SeaSands in the Sun

About a couple of weeks back I was on a plane leaving from Sarawak to Kuala Lumpur. I sat in the middle and then later switched with my friend for the window seat. I packed my stuff at the last minute and couldn't upload my songs in the mp3 - so I had to resort listening to Oreja's selections. She claimed her song list was "very good". The clouds were beautiful and then it started getting very cloudy and there was some turbulence. So I decided to close the shade of the window and listen to my mp3. I switched on the player and these were the songs I got!! (among others) I could say it's a compilation of songs NOT to listen to when you have bad turbulence! 1. All Good Things Come to an End - Nelly Furtado (oh uh) 2. Finally - Fergie (finally we're going to our Eternal Home?) 3. Bye Bye - Mariah Carey 4. Crush - David Archuleta (thank God it wasn't Crash Boom Bang by Roxette, if not I think I'd have a minor heart attack!) 5. Resah - Nitrus (Resah = Nerv...

I stumbled upon this song last year - and till now I still love it~ It's called Mon Essentiel (My Essential) taken from a French musical Le Roi Soleil depicting the story of the Sun King - King Louis XVI. This is a song where the king sings (in the musical) his love to Marie - an Italian emigrant with no noble birth (according to Wiki ). I had a post about it last year - please click here for more info. Here's the video of the song sung by the cast: and here's the official video clip (I think)

Last Thursday I went for a short trip to Malaysia's capital city - Kuala Lumpur to spend some time with Addy . On the bus after touching down at Low Cost Carrier Terminal (LCCT). It's situated right next to Kula Lumpur International Airport (KLIA). The airport is about an hour away from the city. So once you touch down, you purchase a bus ticket and off you go to the city. All busses stop at KL Central. The ticket booth is very easy to locate. Addy gave great instructions! On the way. I flew using AirAsia - squint and you can see the plane in the pic. Met Addy and she took me to a new mall - Pavillion (she told me it's about a year old) Swanky Had lunch at the food court - lots of varities Watched Marley & Me with Addy and cried. I read the book previously and I cried buckets then. I told myseld I'm not gonna watch it.. Addy treated me to the movie. I cried less though.. hehe was prepared! and the book was more descriptive.. >. The we had Ice cream fondue at Ba...

I spent a great day with Addy today. Am grateful that this ever happened as I was so close to not getting checked-in this morning for my flight. Thanks Oreja for driving me to the airport! I'm flying off to Sarawak, East Malaysia tomorrow for a friend's wedding! Till I return, take care and have a great weekend!

Mystery of the sole feather: What happened to the rest of them?
