Ewan - Musings and another Music Survey

I'll take this opportunity to blog since the next thing that I will post will be promotions for my upcoming ESS project and also since I'll probably be swamped by schoolwork for the next week or so. Another academic cycle is starting once more.

Like in economics where there is a business cycle of expansion-recession, academic life (at least, mine) is also marked by a cycle - a cycle of stress and slack(ing off). And it so happens the slacking stage is ending after the stress of our polsci report and 2 long test from my major subjects. The stress stage is coming once more - this time in the form of both acads and extra-curricular activities. I have about 12 pounds worth of readings to go through including a book for our report on Wednesday.Also my long delayed project is finally approved and set for Friday and Saturday. I must promote that vigorously and I don't know how or if there is even much time. Gah I hate being a project head.

Another month has blurred past me again. And now it's February again. Oh how time flies.

And now to the music survey I saw from Jacky's site. I did a different music survey last September (wow, so long ago) that was really funny (http://stargazerspoint.blogspot.com/2007_09_01_archive.html) so I tried this one too to see what the weird, often accurate and funny results will be.

1. Put your music player on shuffle.
2. Press forward for each question.
3. Use the song title as the answer to the question


1. What does this year have in store for me?
I Could Not Ask For More - Edwin Mccain (This must be a great year. haha)

These are the moments I thank God that I'm alive
These are the moments I'll remember all my life
I've got all I've waited for
And I could not ask for more


2. What does your love life look like?
Come Around - Rhett Miller (God that so hit the mark. hahaha)

Am I gonna be lonely for the rest of my life
Am I gonna be lonely for the rest of my life
I'm gonna be lonely for the rest of my life
Unless you come around
So come around "


3. What do I say when life gets hard?

Sampip (solo)- Parokya ni Edgar (Another good answer. hehe)

"I'll just close my eyes and just go to sleep"
<- Perfect me
But a better line will be -
"call me crazy i just don't care
I'll never quit it so you better beware"


4. What do I think of when I get up in the morning?
Martyr Nyebera - Kamikazee (My parents)

"paggising sa umaga
mukha mo ang nakita
wala pang nagawa nakasimangot na"

Wag na Wag Mong Sasabihin - Kitchie Nadal (Well, the survey is bound to miss sometime.c'mon, you can't dance to this song. hehe)

6. What do you want as a career?
Tulog na - Sugarfree (What's with me and sleeping? )

7. Your favorite saying?
Cruisin' - Gweneth Paltrow and Huey Lewis ( I love this song)

"and if you want it you got it forever"

8. Favorite place?

"Cause tonight I leave my fears behind
Cause tonight I'll be right at your side"


9. What do you think of your parents?
Chicksilog - Kamikazee (Guess that's another miss)

10. Where would you go on a first date?
Chasing Cars - Snow Patrol ( Could be - I'm lazy (or broke) to go out. Hehe)
"If I lay here
If I just lay here
Would you lie with me and just forget the world? "


11. Drug of choice?
Ikaw Lamang - Silent Sanctuary (yeah. Perfect answer haha)

"Sa lahat ng aking ginagawa
Ikaw lamang ang nasa isip ko sinta"


12. Describe yourself.
Akin ka na lang - Itchyworms (Well, at least it's consistent with the other music survey - still says I'm jealous. <_< )

13. The song that will be played at your funeral?
Bulong - Kitchie Nadal (I must have left some sad people. Hehe. Also the chorus sounds supernatural since this is supposed to be for my funeral)
"Ikaw ba'y nalulungkot?
Nababalut pa ng poot,
maraming hinanakit sa mundo.
Di alam anong gagawin kundi ubusin ang oras sa gin.
Akala mo'y iya'y may mararating.

Hoy kaibigan ko!
Pakinggan mo ang mga bulong sa ‘yo.
Ito'y di galing sa mundo.
Patungo sa pangakong paraiso."


14. What's your pornstar name?
I wanna be with you - Mandy Moore (I sound like one needy desperate pornstar)

15. What is my state of mind like at the
moment?

It Ends Tonight - All American Rejects (Emo? Meh - sabaw lang sa schoolwork)

16. How will I die?
Para Sayo - Parokya ni Edgar ( Perfect. Well, it almost happened once before [ and no, that wasn't cryptic love life talk]. Ask the ES freshmen. hehe)
