MONDAY

this of a local music forum..


"if theres one thing which "rocker, extreme musicians, ______(fill in the blank with your prefered cool term)" need to to understand, its that the art and music scene refered by the mainstream media and stuff, usually has nothing to do with us.

Basically you are on your own and should be looking to infiltrate into the system and work within it, to carve out something on your own and not expecting them to do something for us. Or at least look for people who have the same idea and work together... "

so true

MONDAY

Its probably 2-3 something in the morning

holidays start this week, thank god. i can finally not attend classes legally. hahaha!!

didnt play at the showcase on saturday, cause of some internal difficulties and my voice. and im rly sick of dragging my guitar out the door so often already so yeah, the band's taking a break till after our exams at least.

we're coming back this time with more original material!! hopefully.

the weekend was spent mostly studying, today was slightly more productive, though it was a demolarizer of sorts. i was referring to the answers for every math question without even finishing it. damn im so lazy i should just stop bringing out my book of answers next time!!

hopefully ill be able to get the train up and runnin' again during this week and do well for the promos!!after that its all play baby, screw chinese a levels and pw!! wait no,

screw them for 2 weeks after promos!! i need my break and im going to get it.

first day of holidays tomorrow (today)time to..

kick some ass,

run my ass off,

study till my brains blow out and..

STOP THINKING ABOUT THE SBC FINALS DAMMIT

SATURDAY

wow friday was such a mess and such a big fucking mistake.

but not on our part thats for sure

one thing i can take back on our "dedication"/"performance"/"tribute"/"insult"/"whatever" you call our useless 10 minutes on stage on friday is the lack of development in maturity of victorians.

sure they may not be there to see 3 motherfucking hard guys who actually made masks to surprise you people and who were actually looking forward to the "performance", they may not be into rock music, they may have some hearing difficulty which instead of hindering their hearing ability, actually enchances it such that they cover their ears at any screeching solo, storming bassline, or insane drum beats which we are played at soundcheck at.. a tenth of our usual stage volume.

but at least show some respect goddammit and some fucking support for your own victorians! i dont expect all of you to sing and dance along to the songs. but you could stand up if a guy like me has the balls to ask you too infront of the whole school, cause god knows how much money ill need to give you to get your pussy-ass even up on stage.

and i learnt that i also have nothing else to prove to you useless, plastic, gossiping assholes. i mean, the HOD of ARTS can come up and say that we suck when we get..

a) a sound system which i believe i can overpower solely with the power of my vocal cords and the blessing of god

b)amps the size of my penis (wow okay thats big, no maybe not!!)

c)a mic stand that keeps shifting the mic, so i have to keep readjusting my head
p.s if it looks like i was bobbing to the music, get this straight i definetly wasnt.

d)and finally, the shittiest crowd that i ever have and probably ever will play too in my entire lifetime.

i mean, even ANGLICAN was better, though not by much.

2 fucking set backs in the space of 6 days for the machine that (a few) people know as polarix. but guess what dear vjc, im not afraid to bitch and say my part since you have obviously said yours. so yes i know i probably aint going to do another show in vjc again, maybe unless you actually bother to RENT a good SOUND SYSTEM (if you even know what that is), fire the hod of arts (i dont even know her name but i know she sure is fat as hell) and for christ sake, our dear supporters please make yourselves heard.

so yes im motivated as hell, i got a new spunk in my step, i want the band to do well so that we can show these plastic victorians just what they're missing out on.

on a lighter note, spent time off today to study with da gang/hood/simpang dudes and julia at parkway. it was refreshing, a good session though not a long one.

been reading scar tissue by mr anthony himself!! its a great book and ive never been hooked on such a book before. haha i think i know who to lend it to in about 20+ days time hahaha.

god bless!

SUNDAY

Just posted this on our myspace at www.myspace.com/polarixsg ....


"wow wow wow..
2nd post niggas.



fuck yesterday, i thought it was our best 12 minutes on stage. Im sure many people had fun!!

im obviously bummed out that we didnt win, but thats all good cause della madre totally kicks some seriously ass as well. we're still great friends!! (haha nick pool sibei zai) so yes, all the best to della and us. Hopefully we'll make it big.. someday!!

but.. i just had to comment on something. So much for having 1 whole sound in the whole competition?did anyone else change they're sound drastically. i dont think so! why say it to us just cause we're a metal band! and yes.. raining blood is by METALLICA NO? HAHAHHA that really cracked me up im really sorry if i sound bitchy or whatever.

wow and master of puppets, disciple, DIE BY THE SWORD and RAINING BLOOD was boring? hahahahah!!! i think maybe some people just dont listen to enough of metal thats why they dont know the songs, they dont know when to FUCKING SCREAM and they dont know that they are supposed to go crazy! not sit in their chairs like pussies eating on their cupcakes and drinking their coke/sprite/beer/whatever!

yeah but whatever, judges decision is final so im cool. im just sad about the way they went about it.

"you guys are super tight, but all i hear is one sound."

haha thats all you can say?im sorry if all metal songs sound the same (to you).

haha thing is, we kicked so much ass we must've made an impact somewhere to someone. thanks to everyone who came down. we'll be taking a break for now, see you fuckers when promos end!



"FLY THE METAL FLAG TO DEATH!"



if you're here to see spandex, fucking eye make up and all that shit. and the words rock n roll baby in every fucking song..

THIS AINT THE FUCKING BAND!!

we came here to kick some ass so ARE YOU FUCKING WITH US BITCHES?"


hahahah i guess that basically sums up everything!we'll be back, kicking and alive bitches. after all, we rather be our own dogs than someone elses. so be ready people, soon we'll discard our promo-nerdy spectacles and come crashing down on all you assholes again!!

till then, time to study!

SATURDAY

School yesterday was really tiring. Skipped econs and abit of pw ( only hahaha) so i guess im okay hahaha!! gotta buck up so bad on econs though.

2 tests next week, chemistry (ALL THE WAY TO FKING ALKANES WTF) and econs (OMFG ALL THE WAY TO FKING MARKET STRUCTURE OMG). First real tests since midyears so hopefully, ill get used to it haha.

Polarix is jamming tomorrow, we're doing slayer.. i dont even know why we're trying that i dont even like it. Oh well, i dont control the band, i hope no one does. Its not about what we like, but its about what we play best. like fuck i love pop and red hot chilli peppers can we play that? i love scars by papa roach, i love snow (hey oh), i love leona lewis. but can we play that? hell no. i dont think all of us can get that point.

and so much for "cutting down". ive repeatedly exceeded my quota.i dont exactly know why, it's just a natural thing now, something that i wish i still have control over.

damn, math really sucks. i forgot tons on transformation. gotta go study, fucking learn some slayer songs that i dont even like, gotta do chem e assessment, gotta reply bec's letter, gotta go learn lyrics, gotta learn how to sing the lyrics properly.

wtf

THURSDAY

Damn, why cant i be like micheal phelps?

i used to be able to study well. i used to be so frickin motivated like how that phelps dude is about winning 8 crazy gold medals. now i cant even get myself home early, cant even wake up in time for school. I just couldnt take it today, so i left around 12.45. My mum told me that she wouldnt want me to leave. I dont even know why i called her to ask if i can leave, i had already made up my mind

and i havent played guitar in 4 days, the finals is in 9 days and we are jamming in 3 days and wow, i havent even changed strings or learn the new slayer songs that we probably would be playing for the finals.

gawddamit, jc sucks balls man. thats all the singaporean education system makes you do, mug till you die and the one with the best stamina wins. theres no creativity at all, its all about who spends the most time studying studying studying..

cant wait to get to army and then university. god knows how long i'll take!


i better learn the songs by sunday!ive never felt this fucked up and low on confidence about polarix before. damn this sucks

Sunday

Paranoid,

im really paranoid. About alot of things. From studies, to my phonebill (hahah rebecca im just kidding) to the things some people are doing to me.

I really dont know if you genuinely didnt know that i would feel so.. pissed/angry/infuriated whatever or if you just didnt care about what i thought about the whole situation. You knew what i wanted and yet, this shit still happens.

off that, i got my new guitar. a washburn ps500 (KISS BABEH) plus $1800 topup for my gibson lespaul standard. This deal brings an end to a really uneventful spell with the gibson. I can honestly say ill probably never buy another gibson again unless i have the $$ and the balls to go and mod it haha. Looking for hopefully a great esp/jackson fixed bridge guitar. KING V HERE I COME!!!

school the past week has been.. really slack as hell. On tuesday the guys stayed over in school. Macus,lum,fauzan,suren (orite boss HAHA),me,cephas and of course.. mr-im-so-kewl-angmoh anders HAHA.here are some photos of our adventures.. hehe

SHOWCASE AT *scape youth park YESTERDAY WAS SICK SHIT MAN!

it was the most fun ive had in a pretty long time on stage!

school's been alright.. H3 is such a bitch seriously i thought i could handle it but i guess i may be wrong. motherfucking angles blows man.

SBC semis last weekend at the arena went fucking well. at the end of our song we got people who didnt want to stand up to sing SEEK AND DESTROY and nana literally touched my nipple on stage. what more can you ask for? :D

yesterday we played seek and destroy and the four horsemen! we didnt practise at all before that and couldnt even decide which song to play. in the end we found out that it was possible to play both songs and so...

WE JUST WACK BOTH AND DAMN IT CAME OUT PRETTY FUCKING GOOD!!!

thanks to yunsong (for coming for both the semis and showcase), serena, chesterlum, bfoo (owe you some food!hehehe), dom, wee yuan, vas and edmund for coming down whether it was last week at the semis or yesterday at the showcase!
