Queen - Love of my Life

I simply feel that it's a very sentimental and meaningful song and Queen sang it so well, so full of emotions. It is so touching. The first time i heard this song was when i watch Boys over flowers, the taiwanese version when Doumouji aka Dao Ming Si and 'San chai' broke up on a rainy night. I can still remember how the scene looked like. oh well. simply, touching, again.

To me, music is a very strong energy. Music can heal and travel to our hearts and it's such a beautiful natural thing. i'm so glad and grateful that i was once a choir member. Having a chance to sing, to be part of a splendid choir group. Unitl now, the fond memories of singing and performing still remains and i can still remember some of songs we sang. Like, No Man Is An Island, Love Changes Everything. (Janet or steph, if you're reading this, do you still remember?) I can still humme to the tunes of these songs.

"Yes, love, love changes everything.How you live and how you die."

P.s: I'm grateful for my choir instructor, Francis whom was a great teacher, but to bad i wasn't a good choir member but one who played traunt, forgive me sir. But hey, guess what, a few months ago he was at the printing shop and we met again and we keep in touch. ;]

New Age music is music of various styles, which is intended to create inspiration, relaxation, and positive feelings, often used by listeners for yoga, massage, inspiration, relaxation, meditation,^[1] and reading as a method of stress management^[2] or to create a peaceful atmosphere in their home or other environments often associated with environmentalism and New Age Spirituality.^[1]

The harmonies in New Age music are generally modal, consonant, or include a drone bass. The melodies are often repetitive, to create a hypnotic feeling, and sometimes recordings of nature sounds are used as an introduction to a track or throughout the piece. Songs of up to 30 minutes duration are common.

New Age music includes both electronic forms, frequently relying on sustained pads or long sequencer-based runs, and acoustic forms, featuring instruments such as flutes, piano, acoustic guitar and a wide variety of non-western acoustic instruments. In many cases, high-quality digitally sampled instruments are used instead of natural acoustic instruments. Vocal arrangements were initially rare in New Age music but as it has evolved vocals have become more common, especially vocals featuring Sanskrit, Tibetan- or Native American-influenced chants, or lyrics based on mythology such as Celtic legends or the realm of Faerie.

Some New Age music artists openly embrace New Age beliefs, while other artists and bands have specifically stated that they do not consider their own music to be New Age, even when their work has been labeled as such by record labels, music retailers, or radio broadcasters.

Glad this pressie reach California safe and sound. It's for Stephie's 21st Bday. It's a 'Magazine' all on her, for her by the U.S. Ususl Suspects. I always thought we were Unusual Suspects, and i find this name particularly more interesting. ;]

Anyway, this magazine was given to me after the guys had their share of decorations and in put. It's creative but a little messy and some loopholes to fill up. So, i meet up with Wendy one friday afternoon to fix it. We spent the whole afternoon, cutting, pasting, gluing, sticking all our silly old pictures(but they were indeed memorable though ZHENRU, some pics are super challenging to input la.! haha). Hope Stephie likes our final product. Happy Bday again!

Thus, I'm falling in love with scrapbook making lately, from Eugene Baby's frame to this. I will be making more. Such presents are meaningful and it comes from the heart. With effort and a dash of creativity, anybody can get their hands to try this. I'll be most happy to receive something like this too. Haha. Alright, more photos on facebook. Check them out.

Suddenly, i have this urge to blog so i am. In Borders because B wants to look for books on Sales Writing and it just suddenly dawned on me about the word 'life'. I'm curious since last year, "What is my purpose in life & what is my mission in life?" Do i seek to address unsolved issues possibly bought over from my past life or to let say, save the world or join in the climb up the social ladder to be rich? As i start my courses on business, finance, sales and bascially all about gaining knowledge and the expertise on financial growth, i start to ponder. Is fame and fortune all that we pursue and seek? Or, helping the less priviledge and being someone inspirational more of my dream? A recent trip by passing India, Kolkata made me think deep on my values. I went on a visit to Mother Theresa's Home and it is a catholic church as well, made me realise i wish to do the same. To be just like Mother Theresa, to help people. To give back because i feel so blessed for the place that i lived in, the upbringing and environment that i grew up in as compared to some poor parts of the world. And i mean, really poor. Slumdog millionaire? It isn't just a movie setting, what you see inside the movie is shown to me, exactly the way it is. I was wide awake. And, to the Sikkim School i went to, with no facilities, no lights, no books, nothing. I wish i bought some more sweets and biscuits with me during the trip for the kids. But, back to where i am. I'm well, sitting on the fence. I want both. I believe, being rich can help others but at the same time, that doesn't mean being poor couldn't. Maybe, on the pursue to richness minus the fame, i can thus be able to help people this way. Right now, i ought to keep my faith, to do what i ought to do. And, perhaps, my purpose in life will slowly unfolds itself. ;]
