I always break down into tears when I watch this…
Have everyone look down on you… and slap them back with talent!

Random vid from NY to Boston…
Peterpan – Tertinggalkan Waktu
kau terbangun dari tidur panjang yang lelapkanmu
sesali wajahmu merenta kisahmu terlupa
kau sadari semua yang berjalan tlah tinggalkanmu
dan tak dapat merangkai semua dekat di khayalmu
kau harapkan keajaiban datang
hadir di pundakmu
kau harapkan keajaiban melengkapi khayalmu
kau biarkan mimpi tetap mimpi yang melengkapi khayalmu
kau terhenyak dan terbangunkan
dan harapkan keajaiban datang hadir dipundakmu
kini waktu meninggalkanmu
Here’s a song me and xiao wrote… It’s a cover of Peterpan’s “Semua Tentang Kita”. I simply translated the lyrics to English. I had been toying with my mic, trying to make an english cover of the song for xiao when she suddenly came… and we decided to record it together. It had been done in lest than 2 hours so please don’t be too harsh in criticism XD we had intended this as a fun thing… and I had intended it to be something to bring down memory lane… not so much as trying to hit all the right notes of perfection. Enjoy!

My lecturer, Stepeh Shipps, offered me USD100 for my “Mirror” artwork! The negotiating process was just down right retarded. He had offered me USD100 and I said free at first… he suggested we make it 50-50 and so he’ll give me USD50. I was reluctant (who the fuck sells his own artwork to his own lecturer?!) but then obliged to think about it. Next day, I agreed with USD50. He said he really wanted to give me USD100… I still said no… and then we came to a consensus of USD75.. but he end up giving me USD80. It was an exhilarating moment. I recall him saying “thank you” and how happy he was… I recall myself looking like a fucking retard, smiling all the way and mumbling my words… overwhelmed with joy!
Basically what I did was create two 25 equal sized squares which forms 2 large boxes. On the left hand side, I would capture the flux of the different derivations of the word “imagine”… these words are still confined within the laws of the English language. When viewed, you know what it is saying. Then, I’ll randomly replicate any of the boxes from the left hand side onto any of the boxes on the right hand side. Defying all laws which governs understanding… It is what I call “an attempt to capture the essence of an idea”. Take it as you may!

A combination of jordan’s and air force, me sneakers are wicked sick! Period.
Here… it is all about drinking.. and drinking.
And I have no idea why as of late.. I desire it not.
Hence, Weekends are spent alone.. in front of my computer…
sometimes its frustrating.. (boredom is one, and sure hell is mine cause of neurosis).. sometimes things happen
Today, I bought World of Warcraft.. but them thousands of infinite patches that I need to download prevents me from playing at all..
I’ve been waiting here.. siting ducks for a good 3 hours.. nonetheless, it is not time wasted
I made another song. For those of you who even took the effort to view my myspace profile, I thank you.

Today’s new edition to my playlist is “Human”
Call it crap… call it weird.. call it ugly.. call it whatever you want, I don’t know how to write conventional stuff!
Lyrics:
By declaring that man is responsible and must actualize the potential meaning of his life, I wish to stress that the true meaning of life is to be discovered in the world rater than within man or his own psyche, as though it were a closed system. I have termed this constitutive characteristic “the self-transcendence of human existence”. It denotes the fact that being human always points, and is directed, to something or someone, other than oneself - be it a meaning to fulfill or another human being to encounter. The more one forgets himself – by giving himself to a cause to serve or another person to love – the more human he is and the more he actualizes himself. What is called self-actualization is not an attainable aim at all, for the simple reason that the more one would strive for it, the more he would miss it. In other words, self-actualization is possible only as a side-effect of self-transcendence. -Viktor E. Frankl
I’m singing the Master’s text on logotherapy… you can imagine how bored I am! Nonetheless, I find his philosophy absolutely mind blowing – and in many ways, materializes many of the believes I held so strongly into plain alphabetical symbols, easily perceived and absorbed.
