I haven’t blog in AGES! Yeah, school started again last week and you know what that means? Yeap, back to reality, and exam results, ZOMG! 

Not to mention, I was prepared for the worst. I was dang sure I did so badly for my mid-terms compared to my earlier semester because a) I didn’t even study hard enough. b) I didn’t even cover up most of my syllabus which was needed to for certain subjects *coughbiologycough* c) The papers scared the hell outta me. 

Even my very own most fav subject in the entire world was baddddd. Yes, Additional Mathematics if you were wondering. Rawr. 

I’m already in my 2nd week now of school post-holidays. Got back all of my papers EXCEPT Biology. Go figure. And results are such a shocker! Once again, I somehow managed to pull through with A1’s for most of the subjects I’d thought I screwed up.

The result which definitely, DEFINITELY made my month was my Add Maths! Scored an A1 unexpectedly when I thought I’d be getting a B3/B4. The paper was freakishly HARD and I even had to leave out 2 questions. Thank you Lord so much, I seriously can’t thank You enough. Thank you for making the impossible seemed possible :)

Other than that, scored an A1 for English, Mod Maths, Add Maths, History(HOLYEFF!), Chemistry, Physics(DOUBLE HOLYEFF!), PE. Scored a B3 for both BM and Moral, as expected.

In other news, guess who got the new Jonas Brothers album?

OH YEAH, THIS GIRL!

Lines, Vines & Trying Times.

Bought it on the day it released here. Got the International Version too, which includes a song booklet and got my JB standup poster! WHOO!

Also, YAY for Nenek Maizatul who bought it on the same day as me. ROCK ON NENEK!

Also, my beloved soulmate/deskmate/bestie-for-life Ash heard the album and we’re both in love with it. We sing it in school, WOO! Memorized all the lyrics. We even have telepathy moments which freaks us out so badly :O

I’m a huge Niley fan now. NILEY FTW! Also, the live performance/duet of Before the Storm on the first world tour concert in Dallas, Texas was THE MAJOR BOMB! I nearly teared, the way they look at each other and they were smiling. So genuinely happy, so in love J

And Joe. He performed Much Better in Tulsa, Oklahoma and changed the lyrics from “Now I’m done with super stars” to “Now I’m done with COUNTRY stars”

I say BURN! Sorry Taylor Swift, I love you and your songs, but Joe just PONED you. Yikes.

Also, Nick’s expression at that moment? PRICELESS. He was like :O

Gotta love those boys.

Be prepared with a new LJ header. I have something in the works(actually in my head) but yeap, I got this great idea I want to put into my new header ;)

So, guess what day is it today?

Yeap. It's Monday. In Twitter, it would be known as MusicMonday, where people tweet about music recommendation.

Anywhooooo. The reason why I'm blogging is cuz I'm gonna be deprived of Internet for the next few days. I'm leaving for a holiday retreat starting from tomorrow till possibly Thursday OR Friday. And I won't have Internet till then, so yeap.

So I was thinking. I think I'm not gonna hear the LVATT song full previews when it airs on Radio Disney starting from Thursday till Monday. I think I'm gonna wait till the album releases. Like the WHOLE album OFFICIALLY releases. Not sure what date that will be, but definitely not going to listen to leaked versions or whatsoever. Yes, I'm considering Radio Disney to be leaking them D: It's unfair to the boysss! I want it to be a surprise! By the time the weekend is over, Youtube will already be flooded with their entire album. Lame.

Also, I think I'm turning into a Miley fan :O And I support Niley. Double :O

Random, I know.

I dunno, after hearing Before the Storm, I think what Nick & Miley shared could never be loss. I mean, yeah, they're over, but the chemistry's undeniably there. And I think they look sweet together :) And they dated for a full solid 2 years. That's actually long. Well, they might not be together now, but they're at least best of friends. Something which I can never get myself to do as much as I want to.

And who knows, Niley might happen in a few years' time ;)

As for Miley, I'm starting to like even more than I used to. Maybe because I stalked her too much on Twitter. She's such a genuinely nice person, and I love her as Hannah Montana. And the movie too. Also, her songs are pretty relatable ;)

Before I go, a shoutout to JOLENE who's about to view this post because I'm about to give her my blog link in a matter of seconds. Sooo, HEY THEREEEEE!

We shall stick to tweeting :)

Yeap, it's finally out. Phenomenal music video. Look at how HUGE and MIND BLOWING this world tour is gonna be. And Nick on a rotating platform with his piano. Sahhhh-weet :D

Just minor short updates which didn't really fit with the previous post.

So here marks the end of Holiday Week 1. 7 days passed by too fast. Sigh.

Anyway, just a recap of my weekend:

ASEAN selection tests were well, horrible. Great experience but the papers were just way out of the league. Especially the Maths paper. It made our Malaysian Maths look close to nothing and complete and utter crap. The paper was like Mod Maths and Add Maths combined together except a hell lot harder.  English paper was alright, the comprehension paper was definitely interesting. And the Paper 2 was just crazy. 30 minutes to write an essay, LOL! I just stared at the paper for a good 2 minutes then I started scribbling endlessly, haha. I barely had the time to compose my thoughts, so I just wrote out whatever came into my mind. In the end, that was like 2 whole pages of ramblings. And I think I was being such a hypocrite when I wrote that essay tho, but whatever anyway :)

And Day 2 of test was alright. The GA paper was quite fun. And later during the breifing, Joyce and I were just yakking and eavesdropping the 2 nerdos at the back of us. Which may I add THEY ARE SO FREAKISHLY NERDY. And that just scares us off. They were talking so loudly about some Einstein theory and speed of light and LHC. I was like...okay, seriously? Did you really have to do this in public with the other dude? Joyce and I couldn't stop giggling about it cuz we were just so amused by their overenthusiasm. LOL.

While waiting for god knows what reason we were held captive in the room, Joyce and I ended up watching an episode of JONAS on my iPod. And we even managed to watch the entire episode. So yeah, that's how long we were held captive xD We were giggling there like kids watching it.

Met a few familiar faces at ASEAN tests tho. Made a new friend also who was my deskmate during the exams AND shares the same name as me. Freaky much? :) Met Yu Heng from St Paul only at the end of Day 1, and we were so shocked to see each other! Met him again in the morning of Day 2 and he came by to chat with me and Joyce and my family before test started. My mum likes him tho, HAHA! She says he's really friendly and such, and I was like yeah. And also, met Yin Yin from KGV. And Pradeep from Bukit Mewah! And a whole bunch of Chan Wa students along with this familiar nerdy dude.

After dismissal, family and I went for lunch at Tony Roma's. Blah, I felt so crazily bloated xD Zachawie's treat though. He threw in a SD50 note for it, LOL! After lunch, we walked around for a while waiting for my movie to start. Sunway organised a Movie Carnival and there were like Star Wars lookalikes walking around. People were taking pics with Darth Vader, LOL!

ALSO, there was a Hannah Montana competition! The Hoedown Throwdown dance competition! And I nearly joined, seriously. They taught the contestants which were mainly kids the dance steps, and I was watching from the floor above. I was telling my brother that I knew the dance steps and all already, cuz i did learn them a few months ago xD And I WANTED TO JOIN THE COMPETITION! LOL. But in the end I didn't, cuz if I did, I would have to miss my movie, which would be uncool. So sad, sigh. I wanted to win the goodie bag.

Review of Hannah Montana movie in the Summer Movie post! :) Check it out there.

Yeap, that's about it. Have to wake up early tomorrow again for Bio class. And later breakfast with Bio teacher with Zachawie :)

I think I may have failed to mention that it's currently the 2 weeks break now. But yeah, this would be my last long holiday before the drilling pre-SPM begins. Oh boy, don't just I love the sound of that?

Sarcasm can kiss my arse now.

Anyway, omigosh, I can't believe my first week of holidays is about to pass by soon enough. Not really a productive week. Monday I had a group outing with the 7's! Which has been a long time since we manage to go out in an entire group. We went for movie, Night at The Museum 2 WHICH I watched for the second time. Weeru couldn't join us for movie, so she joined us for lunch instead. We ate at Kenny Rogers, it was great. I missed the days where we could sit at a table and just have some bonding time. So it was great :) And Kumi with her ever ready camera, managed to get a group picture of all of us. Nostalgic much, i'm gonna miss these people when school ends in 5 months or so.

On other news, I've been pretty much attending classes the entire week. Not like they were gonna get cancelled cuz we're Form 5 and we have to study our butts off without fail.

Not exactly looking forward to the weekends. ASEAN scholarship selection tests are on Saturday and Sunday. BLAH. It's annoying. Why did they have to split it into 2 days? And I'm just...urgh. Not looking forward to it at all. There'll be like THOUSANDS of them tomorrow. I've seen it before when Zachawie went for his 4 years ago, it was HUGE. And it was for the whole freakin day. 

And being the smart alec he is, of course he got the scholarship. Up till now. Lucky beetch.

Anywhooo, the only thing which is keeping me positive is that I'll be there with one of my besties, Joyce who applied for this along with me and we both got selected for this test. We're in different classes though, but at least i won't be so lost there while waiting or whatsoever. AND anyway, I'm pretty sure I'mma meet a whole lot of familiar faces while I'm there. Namely a whole bunch of smart alecs whom I known from around the area xD

ALSO, at least I'm pretty sure i got myself to catch Hannah Montana Movie on Sunday in Sunway. Speaking of which, THE LOCAL CINEMAS HERE DECIDED NOT TO SCREEN THE MOVIE! Like major wtf. I was so pissed I attempted to call them up, but those stupid nicoompoops wouldnt pick up the call. I will burn them down, rawr!

..okie, something along those lines, definitely.

And also, new JONAS episode this Sunday! LIKE FINALLY. Haven't been airing them for 2 weeks, so depressing D: Also, in all Jonas matter, I have renewed my header again! Love this one so much, cause it's very different than my usual graphics. I took a chance and decided to try some vector designs with pastel colors. Like the outcome of it. 

Last but not least, TWO MORE WEEKS TO RELEASE OF NEW ALBUM! Lines, Vines & Trying Times. Rumor also has it that one of the songs of the album which is Before The Storm has a surprise duet which no one has known about AND the JB are keeping tight-lipped about it. Yesterday, JHQ has confirmed that the duet is most probably and hopefully will be.....MILEY CYRUS.

A Jonas-Cyrus reunite. FINALLY. They needed a new song after We Got The Party. Praise the good Lord.

Also, I took the liberty to wake up as early as 7 am to catch their live chat today. And it was AWESOME! My first ever live chat, let alone with the JB. It was fun, definitely :) And, Nick says Before The Storm is also a very personal song to him, and since it's a possible Miley duet, so I'm guessing that ;) Sweet. Even more stoked. And Joe's personal song would be Much Better which for some reason, I can sense some Jaylor(Joe &Taylor) jabbing MAY appear. Oh boyyy.

Also, in other news, Demi Lovato has released her album cover today, and may I say it's drop-dead gorgeous! Her new album is named Here We Go Again. STOKED! July 21.

AND lately, I've been kinda addicted to Micthel Musso's debut album! Just came out on June 2, and it sounds amazing. Especially Us Against the World. Addicted to it now ;) Along with some other cool songs like Hey, The In Crowd and many more ;)

In the true words of Joe Jonas, LVATT is NOT a German single bound to be released soon. Just sayin'

So Lines, Vines & Trying Times preview tracks has been released last week during the an-hour-long livechat(which was highly amusing).

One word: EFFINAMAZING. The word doesn't exist, I know.

Without further ado, I present you the preview of the songs.



And also, a slight description of each song as explained by the Jonas Brothers themselves. Credit to JonasHQ for info.

“World War III”
This is about a personal experience for me. “World War III” deals with the challenge of a girl who keeps attacking you, provoking you, trying to fight you all the while she’s the only one fighting –Nick Jonas

“Paranoid”
We had the amazing opportunity of writing with two great talents, Cathy Dennis and our producer John Fields. We loved the outcome so much we decided to put it on our record –Jonas Brothers

“Fly With Me”
This song was originally composed for an upcoming film release. After screening the movie and going through the initial process of matching our style to the visuals of the film, we wrote “Fly With Me.” It’s exciting to know that this song will be used in the film’s end credits, as well as featured on our new album –Jonas Brothers

“Poison Ivy”
“Poison Ivy” was a way for us to find the common bond between metaphor and reality. We had the pleasure of writing with our bass player Greg Garbowsky (who we wrote “Tonight” with) infusing new sounds through the use of horn pieces among other new and imaginative musical styles –Nick Jonas

“Hey Baby”
We originally wrote this song for the last album (A Little Bit Longer) while on the road, but felt the “old school sound” was more cohesive with our present style –Nick Jonas

“Before The Storm”
This song was written after personal experiences that made us grow in the ways of love and relationships –Jonas Brothers

“What Did I Do To You Heart”
We wrote this song last summer while on tour in Europe with Avril Lavigne. Still learning and coming into our own, we saw that we would try to solve issues about girls, life, and coming of age, without even knowing what the challenges would be –Jonas Brothers

“Much Better”
Our fans mean the world to us and “Much Better” is giving back to them. After two years of their loyalty and dedication we felt there was no more personal way to give back than to share our influences, from the Bee Gee’s to Neil Diamond –Joe Jonas

“Black Keys”
The inspiration for this song came by way of sitting one day at a piano and writing my first song through the use of only the black keys. It was then that I realized the simplicity of black and white versus the noise that is brought on by color –Nick Jonas

“Don’t Charge Me For The Crime” (featuring Common)
“Don’t Charge Me For The Crime” is a story about getting roped into situations beyond your control. A friend calls you needing a ride and unbeknownst to you, he’s just robbed a bank. Being the good friend that you are, you pick him up and involve yourself beyond your control. This all leads up to you wanting to do the right thing, but even more so, wanting to help those around you into doing the right thing –Jonas Brothers

“Turn Right”
The idea stems from the course that racecar drivers take out on the track, always turning left and here if you take that one chance to go against the grain you find yourself in the arms of safety. It’s a song about taking a chance, doing what you are not necessarily comfortable with and discovering solace in the unknown. And most importantly, trusting those who mean a lot to you –Joe Jonas

“Don’t Speak”
“Don’t Speak” is an homage to some of our favorite contemporary bands: U2, Kings Of Leon and Muse. I think it deals with the biggest mistake we all make which is dwelling on the past instead of just making strides towards the future. All too often we get stuck spinning our wheels trying to fix things without ever realizing how much life is passing us by, because we’ve forgotten how much there is to just look forward to –Jonas Brothers

Also, I took the liberty to do some rankings for them which I wrote out in my iPod, cuz i was bored and I just had to come up with something after hearing those songs repeatedly.

1) Fly With Me
2) Hey Baby
3) Paranoid
4) Don't Speak

6) Turn Righgt
7) What Did I Do To Your Heart
8) World War III
