CURRENT MISSION

To kill John Connor, Leader of the Human Resistance

ABOUT ME

I'm a musician and a big fan of Hard Rock & Metal.
I served my National Service as a Tank soldier
(Heavy Metal indeed, haha!!)
I serve myself with good food and beer!

PHILOSOPHY

Singapore's really a result-driven country, most people study their ass off from the age of 4 until 20, take 2 years in National Service and then continue studying until 25 years old only to work in a job they don't like and receive a salary that is too low to even buy their own property...

So the saying goes "the young man doesnt have the money, while the old man doesnt have the strength"... I just finished my National Service and is intending to spend what money i saved over the last 2 years to travel North America..

I don't want to tell my kids in the future that daddy went to university straight after coming out of the army, and worked in a job for the next 30 years raising you kids up, and now that it's 2041, it's time for me to travel the world... nope, that's happening right now in 2011...

Teach, Learn, Share

"They say that music is a universal form of language. I beg to differ; it is a language but not a universal language. Take South Indian music and compare it with Scandinavian music, they probably won't understand each other..." ~ a little food for thought...
