Happy Talk

I haven't written a post in months but I'm back. I'm thinking of publishing some of my poems and
general rants but part of me thinks that stuff is in the past, so I will just talk about other stuff, like Music! But I have good news too. This year is all about staying mentally and physically fit and positive. Remaining on an even keel. etc. I am no longer riding through the choppy ocean of stormy weather that was the last couple of years. I've braved the worst and come out on top, with only a few battle scars, but they are being healed as I write. Writing always makes me feel better.

I'm now 27 and it's 2012 and I'm still alive! I moved house in November; and I am so happy to say that I now live somewhere that is completely habitable with a lovely housemate and everything I could ever need or want.

I want to introduce you to a great Musical. It's called South Pacific (Rodgers & Hammerstein) and I've been aware of it for years. I have recently started getting flashbacks about my childhood, and things I used to like and do. I used to listen to this soundtrack when I was very small, probably around nine or ten. My mum's room was like heaven; she had a record player and quite a good collection, including West Side Story and Abba. And South Pacific. So I used to listen and sing a long. I knew all the words to Abba's songs when I happened to see a tribute act one summer.

Anyway listen to this song. Whether musicals are your thing or not- nobody can not like this...

I'm looking into finding the original South Pacific on DVD. Until then I think I'm long overdue a watch of Singin' In The Rain...

This is such a good feel good track. It always makes me feel better.
