I really love this show

Eh

Petite bourgeoisie

School has officially started! And I've finally settled all my modules. (I had to reshuffle a little because of the TS module which I can't take because I actually didn't fulfill its prerequisite) So now I'm taking exp modules for sociology, history and european studies, along with a philosophy GEM module and a level 2 Japanse studies module(Why? I don't know). So far we've only had lectures and they were... okay. EU seems interesting but the lectures for SC and HY were really boring. But I guess that's what awaits me for the rest of my 3/4 years in NUS - Many, many hours of boredom.

I also realised I've recently developed a really short attention span. And I tend to zone out once in a while. During SC lecture just now I zoned out for a few moments when the lecturer said something funny(i think) and when he referred to that a while later, I WAS VERY CONFUSED. And I cannot read my readings properly at all. The past 8 months have rotted my brain. D:

(Marie Antoinette picture above is there because... it was on the first slide for the EU lecture and I was really mesmerized by how pretty it was.) (Anyway do listen to Nick Chim's songs in the previous entry because I think they're all very beautiful!!!) (Like Hollywood's Marie Antoinette!)

Matooer

So my USS photos didn't turn out. Most likely due to some sticky shutter/battery problem.

Oh and I have my 5 modules for this semesters all set. Initially, I intended to take the exposure modules for sociology, history and japanese studies. But I ended up not getting the japanese studies module, and last night I found out that the eu1101e isn't exactly a history module. So I am taking 2 exposure modules, one in sociology and another in european studies/history(still not sure about what it is). Other than that I am taking heavenly mathematics(I am very excited about this) and reason&persuasion(quite nervous) for my general education modules + singapore film for my SS module.

Yay I am a freshman.

HAPPY SUBURBS DAY!

Hi friends! Today is pretty awesome because Arcade Fire is releasing their third studio album! How much I love this band is beyond words. But anywho, here's some AF spam.

(Laika is my favourite song by them, I think.(It's really hard to choose))

I remember posting a picture on my blog from this video when i first fell in love with them. This was the first song I heard from them too.

YOU CAN JUST SEE THEIR AWESOMENESS.

This video makes me cry. Every. Single. Time.

I also made 2 or more blogskins(it used to be really cool to make them when I was 14) based on this song.

Sigh I LOVE THEM SO MUCH. I've spent so many hours of my teenage life listening to them and prancing around the house to them and sleeping on the bus to them and studying to them and yelling out their lyrics while alone at home and crying/sobbing/bawling to their songs. At every single concert I've been to I secretly think about how awesome it'll be if they were the ones up on stage instead(true story). I want to see them live really badly. Really. Badly.

Okay that's all for now. Hopefully I'll have a post soon with pictures from Saturday(Universal studios day).

It's all gonna break!

Broken Social Scene last night was awesome. Awesome in a sense that it kept me at awe. Although I haven't heard all the songs from their new album but still, they took me to a happy place. At one point, Kevin(Lead singer) went into the audience. Like just, hopped onto the floor. And everyone was all :o and hugging him and :o-ing some more. But there was this annoying girl who was trying to stuff her camera into his face or something, and you know what Kevin did????(I personally would've grabbed the camera from her and brutally smashed it into her skull but,) He took the camera and took a picture with her. ;_; Such a beautiful soul. Then he took pictures with another 20 or so people. While singing. IDK why but I was very touched although I was all the way on the third floor balcony. And it was such a loong and fruitful concert. Hate it very much when performers end after 1 and a half hour. They played a full 2 and a half hours and it was 2 and a half hours of bliss. I left the concert hall very happy. (Sorry about the grainy picture but that's the only thing my phone was able to take. Anyway considering the amount of DSLRs at the concert hall I's think the flickr BSS photo pool(assuming there is one) will be happily growing with pictures from last night)

Anyway Mercury prize nominees were announced last week and I sure do hope Mumford & Sons get it because their album is very good(understatement). Okay I must admit I haven't heard of most of the albums nominated but of the 3 I know(The xx, Laura Marling) I think M&S is the most deserving! But of course no one actually cares for my opinion.
