Top One KTV – a good place for singers wannabe

Last Tuesday, went Top One KTV with Claris. I think it is not a really bad place to sing. Top One KTV is located opposite Toast Box of Bugis. When we reached Top One, there was a long queue and the time was only 1045am. We managed to get a room at the third floor which I think the theme is club?

Top One is 7 storey-high and each level has different theme. Take a look at some of the interiors of the rooms. Aint they cool? Why I think Top One KTV is a good place for singer-wannabe was because it cost only $16 for a 7 hours session. You can sing until mad. But luckily, I didnt go crazy. 7 hours for both Claris and I was still not enough. If the system did not automatic cut off at 6pm, we would still be singing. Besides this long hours singing, we have free flow of drinks. You can only choose a selection of drinks such as : Iced Orange, Iced Apple, Iced Grape, Iced Lychee, Iced Mango, Iced Green Tea. I ordered Iced Mango for my first drink since it’s my favourite fruit! In total, I had 4 big glasses of water.

Being a member of Top One Ktv entitles each of us to have a slice of either Kaya Toast or Peanut Butter Toast.

The missing piece of Kaya Toast was already in my mouth since I was super hungry that time, and could not wait until the photographs were taken.

The Peanut Butter Toast

Very soon, I will be going back to TopOne again! I cant wait to sing again. Please listen to the clip for a short snippets of one of our recording. TopOne also provide Voice Recording Service.

Bar Stop

If you enjoy live jazz band, Bar Stop is a good place for you to hang out after work. Nestled in its own little enclave along Devonshire Road, Bar stop is the perfect getaway from the hassle of the city. You can either choose to stay indoor or go the al fresco style.

On Wednesday, we had a night out with David and Nigel who came all the way down from UK office. Enjoying the night “breeze” with the music playing, I had my Mango Magarita.

The place was windy as 3 giant fans were hanging on the wall. The whole place looks like a well-kept “forest” with the forest-like decorations around the bar house. You may even missed this place when you are walking along Devonshire Road at night. For the whole night, we had live music from the two band – Acoustic Trip and Feri’s Quartet.

Live Performance of 一个人生活

一个人生活 – 林凡
Recorded on 23 September 08

叶子在窗外轻轻摇动
人行道没有行人走过
镜子里的我很不像我
自从你离开了我变得很软弱
你的影子在每一个角落
好像是在提醒着我
少了你的陪伴我现在有多寂寞
我想我可以习惯一个人生活
我想我可以假装不曾爱过
冰凉的夜里让眼泪温热我
我想我可以习惯一个人生活
在记忆里面擦去你的承诺
爱你怎么会是这个结果
叶子在窗外轻轻摇动
人行道没有行人走过
镜子里的我很不像我
自从你离开了我变得很软弱
你的影子在每一个角落
好像是在提醒着我
少了你的陪伴我现在有多寂寞
我想我可以习惯一个人生活
我想我可以假装不曾爱过
感觉如果要走谁能说no
我想我可以习惯一个人生活
在记忆里面擦去你的承诺
爱情是个梦而我睡过头

[Version8] The Sheepish Sheep

Another of my wonderful works. Proudly present you my eighth wordpress design – The Sheepish Sheep.

Why “Sheepish Sheep“?

On 19 September, I got my official shepherd – Li Ping. So I am the sheep. And also, I find sheep is very cute. I have a nickname as “Meh Meh” when I was in secondary school. It was because when I was in seconday two, I called my maths teacher “Ma’am” but it sounded like “meh”.

This wordpress design was first modified from the wordpress theme “Lost” by Claire of http://ilabyu.net. The wordpress theme looks like this:

Did major changes to the background picture, the style spreadsheet etc. These are some of the major changes I’m highlighting.

1. Background picture – The sheep is designed from scratch. I learned it from the online tutorial.First, I used the gradient function for the sky and used blue color scheme. Added in the clouds, the sun with sun rays, green hills with grass patches, rainbow path to the skies.
2. Comment Box Styling. I’ve changed the comment.php file by adding in sheepish sheep in the background. If you hover your mouse to the comment box, the comment box color changes. Before you hover, it is like this:(Before)
   

   (After)
   

3. The header picture for the comment

NOTE: THIS WORDPRESS THEME, THE SHEEPISH SHEEP IS BEST VIEWED ON INTERNET EXPLORER 7. DISTORTION COULD HAPPEN IF YOU ARE USING FIREFOX TO VIEW.

Singing Performance [7]: Bu Yao Dui Wo Zai Shuo Ai

翻唱- 不要對我再說愛 (林凡)
Recorded 17 September 2008

太多愛不明不白
我還在　分手的那一天原地徘徊
太多事不明不白
不明白　怎麼笑著走出來

不要對我再說愛
你回來　可是過去再也回不來
不要對我再說愛
我還在　鞦韆上搖擺

太多人不明不白
我不想　重新開始　還想著原來
太多人不必等待
我不能　給你確定的未來

不要對我再說愛
你回來　可是過去回不來
不要對我再說愛
我還在　鞦韆上來回搖擺

不要對我再說愛
我坦白　一直忘不了原來
不要對我再說愛
我害怕　我們再受到傷害

不要對我再說愛
你回來　可是過去回不來
不要對我再說愛就讓我
一個人靜靜搖擺

一段愛從不明白　到明白
我的眼淚才慢慢流出來

Unbearable Pain

Yesterday evening was quite a roller-coaster day for me. I experienced happiness, sadness, angriness,  irritativeness and painfulness. I dont think anyone would experience what Im experiencing now. 

Emotion of sadness
It’s quite a long time I catch up with Calyn and Crystal. We see each other during service but didnt have time to get together and talk. It’s just like “too near yet too far”. Suddenly, I feel like missing them. It’s been a long time we talked to one another. How are they? Are they ok? What are they busy with recently? Yesterday I called them out of randomness (just to get out of some awkward situation). I really miss their voice.. their everything. Gosh.. by the time I called Calyn, really broke down. I tried to control myself during the evening. Chatted with her about the awkward situation and some catching up.

Emotion of happiness
Because it’s my friend’s 21st bday. The age that you can fully get freedom, do whatever you want without parents consent. But, I’m not looking forward to my 21st though. This saturday is pear’s bday party. My wallet gonna burn another hole.

Emotion of Painfulness
My back hurts again. Like the other time, I cant breathe hard as i will feel pain everytime I breathe. I dont know why is this happening. Maybe it is because I carried heavy stuff? I really didnt take care of my health. It was so hurtful that I cried in pain in my room.

Emotion of Angriness and Irritativeness
Some people are just insensitive about people around them. Like when I say I dont want, means really dont want. Why must you force me? I’ve already made my stand clear at the beginning and you keep forcing me. I’m a bit sick and tired to hee-haa with you. Shall not say more here, my close friends know about it 就好了

Blessed girl

This week is really a blessed week, be it in school or at work. I started to understand why God arrange all these for me. His plan is so perfect. Initially, I doubted Him, and asked Him if this is what He wants me to be and why must He put me here. But this week, I finally realised the beauty of His plan. If you want me to share with you, just give me a shout and I can share it to you directly.

Work was great this week. I got to learn more things, and taking more responsibilities than before. During my stay in my company, I really really gain a lot. The kind of satisfaction is indescribable. I saw myself growing and learning each day. I’m really very blessed staying in this company. Although there maybe times whereby workload is heavy, clashes with colleagues, I believe this is what God is challenging me. To become who He wants me to be, mould me in my characters, strengthen my strengths and turns my weaknesses to strengths.

Today, I bought 3 shoes at one go. I have a lot of new shoes already, but I’m still buying to store them. In the end, I spent around $80++ and got the membership card. Members are entitled to 10% discount and an additional 20% if it falls on your birthday. But seems like I have around 12 shoes at least??..
