Too Busy, You're Writing Your Tragedy

8pm
Radio = Frou Frou - Let Go

I've been meaning to write since a couple of days ago but work has really gained a huge load the past week. And it's only now where I've found some time.

May 5th was grandpa's passing anniversary. 7 years seem like a long way but for that particular day. I could never forget that date. Anyway apart from that, I had work at 3pm that day. And that was the start...of head spins and double visions. Duty ended at 11pm. But no relief yet. Had another coming later at 4am. Right, off to bed..at work. I don't think I ever slept then. It felt as if the alarm rang as when the time I was setting it. 3am - red puffy eyes. The second duty finished at 1pm. That done, I headed home and was looking forward to a nice long sleep. 6.38pm - I received a call from the guys. Recall!! I just couldn't believe my ears. What the fuck!!! I should have had that thought if I hadn't say it out loud. The third duty..started at 8pm right till the wee hours of the next, that was earlier today at 3am. And all these for the General Elections. All the drama, all the saga...for my suffering. In all, work cost me 24 hours++. Excellent.

I had watched The Spanish Apartment and Garden State recently. I kinda got into them. That bittersweet feeling. I realised movies that gets my attention are those that play a real story. Telling issues that we face daily. Nothing of those fictional fantasy stories really matter. They don't last in mind. Anyway, I was pleasantly surprised when I heard Radiohead's No Surprises in Spanish Apartment and Coldplay's Don't Panic featuring in Garden State. The latter's movie soundtrack is excellent. I made some nice song discoveries. Frou Frou's Let Go is a gem. On first hearing, I'd have put my money on KT Tunstall being the singer cos they sound so similar.

Interestingly after watching Garden State, I don't ever remember watching another movie with an unspelt ending where I'm genuinely satisfied. That's a first for a movie. At the end, the guy asks the girl ''What do we do?" and he just smiles at her and then they stare at each other...

On a personal matter, things haven't been any different. I haven't got anything new. And Im searching..still. Whatever or whoever and wherever it is. Maybe some things are better left unsaid and unwritten. The best person to understand and explain are perhaps ourselves.. ?? ..

Oh yes lastly about the thing I was talking about recently and hadn't mentioned, last heard Peterpan will be coming this June to perform a gig at Hard Rock. [..thanks Farina.] And get this, Coldplay are scheduled to play here again on July 10th! Tickets details are not out yet. I'll be staying tune..

[P/S] By the way, Ms Sandy Erin you'll be fine. A friend in need's a friend indeed.
