New Day



Beautiful day
Watching you as you awake
Morning stars in your eyes
Your hand in mine

The sky is lit up
Day will be richer than night
So don't think of yesterday
It's here and now

It's a...
It's a...
It's a new day
It's a...
It's a...
It's a new day

The beauty of you
Gives me my fortitude
Stronger than any dark cloud
Screaming out loud
(Hey, hey)

The sky is lit up
Day will be richer than night
So don't think of yesterday
It's here and now
(Hey, hey)



Today marks the last day in school. It feels awfully strange yet meaningless at the same time.

Great song, current obsession!

i really should be studying but i just had to say it.

it's the time of the year again where exams are round the corner, but i just had to post this up.

girl genius, guitar playing, awesome cover girl - Tiffany Eugenio. I particularly like this song of hers:



she's got an amazing voice, and i think her cover of Madonna's 4 Minutes was just pure genius.

Check her mypsace out here

so what's been up lately? I've attended Jason Mraz and Coldplay recently. Jason Mraz was thoroughly entertaining and that man can just make me weak in the knees anytime. Coldplay was nothing less than epic. Possibly the best concert I've ever been to thus far. It's like I could close my eyes and still had shivers running down my spine. It was beautiful, beautifully amazing.

I've also added a new gadget at the end of this page that includes some of my favourite tracks. The playlist is going to keep expanding, so just you watch. I've gotten to know so many cool new bands over the past month or so, but I have been so caught up with school and work, it's been a crazy time.

Exams are round the corner, in fact, ending in 3 days. 4 years of school. In 3 days, it's all over. Finally, a chance to step out into the real world. It's all too exciting, yet scary at the same time. I'm afraid I will end up with a job that pays nothing, a life that is meaningless and leading a hollow existence. But all that said, there is also the excitement of growing up, of finally leaving dependence on my parents behind, of becoming a better person everyday, of maturing up, of finally being able to do all the things i ever wanted in this life, help the needy, volunteer at animal shelters, live on my own in my small apartment. it may be nothing now, but i feel like i'm going to start on a clean slate, and i finally get to be the writer of my own story.

I'll be off to India for my graduation trip. A time of peace, quiet and yoga on the mountains, of trekking and river rafting, it's all just too exciting.

And there is always, of course, a whole lifetime of spending time with my favourite musician, the boy. guitar strings, late nights and awful singing in PJs. It just seems too right to be wrong.

ps: check out unwed sailor, i am david sparkle (SG based post rock band), the cinematic orchestra. all can be found on my playlist, enjoy.
