So here I sit. Staring at the monitor. Entertaining The-Voice-In-My-Head.

I’m sure all of you know what I’m talking about. That tiny little ‘being’ that resides in your head. The opinionated one. The one who has the balls to say whatever that is on it’s mind. (Pretty mind-boggling isn’t it? A being that lives in your mind has a mind of it’s own.)

So yeah.. The-Voice-In-My-Head popped up just now. While Rauzan, Shino and me were having a very serious discussion. Rauzan was going on about how I should update this cute little blog of ours. I listened for about 3 seconds before I zoned out, staring and nodding sporadically at Rauzan to put up some semblance of attention. The-Voice-In-My-Head took this as a signal for it to make a grand entrance.

I then started another discussion with The-Voice-In-My-Head about politics, love, the current financial turmoil and Zoe Tay‘s Mama Mammaries while having a discussion with Rauzan and Shino about theCrazy88. So if you were to bump into me and ask, “Hey Ishmael, so what’s upcoming for theCrazy88?”, I’d probably go on about how I’m grateful that Zoe Tay‘s mammaries are inflating when the economy’s deflating. Something to cling on to (no pun intended, teeheehee.) amidst the doom and gloom.

But one thing I do know is that we’re performing at 16Bars at O Bar this Thursday! I can bore you with all the details, shower you with long boring-arsed descriptive passages, impress you with the extensive and cheeapdsdf jshfuafshgasjasfag.. I know I’m starting to lose you already. So here’s my quick run-through as to what to expect on Thursday.

  • BOOZE!
  • BABES!
  • BEATS!
  • theCrazy88!
  • theCrazy88!
  • theCrazy88! theMotherFunkin`Crazy88!
  • Siroc! (Amsterdam-based Rapper)
  • BOOZE! BABES! BEATS! BEATS! BEATS! DEAR LORD HELP US BEATS BEATS BEATS! theCrazy88, BITCH!

Doors fly off the hinges at 2200HRS and will remain so till 0300HRS. O BAR! 16 BARS! THURSDAY! THURSDAY!

Now you probably know why Rauzan and Shino handle all the Public Relations work. Nevertheless, we’d love to see you there on Thursday night. The first person to come up to me and whisper, “Jamban Mana? (Where’s the toilet?)”  into my ear will get to see me take off my shirt.

With that said, I have completed what is required of me, which is to update the blog, and now, I’m free to jump over to Blogwars! for some quality entertainment.

Till Then,

Ishmael.

P.S.

Shino and me would like to extend our heartfelt congratulations (?) to Rauzan and Ain (BB!) for surpassing the 2-year mark! Shino and me would be lucky enough if we can get a girlfriend and make her stay for 2 weeks. 2 years is awesome!
