dreams

sorry you haven't been hearing from me, peeps.

but today i felt inspired to write. after a month. but this will be a quickie (i think)

i've been having really vivid dreams. they feel so real. it's been four nights in a row now, and they involve different people in each of them, but some of the same people in all four.

some claim that dreams are a way of dealing with/reflecting on your daily up's and down's, or whatever's been on your mind lately. in the case of the dreams i've been having, i'd say this claim is fairly true, though not entirely.

i've been dreaming a lot too. well, not just in my sleep, i mean. dreaming about what i want to do in my life. dreaming both big and small. it brings about mixed emotions really. excitement, fear, joy, sadness.

well anyway as you can see, this thing about "dreams" has been quite significant in my life lately. they're just kinda always there, some part of the day. sometimes more than usual. i used to be a big dreamer when i was in school, but then it kind of got lost, and now i guess it's back again.

the first song i wrote was called "dream." or "dreaming," can't remember

i still believe that you should never stop dreaming. somehow it defines who you are inside, something that's just bursting to come out, and if you put it off, one day it might be gone. so, my advice, don't be afraid to dream. really. cos you never know... it might become a reality.

haiyo

I sang at the top of my lungs as I was driving to college (hope no one I knew saw me this time), and I noticed that as I was nearing the carpark area, my voice was croaking. Haha I think I was on the verge of losing my voice. So guys, if you plan on singing your heart out, please do your vocal chords a favour and warm them up :-)

Which then made me wonder, how in the world do rock stars sing on stage for over an hour and a half straight? I guess that's why you call them professionals.

Gosh, I sure am random when I'm stressed out.

Did you know...

that the phrase, "I must be cruel only to be kind" came from Shakespeare's Hamlet?



Betcha didn't know that :)

Okay I seriously gotta start blogging about stuff other than Literature.

Sometimes all we really have is ourselves.

Passion or Reason

Which would you say you lean more towards?


I think it's pretty obvious where I am. You can guess if you like :)

It would probably be good to have both in moderation, but I think it's pretty impossible to have them equally. What do you think?



Just a thought as I was comparing Horatio and Hamlet. More evidence that Literature is indeed life. Haha.

me sleepy

i love jazz gigs

They're usually held in places where food and drinks are mighty pricey. But boy, when the music is good, and when you go with people who appreciate music, or jazz in particular, it's oodles of fun. I enjoy conversations about music cos it's where my interest lies and one of the few conversation topics I actually have things to say about! (sigh, pretty lame huh. haha) Music gives me pleasure, in so many ways. Gives me the tingles just thinking about it.


Weird? Yeah, I suppose.
