waking up to drops of jupiter upon my head

i know i should be working now.

But i heard a song of old, one that reminded me of times i've yearned for, something that lingers where no one traces nor fathomed. It was frozen in time, but never lost.

Play on. Let your melodious tracks run upon my heart, through my head, and let my fingers bring out the best of it.

Let's do it once more. It will be good.

Blog dear blog

it has been quite a while since i last dropped by. To be exact, it is 5 months and 2 days. Why the hiatus? I don't know. Maybe it's facebook, maybe it's twitter, maybe it is because I am swarmed and overwhelmed in this digital social mayhem that i forgot how i used to blog so diligently..

Recently I have just installed wordpress locally on my laptop. Pretty nifty, everything was a breeze and before i knew it, WP is up and running. The WP's blog inclination over blogspot is perhaps it's popularity in the Web designer's arsenal of choice. The amount of online tutorial, the galleries of WP-based websites, the ever flourishing population.. Not to mention the neat little iphone app. Wordpress, is perhaps, the way to go.

So why am i blogging still in this almost forsaken blog?

I guess some things can never be replaced. The kind of information that this place holds. My outlet when I am at my wit's ends, colliding into the mental block, therapeutic moments of text-uating thoughts. It bore the brunt of my pent up frustrations and emotions. Where else can boast a database of my entire active army days?

Then there is the soothing voice of J.mraz. It makes me feel good. i have refreshed my blogspot several times, lulling myself to the melodious drone. i can't seem to get enough of that accoustic set. maybe there was this subdued chanting that traps me mentally, making me a slave to self.

i love this place, and i wish i will never have to stop blogging here. But alas, life sure do know how to tease me silly when i least expect it.

Oh well, sweet good night to everyone in the earth's shadow..

Lovya all~

Cheers

live work love life overseas

i've got this secret desire, to be able to work on overseas projects for short stint like a few months at a go. to embrace the culture, to live my life to the fullest. to see the world and people i never knew. no, it does not need to be paris or japan, just somewhere different. 

i will jog in the morning, have my breakfast by the river, work through lunch, snack on chips overlooking the city, join my friends for a hearty dinner and end it with a beer at a local pub with live bands, and on alternate nights, i will run my bass for a local band. i will catch up with my beloved over phone/msn/webcam, pen my thoughts, play the guitar, say a prayer and head for bed. Over the weekend i will do sports and community activities in the morning, laze around on a beach somewhere, go around taking random shots, and finally complete the day with some arty farty parties / functions on sat nights. 

how nice, how far. 

how bob? 

just a little green, a little jaded

it's 1.50am and i can't bring myself to sleep. 

i can't bear the thought of laying down.. and watching the day pass me by. maybe.. just maybe, there is something that i could have done during these few mins before i doze off. But i don't know what. I can't decide.. i'm tired. maybe it's the flu. maybe coz i'm just expecting myself to fly when i'm just.. crawling. 

i guess i shdnt have joined today's gathering. all the bankers and finance freaks. it made me look.. different. 

i know. i just need to rant. i'm being emo here. but hey, emo drives me to certain creativity too. when oppressed, my conscious mind takes a back seat and the sub conscious takes over.. subjecting me to the consequences of the resulting course of actions. sometimes shitty, sometimes shittier. 

i shall not lay waste before the com any further..

goodnite.
