killers and stars

the following is what i typed on my friendster blog which i intended to type in and expand upon here:

blogger is all screwy tonight...can't even log in. but my fingers are itching to write, so i guess there's no choice but to use this. oww...my right eye stings from the bright lights and screen, but my spirit sure doesn't wanna sleep.

i think the melody for the killers' "on top" is pretty good...especially the chorus. though the topic mentioned in the lyrics are something i wouldn't agree with..in terms of relevance i think "smile like you mean it" comes the closest. it was just by chance that the person who borrowed their Hot Fuss album from the library returned it like 4 minutes before i checked its status again.

and it's so tak kena...they have the killers in the library but not the bravery. i mean, those two go hand in hand! but i must admit, there is a subtle difference between the two, and imo, i think the killers' music is better.

the sky looked fantastic tonight. thin veil of clouds, conveniently parting where orion is, with the moon in a halo of its own, this bright lunar rainbow. no shooting stars this time, but it was satisfactory visual pleasure just the same. the night sky never fails to amaze me and strike me dead speechless in awesome wonder of His creation. that the same entity who created me created stuff as mysterious, magnificent and as big as the stars is a comforting thought indeed.

wish i could look at the stars everyday, or live in a glass house with a transparent rooftop. i think it does me good therapy. i just can't describe it but my mind just goes totally blank when i look at the stars, or a brilliant display of sunset. try as i might, i can't seem to focus on anything other than the magnificent sight in front of me. and that can actually be a good thing sometimes.
