I've been addicted to Funeral for a Friend's Album, "Escape Artists Never Die".
I love all the guitar work in all the songs, it's so intricate and the riffs underneath the simple melody picking is really effective. I also like how one of the guitarist uses pretty fuzzy distortion while the other hardly uses any to really emphasis the melody picking. Even though it was when they were going through their emo experimentation, their guitar playing and melodies are far from mediocore.
I prefer this album to their newest album, "Tales don't tell themselves". It was a pretty nothing album and I didn't like their whole theme to do with the ocean. I remember when I saw Funeral for a Friend open for Iron Maiden back in Scotland, they were really good and they knew how to work the crowd. But back then, they were still starting off and they hadn't matured as much as they have now. They had all emo fringes and depressing back drops.
I had a problem with my passport because I overstayed here in Kuala Lumpur. I thought that I had my Visa in my passport already, but apparently not. I have to go to the Student Affairs office tomorrow and get it sorted and pay a fine of 160RM. It's their fault, they gave me no warning or notice that I needed to do that with my passport.

I also have to pay the rest of my University fees, most of it was paid two days ago but the cheque that my Dad gave me wasn't enough. The fees flutuate every year so there's never an exact semester fee.
It's all going good so far!
