Anyone who visits my Facebook probably realised by now how much thought goes through my mind and Facebook Timeline isn't great for cataloguing it.
I still want to keep it on the WWW with ability for people to read, think and comment about my thoughts. Hope it'll be updated and tagged regularly so I can keep track of everything. Haha.
Well hope you enjoy this blog!

Poem: Release
Nothing could bind his mind,
Even if his body was confined,
His heart soared above the confines,
Of the surrounding lines.
His mind's eyes have been everywhere,
His deepest soul touched every hair,
Despite this solitary lair,
With which he had no care
Despite its limits to a square.
Working within restrictions,
He fought all contradictions,
To live through this situation,
Is the only contemplation.
The moment would soon arrive,
The moment to simply dive,
Into the truth of a genuine life,
Accepting every bit of peace and strife.
He would question the cause,
Of his staying bound by laws,
Created not of physical bond,
But of his hanging on.
It wouldn't matter anymore,
For he'd have so much more,
To fulfil what he swore,
And satisfy his core.
Even if his body was confined,

Poem: The Could-Haves
The Could-Haves
We all have wondered,
Those endless possibilities
That if we had simply bothered
Or the right abilities
And captured those few hundred
Wasted opportunities.
Cry as we may,
To whine or to pray.
Nothing will change the past,
Or those that had turned to dust,
But was it a bad decision,
Or simply within reason?
The decisions we've made,
Will have been in vain,
If we choose to wade,
Through memories deep in our brain,
Of the detours we have previously laid,
Which will lead us to be insane.
The best choice,
Is to hush our voice,
Accept our actions,
And all reactions,
To put a foot forward,
Keep moving onward.
The Could-Haves are over,
There's no point to hover,
The most important question,
Is whether you are the bastion,
Of your own beliefs and dreams,
Not simply having whims.
To avoid regret,
Is to come clean,
And not forget,
Whether we lose or win,
We must still set our path straight,
Keep moving rather than to wait.

Psy, Gentleman and Humour
As yesterday's class involved (unsurprisingly)
the analysis of Gentleman, the new song by Psy, I decided to read a bit
more about other people's analysis of it.
I came by this hilarious one, but more importantly it's interesting to note how Psy is actually always getting interestingly misunderstood.
Before this I had read a couple more articles which did an amazing job missing out the whole point of Gentleman and the MV that comes with it. Haha
A Deep Literary Take on Gentleman

Have you experienced genuine appreciation and acceptance?
Once
you've experienced the real experience of being truly and genuinely
accepted, you will realise how we should all treat one another as human
beings.
It is the fullest and truest acceptance that one feels that can lead to positively motivated change and honest reflection of one's life.
But that is indeed the toughest challenge

Vivid day
"Rundown of my day:
Woke up at 830 after a long night and missed my bus.
Bought 1130 bus and missed it because I couldn't find my passport.
Searched till 1300 and found it in my other travel bag in the house I haven't returned to in 4 weeks. Rushed down to catch 1330 coach.
Coach ride was good. Reached before 7 had Wi Fi and life was good. Was raining cats and dogs but didn't notice until I stepped out to grab a cab an hour early.
Cab coupon lady told me I have to wait another hour to grab a cab so I started my journey by foot in the rain to nbt.
Got massively lost and detoured many times so I spent 1 hour in the rain with my bass and bag wandering. The walk could have taken 20 minutes.
Reached the gig dried off and worked out parts... Forgot to bring tablet charger, probably in the midst of searching for my passport.
Then came the gig. Went superbly well, of course could've done better with the rehearsal but hey I can't really complain, was my fault.
Had an awesome time after the gig too!
Wrapped up my screwed up day with roti double cheese onion and teh o halia kosong.
Who says a musician's life is boring"
