Music Mayhem Spotlight: Bastille

Bastille. A new up and coming band had just released their debut album "Bad Blood" today. Me, having loved a number of their songs--flaws, what would you do and pompeii, I simply had to get hold of a copy so I quickly downloaded the whole album.

Here is the Track List of the Album:
Pompeii
Things We Lost In The Fire
Bad Blood
Overjoyed
These Streets
Weight Of LivingPt. II
Icarus
Oblivion
Flaws
Daniel In The Den
Laura Palmer
Get Home

I Loved this album. there was not one song that I skipped and thats a very rare thing for me to do. each song was amazing in its own right. If you're not convinced on the epicness of this album, then I shall give you 3 points why you should buy this record.
1. Bastille is a Unique band. they're different-- Seriously, I can't think of any band to actually compare them to. they are bastille. they are different. period.
2. The songs in the album are all amazing. I especially loved Flaws, Things we lost to the flames and pompeii!
and last but not the least, 3. It's a relevant album. the songs. the band. everything about it. it's not about swagger, not about YOLO (not not that I have anything against it but...you know.)it's about real things. Real emotions. and I like that.

thanks for reading my blog! and sorry if I havent been updating lately I am just so busy with university! it's crazy! like seriously. we literally dont have time to even have proper sleep. anyway, enjoy! (:

PT Life milestone Part 1. (:

Hi there!
So.. This evening, we had voice practice (I guess) for our pinning and candle lighting ceremony as Physical Therapy Students. Basically its a right of passage to becoming a Physical Therapy Student. but as we were practicing, I was filled with emotions. Mixed Emotions. I was a mix of happiness, doubtful and a little sadness. So i was pretty distracted-- as usual.

I was happy cause I was one of those that made the cut--barely though, but I did. I made the cut. I guess, it kinda is a big deal(?) I suppose, making the cut on the count that almost more than half of our batch didnt make it. but for some reason I felt that I could have done better, I could do better with my performance but! I get distracted way too easily and I seem to never run out of things to be obsessed with! BigBang, One Direction, JacksGap, The Script, John Green books, etc. So yeah. rambling again. sorry. haha. 

I was doubtful cause I'm still quite torn about this course. cause honestly, Its sucking the life out of me. Living 4 straight weeks filled with exams can take a toll on your morale. But still, I'm not giving  up. I cant just let my dreams of becoming a PT to the hot football players of europe (haha! cheeky!) go because the road is getting a little rockier and dimmer. but seriously, I've always wanted to help people survive and get back up from the tragedies in their lives and PT is the perfect profession for that. You help them get back on their feet (can be literal of figuratively) help them get back what they lost in a tragic event in their life. And make a difference in their lives. Making a difference in other people's lives is what makes a life count. well, atleast in my opinion.

I was sad too cause we were only 19 during the practice out of the 41 of us that entered junior year this first semester. somehow, somewhat, Something was missing. People that I've shared the same troubles, heartaches and headaches werent there. I thought they deserved to take part in this ceremony with us. but oh well, rules are rules. 

So yeah. It's already midnight here and i've got yet another exam tomorrow (surprise ,surprise!) and I'm quite sleepy already so.. I guess this is where I bid yo Good bye. (:

Get on your feet and stop making tired excuses.
