Recently dug out some old tracks from an album i had from my cousin. Songs from Secret Garden.
Two types of songs that can make one fall asleep: one super bad and boring. The other super fantastically smoothing that calms one down.
Secret Garden belongs to the Latter. So much emotions in just a few instruments that can be conveyed. No voices nor any singing, just violin and a couple of instruments but yet if you sit down and listen carefully, your tears would just flow. It's been some time since a song can do that. The last was Josh Groban and then George Michael. But this is absolutely beautiful.
Atlantia, Adagio, NOcturn are the first few tracks of the album.
best to listen on a rainy day or cold weather, if you want to ease into your bed and with a drink in hand.

exercise
I'm begining to love workout. Sundays ABT, Monday Aerboics /swimming, Wed aerobics, thurs swimming sat gym. And in case one gets the perception that i'm ultra fit, nope. In fact i'm still far from ideal.
Although my original motive and aim is to slim down, but now, i jsut love the feeling of sweating out in a good workout, the feeling after the workout. .. .. afterall, exercise is about feeling good about yrself.
actually recently i love the feeling of continuing on to torture and beat up my body through work outs, at end of the day I wanted to know that I have the discipline to continue on in a work out consistently.. Well, if the end prodcut is a slimmer body, why not, that's a bonus. though now the bonus still evades me like hell.

Prayer.
God, You are my anchor and tower, that's what i always say. But Lord, I think I've grown too far and too caught up in the things of the world.
Make my life a prayer to you
I wanna do what you want me to
I want to shine the light You gave,
through Your Son, You Sent to Save us
from ourselves and our despair.
It comforts me
to know You're really there.
...
I want to tell the world out there,
You're not some fable or fairy tale
that I've made up, inside my head,
You're God the Son,
You've Risen from the Dead.

Let's get cosy in the train
Morning peak hour for some of us is a super common scene, seeing who is the first to 'chiong' in or chiong out. some stuck to the pole like as though they will freaking fall with out the pole. Some, in the sardine packed train, which you are already stuffing your face into the person's hair in front of you cos it's so packed, had to act 'chio' and fling her hair out into your face, machiam like she in MTV or something. Wah liew..
Now, there was a time when it's so packed i had my face plastered to the door already and inside everybody is sniffing somebody else's hair or back already and somebody who's trying to get in from outside, i dunno whether to laugh or cry or be angry, still say "excuse me". Imagine the scene, the train is throughly packed, you can't even squeeze a kid in and at the door, there are tonnes of ppl who think they are stick thin trying to squeeze their butt in stil say "pls move in" or"excuse me". I looked in, surveyed the sardines in the can and i wondered aloud, "to where??" thankfully the lady got it and decided not to pursue. whew...!
They must have thought i'm not made of solid matter but of air who can be compressed further in in a fixed space. Somebody give them some science lesson please.. hehe.
