Good day! How has your week been? I have mentioned that Coffee Time is my favorite part of my Morning Routine. And one of the reasons I love this part of my day is my own Coffee Playlist. The playlist is entitled with the Coffee and Tea emojis on Spotify. I just like it that way. Anyway, I thought of sharing the playlist and how I created it. Creating a Coffee Playlist This playlist did not actually start as a "Coffee Playlist." Initially, I wanted to make a playlist of two of my favorite French songs, La View en Rose and La Mer. I included Lanca Perfume and added a few other French, Italian, and Spanish which had a mellow but upbeat vibe. It was mostly jazz and bossa nova songs. It was originally titled "Of Roses and the Sea." https://open.spotify.com/track/3lAun9V0YdTlCSIEXPvfsY?si=xPbRRxXnQPWA4ue6RWqSeg https://open.spotify.com/track/2ZeHwwyO4hRMKYk5L1uke6?si=gv0YZyNaS262VNiDkWwy5Q https://open.spotify.com/track/3cijWAljXxxJDco4N2aLQl?si=mVA1xxz3To-l-RfHhSNEPQ I listened to this playlist often and kept on adding songs as suggested by Spotify. Eventually, I realized it actually gave me cafe vibes. It was the perfect playlist while having coffee or tea, any time of the day. So I sought to add more songs that were not just French, Italian, or Spanish. Adding some Asian…

Jar of Hearts
It's been several months and yet this song still comes to mind every now and then. The song is "Jar of Hearts" by Christina Perri. It talks about a former lover who goes around making girls fall in love with him only to break the girls' hearts. In the song, the guy is looking for the girl again but the girl won't have him back because she knows he'll only hurt her again. Yeah, yeah, yeah... I still love the guy. And though he does not want me back, I feel that this song speaks to me strongly right now. Not quite that bitter but I'm still a bit angry. So this is my song right now. Especially this line... "Who do you think you are? Runnin' 'round leaving scars Collecting your jar of hearts And tearing love apart" Sad, noh? Really sad. The song is very melancholic. And I've been listening to it a lot lately. Haaay... Hope to get over this phase soon.
The Last Day by Marilyn Scott
In my old blog, I posted the lyrics to one of the songs I really liked. That was in 2005 and I haven't really updated that blog in four years but the post still gets some comments because apparently a lot of people like the song and have been looking for a copy of it. The song is "The Last Day." Back then I thought it was by Hourglass, a little known band I had watched play the song on Myx. But I have been informed that the song is originally by Marilyn Scott. The song is a bit too sentimental and talks about living one's life to the fullest and shooting for one's dreams. Here is the song: And the lyrics... THE LAST DAY by Hourglass If today were the last of all days Would it change how you feel, who you are? Would you rise for a moment Above all your fears Become one with the moon and the stars? Would you like what you see looking down Did you give everything that you could Have you done everything that you wanted to do Is there still so much more that you hold Follow your dream to the…
Dreaming of You
It's one of my all-time favorite songs, and my cousin Tinky and I love singing this everytime we go videoke-ing. Selena's Dreaming of You Late at night when all the world is sleeping I'd stay up and think of you And I'd wish on a star That somewhere you are thinking of me too Cuz I'm dreaming of you tonight Till tomorrow, I'll be holding you tight And there's nowhere in the world I'd rather be Then here in my room, Dreaming about you and me Wonder if you even see me And I wonder if you know I'm there If you looked in my eyes Would you see what's inside? Would you even care? I just wanna hold you close But so far, all I have are dreams of you So, I wait for the day and the courage to say How much I love you(Yes, I do) I'll be dreaming of you tonight Till tomorrow, I'll be holding you tight And there's nowhere in the world I'd rather be Then here in my room, Dreaming about you and me Ahhh...I can't stop dreaming of you Ahhh...I can't stop dreamin Late at night when all the world is sleeping…
Brian McKnight's One Last Cry
This song is playing while I'm at a meeting at a local cafe. I'm not a fan of McKnight but I like this song. :) ONE LAST CRY Brian McKnight My shattered dreams and broken heart Are mending on the shelf I saw you holding hands, standing close to someone else Now I sit all alone wishing all my feeling was gone I gave my best to you, nothing for me to do But have one last cry Chorus: One last cry, before I leave it all behind I’ve gotta put you outta my mind this time Stop living a lie I guess I’m down to my last cry Cry...... I was here, you were there Guess we never could agree While the sun shines on you I need some love to rain on me Still I sit all alone, wishing all my feeling was gone Gotta get over you, nothing for me to do But have one last cry Chorus: One last cry, before I leave it all behind I’ve gotta put you outta my mind this time Stop living a lie I know I gotta be strong Cause round me life goes on and on and on And…
