  • Rewind #1: Upbeat!

    Reading my friend’s facebook status “Friday never hesitate….It’s Friday..I’m in love!“, it reminds me of my old time favorites. The Cure’s Friday I’m in Love is certainly one of my old time and all time favorites!

    Then, i tried to check my 35 GBs mp3 collection, doh!, way too many to check one by one, then i made a decision to quickly browse through and see which one catch my eyes.
    And, guys, these are within the list, i label these ‘Upbeat’:
    The Cure – Friday I’m in Love
    Joan Jett – I Hate Myself for Loving You
    Skid Row – 18 and Life
    Arkarna – Rehab Fatboy Slim – Rockafella Skank
    Live – The Dolphin’s Cry
    Lenny Kravitz – Again
    Hole – Celebrity Skin
    All Saints – Pure Shores
    The President of The USA – Video Killed the Radio Star
    Erasure – Always BIP – 1000 Puisi
    Ten fantastic tracks (not ranked, not sorted), yeah let’s just call this a random upbeat tracks, that I love the most at my younger age! :p
    ENJOY! (see my second list also!)
    Owh on more thing, do you remember this:

    “…The place where I wanna be, is the place I can call mine…”

    Or this,
    “…He fired his six-shot to the wind that blew a child away…!”
    Or this,

    “…can you here the dolphin’s cry?
    see the road rise up to meet us
    it’s in the air we breathe tonight
    love will lead us, she will lead us…”

    ENJOY! Rock On! 🙂

  • Control Your Own

    I had an argument, er discussion, with my colleagues. I was not happy, yeah let’s say pretty much “upset” about the subject and its outcomes. And suddenly it just hit my mind that ‘..what the hell that I am unhappy about?!..”, I was recalling to few simple statements from Stephen Covey, and urgh I felt that I was pretty much controlled by external factors. I surrendered my own capability to control my feeling.

    Man, we all should really practice the very basic of seven habit of effective people. It’s not easy, in fact it is a huge initiative – it’s hard, provocative -, but at the end we all really need to master the all the habits, don’t we?
