Best of 2008 - The Therapy

So those people always swear by 'best of ' lists - or whatever lists, for that matter. They say it's good for the soul, makes you focus on the good stuff and so the positive energy inside you would rise to a new high, and u'll forget about the present state of shit momentarily.

Ok prophets, let's try it.

(Well, considering that end-of-the-year's my fave period anyway, there is some sorta unfair positive bias inherent in this lil experiment already, don't you think? and you already know i'm gonna end this entry off with some sorta "omg this is so totally therapeutic" crap.)

Ok here goes:
(To round up my awesome 2008, i shall focus only on the good things that happen to me 0.543% of the time. Do those yeasayers some justice.)

Favorite guys (not in any particular order, i think. Such a chore to rank the good stuff, dont u think?):-
1. James Franco (and whoever resembles him)
2. Tommy the cat
3. Oscar Wilde/Jason Mraz/John Mayer/the whole My Chemical Romance gang
4. Orlando Bloom?Shayne Ward?
5. The penguins in "March of the Penguins"
6. A couple of french people
7. A particular mystery friend

Favorite songs this year
1. I' m Yours - Jason Mraz
2. Shit this is tough, uhh..entire of John Mayer's new album. Wait, make it all his albums
3. Gronlandic Edit - Of Montreal
4. Snails - The Format
5. (u'v perhaps come to realise that this section is totally redundant cos my taste in music changes every other day and my memory of each song i love lasts only as long as the track duration reflected on Winamp.)
6. Here without you - 3 doors down ... still. i don't think i can get over this song - ever!
7. Collide - Howie Day..this too.
8. Between the lines - Sara Bareilles
9. Geez, whoever suggested this list thing obviously didnt like many things!!!
10. Brink of disaster - Mae

12. So much love - the rocket summer
13. Qui je suis - Kyo (i've no idea why!i could go on forever with this one)

15. Okay this list doesn't end. Just browse thru the history of this blog and u can get a vague idea of my constantly shifting taste. So - next!
