The Champ (#TT73)

I like this song! I think Nelly really has a character in his music, which I love ;)

Besides this song, I don’t really have other positive things to say, actually.. just been doing project and preparing for exams. Most of my friends flew back home for Chinese New Year, (right, HAPPY CHINESE NEW YEAR for those who celebrated!)including my boyfie :( so yeah my CNY for this year was just BLAH. Last year and last 2 years were definitely merrier.

This week’s TT is just a short one since I dont want to put negativity in it further more. Send me some good vibes!!

Have a great week!

Teenage Dream: Simple Plan (#TT72)

Last Sunday was the best day so far for me in 2012!

“Yo bro let’s do this!” 

HEAVEN!!! <3

Simple Plan consists of:

Pierre Bouvier (lead vocals)

David Desrosiers (bass, backing vocals)   

Sebastien Lefebvre (guitar, backing vocals)

Jeff Stinco (lead guitar)  

Chuck Comeau (drums)

Haha I love this pic of Pierre, he looks so cute with his blushed cheeks :p

I miss them already!!! #postconcertdepression

I had a BLAST!!!!

Their music has become a big part of my life, especially throughout my teen years a.k.a those days when nobody understood me and I would lock my door and turned on their music out loud so nobody could hear me screaming. Hmmm did I just write their lyrics? Haha.

When I was in middle school my mom didn’t let me to go to their concert and I was totally depressed. But after 7 years, my teenage dream came true! :D

These guys will always have a “kid” soul in them and through them I’ll always have mine as well :)

Have a fantastic week!

E X C I T E D (#TT71)

And I'd give away a thousand days just to have another one with you.

Guess whaaaatttt?

I’m gonna see Simple Plan performing live this Sunday! SO STOKED!

Their latest album “Get Your Heart On!” is awesomeeee, although I find that they’re experimenting with pop a lot,  like their third and self-titled album “Simple Plan”. Well, there’s nothing wrong with pop, in fact I find it really interesting in this GYHO! album since every single song has a different characteristic and I enjoy that a lot :) Just like this week’s TT “Summer Paradise”, don’t you think that it’s got that Jason Mraz feel into it? This band really surprised me coz they apparently sound GOOD no matter what the music genre is! Pierre’s voice is just so cool!

Other things that excite me are:

06012012234   Finally I got myself ‘Devoted’! Still on chapter 3 right now.. I don’t have so much free time as final project just keeps me so occupied :/

06012012238 I passed the ABRSM exam, baby!! What bugs me though, is the fact that I only needed 2 more points to get a distinction. Although getting a merit is also satisfactory :)

It’s only Tuesday but I’m already wishing that weekend could come any faster.

Have a blessed week, everyone!

Time to Fly (#TT70)

Hello, lovelies!

This is the first TT of the year! :D

In starting this brand new year, I just wanna give you a song that will give you a pinch of confidence and motivation to tick all those things in your resolution list!

Enjoy! ;)

Any moment, everything can change,
Feel the wind on your shoulder,
For a minute, all the world can wait,
Let go of your yesterday

 

Can you hear it calling?
Can you feel it in your soul?
Can you trust this longing?
And take control

 

Fly
Open up the part of you that wants to hide away
You can shine,
Forget about the reasons why you can't in life,
And start to try, cause it's your time,
Time to fly

All your worries, leave them somewhere else,
Find a dream you can follow,
Reach for something, when there's nothing left,
And the world's feeling hollow

And when you're down and feel alone,
Just want to run away,
Trust yourself and don't give up,
You know you better than anyone else

How I miss Hilary Duff’s music! I hope she will get back in music soon bringing this type of genre :)

Good luck on your resolutions and have a wonderful year ahead!

xo, Jo
