The Most Wonderful Day of The Year....

I love love love Christmas songs.... Merry Christmas everyone!!!

This Christmas....

One day..... My fireside will be blazing bright and I'll have a very special Christmas for me...

If I Believe.....

My Current Mood......

If I believe in magic spells, it all would be so clear....
A magic spell must have brought you here.....
If I can see the future, I'd see if you and I were meant to be....

That's All...

Another night of me cruising down the world of YouTube and came across this girl singing one of my favorite songs... I must've watched this video a million times. She's not attractive, her voice is not all there, but how she made this song Bossa Nova style made her gain a fan...

Only Hope....

Have you ever had a moment where you hear a song and for that instant moment, it brought you back in time??? As if someone had put you in a time machine and you suddenly find yourself standing and watching the past... this song brought me back to that time... "2002"

Rainy Days and Mondays....

It's Friday, It's raining, I'm home and alone.... My current mood....

Waters of March...

Once again, I found myself embracing the music of Brazil...

I Know Him So Well... Susan Boyle & Elaine Paige

Could you tell I am now a fan of Susan Boyle? Months before this performance, someone had asked Susan Boyle who she would like to be a successful as, her answer was "Elaine Paige"... People laughed at her... After seeing this video, who's laughing now? My point is, DREAM BIG Worry Small.... Believing in yourself is the only way to get to the place where you want to be. The proof is shown below...

Paul Potts....

Today, as I was watching Vh1's "40 Greatest Reality Moments", I came across this video of Paul Potts.... after watching it over 5x... I became a big fan.... Love love people who are humble. The kind of people who are just a "normal Joe" and doesn't know what good quality they posses...

Find Your Love....

I'm more than just an option
Refuse to be forgotten
And I feel it taking over

I better find your love and
I better find your heart
I bet if I give all my love
Then nothings gonna tear us apart

I’m more than just a number
I doubt you’ll find another
It’s more than just a mission
You hear but you don’t listen
You better pay attention
And get what you been missing

Someday We'll Know....

..... So many questions, I Need an answer...
Years later, he's still on my mind....

OMG....

This song keeps me pumped up.... I could run for miles just listening to this song... Among other songs of course...

The Sweetest Love....

Why do people smile when no one’s smiling?
It's 'coz their thinking of someone they’re loving....
Keep on believing we are meant to be and
Nothing’s stopping you and me from going to heaven....

Someone to Watch Over Me.......

The words says it all....

Fly Like A Bird....

“When you're young, your whole life is about the pursuit of fun. Then, you grow up and learn to be cautious. You could break a bone or a heart. You look before you leap and sometimes you don't leap at all because there's not always someone there to catch you. And in life, there's no safety net. When did it stop being fun and start being scary?” .......

Somewhere Only We Know....

Oh simple thing, where have you gone?
I'm getting old and I need something to rely on
So tell me when you're gonna let me in
I'm getting tired and I need somewhere to begin

And if you have a minute, why don't we go
Talk about it somewhere only we know?
This could be the end of everything
So why don't we go somewhere only we know?
Somewhere only we know

If Only You Knew....

Go figure who this song is for...

To be continued.....

Moon River.....

Two drifters, off to see the world....There's such a lot of world to see....
We're after the same rainbow's end.... Waitin' 'round the bend... My huckleberry friend, Moon River, and me...

So Nice...

The story of my heart....

A Penny for Your Thoughts....

My current mood....

At Last.....

Tonight, I'm gonna be selfish and claim this song... The lyrics couldn't get any more perfect on how I want my life to be the moment I find my match...But I must admit, everytime I see this video, it just gives me the goosebumps... It makes me feel proud for both Obama and Beyonce.... is that cheezy or what? :)P

The Way We Were...

I must've watched this movie a billion times... and just like "When Harry Met Sally", I could still watch it over and over again...

The Prayer.....

To my grandfather.... I LOVE YOU...

God Only Knows....

I'll leave the title for your imagination.....

Make It Mine.....

Wake up everyone
How can you sleep at a time like this?
Unless the dreamer is the real you
Listen to your voice
The one that tells you to taste past the tip of your tongue
Leap and the net will appear

I don't wanna wake before
The dream is over
I'm gonna make it mine
Yes, I... I wanna own it
I'm gonna make it mine
Yes, I'll make it all mine

I keep my life on a heavy rotation
Requesting that it's lifting you up
Up, up and away
And over to a table at the gratitude café

And timing's everything,
and this time there's plenty
I am balancing,
Careful and steady,
And reveling in energy that everyone's emitting

Well, I don't wanna wait no more
Oh, I wanna celebrate the whole world
I'm gonna make it mine
Because I'm following your joy

I'm gonna make it mine
Because I... I am opened
I'm gonna make it mine
That's right... I wanna show it
I'm gonna make it, it mine

Diggin' on you....

The song that reminds me of my CSM days....

I Wish That I Was Making Love....

FOB time for a moment... Don't think of the title but listen to the melody... this song reminds me of my "Me" time in Boracay, Philippines..... I could still vividly see myself as I walk along Boracay shores, looking at the parasailers above the sky, people watching, and smiling to those who would either say hi to me or smile at me.... love love love that moment... "Unforgettable"...

Sympatique....

This song will always remind me of my trip to Germany and Austria.... Love the feeling of traveling alone and not having to worry about anything. I met interesting people along the way and those time spent will always remain in my treasure chest. I definitely wouldn't mind being a solo traveler again. Next destination of solo traveling will be either Peru or France...

"Crush".....

Ohhhhhhwwww Maaaaaaa Gaaawwwwddddd.... I'm totally lovin' YouTube right now. Once again it brought me back to my memory lane of the 80's..... Bayside Middle School, Ice skating rink in Fashion Island, and the bus stop along Norfolk and Kehoe... my carefree years that will always remain in my treasure chest....

Boyz N The Hood.....

A friend of mine mentioned something about NWA on facebook.. I once again found myself on memory lane of the 80s.... and I remembered this song as the only rap song I memorized by heart... LOL Yes yes I do have a ghetto side in me.... I truly liked this song and few other rap songs... but they'll never catch me rappin' it though!! HEllllz NO!!! Not unless they see me in my car rappin' to it! LOL

"Reality".....

This is my very first favorite song next to Menudo's "If You're not Here".... It's also the very first French movie I've watched.... "La Boum".... I was only eight years old when I saw this...OHhh gotta love YOUTUBE for allowing me to step in to my childhood memory lane....

Les Yeux Ouverts...

When I hear this song, it makes me want to do something artsy... Hence, when I do listen to this song, I would sometimes find myself exploring the bay and try to capture all the beauty I see through my lens at that particular moment.... (www.judygalvez.com)

C'est si bon.....

This song (not the lyrics but just the melody) reminds me of a guy who opened up a window of myself that I didn't know I have... I will forever be thankful to him for allowing me to see part of his world... The world that made me want to do the same.... As good of a friend he is to me to this day, he will never know the impact he made in my life... All I have to say is this.... if he and his wife ever needs me, I will be there for them in a heartbeat...

Corcovado....

Once again, I found myself embracing the music of Brazil. Corcovado (Quiet Nights Quiet Stars).... one of my ultimate favorite songs written by Antonio Carlos Jobim... This song was revived by Trio Esperanca.. love love the combination of their voices... What a perfect way to start my Sunday morning....

Miss Independent....

Someone must've thought about me when this song was written... The lyrics, it's written all over me...

.... there's somethin about the kinda woman that want you but dont need you...
....her favorite thing to say "dont worry I got it"
....and everything she got best believe she bought it

It Might Be You....

Another nostalgic moment..... This song reminds me of the time when I was still living in the Philippines.... Remeniscing about our house maid... remembering the look on her face and how much she cherished the sound of this song as she folded our clothes.... I wonder who she was thinking of? Funny how I suddenly found myself, 27 years later, listening to thesame song and thinking of who could be the guy for me... Maybe it's "him"....

Finding Out The Hard Way....

It's passed midnight and I suddenly found myself having a nostalgic moment... Came across this song as I was crusin' down the YouTube world... I must say, this song brought me back... wayyy back....

Somewhere In Time....

The music piece that took me 25 years to learn... Next goal is to actually memorize it....

Raincoat.....

Raindrops bang like rocks
On my window pane
I thought they'd never stop
Never see the sun again

And I've been sleeping in
For way too long
Mmm, wake up, enough's enough
Yeah, those days are gone

I'm gonna throw out my raincoat
Mmm, I hope it's all right
Gonna go find me a rainbow
And hang it up in the sky

I don't need those blues hanging around ......

Make It Mine.....

....And timing's everything,
and this time there's plenty
I am balancing,
Careful and steady,
And reveling in energy that everyone's emitting

Well, I don't wanna wait no more
Oh, I wanna celebrate the whole world
I'm gonna make it mine.....

Put Your Records On....

Maybe sometimes, we feel afraid, but it's alright
The more you stay the same, the more they seem to change.
Don't you think it's strange?

Girl, put your records on, tell me your favorite song
You go ahead, let your hair down
Sapphire and faded jeans, I hope you get your dreams,
Just go ahead, let your hair down.

You're gonna find yourself somewhere, somehow....

Anos Dourados...

Current mood: I'm loving the music of Brazil. I totally admire any songs that were written by Antonio Carlos Jobim and sung by either Astrud Gilberto or Gal Costa. For this instant moment, my mind wandered off and found myself walking on the beaches of Rio de Janeiro...

The Same Love.....

This song seems to be the story of my love life.... Haven't really changed much to this day... It looks like it's time for me to find a way to break my pattern...

Rhapsody on a theme of Paganini/Somewhere In Time

The music that gets me in deep thoughts and makes me want to write more on my journal....

A Certain Sadness....

I just simply love this song... It makes me want to go back to Brazil just to meet Astrud Gilberto. Love love love all of her songs.

Schindler's List....

To this day, this music theme still gives me the chills....

Somewhere Beyond The Sea....

Somewhere beyond the sea
somewhere waiting for me
my lover stands on golden sands
and watches the ships that go sailin'

Somewhere beyond the sea
he's there watching for me
If I could fly like birds on high
then straight to his arms
I'd go sailin'

It's far beyond the stars
it's near beyond the moon
I know beyond a doubt
my heart will lead me there soon....

I Made It Through The Rain.....

We dreamers have our ways
Of facing rainy days
And somehow we survive....
We keep the feelings warm
Protect them from the storm
Until our time arrives....
Then one day the sun appears
And we come shining through those lonely years...
Just aim beyond the clouds and rise above the crowds
And start your own parade....

Rainbow....

Life's full of challenges
Not all the time
We get what we want
But don't despair, my dear
You'll take it each trial
And you'll make it through the storm
Cause youre strong
My faith in you is clear
So I say once again
This world's beautiful
Let us celebrate life
That is so beautiful
So beautiful...

Forevermore....

The song that brings me back to Italy reminding me of a very special friend I once knew... My "Forevermore"....
