Last Minute

It's been a hell of a week! I had trouble sleeping and it felt like I was losing my mind. The Helpdesk Project haunted me with worries and uncertainty. The submission of the project was a big challenge itself. There I was, all packed up, waiting by the Chan Sow Lin LRT station for a transit ride to Bukit Jalil Station. There was a slight technical problem on the opposite lane. I heard a loud spark sound and the LRT malfunctioned and came to a halt. Luckily it's not the one I was supposed to ride on. But still, it took 30 minutes for the one I was waiting for to arrive. It was unexpectedly late, and it never occured to me before. Then, I took a 1.4 KM walk to my institute. Upon arrival, I checked my phone for the time. Okay, 4:45 p.m. I had more or less 2 hours to submit my work before I'd be doomed.

What a sight in the printing lab! It was so packed up that they had to use another room to ease the "traffic". To worsen the situation, a lady reprinted about 40 pages due to printing error. (You can imagine how you would feel if you were behind the line and time was running out.) When I finally got a hold of my printed documentation, it was already 5:30 p.m. I made my way to the first floor to find that there was another long set of queue in front of the binding shop. Oh Tahi! It seemed like there were 11 students ahead of me but, many of their acquaintances later showed up and added more documentation to their pile. "Oh great! Trapped in a stationary queue, now I'm really screwed.", I thought to myself. I was so close, yet so far. I could listen to the panicky beats of my distressed heart. As I was waiting for my binded documentation, I could see there were 30 more students behind me and some faces were familiar. The due time was 7 p.m. (Kesian betul those at the back.) I rushed to the administration counter with the lousy piece of work clenched in my hand. The pen wrote 6.45 p.m. on the submission time field. I was then handed a copy of the stamped CSFF Form, with a great sense of relief as a bonus. Mission accomplished! Next in line, presentation. (~_~)

Promising Pool

While I'm struggling with assignments, please enjoy school food punishment's "pool" music video. Have a nice day! =)

school food punishment

I've just found a buried treasure, a gem which outshines most mainstream music and proves that indie music can be just as captivating and not to be overlooked. I'm too tempted to recommend this. I just couldn't wait till next week! I will share with you guys one of the greatest satisfying album I've ever listened to. school food punishment's "school food is good food".

"school food punishment" is the name of the quad band, with Yumi Uchimura as the lead vocalist. Don't be fooled by the strikingly odd name; It's not some scream-your-heart-out punk music. Contrariwise, it's a fusion of alternative rock, ambient and indie-pop. "school food is good food" is their seemingly humble debut effort, consisting 6 tracks of splendour. Every track is pleasing to the ears, which proves that their formula is a success. The album provides a tingling sensation to the back of the neck and I could feel a rush of the blood to the head; an indication of the extreme highness you get from music. I'm rocked to my core! They have created an extraordinarily unique and mesmerising sound, leaving you craving for more to satisfy your auditory consumption. I would listen to a 6-piece solid album anytime rather than an album which is crippled with fillers. Quality over quantity, my friend. I would like to thank Dinnerplate for sharing it at Jpopsuki. I would definitely grab the album if I see it at any music store, or maybe request Kippei to order it as a last resort. Apparently they have just released a new album entitled “air feel, color swim”. Never felt this hyped up since Coldplay's debut.
