** soundtrack of your life **

if you have to compile a cd containing soundtrack of your life, what songs will be in there? what songs remind you of which specific moment of your life? what songs that got you movin' n shakin' ? :) what songs inspire you?
i'm on the mercy of hi-speed internet here, so i can *download* a few songs that just make my heart flutters. I'm still compiling my collections, but i really wanna know what's yours ... anyone? :p

** stars & stripes **

I just got back to LA after being away for 2 years. Gosh, it feels like I've never left at all! This city is still my hometown.. :D with all the traffic jam, road constructions, shopping malls, people in hot pants and flip-flop in the middle of october... and I've never loved the sun as I loved it these days. But do you know where did I get inspired immediately? Target! Boy, do they have the nicest collections of paper goods! And I just droool with their Shabby Chic & Waverly curtains! I shopped like crazy in there, from getting a new towel to greeting cards! And today, I visited Soolip, one of my absolutely favorite store. I literally almost cried. I thought I will never see those cards in person. They sell great wrapping papers, letterpressed cards, tags, seal .. everything! And their Bungalow have cute shirts, nicely packaged bath goodies, bags and books. Last but not least, my trip today ends at Anthropologie.
They have been carrying so many wonderful stuff, but right now my favorite is their photo albums & frames.
Oh, I'm so inspired! Lucky are those who are still the citizens of the US... :)
