quote time!

"Music is a total constant. That’s why we have such a strong visceral connection to it, you know? 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 your or the world, that one song says the same, just like that moment." ~Sarah Dessen

why i ♥ my Android LG p500(yes, it is yet, another list):
  • Upgradable OS = added features
  • The Android Market. need i say more?
  • Themes! Which is one of the factors i look into when buying a phone
  • Widgets. Just like the ones on your computer desktop. how cool is that?!
  • The Advanced Task Killer App. die unused apps, die!
  • The Bloggeroid App which instantly connects me here to my site
  • The StumbleUpon App. if other people Tweet, i Stumble.
  • The Vignette Demo Camera App. a must-have for any Android phone and picture enthusiast
  • The Pokedroid App. A Pokedex in your very own phone. No, i'm not kidding.
  • ROM Emulator App. Pokedex + Emulator = Pokemon til the wee hours of the morning.


the picture above is an easy DIY vertical garland for your curtains that i did in about less than an hour (blame it on the surge of creativity and me missing designing my room). all you need is some string, scissors, cardboard paper with your color of choice and scotch tape. have a great Tuesday ahead people!

working for 8 days straight and counting. breaks consist of coffee, massive amounts of junk food and bread and cake, new songs on my playlist, and my mind going off to goodness-knows-where. will be updating this post with rad songs i've been currently listening to later. Gotta have my coffee to perk me up now!

so what goes well with coffee, you ask? Macaroons! Sugar-filled, buttery, coconut filled Macaroons! Goldilocks' Butter Macaroons still taste the same from how i remember them many years ago, which is a very good thing because these are crazy yummy.



And here's the song list, as promised:
  • A Fine Frenzy - Borrowed Time
  • Adrianne - 10,000 Stones
  • Christina Perri - Jar of Hearts
  • Ingrid Michaelson - The Way I Am
  • Matt Wertz - 519
  • Natalie Imbruglia - Shiver
  • Sara Bareilles - Gravity
  • Secondhand Serenade - Something More
  • Tyrone Wells - Sea Breeze
  • Howie Day -Weightless

I miss Xanga's Currently Listeing To/Reading headers, complete with the album art or the book cover. i wish Blogger would provide gadgets like those so i could flood this blog with books and music like a mad person.

since i'm at work (and it's a Sunday. a S-U-N-D-A-Y), i figured the fastest way to post something interesting is to post pictures which are taken from my phone.






DSLRs aren't the only cameras that can take neat pictures yo'!<3

the thing about circumstances is, people always have to make sense of it. they go for the long, straining process of dissecting sentences, of glances, of the silence, of the reason for the sudden change of tides because they fear the short, simple task of asking. because that simplicity in itself is what's terrifying--when layers and layers of conjectures, of thoughts and questions are abruptly stripped and rendered useless. it's like driving a hundred miles an hour without brakes or seatbelts on; there's no safety, nothing to stifle the inevitable impact of grasping the truth in all its aching glory. and like all accidents, like car crashes, not everyone makes it out in one piece.
