smooth as butter
12:10 PM these days, my musical diet has consisted mostly of the energetic beats of my favourite trance-meister, Tiesto, or the R&B rhythms of Step Up 2 to keep me awake while studying... but sometimes its nice to relax a little to some loungey jazz, especially if you're having butterflies in your stomach so bad that it makes you want to throw up your breakfast. Exactly how I felt yesterday morning before my exam. And by chance the night before, I discovered Olivia Ong, a local jazz performer who moved to Japan at a young age and developed her career there. So in actual fact she's not much of a Singaporean in substance, but no matter, I'm always on the look out for jazz voices like hers. Soothing without having to try hard. And with an accent and style you can still distinguish as being rather Singaporean (think Corrine May without such a strong accent). Nice. The last jazz singer I was hooked onto was Lisa Ekdahl, back in the JC days! And its nice to find new songs to add to the jazz collection, except I can't seem to download Olivia Ong's songs! :X Thankfully someone uploaded them on imeem (love this website), allowing me to have my steady diet of her songs. I've added them to the blog too, look to the right under 'music junkie' :) Some of my favourites - Fade Away and Wave. kays, off to work again, tataas! 0 comments |
ely belly Welcome to the drunk mootoo tiger's blog. This is the blog of a nonsensical 22 year-old. All posts are true accounts of misadventures in my life. misadventurer
I'm a shopaholic, a chocoholic, an alcoholic, a clubbaholic, an eataholic, a music junkie, a traveler.
I love crying in the movies, love cookies and popcorn, love lazing at home and love making people laugh.
I'm addicted to Johnson's Baby lotion, to my mom's cooking and to sinful desserts.
I cannot multi-task, I cannot drive, and I'm afraid of heights but I enjoy rollercoasters.
I like to be around people with whom I don't have to care if they think I'm crazy drinking bak kut teh from a straw.
I've never taken the reverse bungee, never been to the US, and never dyed my hair pink.
And I want to go on an misadventure once in my life.
