Tonight, Swedish House Mafia will be having their One Last Tour concert at the Singapore Indoor Stadium. Just as the name stated, this will be their last tour because they are disbanding. :(
I'm not sure how many people in Singapore know about them but they certainly produced awesome music. One of them is the recently "Don't you worry, child" that youtube star Sam Tsui made a cover on.
Well, wish I could go for their concert but the tickets were too expensive. :( Understandable.
For some great music from Swedish House Mafia, check out this site on youtube: Swedish House Mafia TV

For we only live once
One Direction's Live While We're Young
Well, I'm not a fan of One Direction; in fact, I thought they were catered more to teenagers rather than a 23 years old person like me. I accidentally heard this song playing on TV a while ago and I was so curious who sang it because it was so catchy that it made me wanna sing along and stand up and dance. So I looked it up and was surprised it was by One Direction. Still not a fan, but shall open myself up to their music and hear other songs by them when I have the time.
The lyrics in Live While We're Young really hits me. I particularly find this part inspiring and motivating:
Let's go crazy crazy crazy till we see the sun
I know we only met but let's pretend it's love
And never never never stop for anyone
Tonight let's get some,
And live while we're young.
Words filled with energy, enthusiasm and individualism, whereby we do not need to live or cater to anyone but ourselves.
Life's so too, isn't it? We move at our own pace, at our own time. We compete, but ultimately, it's pointless, isn't it? You may be jealous that she's getting an A, but ask yourself, are you capable of getting an A in the first place? You may be happy because you got 51/100 while he has only gotten 49. But ask yourself again, is your grade good? Is it only good when you win someone? Everyone is an individual, there's seriously no need to compete, no need to ask for another person's grade to assure yourself or worsen your mood.
Sometimes I just want to pack up my bags and go; go where ever, not only because I'm young, but also because I only live once. I found free universities in certain parts of Europe and it just makes me think, perhaps I can just pack up and go. But no, while tuition is free, I have to think about living expenses, which are crazily high in comparison to Singapore. I don't want to pack up my bags and go as a student (at least not for now; till I'm financially independent), but as an employed worker. So, I really hope I could be offered the internship positions in Germany. If not, I would work here for a few years and perhaps pursue my studies there.
I trust that in time to come, everything will unfold beautifully in front of me, like a peacock showcasing its feathers or a Phoenix living much stronger after the fire. And everything that's happening are just contributing to that beautiful future. With destructions come constructions.
