| | Today, for no particular reason, I feel like I can breathe easy. It feels like I've gotten off the roller coaster which I had been on for the past weeks (about 2 months?).
I'm feeling kinda upbeat, so I'm just go on and on and I don't care if I don't make much sense!
Why is it that there's always a perfect song for the best and worst emotions you go through? When it's an extreme emotion I'm experiencing, I look for a song that can represent that.
I think it's music that has helped me shake off the blues, because I would just bury myself in work and never take my headphones off the past 2 weeks.
I am one of the people I know with the most diverse musical tastes -- I've been listening to Metallica (Black Album), Sugababes, Kaskade, Gnarls Barkley, Red Hot Chilli Peppers (love Stadium Arcadium), Juanes, Gipsy Kings, Sly & The Family Stone, The Supremes, The Temptations, and the rest of them 70s disco, Bamboo, 90s Rivermaya, Robbie Williams, George Michael, Scissor Sisters (I worship you), Mos Def & Talib Kweli, Outlandish (Google them! They have vids on youtube too) , Black Eyed Peas, Bone Thugs n' Harmony, Mariah, N.E.R.D., Sahakira, etc etc etc.
I was very much into alternative and rock in highschool -- who wasn't in the mid-90s? Well ok, not everyone...but most of us teenagers were. -- and my highschool B4E (best friend forever - we used to sign our notes ith ILY & B4E ) has always said I'm a rocker chick. I adored Metallica. But with the surge of hiphop / rnb in the late 90s and early 00s, i kinda moved to that as well. But now, I have to admit, rocker chick is so back. I'm not into the whole rocker lifestlye and vibe (maaan...) like black clothes (even though I wear a lot of black tops, the reason for which is not to be a rocker) and tattoos and piercings, but I love the music. The guitars and drums...mmm...I like. Why do I talk about this all of a sudden though? Because last night I watched Rockstar Supernova and I Jason Newsted again. Plus, I like Gilby Clarke's whole chill rockstar vibe.
Wishing I could afford to watch the Black Eyed Peas tonight, but right now I'll take that "sadness" from the fact that I can't be in Araneta tonight and have this general positivity instead. Go APL, reprezent!
Feels good to be out of the woods, I hope i can sustain this.
rock n' roll! \m/
