On Eargasm (with JMs) and Scumbag Body Clock

Yeah, yeah... Been gone for so long and now I'm back with a vengeance. lol Not really. Back with a bit of headache from not being able to sleep because I've been messing up with my schedule so my body clock's messing up with me as well.

But right now I'm in the mood for sharing some of my favorite musicians. It's because of these guys why I'm still thankful for the existence of music. These days, many people mistaken music for bullshit. While there's nothing we can really do about other people's preference, I sure hope they don't try to sabotage the real wonders of real music. Now here are some of the real musicians (people who write their own sensible songs and perform their music from the heart, usually with instruments, without being annoying lol) for me:

Jason Mraz + James Morrison

Don't these guys have sexy voices and songs truly worth listening to? :)



Jon Mclaughlin

He's a real charmer; for me, that is. haha The voice, the piano, and the passion (and yeah, the appeal haha)... *awwww* :) I will always love Bruno Mars, but I'll never get tired of listening to Jon.

This one with Sara Bareilles, also a favorite artist, is one of my all-time heart-melting songs.



And in terms of bands, One Republic will always hit my heart's charts along with Lifehouse, Coldplay, The Fray and The Script. haha



But hey, who can ever beat the kind of eargasm the Queen can provide? lol I grew up listening to them because of my Uncle. Anyway, these guys are legends so any argument is invalid. haha



(I'm actually tempted to embed the Happy Feet version of Under Pressure. haha)

If Tomorrow Never Comes :(

This is really sad, but most of us are like him. Some were not even given the chance to say all those things their loved ones need to hear before they leave this place. I just wish I have the courage to be that outspoken of my feelings to my family. Yes, I'm frank and open to my friends and other people; but not to those people who I really care about the most. I don't know why, but words just fail me along with my actions.

Back On Track

Motivation is what gets you started, habit is what keeps you going.

Indeed, and as of the moment, I feel that surge of motivation. I should start working really hard for all or most of the things that I intend to accomplish. There's so much that I want to do that it's giving me the chills.

And while some people decide to change because they are bitter, jealous or angry at something or someone, I will become a better person because that's what I want and that's what's gonna make me happy. It's for the better. It is never too late to start something new or continue what you had taken for granted.

Sweet Escape

Right now, all I want to do is relax and do some 'soul-searching' in one of these serene places...

From The Odd Life of Timothy Green

From Disney's The Secrets of the Magic Gourd

I also like the location of the film--The Lucky One. And because Summer is near...

You Can If You Will :)

I thought I'm not in good shape to work today. Actually, I should be working at this time. But I just couldn't stop myself from starting up something I know I should've done a long time ago--writing stories from ideas that randomly comes up my mind. I have a lot of them, then and now. Sometimes I note them down, most of the time I rely on my sloppy memory hoping I could harvest or re-trace those ideas should the right moment comes. Now I realized I should 'act' as soon as I'm struck or overflowing with creative juices.

For now, I'll make some drafts of those stories which I'm hoping I could finish well. I don't aim for novels or whatnots; just stories good enough for sharing. Wish me luck! *fingers crossed* :D

Faith in Humanity = Restored

I have this sort of on and off relationship with the so-called faith in humanity. I've always thought that the world has already ended... ever since many people in the world have gone overboard with their nasty deeds... I didn't want to lose faith in humanity--not while I'm still alive and I know a lot of great, kindhearted people.

Maybe I started feeling pathetic when I experienced something heartbreaking, which I now realized is not worth the pain and the worries. Now that I've decided to move on and give people a chance, I'm beginning to appreciate every small act of kindness and love and respect. My faith in humanity has been somewhat restored, especially with the help of the following videos and images:

It doesn't matter what others do to you. It's how you respond to them that counts.



A simple act of kindness and every little thing we do to help... they have this domino or ripple-like effect...



God communicates... if only we just listen...



Being kind and helpful is not something to be ashamed of.  Do it even if others don't. Be the example.

 But humanity still got a long way to go. My heart bleeds for this. Also because I don't know if I am strong enough to be the change that I want to see in the world. Hopefully, small things really count...

When Gluttony Attacks

At last! I have finally decided to post something gastronomic...

And of course, I am first going to mention the awesomeness of my favorite couple: May and Rey Prader.
