Damn microsoft is screwing with my ports access. Either that or the router is acting up. *sigh*

National day parade yesterday was okie, very nice melodies for the acts again this year. But dunno why the composers kept sticking to techno/trance beats. o_O Even heard some raw midi drums.

Coverage glitches were amuising. First, the subtitles got lost, then during the kallang wave, the camera couldn't keep up with the wave! Hahahaha.

I think this year's parade commander is the first in a long time who could accentuate his engrish properly.

Kinda wish I was there in the stadium again. Remember the atmosphere, so saturated with music and patiotism. But that chanting thing is so communist-china-like. Then the guy playing the drums... I don't know why they even bothered makig his drums out of odd objects, since there was like no sound coming out from there but the speakers instead.

Was thinking what a challenge it would be to do music for the national day parade. All those traditional songs you'd have to learn to create original scores for, then the careful blend of genres so you don't lost the older generation yet maintain the interest of the younger generation. I dunno why they keep recycling tcaichovsky's blah blah blah overture every year for the fireworks, though.


Then came brothers 4. Its been such a long time since I've watched anything on tv, so I figured I'd give this show a go. Gurmit singh is hilarious. That scene where he was climbing down the pole, then realizes he's on the floor and jumps around doing his victory dance- that victory dance was so funny. And neo swee lin talking with her mouth full, and her posture- so natural. She always portrays motherly figures damn well. And that psychopathical girlfriend was damn funny too. Wahahaaha, that Kawaiiiii~ Melody Chen was acting! And tay ping hui very buaia indeed. All in all I think all of them got into their characters very well, that new guy too, forgot his name.


Okay, got to fix router again....
