next best thing to going into heaven

Is going to the Mayhem Festival 2009. Every year, only the best metal line-up can make it. This year is no different. The name Trivium alone is enough to make my eye tears in happiness. Add them with Killswitch Engage and Bullet for My Valentine, there's no way I'm missing this event. Owh, remember God forbid that I missed because of final exams? They're gonna be there too.

The ticket arrived today and it looks like I'm gonna go there alone. Unless there's someone brave enough to join. Let me warn that this is gonna be loud, fast and full of drunk people.

Another thing. Last Sunday was the grad nite for the seniors. It was a blast. I've decided to post some cool pics.

Slipknot - Sulfur

A new video of Slipknot was released last weekend. The song is called Sulfur from last year's album All Hope is Gone. All I gotta say is, being under water with the mask on must have been scary. Enjoy it.

Crazy weekend

Yes it was. A lot happened.

All of 'em was great. Some more wonderful than the others.

One was especially awesome.

It seems that a rumor started going around. Whatever it is, I can only say it's most probably untrue. I sense that it is going to hurt some people. And I hate to see any of them feel uneasy around me. Please stop it.

False Alarm

Went to see an optometrist today. I really felt like my eyesight was deteriorating. I was so worried that I had nightmares that I have to wear this ugly and thick eyeglass. So I went to Illini Eye Care to have an eye exam.

First off, they asked a lot of this bogus medical questions that for me, personally, has nothing to do with the eyes. Anyway, on with the actual test. The optometrist told me to read the letters across the room with each eye and I can read the lowest one, although not as clear as I used to see. He then turned off the light and use this scope with light thingy and check the inside of my eyes. He said it was perfectly fine.

Then he used the machines with the rotating lenses while I say which lenses makes the letters at the far end of the room look clearer. However I just needed 1 click to make it all better. He then gave me a pair of lenses with -.50 power and brought me outside to read the door sign (with is small as hell) from across the street. FYI, that was farther than across the room before. I can read it clearly with the glasses on.

So what's the conclusion? He said I can make a pair of eyeglass with power 50 (it was soo damn thin), or wait and literally see if it gets worst. He recommended that I just stop stressing my eyes by not sitting too far at the back and eat more vegetables to improve them.

All in all, it was just a false alarm. I still have great vision. Although not as perfect as before. Gotta start eating more carrots to get them back to 20/20.

This sucks. That too, but in a good way

It's hard to update when the pc broke down. Anyway, I still took some time to write something on a borrowed laptop. It seems that the motherboard just went kaa-put. And at an even better time during the week that I have 3 exams. Well, on the bright side, I wont be able to play games. Hopefully that'll lead to more study time.

This week is gonna be a hellish one. But heaven is just at the end of it. Have a plan with a certain someone at a certain place. Hopefully I still remember how to do it right since if I remember correctly, the last time I did it was almost 2 years ago. HEHEHE*evil laugh*

ps: dont let your mind wonder too much. it's not what you think. well maybe it is

Looking for -> End of a Heartache

This is an oldie but goodie song from Killswitch Engage (KSE). They're one of my alltime favorite band. They're currently on tour preparing for their upcoming 5th album. Their last album, I thought, was a disappointment. Hopefully they will redeem themselves with the upcoming album.

This song is call 'End of a Heartache' - Killswitch Engage. FYI, I even have a sweater of KSE with a picture of a heart punctured with needles. I was surprised when my rhetoric lecturer, Ezra Claverie knew instantly that it was Killswitch Engage's sweater. I thought the name was the only thing we had in common.

This song tells about a guy that is currently broken hearted; maybe from previous love. He's waiting for a girl to heal it. To end his heartache, so to say. Does it has anything to do with me? Maybe.


Seek me, call me
I'll be waiting

This distance, this dissolution
I cling to memories while falling
Sleep brings release, and the hope of a new day
Waking the misery of being without you

Surrender, I give in
Another moment is another eternity

(Seek me) For comfort, (Call me) For solace
(I'll be waiting) For the end of my broken heart
(Seek me) Completion, (Call me) I'll be waiting
(I'll be waiting) For the end of my broken heart

You know me, you know me all too well
My only desire - to bridge our division

In sorrow I speak your name
And my voice mirrors my torment

(Seek me) For comfort, (Call me) For solace
(I'll be waiting) For the end of my broken heart
(Seek me) Completion, (Call me) I'll be waiting
(I'll be waiting) For the end of my broken heart

Am I breathing?
My strength fails me
Your picture, a bitter memory

For comfort, for solace
(Seek me) For comfort, (Call me) For solace
(I'll be waiting) For the end of my broken heart
(Seek me) Completion, (Call me) I'll be waiting
(I'll be waiting) For the end of my broken heart
