Coloring Twenty Ten

I should have post this in early January but well, I guess everyone will be posting similar stuff, so I hesitated in the defense of staying different with others. =p. To start off, I guess some of you still pondering why I used Rainbows And Wishes as my Posterous account. Ooh, here's a funny story, one of my Sydney friends commented on my page saying this "Rub, cool post, keep writing, although I don't see the connection ... Rainbow and Sandwiches?!" . DANG! So I'd like to make one thing clear, its RAINBOWS AND WISHES. And the mystery behind is as simple as the beautiful colors that compose rainbow pretty much resembles the colors of my life. There's the bright shiny ones, there will also be the dark misty ones, but together it create one of the most magical landscape.

So in that spirit, I'm coloring my another great year ahead with these new stuff. I might add some along the way, but here's what I've been cracking with for the whole January and will keep doing so.

ONE
Its a book with exactly 365 pages. I named it Minimal Details. I believe its the small details in life that attracts happiness and its our human tendency to forget it. So I've been writing the tiny bits of bliss in my life, my statement of gratefulness, journal entries, artworks, and things that excites me like photos and stuff. Also I'm learning to make sort of scrapbook-artsy thingy, not very satisfied with 'em so far, but I'll get better. Hope somebody would share some of the tricks.

Oh, and also by the end of this year, on Christmas I'm gonna share this book with some of my dearest. Enjoy the rainbow with me and see if you made into one of the entries. =)

 

TWO
As a loyal Twittizen, I've been trickling with ideas as how to improve and make a better use of my tweets. So here what I resolve with:

- #Foodporn : this will be a series of food and drinks nudity displayed with no censorship for your visual pleasure. Also with the small hints of the taste. I'm not into numbering / scoring foods. That's subjective, I mean 7 for me could be 4 to others. So I prefer to speak out what my tongue tasted. Keep in touch with this and before you know it, the next time you think about porn, all you'll get is images of prime ribs, salmon skin roll, chicken kang pun ki, and seaweed salad.

- #Winegasm : pretty much similar, but as the name represent, specially dedicated for wine. Wine is an even more intricate being, its even harder to rate, and I'm way behind from being a wine-taster. So I'm just gonna share who I enjoyed it with. For me there's no bad wine, there's only good, very good, or awesome!

- #1Word : a very simple tweet. One new english vocabulary a day, and at the end of the year I would've learned 365 new words, and maybe inspire some to use them as well.

If you're up for it, you can follow me here @captainruby. That is all for now. I've got some more colors to display here, that's gonna be part two, keeping the post short. Just gotta wait for it.

Smile on, Shine on Peeps!

Art of Love [Current Favorite Playlist]

I can't find any better version of the video in You Tube than this one. Please mind the lousy audio. This is my current favorite, and personally I think every couples early in their relationship should listen to this, also the singles, so you can learn that you need to put effort into love, its not all sparkly and flashy. Put the terms right before everything is way past 'too late'. Written by the awesome Guy Sebastian himself, I think the lyrics has a lot of truth, positivity, and honesty in it (and what could be best for any relationship than honesty?). Seriously, I don't usually blog songs or even just the lyrics. This time, I have to. And if you're reading this on your mobile, youtube the video once you're online in your laptop. Smile on, Shine on. Rubs.

I’m saying sorry in advance cos this won’t always go to plan
Though we don’t mean to take our love for granted
It's in our nature to forget what matters
How when the going is getting tough
And we’re all about giving up
Things that we never thought we’d gonna say, gonna say them
Things that we never thought we’d play, gonna play them
It ain’t perfect, but it’s worth it
And it’s always getting better
It’s gonna take some time to get it right

Cause I’m still learning the art of love
I’m still trying to not mess up
So whenever I stumble let me know
You need to spell it out
You need to spell it out
You need to spell it out
You need to spell it out for me
Cause I’m still trying to learn the art of love

If I forget to get the door
Remind you that you’re beautiful
I know my detail requires more attention
If I ever hurt you it’s not my intention
Cause we’re gonna make our mistakes
Find out how much your heart can take
But I know that you got my back
And baby I got yours

While in Between

Wish it all began before it start
Hear Him out – dear Heart
Seasons come in time and seasons went
Life’s magical taste is heaven sent

While in between
Let’s not miss the sunshine
Let’s catch a glimpse of life
Let’s roll out the red carpet ride

Let’s curve the walk with smile
Let’s sing a happy lullaby

Let’s breathe the air of bliss
There’s no time like this

Take the rise take the fall and everything in between
Heads up high for the lows
Take the lows braise it up
Take the ups fill the tank
Take the tank and burst it out, loud!

Be happy, be happy, be silly, be as happy as you can be
Be dreamy, beautiful and wonderful, be as lively as you always be

Seasons come, seasons went
Life’s magical taste is heaven sent

This will all make perfect sense. It can only get better. =D
Dedicated to you-know-who. (ehm, not that imaginary guy created by JK Rowling). Let’s just say dedicated to a friend who I've met, but I don't know yet. Haha.
