Of Movies and Music

The past few days was rather laid back as my class hasn’t started yet. So, what's a slacker extraordinaire to do? What else but to watch some VCDs and laze around. Heheh… Watched ‘School of Rock’. This movie sure rocks. Really enjoyed it. =) The girls’ vocals in this movie is amazing (if they’re really singing in this movie lah). Jack Black is funny in his intense way in this movie. This movie reminds me how much I missed watching jamming sessions. *sigh* Last time my uni used to held jamming sessions every Wednesday but for whatever reasons they’ve cancelled it. I really missed those days when I ‘lepak’ with my friends and listen to the music.

Also watched '50 first dates'. This movie is a hilarious one. A wonderful romantic comedy that sure tickles ur heart into 'Awww... so sweet...'. Hehehe. Don't wanna spoil u the surprise, go and watch it yourself kay... =)

Been listening to my CDs lately. Mostly Sheryl Crow. I simply love her music. ‘My Favorite Mistake’ has always been my favorite song (let’s see… Since 1998, if I’m not wrong). Here's the lyric for the song.

MY FAVORITE MISTAKE

I woke up and called this morning
The tone of your voice was a warning
That you don't care for me anymore

I made up the bed we sleep in
I looked at the clock when you creep in
It's 6 a.m. and I'm alone

Did you know when you go
It's the perfect ending
To the bad day I was just beginning
When you go all I know is
You're my favorite mistake

Well, your friends are sorry for me
They watch you pretend to adore me
But I'm no fool to this game

Now here comes your secret lover
She'd be unlike any other
Until your guilt goes up in flames

Did you know when you go
It's the perfect ending
To the bad day I've gotten used to spending
When you go all I know is
You're my favorite mistake
You're my favorite mistake

Well maybe nothin' lasts forever
Even when you stay together
I don't need forever after
It's your laughter won't let me go
So I'm holding on this way

Did you know, could you tell
You were the only one
That I ever loved
Now everything's so wrong

Did you see me walking by?
Did it ever make you cry?

You're my favorite mistake
You're my favorite mistake
You're my favorite mistake

Hmm… Somehow, I felt that I can identify myself in that song. Met someone that i thought is perfect for me, ignoring all the signs that it's going nowhere, sacrificing until i finally realized that maybe I'll be better off and happier without the relationship. Listened to this song when my relationship was going through a rough and rocky phase. Even though the relationship has ended, I know that this mistake is my favorite one. To you-know-who-u-are, thanks for the two years we've spent together. We've had good memories together. We'll remain as friends always.
