Mood : Depressed

It’s been a while that Mlog have been updated, it’s either we are too lazy to do it or too busy to do it…

Out of the sudden i thought of updating it so i’m doing it now…Last friday, something really really bad happen, something which makes me realized how much i’ve neglected someone who’s really important in my family…that is my Grandma…

The last time I talked to her was on the phone when i was on the way to mersing for my short holiday…

And the last time I saw her was when she was sleeping in her room, on the day when she left us, an hour after i last saw her…

This was the first time i’ve ever cried so much…she look peaceful when she past away…

I’m totally lost and confuse now…really hard to think properly…

I’m going to stop here for now, i don’t feel like typing anymore…

P/s : Appreciate and care for your family, friends and loved one…by the time u found out u regret, it’s too late…

But for CW this is not his first time doing it…

I thought CW will be better since it’s not his first time doing but turn out “first timer Moon” did it better then CW…Moon was truely born to be a **** star…

The night before Moon did not sleep well till 4am, and for me i woke up in the morning around 9am but went back to sleep again and wake again and sleep again…in the same time i kept going to the bath room, maybe i’m feeling nervous cause it’s my first time…

We met up at CW’s place had lunch at his place, FOR THE FIRST TIME BETWEEN THIS 5 YEARS!! Hang out in his room a while and off we go to the place for our first shooting…Before reaching the highway CW phoned me and told me he is going back home to get his bass…Both me and Moon burst out in tears XD…i was nervous when we were waiting for the producer outside the national zoo…and i prayed to god “Pls not let my first time with the animals”…

After around 10 - 15 mins drive away from the zoo we reached the destination…

The production team were shooting for a solo artist, so we did out make up and waited for out turn…

After waiting some time, chit chat a little with the producer finally it was our turn…

1. Stand by. 2. Rocking. 3. Nearly dying from the smoke. 4. Ichiro in monitor.

1. Before getting in. 2. Trying to get some air. 3. The star send from above. 4. Moon in monitor

It was hot and smoking!! The smoke keep gets in my eyes while i was taking the 2nd shot and my sweat we dripping…but at least it was fun…did manage to ask someone to take a picture of us when we 3 were together inside…and some funny incident happened…there’s 1 part we jump up and landed hard that causes the CD player to hang and we were lost when the music stops suddenly and laugh out loud when the music suddenly continue from no where, everyone was laughing out loud…

Then it was the outdoor scene, and we did some climbing hahaha…

Perfect

Wednesday, May 27, 2009 3:40AM / Standard Entry

I remember when I was in primary school, a teacher whom I can’t remember who she was, raised a topic about being a perfect person. She asked a question to the class: Who among the class think he or she is a perfect person please raise your hand.

I’m just a kid that time and I remember I did think myself was quite near to perfect(lol)… But I didn’t raise my hand cause I know I haven’t been there yet and I don’t want attention or being laugh by anyone. Suprisingly, a boy sat near me raised his hand…

I can’t remember what happen after that, did the teacher ask him some question on why he thinks himself perfect, or did anyone laugh at him. I can’t remember his name, but I remember his face, even now. I wonder how he is doing now and did he remember the incident. Will he laugh at himself if he remembers?

I wonder how a man he becomes now…

I on the other hand, looking at things around me now, able to roughly tell how a man I’ve become.

Or… am I still a kid? I suddenly feel sad.

Damn that teacher, I suddenly realized she played a real big joke on us.

Moon.

Once upon a time....
It all started during sorcery college times when a young apprentice Moon was looking forward to build a flying magic ship. This ship however, is not rare or special in any kind. It is an average common magic ship. It carries dreams and treasure, freedom and burden, it pours hope and despair, and it takes you to where you (think you) belong. It maybe just a small dream to live, but it was never easy.

According to wizard history, many failed and quitted, while some died trying.

Like any other time consuming spell, he couldn't do it all on his own. He formed a union with others who share the same idea but possess different abilities. It was first formed in Jan 17th 2004. Since then, this "magic ship" is in construction. Moon named the ship, Mage.

Slowly learning, building, evolving, Mage is still actively pursuing and is presently consist of 3 active spell casters:

The Mastermind
Name: Moon
Band role: Vocal, Guitar

The Chef, with style
Name: Ichiro
Band role: Guitar

The attitude night show entertainer
Name: CW
Band role: Bass

Roots in the waste land
Mage started playing in college shows, prom nights, and some gigs. Few of them are just ok; others are just too empty to be considered as a gig, not to mention some are an EP launch. It’s a dead waste land they’re living in. Trees don’t grow here.

For better or worst, during that time their works can’t fit in nicely to any of the underground trend. “Why don’t we call the shots?”, slowly a new trend popping in the waste land. Moon decided to organize a series of on-going gig shows dedicated to Mage’s music roots, thus borne “J-rock Kingdom”. It then somehow gathered a number of audiences and friends along the way with their passion and captivating live performance.

Since then, Mage realized something is going on.

The Mage's style
Mage’s genre range from soft ballad to experimental, presented in a dark-visual image and gloomy manner, sarcasmly integrate with enchanted bliss in contrast. The band spell-crafted their works in mysterious way to indirectly express themselves, hoping to leaves trail along their journey by offer this gift, to whom ever wish to take. Their works is in both English and Chinese.

Mage will always have fun building the ship, and value the joy of sharing it with the people.
