Anyway, as you can tell from the title of this post, Armin Van Buuren will be celebrating 400 episodes of A State of Trance this coming Thursday 16th April. Damn happy. The great thing about this year’s celebration is that it will be held over 3 different countries and you can be assured of bloody 72 hours of great trance music. Damn steam la.

The first broadcast will air live from Club Butan in Germany on Thursday April 16th, the second on Friday April 17th from Club Air in Birmingham, U.K., and the third and last one will be closed down in style on Saturday April 18th in one of Holland’s most refined clubs – The Maassilo in Rotterdam!

During these nights, of course Armin van Buuren will be dj-ing, but he will also encourage some of his colleagues to play there. For this elite cause, he asked the listeners of the show to choose for their favourite DJs, by opening an internet census on his special forum. Last week, Armin revealed the complete names:

The 400th episode during all three events, will be live broadcasted through 40 worldwide FM radiostations. For this special occasion, all free to follow on www.astateoftrance.com

This was what Armin had to say:

“In the meantime, it`s become a tradition to yearly celebrate this with a big party and broadcast it across the globe. The 400th episode and 8th birthday of A State of Trance will be bigger and more spectacular than ever before. The party starts in Germany on April 16th, where the radioshow has just been picked up by Sunshine Live, then moves on to UK on April 17th and will eventually see the great final in the Netherlands on April 18th. Trance is something which is greatly sought after and has just as big a status and fan base as any other style within today`s music. To celebrate this, I asked the listeners about their DJ heroes, of which most of them are able to spin a set at one of the three locations. Of course, all the sets will be broadcasted as much as possible through the radio and internet stations. Since radio is still for free, the entrance fee will again be kept as low as possible to give as many people as possible the opportunity to be a part of this.”

Remember back in the past when all I did on my blog was to blog about girls and zaogengs? And when I could use like over a gazillion different words to describe chiobus/zaogengs or what not? Well, as you can tell I have lost my writing mojo for a long time. But until yesterday, with the wonders of the World Wide Web, I stumbled onto this hot chick that I wrote about way back in February 2006 in my previous blog and I think I found abit of my mojo back! She’s that girl who at the tender age of 18 made it to the FHM Firecracker of the month! Madness!

Remember this back in February 2006?

Well fret not my friends! She is back! And this time around, she has become hotter, cooler and more zhng in a different way! And its not by revealing more flesh! She has become a MUSICIAN! Can you dig that shit? She’s one half of this new band called ‘Zsa & Claire’! And she plays the freaking violin! Wah lau really up the cool factor by 100 points man!

And if you think they’re like M2M or whatever female teeny pop band or some shit, well they’re not!

I checked out their music on Youtube and they can really sing! Quite impressive.

I think I’m like giving them free publicity here man. Anyway, I decided already that tomorrow night I’m gonna go check them out at Timbre Arthouse because all my projects & presentations end tomorrow. Scully tomorrow I go there then she recognise me as the perv who wrote about her 3 years ago and take her violin and smash my head. Cross my fingers!

I’m damn gay you know. I even joined their Facebook group. NON!

Anyway if you wanna find out more about them, do check them out at their website.

Here’s the info about their weekly gigs:

• mondays @ Pinchos @ Rochester Park (830pm-1030pm)
• thursdays @ Timbre Artshouse (845pm-12am)
• fridays & saturdays @Bar None @ St James (930pm-1015pm)

And if this is not enough!!! Cause I know there are lots of you fuckers out there who have plenty of time. You can go check out the Youtube videos of their performances. They sing like a wide range of covers that are pretty eclectic and mellow.

1. Zsa & Claire @ Bar None, St. James (Follow You Into the Dark, Death Cab)
2. Zsa & Claire @ Timbre, Artshouse – Slide (Goo Goo Dolls)
3. Zsa & Claire @ the Prince of Wales (Grace is Gone, Dave Matthews Band)

Ok thats all from me. I hope you guys like the update. Maybe some of you all already knew about this before me! I will update you more after I go check out their gig tomorrow. Anyone wants to go with me?

P.S I really hope she doesn’t google herself and find this shit. Haha. Damn loser again.

I think Kurt would be proud of this version. I hope I don’t get stoned by hardcore Nirvana fans for saying this.

I am sort of glad that my summer is kinda planned out in a kind of unexpected way. Everything has fallen into place in the past 2 weeks. I am feeling quite excited for summer to begin. So that I can kiss SMU temporarily goodbye for a good 4 months and embark on:

1. The 7s rugby tour in France with SMU
2. The much anticipated trip to Amsterdam with the SMU lads after the tournament in France ends
3. The 17-day overseas community service project in China again
4. 10 weeks internship at UOB

1 more month to go!

Must Listen Song: “The Thrillseekers feat. Fisher – The Last Time”

Hello fellow ACSians who are reading this. Happy 123rd Founder’s Day to all of you no matter which part of the planet you are at.

” Our Hearts, our Hopes, our Aims are One”

I was like super stunned by it. Tio stunned. It was abit zen like and all. So I told Kok during the steamboat dinner that he could probably practise Tantric there. His room is definately conducive for those kinda shenanigans. He almost choked on his dumpling man.

The AA3 guys are pretty funny. All of them picked up smoking somewhere along the way after we graduated. But the thing about them, namely Kok and Lucas, is that they are super GIAN to smoke all the time. Like any chance they can seize to smoke, they will. Like Kok, whose parents vacated the house so that we could have the gathering, said ‘Eh guys…let’s go smoke! No time already. Later my parents come back!’. Machiam like Hungry Ghost Festival. And Leslie Tay, who minutes before the dinner, told us that he had quit smoking for 3 weeks and was dishing out advice like ‘If you can tahan the first 2 days, sure can quit one.‘ YEAH RIGHT! Immediately after dinner, he was smoking with us at the staircase. So much for quitting smoking. Haha.

Among the many weird, bizzare & out of point topics raised during dinner, one that stuck clearly in my mind was a question asked by the girls.

“WHAT IS THE AVERAGE SIZE?”

VERRRYYY ! I verrry would know the average size of a guy’s penis. So many penises all around the world.  Go check out monsterofcocks.com and you probably will be astounded. But one thing is for sure. A black man’s one CONFIRM damn long. Schlong man! Case in point – Tafa. Actually I’ve never seen Tafa’s one. But he’s a BRUDDER man. So should be la. Anyway, when the girls asked that question. All the guys, including me, were telling them the different ways/methods you can use to estimate. So off we went, showing all the different methods with our hands, machiam like doing mambo jambo moves. Really looked abit like idiots. Kok showed the one where the estimation is the length of your 2 middle fingers connected together. I showed the one (which Stan taught me) – half of the length of the forearm. I don’t know man. Anyone has a more accurate method of estimating?

I wanna vent my frustration on some stupid shit that happened today ->

During coaching at ACS (Primary) today, I had 2 encounters with secondary school boys from Barker that made me feel that they’re real dicks. Like real fucking morons. So I was coaching my boys and suddenly Turts waved to me and told me something funny was happening nearby. We went to check it out and saw around 20 Barker boys. In the middle, there was like a fight. A bit like the scene from Fight Club. But in this case, skinny idiotic looking punks in school uniform with VERRRYY nice bodies. We could hear someone shouting ‘Kick him!’ We shouted at them and all those humji kias all pretend to walk away or run away. The best ones are those who ran away but left their bags behind. Fucking stupid. Anyway, we managed to catch one of the boy and brought him to the office. We found out that the boy (whose name is Gabriel) was being picked on by the rest of them. He told us he had no choice and that they forced him to stay back so that they could beat him up. I quote unquote him:

“They said that I’m their dog so I can’t run away. I have to follow them.”

WTF mate!

The next incident was even more out of point. About 20 minutes passed after we stopped the fight, another bunch of monkeys decided to play punk nearby. This time, instead of fighting, they decided to do the YAMAKASI shit. They were jumping around from railings to railings to ledges and all those nonsense. Then Turts could stand it anymore and fucked them. Then I just decided to chu my act fierce primary school teacher pattern and asked them to write down their name and class. Again, those guys cock shrink. They asked us a lot of dumb questions (more like pleading to us).

“Sir, is this a warning? Or will you inform our teachers?” (This was said with a damn scared look on his face)

“Sir, can you let us off? Please?”

Haha. Fucking hilarious.

The best was the convo Turts had with the leader of the group (turned out they were boys from the Chinese Orchestra. WHAT THE FUCK?)

Turts:”Do you know this is very dangerous? You can injure yourself or even break your neck?”

Act Hiong Boy:”But I always do this in school. There’s a group of people in Singapore who do this and even Mediacorp filmed them!”

Turts:”Why don’t you get Mediacorp to film you?”

Act Hiong Boy:”Erm erm (Tio stunned don’t know how to reply). Sir can let me off please?”

Then I had to butt in and said some out of point things.

Me: “Eh you so hiong you wanna join X-Games or not?”

That comment didn’t really make it la so I felt a bit loser at my attempt to act fierce so I quickly scuttled away and let Turts continue to fuck them. Haha.

These 2 encounters really made me feel like those punks are damn disgrace to ACS boys. I don’t know why. It’s not really the ACS(I) vs ACS (Barker) shit. I just really think they’re damn stupid. I would have said the same thing if those boys were boys from ACS(I). What the fuck happened to them ah? Why can’t they go KAP, eat burgers and see some girls. At least can jio some MGS or SCGS or St Magaret girls and buaya a bit. Like that won’t get into trouble. IDIOTS! Fucked up!

I have 3 Mid Term papers next week and I veerrry can study for them. I will be heading up to KL with my primary school boys for a rugby tour over the weekend. Plus I haven’t touched any of the stuff since Week 1. I’m prepared to just fuck it. All-expense paid trip. So I better go there and enjoy myself. Keith is my room mate. Yay! Haha gonna disturb him by snoring even louder at night and ‘smoke machine’ the room up. Don’t care!

Must Listen Song: “Ilya Soloviev & Paul Miller – Lover Summer (Orjan Nilsen Remix)“

Turts or Turtle or Turtsy = Jeremy Teo Tan Xiang

Mouth or Mouff = Chew Yin Xiang

Now remember that ok. Anyway when Swong heard that my name is Yin Xiang, she was like ‘Omg, you’re that Yin Xiang. Last time always hear about you one.’ I was like ‘VERRRYYY!!!’. Siao man. How come the name Yin Xiang precede the reputation of Mouth. WTF mate? Am I really that haps? I hope not. Nothing good comes out when you’re too haps and pops. I don’t think I made enough pilgrimage to King Albert Park (KAP) back in those days to earn such a powerful street cred. Speaking of KAP, I witnessed my zaogeng in KAP when I was Sec 1. It was on a Wednesday after a certain PCCG (Pastoral Care & Career Guidance) class with Grace Kwee. I was sitting with Darren, Kenneth and Joses on the 2nd level and witnessed this SCGS girl hanging out with a Barker boy. Then she just had to not sit properly and bingo! First ever zaogeng. Hurhurr.

Anyway I wanna talk about this Cass, who likes to call Turts ‘Turtsy’. I have no idea why. It is abit the act cute but I think she pulls it off just fine. She’s really quite funny. I happened to learn so much about NUS dorm life from her in just 1 night. I never knew there were so many deprived horny students living in NUS dorm. Not that I have a grudge against NUS people. I have lots of friends who are from NUS. But she told me that when she moved into NUS -Kent Ridge Hall in her first year, she caught a guy masturbating near the window of his room. VERRRRYYY! She saw from her room’s window. She was probably act screaming her head off in disgust but actually still sneaking a few peeks. So naughty. Haha. And guess what’s the best part. She is friends with that guy now despite the fact that he still continues to engage in these compromising position near his window. Bizzare!

Anyway, Mich left for Istanbul, Turkey last night and quite a fair bit of us turned up and sent her off. It feels so weird that she won’t be around for the next 5 months. Goodbye Beebs! Gotta get used to it. Not to worry, time flies past very fast and she’ll be back soon in July!

BYE BYE!

I decided to go back to China in May for Project Xinyuan II (the OCIP project I did in China last year). This time around, I’ll be heading up with a new bunch of year 1s together with Daniel and Joel. Really hope it will be as fun as last year. I don’t really wanna judge people but from what I gathered so far, there are quite a few jackasses that are heading up too. All those act cool clique-y people. YUCKS. Especially those act chio buay chio 89 skanks (especially a certain J girl who joined SMU pageant). Grossness! I hope the village kids throw a snake at her like what they did to Jiaying last year. Haha.

Haha Jeff ‘Hardy’ DTT-ed me during training today. And to make things worse, the ground was so hard and dry due to the fucking hot weather. Now my face is damn jialat. Back in JC,  my classmate said I had the face that looks like a fuckface. Now, its not fuckface anymore, its CUI! Omg, to quote Adidas, “Impossible Is Nothing”!

Well to look on the bright side, I can say I earned my red badge of courage la. Always wanted to get battle scars from rugby. Now I can go action to the girls, the profs in school (hopefully ask them to give extra time for me to hand up my assignments) and my primary school kids! And oh yes my relatives during Chinese New Year. Hopefully they sympathise me and give me more ang pows! I’ll just tell them I kena cockslap damn badly from someone from Monsters of Cocks.com

Now that really sounded damn gay.

Hope my face recovers soon. I tried applying aloe vera just now (under the advice of 2 LKC scholars – namely Alvin Tan & Daniel Leonidas Beyonce Ramone Lee). Verrrrryyy shiok! I really hope it does not get infected. Damn sian.

Must Listen Song: “Rosie & The Goldbug – Heartbreak (Gareth Emery Dub) [Lover Record Limited]“

I finally managed to watch the highly rated movie ‘Ip Man’. When I first heard of it, just like everyone else, I was like “Wtf kind of movie is it? What the hell is I-P Man?”. I want to learn wing chun man. And do the multiple non-stop ‘to fast to film’ punches to people. Haha. I think the most hilarious part of the show was seeing the bad guy/northerner who challenged Ip Man to a fight early in the show. That fucker looks exactly like Jason Poh Jin Yang!!! Omg I was laughing and shouting Jason Poh everytime I saw that guy’s face. Watching Ip Man made me thought of all the kung fu movies I watched when I was younger. Films such as Wong Fei Hong & all the Once Upon A Time In China series, Fong Sai Yuk. I used to be a fan of Jet Li man with all his no shadow kick. I wonder if Fong Sai Yuk, Wong Fei Hong, Ong Bak and Ip Man decide to have a fight, who will win? I think Ong Bak might really whoop their asses you know. Haha.

School has started and it feels really different this year. I don’t know why. Not gonna talk more about school. My only goal this sem is to try to finish up all the work on weekdays so that I can really enjoy my weekends.
