Hello Ween...

Booh! Hello dudettes and dudes. What's up? Did you know that today's Halloween? Yup yup it is! I've decorated some places of the house accordingly. I've made fake spider webs out of plain paper. I've used mostly some orange and black fabric, black ribbons, orange and black bristol papers, some chandeliers, candles and some fake petals for the decoration.















Since no one is celebrating Halloween in my neighborhood, I'm gonna opt for the next best alternative, which is watching all the Halloween movies and series on Disney Channel. hehe. So long buddies!

The Secrets of the Brethren


The secrets of the brethren are not yet out and it's been almost one month since the MBB blog has been up. Those who regularly visit or know about the Mauritian Blog Brethren already know that the secret of the identity of the MBB team has not yet been disclosed to the Mauritian blogging population, though various attempts have been made on the MBB forum to know something about them! :P Many speculations have been made and some even believe that the MBB team are a bunch of UOM lecturers! This is very possible I guess. Especially, since the last review I've read is of a lecturer's blog.

Several blogs have been reviewed so far and one of them is mine! :D Cool huh!

I don't know to what extent MBB has attained its aim at promoting Mauritian blogs and bloggers but personally, I've got to discover new blogs, make new friends and it has also helped me "break the ice" by going forward and participating in other blogs. I've also got to discover the blogs of old friends and I've bonded back with lost friends! lol! No, I wasn't paid to say these! (I wish I was!) :D

Anyway, I hope they keep up with the good job and best of luck to them and to all Mauritian bloggers! Let's help MBB in building this wonderful Mauritian blogging fraternity! :P yaaayyy!

Wassup with me?

Nothing's up with me. OK, let's pretend you were asking.

So, I went to the concert with Jev on Wednesday. It ended at 9 and a half PM dudettes and dudes! No need to say I was really panicked. Anyway, I hope I haven't been that much of a spoilsport. You can read Jev's recount of the event here.

The next day, Thursday, I was sick! I caught the cold, cough and fever package from Quatres Bornes' sublime climate! Duh!

Friday, still sick with a bad mood to top it all.

Saturday, also known as today, I'm better. This might be due to the fact that I slept as a log all day, this is saying something cause I don't ever sleep in the day.

Anyway, I'm fit enough to type right now and then off to bed again.

P.S: I know I've had flues too much lately. Weird huh?

The Bleeding - Five Finger Death Punch

Dudettes and dudes, at last the time has come for me to talk about my crush of the month. OK, I'll cut the crap and stop being pompous! hihi, the song is called The Bleeding and it's sung by a band named Five Finger Death Punch.

The story behind my discovery of this song is a quite interesting one. In fact I was pressuring Jevin to look for a song with which I could fall in love and ultimately blog about as my crush of the month. So after some days he made me listen to The Bleeding. We were in the bus but I could still hear some damn things and I fell in love with the solo (Jevin wanted to immortalise the moment with a photo. Thank God I did not let him take it). Then I wasn't really in love with the lyrics; I absolutely hate songs that talk about love and relationships.

But then dudettes and dudes, came this part:

As wicked as you are, you're beautiful to me
You're the darkest burning star, you're my perfect disease

And it made me think of someone I really love and he is...


Noushie! my cat. Yeah he's absolutely wicked!


So here's a complete lyrics of this song, borrowed from AZLyrics.com


"The Bleeding"

[V1:]
I remember when all the games began
Remember every little lie and every last goodbye
Promises you broke, words you choked on
and I never walked away,
it's still a mystery to me

[Pre-Chorus:]
Well I'm so empty
I'm better off without you and you're better off without me
Well you're so unclean
I'm better off without you and you're better off without me

[Chorus:]
The lying, the bleeding, the screaming
Was tearing me apart
The hatred (deceiving), the beatings; it's over

[V2:]
Paint the mirrors black to forget you
I still picture your face and the way you used to taste
Roses in a glass, dead and wilted
To you this all was nothing
Everything to you is nothing

[Pre-Chorus:]
Well you're so filthy
I'm better off without you and you're better off without me
Well I'm so ugly
You're better off without me and I'm better off alone

[Chorus:]
The lying, the bleeding, the screaming
Was tearing me apart
The hatred, the beatings (disaster); it's over

As wicked as you are, you're beautiful to me
You're the darkest burning star, you're my perfect disease

[Chorus:]
The lying, the bleeding, the screaming
Was tearing me apart
The hatred, the beatings; it's over
Disaster
The lying, the bleeding, the screaming
Was tearing me apart
The hatred, the beatings; it's over
Disaster

It's over now...


And a video:



I absolutely did not want to post the video since, let's face it, it's not beautiful at all. I expected something more poetic than just a couple drinking beer and doing things and then the woman committing suicide because, well, because there is no reason at all. Anyway, anyway, hope you'll enjoy the song! :D
