dangers of credit cards

sometimes being overseas too long, you get kinda lonely.

so you buy stuff from amazon.com, and eagerly wait for its arrival, like mail from a long distance lover.

its not the same, really.
you know its coming.
anytime now.
but when the day arrives, it finally fills your mailbox, it still takes you by surprise and fills you with joy.

a lottery ticket, which you know youre going to win.
doesnt lose its appeal quite as easily as youd think.

In some reseach for this song, i was scanning through loads of songs in my itunes to see if i missed anything out. even googled "all time greatest love songs" and the works. discovered loads of good songs in the process actually.

and there were some really good songs in those lists. but they just never evoked the same gut feeling like these did. I guess its really particular to the time in your life when you hear them. 

musical tastes. cant really get any more personal, can you.

lessons from meghna and london

shave everyday
keep your eyes wide open
keep a smile on your face
london is an international city. its not an english city. heres your chace to take the whole world in.

your a nice guy. if girls like nice guys, theyre gonna like you. simple as that.
some girls have agendas. they know what they want. and if what they want is you, thats cool too.

eat well. stay healthy, lad. cant compromise that.

living in moderation. lunch time beers are great.
