Forever In Blue Jeans ♥

-- I've been hooked on a song new song since last weekend :) It's an old song, again. Sigh. 


Forever In Blue Jeans - Jason Castro (Neil Diamond cover) 
Money talks
But it don't sing and dance
And it don't walk
As long as I can have you here with me
I'd much rather be
Forever in blue jeans

And honey's sweet
But it ain't nothin' next to baby's treat
And if you pardon me
I'd like to say
We do okay
Forever in blue jeans

Maybe tonight
Maybe tonight,
By the fire all alone, you and I
Nothing around
But the sound of my heart
And your sighs

And money talks
But it can't sing and dance
And it can't walk
As long as I can have you here with me
I'd much rather be
Forever in blue jeans, babe

And honey's sweet
But it ain't nothin' next to baby's treat
And if you pardon me
I'd like to say
That we do okay
Forever in blue jeans

Maybe tonight
Maybe tonight,
By the fire all alone, you and I
Nothing around
But the sound of my heart
And your sighs

And money talks
But it don't sing and dance
And it don't walk
As long as I can have you here with me
I'd much rather be
Forever in blue jeans

And if you pardon me
I'd like to say
We do okay
Forever in blue jeans, babe

As long as I can have you here with me
I'd much rather be
Forever in blue jeans...

Walking down Liberty Lane

So, I caught myself off guard again while.. studying. It's the second day of the second quarter examinations. The relief I felt after having taken six tests already is beyond amazing, no words to fit the context. I've been really worried about my grades and the exams for so long already. Tension never feels good. I feel so alive after knowing that I have gotten over and done with with the most complicated tests known to mankind also known as ME. :) Am I exaggerating too much? (YES) Okay, so I came up with the title after listening to Miley Cyrus' epic new song called Liberty Walk. It's really different from her usual sound. Most songs in her album actually have a new kind of vibe. It's really more of teen pop with a dash of techno and it sounds like dance music. As for myself, I really cannot curb my urge to break free from this place I'm living in right now. I cannot wait for exams to be over because I think I've been so busy since August and things just went so fast. I've been redundant now, haven't I? I've been so redundant about things passing so quickly but who cares because it's true. So now, starting tomorrow at exactly 9:30 am, I can happily break free and walk down liberty lane with no more worries and a whole lot of time for other things aside from school and studies. :D But all those are temporary, I know. It's life. ;)

12:00

It's 12:00 in my watch. It probably ain't the same with the one here in blogger but who cares and who's counting? My point is, cramming.. It's been a habit, I admit. Well, not just for me of course. You've done it too. I know. :D So, tomorrow's booked with four mastery tests, three of which are major subjects. I was studying biology and decided to take a break since the stuff I read no longer sunk into my senses. I'm on my break right now, just to let you know. I decided to blog because I figured I haven't reached the minimum blog limit for this quarter yet. A lot of stuff and activities have taken over. Events came and went so fast as if they were a blur swiftly being carried away into thin air. I know, I know. This week's gonna be hectic. Speak of the quarter exams, projects on due, other things posed and a lot more. My folks say it's a test of your grip unto reality. School gives you a taste of what the real life after high school is gonna be like once in a while and it's probably your choice whether you take it or leave it, get up for the challenge or see yourself fail. It sounds easy and quite worth it but when you come to think of it and actually be in the said situation it gets harder, challenging and a lot more worse. All we can do now is wish each other the best of luck and it's 12:00 am for school's sakes - it's a new day. :)

Ulterior Motives

Recently, I've found some songs that were once, should've been and on their way to becoming hits. I know it's never easy to find yourself and impress the entire population when you're in the music industry. I think it's all about being current, fresh and new, up-to-date. Well, here are some songs by multi-talented people whom I think are reinventing music.


1. We'll Be Alright - Travie McCoy
2. Who Owns My Heart - Miley Cyrus
3. Permanent December - Miley Cyrus
4. Rhythm of Love - Plain White T's
5. Count On Me - Bruno Mars
6. It's A New Day - Will.I.Am.
7. September - Daughtry
8. Everybody Knows - John Legend
9. Double Vision - 3OH!3
10. Cooler Than Me - Mike Posner

Leap Of Faith


Whataya think? :)) I find this one interesting.
It's called The Leap of Faith. It's around 27.5m tall and 61m long, from the top of the Ziggurat the Leap of Faith catapults riders into a transparent tunnel and through a shark-filled lagoon.

SPELL CHANGE.

ME TOO. 

State the obvious, everyone keeps on waiting on the world to change not only John Mayer. So, I came across this beyond epic, awesome song months ago but it never really struck me as much as it did right now. It's a really great song. I think it's really current and worth the listen. It does have some really strong statements in its lyrics like: 

Now if we had the power
To bring our neighbors home from war
They would have never missed a Christmas
No more ribbons on their door
And when you trust your television
What you get is what you got
Cause when they own the information, oh
They can bend it all they want 

It's not that we don't care,
We just know that the fight ain't fair
So we keep on waiting
Waiting on the world to change 


T.I.M.E. repeats itself. ;)

As I was brainstorming for a good blog post, I put my iTunes on random as it selected songs of any genre, by any artist and of any kind. I heard some pretty good ones, ones that brought back memories, some which until now I still do not have a clue why they're there and also ones that came from way back. Yes, I'm talking 80's, 90's and even before that. My point is, trends are never trends and trends fade but then someone, somewhere manages to bring them back. That's how the human brain works. Some people go with the trends and follow them while some retain what they like and love until.. forever and sometimes even make themselves look very much in style with the lamest stuff they can find. I find it really fascinating though, no sarcasm intended. If some believe in reincarnation, well maybe it's really how things work. Someone in this earth finds something cool, he sports it out, other people like it too, they buy it, wear it, use it and the like and even maybe improve it or turn it into something better. Let's just say, I think things are improvements of other things. Just like how a manual thing can turn electric all of a sudden but there still are people who prefer the manually operated one while others find convenience in electric powered stuff. But then, a prominent and well-known person says he takes pride in using the manual one because of all its advantages and easy-to-understand features. And so, everyone does it too. I hope you get the logic here or my carefully written slash typed blog post would be a waste. Time repeats itself. Maybe someday, somehow, somewhere, someone might inspire or make you remember an experience you've had years ago that now remains as nothing but a blur, a memory perhaps. Grab that opportunity, let it change you. Time repeats itself, and not only time but so does life. :)

The week that has been.

Let's just say I experienced a hard week. A lot of stuff on due and little 'ole me without any clue. Apparently, I was fortunate enough to have survived. Here's a little list of what made me go loco:

1. TALUMPATI. I honestly thought I was gonna fail. I sneaked an outing with friends the weekend before and it was supposed to be time for study and memorizing. Well, it was worth it though. :D I successfully presented my talumpati. I'm down right satisfied even though it was obviously far from perfect. :) 

2. MT SCHEDULES. Now, this was awful. I thought I was gonna be free for the weekend. Monday morning went totally fine until the beans were spilled --- next week's mastery test week and a lot of them. HELP! 

3. LONG HOURS. Everything went so fast except for time. I still cannot get over the fact that we are now sophomores and people are different. I'm still too comfortable with freshmen life. :)) I know. I know. Well, time came so fast and now another quarter is coming ahead. But then, the long hours -- classes always seem so long while the extra activities we get to do now and then seem to just pass so swiftly, right ahead of you before you can even realize when and where you are and how that very moment is and will be of great importance to you in the years to come.  ;)
