Mas Que Nada

A few years ago, i came across this Nike advertisement on TV, and kinda fall in love with the music straight away. Somehow, it felt that i have heard the melody from somewhere...


After listening to it more carefully, I realised the singer of the song is Black Eyed Peas (which happens to be one of my fave groups at that time).... Apparently they gave a new outlook to this old song from Sergio Mendez... I also dont know who he was until i heard this song actually. This song just makes me wanna groove and i just cant get it out of my head... when i listen to it, i can imagine a cheerful and relax atmosphere...

Wondering what Mas Que Nada Means...
So i checked it out on Wiki... and this is what i got:
In Brazilian Portuguese slang, it means "come on" or "no way". In Latin-American Spanish más que nada literally means "more than anything".

Apparently wiki doesnt help much... =( haha I still dun really get what it means....
but the melody of the song explains a lot... to me, it means "doesnt matter what problem you have at hand, you can forget about it when you listen to the samba"
haha sorry, kinda cheesy...=P

Actually i stopped listening to that song after some time. But recently, my craze for Ballroom dancing has brought me back to it. I was "again" searching for Ballroom dance videos on Youtube. When i was looking for some samba dances, i found these great dances on the videos. The first one is by some professional dancers. As you can see, the technique is super solid! but i cant help but notice that the fit of the girl's dress is horrible. Oh man!



The second one is by a group of people. Technique wise, they are not as good as the first one, but their choreography is really charming. really enjoy watching it



Ohhh... ballroom dance really rocks! it really gives a lot of positive energy...

anyway, other than ballroom dance, i also managed to find something else. It is a Japanese group singing Mas Que Nada, but with bossanova feel to it



The piano accompanyment here is really good but i'm not a big fan of the vocal... somehow the pronouciation of the vocalist doesnt support the feel of the song.... something is lacking there. just not sure what it is... may be authenticity... haha

haha... enough of overdosing this blog with too much of Mas Que Nada-ing...
anyway, thanks to Sergio Mendez who created that beautiful song, now i have something to groove to... yeah!

post about me-myself-and i

It's 2 am now...
i refused to sleep even tho i know i need rest and my beauty sleep...
and i got tonnes of things better to do than writting this blog...

i just happen to dig thru some old archives in this blog... those that wrote in yr 1 or so... i just feel that so many things have changed...
how friendship has changed. how friends come n go..
i dunno wad's wrong, but somehow, in Uni, the "turnover rate" of friends is so high...is it just me, and how i handle friendship?

and i'm kinda used to being independent...

i remember last time... last last time... i used to feel really awkward if i have to go out shopping alone or eating in the canteen alone...
but now, all these are not a big deal, it's everyday reality, or at least that's how i feel. even "worse", i kinda enjoy it sometimes... like for example, i really love to shop alone.... i can spend however much time to ensure that the thing that i want to buy is really what i want and it's really worth buying...i will feel really uncomfortable knowing that a friend is waiting for you outside the fitting room, waiting impatiently.. you know, that kind of feeling...
but these are just my feelings, i know it may not be true... coz some friends can be very patient as well..

oh well, i happened to see some photos from the KL trip during year 1 when the whole grp of us went together...
i see the "irreplaceable" expression in our faces... some kind of joy that is so precious....we would have our own troubles and ups and downs at that time, but somehow, those faces couldnt lie that we were all having so much fun...

not that i'm not happy right now.... i think i'm kind of enjoying this sem as well, but i kinda miss what it used to be like...
maybe this is the consequence of growing older...
hmpph.. no rheumatism, just some sore here and there... lol

Comments:
-This is scarily true.. all the good sides and bad sides of mine are exposed... "oh vulnarable vulnarable..."
- I don't really agree with those highlighted in blue.... either I really dont have those qualities or I just cant see it in myself...
- The last sentence about being a devoted mother and wife... hm... never even think that far yet....=P
- For the rest, believe it or not... they really tell a story about myself... if you know me well enough, you'll agree....
