I think Criss Angel is really hot : )


Trina and I left for Singapore on Friday night by train . Why train ? .
Due to the lack of funds obviously & because it was hella cheap . RM64 , to and fro .
Journey was about 10 hours .

Trina ; First things first,GUESS WHICH ONE IS RHEMA'S? Lucky guesser gets a prize.
Shuttup TRINA -_--"
Make me. =)

Train was honestly not that bad . I mean , we had pretty okay leg space .
The only thing disturbing was the noisy kids and mosquitoes , oh and the weird smell that only Trina seemed to have smelt :P Smellyfish .

Reached Singapore after about a trillion stops at 9ish . Took a cab to Andrew's place .


Refreshed ourselves and the three of us headed out to explore Singapore a little .
Okay , maybe not Singapore .. more like two malls in Singapore .
Esplanade & Marina Mall .
Why`d we go there instead of the oh so famous Orchard Road ? No Max Brenner's there / No Mrs. Fields .I ended up not getting Max Brenner .
See , three days before Friday i was puking my brains out due to some viral infection .
So i didn't really wanna consume chocolate when i was having the worst stomach ache ever at the time .
I did however , get Mrs. Fields and so did a very happy Trina .Had lunch at some Italian place , walked to Marina Mall .
Trina went all paparazzi on me for some reason . SNAPsnapSNAP .





They had some pole dancing thing over in Marina Mall . very risque performance :P



Andrew was getting tired & my entire being was feeling like shit.
Oh , here's a picture to demonstrate Andrew's niceness :)



Went BACK to Andrew's place . Trina kept asking me if i still wanted to go to the concert because i looked like i was going to die or something , i don`t know .
I TOLD YOU I WOULD BE FINE AFTER AWHILE TRINA : D

Sweet child .

Next destination : Pavillion , which was SUPPOSEDLY near Changii Airport according to the map .
It somehow didn't feel so far away . Reached pretty early so i took pictures of our surroundings .
Decided to grab something to eat before the concert .




The venue was really , really small .
The opening acts for FFAF were A Vacant Affair , Caracal , and Astroninja .
When we went in , Astroninja was performing . Right after that , a few vj's from a local Singapore radio station came out and entertained the crowd .
They had a small competition , the Air Guitar competition .
Chose 5 people outta the audience .
Two white chicks , one dude from Indonesia , and 2 singaporeans .
They all had really odd nicknames given by the DJ's .
I personally really really like , Lil Pee Pee ( the indonesian dude) .
There were a bunch of white guys behind us screaming " LIL PEE PEE ! " and a bunch of malay dudes calling the white girls "white trash" .
Just so happened , the DJ named one of the girls " Big Kahuna`s " .
And the white dudes behind us started screaming " TAKE IT OFFFFF !! SUCK MY COCKKK "

-___-""

Very nice .

Indonesian dude was the winner \w/ He crowd surfed and air guitar`ed . Mmmm .
Soundcheck dudes kept screwing with the crowd . Meanies . about 10 minutes after 8.
Ironically , everyone in the crowd was dressed in black . You know , for a Funeral ? Gettit? Yeap .
The crowd got really impatient and started chanting " Funeral!Funeral!Funeral!"
...then most awesome sound was heard .

The intro to Into Oblivion .[Nolah,it was Queen's We are the champions first remember.Trina here,Haha.]

Riight , we are the champions . DAMN POTONG I TELL YOU . ANYWAY , Into The Oblivion started and the crowd went INSANE and started pushing and moshing . Including us . The moshpit was fucking crazy . We got pushed into it and joined in . Girls and guys started pushing,punching ,swaying around .

Fucking crazy but so worth the pain .Behind us , they formed another circle mosh pit as well .


They played ; ( not in order)
I don`t think i missed out any songs .


Walk Away
The Great Wide Open[WOOOOO!!!!!!!!!I'm damn kelefeh.]
Escape Artists Never Die
Juneau
The End Of Nothing
Roses For The Dead
Bullet Theory
Streetcar
She Drove Me To Daytime TV
History

They unfortunately didn't play Drive, Red Is The New Black .







It was legendary fun , one of the best concerts ever honestly . right next to muse and slipknot.
Funeral For A Friend had really good crowd interaction . Trina and I managed to push our way infront . From being RIGHT at the back , we ended up RIGHT in front . About 3 people away from touching the band members jeans . You can tell from the pictures too :D

Didn't get to take ANY good videos . My camera fell apart half way .
Thank goodness i managed to slot everything back in - haha .
I was really really afraid that my phone would drop on the floor cuz i had it in my pockets . Didn't bring a bag . And i heard phones dropping on the floor .
Thankfully EVENTHOUGH,
we were moshing && my phone didn't drop . My poster , however. Was ripped .
The autograph was still intact . The bottom of the poster got all scrunched .
But it`s okaaayy . I think it has character . Hahah .


At the end , Ryan threw his drumsticks . And the girl infront of us got it .
Trina was really really close to getting it . And i shouldve just pushed that girl and grabbed it from the floor . But .. i don`t know why i didnt -__-"

Blahh .

After the concert , Trina and I were extremely , EXTREMELY dehydrated . But we couldnt find any stores . So we just got a cab and went back to Andrew's . Ordered Mcdonalds .
Fell dead asleep after watching snippets of Jarhead .

Woke up at sevenSHARP . Train was at 8.40 , got ready and went to the train station .
I think it was about 8.30 while buying drinks , Trina asked me
" Rhema , where's my bag ?"
" Huh , what bag ? Your holding it !"
" No..my blue bag "
" Wait .. WHAT ? *goes to the seating area* Oh..MY GOD DID YOU LEAVE IT IN THE CAB?"
"...."
"I dont remember you bringing it in the cab though .."

(Shut up,it happens!.....Trina here.)

*both of us burst out laughing and i called Andrew to check if her bag was outside his place .
It was .


ZZZ .
So after we settled the commotion , we rushed to the train boarding area .
ONLY TO FIND THE FUCKING TRAIN FUCKING LEFT .

And we were about 3 minutes late . THREE minutes . I swear to god i wanted to cry but i laughed insanely instead . Both of us did -__-"
We handle sticky situations like , really well .
Went to the counter to buy tickets for the next train . Which just HAD to be at 1pm . First class was the only thing available .

Reluctantly both of us bought is as we had zero choice . $68 , which is approx Rm156pointsomething.

Blah , we had about four hours till the next train . We sat down on the seats at the waiting area like poor musicians , talked about the funniest things .
Andrew came to drop off Trina's bag after church . Boarded the train ON TIME . Even the guards kept laughing at us . Grrrr .

"First class" with stinky shitty toilet.







Overall , it was a trip to Singapore VERY well spent . Despite the accidents and mishaps . Funeral For A Friend was awesome beyond awesome .The company was kickass too ;)
Thanks Tan for the accommodation and entertainment . I like your Maria :D


CHEERIO!
Hahahaha,I'm freakin' kelefeh.
