if the sky falls on my head while i am chasing butterflies, so be it
every moment, every turning point, every romantic encounter in life, has been marked with a distinct song. our frailties, dreamy encounters and setbacks are always reflected with a soundtrack- a tune which brings us back, a button that allows us to freeze time and playback all those precious moments, good or bad.

Call it my birthday present to myself.

On Saturday, I paid $170 for this Yashica T-AF compact camera. It shoots 35mm film. You must be wondering...... Why in this day and age, when I already have 3 Dslrs of various sizes for different purposes?I will have to admit, this one's a little bit excessive, but this unremarkable-looking brick of plastic comes with a Carl Zeiss Tessar lens! Together with with its successors the T3, T4, T5, it has acquired something of a cult status among camera enthusiasts. I am running a roll through it now. Can't wait to see the results.

Ben Gibbard clone? Very good nonetheless.
Owl City, a one-man outfit made up of Minnesota's Adam Young sounds so uncannily like Ben Gibbard, it had me and Liangting , both of us big fans of DCFC and the Postal Service, fooled. While a lot of people on the internet are accusing Adam Young of ripping off the Postal Service, it makes more sense to me, as we await Ben Gibbard's next offering, to just sit back and chill out to Owl City's delightful blend of electronica and emo-pop.
