watch and observe. You don’t like making a fool of yourself and you certainly wouldn’t enjoy seeing your best friend or someone you really care about making a fool of themselves.

You have an overwhelming protective instinct. If someone you love annoys you then you will tell them so. If an outsider insults them then you instinctively jump to their defensive. It’s as though ‘It’s alright for you to say that, but not for them to’. 

You have certain colours that you like and will wear them depending on your mood. You are also sensitive to smell – you have favourite aromas – and some memories that are associated to them – e.g. bonfire night or your mother’s favourite perfume or shampoo – or perhaps a favourite dish – roast beef – curry – chicken or steak or perhaps even a tomato based recipe. 

You are idealistic about the person you would like to eventually settle down with (if indeed you have not already met that person). You really want your relationship to work out and will do your utmost to make things work. However if your partnership is wrong then you have no hesitation in not making this effort. You want to be happy in life. You hate hurting people and if this inadvertently does happen then you feel that hurt yourself. You are happy with your morals but would love to improve yourself in some way. 

At the moment you are in some sort of quandary about the direction your life is taking you and there are decisions to be made. Making decisions is not always easy for you – you like to weigh up the options in your mind and find yourself swayed by outside distractions. In this area you should always trust your instinct.

Life is not always easy for you – often you meet obstacles just as you think you are reaching your goal. These setbacks can make you feel unsettled or even depressed at times but you have a knack of being able to bounce back. When you look back on your life at some of the difficult times you realize that they seemed a lot worse at the time than they actually were. You are a survivor and are guided by hope and optimism. 

Money can be an issue for you and you should learn to manage it more effectively. Although you have to rely on outside sources at times you would prefer to be totally independent in this area. You dislike chaos and would be happier in a well organized environment but it seems that there is never enough time to carry out your well meaning intentions. 

Some time ago there was a disastrous relationship that knocked your confidence somewhat. Although you are over that now, there are still times when you feel vulnerable and insecure. You want to be loved for who you are, not how others want you to be and you generally try to please most of the time – however under extreme provocation you find it impossible to bottle up your feelings and minor explosions can occur. 

You enjoy travelling but something seems to be holding you back from being able to visit all the places you’d like to go. This could be money or other commitments or simply something within yourself that you have not yet acknowledged. 

Children, or one in particular, will play an important part of your life and you will derive a great deal of pleasure from helping him or her. You will also find yourself re-thinking a lot of your original ideas as your experience and maturity grow.

In order to overcome this tendency you should learn to communicate more freely in the early stages of an impending crisis.

Enjoya
