Imeem.com, my new haven

I can’t explain it, but I’m having a lot of ‘dull’ moments at work. No, don’t think I don’t love the job. I do! I even had my desktop wallpaper designed with an ‘I love my work’ cup at the bottom right of the screen. I like the co-workers. We all get along pretty well.

I think it’s those silent moments when everybody is too engrossed in their work that sometimes drives anyone crazy. In my case, too much silence makes me sleepy, and when I’m sleepy I cannot think, and that is not good at work. 0_0

I keep myself awake with loud mp3 music from my local hard-drive but the repetitive nature of listening to the same music (I don’t have much saved) can also make me sleepy.

In the course of lazily surfing the net, I stumbled upon Imeem.com. I once visited the site but I never gave each much thought until recently when finding anything new to form a new kind of distraction is a welcome break to the ho-hum afternoon at work. And I searched playlist after playlist of hits from my high-school and college days to bring back nostalgic moments and revive my lost energy to continue my work again. ^^ Ha! Old music pretty much works to uplift any mood.

Not to mention, I found a playlist of complete Disney Love songs. I got a bit giggly over that, remembering romantic moments among Disney characters. I even researched on ‘Top annoying songs’ and ended up playing Mambo No.5 . Livin’ La Vida Loca, Lambada, Macarena, Vengaboys, etc. over and over again in the course of the afternoon, on loud speaker, that everyone else in the office were laughing over my choice of music but were singling along appreciatively. I guess they were grateful too for the temporary disruption of silence. ^^

Ahhhh… music. Where will we be without it?
