4 October 2014

Overall I really liked the soundtrack. They had some really emotional songs and some funny ones too. I mean Owen listening to Willow Smith- Whip my hair was pretty funny. But oh my! Liv Tyler has a beautiful voice. And I sorta really dug those country songs for some reason. And they also didn`t overuse the music to enhance certain scenes, I felt they used their music in the right moments.

But my favorite song from S1 was in E10 and was by: SOKO - We Might Be Dead By Tomorrow.

The song came on while Grace was on a call with Tom a astronaut, who was dying of radiation poisoning. She put him on the line with his wife and daughter and they said their goodbyes. And man that scene killed me.

But the lyrics of the song were so fitting and made me reflect on my own life.

“Give me all your love now  Cause for all we know  We might be dead by tomorrow”

This verse made me think that I need to tell the people I love the most, now! and never waste another minute not telling them how I feel about them.

“But if you're not ready for love  How can you be ready for life?”

Yes, because in someway I do believe everything in live is connected to love.

“So let's love fully and let's love loud  And let's love now  Cause soon enough we'll die”

Yes, in a way like “all the way or no way” kinda love. Because if anything the last year has shown me, it is my own mortality and that life is short. So I`ve got to live in the now and live life to the fullest extent.

And also the quiet melody and the calming effect of the song are such a beautiful thing.

And another song I loved was in S1 E8. It was by Gloriettta - Someday 

TK and Owen have that conversation where TK admits he loves Buttercup and he is scared Owen is going to die. 

“Someday, someday  I'll forget about you  You'll forget about me”

“Someday, someday I won't recognize you You won't recognize me”

In a way that is true. One day we`ll die and I wont remember you and you me neither. But it could also be said for a past lover, someday one will get over that person and forget them.

“Tonight, gonna find a whole new reason  Tonight, to keep puttin' off leavin' you”

Study place part two

Cafe # 5 for 2017: Caffe Pascucci, Glorietta 2, Makati City

It was the same day as I went to Where’s Marcel when I first landed my feet here. I always see this place when I’m walking around the Holiday-Inn part. For me, this cafe is one of the coziest places to stay when you’re waiting for someone, when you want to rest after shopping or when you want to finish your schoolwork around Glorietta/Greenbelt/SM Makati/Landmark area. I had their mocha which was delicious and just right for my taste. Their brownie, however, tastes like more of a panna cotta to me. It was not too sweet so it was a good partner for my mocha. I wasn’t still able to finish it, though. The staff was also friendly enough. The place was a bit small but has its own comfort room. It was just really a bit pricey for the serving.
