This is what i think of the time spent with you. This was also the song that was playing when i first saw you.
Lay where you're laying, don't make a sound
I know they're watching, they're watching
All the commotion, the kiddie like play
Has people talking, talking
You, your sex is on fire
The dark of the alley, the breaking of day
The head while I'm driving, I'm driving
Soft lips are open, knuckles are pale
Feels like you're dying, you're dying
You, your sex is on fire
Consumed with what's to transpire
Hot as a fever, rattling bones
I could just taste it, taste it
If it's not forever, if it's just tonight
Oh, it's still the greatest, the greatest, the greatest
You, your sex is on fire
And you, your sex is on fire
Consumed with what's to transpire
And you, your sex is on fire
Consumed with what's to transpire
You truly are something..
stins.

Evolution?
hey guys, im not sure if this blog is the only one that doesnt get read very often, but i guess its just another method of me getting to vent to the outside world. right then, onto the task at hand, MUSIC.
as a kid, i grew up to britney spears, n-sync, backstreet boys and s club 7. so u can imagine, the music i grew up with was pretty much all pop. i didnt really mingle with rock, or punk, let alone rap. as i entered my teens, i found punk. avril lavigne, good charlotte and simple plan were the well that i drank and filled my thirst from. (yes, guys, i liked avril, in fact, i was convinced that she was the ONE...hahaha>) so first analysis is that my music is very pop-punk oriented. quite unfortunately.
but once i moved, my ears discovered alternative. never really knew what that meant, but bands like paramore, dashboard confessional, coldplay. their music was a mix, their lyrics made sense and it belonged somehow. granted, their music was light, with an upbeat sound, esp with dashboard and paramore. coldplay was just odd but hautingly nice. and sean, you maybe laughing at me cuz of paramore, but i like them. in fact, i can proudly say that i like their williams more than the other williams i know off...(sorry beff)..hahaha.
quite a few months back, i began listening to new bands, music that was not so much mainstream, music that wasnt being well knowned. and somehow their music, while not being popular, was well liked by some that had seen them live, or heard of them thru youtube (damn, i love youtube..). and i can clearly say that of the bands that have got a great sound to them, flyleaf tops the list.
flyleaf are an alternative rock band, and their music is very heavy. (i have warned you). their lead singer, lacey mosley, can sing, play the guitar, headbang, and even scream. their lyrics often talk abt those that have been left out, forgotten, and misled. mosley was a drug addict at the age of 10, she almost committed suicide, but she found god. long story short, she is a born again christian who writes abt being saved thru her oft misunderstood music.
my conclusion is this. i went from school-girl uni clad britney, to sk8er boi loving avril, to chris martin of coldplay. what maybe this very young journey of music has thought me is that, its ever changing, always evolving.

2 years..
hey guys, i was sitting there by the table the other day, when it occured to me that id been here for 2 years now. but it honestly feels as tho it were yesterday that i just arrived from kuching, starry-eyed and lost. how the cold air around me gripped my breath, suffocating me. but the odd thing is that, i find my memories confused, many a time, i wonder when it was a certain event happened, whether it happened here or in kuching. so what does this say? am i forgetting abt my past, where i came from? maybe, maybe not.
im left contemplating how things have changed in the 2 years. how in the blink of an eye, ive gone from the crazy, immature kid from kuching, to the slightly sensible, more matured teen in perth. in a months time, ill be submitting a form, which will dictate the next 4 years of my life. im entering uni next year, and i cant believe it. but ive grown in the 2 years, an unbelieavable change has occured. ive got a job, im looking for a car, ive got a licence, and the other day whilst out with my brothers mate, something odd happened. he started pestering me to buy him a toy, and memories came fleeting to me, this was the exact thing that i did to anyone that had the capacity to buy me toys when i was a kid. so does this make me an oldie?
my career doesnt start till after my uni, but i like to think that its starting when i fill in that form. and in the blink of an eye, my future will flash before me. from living with my parents, to going to uni a couple times a week, to finishing my course, to graduating, to working in a proper law firm, to moving out, to finding the 'one', to getting married, to getting that massive payrise, to getting kids, to growing old. now im not sure abt u lot, but that scares me. sometimes i wish as though i have my future laid out for me, that i need not make a single choice. but i guess its the choices that make us who we are.
i watch a lot of 'how i met your mother' and its a tv show abt a father telling his kids abt how he met their mother, ie his wife. the story takes several turns, some involving him gettin fired, breaking up from relationships that clearly seemed to last, and how the search for her was a massive pain to him. many a time i wonder if this is how my future will be. how i have everything planned out, only for it to have it blow up in my face. how ill end up being sad, alone dishelleved, lying in the fetal position crying on the floor. i guess it scares me. like how it scared ted. and i dont like showing how im scared.
but in the final episode of season 4, marshall, one of teds best friends, talks abt this jump from their apartment to the other one across the small road. its not a big leap, but its dangerous. hes tried to jump it but of course he doesnt. but marshalls wife talks abt ted taking a leap, and just making a big decision. i guess i just have to take that leap, i just have to jump, and hope i land in that safe hot tub across the road. watch it, its great.
anyway, i hope this has had some effect on you. because writting it has. thanks.
