Hello December! I'm so glad you're finally here! You know you will always be my favorite for a number of reasons. First, it's Christmas season and Christmas is my favorite holiday. It feels homey. Second, I get to eat a lot without anyone commenting on how much and how often I eat, since everyone else is doing the same thing haha. Finally, December marks the end of the year , which means I can finally use my new planner/ diary/ journal. This year, I can say I'm very proud of myself for filling every page of my planner/ diary/ journal. I've never been this consistent. I went to National Bookstore earlier today and bought a washi tape with kawaii print. Can't wait to use my new planner.
Aaand one of the reasons why I'm blogging now is that a few days ago, I found some gems on Spotify. As you know Google (Google na lang, kasi wala namang nagbabasa nito lol), Haruki Murakami is my favorite writer. One day, I was listening to some tracks on Spotify, the usual ones ---jazz by The Jazz Hop Cafe, some Simon and Garfunkel, The Beatles. While listening to The Beatles' Norwegian Wood, I wondered if there were tracks that had something to do with Murakami. Searching for some wouldn't hurt, I thought to myself. And voila! I found these two:
Song Title: MURAKAMI
Artist: Made in Heights
Some lines that captivated me:
It's just a story though, is it a story though?
I can't tell if it happened 'cause it felt impossible
Don't know whether it was real or dream
Imagination playing tricks on me
Artist: Jason Reeves
Some lines that captivated me:
I chased that sheep
All the way out to Hokkaido
I couldn't find a thing
Anywhere, and I felt so alone
That I traveled back to Tokyo
To walk those neon streets
Weaving like
That you drew in silence
While your
And Bernstein vinyl played
Listening to every mark they made
These last few days were serene. Just me enjoying the peace and quiet. I feel like I'm on an island but I get to access anything in the mainland if I want to, but most of the time choose not to. Music, coffee, books, some amicable conversations, good food. I could not ask for more.
