A friend of mine once said, Yeaahh, Cause it was a monday.
It's after the weekends.
Wow what a great way to justify your reason.
So more than 3 people were suffering from moodswing yesterday,
But it doesn't matter anymore. Leave the past to History.
''The Temporary Yattata Replacement''
Yattata=Hidayat
Today, woke up early after sleeping at 330am.
Woke at 845. Haziq was shaking my body and throwing the pillows at me.
I WONDER WHY THE FUCK YOU NEVER USE YOUR FUCKING VOICE.
I didn't wake. He threw a towel at me.
Went to the kitchen, Asked maid to wake me at 9.
HAHAHA this always always Happens. Always.
So i got up, caught a glimpse of him taking his shorts off in the room to bathe.
HAHA I AM NOT GAY.
Please close the door before proceeding to undress.
Don't be so CONFIDENT =D
I laid down on the bed in the room and switched on some Disturbed from the Ipod.
And bathed in the kitchen toilet. Didnt forget my toothbrush!
Bathed, and surprisingly got out earlier than he did.
So had a curry puff and glass of tea for breakfast and Got out.
Took 98 to Shazni's place, met Hafiq on the bus.
He was early. So got off,
Ziq got 3 epok-epok Sardine and Green soya bean or something like that.
Fiq got erm, Pokka Peach tea.
AND STYROFOAM AIRPLANE.
The ones which we used to buy for like, 40cents when we were young.
Fix it together and throw it around. Lame fuck. HAHA.
So got upstairs, Fiq almost stepped on some unregconisable poo outside the 2nd storey lift.
Ooo Dangerous. Knocked on Shazni's door several times.
No answer, just about to call, He opened the door.
He looked sleepy. HAHA. So got in.
While waiting for Adam to arrive,
Played with Fiq's new airoplane. Major failure.
Couldn't fly 2meters hahah.
Set up gear and Amps.
Checked out the Bass guitar i was handed by Shaz.
Sleek and Cool black Yamaha 4-stringer.
Tested plucking. Never played bass before.
Adam arrived and Haziq didnt want to open the gate HAHAH.
Taunted him and kept saying '' You can't slap my face!''
Stupid Adam took a while to finally realise that the gate wasn't locked.
HAHA and Ziq ran away hahaha..
Shaz's house was a instrument haven.
He had three Amplifiers in his room.
And one of them was HUGE.
Big as your fridge. Only wider.
A whole drumset.
Guitars. And a bass guitar too.
And a piano in the main hall. Wow.
I wish..
So set up Etc, Played their original song, The Pain I Feel.
I didn't know a single note to play.
Told Adam to teach, but he was asking why I was playing bass.
Ziq defended, Saying adam was the one who told Ziq to bring me along as replacement.
I just told him to teach. He taught a bit, and he said,
''Okay okay, most importantly, you follow the beat''
From then on i got it. I fit in like a glove.
After that,
Played The Bleeding-Five finger Death Punch
Never wrong-Original
And, So long-Original.
Free fall by Rides again wasn't practiced cause we weren't sure of the tabs.
It got real tiring, plucking with index and middle fingers while standing for 2 hours.
Time flew by so fast.
Halfway throughout Never Wrong, while playing, Adam looked at me and gave a thumbs up.
I smiled, and felt that I had to play harder. Some sort of Motivation.
Yes, made mistakes, Especially on So Long.
Oh my God, i kept forgetting what and how to play.
Haha, perhaps it was a bit too complicated.
I'm not such a great player anyway.
So was sweating hard.
Ziq was on the bed, Lyrics book in front of him,
Singing and TEXTING while there were only instrumental parts.
THE FAN WAS DIRECTED AT HIM AS WELL.
HAHA. Extreme unfairness I dare say.
All the while, had to refer to what Adam and Hafiq were playing on their guitars.
To get an idea of what I had to play on Bass.
So practiced and practiced till about 1.
When Ziq had to leave to fetch Shira.
I wish he didn't leave as early.
So we could practice some more.
Sure, we were playing for two straight hours.
But gig's in 12 days and that isn't enough, coupled with Yat's abesenteeism.
I wish i could play more, I fitted in.
So overwhelming was the feeling that i felt like one of them,
Underlying. HAHAHA I was dreaming.
As the famous saying goes,'' Dream are not Theirs to Take.''
Does anyone need any clarification?
Took a break. Ziq Left.
Would be meeting him later.
Shazni Nudged me from the back and gave me a thumbs up.
Wow, more motivation.
I wasn't that great, But i was okay.
So Hafiq and I rocked out on guitar in the room.
I Still don't understand your equipment fiq,
That digitech Gadget you had with you. HAHA.
But i love the MARSHALL POCKET AMPLIFIER.
Awe-tastic.
Played and Sang songs with Fiq while lying down on Shaz's leopard-printed-bed.
He taught me 2 songs! Yay.
Thanks Fiq.
Played and Played till Adam, who was slacking outside with Shazni,
Came in and drummed together with us.
Ahaha played tenacious D songs,
From the Movie- Tenacious D and the Pick of Destiny.
Fiq was on guitar, Adam on drums looking cool while smoking -.-''
And i was impersonating Jables and Kage and also Beelzebob.
Haha Undescribable fun.
Stuck around for awhile before leaving at about 3pm.
Meet Ziq and Danial at Jp with Shira and her brothers.
So got out, the Poo wasn't there anymore.
But the stain was still could still be CLEARLY SEEN.
YellowishtoBrown colour. Gruesome.
Fiq threw his styrofoam 50cent plane around twice.
Failure. I threw, failure. Then he told me to leave it there!
HAHAH Might as well put 50cents at that exact same spot and leave it.
Waste of money. Haha. Poor plane.
Bought 7-up and 3 EPOK-EPOK POTATO.
Niceeeee. FUNNY INCIDENT at bus stop.
HAHA disgusting, sorry Adam and Fiq.
Watching Fiq's reaction was pricelesssss.
Funny people.
3 of us dropped of at interchange, waited for dan and ziq with shira and her bros.
They arrived super late but Nevermind =D
Fooled around with shira On the phone when she was asking where we were.
We= FS, Hafiq and Danial.
We kept saying we were at a certain place,
With dustbin, with white lights, with sweet talk, with mosaic floor etc.
HAHAHA. She hung up and appeared before we knew it.
We closed our eyes and each got a slap from her.
All laughed =)
So went to arcade,
Her little brother cried when he lost to his younger brother and the kiddy game,
'ANIMAL KAISER''
HAHAHA CUTE. Her little bro cried too when he lost to the older brother.
HAHAH cute. Protecting their pride i suppose.
Danial kept saying funny things like, '' ah balik gi teban''
HAHAHA Only we know yeah.
Hung around, had dinner at banquet.
Went home after 9.
Back to Ziq's place. Ziq sent shira.
Me and Fiq took bus home.
Too tired. Slept in bus.
Got off bus, Bade Hafiq Goodbye.
Got home. Charged Handphone.
It was time to rest, Not to sleep away.
Took toothbrush, MP3, PSP both forgot wrist cuffs -.-
Got home at 1020. =)
All after the practice at Shaz's place i was wondering about that SMALL chance that Yat would be dropped off, and I would take over for the gig this 27th.
But yat texted ziq asking for practice tomorrow, the 16th.
So yeah, i stopped dreaming after that. =)
I just felt happy to be rocking out with them.
To be a part of Underlying, for just that little more than 2hours.
Just that, and the two thumbs up that meant the world to me today.
15th December, 2009.
12 days from the Gig i was dreaming of playing in.
Once more shall it be said,
