I woke up to a half dead blackberry, blinking away as if it’s life depended on it.

Occasionally, there are times where you look up to the heavens and say a prayer. Today was one of those days.

When the dust settled, everything was fine. Nothing was out of order.
Right after that, you silently cuss the bad luck that had just befallen you.

In 26days time, the year will be over. It’s usually around this time of the year that I customarily do my year in review thing, but maybe I’ll skip it this time around. I want to be able to look back over what transpired over the past 12months and be able to put on a smirk on my face. To be able to laugh over the silly. To remind myself of how I fought through the bad and still hung on.
Then again, what exactly do these reminiscing accomplish?
It appears to me now, that their primary function is just to satisfy our omnipresent need for ego stroking.

For the first time, I won’t be back home for NYE & CNY. There isn’t much to celebrate about, but I’ve experienced a newfound appreciation for family. The little things that matter most.
I need to take things step by step, one at a time.
The worst part about being a perfectionist, is the insatiable appetite for well, perfection. And therein lies my downfall at times.

I had the best sleep ever in weeks.
No more worrying about things in my head.
NOTHING.

Graduation is less than a month away, and until then, it’s going to be a plop-your-legs-up journey.

Has anyone noticed the amount of music on Hype Machine that’s being plugged in Gossip Girl lately?
I have to say, music director has extremely fab taste.

I’m putting 6bucks on the Xx to be up next.

So here I am mugging, when a song off jason lo’s sophomore album pops on my ipod. I absolutely love the malaysian music scene. It’s so much more vibrant and fresh when compared to the aussie stuff.

That got me thinking, why is it that post album #1, almost everyone goes to the shitter? Snow patrol is half there. Coldplay is way past the finish line. Should I even mention Linkin Park?

Yes I know almost all of the acts mentioned above are pop gigs. But hey! Jimmy eats world is still hanging on. So is sigur ros. So what gives?

I remember when we were gambling to win
Everybody else said better luck next time
I don’t wanna bend like the bad girls bend
I just wanna be your friend
Is it ever gonna be enough?

Is it ever gonna be enough?

METRIC – GOLD GUN GIRLS
This song would be so awesome on Guitar Hero. Guitar riffs. Mad drums. Pissed off neighbours.

Yeah. I’m kinda geeking it right now.
