Memories are hazy

 It's 445am, just finished taking my sahur. I have a test for my well drilling and equipment course in 5 hours so I'm not going back to sleep. Its been a busy week and so is the next. Thank god the holidays start after that, can't wait for a break. I'm actually planning to go on a road trip with my friends to Canberra for Raya. Not sure if I have the money or even if the driver's license applies here, don't have the time to think it through yet. But here's hoping its an all go. Seriously need a change of enviroment and pace in my life right now.

Yeah, I've been stuck in my head lately and lost in my thoughts and the world of assignments, reports and tests.  My social life has been a little dead lately, thank god I have my housemates who makes life less sunyi. I've been so down lately, heartaches and worries of future outcomes. I've found a new cure for it though, listening to Phil Collin songs... Haha, I just put his album on in my IPOD and his music justs...well makes life enduring. Yeah some of his songs are sad, but some are uplifting at the same time. The sad songs reflect what I find true sometimes, reflecting is part of the healing process. Here's one song I've been listening to in repeat:

PHIL COLLINS -"I'VE FORGOTTEN EVERYTHING"
I've forgotten everything about you
'til someone says your name
I've forgotten all the reasons I loved you
'til someone tells me that you rang

The memories are hazy now
I don't recall at all
there's nothing, there's nothing there
just me
and I don't understand why

I can't recollect my feelings
'til someone mentions that they saw you
I really don't remember all the things you said
'til someone shows me where you live

Why is everything so hazy now
I don't recall at all
there's nothing, there's nothing there
just me
and I don't understand why

I can't recall your smile
the touch of your hand holding mine
and I can't remember why
holding you seemed so right

The memories they're hazy now
I don't recall at all
there's nothing, there's nothing there
just me
and I don't understand why

I've forgotten everything about you
'til someone says your name
I've forgotten all the reasons I loved you
'til someone tells me that you rang


Beautiful song, it has a jazzy loungy type feel to it. When the trumpet/saxophone plays, it just warms my soul. And phil's echoing voice...wow. He has such a power... meh, I envy people who make good music. heheh, well, I think I better get back to studying. Happy fasting you guys...
