Mattel Hot Wheels Monster Trucks Live

I have always wanted to watch Monster Trucks live and what a great opportunity when the show was in Paris. We arrived just in time 5 mins before the show began on time at 1130. The La Defense Arena wasn’t 100% full but it was clearly a family affair. In addition to the laser lights […]

Britney Spears – Toxic

I just finished streaming The Woman In Me by Britney Spears. Michelle Williams did a good job narrating the book as it made it very engaging. Looking back at the stories in the book, I can remember how mean the media was when Britney was at her lowest point. Without wanting to spoil the story […]

Neon Jungle – Trouble

Who doesn’t like girl bands? Well, I re-stumbled on this tune that was in my spotify playlist and thought it was good to resurface it especially since the Spice Girls got their own Royal Mail tribute stamps 30 years after their debut. Neon Jungle was a British girl group that burst onto the music scene […]

Sophie Ellis-Bextor – Murder On The Dancefloor

I remember listening to this track when I was in high school and I was convinced that the singer was an English Doll. Sophie Ellis-Bextor, a captivating British singer, songwriter, and model, graces […]

Let It Snow Let It Snow

Apparently it is a rare occassion in Paris as it is the second time in two weeks. Although it was a day later than forecasted, it is sure a change from the previous day of continous rain which we surprisingly still manage to cycle to school. Although the snow was heavier than previous week, it […]

Jimmy Ray – Goin To Vegas

Well, I hope to be able to be in Vegas the end of this year but let me take you back to the time when I was in the early stages of high school in Malaysia. I managed with a long lost friend, a weekly music chart of top hits similar to Rick Dees US […]

A Timeless Marvel: Exploring The Pantheon in Paris

Another First Sunday of the month, another free entry museum. This time it is to visit The Pantheon which is free during the low season. You don’t have to book your tickets upfront, just show up and join the queue if any. As usual, I recommend to come early. Paris, the city of lights, boasts […]

Howie Day – Collide

It’s finally Friday and I can’t believe this song is 20 years old now! Howie Day, an American singer-songwriter, gained widespread recognition with his heartfelt ballad “Collide.” Released in 2004 as part of his album “Stop All the World Now,” the song resonated with listeners through its emotive lyrics and Day’s soulful vocals. “Collide” beautifully […]
