courage is the triumph of the soul

-anything you want, Jason Mraz

i know none of you care but I HAVE DOWNLOADED JASON MRAZ'S BEAUTIFUL MESS - LIVE ON EARTH.





basically its a live album from the gratitude cafe tour. and you know how mraz live > mraz studio :D



all the fuzzy, audience recorded versions of the songs i have from his live performances that i've grown to love are now technically kinda obsolete cos i have the clean professionally recorded versions now :D

happy happy joy joy. i almost feel like i'm there, but at the same time its no where near the real experience, honestly.

i feel like his voice is suffering from overuse though wtf.

how do you download a whole album on shitty connection?
forget to turn off your computer for a day. and a half.
i'm so sorry my lovely hunk.
of metal.

and since we're on this topic i might as well be shot of this.

i want a hula hoop!

and not the rattan kind, these shiny pretty ones!















from one mandy's hoop factory

okay la obviously i'm not that cool, i got it from jason's blog.




















it seems they've been taking up the hoops, they hula hoop in their free time on tour and apparently even on stage when they do Butterfly. i think he hoops when he sings how cool is that :D

he. has a knack of finding alot of these quirky, cool personal things.

and speaking of things i want,
off the top of my head, somewhat in order.

monday, 12.30pm to arrive like yesterday
during which time i will get into a car and get out of this place and into shopping :D :D
lots of awesome clothes and bags and shit
great time out with the girls and a boy (there for more than protection, i swear)
(kidding chuen. you know you're the bestbouncerhealthysnacker :D)
two hedgehogs (name ideas being sonic, knuckles, spike or durian :D)

just. to be able to breathe properly in my head again :)

lilmissgreen,

i love you but i'm telling you have too many inner demons! i'm glad you're sorting them out, untangling everything thread by thread (something i can never do to save myself) and finding your perspective in all of it. i just want you to remember in spite of it all, it is the journey that counts. keep your eyes wide open through it all, keep your senses engaged. its good to stop and ponder, like you say we all need assurance from time to time, in the laughter that erupts after our punchline is spoken, in the pauses for thought, in the leaning in of a person to better hear what you have to say. but when you think too hard, or stop to think too long, the average action of someone else to care diminishes to something no longer substantial - in steps doubt.


don't second guess. don't stop to analyse. don't replay situations in your head. don't allow room for distortion. don't let it settle and grow roots so deep its burned into the back of your mind. don't push, but don't let go. instead, keep going, keep remembering it will be okay, keep remembering there are so many people who love you, most importantly that you love yourself. in the eyes of many, including yourself, you are great. you don't take, you earn. you don't hold back, you give. you don't exist, you live. you don't need what you don't have, but you get it because you love someone and someone loves you back. relationships, regardless of what kind, ignite with the crossing of paths and the intertwining of roads. should your roads take you elsewhere, so be it, you have so much to look forward to. and you look forward to it eyes wide, senses plugged in.

in all your efforts, struggles and strife, promise me you will have fun. that you will, from the very bottom of a dark, deep well, look up. promise me you will get soaked to the bone, dart from shelter to shelter, break your heel and scrape your knee, and laugh at your silliness as you dust yourself off. needless to say, i will not be holding back any of my laughter when you recount your stories to me :)



wow, did i really just say all that?

random thought: my blog has shown no sign of activity for too long. mch people you're there right speak up la! no one cares about me anymore is it!

random thought: dled the fame monster too. my conclusion - lady gaga is a very kinky girl (she's a very kinky girl, the kind you won't bring home to mother, she's a superfreak! haha rick james) but she knows what she's doing and she has the balls (pun not intended) to do it and i will spare playlist slots only for her.

random thought: MCH CHINESE DAMN HARD CAN. paksa people to memorise 230 idioms and their meanings and their authors and the books in which they appeared so that we can answer what 5 questions??? don't even get me started on the ancient writings, might as well be reciting german can.

sigh.

must. keep. going.

















one day, one day.


meantime, bedtime.

love-ah-love-ah-love, love-ah-love-ah-love.
