a ticking bomb

that's how i feel right now.

I feel that I'm on the edge of something I'm not in control of. I could fall down or hold on but either way, something, eventually has to give.

For the past three months, I realized that I'm in a depressed state. That my life is not going anywhere. That I'm simply, slowly wasting myself.

Am looking for a break-through. Actually, I'm just hoping for one but I don't think I've made any progress. I've reached out to friends but they don't believe that I got any problem at all.

So, am I just being mellow-dramatic here or I'm seeking out the wrong friends.

Maybe a major catharsis or some death wish. :|

(or a religion, too)

So, why am I doing this? Well, because I can. :P

Hmm ... I can't add tags to my posts though.

Los Angeles Server

Meet Peter, Bjorn and John

Last night (I think it was actually this morning), I was working at home and left the TV on for background noise. It's too quiet here.

I left the channel on Jay Leno's Tonight Show. Somewhere in the middle of the show, they featured a band singing a nice tune. Since I'm online, I went ahead and google'd the lyrics. Found them, of course and I found out who they were.

Their a Swedish group called Peter, Bjorn and John and they were singing Young Folks. Try out their site for more videos, courtesy of you tube.



What do I like about their songs? I think they simple, unassuming music they churn out. Most likely, a reflection of the mood I'm having of late.

And if you like to hear other similar artists, try

This made by day!

Like the good, old doctor said, "laughter is the best medicine."

Here's a site that gives me my daily dose of good, hearty laughs: Very Funny Ads.

Actually, they collect the funny adverts from all over.

Try something from Japan, Thailand or from this "lucky" kid from France.

Wala pang galing sa Pilipinas eh. Korny talaga natin!

PS.
Didn't the doctor always tell us to practice safe sex? Here's one more reason why you should.
