Dwelling in a song

Posted on Wednesday June 24, 2009 in Music., Web.

I have the super-human ability to make every song into a theme song of any scene that comes into view, especially when I am on the move (on-board the train, car, plane or on foot).

For example. Along the highway, the music of Annie Lennox brings about powerful tossing emotions. I can see the male and female leads in the passing apartments, I can hear their rehearsed conversations, I can feel that long drawn-out helplessness.

Lately, I have been listening to Zee Avi. Not the album but the other songs that she is sharing on Youtube. I am watching one whole feature film in my head right now.

Catching on

Posted on Friday June 12, 2009 in Health, Web.

Thanks to Jasmin (@fancypiece), Twitter has made my workday less productive. No seriously, updates are fun, especially if you are one who can sit in a cafe for hours just to follow a saga (read: #awaresg). It’s like catching the blue bird flu.

On a flu-related note, H1N1 has made history. It’s officially a pandemic season. Gotta get more masks and wipes for the upcoming trip(s).

This post is made to test twittertools. Ignore at your convenience.

Move along

Past couple of weeks have been sobering. It has annoyingly made me toss and think about the transience of life events, direction and ultimately, existence.

Of course, Saving Gaia is probably a greater burden/ cause/ publicity than a person’s selfish wonderment of what can be done better, or just differently. One decision leads to another. I learned that reading Walt Disney books where the development of the story depends on your choice for Mr Scrooge. With books, you can always go to the alternative ending in the book. No question asked.

Sitting at the wake, my eyes warmed to tears that I did not realize that I have for her.

You swam, in synchrony
through the night
In the rush, we dived.
Sorry for not being where,
this night, the night your eternity lies.
