coincidence much?

OK so I found this cool video while browsing KinkyBlueFairy which brought me to Stit:Stit, where I found said video. It was done for Native Son.


The music is a listen too, hey? I like it.

Song of the day: Imogen Heap - Hide and Seek

I was about to listen to that song when I got exciting news that my cousin proposed to his girlfriend. So...song of the day :) I now have two cousins, who happen to be brothers, engaged to their girlfriends. Congrats, you guys! This year is looking better and better.

Project Work-That-Butt-Off

cartoon found via google search

It's Day #1 of my home workout since I just got me a (2nd-hand) treadmill yesterday (yayyuhh). And I have to say that it's going to be a long and painful road to the day where I see any change in my body. But I'm not impatient, at least not anymore. Now that I actually have the treadmill I already feel confident that I will lose weight and keep fit and healthy. (slow down, tiger..) And yes, I'll admit that I'm not the type to check my weight everyday, so... I'll think about starting to do that. Here's to better days ahead.

Numbers are all there,
Sweat dripping from my temples
Feels good to be here.

A little workout haiku for ya. HAHA.

Listen to: Black Keys - Tighten Up > good workout song too :)

peace + love

awake but not sound

Can't sleep and listening to Old Brand New's Weekend Jukebox mix. It's such an awesome virtual playlist. Go ahead. Thanks to him, I got a listen to Portishead's stuff. I'm kept awake because I was talking to myself in my head too much. Plus, I had a nap in the evening. Also not forgetting my constantly thinking about when I will be ready for my graduation recital.
On another note, it amazes me how many people ask my impending graduation. And sometimes they ask me that every time I meet them. Wow. I'm always left dumbfounded which then gives them the impression that I'm actually just dumb and that's why I haven't graduated yet. Believe me, I'm counting the days myself so please stop asking. I will give you a heads up of one month so in the mean time, don't hold your breath.
It's hard for me to explain how different a music course is to say, a Law degree or Accounting or anything else, really. Maybe it's the course design in my university or maybe (hopefully?) that's just how music courses are in general. Music students will always (at least once) extend semesters. So the end date of their degree is never fixed. It's just the way it is. I do realize, however, that courses in public universities are set which makes it that much easier for students. But whatevs. I am where I am. Period. The only way to look is forward.

Listen to: Thee Midnighters - Town I Live In.
