Was listening to No Doubt on the way home, and thinking about how May and Amy were having a quiet laugh about me forgetting about my wallet at B&Js. No Doubt is one of the more "girl power" bands, although the only woman is the front woman, cause the lyrics are written for Gwen. Anyway, girls you all show go listen to it, they have nice tunes and very funky bass lines. This reminds me of a friend who was criticising radio friendly music. What the f*cks wrong with radio friendly music? Too common? Not cool enough for you? Hell, there are no boundries in music. And, its definitely not easy to write them too. ANYWAY, came across this song "Running". Somehow, the lyrics were speaking of a possible breakdown and the need to stand up and keep running. The keyboards were playing some very "adolescent-innocent" kinda tune. Very mentally disturbing song. It just penetrates your mind. Very sad too, very melancholic. Just go listen. Btw, people, go check out their "Rock Steady" concert DVD, it totally rocks. Great rock show they did while promoting that album. And for people curious about this other guy besides Travis Barker who's promoting Zildjian drumsticks and bags, its the No Doubt drummer - Adrian Young. No Doubt has much more great music.
May's mum's office is very. Weird. Cause there was this security guard who just barged right in without even knocking and stuff. And anyone could sign documents which needed signing, as long as you have the company's stamp, which could be easily found in some unlocked drawer. And they have like 5 desks although only 2 people work in the office. Anyway, B Ng, Weiming, Amy and I decided to pull a prank on our dear May while we were eating our lunch. So I graciously copied the Korean accent and language which my father uses daily to call his Korean clients.
(The following conversation is not totally accurate or correct on the korean language part, but please bear with me and just try to imagine.)
May: ***met, Good Afternoon (very unenthusastically) Deon: Yobisoh, yobisoh? (Korean accent) May: Hello?? Deon: Yobisoh? ***sar ***sar, kansamida (or something like tt) May: What?? Hello? Hello? Who's this?? (panicking) Deon: Er, Hello? I would like to order 2 tonnes of metal from you. (Korean accent) May: What?! Oh sorry, Joyce is not in, can I take a message? (relieved) Deon: Huh? How come? Joyce is not in? (Korean accent), but do you know who is this? its Deon. Muaha. (Normal accent, i.e. Singlish) May: What the..? Go and DIE LAH! *click*
