Sigh.

Posted by: lubnaaa | May 15, 2008 |

I never let a music recommendation go without my thanks. Credits to Zimini for Landon Pigg. It’s an unfortunate surname, but Falling In Love At A Coffee Shop is definitely not an unfortunate song.

It’s so sweet, perfect for a scene in a car where a woman in the passenger seat is leaning back, feet tucked under her, pretending to be asleep. She’s secretly watching her loved one as he drives, watching his eyes travel, watching his hair fly, watching his thoughts wander.

It’s completely irrelevant, given the fact the song’s talking about a coffee shop, but it’s the only scene I see in my mind when the song’s playing. It’s like a camera’s in my head capturing the shot, complete with the angles, the lighting, right down to the grainy 60’s vintage look.

Maybe I should have gone to film school instead.

Litefm on Sunday nights equals bliss. If you’re not suffering from the Damn-it’s-Sunday-evening-tomorrow-is-already-Monday dread, and you’re in the mood to unwind, switch to 105.7 (for Klang Valley people), turn up the volume, grab some good reading material and a scrumptious cup of cocoa, and just soak up songs from the past. It’s like putting on an old record on your gramophone, and it’s haunting to know that almost if not all the singers you’re listening to have long been gone. I read somewhere that creativity can stem from depression. Is that why music from the 1930’s Depression Era sound so rich, despite its morose tone? I must go to New Orleans one day, if only for the jazz.

Malaysia v China in the Thomas Cup semi-final coming up tomorrow.

Must. Keep. From. Screaming myself hoarse.

Although really, it’s my anxiety nerves that’s more of a problem.
I miss the 15×3 system.

Enough said here.

sunday nights when my mum sends me back to college is one of the best moments sitting in the car..we’ll sing to almost every song!! we so look forward to it every sunday. makes the going back to college a little more memorable and less torturing.

was just about to drop u a msg on thomas cup..haha..here we go again!! i just hope the excitement and happiness lasts this time around.

I know! Sunday night driving makes me wish it was Sunday night every night. :)
Daad..we were so close. It all boiled down to Hafiz. WHY?! Remember in ‘02, when it came down to Roslin for the WIN? Hafiz was the hero then, I think it was the 7×5 system masa tu. And TBH-KKK did not deliver! Is this the curse of winning the All-England? Wow, it hurts.

You know it’s team captain Choong Hann’s final outing, right? He’s retiring. I found his Friendster profile. Hehehe.
*slaps self*

S.Korea is another story too. What do you call their ploy, strategy or non-sportsmanship? They deliberately lose to M’sia to meet Indonesia in the semis, and now look, they’re in the finals. I think this year could have been our year if we toppled China. S. Korea would’ve been an easier obstacle to the Cup.

I am aware I am ranting.
Daad, we’ve got to go watch the Thomas Cup live together one day. I’ll bring the flag, you bring the Yonex clapping thing. :)

I hate to say it. but I think there’s no better explanation or a more fulfilling one for fans like us other than this..WE ARE CURSED!!!
yeap..I’m gonna miss CH!! he should definitely rethink!! I don’t think anyone is set for the job yet. he talks about him n hafiz being past their prime..lin dan should be pre-historic then.hehe..ok ok so lin dan we beat.wats to become of us? i mean ‘poona’ used to be ours!! ours!!
definitely lah!! we should catch it when it’s our turn to host!! I’ll gladly bring the clapping thing!!
p/s: did u check out China’s jersey? they changed the sleeves..so much more like a cycling jersey. hehe.
