Postal Service – Such Great Heights
I am thinking it’s a sign
that the freckles in our eyes
are mirror images
and when we kiss they’re perfectly aligned. Read the rest of this entry »
Only Hope
There’s a song that’s inside of my soul
It’s the one that I’ve tried to write over and over again
I’m awake in the infinite cold
But You sing to me over and over and over againSo I lay my head back down
And I lift my hands
and pray to be only Yours
I pray to be only Yours
I know now you’re my only hope
Sing to me the song of the stars
Of Your galaxy dancing and laughing
and laughing again
When it feels like my dreams are so far
Sing to me of the plans that You have for me over again
So I lay my head back down
And I lift my hands and pray
To be only yours
I pray to be only yours
I know now you’re my only hope
I give You my destiny
I’m giving You all of me
I want Your symphony
Singing in all that I am
At the top of my lungs I’m giving it back
So I lay my head back down
And I lift my hands and pray
To be only yours
I pray to be only yours
I pray to be only yours
I know now you’re my only hope
Of headphones and traipsing across town
Today was the first day out with Student Councillors after a very very long time. The first time we went out without even mentioning promos. The first time we went out to do something to do with music.
The journey began at school. Attempting to study in school, I decided to go out for lunch with a few of the councillors. Hsuan Te, Jomaine and Gabriel. Together we make the intial foursome who went to Jack’s Place to have a good great lunch! Ate NZ Sirloin Steak broiled with red wine for S$9.50. Fabulous stuff.
So we met Shane and headed down to Gramophone to shop for Shane’s CDs. Totaled up to probably around 60 bucks?
Then we went straight to City Hall. Gallivating across streets and treating like the whole world was ours, we went to Adelphi. Well, they all say this place is the place to go if you’re looking for audiophile stuff. Or is it audiophilic? :]
Anyways, I managed to skim through two models of the brand of headphones. Loved the AKG K81 DJ headphones! So I bought it at S$143 bucks. Good deal, considering (after checking it out on the internet) it was sold at 70 USD.
Managed to go to Gramophone at Capitol Centre and Jom managed to get her Hard-fi CD! Yay!
Then we went over to Swee Lee where we checked out some drum and guitar stuff. I was so tempted to buy a tuner (what a selection) and a pair of rutes! But no, I resisted. Take that, Shane. :]
Hsuan Te bought a guitar grip thingy and some picks, and I don’t know what Shane bought but yeah we had lots of fun there. I think we saw Ms Yang (Maths Lecturer) with her boyfriend at Bras Basah Shopping Centre. A tad unrecognisable but I was quite sure it was her save for the retro spectacles.
Oh well, the day is over. Back to Chinese. What the heck.
Muse – “Feeling Good”
Birds flying high
You know how I feel
Sun in the sky
You know how I feel
Reeds drifting on by
You know how I feel
Its a new dawn it’s a new day its a new life
For me
And I’m feeling good
Fish in the sea
You know how I feel
River running free
You know how I feel
Blossom in the trees
You know how I feel
It’s a new dawn its a new day it’s a new life for me
And I’m feeling good
Dragonflies all out in the sun
You know what I mean, don’t you know
Butterflies are all having fun
You know what I mean
Sleep in peace
When the day is done
And this old world is a new world and a bold world for me
Stars when you shine
You know how I feel
Smell of the pine
You know how I feel
Yeah freedom is mine
And you know how I feel
Its a new dawn its a new day its a new life for me
Butterflieeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeees
Ooooh, freeier than you..
Ooooh, feeling good..
Luciano Pavarotti – “The Legend of Opera”
Deepest sympathies to his family; relatives and loved ones. It was tragic to know that someone so well-known and revolutionary worldwide departed us.
