Holiday By Scorpions


I have plans for these holidays after exams just ended to keep myself busy and also because I do not want to regret wasting my holidays when school starts again. Well good news, my holidays are already wasted. Holidays were wasted mostly because of it from external circumstances, some from my mother and some from me. Well I’ll give you things that I came up with that I had to do during the holidays before the sacred HOLIDAY starts.

For personal things there are things like being religious, BlogSpot, GMR Union, dream house, drawing, Tamiya, transfer contacts to contact list, exercise, Transformation, set up own website. Well of all these, I only managed to transfer my contacts onto my laptop, sketch of my dream house & also writing some rubbish on my blog. Let’s see I have been fighting many times with my mother many times and who can be religious when they’re angry? Well okay being religious was entirely my fault. My house is messy because still just moved in and so I do not have the mood or creative spark to add ideas to GMR Union and GMR Union is basically my future band’s name which also the parent company of other smaller companies. I think I’m not rich yet to indulge in Tamiya though I worry that it might be extinct in Singapore. You can blame for my addiction for failure in exercise. There’s still plenty of time for transformation and transformation is basically a big make over for me. I have no internet at home, so no mood to learn how to set up own website.

For Sonic Arts which is the course I’m taking by the way, read all resources, combine musictheory.net, music theory & keyboard skills & music theory & practise to one PowerPoint, ask friends for advance modules 6ps were the only things. I nearly completed the compilation of the PowerPoint slides. I think asking friends in for advance module 6ps is hopeless because they’re not organized and reading all the resources is a mammoth task.

For music there’s ITunes, finish music theory workbook, re-download music, but no internet as usual.

For bass there’s Dmanlamius & Marlowedk, both of whom are bass players, play famous songs, read my book on beginning bass guitar & enrol in trinity rock/ thunder rock if it’s worth it. Let’s see again, house is messy and no internet and definitely no time for bass classes.

For computer games there’s GTA, Shogun 2, Rise of Nations, Age of Mythology, WarCraft, StarCraft, Football Manager, DOTA 2, Age of Empires Campaign, Napoleon Total War, Red Alert 2. I need a better computer to play GTA, Rise of Nations, Dota 2 & Napoleon Total War. I have spent so much of my wasted time of Dota 1 and I just keep playing because it’s addictive, to avoid doing housework & to also forget about my anger. I should have played Football Manager though since it’s already installed in my laptop but I guess now it’s too late because I might get hooked onto the game but school is around the corner. I was not able to play the other games because have not yet been downloaded.

I have also to play Pokémon but I do not want to continue the game until I’ve had another Nintendo DS or someone who would lend one to me.

For programmes there’s Code Geass, Adeu’s Legend, Guilty Crown, Kitchen Nightmares, Rocky Balboa, Starwars all of which were not downloaded. Titanic & Forrest Gump were the only movies that I’ve watched during the holidays both of which were awesome.  Well I’ve just downloaded about three movies in about 2 hours which is very fast considering I’m using the coffee shop’s WIFI. Those three movies are Pursuit of happiness, The Avengers & the Cabin in the Woods.  As I look through my collection of downloaded movies, I realize I do not have a favourite genre though of course romance is something I do not like very much, but if the movie is good, then I’ll watch romance.

For books there are books by Bernard Cornwell, A Tale of Two Cities, The Little Prince, And Then There Were None, Count of Monte Cristo, books by Robert Kiyosaki, Think & Grow Rich. All of which I couldn’t no do because there’s no libraries around my area or in Malaysia for that matter.

And lastly for computer there’s re-organize applications, screen saver, upgrading websites, pictures.  I think I’m not going to do any of those until I’ve bought a hard drive though upgrading websites could have been done if there’s internet.

Wow, what a super wasted holiday. Bloody hell.
