Caryn, put your damn artwork back up; it was cool! Also, my two favourite songs of the week are: Mouthful of Diamonds by Phantogram (so glad JP sent me this! :) ) and I’m a Lady by Santogold (roommate was playing it a few days ago, so catchy). Thought Phantogram’s album cover was pretty cool; mainly cause those yellow circles remind me of the spherulites that form when you...

The Strange Boys
The Strange Boys are a band I heard in the Felix office here. They’re from the US and have been about since 2001. I quite like their song Be Brave. In other news, I think that by trying to fix my iPhone I have completely fucked it up. Fuuuuck. -Holly

Metric
Acoustic versions of Help I’m Alive and Gimme Sympathy: Brilliant acoustic versions and good video quality too =] Also have you heard of Combat Baby and Dead Disco? I was obsessed with those songs back in 10th grade (still are haha!) Edit:: found the acoustic version of Monster Hospital, it’s great too! - Caryn

We'll make only quick decisions,
and you’ll just keep me in the waiting room. I can’t believe Udy, Jenny and I got trashed at a UWCSEA alumni event with Mr. Whitely and Dave Shepherd there.. Oh well. Free beer and wine, no complaints over here. -Holly P.S - I quite like the new layout, Caryn :) P.P.S - ‘And all the while I’ll know we’re fucked and not getting unfucked soon’ indeed, Diogo.

Triplet of Stars
Changed the layout to one of cool stars in space, my desktop background is of another as well! Lately I’ve been obsessing and spending hours just staring at images of stars, they are beautiful. Today I saw a line of 3 stars in the sky, alongside a moon that looked like the Cheshire Cat’s grin (yellow teeth) just as I was walking home through this park bit with pretty trees and a long...

Suddenly every machine stopped at once
This week I have had: -Quantum phys lectures -Chemistry thermo/kinetics lectures -Biology lectures -Economics lectures (from 2-4pm today) How confuzzling. Also, I had a dream that had Flo Rida’s ‘Low’ as background music -_-” It was pretty weird. I also dreamt that I lived in Manhattan and had this awesome apartment (yes, I was an ‘upper eastside-er’) and...

Back to square fucking one. Or not. Who knows? Actually, I think I’m better now so the emotional fallout should be minimal. In fact, it has been. Just need to distance myself and not entertain thoughts of things that are not a possibility. Think positive! -Holly

I've been Karen O-ed
Brilliant concert! Shame about being 4 stories away from Karen O, when they come back to Singapore again I’m definitely buying front row tickets. I’m still hooked on KO fever, I keep replaying the YYYs over and over again even though I need to start being ‘prepared’ for the Killers =] Anyways here are some photos from the concert stolen off Greenhorn production’s...
