He Brought me To YOu

I just love this.....

HE BROUGHT ME TO YOU

xtian:in search of my life and my one true love
i pray to almighty god above
and his masterful voice directed me to
the many things i was destined to do
so i sailed across the mighty sea
persued knowledge of the highest degree
took to learning new things
experience new thrills
felt my life was completely fulfilled

at the end of my amazing quest
after proving myself by achieving success
i hope to find a prize so rare
priceless treasure beyond compare
for god promised he would give me love
a love without measure
trusting and true
and behold my dear sapphire
he brought me to you

sapphire:in dearch of my life and my one true love
i pray to almighty god above

the many things i was destined to do
and in my private reverie
i read of lands across the sea
i imagined enchanting hollow and hill
worlds beyond my windowsill

and through all of these
my fancy quest
i cherish the secret, held close to my breast
i hope to find a prize so rare
priceless treasure beyond compare
for god promised he would give me love
a love without measure
trusting and true
and behold my dear christian
and behold my dear sapphire
he brought me to you

this isn't a story but fantasy
it's as real as his love for me
the feeling is true
what i feel for you..

Seasons of Love

This song always makes me cry...

....On The Sound of Music

Who doesn't love The Sound of Music??? Probably none..I grew up watching the movie -The Sound of Music, must have watched it many,many times and I practically memorize all the songs,the scenes and the characters in the movie, the reason why I found it hard to believe seeing a picture of the Von Trapp children now....

[Von Trapp children today]

[was probably stucked in this image of them]

Mamma Mia...here i go again ^-^

Last night, I finally was able to watch "Mamma Mia"..It was not something we planned, but my sis just blurted out "let's go watch Mamma Mia" and we were off to checking what time was the last screening, worried that it may not be showing anymore, because it has been more than a week since it's first shown in theaters. I was just glad that it was still showing in one of the theaters, in a mall 30-minutes away from my place. While I've heard a lot of good reviews and feedback about the movie, I have to say, it exceeded my expectation. It was hilarious and heartwarming, and I was so diggin' Pierce Brosnan, who is still drop dead gorgeous and sings really well, and so does Collin Firth - I never knew he could sing. That was a surprise. It was such a fun movie and it's one of those that I would not get tired watching over adn over again. And the songs of Abba - it's always nice to hear them again, after a while - "Mamma Mia, here I go again, my, my, how can I resist you?"

Music of my Life

My influence in music hails from the fact that I came from a family of music lovers and from a grandfather who played the violin. Though I never got to learn it, I still can say that my earliest memory of my grandfather was spending New Year's in their home and listening to him play, and enjoying the fireworks afterwards. As I got older, I got introduced to the songs from the movie The Sound of Music. In fact I grew up with it. It's probably the one movie that I have seen the most number of times. I just never get tired watching it. And the songs, I know them by heart. Then I got hooked on listening to Tomorrow, from Annie, and if we can rewind the dates a little, I feel like I've heard the song Chiquitita for the longest time. It was just so familiar to me. And I knew the reason why - our neighbors were Abba fans and as my Ma had told me, when I was just a baby, these neighbors would keep playing Abba-thus the familiarity. When I started going to school, I couldn't study my lessons or do my homework without me listening to music. I never liked a very quiet bedroom, when studying. My music varies from rock,pop,jazz,Broadway,the classic and at a young age I was also listening to my father's records of Patti Page, Beatles and Bee Gees. Matt Monroe was in the list as well.

Through the years, I have learned to associate the different stages I went through in my life through songs. That's why it's hard for me to name just one favorite song. As I got more mature, I have found myself a perfect song - Baz Lhurmann's Everyone's Free to Wear Sunscreen.Though I've heard this so many times already, it still makes me cry every time. This song showed what a genius Lhurmann was, and as the say "the best advice one could ever get".
