That 4 Lads From Australia

So I have new obsession. Okay not quite new, I have liked them for quite some time already, but my obsession couldn't get a full swing with limited proper videos, audios, interviews and exposure of these guys. But now they have finally launched their music career and with a blast at that, it is so much easier to obsess about them and not that I can resist it, haha. Well, finally all those times watching all those bad quality videos and fan-deafening show performances are paid off. Their self-titled debut album has already come out somewhere in June, 2014 which you can basically listen to on repeat and ready to bleed your ears. Lol, at least that's what it does to me.   

Okay seriously, I found out about this band late in 2012 when someone on Twitter shared one of their YouTube videos with me. So I just casually checked them out on YouTube not really expecting anything. And nor did I get anything either after watching it. Like, it's all because of the bad quality of the video and I can't really hear them singing clearly. So i went on and checked all their other videos and all I can say at that time was, wow these guys goof around a lot, like really a lot. Are they seriously want to sing or they just want to have fun? But I can't really stop myself from laughing along with them as they forgot the lyrics, sung in a really weird voices, running from their parents and just really playing like they were in some playground. And that's what makes them different from others. They actually have fun with what they are doing. Doesn't mean they are any less serious though. They write most of their songs. And they play instruments. Yeah, they're surely not another pop band on their way.

Sigh..I think I went on and ranting again. Lol, that is just so like me. But all I want to say is this band is different than what the world mainstream entertainment had and it's kind of attractive in its way. Hey, being different is attractive. ^^ But either it is good different or bad different, I think we have to watch them for some time before we can decide on that. But right now, while they're still fresh from being YouTube famous, they're definiely a good different. What? Are you actually waiting for me to properly introduce and feed you with all the info about this band? Nahh...I'm not gonna do that. You can find that in just about another hundreds of website dedicated for them. Hehe..sorry...^^

What....did you just say they're just another One Direction material Nononono, don't even go there. How the heck they are anything like 1D? I have nothing against 1D, I'm in fact a fan of 1D too, but treating 5SOS as another 1D version 2.0 is just so wrong. (shaking my head in disappointment) You see they played their own instruments. And they write their own songs. And have you seen their album cover? Have you listened to their songs? They're definitely not a pretty boy kind of band and they surely not serenading a girl with sweet melody and lyrics about how naturally pretty she is. So yeah, this argument is invalid. 

For a starter listen to She Looks So Perfect which has already break through the Billboards. Or Amnesia which is just the opposite of She Looks So Perfect but just as addictive as SLSP (that is She Looks So Perfect for you, dude, you can't expect me to write such long title again and again, right?) But my personal suggestion? You should definitely listen to Out of My Lemon lol no, just kidding, that's not their song title. I mean, Out of My Limit and Eighteen. That is the real stuff about them although sadly the songs are not in their debut album. 

Owh lovely, we have reach at the end of this entry and all I ever wanted to say is that this band is awesome and I'm in love no, I mean I'm addicted and obsessed with them. I know, I know, this is one useless post, it's as if I didn't say anything at all, just bear with me will ya?

A Brave Heart from Australia

Who is this boy?Why am I doing a post about him?The very face you're seeing right now,is the face of a 13-years old boy who had give up his life in order to save the life of his younger brother,Blake,10-years old during a flood in Australia.He is just a normal boy coming from Toowoomba,Australia and live with his parent and younger brother.But what he did at the end of his life has made him to stand out from other 13-years old kid.Jordan,his mother and his younger brother went out to buy his school uniform when their car is engulfed by the water while they were inside the car.Having no other option,they had to go to the roof and although there were other people there,nobody tried to help them.Her mother called the rescuer.When the rescuer came,her mother had asked him to take Jordan first since he is petrified with water and couldn't swim.

"Save my brother first",that's what Jordan had said to the rescuer and with that,the rescuer had take Blake to the safety first.And when his turn came,both Jordan and his mother had been swept away by the floods leaving Blake the only one to survive.

When I read about this yesterday in Tumblr,I felt like crying and I tried to imagine what it was like for Jordan to give up his own life for his younger brother.For someone who was petrified of water and couldn't swim,he must be wanting to get on the land as soon as possible.But,when the rescuer had reach his hand for him,he in contrast had asked him to save his younger brother first.It's a brave and angelic act that we couldn't see very often.What's more it's a young teenager!His act shows his maturity as a man and not as a boy!I almost cried when I read along and trust me I'm not someone who cried easily.Imagine if it is us in the situation.Will we give up our entire life at such a young age for our siblings?To be honest,when I was his age,I don't like my own little brother and we fought whenever we see each other.And when he got in trouble,instead of helping him out of it,I laughed and smiled,feeling happy to myself.As I talk about this and compare myself with Jordan,I feel ashamed.I'm not a good sister and I'm probably a bad one.Jordan has made me think about my own acts towards my younger brother.I hope from now on,I'll treat my brother better,the way he is supposed to be treated and just like the way he's treated me with respect and love.T_T
