I was just designing a poster for our zone's dunkin machine store and was listening to my itunes. So lifehouse started playing in the background while I was drawing out my stick figure. 'Blind' was the song. I repeated the song once it ended. Maybe it's because we're about 11 days away from the new year, or it's was some kind of magic (nostalgia,as they have called it) started kicking in, but I found myself thinking back on 2007 through that song. I get that sometimes. I listened to Fall Out Boy when I was in Korea a lot more cause it reminded me of the time I listened to them in Perth. And different songs mark different phrases of my life and things I've been through. So anyway, what's the significance of 'blind'? I remember approximately 11 months again, I was somewhat a wrecked up being. I would listen to this particular song on repeat mode,and tear through it. The story was pretty simple. I really liked someone, it wasn't reciprocated and he saw someone else. This time, it's rather nostalgic, cause I remember what I've been through. But no more of that bitter-sweet emotion or teary face. Just like how 'Grant Theft Autumn' summed up 2005 cause it brings to remembrance Perth, 'Blind' sums up my 2007. As I sat there reflecting as the song is playing, I'm pretty proud of myself. For not succumbing to roller-coaster emotions, and finally moving on. The lessons learnt through this can't be tagged and it only made me trust the Lord more.

The poster's done and I'm sitting down .
I find myself giving a slight smile to that all-familiar tune as it is on loop. Lifehouse sounds different 11 months later.
