clay aiken returns... & welcome back, fizzy!! 



yep that's rite.. clay aiken's new album, measure of man, will be out on october 14th, almost a whole month before ruben studdard's album, soulful. seems that clay's was finished earlier and thus, ruben, being the nice person he is, gave clay the green light to release his first.. so exciting~! hehehe

anyway, rca records have confirmed that his new single wud be a track entitled invisible, which is actually a remake of an old damage song. however, it sounds a whole lot different from the way i expected a "clay" song to be but the disparity in style should not detract you from THAT voice. indeed, the sheer power & purity of his trademark vocals is still as distinct as ever. being an avid claymaniac myself, i must say i'm a leetle bit disappointed wif this single.. it's an uptempo track, not anything too maudlin or mushy yet i didnt get any vibes when i first heard it off the net. (on the other hand, clay's solitaire & somewhere out there, performed live during AI, still manage to give me the shivers when i listen to them..) nevertheless, i am looking forward to clay's new album which indubitably wud contain a rich store of other vocal treasures for me to sample & savor to my heart's content. ;)definitely, i give clayton holmes aiken two thumbs up for his enthusiastic effort to break into the "pop" niche. (btw, his bday is on nov 30th, 1978 which makes him a saggi like me ;p )

oh yeah, i'm not as crazy over clay as i used to be but i still get agitated when pple criticize him unreasonably over his funny looks, monotonous delivery etc. therefore, i shall not tolerate anyone who plan to diss him by leaving nasty comments on my tagboard. . . so critics, u've been warned! ;O

anyhow, clay aiken isnt the only bloke making a comeback. fizzy vampy baby is OUT! woohoo~! he juz completed his ten-day confinement at PA and thus, will probably meet him sumtime over the weekend.. wonder if he has changed...?? hmmm.. whatever the case, i'm certain he will be bursting wif NS stories to share wif us and i cant wait to listen to his mellifluous singing again :) [bytheway, i've a penchant for good voices and pple who can sing is a turn-on~.. this shud be an adequate explaination fer my indecent passion fer clayaiken, mariah carey, xtina aguilera, my ex, etc etc... LOL ]

actually, i have sumthing really embarrassing to confess. i think i've mixed up my contacts again! muahahaha. though my left and right eye have only a difference of 25degrees, this slight disparity can sumtimes cause me such incredible discomfort & distress when i actually put them on all wrong. however, a 25degress difference is rather difficult to detect.. or maybe i havent mixed them up afterall.. Maybe i'm feeling headachy and it's all just the remnants of the symptoms of my flu. i was having headaches to whole of yesterday afterall... ARGH~ i cant decide which!

How Evil Are You Really?

this is a terribe quiz i think. each question has four options but only one out of those four can be considered decent.. the other three options border upon sheer lunacy.. two thumbs down!! ;p

however, am pretty satisfied wif my blog.(*gives self a pat on back) finally, i've achieved the "look" and "feel" which i've envisioned in my mind eversince a couple of weeks ago.. NO, i'm not content wif juz downloading a skin off blogskins.com (though they've got some nifty skins back there..) and passing it off as mine.. i want my own Identity.. my own sense of individuality. i want my blog to be a personification of some part of me.. a part which pple can identify wif and not feel alienated against. to what extent i've achieved wat i've aspired to accomplish, i am far from qualified to say.. but i DO know however, that i'm content. at least, fer now.. muahahahaa

i've got the sniffles!!! 

juz watched the first twenty minutes of the new Bachelor season yet already, i'm feeling sorry fer the poor gerls.. amongst the 25 "bachelorettes" feautured, one was definitely asian (she looked like a common china gerl) and only one looked as if she's an afro-american mix. i dont think either one of them stands a chance of getting to the next round. however, pretty boy andrew firestone may prove me wrong yet! then again, i'm not gonna get glued to the screen to see the outcome of tonight's show.. this show is juz too cruel!! guess ill leave that job to my mother~ LOL

woke up from a drug-induced sleep this morning to find that it's raining outside.. and it rained and rained til early evening i think. wat a marvellous day to spend at home juz being yr most lazy and indolent self! haha... and that's wat i precisely did but i havent got much of a choice anyway since i'm not exactly in the pink of health right now. last night, i had such a bad case of nasal congestion that i was afraid i wud juz asphyxiate myself to death cuz of insufficient ventilation to my lungs.. ;p But i didnt (how unfortunate).. two chlorpheniramine tablets were enuff to knock me out til morning despite my stuck nose. so i spent most of today in a mindless stupor, sucking on lozenges while working on my blog.. (btw, i've included a poetry section under my "personal links" section~ check it out if u've got the time..)

i finally returned my convo gown (but some call it "academic dress".. go figure!) yesterday afternoon after letting it collect dust in the corner for a couple of months. promised to meet timothy at clementi interchange at 3pm but i only arrived halfhour later... so wat's new, rite? (well, punctuality has never been part of my charm anyway. LOL ) he certainly hasnt changed much. kinda saddened to know that he's just lost his part time job but kinda relieved too that i've found one more disgruntled soul to identify wif... hehe. anyhow, after we returned our stuff & got our deposits back (which i totally forgot to bank in today) we had our late lunches in the arts fac canteen. actually, our respective faculty canteens have their own incredibly posh names (such as the Deck, the Terrace, Frontier.. etc) since last year but we never refer to them by those ludicrous monickers~ they're juz too much of a mouthful fer sumthing so ordinary & conventional! haha. but.. *sigh.. i miss the affordably-priced yet reasonably-tasteful nus food. i remember the days when i'd travel all the way to the bizad canteen juz to have decent mly food... (it's a good twenty minute trip to get there frm my fac) ARGh~! life as a student is certainly waaaaayy better than life as Watever right now!

erm.. well... anyway, forgot to mention wat i did on monday; was chillin out wif damien & tony at BB wif a couple of my other cronies.. THAT hadnt happened before! i concede that it was pretty awkward initially, (i was downright agitated)but nonetheless, all my fears were allayed later on as we had a pleasant time juz chattin away about old times & experiences.. ahaha. glad to see damien smiling again. i didnt think he wud after his mum passed away a fortnight ago. i guess, as the sondheim song goes, time heals evrything...

have very much resolved not to wallow in despair and contrition anymore than i have to. i think i did more than enuff of that yesterday when timothy & i lamented & reminisced about all our erroneous choices in our study modules. we figured that bad company & negative influences have enticed us away frm the path toward glorious academic achievement. LOL i've always had a love-hate relationship wif school.. on the one hand, i miss the hours spent in lectures, surrounded by good company but those abhorrent late nights slaving away at meaningless assignments are best forgotten!

oh yeah.. i promised to check up on juliet the orange...
they're female duo frm m'sia whose music dont really fit any distinct genre. however, i'd say that they ooze a certain folk-ish charm & angst very reminiscent of jewel & tori amos after listening to just two of their songs. (Quizzical & the days) they even garnered 10 AIM (anugerah industri muzik) nominations in 2000 which was certainly quite a mean feat.. well anyway, both are now pursuing their law degrees hence no new albums as yet.. ;)

flu 

my apologies to all for not blogging earlier... and also to those who had to tolerate the changes in my blog template for the last couple of days~ ;p

was a spectator at the suntec dance competition last saturday.. there were a couple of my acquaintances participating but it was too bad that they didnt walk away wif any of the top prizes. nevertheless, i think they were pretty good.. hmmm.. have u ever watched a spectacular performance and felt yr goosebumps rise? i'm like that.. and i did get the goosebumps while watching some of the dancers performing.. they were So good! damn! i almost wish i was born wif such a good sense of rhythm and dexterous coordination of my four limbs.. *bleargh* then maybe i cud show-off sum flashy dance moves in da club next time~ LOL

anyway, after that, me & my mates dropped by lau pa sat fer a sumptuous dinner-cum-supper~ (i have a certain weakness for mutton satay.. (makes my knees feel like jelly and my mouth water juz thinkin abt it. hehe) was so bloated wif food after that. Quite a miracle that i didnt puke on my way back home.

however, had an irritating sorethroat the next day. must be adverse side-effect of all that gorging on saturday. then it deteriorated to a slight cough... and then today.. presto~ i've got the flu. while it may not be SARS (or anywhere near such a diagnosis) i think this flubug is wearing me abit thin. cant seem to be thinking straight and my movements are abit sluggish. but then, THAT cud be the after-effects of the flu tablet i am taking. thankgod fer that little, yellow pill called piriton aka chlorpheniramine. hallelujah! (be warned, drug may cause drowsiness.. avoid driving or operating heavy machienery!;p )

cant wait fer anugerah later~!
