And I'll keep you
A daydream away
Just watch from a safe place
So I never have to lose

Let's make it happen. Get unsigned bands signed,by helping them with a fanbase, and signed bands into Asia. There's good music out there, and we ALL need it. So knock yourselves out.

Here's to 2011.
Hi everyone. So I just bawled my eyes out watching a video (not the one above)... but the ones below. But I was inspired to write here because of Kieran's video. As you may or may not have known, when I was 14-ish, I did think of suicide. It was a very very difficult part of my life.. I'm not proud of it, I don't talk about it a lot because that 14-year old is truly a different person from the 21-year old me today. I had family problems, school wasn't a great place to be because of all the peer pressure and was only worsened by my really low self-esteem. I felt neglected, alone, and was in so much pain both mentally and emotionally. So what has changed? A lot of things. And while many things with the family are still unstable at times, it's good to know that I still have a family, one that truly cares for me and many other things in my life have been stable. I'm so proud that I am here today, despite going through a rough teen-hood and I truly believe that everyone you meet is a survivor in their own way. And as we enter 2012 in less than 4 hours, I do hope that no matter how hard my 2012 will be, I will always, always remember these 10 things that make me smile. 1. God I come from a family that tries to be religious. And we do not always succeed. But we try. But i think this second half of my year, I have undoubtedly neglected God. And I hope that 2012 will see my faith renewed. 2. Music This is probably the only thing that has been constant yet ever changing. I remember distinctively the band that helped get through my darkest hour. The Used. Without exaggerations, they saved my life even before God did. I have since turned to several bands like Blue who I remember listening to as I stayed over at my aunt's cos my mum wanted us out of the house. Simple Plan's Perfect seemed so surreal because it talked about my relationship with my mum to the T. Good Charlotte for telling me to "Hold on". Then there was Asteria, who I listened to the night my brother broke my heart. All Time Low for accompanying me through my train rides and my bad nights when I would cry because I didn't feel good enough that night. You Me At Six for making me believe that I was indeed "married to the music" and A Day To Remember for reminding with every song that I had to stand up for what I believed in, even if there is a whole crowd that is against me and my beliefs. 3. My dad He is my hero. My best friend. My pillar of strength. People always say that I give off this vibe that I don't need boys or that I have high standards... but it's only because I believe that there is someone out there that truly is as outstanding as my dad. And really, as a 21-year old... The only "boy" I need is my dad. If my dad went through all that he has, why can't I? 4. My 1st younger brother He can make me angry, he can poke fun at me and call me fat, and he can do every rebellious act there is in the book, but he will always be my little brother and I will defend him and his antics forever. He is so different from me and sometimes, I envy him becomes of that. 5. My littlest brother That dude can break my phone screen and yet, he'll be my favorite person all year round. He is after all, the only boy that allows me to still kiss him. He cheers me up instantly even on my worst days, when I'm worn out from school and life, and I truly believe that while the pregnancy was unplanned by the parents, he was planned by God. And God always knows what's best. 6. Mun Ling She made my secondary school life so much better. I mean, I met a lot of shady people, and I basically learnt the meaning of shady there, but she was everything but shady. She stood by me and how great is that we're best friends till today. We've grown up so much and yet, we still somehow managed to stay so close. If we ever get distant in the future, I hope she knows that she helped me become better because she was my role model. She was better than everyone else in that school. 7. Nicole Tan I'd like to believe that Nicole and I are like the biggest doofuses ever when we are together. With her I can cry, I can gossip and she just goes right along with me. Her faith in God, is admirable. And how we've managed to stay as close as we were in JC is beyond my ability to understand. Thank you for your random notes, that keep me going, your text messages when I'm down and just you. Thanks for keeping me grounded and thanks for making me believe that I am awesome as I am. You've always been a supporter of how big of a dork I am. Bless you and our dorkiness :) 8. Melissa, Siew En and Safarina You girls are like my anchors. You always hold me down. And our gatherings are always a needed break from real life because with you girls, the world is pink, full of bubbles, laughter, and people tripping, saying stupid things and auto-correct is the biggest evil thing to exist. Thank you for the laughter and thank you for sticking by me through everything. And thank you for your consistent reminders on how much I suck at Monopoly Deal. Cheers to that! 9. Shermin I think you're the first person who I could relate to. EVER. You're probably the most motivated person I have ever known. And if anyone helped me through the last semester, you did. I would like to think that we helped to make each other be better... and how we are both honest with each other is rather refreshing. You put a smile on my face because I was once told to trust only 5 people in university. And I'm proud as hell to say, you're one of them. 10. My mum Our relationship is proof that even when some thing is dysfunctional, it doesn't have to be completely bad for you. It can still be a great life lesson and it can make you a better human being. After our 28594092729 fallout of my 21 years living, it seems that you have made greater efforts to be closer to me. Never have I thought of taking a train ride with you alone from fear that we might just end up shouting at each other but we did. And that train ride has also taught me something very interesting about you and I. All the while during the train ride, you kept "pressuring" me to take the seat. You kept saying that I was "afraid" to take a seat in the train. And that was YOUR opinion. But mine was that, I didn't mind standing. I'd rather you or some other people take the seat. And while it is a poor example, fundamentally it shows how you've always kinda "pushed" me to do things. Even if it was in a bad or good way, even if it hurt me, you always pushed. And that helped me be the person I am today; opinionated and honest. Sometimes, it takes someone to constantly push you around for you to find a voice that is yours; to be loud and to stand for it. So thank you for teaching me something about us that day. And as much as I always say I don't want to be like you... I know that much of what I've learnt, is from you. So while there were many times I was angry at and with you, tonight, I want you to be the reason I smile as I look back on 2011. I'm not perfect, and I shouldn't ask for you to be. **** It is undeniable that there are many other things in life that make me smile. My grandmother, my WHOLE family, but the ones above i guess make me smile and influenced me. I feel like 2011 passed by too fast. The first third of the year was filled up by Y1S2, then the summer holidays flew by and the last third of the year was just filled with Y2S1. It all passed by way too fast. I felt like I was not able to have a grasp of the year fully and I hope that in 2012, I will have the added consciousness to have a better grasp of the year. Perhaps be more goal-oriented. But being 21 and well, going on 22, it's great to know there are still great possibilities for me, if only I would take them. I would hate to sell myself short and to fail myself. Here's to 2011, but may we all have awesome-r 2012. In whatever ways we may want it to be. Most importantly, thanks for being the important people in my life. nsyuhh |

Heard them first thanks to the Tap Tap Revenge 3 apps on IPhone fell in love with their song Autumn immediately. Signed to Fealess (think The Maine and Breathe carolina), they basically play around with the same genre of punk pop. The members are likeable especially the lead singer, but this band definately worth a listen. Just released a new video calleed We Love Like Vampires and their album title is Eyes To the Sun.I myself have yet to listen to the whole album. For now, Fave tracks: Autumn  Asteria Asteria has a mix of sounds that pretty much anyone can love. Their self-titled EP is awesome. Fave Tracks: The Taste, The Touch and A Lesson In Charades  Three-man band from Virginia and signed to an indie. they probably sound like... a generic pop/punk band (sorry, had to use the word) but there's some good quality in their songs as they are upbeat though it does take a few listen as songs like Apocalypse sounds amateurish. Fave tracks: Closer time, Goldmine Valentine Alumni
