Day 3- Songs for the Desert Island Trip!

I hate doing song playlists! Because a lot of my songs are instrumental kinds, and they're not like funky funky ones. So I really don't know what to choose. :/

1. I Feel Good by James Brown
Yeap. The one that was constantly played on ntv7 :P I mean. A deserted island. Uninhabited by anyone. I need to constantly uplift myself and remind myself that I FEEL GOOD YO!

2. Jar Of Hearts by Christina Perri
Emo song. Just because it suits the whole desert island scene. Perfect for an MV!

3. Pirates of the Carribean soundtrack
Just because I might want to do a bit of role-playing with my own self. Then I have some theme song to accompany me when I'm pretending that I'm some swashbuckling pirate on an island.
ARRRR!

4. A Thousand Miles by Vanessa Carlton
To remind me of what I'm missing back home in the city. BTW. I'm a city girl. I don't like going to Langkawi and whatnot with nothing to do, except being surrounded in awe of nature =.= NYC YO!

5. Blessed Be Your Name/ Trading My Sorrows/ Still
Self explanatory! :D

On a random note. my favourite worship song of all time is The Heart of Worship. It really resonates within me. Maybe cos I identified with Matt Redman about worship and all.
Boy did I learn my lesson ever since. (:

On another random note...

So, my heart really bleeds. It bleeds for the Myanmarese guy who sells spicy chicken thigh at Monash.

I always buying spicy chicken thigh (yes, again!) from this guy, and he always gives me a really nice smile. So I chatted with him yesterday and I found out that he goes to this Myanmarese church somewhere in Sunway, and today I found out that sometimes he goes to pray in FGA. Woah so far.

But that's besides the point.

He's always so cheerful lor, besides the fact that he's been away from Myanmar for 5 years, doing a menial job (which may not be the only one), leaving his family back home in Myanmar and all. Yet he seems to take every day with this stride that comes with such joy that radiates from him. Really lah. Every time I buy something from him, my heart aches. It aches for all the other Myanmarese refugees and all who come to Malaysia and work so hard, learn to adapt so quickly, and yet, are still content with what they have.

<3- heartbreak. 

So yeah. I really like this Myanmarese guy. I would love to be able to sit down, buy him a drink and just listen to his stories, or whatever he wants to tell me. Or just treat him to a nice lunch or something. And introduce him to many of my other awesome friends.

And he blessed me with extra bits of chicken! Man. I feel like tearing up. :'(
That aside. I was really blessed, even by talking to him. The little random blessings in life. (:

p/s: To all Monash-ians who buy snacks from the aunty, try talking to him sometimes. I think it might really make his day, and it will really teach us a lesson, and bless both parties in some way or another (:
