Day 12: Last Song

Day 12 is a song I last heard.

I am just a recent fan of Florence + The Machine since Gerald from the office told me to watch their SNL performance.  I immediately downloaded their Ceremonials album and fell in love with it.  The entire day, I’ve been playing it over and over, and this is the last song I heard before I started to write this post.

This is officially part of my running/workout playlist.  I always feel energized and optimistic whenever I hear this song and I’m quite happy to be caught with this song being the last one I heard. :)

Day 10: Favorite Band

Day 10 is a song by my favorite band.

Now this is difficult.  I’ve always known that I will most probably sell blood or a part of my liver for a Coldplay concert.  And U2.  Or liver for U2, blood for Coldplay.  So it’s difficult.

Can I choose two?  Oh wow.  How do I do this?  How about….. yeah, let’s go with U2 on this one. :)

I first heard this song from FRIENDS, when Ross and Rachel were first starting out.  Remember the one with the list?  Since then, I’ve been hooked to this song — and this band — and it’s always so good!


You can’t deny the fact that people immediately fell in love with Bono more.

Day 9: Hopeful

Day 9 is a song that makes me feel hopeful.

I am thinking hopeful in general okay?  I first heard this song when my good friend Neil made me listen to it during one of our long days in management training.  I didn’t expect to like it at first (it’s not really the genre I’ve warmed up to), but the lyrics are just so full of hope.  Really.  The message is simple and clear, and it’s hard to not root for this song.

He sort of reminds me of Bob Marley.  And Bob Marley reminds me of my college friends who just love love love love love love love the beach.

Day 8: First Love

Day 8 is a song that reminds me of my first love.

This challenge is more personal than it looks!  Hahahaha.  I mean, first my most recent ex and now, my first love!?  Gehd.  Hahahaha.

Anyway, so yeah my first love was in high school.  Some might think it’s a cliche but hey!  It was really good while it lasted.  I honestly don’t think my growing up years would’ve been complete without it.

I think this is one of our songs.  Of course, we were in high school, hence we have tons of theme songs.  :)


I don’t know about you but I’ve always had a crush on Caroline Corr, the drummer.

Day 7: The Past Summer

Day 7 is a song that makes me recall my last summer.

Since this year’s summer hasn’t quite settled in yet, I will find a song that will make me recall last summer.  But last summer I didn’t do anything!  Hahahaha.  I basically geared up for a July visit to Coron, Palawan, which was, to say the least, the most amazing time our family has ever had.

So I guess that’s what I’m giving a song to. :)  Perhaps we can consider this trip as late summer?


Blue October is the bomb!


I suddenly miss Palawan.
