Train ride home

Just a tidbit of a conversation I heard. I thought it was sweet and it probably made my day.

Hey, I'm still on the train right now. There's some beef in the fridge, but it's fine if you don't want to cook. You're probably dead tired. Wait till I get home and I'll see if I can do something with it.

latin pop

I'm really getting into Latin pop music right now. Been youtube-ing non-stop! I feel so familiar with the genre - maybe its because there was a period of time when all I did listen to was Latin pop. Of course, this was back when I was in year 5 and 6. I constantly played the tape whenever I could - in the car, in my room etc. It got to the point where I made duplicates just in case something happened to the primary one. Thank goodness I was smart, keke. My primary cassette didn't work anymore, all the tape had gone out of its case.

I remember that most of the songs in the tape were sang by Marc Anthony. Funnily enough, there was a Backstreet Boys song as well - Show Me the Meaning of Being Lonely. I loved all the songs on that tape. Never skipped a song, though it was kind of hard to skip a song to begin with. I would usually end up in the middle of the next song or lose my attention and wound up at the end of the tape.

Anyway, here's one of the songs that I've been listening to on repeat.

David Bisbal - Buleria


ENGLISH TRANSLATIONhttp://lyricstranslate.com/en/buleria-buleria.html

[CHORUS]
Buleria, buleria, so deep inside my soul
It's the blood of the land I was born in
Buleria, buleria, I love you more every day
I live being in love with you since the moment I saw you

Come, like a madman through life
With the heart beating
Because it knows that you are there

Ah life! It throbs with joy
it inebriates my feelings
with your kisses more and more

Ah skin! The moon's curse
the beauty of a rose
and the warmth of the sea

Ah you are! sweet wine from the grapes
where I drink, with your lips,
from the fountain of love

[CHORUS]

I want, to live here by your side
chained to your body
charmed by passion

Ah nothing! Without your love I'm nothing
I'm a drifting ship
that is shipwrecking because of the pain

The perfume from your breath I want to breathe
and that magic there is in your gaze
(I want) to be the hero of your dreams and so much more
I want to be your calm and your storm

[CHORUS x2]

Come near very slowly, allow yourself to be felt
Start already this fire that is inside me

(Ay, ay, ay, Don't leave me without your love)
Without your kisses I'm nothing but a pitiful heart
(Ay, ay, ay, Don't leave me without your love)
By your side there is no sorrow, there is no pain
(Ay, ay, ay, Don't leave me without your love)
For your memory is always walking the same path I walk

[CHORUS x2]

Ah Virgin (Mary) in heaven, you know how much I love her
she is the moon, she is the moon, without her I die
on my knees I beg you. Tell her that I love her
I don't want to live alone anymore. Tell me how long

[CHORUS x2]

too messed up

F**K YOU
FAMILY
POLITICS

hi scammer :D

So, I finally got a scammer call. A very odd experience, especially when I felt bad that I couldn't understand what the guy was saying. I had to repeatedly ask him to repeat and he eventually had to spell it out (with annoyance of course) - s for sierra, c for charlie, a for alpha, m for mike, m for mike, e for echo and r for romeo.

Turns out that the scammer I had was reported on A Current Affair and after searching around the site, I found the video - http://aca.ninemsn.com.au/investigations/8250275/call-centre-scammers

But anyway, I wanted to post about the NATO Phonetic Alphabet. I used to remember all of them when I was a kid, but my memory has gone, awww :(

new layout;

I've finally updated my blog with a new layout, YAY! It took quite a while to edit everything to my liking (such as font colour, font size, font family etc) but it's all worth it in the end.

With this new layout, I've decided to update my blog(s) more regularly. The only problem is, I've got so many that I don't know what to do with them. Originally, I had a blog for sharing purposes and another for personal reflections/thoughts. But in due time, I realised I wanted to blog more about what I'm doing, what quotes have struck a cord with me, attempt some challenges, music that are constantly on repeat etc. Because of that, I've created two new blogs + tumblr and now I don't know what to do with my old ones. Maybe I should ditch them and start anew? Maybe, maybe not.

Once I figure out everything I'll be posting like mad...maybe.

P.S: Expect a lot more gifs from dramas, music videos, movies and the likes. I've gotten better at making them and I'm not ashamed to use this power :D
