Patronising Update

October 20, 2011

Ah yea, another patronising update.
I would LOVE to post something else but I don't really have the time for it.

But but but! I do have something to blog in my mind. So please wait for it alright?

Well I am now pushing everything that I enjoy aside to force myself to focus on my assignments and exam.
I have TONS of assignments to complete within 2 weeks. #die#

I applied the Premack's law onto myself ._________.
I have a few projects to work on. But of course, everything gotta wait til' the semester ends.
Oh well, that kinda motivated me a little.

Hmm, and I found out one of my biggest fears-- calling people I don't know! This might not make sense to you but it is super dreading for me! I sure hope that I can just rely on email but I will get over it. ~~Since I have no other choice but to call the centres one by one to get approval for survey.~~

Need to get back to work. Hope I'll survive all the phone calls.

God bless your day!

Sometimes I just want to leave everything behind...

and have a little getaway.

Alone. No one else.

Country Rocks!

October 6, 2011

I met a few friends recently, typical Malaysian Chinese youngsters.

We chit-chatted and I popped a question: "What music do you guys listen to?"

Friends: Well, the usual.

Me: What exactly is the usual?

Friends: Duh, Lady Gaga, Eminem, Lee Hom,***** (some names I don't even know :-O) ....

Me: Cool... do you guys like country music?

Friends: What is country music?

Me: You know, Rodney Atkins, Garth Brooks. Just to name a few.
(friends gave blurred expressions)

Me: Taylor Swift. Ring a bell?

Friends: I know Taylor Swift. But what does she has to do with country music? 'Country' sounds so old-fashioned.

Me: .....

In my mind was like...
COUNTRY MUSIC IS SOOOOOOOO UNDERRATED IN MALAYSIA.

How can they not know a single thing about country music?!?

I'm not saying that pop songs and pop singers aren't good (although I don't like some of them) and all country songs are the best, but won't they ever get sick of crappy songs nowadays?

*Lazy to explain what is country music lah, just ask Mr.Google if you are interested.* : )

Why do I like country so much?
- I can sleep to it
- wonderful background music arrangements
- free-spirited
- always have that lively and positive vibe
- ~~Just because I hate crappy songs full of subliminal message~~s Effortlessly sung
- I have a thing for effortless and sort of "frank" qualities in country singers

Here are some of my all time/recent (potentially all time) country favourites!

Red River Blue (by Blake Shelton and Miranda Lambert)
My favourite lullaby!
