Jules: HAHAHA srsly ur damn lousy k.
Mavis: YES. the world needs more ppl like us.

Zoukout 08

The day after a huge night is always kind of depressing. It's like.. coming back from a holiday, and having to unpack, and knowing it's all over and that you'll have to find something else to look forward to now. Not that I don't have anything to look forward to though, and I know this feeling's gonna be quadrupled when i get back on new year's day.

Last night was, epic. It wasn't a blur but just like so many things were happening at the same time. I think I incurred at least 3 different burns on my hands and feet throughout the night :| I felt like we were running all over the place and dancing our asses off (the electro stage was soooooooo good) until we nearly lost control of our legs. The main arena sucked balls, Sasha and Above and Beyond were pretty shit, though by the time A&B's set came on at 5am we were all so tired tt we were sitting on the sand surrounded by trash and naked gay men and stoning, esp cause trance is so good to stone to.

Surprisingly, I didn't lose anything last night. Here are 5 important lessons i learned:

1. Julianna Lau Jipeng sux
2. Damon Albarn look-alike is not as cool as I thought
3. Playing with sparklers is dangerous
4. All electro djs look like hobos
   
5. My tactic for curing the hiccups also works with chicken nuggets
   

All That's Unusual

thunderheist - jerk it from thatgo on Vimeo.


natalie portman's shaved head - sophisticated side ponytail from thatgo on Vimeo.

I was kinda into these two videos, I don't know why they never made it to my blog. But anyways, I came across thunderheist's video again on Priek and i wanted to share it with u guys. Both videos were directed by That Go. Pretty awesomezz stuff.

Also, if anyone (including my secret santa) would like to get me an inflatable sumo costume, i would shag you in exchange. Only $39.90!

Something Beautiful

Listening to Plush by The Stone Temple Pilots



Something beautiful, like me. It's called the Waterdrop by Roca, who claims to be the leading global bathroom brand. I'm still not quite sure what it does, but I wouldn't mind having one of those in my bathroom.

i've been dreaming of a gay christmas

Here's Supermodel Koh (as seen in photo)'s secret santa wishlist!

1. A thick and veiny cock (dildo/vibrator/buttplug will do too)
   
2. High-cut sneakers
3. Polo Teas
4. In-Earphones
5. Chunky Zebra Ring from small shop in far east (ask ade/poo)

Jules: HAHAHAHHA OH YEAH I ADDED IT ALR!
Mavis: awesumzz

Lets Be Superheroes

Now even though I think PETA fights for a good cause, I really think they are fucking annoying. I'm more supportive of those who back a good cause without being abrasive and in your face, and it's so nice to know that there are people out there who care about the world and want to spread the message in a pretty way, even if 90% of those who see it don't do anything about it.

This video came out a few months back and i raved on and on about it but I don't know why I didn't put it up. Very very brilliantly simple outdoor advertising in New York about the dying polar bears. This piece was put up by Joshua Allen Harris for the Environmental Defense Fund.

Vampires are so in

The Swedish art film, Let The Right One In is the first vampire film I've seen that is completely unpretentious and honest. It's probably the first one I've seen that doesn't try to make vampires seem cool or sexy.

It's about a boy who's the loner in school that gets picked on a lot. He meets this girl who moves in next door, they develop a friendship/relationship and eventually, he begins to suspect that she's a vampire. Now I know my summary sounds lame but I promise it was a fantastic movie. They shot the movie in such a beautiful way, portraying the startling innocence and maturity of the young in the most honest way. Even though the story wasn't full of excitement and action, the way it was shot just made me want to watch it again. It made me want to go to Sweden.

Ready Set Blow

I am damn proud of coming up with two awesome porn movie names today,

1. Ready Set Blow
2. Cherry Poppins

though jules wins hands down with Black Cock Down (oh no! we have to get it up again!)

Ready Set Glo with Steve Aoki was fuckin awesome, srsly so satisfying, particularly after the last RSG. I saw everyone tt i wanted to see, and had the most awesome company ever, and the music was fucking good. We had quite a flot of drinks, and while we were waiting for Aoki to come on stage Jules and I had a cock battle (Yo Mamma style).

Jules: I will suck his cock so hard that it will come out through my nose.
Ade: I will suck his cock so hard that it go into my intestines and i will shit it out. Then I'll suck it again.
Jules: I will suck his cock so hard that his pee hole will expand to the size of a vadge.
Ade: I will suck his cock so hard that when he cums, cum will spurt out through my vadge.
Jules: I will suck his cock so hard that it will split into two and then when he cums it will drip out of my nostrils.
Ade: I will suck his cock so hard that it will split into two, and then i'll suck it until it splits again and again until it becomes powder and then i'll snort it and get high on his cock.
Jules: HAHAHAHAHAHA CHEEBYE I CAN'T TAKE IT ANYMORE HAHAHAHAHAHAHAH
David, June and June's friend: OOOOOOOHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!! WE HAVE A WINNER!!!!

And then later...
Jules: Eh dude, don't you think if you got a cock, and put it in a cock-sized coffin and cremated it and then snorted the powder, it would be fucking hot?
June's Friend: I'M NOT GAY!!! but ya that's quite hot.
Ade: dude... that's necrophilia man. Not cool.
Jules: Ya but.. ya. Fuck. True but.. EH DAVID go cremate your cock so we can try!

HAHHAHAHAHA I fuckin love c&c.

The Asian Beach Games

I came across this photo and I was struck by how fake their bodies look. Some very freaky shit.

"Athletes compete in the men's 60kg body building competition on day three of the 2008 Asian Beach Games at Kuta Beach on October 20, 2008 in Bali, Indonesia." [via]


Also have a funny video of Russel Peters making fun of Asians/Singaporeans on our obsession with DDR. hahahaha

Priya: Yes! I wanna adopt him!

Britain's Got Talent

I was watching the video of Busty Heart and I got sidetracked and spent the rest of my night watching America/Britain/Europe's Got Talent and though there are 3483726326274 amazing performances, George Sampson was the one who stole my heart. He is the cutest thing ever! Specializing in freestyle street dance and break dance, he first auditioned in 2007 at the age of 13 to try and win so that he can help to support his family (omg). He never made it to the semi-finals even though Simon Cowell was fighting for him.

But instead of crying, he spent the next 12 months training and performing on the streets to raise money for dance lessons and a trip to the 2008 auditions. This year he won Britain's Got Talent and the top prize of 100,000 pounds along with several contracts. Srsly you must watch his video, he is Justin Timberlake except 10 years younger. I'm so fucking in love with him now, I can't stop watching his videos. The one above is his performance for the 2008 finals (srsly brilliant stuff MUST WATCH!). The video below is his first performance in 2007, i'm sorry i can't stop saying this but he's so fucking cute!!

Human Skateboard

Listening to Cocotte by Teenage Bad Girl



More insanely awesome stop-motion videos (except in GIF this time), same idea as the human skateboard.

[via]

Coraline

Came across an article on the much-anticipated Coraline. Their website blew me away, not for the concept but for the trailers and behind-the-scene videos that really open your eyes to the magnitude and scale of the whole movie. The full stop-motion movie was shot in 3D, the final product is so amazingly fantastic that I can't even tell that it's stop-motion. They made hundreds of doll heads in every possible expression along with the in between of expressions!

Anyways, you need passwords to enter the site, and each password will bring you to a different video, pretty interesting shit and they are ALL worth watching. If you're too lazy to guess the passwords, there's a list below.

A Rush of Blood to the Head

Listening to The Scientist by Coldplay

I've had the scientist on loop all day and night. Mei told me off for it.

mei: coldplay only wants make u cry
mei: that's their sole aim
mei: i actually read this review once of snow patrol, saying how their songs are so understatedly emo, like, before they just about to make u sob, they hold back, whereas coldplay just charges right over the edge and sticks a knife in your heart
[Ade]: true
mei: haha
mei: its like, cry NOW
[Ade]: HAHAHAHAHAHAH

I don't know what I'd do without my friends.

Nobody said it was easy
It's such a shame for us to part
Nobody said it was easy
No one ever said it would be this hard

Neon Knights

Listening to street justice by mstrkrft






I am always pleasantly surprised when I read an article that tells me exactly what I am - a sheep. Trends have always amazed me, especially when I consider myself above them. Because I might discover a practically unheard-of band or a cool new dj today and tomorrow it's in Catalog, along with an article about how the indie and electro scene has never been closer and is on the verge of being power-blended together. So how did I come to have a playlist full of electro bands and djs? No one told me to go listen to them, yet it happened to me and it happened to everyone else. It's effing amazing, the mechanics of trends.

Anyways, with my fairly juvenile love of all kinds of techno, trance, eurodance and electro, coupled with my incessant - and sometimes anal - affection for album art AND my infant-like attraction to bright colours, I have come to be a proud owner of this smashing playlist and I would like to recommend them all to you guys, though I don't doubt that you may already have them all. I want to share the love!

On a side note, today is the first day of my life that I've ever bought - and owned - my very own insurance (no one else valued my life enough to get it for me ): Well, if you don't count travel insurance or the shitty medi-shield garbage. I am now insured for everything from losing an eyeball - hurhur creameye - to going insane and shitting all over myself (i highly recommend the c&c boys to sign up for this one). I can even claim for medical expenses if i go to lunway sagoon and fall off an inflatable tube and scratch my knee or fall off my bicycle because i was adjusting my panties! Awesome eh? And all for $21 a month! shioookkk! I'm gonna be living on the edgier from now on. So if any of you guys have a sudden and compelling urge to stab me in the vadge or run me over with a monster truck, please go right ahead cause IT'S ALL GOOD!

Album list in order:

1. Goose - Bring it On
2. Teenage Bad Girl - Cocotte
3. Para One - Epiphanie
4. Does It Offend You, Yeah? - You have no idea what you are getting yourself into
5. Soulwax - Most of the Remixes
   
6. Cassius - 15 Again
7. The Infadels - Universe In Reverse
8. MSTRKRFT - The Looks
   
9. The Presets - Apocalypso
10. The Presets - The Beams
11. Chromeo - Fancy Footwork
12. Digitalism - Digitalism
13. Cut Copy - In Ghost Colours
14. Cut Copy - Bright Like Neon Love
15. Santogold - Santogold
    
16. Yelle - Pop-up

Happy diu-diu-diu-ing!

Mavis: EH HAHAHAHAH I DIDN'T NOTICE I ADDED NO. 6 ALR!
Jules: ya i know fuck i'm becoming Paju

Me Me Meme

Brilliant ad by TWBA Vancouver [via]

SO, here's 6 not-so-fascinating facts about me:

1. I am obsessed with buying things that have no use to me (just in case I might need it one day).
2. I have a tin of ashes from my cigarettes, I pledged to quit when it's full.
   It's almost half-full now.
3. I think I might shrivel up and die if I went for a month without Asian food.
4. I often fantasize about running away and not telling anyone so that I can live by the moment.
5. I sometimes like to eat Bovril out of the jar. Mixed with my best friend's mum's famous chilli sauce.
   
6. [EDIT] HAHAHAHAHA YES I CAN'T COUNT AWESOME! HOKAY 6. I am extremely nice and friendly to the maid who cleans our office once a week because I feel guilty for being a bitch to the maid who cleaned my house when i was growing up.
   

Tagged! I'm officially tagging my most loved friends, Joo, Moo and Poo. And whoever else read this.

Rules! There are too many.. just pass it on (:

Josh Keyes

This is going to be a long post because this guy, Josh Keyes, is just so brilliant. I really want to share his work here but there were just too many out of a massive gallery to pick from.










On a really shallow level, i just love how he dissects things and serves it to you like a slice of pie. But I think the most moving thing about his work is how he uses simple things like a slab of water, an animal, a piece of earth and a bit of man-made debris and puts them together with such empathy and in a way that no one has ever imagined just to show us how beautiful nature is and what we're doing to it.



The man himself, Josh Keyes. I was so moved by his work that when I found out his prints were for sale at USD400 a pop I was ready to buy one on the spot. Unfortunately they were already sold out.
):

If you have the time you should definitely drop by his gallery to view the rest of his set. All of the above are under the paintings section.

Yet Another Beautiful Video

Something that I know you guys will appreciate.



found off Yimmys Yayo.

Lily Piyathaisere: Thanks! I love your blog.. i'm a subscriber.
Mavis: Dude tt's cool shit man.. do they do it every episode?

Get Giffy

There's something so mesmerizing about good GIF animations. I just can't tear my eyes away from them!

And while we're on the topic of things on loop, this video titled Timesculpture is a new ad by Toshiba that completely blew my mind away.. it was shot with TWO HUNDRED Toshiba Gigashot Cameras! Timesculpture uses ground-breaking new technology that's evolved straight out of the Matrix and an awesome style reminiscent of Feist topped with Crystal Castles for a soundtrack. It is srsly a must-watch (MUST I SAY!).



On a third note, I just remembered another must-watch video. Now tt I've gotten stop-motion, time-lapse, tilt-shift and loopy videos out of my system, there is just one left - Super slow-mo. Schwepps did an amazing ad a few months back with - at the time - new technology that involves water balloons popping slowed down to 2000 frames per second! It's just pretty damn cool when you get to see a ball of water floating in mid-air. Please bear with me, you will not regret watching this video:

Big and Beautiful

I was searching for some stock images with my keywords set as 'blonde wood'. This is what I found:



This Australian girl takes self-portraits and posts them up on deviantArt. She has some very beautiful photos in her gallery, such as this to which somebody commented, 'You are Really pretty. And beautiful pose too!'. After I spent 10 minutes browsing through her photos and full-appreciating her beauty, I decided to share this wonderful collection with my colleague. Her immediate response was to send me this:



I felt like I had stumbled upon a christmas catalogue for suckling pigs.

Pinball

If I were to be obsessed with videos, it would be only for brilliant stop-motion videos like the ones from eatPES:

My personal favourite: Western Spaghetti



and The Human Skateboard. srsly amazing shit.



and time-lapse videos. Wait.. lets throw in tilt-shift too!

Six Feet Under

Every episode starts with a death.

Six Feet Under. My first impression was how interesting it was to look at the life of a family born into the funeral business. It really struck me how a show full of relationships, humour and (straight & gay) sex could bring out death, loneliness and loss in such profound ways.

It is an incredibly deep film. It opened my eyes and made me think about the life I live. It made me realise how little we really know - and treasure - about the ones that are closest to us. It is so terribly easy to look them in the eye and pretend that nothing is wrong. It is so easy for us to not notice that they are hurting. Because we don't want to face the fucked up thoughts we have. We just dream of brittle things, pretend that this is the life that we really want, run towards what we believe will make us happy, blissfully ignorant of the fact that we run towards shit. How many of us will really grow old and say we were happy with the lives we had?

The truth is, we're all just afraid of being alone. We're willing to close an eye and take the suffering that comes with the people we surround ourselves with. And we'll bitch and whine about them and think about all the shitty things about them but we'll never leave, because we're just too scared.

I guess I've come to a point in my life where I've realised how alone I am. In the thoughts that I would never share. It is so easy to realise that even when there are people all around me, they are not really there. I'm not sure if it's all worth it, and I'm not sure of what the point is when I have already seen. Maybe I am just like the rest, chasing rainbows.

I miss being a part of a real family.

Obama Force One

Listening to Video Clash by Marshall Jefferson

I must say that I'm getting a little sick of all the Obama talk. I mean I support him and all and i'm glad he won but the whole world just can't stop talking about him. Even the people who don't have a say. But I guess to be fair, whatever happens to the States affects the rest of the world.

Anyways, the only thing i have to say about his campaign is that it's pretty amazing how he captured the hearts of the youth. Nearly every American design site had some form of Obama periphernalia; Obama posters, Obama t-shirts, Obama everything. And I just wanted to share the most brilliant and touching one I've come across:



Congratulations, Barack, lets hope the world doesn't start hating you tomorrow.

Brand New!

Listening to Last Words by Travis




Pepsi re-designed their logos in a very undesireable way. Rationalised as 'various types of smiles/grins' - which i think are butt-fucking ugly and kind of resemble melty-faced smiles - and they've also thrown in spanking new bottle designs. They've practically handed all of their customers over to Coke.

Here is what others have to say about their new bottles: 'The pepsi bottles sure do resemble wrinkly penis' - Brand New follower.

Gotta love it. Image & full article can be found here.


P/S: My new blog layout is up. Just grabbed one of Blogger's ready-made templates and put a little bit of life into it. Hopefully this'll motivate me to blog more.

I Heart C&C

Listening to Trojan Horse by Bloc Party

After a nice enjoyable trip to Taiwan, I came back and had a fun and full of shit day with Moo, Bee & WM. Here are some reasons why i fucking love c&c.


Ade: Eh guys! In Taiwan I went to this place called HELL VALLEY! It's a fucking hot hot spring. Like 90 degrees!
WM: But we belong there. I bet we can just wade in and the water will turn into lava and we'll all just be like, 'Ok what, it's not that hot.'
Mavis: HAHAHAHAHHA ya but all our hair will just melt off.
Ade: Not bad what, then i'll have a smooth cunt.
Mavis & WM: HAHAHAHAHAHAH

WM: So you seriously want to go the Heaven?
Bee: Ya
WM: But we're all going to hell.
Bee: It's ok, I'll send you guys e-vites to come visit me.
Ade: Ok, we'll send up balls of fire.
WM: HAHAHAHAHHAHA

WM: Whatever lor Bee, you're going to hell with us. You laughed at a midget.
Bee: No the bible doesn't say that you'll go to hell for laughing at a midget.

WM: Is there a church for midgets?
Bee: No, midgets don't go to church.
Ade & WM: HAHAHAHAHAHAHHA

WM: I wonder if gays will really go to hell cause they're gay.
Ade: No lah, i don't think midgets will go to hell.
WM: HAHAHA I SAID GAYS. WHY THE FUCK WOULD MIDGETS GO TO HELL?!
Ade: Cause they are midgets ... and they don't go to church.
WM & Bee: HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHA

After ordering ice cream at Swensons, WM couldn't finish his sundae.
WM: Bee, you want some of my fudge?
Bee: AHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA FUCK NO.


As usual, we've just accumulated 812372361274615416 more hell points.

Yimmy's Yayo

Came across this pretty cool tilt-shift style video called Beached from Keith Loutit on Vimeo.

Something I stumbled upon

I see this as mavis' future, except in furry yellow.



It's quite disturbing how the daughter is fondling her dad's penis.
