Band K3 - 23rd Novermber 2005

It was in the late morning when Joe called me and said he wanna jam in the afternoon around 2.00pm. Being bored and lonely at home, like i usually am, i agreed lor. Called the Bassist and Patrick. Both agreed. Full band was summoned. Finally!! So i head to Subang picked John up, and then met Joe at Taylor's.

Me hungry, as usual...so Joe brought us to this coffee shop where they served good beef noodles. hmm.. yea, it tasted good. o_O

We then head over back to Taylor's and searched for a jamming place. We went to our usual place, it was CLOSED. Fine, so we went to one near Melur. It was CLOSED too, permanently.

In the end we went to this place nearby the WarNet kafe (also closed down; everything seems to be shutting down at the end of the year o_O). Finally got our long awaited chance to play some music.We played from around 3pm to 4.30pm. GG.

Jam w/ Band K3 - checked, GG.





SAM CORROBOREE 2005 - 23rd November 2005

Prom day came so fasT! it felt like i was just doing my ESL paper and then...it came, SAM Prom 2005. Time passes really, really fast.

After the jamming session i went home straight to get ready for the final gathering of SAM - The SAM Corroboree 2005.

It would be my second time there. I went there a year ago for last year's prom.

I went home, got ready, and head back to Taylor's. Yea, went up and down for the day o_O. But when i reached Taylor's i got something very unexpected that i've never anticipated due to all the rush...


A massive jam before Sunway Resort.

Traffic was moving super slow man, i nearly lost my cool. Hahz..but anyways i finally did make it to the venue.

Before this ChinLeong (proud owner of a Mitsubishi Evo8 and a Porsche 911 Carrera - WTFBBQ) already warned me about the oncoming jam and told me to called him and meet him at the lobby when i'm there.

I didn't o_O AHHAA....sorry ar. All the rush made me forget things.. eh..hehe...hehe.. :D

When i got there..i called John.

Me: John, where you ppl now?
John: We're all at the toilet.
Me: ............... wottt???
John: Yea, come meet us there.
Me: .......

Alright, that didn't sound right. Heck i still went to the toilet and look for them. and yea, they were ALL in there. John, Aaron, Billy, Jerry and Patrick were all adjusting their suit and so wtv...hahz U ALL LOOK HANDSOME DI LAARRR......haijor..Then not too soon Joe joined us at the bathroom -.-;

Finally when all is done, we headed for the ballroom. Had to register by the counter if you wanna head INTO the ballroom. That's why we're told to bring our ID cards..zZzZzZ

Even better was...Aaron successfully managed to smuggle Kirsty in!

SAM Corroboree - Only allows paying SAM ppl in.
Kirsty - A-Level's student.

So basically Kirsty can't get in unless she's prepared to fool the SAM lecturers to let her in.

Yep, she did it. A job well done to that :)

She manage to get it without even being suspected. GJ!

So, we got in. Went to our tables, sat down, and bla bla bla...
Talked, eat, took photos, ALOT of photos. Haha.. the first hour of the evening went on fine. After that everybody was just standing up, walking around doing their own stuff. There was even once where there was this violin duet performance, where everybody was still all standing doing their own stuff and then the emcee had to come up on stage and told everybody to sit down and respect the performers. AHAHA

Y'know wat, i didn't even knwo there was a violin duet performance o_O What was i doing ar? hmmm...

But i did notice the performance by our very own SAM lecturers! They had to perform an Indian song together w/ some Indian music as soon as the music starts. Whoa, the lecturer's were extremely sporting. They gave it all when they came upon the stage! That performance was really something. i was really awed by their enthusiasm to go on stage. hmm.. mebbe the teachers have their own..um...darker side? hmm......

After the dance there was a performance by S9 (Denny, Vincent and HengTeng) and a guitarist import from S5 (WheiJin). Their performance was one of the better ones. They played a song by Lifehouse.

From there on, i didn't really care what happened on the stage. The K3 ppl just did our own stuff, taking photos, eating, talking, totally ignoring whats going on up on the stage. Heck, i even dunno who was the prom King and Queen! Oh yea, prom Queen = Alison .ahah :)

Oh wait! i remembered the opening dance performance! it was by some girl by the name of Emily. Whoa, she can really sing man...i heard she went for some Malaysian Idol thingy. ahaha..after her performance everybody was invited into the dance floor to groove to the music. Well since i dun groove and move too well, i just went and sat at the table...PEI......zZzZz...oh yea, Joe pei-ed w/ me...zZzZzZzZz....
Well, time for the photos;
Enjoy :)

I'll post more photos when i get them. Stupid camera; button came off when i took it out o_O. So i didn't take any photos. Had to use other ppl's camera. Aisey...wasted...

After the event at around 12.00am+, we wennt hunting for a place to drink. We tried Starbucks @ Pyramid. Closed. We tried Coffee Bean. Closed. We tried this, that, all closed. In the end, we went to this Hello Kafe which was surprisingly still open. The price even surprised us more.

Apple Juice/Soft Drinks/Beer = 8 FRIGGIN' BUCKS wah gg liaw my wallet..

but at that point whjere we were all yearning for a drink, i couldn't care less bout the price man. i was freaking thirsty.

There was also this band in the Hello Kafe performing. I guess it was weird for them to see a bunch of ppl walk into a kafe at that hour all dressed up in suits and gowns coz they started playing a song for uS! chinese songs..that is. they were like (in chinese) "let's play a song for those young ppl all dressed up over there". Haha... i don't even know the title of the songs, but yea, they were good. Oh yea i remember one! Qing Tian by Jay CHou! ahaha and one more..some song wt a nice tune to it...hmmm..

at around 1.00am + we headed home. Dropped some friends home........and that's that. end of the day.

Overall the SAM prom was one heck of an event. A sure night to remember. It was an experience. Something i wouldn't forget :)
