"A Poem is Never Finished, Only Abandoned." - Bao...
Bao Phi said those wise words when he was doing a mentoring session with me at the APIA Summit Bay ‘09.
So last night, I was inspired to take a look at some of my old poetry; some pieces that I only performed once or twice. This wasn’t out of some random act of boredom. I was actually motivated by Kundan Chhabra, an Uncultivated Rabbit alumnus, like myself. He was at the Uncultivated...

The Neuroscience of Music (Frontal Cortex) →
psychotherapy:
Why does music make us feel? On the one hand, music is a purely abstract art form, devoid of language or explicit ideas. The stories it tells are all subtlety and subtext. And yet, even though music says little, it still manages to touch us deep, to tickle some universal nerves. When listening to our favorite songs, our body betrays all the symptoms of emotional arousal. The...

Can't Sleep
I can’t sleep… or I don’t want to sleep. I wish my body didn’t have to sleep because do you know how much time your body spends dreaming in a lifetime? I don’t know the exact numbers off the top of my head, but it’s A LOT. Check the special features for Inception. It says the stats in there. haha.
Anyways all the while, your body could be up making a difference...

Write one leaf about sled dogs.
forwordcollection:
On a leash, tamed,
These wolves are meant to roam,
Directions of their own choosing,
“Mush, mush!” yells the hooded figure,
Their eyes are blanketed in snow, leering into nothing,
The whips crackling into their fur,
Twilight is upon them,
On a leash, tamed,
They are wild with adventure.

Posture
So I know that people have told me in the past and have been telling me that I slouch a lot. I know this. But it wasn’t until last night after viewing the recording of my performance as part of forWord at the Paradise Perks Open Mic did I realize how bad my posture really is. It really freaked me out. I do not want to grow up with a hunchback i.e. scoliosis. From this day on, I am making a...

Is Music for Wooing, Mothering, Bonding—or Is It... →
psychotherapy:
When Charles Darwin listened to music, he asked himself, what is it for? Philosophers had pondered the mathematical beauty of music for thousands of years, but Darwin wondered about its connection to biology. Humans make music just as beavers build dams and peacocks show off their tail feathers, he reasoned, so music must have evolved. What drove its evolution was hard for him...

Happy New Year! 2011!
Okay this is pretty late, but better late than never. haha. I finally figured out what my new year resolution will be for 2011. It’s not specific, but it’s something I REALLY want to do this year since it’s muthafuckin’ two thousand and ELEVEN. My favorite number for those who don’t know.
My new year’s resolution for 2011 is:
To do what I want to do.
