December Blog!

A Month since I blogged.

Okay, it's gonna be one hell of a time during the next 3 weeks....3 assignments to finish up.

MUMI/Songwriting - Friday w/ Presentation
Portfolio - 4th January 2010
Arranging - 14th January 2010.

I'm gonna need the help I could get. I just bought a new ThumbDrive which is Cheap and good. 16 Bucks for 4 Gigs...not bad not bad.....

Just had Dinner/Meeting with some of my Legacy Guys (From BattleStations) on Monday after chionging more Portfolio at a MacDonald's Outlet at Hougang Mall. The Gang consisted of Clan Master Conrad Li, Admiral Chan Yi Teng, Hans, and WeiXian. It's rare we had meetings in person where we discussed about the scripting problems from HK Utd and some strategies. I wuz the youngest of the Bunch there since the rest of the gang were veterans in BS.

I'm gonna be quite involved in the Christmas Midnight mass back in the Holy Family Church...Not say involved but Really involved as I am the main musician for this combined choir of Genesis 2 and St. Davids. So it's gonna take me a while to get used to this amount of playing, i've already arranged my scores so that's not a problem. This Thursday, I've a midnight mass, Friday another Caroling practice, Saturday another Wedding/Mass.....Oh Damn....

Well, Back to Work...UltimateDeep, signing out.

About Time To Blog

Well, it's been quite a long while. I didn't blog since way before ITP, so it's time to add one new post.

Okay, Semester 2 Begun after a struggling 8 weeks from ITP and i must say i'm getting really bushed up. It was a really tiring ITP and often cannot cope with my work as the workload was simply too much for me to handle....maybe not yet for now.

OKay, not to mention, I have to cramp in one Exam for LRSM during my ITP. That one is on the 1st of September. Had a hard time but hey, Managed to pull it off with a Pass grade.

Can't write too much, i've been sick for the past couple days. Maybe more when I feel better.

ZZZZZZ.....

Well...I just feel like streaming more of my music stuff, (on Piano and Mario Paint Composer) on Youtube. Didn't feel like doing anything else this afternoon..Attempted Kingdom Hearts Dearly beloved, it was good when i made it, but sound quality sucks when I tried to record and encode it as a video, the "D" note (from the Strings especially), scare the shit out of me! Well, i'm gonna keep trying till i get that one fixed. Soon as i'm done, i'll possibly upload and stream on Youtube, or Maybe Live Stream on JTV. We'll see what I'll do.

Cheonged Flight of the BumbleBee by Maksim last week, Arranging done...REMT nearly done....Wah damn! I just feel so wasted. And my neck's been hurting real alot lately. My Big Left Toe still bleeds both Blood and Pus occasionally, though it's been 2 weeks already without any band-aids (see previous Blog Entry). Moreover it still hurts as hell when someone accidentally steps or smacks on it or sometimes accidentally kick it against the stairs. And My socks have been absorbing the bleeding, making it stink, had to keep changing socks much more often.

I still have PAMs to finish....


Went to Church last Saturday... and I am really Shocked that Noel Came with Botak Head. It was like: "Oh...WTF?!!" I was just like that shelled shocked. It was really quite scary to be honest. Went to the Airport Swensen's for desert after prac, and realised that the Chopin Bacarolle in F# Book that my Music Teacher lent me for program notes was still in my bag, didn't take it out the day before. I showed that book to Noel, who revealed to me he doesn't really like Chopin. Waited with him and the rest of the Choir at the Airport for our queue, incidentally met Yee Yee and Tio tio, who happened to be walking past Swensen's, and gave me and Gerald a lift back home after finishing our deserts.

I'm still wasted as always. Third year in Poly is this freak-ish. Not to mention had a series of weddings a week before.

School Re-opens with a Painful incident

Shit! One thing I have to say about MOE's Decision is Utter Crap! Ya, now 700 cases now. So MOE? What are you gonna do about this? Clusters developing in school...Utter Bullcrappiness. Won't be surprise if it passes 1000 more anytime this week or next week.

Ya but now school re-opens, but it is REALLY painful this afternoon before recording. The damn bloody studio C door rammed to be Big Toe (Left Foot), It bled like hell, I had to wrapped the toe with several layers of tissue to ease the bleed. Just came back home, replaced the tissue with 2 strips of Band-aids. Imagine my toe being in so much pain even as I'm typing. It hurts SO MUCH, had to limp now. Can't walk for now.

OK, aside from Injury wise, mental wise, I'm so cramped as hell. THIS IS UTTERLY CRAZY!!!! I still have these assignments to go for the next 1 or 2 months:

Music and Audio for Moving Images: Group Work
REMT and Arranging: Cover Song (Linked Assignment)
PAM: Presentation
Report on Concert
PAM Related Piece
Portfolio: Work 1
Arranging: Assignment 2

ARRRGGGHHHH!!!!!!!!!! I need this whole workload shrunked down!! I just utterly feel like swearing and bitching everywhere now!!!! When will this get any freaking better??!!!!!


Enough said on the Bad side. Now for the positive bright side.

The Choir had yet another Movie Outing, and this time, Me, Gerald, Darren, Jeremy Bek, Melissa, Jonathan AKA Sexy, Bryan, Sandrine, Andrea (Older not the younger one), Melody turned up for the Transformers Movie!! It Rocked literally, Quite a number of good points. I quite liked the funny old Twins and Bumblebee.

We had a request to play for the wedding so we turned up the morning after the Transformers' Film the night before. Guess what, one of the former Parish Priest I served as a Altar Server, Fr. Anthony Ho was the celebrant. I missed his funny yet meaningful sermons. He is old, but still has that particular sense of humor.

Gotta Go, i have a series of weddings and a mass on Saturday and I must do something about that Hurting Toe of mine....Ouch....just had another sharp pain....maybe do I need painkillers??? We'll see Shall we?


Paul AKA UDeep signing off....ouch.....

UPDATES! Again!

Okay, We enter the Middle of May. Got quite alot of stuff to say.

First of all, I'm freaking FREAKING stressed up right now. Cuz' now in 3rd year and now my assignment workload is pretty much Fucked up. I just feel so tired lately, really. I think I've been trying so hard.

Lately, my dad just got a couple of guys to come in and replace my old air-conditioning units for new ones. Now the ground floor Living and Dining rooms have one unit each. It takes for them 2 days to finish, i was starting to complain when the workers worked till 11:30pm in the first night. I was simply too tired to say anything else, but to urge them to finish up.

Last week, My Old Laptop charger broke after some freak incident during Processes in Asian Music made me drop my charger and drain the hell out of my Battery power which cannot even last for 5 minutes! 5 F***ING minutes! What the hell is that?! WOW.....can't describe with anything else. I just bought a replacement on Thursday, which cost Shit. 160 Bucks for a Charger?! Crap man.

Oh, just on Friday I went for the Movie Angels and Demons with some of my Choir Members: Noel, Winnie, Darren, Chris, Bryan, Clara, Anthony, Jonathan. I didn't see anything wrong about it after rumors from my friends tell me that it might shake my faith. To me I just see it as a Fictional Story, of course, Catholic Newspaper yesterday reported that the Vatican Newspaper say there isn't really anything wrong with it. Huh. I bought a bag of Popcorn but I only finished half, Yucks....Too much honey, or was it Caramel? Either way, yucks.

That's quite alot to say....AND Oh yeah! I'll be buying a Ticket from Si Hao for Final Fantasy Distant Worlds, might even get to meet Mr Nobuo Uematsu-sama himself since he'll be present there. Thanks to Si Hao, he will sell his extra tickets to Me and Shun. So that'll make the 3 of us. Sorry Genesis II, can't make it for mass this Saturday, Har har....

UPDATES!

It's high time since I blogged.
First things first, If you do play on facebook, try the game Battle Stations. It is a bad-ass game. Use the referral Link.

Well, another week and a half before school re-opens. Time table is not gonna be so hectic, AT LEAST I CAN SLEEP for 2 days. Shiok.

Just a couple weeks ago, my family flew to Bangkok for some food bizaare. The weather down there was really freaking hot. You'll sweat much worse in Bangkok than in Singapore. I remained in the hotel during the first day as i was sort of lethargic during the 2 and a half hour Flight to Bangkok. But that was the best decision made while my parents are out. They were on foot and were sweating like crazy. Second day was not so bad. Brother fell sick. The most shiok part is always the Air-con and the food. Somewhat overkilled on the spices. Dinner on the second night was cool but far too spicy. Just one bite is enough to kill.

For now, this week will be Holy Week. For this weekend I am freaking busy with my Church Choir during the Easter Triduum which is Holy Thursday, Good Friday and Easter Vigil Saturday. I gotta take good care of my voice, take good care of my health. And this time I won't miss this important Easter Vigil Saturday as I missed it last year during my trip to Rome after Good Friday.

Gotta Go. Good luck for Ping Yi's Singapore Youth Festival.

More Updates!

OKIE! Hiya, Mr UDeep is back again!

Just returned from a Gig/Recording and Mixing Tests. Me, was a drummer again. Since no one else in my group knew how to play them (Pei Lin and Joyce can only play Keys, Shayne on the Guitar again, Jeremy on the Pipa, and Gin on the Vox). Had a long week. This week is all project based....WAH!!!!! Can die already! I am currently injured and recovering from sprained knee cramps. Reason why is strictly classified.

Music Theory was a piece of cake, GEMs luckily didn't have tests, Performance still have one more stage but that would be as easy as pie, I've still have one more test from MIDI and I have to catch up with all the assignments. And my BUMS I have loads to do.

Okay other things! I'm more or less back into MIDI transcription from video game OSTs again. I recently made quite a few Suikoden 2 and Tales of Eternia MIDIs in the beginning of the year. They are:

Softening Theme - Genso Suikoden II
A Song in Praise of Peace - Genso Suikoden II
Inferia - Tales of Eternia
Inferia Port - same

The most daring one was the Requiem of a Dream, a Song used in the Lord of the Rings Two Towers Trailer. I completed it in about 4 hours and I was quite pleased with that. My DMAT Classmates was so amazed to have crazy ears like mine as I totally transcribed EVERY single MIDI by ear.

Quite a Tale huh??? I'll leave it at this stage! Till next time!
