Can bands nowadays get any more *original* than this?
For those familar with songs from the Canadian band Nickelback, click the link below:

You'd be amazed by how similar the 2 songs sound!
Same melody.
Same rhythm.
Same length of song.
Even the chorus starts at the same time!?!??!
I sometimes feel pretty dissappointed with popular bands (that are deemed *talented* , no less) unabashly reshuffling their OWN songs to produce similar catchy songs and making tons of money out of it :S. But regardless of how similar the songs are, people still listen to these recycled tunes and fans continue to show undying love for these bands no less...
(This is something I can relate to since I am a die-hard Goo Goo Dolls fan *wink*)
Conclusion: There's ALWAYS market for generic songs ;-) Afterall, isn't imitation the sincerest form of flattery? Hahaha..
Honestly, I have nothing against Nickelback in general. In fact, I have just become a Nickelback convert recently thanks to the one song that I can listen to whole day long...

Getting older...
Sometimes it scares me on how quickly time flies...I am officially 24 now *ouch*. Can't believe I am hitting mid-20s soon. Gulp...shall not think about it until next year. Hahaha (am in denial mode, as usual :P)
Anyway I had a great time with my friends yesterday and I think I have never consumed so much alcohol in one night in my life. Yeah, I think I am gonna avoid drinking for the time being because I don't like the idea of not being in control ;-) But I had a great and fun time so it was all worthwhile. Thanks to everybody who came for dinner and drinks => Annie, JJ, Car, Siu Mun, Karen, El, Fwu Ching, Dot, CH => you guys are the best! :D
On a silly subject, I really wanted to strangle JJ just now. How could he say that the person on the left below (who is my *current* obsession) looks like the weirdo Zach from Desperate Housewives!??!?!???!?!?!!?? Can ANYONE spot any similarities!?!?!?!? *extremely annoyed*

Nightmare is over :-)...
Its 2.41am and I've finally finished moving my stuff to the new place. Thankfully the process was less painful than I thought thanks to all my good friends who helped out. You all are the best => Car, Annie, JJ!!!!!
HOWEVER, being the internet freak that I am, I am still living in my old place (praying for the new internet to be set up before I move :P)...feels a bit empty though. Ah well....it did hold some nice memories i.e. Christmas party, late night drinking sessions, *seng ji* and bridge sessions... :D
Alright, I need to shower and sleep now...will ramble more soon ;-)
*Listening to Sleep Well Tonight by Fightstar* <= Hell, yeah!

Isn't this the best way to start the weekend?
Btw for those who don't know Malay, the song title below will be a BIG hint ;-)
