transportée dans le temps...

I don't know how many times I listened to Rod Stewart's "I Was Only Joking" song today. Rod Stewart is one of my all-time favorite artists. I used to have a collection of his albums back home, errr... I just don't know where they are now. Oh, it's been ages! I was still in high school when I started to save from my pocketmoney and started buying his albums. I was about 14 years old then. Now I'm forty and I've been feeling nostalgic these past few days and one thing that just came to mind was to télécharger this song. The day I downloaded this and listened to it for the first time after several years of almost forgetting its existence, was when I was feeling so down, that was the time when I sent a courriel à mon ami telling him I was being sentimental. Truth was I was feeling blue and needed someone to talk to, a shoulder to cry on.

Not that I'm feeling down or unhappy at the moment. I don't know, I suddenly have a longing for familiar things and persons. I think I'm missing things I really don't know what. Now as I type this entry, I look for a Philippine radio station that still plays songs I used to love à l'époque. Songs that will bring back memories. But unfortunately, can't find one. Well I might just help myself with itunes music store.

Ah, wait... apparently I got it! The station's iFM 93.9. Not bad... It's now playing Tracy Chapman's "Baby Can I hold You". j'adore cette chanson... I guess I found what I've been looking for. Thanks to the net... As though am suddenly transported back in time, now I'm feeling how it felt ... a long time ago ... when I used to spend my Saturday nights with friends -- pub/disco hopping (oh I still remember the receptionist complaining about how we were dressed, "there's a dress code, sorry", she used to say, haha! I wonder what she does for a living now...), our mugs and mugs of coffee at dunkin' donuts, our favorite "weng-weng" at tia maria's ... aah, I feel suddenly connected to the past and you bet, that feels good...
