reblogged this on tumblr...

was just talking to charlene bout how songs aptly surface when ya place them on shuffle mode...well my hp came up with the following in this order earlier today:

1) Dance with my father - Luther Vandross
2) Always Remember - Train
3) All I want For Christmas Is You - Lady Antebellum
4) Talking To The Moon - Bruno Mars
5) Officially Missing You - Tamia
6) I'll Stand By You - The Pretenders

Theme songs for that still picture..the words hit more than u'll ever know..

Sitting here using my laptop trying to mug with my music on..u used to walk in through that exact door and ask me to stop whatever i was doing and go have dinner..the image is so vivid that it seems so real..its freaky, but at the same time how i wish it's real..

every year during x'mas you'd play all the x'mas albums through your precious hi-fi system which would fill the house with the feeling of x'mas..then u'd walk around the house doing "i don't know what"..lol..i rmb when we were younger we would bug you to drive us down orchard road to see the christmas decorations after we were done with dinner..years on, you were the one asking us whether we wanted to look at the christmas lightings after dinner..we said it was lame and we would rather stay at home and watch tv or go out with our frens while you and ma stayed home..i always found it uncool to be spending x'mas at home while my frens were out getting intoxicated..

only now do i realize that a simple glass of ice cream soda and "hands" brand peanuts, infront of the tv, watching one after another of them Prince Trust or Elton John Concerts and wailing along with the songs we knew too well, is all i wish for this x'mas...


all i want for x'mas is you..too bad santa's gonna disappoint..
