26th.

I have always loved Peter Pan (and I guess I always will) because just like him, I never want to grow up. And honestly, I kind of freaked out when I turned 25 last year. I knoooooow, so childish right? Let's just say I had a bit of a quarter-life crisis then. But this year, I feel (in)different. Signs of aging?? Haha I like to think of it as seeing things in perspective. Why sulk over how old you are when you can be grateful for another year to celebrate life? After all, that's what celebrating birthdays are for! And if you were born on a holiday like me, you'd look forward to celebrating it every year as the entire nation celebrates with you.

Yeah, I turned 26 today and it feels great to be alive. I have nothing but thanksgiving for another wonderful year so thank You, Lord, for 26 awesome years and for being with me through it all. With that, I leave you with 3 "Alive" songs I coincidentally discovered right before my birthday. Enjoy!

Last May 25th, I saw Yellowcard for the first time and I've had this song stuck in my head for days. Here's Yellowcard with Here I Am Alive feat. Tay Jardine of WATIC.


"They say you don't grow up, you just grow old. It's safe to say I haven't done both."

Next up: Am I Alive by TEAM. I discovered TEAM two weeks ago after bands I like started tweeting about them. I have a rough idea who the members are but as of now, they remain a mystery. I'm glad I listened to their first single though because it's so good. LSS guaranteed!


"Am I alive or just breathing?"

Lastly, here's Bo Bruce with Alive. It's MV was recently released and I just had to get Before I Sleep. So much emotion in her voice!


"What are we waiting for? We're alive."

So there, I hope you enjoyed listening to the soundtrack of my life. Chos! Happy independence day everyone! Enjoy the holiday~!
