outcast

do you ever have the feeling that, you don't belong somewhere or to something, but there's nothing you can do about it just yet?



to have more excuses on.. "can't just do anything about it, yet" matter... it's those still bondages that you create when spending time with something or someone for a period of time. for example, i wanted to get out of boston when i graduated from college. but then the stupid bondages i created while in college became the main reason that i stayed... hoping that i would find a job at the time, although deep in my heart i know i won't stay in that city and began work. (is that weird to talk about it now?)

anyway, so the tale goes on... at least I spent 4 and a half year in Boston to get really tired of it... whereas here in Taiwan, where I have spent not even 2 years since my return... is getting on my nerve every single second of everyday. sad. y can't y be satisfied with what they have got at the moment and always seeks for more? greedy. indeed.

again, i know there are many good qualities on this island. but i guess i am not "good enough" for it. my heart will always lean towards the city of freedom and possibilities. a recent re-mix song ("Empire State of Mind") by Jay-Z and Alicia keys, chant about the city that many loved and loves. The part where Alicia sings ....

In New York,
Concrete jungle where dreams are made of,
Theres nothing you can’t do,
Now you’re in New York,
these streets will make you feel brand new,
Big lights will inspire you,
lets hear it for New York, New York, New York
ain't that totally true? well at least in my opinion, it is.

TRC's first PV comes out, ready for viewing on their official site! :)

When I was reading your post I was listening to a "classical" version of Empire State of Mind http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5Bntn7TwwJA

I hear you though. I feel "stuck" in a sense but in a different way I suppose. Cheer up FU! Things will get better :)
