YOU ARE NOT ALONE
- Michael Jackson -

(1958 - 2009)


The King of Pop, Michael Jackson, is dead. The epitome of a true talented, yet troubled soul. He defines a generation....my generation.

May he rest in peace.


....update....Charlie's Angel Farrah Fawcett dies at 62.

MAD WORLD
- Tears For Fears / Gary Jules / Adam Lambert -

....to my friends, especially Kupps, who's mad about this song....


All around me are familiar faces
Worn out places, worn out faces
Bright and early for their daily races
Going nowhere, going nowhere
Their tears are filling up their glasses
No expression, no expression
Hide my head I want to drown my sorrow
No tomorrow, no tomorrow

And I find it kinda funny
I find it kinda sad
The dreams in which I'm dying

Are the best I've ever had
I find it hard to tell you
I find it hard to take
When people run in circles
It's a very, very
Mad world
Mad world

Children waiting for the day they feel good
Happy Birthday, Happy Birthday
Made to feel the way that every child should
Sit and listen, sit and listen
Went to school and I was very nervous
No one knew me, no one knew me
Hello teacher tell me what's my lesson
Look right through me, look right through me

And I find it kinda funny
I find it kinda sad
The dreams in which I'm dying
Are the best I've ever had
I find it hard to tell you
I find it hard to take
When people run in circles
It's a very, very
Mad world
Enlarge your world

Mad world....

MOVE, SHAKE, DROP
- Pitbull -


I'm writing this a tortured soul.

Nick, honey, I adore you to death, but how could you?

You put this enormous weight on my shoulders, you ripped my heart in two, my hands are trembling, I can't feel my feet.

Oh, the deception!

But I'll persevere, for bootyliciousness is to be earned.

A SHOULDER TO CRY ON
- Tommy Page -


Why TP?

I told a friend today while I listened to the undeniably depressing yet entertaining Nirvana back in those days, I also listened to TP so that I'd have (girl)friends.

He laughed.

I was serious.

I had the album. Well, there were no CDs then, but in my possession I had, and may still have, the RM10 ORIGINAL cassette.

Looking at the bright side, I'm open to most music genres nowadays. TP saved me from being forever grim and bitter (if I look it, it's the Kurt sulk)

Recently, I even opened up to Britney Spears but alas, her affinity to mime in all her 'live' performances, bar none, puts me off. Credit to the musical genius(es) behind her comeback. I gave her a chance to at least act like she's singing, and she disappoints me.

If I had to put together my ultimate mixed tape, I'll probably include: -

1. Simon & Garfunkel - Sound of Silence
2. Joni Mitchell - The Circle Game
3. Marvin Gaye - Let's Get It On
4. The Beatles - Across The Universe
5. Abba - Dancing Queen (roller skates & disco ball galore!)
6. The Buggles - Video Killed The Radio Star (it really did)
7. AC/DC - It's A Long Way To The Top (If You Wanna Rock 'n' Roll)
8. Guns n Roses - Since I Don't Have You (alternative: Used To Love Her)
9. Prodigy - Firestarter
10. Sade - Smooth Operator
11. Gin Blossoms - Til I Hear It From You
12. KT Tunstall - Black Horse and Cherry Trees
13. Flo Rida featuring T Pain - Low (ultimate get-your-ass-up-to-the-dance-floor song)

So, there you go, a snippet of my musical journey. I'd run out of tape by now, but if there was any space left, which song should make the cut for No. 14 you think?....

As Ms Spears grunts and gyrates: "Gimme more!"

COULD IT BE ANY HARDER
- The Calling -


It's been 2 weeks since I've moved back to the big city.

It's taking me longer than expected to get used to it all again. I was only away for a couple of years.

All at once I realise how much more expensive THIS city is (survey ain't far off), maybe I've grown stingy living in a quiet town, but I know for sure I am being very careful. I'm still recovering from the ridiculously priced waffle, and I'm secretly praying that Deb decides to fly back to Miri for the rest of her 5-MONTH holiday, so I don't need to spend more than I can save.

I can't even stand window-shopping anymore (gasp!). And people dress weird.

Neither does staying at the hotel for the whole month help that much. It's far from being homely, and I don't have enough space for my shoes!

So I do feel melancholy at times. Alone. Maybe I shouldn't convince Deb to fly back too soon after all.

To battle the yucky feeling, I keep myself busy, or try to. I've got my kitchen project going on, and work has been coming steadily. This week maybe I'll hit the gym again, get in shape for July (haha).

Gosh I miss my friends in Miri.

It's a good thing we had an Indian farewell before I left. One of those never-ending dinners and alcohol consuming sessions to celebrate the move and man, did I struggled to put up a brave front. Gradually it sunk in that I was really leaving, but it was still truly hard at the end too. Add was the first to make me really lose it. I didn't even get to see her wedding album!

I still hate farewells, be it mine or others. There's bound to be a chain reaction of tears.

The journey to recovery is not as simple.

Bad news is, I asked for it.

....there's even a tribute page of sorts, sweet and with all good intentions, but couldn't help but think that maybe I failed to attend my own funeral :)
