Soundtrack of my life so far.....

I listen to music when I'm happy
I listen to music when I'm feeling blue
I listen to music to concentrate
I listen to music when I'm feeling lonely
I listen to music when I'm trying to motivate myself

Basically music has been a part of my life since as far back as I can remember.

I used to make up compilation tapes when I was at home of songs I liked from the radio or albums of artists/bands I loved.
I went through different types of music in my life from Jazz, Classical, Rn B, Pop, Rock, Dance...there is not any single type of music which I like...I'm a fan of all types of music.

I used to collect CD albums but a few of my favourite tapes and CD albums have been shipped back or gone missing when we moved from house to house...
I've tried to download old songs which I miss but its not the same as having the originals...
I will hopefully be getting my new Ipod nano soon thanks to my lil reward gift. So I'll be able to have more songs to listen during my travelling trips... Thank you :)

When I moved down to London, I enjoy going to gigs and concerts when I had the time with like-minded people who enjoyed music like I do...

I was trying to think of my top ten songs which reflect my life so far .It was difficult cutting down my favourite songs into only ten but I think this is the list so far:

Song 1) Janji Manismu -Aishah
When I was just a lil girl, I saved up my pocket money in order to buy her album and this song reminds me of the time I lived in Sitiawan.

Song 2)Hero-Mariah Carey

I often sang this song at the school playground during lunchtime with d lunchtime gang...it reminds me of the schooldays in Glasgow...

Song 3)You'll Never walk alone-Gerry and the Pacemakers
Pat, Gemma, Vanita-My mates from Glasgow made me a 'leaving compilation tape' before I moved to boarding school in Edinburgh. During the first few months in Edinburgh, I often felt homesick but their compilation tape filled with jokes and fav songs made me laugh everytime...

Song 4) Round Here-Counting Crows
This song reminds me when my ex boyfriend took me to the Counting Crows concert in London on our first date together. Before we went to the concert, he wanted me to listen to all of their songs in their album to try to convince me to go with him- he succeeded and I do still love their songs and would listen to it from time to time...

Song 5) Independent Women-Destiny's Child

Nija (my uni flat mate) and I loved Destiny's Child and loved to watch them perform live......
The song reminds me of the good time we had as flat mates and our uni years...

Song 6) My Body-Pretty Ricky

This song was playing on the van throughout our shopping trip to McArthur Glen Outlet with the London peeps-Lini, Meem,Abang Nas,Mas,Me...

Song 7)Noerul Saranghae-Gong Yoo

I love Korean dramas -especially the Coffee Prince and Kak Rahayu and I absolutely adore him-This song reminds me of the sleepovers we had watching the K-drama...

Song 8)Dream Catch Me-Newton Faulkner

I listened to this song while I was trying to gather my thoughts while I was taking a walk at Hyde Park.This song reminded me of how I upset I was when I found out I didn't pass my last paper for the ICAS exam-It was a turning point in my life where I wanted to make changes in my life and setting new goals on what I want to and can still achieve in my life....

Song 9)Umbrella-Rihanna
This song was playing when I was going through some changes in my life last year and it's so uplifting...I kept playing this song over and over again for months.....

Song 10)Mungkin-Anuar Zain

I met him for the first time in June when I went home this year with my cousins: he is an amazing singer and the most down to earth and decent guys I have met irrelevant of his celebrity status..
If only more Malay guys can have the attributes he does...

In the future there will be other songs (old and new) which will be part of the stories of my life which have yet to happen....
