man the song i've just put up (which apparently is
not playing as of a minute ago) is like an open book to my (past) love life. which suck. arh. haha. it's so remarkable how a music could bring you back your memories... just like what
Owen Armstrong in Sarah Dessen's
Just Listen said in the book:
"... music is a total constant. that's why we have such a strong visceral connection to it... because a song can take you back instantly to a moment, or a place, or even a person. no matter what else has changed in you or the world, that one song stays the same, just like that moment. which is pretty amazing..."and i couldn't agree more. you see, i think that my life has a soundtrack, just like a movie does. it plays sad tunes when the characters are down and happy ones when the characters are happy.
and so our life has it's own soundtrack too, i guess.
try to think of a song that you remember so much. and see how it connects to a point in your life. there must be one.
aside from being a soundtrack, songs are like a remedy too for me. some songs lift up my spirit if i'm down. such as
Let Go by Frou Frou. just hearing imogen sang the line "
...cause there's beauty in the breakdown..." lifts me up again. somehow. haha.
right, this is a (supossedly) random post. haha. but then again, just something i'd like to share with you. but really, music is a remedy. it's a soundtrack. it's believe it or not, a memory.
some songs bring me back to memories. be it bitter or sweet. be it the ones i long for or not. but it just do. whenever you listen to a certain song, somehow it's as if you're pulled back to that memory.
as if it's a time warp that pulls you straight to that memory.
call me crazy, but that's how i feel sometimes.
if that song brought me back to some bitter memory, i might actually cry.
yeah. then again, call me crazy.
oh well. i'm off now. i feel like doing something else that doesn't involve me staring at a monitor. haha.
aaaand since it's the holidays (yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaayyyy!!) i can sleep whenever i want to! yeah haha.
hav a nice one peeps!
;p
