Baby by Justin Bieber (Cover)


I feel awfully inspired to pick up guitar. I know I've been saying that for the longest time.. but I have no aptitude for it! It's difficult to teach myself cuz' I don't give myself pressure haha. And that = slacking off. How much are lessons anyway??? I was gonna save up for another trip (oh yay! imaginary trip! where would you like to go?) ... cutting down on shopping!!! so am I gonna do this?? :/
I'm kinda hoping guitar's like piano. Know the basics and you can roughly play anything you want.. If not for the pop pieces lying around, I wouldn't have touched my piano anymore. Thank goodness for sightreading skills. Not amazing ones but good enough to play a piece through and modify it to make it simpler for noobs. Hmmhmmm :)

Yea, I guess that's me talking trash again cuz' I am suffering from insomnia. So much for a healthy lifestyle. Joker! I tried sleeping at like 11pm and finally got up at 2 am, having not slept a wink! Pekchek already la. If I had continued forcing myself to sleep, I'd go crazy. Seriously. *Voices in my head, man* -cough- I mean like, I have tons of thoughts swirling around in my mind. Gives me a nasty headache. And not very material thoughts. Try to grasp one of them and nothing specific comes to mind. Empty, vague thoughts? *depressing*

I have unlimited cable for like 2 weeks but I can't find anything to watch. I have no patience watching and following dramas. I've lost steam for Glee too; the new eps can wait. Never started on Gossip Girl or The Hills. Tried. But. Just. Couldn't. But I roughly know what they're about so I'm not pathetically out of the loop.

I realised posting the vid turned out to be an excuse for me to blog/vent. Yea well, I wouldn't have taken the time to log in to Blogger if not for it. And you were thinking I wrote an essay based on the video. Turning back to the vid, Ericka is very pretty and Krissy is the one with the voice. They remind me of M2M - pretty voices. Sorry if you think they've got nothing on Marion and Marit haha.
My favourite cover of Baby has to be that by Cathy Nguyen, Legaci and Traphik. It's even better than Justin B's original! SERIOUS. I like their interpretation .. not the rap part though. But yea, excellent cover! I am listening to it on replay and not JB's!

Anyway, something random (I'm in trashtalk mode, remember?) - I think Alicia Keys is very talented and all but I just can't bring myself to like her songs. Maybe some but very limited. I tried listening to her new album, well new as in couple of months or something, Element of Freedom (or something like that) and nope, still didn't do it for me. HAHA. I have to admit my music tastes are very radio-friendly. Define radio-friendly? I d'no. Think Baby, Knock You Down, Replay, Tik Tok.. stuff like that (:

I should attempt sleeping again.
Anyway, something random again before I log off.
What is confidence to you?
Right now, at this moment, Confidence is being able to go out barefaced.
I'm trying to figure out how a person can be confident but unable to face the world without her mask on. If you say vanity and confidence are two separate matters, I disagree. I feel vanity stems partly from the fact that you can't accept yourself. You want to look better and what you do in the name of vanity, makes you feel better about yourself but if there was a request for you to strip off that superficial layer and you simply can't, you're not confident about yourself.
Does that make sense? Never mind, I baffle myself too. (Because if you look better, you feel more confident about yourself right?)
This is probably one essay I'd fail. Comments: WHAT IS YOUR POINT?

I'm so freakin' bored I'm thinking of writing my brother's essay for him. Not for submission of course but just to see if I can still write. From this blog, it's evident that I CAN.
But it's been a long time since I wrote an essay for school of the argumentative/discursive kind. I've always chosen such essays even if I felt nothing for the topic because I hated narratives and descriptives. I don't know how people write essays when you're given a word like "Happiness".
I guess I'll ask for the questions tomorrow. But I admit I must be losing my touch since a topic like community service proved deceptively simple for me = not simple afterall.

Wow I just came up with a few paragraphs of pointless stuff. G'night!
