Exam tomorrow. Butt still aches.

It is quite amazing how sometimes you think that time is positively crawling and you want it to go faster, like when you are stuck in a Credit Lecture that should have ended at least 30 minutes before. At the same time, sometimes, time postively flies by, like when you are at Red Box, and the waiter just hands you the bill just as you are about to sing your second song. Rude.

Arashi has released their latest single, Kitto Daijoubu. Is it just me, or are they not having songs as good they have had ? Or could it be that I have slowly got over my interest in them. Personally, I think that although I have definitely lost some interest in the Japanese scene and returned in force to the Chinese music scene, their new song does not measure up. As for NewS, I guess you can tell that they are not coming back. Lead, Flame, TT have managed to disappear to obscurity and W-inds are unevolvingly producing the same type of songs. As for the Koreans, Rain's only nice song is Sad Tango, DBSK is passable, BoA is alright and that is about it for me. I must admit right now, the Chinese scene is more my thing. It marks a complete cycle back to the time in SAM when I was heavily immersed when Jay Chou first released his songs. After 4 years, while Jay, Alexander and David have had some of the best songs, there have been many many new talents in the last year with some fantastic songs. This bodes well for Red Box. Rest assured they will have many more visits from me. I wonder if I should just get a VIP card....

Had Sakae Sushi for lunch again. It is addictive. Needless to say, pretty glad that they have a new branch at Subang Parade. No need to go all the way to the Curve. Though I must admit I will go to Parade again soon, as they seem to be undergoing big changes. New shops, new tiles, new furnishings. If more shops like Shins open up, it will be an interesting place. One reason I like Shins so much is because I am able to get stuff there that I used to get in Melbourne and I find it very hard to get here. But at Shins, they have the whole range. I am referring to certain hair products. Melbourne is fantastic. If only I could import Melbourne over...... However, I do have certain fond feelings for Malaysia. Now if only the people and the way they think and act would change and the weather would drop 10 degrees..........The place itself is fine. And there is nothing as beautiful in Melbourne as our own Petronas Towers at night. Shining brightly at night, this beacon is a welcome sight even if it is only peeking out behind some other towers.
