Yes, I'm still alive!

Right then. I'm back after a REALLY long Sabbatical.

Excuses? Nada except plain laziness and the fact that I'm constantly under the watchful and rather prying eyes of my manager and let's not forget that I'm just a very very VERY busy girl. By the by, the last one was not only an excuse but also a downright lie. :D

Here's a link for starters: How To Save A Life

Y'all must have heard this one about a million times, but I'm ashamed to admit that I got around to listening to this one only say a few days ago. Some songs move me and this is definitely one of those. For those who don't know, this song is about troubled teens. I get choked up especially during the chorus and I have to say that the singer sings with a lot of emotion, which can be pretty difficult to convey. That's my opinion anyway.

Speaking about music and emotion, I've never really watched American Idol. When my sis got back from her biz trip with around 15 GB of American Idol '08 on her HDD, I was mildly disgusted. 'Umm, hello, don't the words Scrubs Season 7 mean anything to you?' I wanted to ask. Anyway, I decided to give it a chance and...

... My OH my! Not only is David Cook (American Idol '08) a very talented and an original singer, he is also super cute! :D Anyways, his prior experience in music gave him an extra edge in the competition and he reinvented a couple of risky songs which sounded great. To say the least, I am a fan.

Moving along, my family is in town. That event by itself is worth around 2-3 blog posts. :D

Aaaannnd me signing off this short note before my manager gives me the evil eye for the FOURTH time today.
