you can take he girl out of the jungle...

i wish to get out of this city,
and travel the offbeaten track

search for the sound nobody listens to.
and sing it.



escape this concrete jungle
and run back to them
they who hear those sounds



they who listen.


they who smell the flowers
and leave it on the field.


they who ignore the height of the ledge


and take the leap.

selamat hari wilayah


and happy thaipusam

the wizard of oohs and aahhs and falalas

the monday blues

i dont gots it.

last monday i found out that YKLS (the young kl singers) which i am now apart of, will be going for the world singing olympics (china hosting this year) in july. yes im going.

today we had a jazz basics workshop with az samad. learned some basic south indian rhythmic solfege, had a session on swing and brazilian rhythms. sang some 7th chords in solfege.
(yes i did all this after work)

next monday (we'll see)

and the following monday is a HOLIDAY!

monday blues.
SAY WHAT????

so cure your monday blues,
SING

no not, not never enough

not tonight . not again.

zero percent interest, not now not never

you're putting too much food on my plate come on

even if the sky is falling down.

today, for the first time in a long time, i turned on the radio in my car.
(normally i listen to all my mraz cds, they currently fill slots 1-6 in my player)
guess what song was on?
'you and i both'

you know it.
i immediately reverted back to my CD player because i was so happy the radio played a mraz song from like 8 years ago!.

just finished watching the opening show for american idol season number 9 and i already have a favourite.
more favourites will come, of course

its been a good day.

after, here

in this mess of smoke, i breathe
in the tangle of thought, i see
not people or animals, but me

happy new year everyone?

elementary

at the price you paid, i promise you won't believe anything they say
belief will only disappoint you
in case you never noticed the path you never chose has chosen you
afraid to face and break it.
the secret.
