5-minute Quickie.

just a quick update to wish everyone a happy chinese new year (if i've not already done so in person HAHA!).

the laptop has been down for the past week and a half now...the adaptor blew. which doesn't make sense cos aren't adaptors built for the sole purposes of now blowing?! anyway, until i get a new one, i shall not be going online (unless i'm leaching off someone else's, like nikki's here, for eg.).

and frankly, i've got no desire to blog at the moment because being back home, driving down familiar roads and smelling and tasting ALL THINGS GOOD is quite overwhelming and my senses can only take THAT much. but the weirdest thing is, i've got so many things to write about that i might have to backlog them. ah.

anyway, i've only got a month left here (actually less than a month) so i'm gonna make damn good use of it damn it!

bye.

songs i've been listening to A LOT recently.

your boy is like a memory
some sense of touch and a melody
your girl, she's a renegade
a hurricane that keeps your there, safe

look up, rain is falling
looks like love

Stars - Look up

i'm an angel bored like hell
and you're a devil meaning well
you steal my lines and you strike me dumb
come raise your flag upon me

cause you're the storm that i've been needing.

The Cardigans - You're the storm.

is this the kingdom or just a hit n' miss?
a misdirection, most in all this desperation
you push until you're shoving
you bend until you break.

Switchfoot - The blues.

and under buried trees
we found
all our conversations ever on a tape
all our recent tracks we haven't yet left
a single word for all events
unsung songs of extraordinary thought

a memory that was just about to start.

Deloris - Everything ever.

everything's fine except you've got that look in your eyes
when i'm telling a story
and you find it boring
and everytime we fight
i know it's not right
everytime that you're upset
and i smile
i know i should forget

but i can't.

Kate Nash - Foundations

this is where your sanity gives in and love begins
never lose your grip
don't trip
don't fall

you'll lose it all.

The Cardigans - Paralyzed.

but you stopped yourself and kissed me
and i grabbed your lips and told you
i know, i know, i know
i feel the same way too

and everyday, it's changed since then
in every way, i've changed since then

Star - First five times

36 hours to go.

i'm flying home tomorrow and for once, i am relieved. i mean, shit, no urchins to worry about for a whole month?! GET OUT, WHAT ARE YOU...KIDDING ME?!

but no, seriously though. i am really relieved. and the funniest thing is, my bag is still quite empty. maybe it's because i'm only gonna be back for a month therefore i have this mentality that there is no need for me to bring my whole life and a bit more back with me to Kajang. there's a big gaping hole in the bottom left-hand side of my already-quite-tiny suitcase, and i don't know what to fill it up with!

clothes? shoes? fruits? chocolates? instant rockstar hair wax?

the options are endless.

anyway, i'll be back in less than 48 hours. quite surreal, actually. i think i might've gotten used to living alone...because that's what i've been doing for the past month and a half. i can actually see myself living alone years down the road; just me, my laptop and my guitar...and food, of course.

aiya, stop ranting la. i'm coming home. party time.
