spent a few hectic minutes at orchard mrt pasting photographs into my huge, black, dusty portfolio with wee kwang. it was spread out all over the floor and everyone was looking at us like we were sort of insane. it felt like we were on some sort of crazy mission, like we were racing against the clock to complete this task of great importance. when we were done we looked up and this guy was staring at us. i smiled at him and he motioned to the photographs. "they're beautiful," he said. and my day was pretty much made. i turned up twenty minutes late for my second interview but hell, i scored a trial run on wednesday and if all goes well, y'all will be seeing a big bottle of tequila at that party courtesy of me. went to the all-important hardcore gig after that. steve towson was excellent but most of the other bands kind of sucked. the photographs i took sucked too. but it's alright. it's all good, really. it is.
no, no it isn't. when i'm sitting down i've got to be sitting down. when people play music they should be playing music. no one plays music anymore. i wish i could, really play some music, but i can't. i can't even sit down.
everything is really all about god. i've got to realise this for real.
