I just love it when people become dramatic.

This was written/blogged by a Christian. Wow… read it before making judgments. She (yes it’s a she) even mixed them up with the Japanese.

Sounds like a certain whiny critter I know, except you replace “Chinese” with “Islam”.

GOT MY GREEN DAY TICKETS!!!

GOT MY NEW MANCHESTER UNITED AWAY JERSEY!!!

ROAR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Band update

Isabel joined us for jamming. Wrote a new riff, need the lyrics. Chances are the song will be called, “Why?'”, which would evolve around why there are so much hate in this world and why people can’t get along.

21st Century Breakdown music video

Felt bad for posting “recorded” recordings of the video.

Congrats Green Day!

Green Day won 2 awards at MTV's Latin America Awards: Best International Rock Artist & Best Music in a Video Game (Rockband).

Got my tickets for the Green Day concert!

In need of a proof

Till today, no Christian has ever showed me the verse or the verses in the Quran that says they must kill for their religion.

On the contrary, no Christian has showed me the verse in the Bible that Islam is the religion that is opposing Christianity.

Why look at the fault of another religion when our religion has so much flaws?

Rhyming

For those who concentrated during English classes, you would realize that the teachers emphasize that rhyming is important when writing poems, songs etc. Important in a sense that it has a flow in the material.

Note that it is important but NOT necessarily a rule to follow. Writing in rhymes have always made it hard for me when I write songs. So one day I just screwed that, and wrote according to what came to me, and it worked pretty well. The two songs I’ve written for my band, does not have a proper ending structure (a-b-a-b / a-a-b-b).

Move On:

…turn

…had

…you

…hide

…friend

…you

…on

…life

…there

…tomorrow

…there

…answers

…them

…you

…you (yay first rhyme!)

…side

…up

…Lord

…there

…there

…tomorrow

Pretty weird structure eh? But if you listened to the song, you would not realize that I did not follow.

When I told my bandmates about this “phenomenon”, their reply was, “Dude, it shows that it’s honest”. Which kind of struck me, cause whenever I wrote songs for my previous band, I had the ideas, but I was forcing myself to find rhymes, to a point that the song did not mean anything anymore. This song, I wrote it straight, without thinking of the rhyme.

I found a poem online, which I think the rhymes are pretty forced:

selfish selfish lil freaks.
so much worse those selfless geeks.
per class per pic thats so much better
than lettin' bonds divide and shatter.
I'll bring my cam ok? said she.
nope its k, ill bring. said he.
"when they pose we'll take it, run and flee
ooh! that sounds so good, so great! to me..."
"Their using ours now, why so?
what'r you to them? a friend or foe?
Stick by us, or out you go!
Hah! you'll stick with us, i know."
Its three one to eight
used to be nine, but to date,
that one has left em when one of em said
"though u aint comin, we aint repayin.
oh ooo... youre just too late!"
An atom is splitting,
the results, surely devastating.
exam's comin, you sure you'll do well?
maybe, youre smart. but thats just a shell.
outside, youre filled with courage
inside, disgustin flesh that brings about rage
and that, in life shall be your cave.
until yourself you one day save.

When I first read it, the first thing that came to mind, “Bad attempt at using classical English format, mixing it with modern slangs, and trying to rhyme it at the same time”.

It’s a wonder how certain songwriters rhyme their songs so beautifully, maybe that’s why they are paid millions.
