Day 4: Calms Me Down

Day 4 is a song that calms me down.

Huh.  This would take a while because I haven’t really thought of what song actually calms me down.  I guess it would be best to showcase the song I immediately listen to when I get angry right?  Yeah, that one is a no brainer.

This song is so haunting.  Admit it.  Her voice just gets under your skin and stays there.

I teared up a bit just listening to it again.  Gah, I love this song.

Day 3: The Parents

Day 3 is a song that reminds me of one/both of my parents.

I remember asking my Nanay when I was younger if she and Tatay have a song.  You know, like a theme song.  I know it sounds so cheesy, but come on, admit it.  Even if you’re just in the first phases of boyfriend/girlfriendship, you kind of attach and relate that one song to your love.  Hahaha.

Yeah, well, after asking that question, they broke out and sang this song together.

I guess it’s some kind of a private thing between them because I so did not get it.  Hahahaha.

J. K. Rowling’s new book!

I woke up today to some glorious news:  J. K. Rowling finally announced the title and release date of her new book!

The Casual Vacancy is Rowling’s first adult book.  It’s also her first work outside of the Harry Potter universe.  According to Times Live, the book will be “blackly comic, thought-provoking and constantly surprising.”

My pants are on fire!  Boogie dance!

Here are some more general details about the book:

Rich at war with poor, teenagers at war with their parents, wives at war with their husbands, teachers at war with their pupils … Pagford is not what it at first seems.  And the empty seat left by Barry on the parish council soon becomes the catalyst for the biggest war the town has yet seen.  Who will triumph in an election fraught with passion, duplicity and unexpected revelations?

I am excited very much with this news.  I am such a book freak!  Or rather Harry Potter freak.  Whatevs.  I know you’re excited too.

The book is set to be released worldwide on September 27.  I wonder if the Philippines gets to have an earlier date, just like the movies…

Day 2: The Most Recent Ex

Here’s a song that reminds me of my most recent ex-boyfriend.

(I don’t know how most recent actually goes since I’ve been with Dylan for 6 years now. Hahaha. But for the sake of technicalities, let’s do this.)

He used to sing this a lot in the car while driving. He’s almost always out of tune, but he sings it so proudly nonetheless. I think it reminded him of his ex too. Hahahaha.

Coolest Cover Ever!

I know I said that Linkin Park’s Rolling In The Deep cover is the coolest thing ever.  But then music is constantly evolving, so are the people constantly bathing themselves with it.  I love Gotye’s Somebody That I Used To Know, and I was completely blown away by this cover.

(I actually thought that Pentatonix was amazing, but then, I stand corrected.  87 million views!  Come on!)

 

I am completely left in awe.  That girl has to be the hottest ever.  Wow.  WOW.

Closing jaw now.
