Hello. How yall doing? I hope yall are doing well. Just realized how fast time flies during the holidays. Well, it has been a great ride. All are balanced out.

I was able to finish my song with my friend. It is pretty good I guess. Next song will surely be about her, I hope.

Tomorrow / today I have school. Umm, POA class. Then, some of the dudes are coming over (and some of the girls maybe. ).

Still no confirmation. *sigh* Haha. One more day. Give it another day..

Ohh.. Selena released her new trailer for her new movie " Ramona and Beezus. " She obviously look stunning, without question. Haha! :)

Should I join Psalm 91? I don't know. Well, let's see where God leads me.

Okay, done!
Ryan.

Wow. This is a very dead blog.

Hey. Waddup whoever is reading this? Yes, it is I, Ryan Kristianto Wirayadi. As usual, bored but happy. Life's been confusing at the moment. But, I did record the song I'll be submitting for the song writing competition.

I do know what I want. Am I good enough? Am I no different from all the other guys? I try to be different.

All these things running in my mind.

I just came back from church camp, which was a great experience. I loved that I could actually, for the first time, feel a little bit of God. It was great. And the experience of forgetting someone also happened in the camp. So, I would like to thank God for letting me go to this camp. I went to confession which really helped me to release weight off my heart.

Now, I have to start all over again. But, I don't wanna. I have a policy to only like girls when I actually know them a little. But, I don't even know this girl. All I know is her name, her age (older than me) and some other small details but, I know nothing important. Well, too bad. Haha. Damn, what am I saying? Everything is all jumbled up together. So confusing. I don't know anymore. . .

Remember December / Holidays

2010-01-08T12:04:00.004+08:00

The end of year holidays was a great ride for me. Starting from extra classes during the early holidays to ending the year in China. I shall not talk about November as it is long and boring. I shall start from the 1st of December. I went back to my homeland, Jakarta, on that day which was when the party actually begin.

I played soccer in Jakarta. It was awesome. But here is the weird thing, I never was able to play properly in Singapore with my friends but when I am in Jakarta, I played like a different person. Maybe it was because I get the freedom to roam or I am just plain nervous when I play here. I did not really go anywhere though cause I was never the type of person who is always eager to go out.

I did many other things in Jakarta. I went to play this game which is similar to paint ball but, it uses bullets made out of plastic. It is awesome to play it in the day but, I played it once at night and the place just become really eerie. I also went camping with my family and played this adventure sport called "tubing". It is like rafting but players have to sit on a float.

I went to parts of China too. I went to Shenzhen, Hong Kong, Macau and Zhu Hai. Nothing much to say about them.

There is one thing that will make this holiday very memorable for me. I did not make it a secret of my desire to record this holiday. Fortunately, I was able to record. I met up with a few talented musicians and they made it happen for me. Of course, this recording would not have happened without my dad who asked my cousin about it first. I was able to do 2 songs and overall I enjoyed it.

Basically, this holiday will be in my mind for quite a while because I took my first step from here. Who knows what might happen in the future because of this?

Summing up the week, live from Jakarta!

2009-12-21T00:41:00.002+08:00

Hey yall! How yall doing? I hope yall are enjoying your respective holidays. Time sure flies when you're having fun, doesn't it? Yes, I do not like to remind myself that it is going to be the end of hols. I only have 4 days left in Jakarta. Sure, I'm going to go to another tour over at another country on the 28th but, there is no place like your real home, ya know?

Basically, it has been a week of little sleep. I've been enjoying myself here. Lots of cousins and activities and such. On Monday, the cavalary arrived. My two boy cousins, my second sister and my mum. The next day we went camping! I mean in a real tent. Umm, we played this awesome adventure sport called "tubing", I think. Its like rafting but, it is one person on a float. It was really fun! Oh, the water was super cold and you'll ache all over after playing that. No butt protection=Your ass being hit by stone once in a while.

The most important part of the week is of course my first ever, close to official recording! Well, it is close to official cause there are all the awesome gadgets and the awesome musicians and everyhting. BUT, it is over at a house. It was an awesome night. I was able to do 2 songs. They told me my voice was good, and it was way better for the second song. The 2 songs I did was Save You - Simple Plan and The Way I Loved You - Selena Gomez & The Scene. If I could upload it somewhere, then I would. Soon. I don't have the recordings yet. So overall, it was a great week.

I don't even know why I'm blogging cause no one actually reads this blog. Haha.

I'm just going to post some crap on this post so please don't mind.

Selena should be having her concert in San Fran right now. I hope she rocked the house down.

Selena & The Scene have been sounding real good. The Scene sounds great. Selena is improving. Give her time, she has all the time in the world. Wonder what the next single would be? Oh, also what about the next live webchat if there is one?

So yeah. I plan to wake up early tomorrow. I need to work on my music. I'm not there yet. I know I can be better. Need to write more songs. I have a few reasons why I need to. But, too lazy to list them down. Let's just say that one of them would lead to the word "expensive" and then to "big budget" and finally to "you outta your mind?!"

So, I'm done. Going to turn in soon. Nights!

Your dude,
Ryan

Greetings From Jakarta!

2009-12-08T23:39:00.005+08:00

Hey yall! How yall doing? I hope you guys have been enjoying your holidays.

So, Jakarta's been great. I've felt all the emotions in the world here.

I've been on a movie spree with the people over here. I think I watched 13 movies already. From comedy to thriller to Zombies invasion and really evil high school girl.

There is 2 movies that I love most though. ZombieLand is just awesome while I Love You, Beth Cooper is a little different for me. I have a totally different view of it. Well, 1. It is because I just realized how HOT Hayden Panettiere is. Especially in that movie. 2. It is because I could relate to that movie. I don't know. People might think that it is crazy, lame and idiotic, but I can actually relate to the whole movie. Except for the parts where I get beaten up really badly or come up with the guts to express my love to a huge crush of mine in front of the whole school on graduation day or the part where I could get to kiss the girl of my dreams and, and... *ahem* Okay, well yeah.

" You're not alive till you're living. " Well, what are yall take on that? I love that phrase. Along with 2 words " Carpe Diem. " All these I get from a movie.

I've been thinking and discussing. And I think I've decided. For the good of myself and for the good of the band itself. I'll tell them as soon as one of them goes online. Besides, they said singers aren't important and they've got people that could replace me anytime.

Well, I'm on trail! I don't know what is going to happen but, I'm recording! Well sort of. I don't know how everything is going to happen. But well, I'm just excited. This is something just awesome. So, yeah. I would need suggestions for the songs though. 3 songs. I already know one song that I will record. " The Way I Loved You " - Selena Gomez & The Scene. Can yall give me suggestions for the other 2?

Well, that's it for me. Dreams getting closer. I can feel it. I mean to be there, with the top people. Hope yall have awesome holidays!

Your dude,
Ryan

Heya!

2009-11-23T23:05:00.002+08:00

Hey yall. How yall doing? I have this urge to blog. But, I am so lazyy...

I don't feel like going to training tomorrow. It is not going to be in school.

I did this quiz thing. Pretty accurate. It says that I am a dreamer, which is quite true. I am a dreamer.

I've been on full music mode so far. I've been playing guitar non-stop and I went with the dudes for jamming the other day. We played '21 Guns', 'The River' and 'The Reason'. Overall, it was a pretty good day.

I finally got FIFA 10, along with SoulCalibur 4 and Tekken 6.

I hate the fact that I am nowhere near my dream. I didn't record, and my dad has not talk to me about anything. And if I don't get there, I cannot meet my idol and actually reach my official dream. So, yeah. Kill me for dreaming too much.

Anyways, I'm off. See yall.

Yours Truly,
Ryan.

P.S. Wonder how it feels like to be in a concert. Not the audience, but the performer.

Awesome. Live from Jakarta!

2009-11-15T00:28:00.002+08:00

Hey yall! How yall doing? I'm reporting LIVE from Jakarta!

I just came back from this huge dinner thing. It is the 23rd anniversary of my dad's business. This is the reason why I actually came to Jakarta. For this dinner. And that is why I only can stay till Monday. No, it doesn't really explain why but, well yeah, I'll be in Jakarta till Monday.

The dinner is great. I mixed with lots of adults. Its like all those very high class dinner where there is lots of utensils that you have to pick. I got confused as I don't know which side to take. The right one or the left one. The food is exceptionally limited as it is a course meal. Started with the starting course, prawn salad, and then the appetizer, some cream soup, next we had the main dinner, which was chicken steak with prawn and pasta with gravy that is mixed with lots of different ingredients. Finally, we had dessert. A small cake with a few things at the side of the cake. Nice!

There was live music. One was from a "band" called "Acoustic Fever". Then, music from 2 ladies. One of them is very pretty. And then, live music from 2 ladies, they call themselves " Maha Dewi ". Quite a big name in Indonesia. Both so pretty. I wanted to take a photo with them and get an autograph but well, yall know me, I was very shy. *sigh*

So overall, today is perfect. Tiring but, nice day. I get to wear my dad's tuxedo! But, I didn't wear the bow tie cause well, I thought I would be rather overdressed and, I was right. Well, I was the only one using tux, I think.

Well, I didn't get a guitar. One of the strings of my cousin's guitar snapped. Maybe if I actually dared to talk to those artists, I could.... Hehe. Oh well...

Aight, I'm done! See yall soon. Peace!

Your dude,
Ryan

Yo peeps!

2009-11-12T22:16:00.003+08:00

Hey yall. How yall doing? Right now I am wishing that "Udon Tempura" would appear right in front of my face. And a plate of that pasta thing that I had in T2 Airport. Love 'em.

Anyways, I'm off to my homeland tomorrow. "Enjoy Jakarta" says the advertistment for well, Jakarta. I'll have to rush home from school and pack up everything cause I have not packed my bag pack yet. Luggage packed but, not the bag.

Wow, I've been playing guitar non-stop for the past 2 nights. I guess all the naggings finally went through this thick skull of mine. Been trying to master "Give Love A Try", "The Way I Loved You" and "That's Just The Way We Roll". All really simple songs. But, I have taken 2 days to learn all of them. But, mastering and finish learning the song are two different things. So, yeah. I hope there is guitar in Jakarta.

I missed selection day for next week's friendly against JurongVille cause I wasn't feeling well suddenly. So, I went home to rest. Well, I wasn't going to get picked for the first 11 anyways. For Tuesday, if somebody come, I'm so going to play the game of my life (If I play, that is).

The band thing has been really hard. Cause we haven't finalised our drummer and we can't agree on songs. Well, basically I am outnumbered. Cause the rest of the dudes like the same songs. I'm just okay with the song but, I want songs that challenge my vocals not songs that I can't sing. I guess I, too, am being selfish here. But, I want to do this band thing so bad cause I need to gain experience for my dream.

I am hoping I could record a demo and start practicing my vocals. So, I hope I am good enough.

Oh Yeah! A friend of mine is currently in _ _ _ _. I'll let yall guess the word. Haha. And he actually saw things he should not have seen because of reasons. No, not all those filthy, dirty stuff. But, something else... Hmmm... XD

Well, I hope yall are having fun with the holidays and life. See yall.

Your dude,
Ryan Kristianto Wirayadi

Apparently, I'm just tired.

2009-11-05T21:22:00.002+08:00

Hey yall. How yall doing? Its been a while.

So, what's up? Exams done, marks received, Pulau Ubin camp done, report books received, PS3 played, intensive soccer training check, school during holidays available, what's missing from this list? I know one, no demo. I've been waiting for this holiday cause I am like thinking that I could at last like do music. But, all these things are blocking my way.

I remembered what that teacher said about dreams the other day. Its something like if you want to chase after your dreams, there are always obstacles blocking your way. And obstacles there are in my path to glory and recognition. I don't know what to feel these few days. Cause I am just confused. I don't know if I'll even get a chance to do this. It might seem that my dreams are already crushed even before I even tried and its crushed by own family members. This dream is a big one, I know. Very huge actually. Being a star after being an unknown for most of my life, then helping people with my voice when I hardly have that voice right now in life, I barely even have voice to say what I want to say and aiming to be at the highest of the highest in the world's most unpredictable market. And of course get to meet my idols that inspire me to sing in the first place.

Anyways, tomorrow I'll be going jamming for the 3rd time in my life. Awesome. I hope everything would go smoothly. I hope it would be another great experience.

Damn, I am just tired everyday ever since exams are over. I don't know why. Just... So... Tired. Moody all the time. My heart feels heavy and my eyes are heavy.

I overslept in the bus again just now. I wayyyyy missed my stop. I also didn't go training today because I am just so tired. I wasn't feeling well, my head was in a mess.

Oh well, I have got to go rest. Last day of gaming course tomorrow. Nights yall.

Your dude,
Ryan

Bored bored bored. What's new?

2009-10-23T21:43:00.002+08:00

Hey yall!

I'm just feeling so bored. So, I've decided to blog. There's no one else to talk to anyways. Hah!

I've just been watching reruns of Sel stuff. On Youtube, MySpace and Facebook. Love, love Sel.

Still trying to come up with songs, to no avail. *sigh* Where is my inspiration when I need them?

Bored dude,
Ryan

Hmm,

2009-10-17T17:25:00.002+08:00

Hey yall! Waddup waddup? I hope yall are having fun as now we're supposedly free! No more exams, till the end of the year at least. Wee~

Well, I've not been doing anything. Like seriously. Just rot at home. Just watched the really hot part of Sel on the new WOWP episode. Damn, her + cheerleading costume = HOT! Hehe...

Anyone else bored?

Oh yeah, saw the last episode of "UNDER PRESSURE". "Journal" videos of Sel's road to the album. Gonna rerun it again. 1 - 8. I am crazy!

Well, basically my blog is all Selena, Selena, Selena. I should stop that. It should be a mix of other categories.

I have not been writing any songs as there are really no inspiration. I've been waiting. Maybe if...

Oh well, probably I'll post again tonight. Yeah, maybe.

Bored dude,
Ryan

hey hey

2009-10-16T21:48:00.002+08:00

Hello. Waddup? Been a while. I'm basically really bored now. So, let us talk about random stuff.

Exams are over! Yay! I know I did pretty well for my bio but the rest, we'll see.

I've started recording. My friend brought his laptop over on Wednesday. We did the cover of "Tonight" - FM Static. It was fun. The best recording I've ever heard of myself. So, I wanna really thank that friend.

What else, what else? Oh yeah, WOWP Season 3 ep 1 is out. She was rocking her short hair. She looks beautiful as usual, especially in her cheerleading outfit.

Hmm, next. My sister and I are totally in love with this new show called, Glee. Really great.

Wow, I watched so many Sel video for the past 2 days. This is not good but, still... :)

I've been thinking about someone. He/she has been on my mind. Should I say something? Oh well, not that yall care or anything.

What else? Well, I'm good. I'm done. Nights, peace out!

Your Dude,
Ryan

Touch down!

2009-10-10T23:35:00.001+08:00

Hey yall! How yall doing?

So, I'm getting lazy to update blogs but, part of me wants me to blog so, here I am! Even though only a handful of you reads my blog.

Oh yeah, I just can't wait to do a demo. It is going to be A-MAZ-ING. I wanna reach to the top as soon as possible. Once I reach there, I ain't coming back down. No, no, no. Why am I still here? Well, cause I can only dream. So many obstacles blocking my way. School, CAMPS, family, etc.

Love, love music! Haha!

So yeah, I'm out!

Yall's dude,
Ryan

Who's the Birthday Boy?

2009-10-07T20:57:00.002+08:00

Yo yo yo! Waddup? How yall doing? Its been a day of blessing as I have turned 15! Sure I only got one present but, I shall not be discouraged. Its exam season. No one has got the time to buy any presents.

Yeah well, my list has always been out of this world, but its just because I am blessed to have the wants and needs that I want before. Now, these would be a bonus. Still, it wouldn't hurt to get wish no. 4, 5 and 6. Hehe. That would be awesome.

Tomorrow's maths paper 1. Gotta get ready. Nights.

Ryan

State of mind: Empty

2009-10-06T20:50:00.003+08:00

Hey hey hey! How yall doing? I hope yall are doing fine. Tomorrow's my birthday! Wee~

The rest of the exams are coming, let's us pray it is not too hard and we'll all promote together. =D

I have loads of birthday wishes! But well, who am I kidding? I know 7/8 of them would not come true, maybe like all of them. Haha. I have a very imaginative mind. It'll run really wild. Birthday wishes
1. Selena suprise! (Anything from MSN chat, phone call, webcam etc.) [impossible, but still continue to pray]
2. Blackberry Storm II (This phone sounds and looks awesome!) [small possibility]
3. Laptop (Updated/Upgraded to the max!) [small possibility]
4. Kiss & Tell Album (It will be awesome to get my hands on my idol's album, autographed=bonus) [no autograph, medium possibility. Autographed, impossible]
5. FIFA 10 (Awesome soccer game!) [Higher possibility amongst the rest]
6. Record a Demo ( Without any conditions. For my dream.) [Small possibility]
7. VIP tickets to see any of Selena Gomez & The Scene concert next year (It will be awesome! Especially if it is somewhere in Asia like Singapore or Jakarta, Indonesia) [Impossible for VIP tickets, close to impossible for second one]
8. A dream that I can't say here. (This will be lovely!) [Impossible]
9. Another dream that I can't say here. (VERY LOVELY!) [Impossible]

Haha! See my wish? Almost impossible to fulfill! Basically I am saying that I am blessed to have what I have now. Family, friends etc. These stuff would be a real great BONUS! It wouldn't hurt to have any of this. Haha. LOL. As I said, these will be bonus (except for no. 6).

I pray that these wishes/dreams could be fulfilled. *sigh* Haha!

Aight, I'm outta here!

Your dude,
Ryan

Sad, dissapointed

2009-10-03T11:07:00.003+08:00

Hey guys. Waddup? So, I started the day feeling like shit. You see, I wasn't in the top ten for Selena's promotion thing. A lot of people are hating her currently because they say that the top 10 videos aren't as good as their own. I don't know cause I didn't want to look at other entries especially those in the top ten. They were also left baffled as they think that Sel didn't see all of the entries. I expected it actually but, I just wanted to show my support. And anyway this is a very good way to get some experience to reach my dream.

Well, my most important wish is already dead for my b'day. I just hope my music will not rot in the world wide web. It is a good song. Maybe I'll just use the music but, change the lyrics for my next song.

My b'day wishes ( No need to really give me anything actually, just want to post my b'day wishes ): 1. The real Sel to call me ( impossible ). 2. Pass my exams. 3. I want a laptop that can record my voice close to studio recording. 4. Equipments for recording. 5. Blackberry Storm II!!! 6. FIFA 10 ( PS 3 ). 7. Record a DEMO! 8. VIP tickets to any of her show next year. ( Impossible ).

Oh, I also want to say that, nvm. All I want to say is I'm very pissed with this dude more and more everyday.

P.S. I'm going to wipe that smile off your know it all face

-Ryan

Checking in

2009-10-02T17:19:00.002+08:00

Hey yall? Waddup? How yall doing? Its been a while. Leeya helped me post the video for Selena's promotion. More videos coming soon. More original songs coming soon.

My music life has to take a slower pace now as exams have already started. English down, MT down. Next week Thursday till next, next week Wednesday are the next papers. I wish everyone who reads this blog well.

Oh. I kept on forgetting. 5 more days to the day I came out to the world. For me, one way to say birthday, " Birth anniversary ". So, that is 5 more days. 7th October. You know the best present is if suddenly, I'm one of the top ten videos tomorrow. Ahhh! Can't wait! Oh, a FIFA 10 isn't bad and that cable thing so that my PS3 can go to the web. Oh! A laptop. I don't know why out of a sudden I'm craving for a laptop. Oh! And maybe like a mini set of studio equipments so that I can record my voice. Oh! and if I don't win the competition (touch wood), a Kiss & Tell album. Oh! And at least a top 3 finish. That means, second prize!

I'm currently struggling to even come up with one song. I got the melody, then the lyrics don't fit. I got the lyrics, but the melody don't fit. I hate this feeling. Help me!

Everyone, pray for those people who suffered Mother's Nature wrath 2 days ago. E.g. Earthquake in Sumatra. Pray for the departed, pray for their families so that they will stay strong through this tough time, and pray the country so that everyone will work together to help them get back on their feet ASAP.

KISS AND TELL IS OUT! I'm so loving the album. Some of my friends should like it too as the album is basically rock and techno. Currently favorite songs for me: More, The Way I Loved You, Kiss and Tell and Naturally.

Wow, said so many things. I'm pretty sure there are many grammar mistakes. But well, its been a while since I posted. Haha. LOL. So, signing out!

P.S. If you haven't check out my video, please do! Its the video below this post I think.
P.P.S. If you have watched it, please spread the word. Thanks!

Peace,
Ryan

Peace,
Ryan

Aight people! 20th post.

2009-09-25T22:00:00.002+08:00

Heyo people! How yall doing? This is my 20th post (I think). So, yay!!

Today! Vinia and Ko Vandi came over. We recorded Falling Down and the Promotion Song. Ko Vandi changed the 2nd song. I mean the way it was supposed to be played and it was great. Really great. It was awesome. We recorded with his handphone. So, things didn't really exactly work as we planned. So, change of plans.

Exams are coming. AHHH! I just can't wait till, nvm.

Next, tomorrow's Saturday. I'm going to continue with the promotion tomorrow night while I'll try to use the day to study as much as I can. Wish me luck. Time is ticking away for the deadline of the promotion and for exams. Argh, so many things to do.

Since, it is the 20th post. I promise to try to put the video on the blog once it is finished. I'll send it to Selena too of course. So, wish us luck! It is going to be awesome. Aiming to be the first! Well, adios amigos!

Peace,
Ryan

Tomorrow's the day

2009-09-24T22:03:00.002+08:00

Alrighty!!! Heyo peeps! How yall doing? I hope yall are doing great!

Hmm well, today I knew that someone that is supposed to be like quite important to me due to some reason has a very bad eating disorder. I didn't say anything. I only want to say I pray for her, please let her be well again.

OKAY! Tomorrow's the day! We are going to record it! Yes, we are! 2 songs, random people and let's figure out what I can do with the poster. Maybe tomorrow.

Well, today. I'm going to do another short one again. So, night people!

Peace,
Ryan

P.S. "People who pulls you down, will be the ones who motivate you. " -Sel

We'll see won't we? I'll just keep that one in my head! Thanks!

Title

2009-09-23T19:57:00.002+08:00

Heyo! How yall doing? Good? I have no idea what to put as title, so I'll just put title.

Anyways, what can I do? Music took control of my life ever since I strive to be an artist. I can't concentrate anymore. I am not doing what I am supposed to be doing which is studying. I still do studying but, not as much as I am supposed to.

Well, no response yet. I do hope she would respond. I would really love to get a respond. Love to be a friend, her friend. Not because she's what she is but, who she is. I mean deep inside. Yeah, maybe she heard that one before but, its true.

I got a new guitarist! Well, not confirm yet but, well let us just take it as I have a new guitarist! Yeah! Operation SCP (Selena Competition Promotion) is still underway but, will I have enough time? We'll see. Especially when we're aiming for a Saturday finish. So, pray to God he can and available!

So basically. Please God make her respond and please let him be available and able to play the song!

Peace,
Ryan

2009-09-22T21:39:00.002+08:00

I've done everything. Like seriously. I prepared so much! The picture, the schedule, everything. I told people what to do for this. I asked and they volunteered, anything wrong with that? Everything is supposed to be done by this Friday. I've done so much. So, so much. All I want is to get it right.

He decided not to do, due to his own reasons. I trusted him. I put everything on him. I placed all my bets on him. Well, he decided not to do and rejected me quite badly. Added things that he shouldn't say.

Match has to be on Friday.

Some other he, decided to say that this thing could be a repeat. I mean, there are some other time. That is why, we come back to a few blogs before, that is why I want it to be done by last week!!! Now, I don't even think there would be a this week. Thank you. Thanks a lot.

No, I'm not blaming anyone. I've decided to blame it all to myself. For reasons, that you don't need to know. Everything will be kept in me. So, yeah. HAVE FUN WITH LIFE!

Hey yall, what's up?

Heyo! How yall doing? I hope yall are doing good. Basically, today is just so-so. So, nothing much to talk about.

Oh, at night, I sent someone a private message through windows live thing. Apparently, windows live is getting better and better. Better than just being a communication system for us. Haha! I do hope that person do reply. If that person is seeing this, it would be so cool.

Say, all my life I have been lost in what I wanted to do, and now, at the age where usually we people will get lost and supposed to be the confusing period, I found out what I wanted to do. To entertain people, through the melodious sounds of music. To change the world once I am there, at the top of the world. There are many reasons why I want to be an artist. But, top state a few:
1. I want to do something that I love
2. I want to be able to meet all my idols (Selena Gomez, Taylor Swift, Jason Mraz etc. )
3. I want to be able to do something for the world once I have got the money!

There! 3 reasons.

SO, I am just going to do a short one today. Exams are coming. Good luck boys and girls.

Peace,
Ryan

Great!

2009-09-20T23:05:00.002+08:00

Heyo! How yall doing? Selamat Hari Raya every muslim friend of mine! Hope you had a great day, yeah?

Anyways, Manchester United won 4 - 3 against Manchester City in one of the best matches I have ever seen. Michael Owen scored the winning goal! YEAAAHH!! Argh, my throat is freaking uncomfortable, screamed the whole match. What a match that was!

Ahh, at last. I got a response. Well, valid reason. So, we are looking for a great day next week on Friday for the taking of the video. Come on! Play that guitar, learn that song, sing it loud, find random people, record, mix video and done! Send!

Oh, exams are coming!

Hmm, you know what would make tomorrow's holiday a great, great day? He suddenly can play the guitar for both songs perfectly, she can sing it very well, we can listen to each other. Selena read my blog and decided to answer all my questions! Maybe she would do a webcam with me. Ahh, that would be a great day. Oh oh, and plus my studies. Suddenly, I know everything and my music, my voice improved. Ahh, mark my words, that would be a great day.

You know, if I get to do the webcam, that would be great. I've got so many questions! Ahh, I love Sel!

Why am I suddenly thinking of you? (Not Sel) Hmm. Anyways, I'm off. Good night!

Peace,
Ryan

Oh! Btw,

2009-09-19T23:58:00.002+08:00

Heyo again. Umm, I just wanted to add a few things.

So, have you ever wanted things to go your way for once? Just once. Like maybe to be able to be an artist. YOUNG artist like starting, umm, now! Or when you play striker and wishes that someone to please, please pass to you and let you show what you can do? Just want to leave this as a question to think about.

Oh, I would like to apologize to Rahman for pushing him too hard. I mean, who am I to push you to the limit? So, sorry.

AND, just being random. You know, if I could just let Selena see this, I would ask her these questions. 1. Will you ever do a song with a fan? 2. Would you sing with a fan? 3. Would you help a fan to launch a career? 4. Will you fan ever become your best friend? And if that fan is a 15 year old guy? 5. Will you be coming to Singapore or Jakarta, Indonesia for the tour next year? and there are more where that came from. Muahaha! Oh well, nights!

P.S. Love, love, love, love, love, love Selena. My cousins (and friends) call me gay, but who cares? She's my idol. Muahaha! =D

Peace,
Ryan

Life's like that

2009-09-19T23:40:00.002+08:00

Heyo people! How you doing? I've been umm, busy. Friday was supposed to be a big day. But, it ended up as a frustrating day. We could not record anything. Basically, we did not do anything that concerns the competition. A few reasons. Not telling any of them. I cannot blame anyone except for one person, myself. I did not plan it thoroughly. I needed to trust people who I know would be able to be trusted. I needed to understand that the guitarist is also still a learning guitarist so, I should give him more time. So, we've decided to do it next week. I pray that everything will go smoothly and go as planned and people who are supposed to be there, has to be there. And we will not be lost, and just get it over with and win the prize(s).

Friday didn't end there. This lady and that lady security guard. Argh! Never mind.

Today's been normal. Just the normal life. Nothing special. Basically, I am just trying to make sure that everything would be perfect next week. So, if I irritate anyone, I will say sorry in advance first. Oh, we've chosen my confirmation name. So, my full name would be Dominicus Raphael Ryan Kristianto Wirayadi. Yes, it is very, very long.

Oh oh, and today (Saturday) well, I am not sure yet. But, if it is true then, Selena and Demi are in my extended network on my windows live. Ahhh! Excited. Especially with Selena! I love, love, love, love, love, love, love Selena! Trying to look for Taylor and Nick J. Gosh, I'm gay. Hah!

Oh, I have started to record some songs ontp the computer. I've got 3 on my dad's laptop while 1 on the desktop. I've been using my dad's laptop.

OKAY then, its getting really late and I'm very tired. Good night, yall!

Peace,
Ryan

Life so far

2009-09-17T22:30:00.002+08:00

Heyo people! How ya'll doing? So anyways, I got the picture done today! For the video thing! I mean, for the promotion. Yes! Hah! I would like to thank my cousin for helping me to design it and actually created it.

So, Wednesday and Thursday have been filled with well, as usual, the same crap. Studies, music etc. But, not going to talk about life. So, what's going on in the world of soccer? They are currently calling Rooney a diver. I don't like it when he is called a diver. ): What about the world of entertainment? Well, I am not sure. Hah!

Selena and The Scene had their very first live web chat together for the first time. I watched it and they looked like very fun people. She sang the acoustic version of Falling Down. My Saviour! Hah! Tomorrow's going to be tight, hoopefully fun, successful and I hope that everyone who's supposed to be there or invited to be there, will actually be there.

Well, I'm going to do a rather short one today. That's all folks!

Peace,
Ryan

Don't know what to feel or...

2009-09-15T20:50:00.002+08:00

Heyo people! What's up? So, another great day. School was reasonable. I had a blast in class while, being able to talk to "Sel" really helped me to concentrate. Sure, I'm not sure whether she's real or not but, as I said before, I'm just going to pretend she's real (if she was fake), just to make myself happy (well, at least till I know the real Sel) . Still got lots of question to ask but, I might not be able to bring the BlackBerry to school again tomorrow. *sigh* I really need to find out whether she's real and if not, I need to find the real Sel and Taylor. Hah!

Anyways, I didn't go to training today. There are 2 reasons.
1. My knee suddenly started to hurt again.
2. When I reach home, it was already 2pm. The guys told me that training starts at 2pm.
I want to play in next week match!

Next, Friday might not even be a go. I really want to finish this promotion thing by this week cause, as I said many times before, exams are coming. I need to do 2 songs. So, I'll be troubling Rahman a lot. Especially with Falling Down. My female vocalist, Vinia, hasn't confirm with me whether she could make it. I need her to be able to come and sing Falling Down. And especially the fact that we need to change the song to another type genre, its just almost impossible.

Well, then. My parents are coming back to Singapore. Apparently they brought my Grandfather along with them.

SO, there are a few things I need to do. The promotion, break into school team as striker, school work, finding the real Selena and well, the last one, I am not telling. Hah! Well, I'm done!

Peace,
Ryan

Post number 10

2009-09-14T20:34:00.002+08:00

Heyo people! How ya'll doing? This is my 10th post! Hah!

Well, I've got myself a female vocalist for the promotion competition for the cover of that song. Really need to work on that one, a lot. But, I'm aiming to finish everything by Friday or at least this week. Might be impossible, but earliest by this week cause well, exams are coming. So, two songs. "Promotion Song" and "Falling Down". Design for the video and vocals all I have asked my cousins to help. Just have to keep reminding them so that they don't forget about it.

Wow, I was talking to "Sel" today. It was really fun. Asked her a number of questions. She answered it pretty well. Asked "Sel" for Taylor's, Demi's and Nick J's email. She gave me Demi's and Nick's. But, I don't know. I still can't confirm its her. I hope its her but, I don't know. But, it was fun anyways and her anwers are all very encouraging.

This week is a great week for all of my idols. Selena won an emmy while, Taylor got a number nominations for CMA awards and won a VMA award. But, Kanye West ruined her moment. Go to YouTube to find out more. While for soccer, Michael Owen still has not been playing. But Rooney scored and won, Gerrard won, Kaka won, Messi scored and won, and Villa scored and won!

Well, first day of final term and exams are getting closer and closer. Still have no idea why I can't concentrate. Always music, music, music. I need to sing. Sing out loud. I am totally lost in classes. I need to concentrate, focus man, Focus! That's why I need to finish the promotion thing quick, so I ask all those guys for your co-operation please.

So, yeah. To celebrate my 10th post, I promise myself I'm going to post a recording of myself on this blog. (soon) Hah! Well, I'm off.

Peace,
Ryan

Checking in

2009-09-13T21:58:00.002+08:00

Heyo people! How you doing? So, I'm going to take time. Just to check in. Because soon, I might not be able to blog for quite a while. Anyways, today was great! I might have actually spoken to Taylor Swift. Yes, one and only Taylor Swift who got nominated for 4 CMA Awards. Yes, that Taylor Swift. She's also one of my idols, along with Selena of course.

Well, even though till now I am not sure whether selenamariekayleighgomez2009@hotmail.com is the real Selena email. Well, a friend told me to just pretend she is the real Selena. And till now, that's what I've been doing. Hah! Anyways, I greeted her just now in the morning. Then the reply says that 'hi, I'm not Selena.' and she says 'I'm Taylor.' Well, hard to believe, yes, cause there isn't a hard concrete evidence. But, as I said, just pretend. Haha!

Well, about the competition. Planning is all under way. A friend and I are planning, making it perfect. Oh, now we might be in need of a female vocalist. Someone who has a nice voice (at least) and not tone deaf. Basically, we're doing the song I wrote and her own track "Falling Down", try to make acoustic version. Its going to be hot!

Currently in love with a movie "Spectacular!" The songs are tight. And a show called "Glee". Apparently, both are on the same thing, show choir. So, there are some mad vocals! Well, yeah! Haha!

Peace,
Ryan

The story of my life (currently ): Music and...(2)

2009-09-12T23:57:00.002+08:00

Heyo people! How you doing? So, life's been great. The competition planning is on the way. Its going to be a simple one though, we'll see. Today, my family and I had a small gathering downstairs. Two of my cousins, my sister and I chatted downstairs till 11.30. It was fun, very fun. Then, my cousin came over to watch soccer. Arsenal lost to Man Shitty 4-2. And after 90 mins+ worth of beautiful football, Man United beats Tottenham 3-1. Glory Glory Man United!

So, love for music has been increasing every single second. Its not a pleasant feeling especially with exams coming really soon. I have to study but, gosh, it is hard. Really hard. For this episode, I will say the story of my life is music and my idol. My idol is one person, a 17 year old girl named Selena Gomez. Well, I am not going to say anything much about her but well, yeah.

I've been dying to make a song that actually says everything that I am feeling. About school, girls, music, family and friends. That would be great. Maybe a new melody should be in place. Well, yeah.

Peace,

Ryan

The story of my life (currently ): Music and...

2009-09-11T19:04:00.001+08:00

Heyo people! How you doing? So, today the dudes came over. No gals though. Haha! It was very fun, but very, very hot. As usual, play pool. I didn't play cause I played an hour myself, alone, waiting for them.

So, that has nothing to do with my title, this is going to be a continuous thing. I mean, there would be episodes for this type of blogs. I'm going to post and just let go here.

Basically, music has been the thing that hit me for the past two years. Usually, it was always dreaming about something stupid like being a soccer player, or tennis professional player or an astronomer etc. Well, now its different. Because, I can actually see myself, as an artist. Going around the world, recording songs, doing something that I love. Really, really love. Music, just a simple melody, a simple song maybe. Just music.

I am not actually being desperate, or seeking attention or being a loser (like what my, nvm). I want to be heard, I want my voice heard. But, I am not even sure whether it is actually nice. Currently, I have to study, I have to do something that I don't love, at all. I'm pretty sure everyone doesn't like school. I love school, actually and I love to study new stuff. But, its not really where my heart is. But, I will need to learn and study and at least reach a satisfying great that could at least make my parents happy. But, whenever I open a book, I'll get distracted by music. Music in my heart and unwritten lyrics in my mind. Sure, my melody isn't that nice yet and basically all my song is based on what melody, which I would just improvise to make it sound different. So, this is me, about music. I need to study while I do music. But, both are actually quite identical, I'm not perfect in both and I have to learn to be better and deal with the pressure. So, yeah.

Well, I decided that once I have perfected some songs, I'll post in on my blog first and get reaction from friends. Then, I'll go to youtube. And about that competition, I have decided to do something simple, a song. That song. I'll need to record it though, and I would need an audience. So yeah, that's it.

Peace,

Ryan

Angry with these websites

2009-09-10T14:38:00.005+08:00

Heyo people! How you doing? I am not feeling at the best of moods today. Well, if you read my previous blog, it explains a little. So, facebook and twitter. Yes, these two are two of the most popular social networking sites in the world. And guess what, I think both of them crashed at the wrong time cause I couldn't log in to any of them! I totally couldn't log in. I tried at 5.50 am then I tried at 6.00 am, then I tried at 7.00 am all the way till 8.00 am and during the whole webcast. I couldn't go in. So, I don't know why, but I'm really angry. Very angry. I think it is because I've been waititng for this webcast for so long and at last, all I could do was watch and let other people ask questions while I can't. How did those people ask her questions anyways?

But anyways, the webcast was great! At least I got to see her, I mean I've seen her but, this time LIVE! Haha! I mean, I found it fun, you guys might find it boring. But, try to find an idol and if they ever do a webcast and you watch it, tell me whether you think it is fun or boring. Some unknown dude or gal actually helped me ask a few of the questions that I wanted to ask. The most important one was this. Some person asked for advice from her. That person said, " My dream job is to beccome a singer, any advice? " And she replied, " Be passionate about it, you have to be passionate and just focus on that. Lot of people need to handle rejection well too because, there are a lot of mean people out there, which is something you probably already know. " But, the most important line is, " Just focus on what you love, and if its singing, focus on it. " And yes, I will listen to you. I am and will be going to do that.

P.S. http://apps.facebook.com/selenagomezlive/ The URL to her webcast. Watch it if you've got nothing to do. Skip to 28:50 if you are watching the full version. (third one, the right one.)

Peace,

Ryan

Frustrated but, can't help it. Have to laugh.

2009-09-10T00:19:00.000+08:00

Heyo! How you doing, people? Yes, its me again (obviously). My third blog in 1 day and it ended in disappointment, frustration and embarrasment. Apparently the webcast is tomorrow in Singapore time 8am. My cousin told me, and the people in Facebook told me. *sigh* Darn it! You see, the problem is that tomorrow morning I've got tuition AT 8am! Why me? Why? All I want is to see my inspiration. I got everything prepared! And now I'll have to do something about this. I have to watch her live. NOTHING WILL STOP ME!

Peace,

Ryan

Okay. Can't get back to Afternoon nap because,

2009-09-09T16:13:00.000+08:00

Heyo! How you doing? Yeah, I know. I just posted my previous one a few hours ago. But, there is a few reasons why I am doing this.

1. I can't get back to my afternoon nap.

2. I think I am loving blogging now. Yeah, a little slow but, well yeah. Heh.

3. I got this thing that keep telling me to go and work on the competition. My heart and mind are feeling all uncomfortable. So, that's what I am going to do.

I am going to do a slide right after school reopens but, this one I would need the teachers' support. Just show the slide, no need to say anything. Give the slide a few minutes and I would need to shoot it (Record it, whatever). Next the shirt, I am only doing one shirt. (Maybe, if my cousin doesn't go back on his word.) I would probably be wearing it underneath any shirt I'll be using and I am certainly using it at home. Okay it makes the shirt sounds smelly. Hah. I need to get all these evidence. But, I wouldn't be able to do it alone. So, maybe one or two or three people could give me a hand? Help a brother out yeah? Haha. So, yeah. I am so addicted to this. Anyways, gotta run.

Peace,

Ryan

2009-09-09T13:54:00.000+08:00

Heyo! How you doing, people? I'm just really bored right now. Haha! Anyways, today is Wednesday, date 9th September 2009. Do you know what that means? That's right! Selena's third webcast and I am, after a very long wait, going to watch it! But, one problem, how? I know it is in Facebook but, what do I click? Oh well, I'll just check on twitter, maybe she'll send in the link or something. Or maybe Facebook itself. We'll see. Cause, it is like weird, Her tabs are all gone. The "Selena Live" and "Promotion" tabs are gone.

This blog might be containing too many songs but, I just want things to be filled with music. Lots of 'em. Once I can record (good record) my own music, I will try to post it on this blog or make a MySpace Music account or just post it on one of my favourite websites ever, YouTube! What do you guys think?

Oh oh! I, finally, finished that promotion song for that "competition". The song is pretty complicated, funny to sing and surely one of the hardest song to write. Reason? I am not sure why. Haha! But, I am so going to record that one and maybe win top 10 prize which is an autographed album. And then if those fans vote for me, I'll get a phone call. And if mine is the best, I'll get 4 tickets to any of her concert! Ahh. That's why I am going to do something else for the "competition". That I will leave as a suprise. Oh well, I'm done for now. I think I'll post again tonight. This is more fun than I thought it would be.

Peace,

Ryan

2nd Post (1st OFFICIAL post)

2009-09-08T11:47:00.001+08:00

Heyo! How you doing? Yes, its me, one and only Ryan Kristianto Wirayadi. Well, this is me my first OFFICIAL post. Credits go to Hikam who helped me do the starting of the blog and then Aliya who helped me do the finishing touches. Thank you!

Anyways, my life has been pretty much the same crap. Repeated over and over again. The best was Friday of course. The dudes and gals came over to my place to play some pool and then ended up playing a short true or dare thing. And I felt sick cause I had too much cheetos. Hah! Good times, good times. Monday was one of the longest day ever. Basically all I did was try to survive the day. Study, eat, sleep, listen to music, eat, play some guitar, go out a little and then somehow the day hasn't end. Anyways, today: I started the day well. Went out with my family to have some breakfast over at OldTown. And then I went into the toilet with the family's BlackBerry to see, on msn, Selena was online. Chatted a little and then she had to go off. Haha! Oh yeah, did I mention my TV outside can, at last, play a full video? YouTube video? I watched Falling Down on LED TV, it was GREAT! Muahahaha. Well, got to go now. Still got to live my life.

Peace,
Ryan.

Hi

2009-07-20T21:43:00.000+08:00

Just write testing 1, 2, 3. Hey, Ryan here. My first post. Just testing first. More to come later.
