The challenge was to use ONLY pictures.
But I can't resist not adding words.
So what do you get ?
Images with quotes in them...
I'm definitely twisting this challenge.
Today's challenge is to share 5 songs that speak to me
or brings back memories.
This should be interesting.
And when I said 'interesting',
I mean
people who already know me should know what song I'd choose.
Number One :
Enchanted - Taylor Swift
Heard this song a hundred of times. Its in my iPod, my old car, my laptop. EVERYWHERE.
I even have the Owl City version.
But when I actually stopped and listened to the lyrics.
I think it makes a lot of sense.
I mean we all feel the same towards the people who like/love.
You like him/her but you're just too shy to confess.
And many more lovey-dovey stuff.
And with the perfect voice to suit the lyrics.
Number Two :
Homeward Bound/Home - Glee Cast
Nothing kicks you more in the guts than listening to this song
on your phone in the school library on the first day of school
because you haven't talked to anyone and you have no friends.
All you could do is sit down in a silent corner,
do your "homework" and cry silently
while thinking of home because of this song.
The sentimental variant of Home was definitely tear-jerking
Number Three :
Sunshine and City Lights - Greyson Chance
I don't really listen to this song anymore.
But it still brings back fond (or terrible) memories when I hear it play,
depends on how you look at it.
I first heard it play on the radio on Hitz.fm
Don't know the name of the song nor the artist.
And then I found out a few days later.
It was a mediocre song to me.
But it was during one of my famous full-day visits to the State Library
that I suddenly had "cravings" for this song.
It felt as if I needed the song to actually get myself studying.
Ended up walking around the library,
asking every KKHS student I know if they had the song in their phone.
To no avail, of course.
I don't usually do this.
Well, I don't anyone does.
Getting music-cravings and asking random people for it.
I look back,
I laugh.
Number Four :
From the Inside Out - Hillsong
OMG GASP.
A Christian song.
Yea, its true.
These songs bring back precious memories too.
I heard this song in my first "religion" modules in PLKN.
Or was it the second ?
It doesn't really matter.
They were both on the first week of camp.
I was pretty pessimistic about it.
Making friends and socialising, I mean.
So yeah I was pretty down/ emo.
But I wasn't that obvious, obviously.
So, before our module class ended for the night.
The priest/pastor/whatever-you-call-him
suggested we sing ONE last sing before we leave.
And it was like "Taylor Swift magic".
I know how to sing it.
Wow I surprised myself.
And singing really helped liberate all my inner stress at that time.
Where else was I suppose to sing like Beyonce ?
In the showers ?
(They'd knock down your shower door for that)
Eyes got teary.
Don't know why.
I don't know whether I'm making sense.
But it doesn't matter.
I feel it.
Number Five :
Gangnam Style - PSY
A crowd pleaser !
Me ? Not so much.
But I do admit its great workout music.
That is,
IF you know the correct dance moves.
Form 6 has unquestionably pushed students beyond their boundaries.
Although my stay was short,
this song symbolises the broadening of MY horizons.
Its one of those YOLO moments in my life.
I look back and I go
"Ohhh...WHY did I ever do that stupid dance in front of everyone."
but then I'd go
"It WAS a once in a lifetime opportunity. So I guess its alright."
Since its already over,
I can safely say that I have NO regrets
in doing anything regarding this song.
Prom didn't go so well,
but the process was priceless.
Once again,
I'd like to make a special shout-out to all the people
who pitched in to help make this dance a success.
I LUV U GUYS !
Listening to ALL OF THE ABOVE
Need to get back into shape. BADLY.
