That time of the year has rolled around again.

Not much NUMBER GIRL on my charts this year. No NG song on my top tracks! Gasp! That's a first. Lol. For half of the year I found myself not spending time on long commutes or chilling in my 18C-room. And I finally got the chance to play all those CDs that I bought the last couple of years.

This is also the year that I obsessively listened to several albums and certain songs until I got sick of them. But I swear I didn't listen to "Like…

This is a list of songs on a (mostly) 90's alternative playlist that I have been trying to build for a while now. Work in progress. I intend to include only tracks which I enjoyed listening to and conjures nostalgia from a decade ago, most of which are long-forgotten songs that I heard on the radio, so a lot of the music from the 90's that I am only discovering now won't be included here. Suggestions are welcome!

Better Than Ezra - Good
Blind Melon - Galaxie
Blur - Song 2
Catherine Wheel - Delicious
Dinosaur Jr. - Feel the…

It's that time of the year again.

emolition man

do you feel lonely
don't wanna hurry i can help if you only
let me feel you if you want hot tell me
'cause i get caught up in a life i live heaven see me
i've never thought i got the time when i would calm down
do you see me, i've been known the clown and get around
that's my name, see yo sleepin' deep you lookin' good
yes it's true, got a feel like a sex incense
you killing me with your evil eyes…

For the past couple of weeks I had been trying to build a 90's alternative playlist on my iTunes and had been thinking of songs that I would include in it. Somewhere along the way, mainly due to poor reception of themed web radios because of my internets, I had gone into thinking about songs that I would request on a Remote Control Weekend when I get back home for the holidays.

That was why it became such a shock to learn that NU 107 is closing shop on November 7.

I started listening to NU 107 when the then-Pinoy…

It's the New Year, so I'm gonna copy pasta my charts for the past 12 months:

Of course, Number Girl is still on top of my artist list. Can't really get sick of their music. Another band that I really liked this year was Cowpers (more defunct Japanese groups, lol). I really dig their album Yurashi Tsuzukeru. It's a masterpiece.

Some old favorites are also in my top tracks this year, including NG's "Nichijou ni ikiru shoujo" and "Trampoline Girl". And I really can't help but listen repeatedly to catchy tracks like "Lovi" from the Quruli/Rip…

Happy re-birthday.

Wonder how this day will turn out. Because so far, it's been awesome. Woke up to find a new Nodame chapter out. It was unexpected because I thought the mangaka, Tomoko Ninomiya, was on maternity leave. Anyway, read chapter 126. And I'd be spending the rest of my days agonizing over it. Lol, I kid.

Well, yesterday was kind of heavy. And even if I still recall it, listening to the pillows exclusively again after a long time makes me feel a little better. It's their 19th. Another morning.

So here I was, closing down some programs running on my PC, and deciding to check my Last.fm profile before finally going to bed. New layout, huh. This entry's title was my literal reaction. This feels so much like Facebook, meh. I think I like the old layout better. Less clutter, more organized. But at least I can finally see my loved tracks, haha (I end up "loving" a song more than once because I have difficulty remembering whether I had done that before or not). Anyway, not much time to spend exploring this, so I'm off.
