Anthems of my youth

It's the start of the work week and I'm feeling fine! Maybe mostly because I've stocked a week's worth of my, er, hyper juice. You know that Nescafe iced coffee in cans? It keeps me charged without making me dizzy like the usual coffee. Amazing. Anyway here are some videos I started my day with - two of my favorite songs from college. 

I love Sarah Bettens because she's a great song writer and her voice is just incredibly raw. She always writes about things that are almost in your hands - almost there but not quite. I think discontent is a human body part. We're all always discontented, it's lodged right up there near our appendix. The key to being happy is accepting that it will always be there and appreciating that other things in our life are working just fine.

Here's another song - it's sad and wistful and hopeful. I think it captures the feeling of finally having everything you want, and then realizing that they pale in comparison to the one thing that should matter most

Anyway, it's a beautiful morning and I need to walk my dog. Before I leave, here's wonderful news from one of my fave brands, Clinique! It's bonus time once again. Starting September 1 to September 23, get a generous toiletry set just by purchasing P4,500 worth of Clinique stuff.

It's great that you're feeling recharged and ready to face the work week. I'm still feeling sleepy haha I don't think I've heard any of Sarah Bettens' songs! I'll definitely give them a listen. Thanks for the FYI on Clinique's promo.

Why does coffee make you dizzy?

Gosh I love the songs, most especially that one from Sarah Bettens. I never knew her, just now and I ended up downloading her songs! Her voice is really soothing. The "I'm Okay" song made me cry. I really felt it. :'(
