where thoughts materialise.

So we're into the sixth version of my blog after the last version hung around for a year or so.

Now, a bit of info on this image. This photo was taken one lovely spring afternoon, featuring the iconic Old Well from the UNC Chapel Hill campus. I would like to think of this image as a tribute to my time in UNC Chapel Hill, the awesome friends I made and the memories I now hold dear.

A milestone in my life indeed.

I've dropped the tagboard cos its useless and taking eons to load. But thanks to Angela who helped me set it up, I still do like and will miss the pink interface.

So yeah, it's the sixth one you fellas!

Yours.

So vic threw a bbq party to mark her first pay, which was really timely cos its almost like the end-of-summer bbq party we've always wanted and its just 2 weeks shy of her birthday. So it ended up very much a bday celebration for her. Very typically summery bbqish, bbq and booze (from brewerkz I must add!), you can't go wrong with that.

In other news. Caught my first SSO performance of the 07/08 concert season on Friday, it must have been a year since I went for the last. Which is really regrettable I must say, all that talent within the SSO is really Singapore's under-hyped pride. But you can never go wrong with the music (aside from bbq and booze), they call it the classics for a reason, they never fade with time.

Do check out their concert in the park at the Botanic Gardens on the sunday of national day weekend. Though the acoustics are really bad there, its free lah! Great for Singaporeans young and old, kiasu and the kiasee. Bring your picnic baskets and have a great afternoon lazing away on the lawn.

Anyway, a very stirring yet in the words of nev, hopeful, rendition of Tchaikovsky's Symphony No. 5 in E minor, Opus 64 was played and it was very very satisfying to hear. I like pieces of this nature, very majestic but interspliced with so much emotion. They played Ravel's Alborada del gracioso too, which was plain awkward, didn't quite understand what Ravel was thinking of when he composed that, it has got to be the weirdest 8 minutes of my life listening that. I really do not know how to describe that piece in words.
