Hello! Daylight Saving Time tonight and we have an hour of extra sleep. Yay! Yes! Yes! hahaha.
Ehh… Wala ako masabi.
Ooh, I want to share Marit Larsen’s new single If A Song Could Get Me You from the album The Chase. I’m excited because I thoroughly enjoyed her first one, Under The Surface. Ms. Larsen used to be one half of Norwegian pop duo M2M and she started her solo career in 2005. I’m glad that she did because I love her pop/folk music, very refreshing and original. I also find it impressive that she plays an assortment of instruments (guitar, piano, etc) and she writes her own songs. There’s also a sense of honesty from her music, almost like you can see her personality through them. ML is also as cute as a button hehehe. Here she is singing unplugged at a public market.
So I wish you all good night and enjoy the rest of the weekend. I’m off to watch A Very Special Love hihihi. Nandun kasi si John Lloyd, I liked him very much in that movie with Bea…uhhh title…One More Chance, I think. Can I just say Filipino movies are so bad with titles. They’re always named after songs, which make them indistinct and corny (sorry but true hehehe).
There was a problem with our phone line last week and because we have DSL, we had no internet for 3 days and 2 nights. It wasn’t as bad because I was busy and every time I remember that I can’t check my email, update my blog, spy on other people’s blogs, chat, or look up…stuff, I just play a game of Pinball. Or Spider Solitaire. Who knew Pinball is this addictive? Current high score 3,690,000.
Last Thursday we got the result of our second exam. I passed, but barely, and it’s silly but I became depressed for the rest of the day. I talked to a couple of people who would understand but I mostly kept quiet because I didn’t want to offend anybody who had it worse than me. So I sat out the 4-hour lecture, feeling more miserable after every hour, and after, I stayed with the others for a classmate’s baby shower. It was another hour or two of forcing myself to smile and talk at the right moments. I was drained so I bailed on my study partner and went home early and slept for most of the afternoon. So what’s the point of the story? Wala lang hehehe. Wala na akong tagapakinig ng mga detalye ng buhay ko kaya sub muna kayo hehehe.
The next day back to normal, almost, so I made my favorite Knorr Crab and Corn soup to console myself and watched Kiki’s Delivery Service. It’s a Studio Ghibli anime film, the same studio that produced Howl’s Moving Castle, which I’ve seen 5 times already and I’m still not tired of it. KDS is the first DVD in this new collection. A little about the story - it’s a sweet and simple, coming-of-age story of the young Kiki who left her home to find a life/career in a new city. Now for both films, I’m very impressed with the animation; it’s a major reason why I enjoy these films. And the soundtrack…how to describe…nostalgic.

Before the end of the day, I finished two papers, yay. Thursday sucked but Friday was very good, productive and relaxed.
Hello. I just made a few, quick changes on my second sidebar. I joined the Amazon Associate Program so anytime someone purchases something from Amazon through my site, I get a little something something hehehe. So if you’re feeling generous…
I also added my wishlist. Wala lang.
I don’t really expect to earn a lot here. I’m just a big fan of Amazon.
