STPM

If there is only one good thing to have come out of 8 hour study sessions, then it is this:

iTunes

My library is increasing at a rate of about 5 albums per week, and that's only because I'm running through most of them at about that pace. It's the only thing that's keeping me sane. My aunt, to me, this afternoon: "Are you dreaming or are you thinking?" she asks, and I pretend not to hear her. The windows are thrown open in front of me and it's a beautiful day out, but I'm shut behind a table, chin on hand, staring at the sky.

And if my parents are crying /then I'll dig a tunnel / from my window to yours

And escape.

Studystack

Been studying 4-5 hours a day, which is torture if it wasn't for a steady stream of good music. The following are a few albums I've been listening to on near constant loop for the past few days. Click on any one of them to listen to download one song from that album ... not the best, but the most listener-friendly.

Note: I'm an alt junkie, so all of the above music are from the alternative genre. Metro Station is the only band you'll hear on Malaysian radio - they're new, relatively unknown, and the lead singer is Miley Cyrus's older brother Trace. Paradoxically, he actually makes decent music.
