Moo Moo Year

I slept in the afternoon. Here’s what i dreamt about :

I am a spider.. I live in a dark house where all the other insects and animals live peacefully. But one day.. i started to feel unwelcomed, there’s this hatred feeling flying towards me. Then suddenly, one day, we need to move house. So, we were sliding down this super steep ice berg (yeah wth right) then obviously, few of us fell into the sea, including me. Xiann and Thiam Joo was there too, in the sea XD Then we tried to swim to a coast or something but failed. Then a shark came… (AHH) then the shark pulled some unknown people underwater then we started to panic. Then the shark was aiming Xiann, but we were supplied flippers and goggles. (XD) We avoid the shark for a moment.. Then the rescue team came.. They save Xiann first, then me. Thiam Joo was stranded. The rescue team couldnt save him. Then the sea become some small pond.. Thiam Joo was standing at the edge.. surrounded by fences, he cant get out. Then.. the pond disappeared… it became a sandy field. Then Soon Len and Samantha and few other people were playing softball, with a football.. Then suddenly, Thiam Joo was playing the piano and Alicea said :”Oh great.”

HAPPY CHINESE NEW YEAR! XD

Alot angpaus! =D

Probably signifies that this post is related to Japan. :D

This time, i’m gonna talk about music, again. (I’m such a boring person, right.)

The usual music style we have in modern bands now originates from the western, for example, a band that only consists of a vocalist, a guitarist, a bassist and a drummer. A common band like Sum41, Boys like girls, We the Kings etc.

Now here’s what that makes me feel like talking about this. J-Pop (Japanese pop but usually refers to japanese modern music) comes in a way that you wont expect :o What do i mean?

Merry Go Round - Mai Hoshimura

 

Instead of the usual 8-beat long bass line/notes (C G A F etc ) that we all hear now, it uses a wide range of notes that we dont really expect it to blend in that nicely. For an example of an repetitive note for the bass, why dont we take a look at Check Yes Juliet. If you listen carefully, the WHOLE song is the same chords, same length, excluding the pre-chorus. Even the Pachelbel Canon, hehe. But thats a masterpiece, so no argues here. :)  See what i mean now? Not to mention Chris Brown, Neyo, and all that. :S

Maybe what i’m trying to say is that western music, concentrates more on the tune rather than the melody, while japanese music implies both. I have to say that japanese is very creative in all ways.

No, i am not criticizing western music, i mean, not ALL western music is like that.. For example, All Star by Smashmouth has a pretty interesting bass.

Sekai wa ai to yobudanze - Sambomaster

Here’s another interesting ones, see how they make use of the notes? Heh. Okay i shall stop cause someone might just come and bash me up right now. :)

Heres something i dont really understand either. Maids. Yes, maids.

For some people it means someone who does all the housekeeping and stuff.

She's a part of the family.

I can't stand to see others treat their maids as their slave. Ordering them around like they have no feelings or anything. Lets just imagine you're her, and obviously you wont like it.

"She deserves it", "She has no future" or whatever, you can say anything you want, but you're wrong. I believe that everyone has a chance to start over again.

Give them a chance.

My maid has been with us for 10 years. She even has the "power" to go out on Sundays with her friends, drive out to buy groceries. Trust, is what we have here. And where does trust come from? Being good to each other, being able to rely on their responsibilities. Of course, she still does her job.

Be nice to them.
