Last Night a DJ Saved My Life..

..If music be the food of love, Play on

Give me excess of it; that surfeiting,

The appetite may sicken, and so die..
Twelfth Night-William Shakespeare

Lately, i feel like iv fallen in love with music all over again..
Do you remember the first time you heard THAT song and it stuck in your head for days and you sat for those painfull 'butt-cheek numbing' hours recording it onto cassette after cassette, so you have one for the car and another for the crummy old boom box in your room.
I cant even remember THAT song, or even that far back..

I went through a bad patch, as most would call it..depression set in, i woke late, slept late, ate too much..disgusting cycle..and in all of this (i realize now) i was missing out on one of the most important things in my life..

And then i got a job..started out slow, me in a big quiet empty room with the slow hum of the AC, and the occasional babbling, from the fool in cubical in the far corner of the room.

The only thing that kept me sane, and which i soon discovered was my saving grace for not just the mundane endless work days, but my soul..

So i dedicate this post in SALUTE to the one thing that reminded me of the the last peice of the puzzle to my happiness..made me realize that i was born to love music, it runs through my veins..my heart beats with every beat of the drum..(too much-or not really enough?) hahah

Anyhoo..Last night a Dj saved my life..
but it wasnt really a Dj, more like an RJ on Fm89..my new obsession!

89 has reintroduced me to so many new and old tunes, that have brought the smile back on my face..not to mention the amount of talent there lies in that radio station..i never knew, and most dont realize..so id like to take a moment to say(or maybe spread awareness) that there is some serious talent there, that we should be proud of..from book reviews, to entertaining shows and not to mention news and facts!

my Favorite shows..coffee republic, 89 chapters and 100% Filmi
why? Because they play my kinda music and Mahvish has got to be my favorite Rj out of them all!
I would even go so far as to (boldly)say, she is me..but an older, MUCH MUCH wiser me! its amazing :)

I once read somwhere.."Finally, a good radio station sounds familiar while never failing to surprise. "
Yes they repeat alot of songs, till you cant take it anymore..Yes they tend to have too many ad breaks(but then how are they going to make money?)..and YES they provide us with entertainment all day, and Yes, if you dont like what you hear or get sick of it..you will always have the option to turn it off!

..Mushaboom* Sing, dance and Smile :)

500 days of Summer- my thoughts..

sooooo i just watched '500 days of summer' annndddd...
OMG it was awesome!!!
im a BIG softy when it comes to romantic movies/comedies
and this one hit a home run with me!

firstly let me say, the guy Jason something..(the little skinny one from third rock from the sun) OMG soo cute! and for the first time sweater-vest DO me!! wow! if i saw him singing kareoke like that in a bar id jump him.

secondly it was so 'Beautifully done'. kinda gave you little butterflies and made you smile (the shy silly sort of smile) and mind you, i was watching it all alone. and to smile the way i was(yes sounds stupid being alone and all) but it was very 'adorably done'.
id also like to add that the 'Pauses' were placed in all the RIGHT places..so kudos to the director!!


im sorry im trying but i CANNOT get over his cute little droopy sleepy eyes and shy smile, with just the right amount of little bit of stubble (i know i know i sound like a little 13 year old but im in love all over again- and hes not even my usual type which makes it even more exciting)

*music is GREAT too!

i suggest everyone should see it!
I LOVED IT!
and i can see myself watching it over and over and over and over again..

p.s i totally relate to Tom! TOTALLY! but i dont really blame summer for being the way she is..i think we all have a little bit of fear-the wall of distance and space- in us! but Tom...ohh sweet sweet Tom hanson!

anyays im rambling-dont want to spoil it-go watch it if you havnt!
:)
