mixtape after midnight

admin — Tue, 31 Jan 2012 10:23:18 +0000

I’m in the habit of listening to music in the early morning hours.

Currently listening to:

1. “Novacane” – Frank Ocean

2. “We All Try” – Frank Ocean

3. “Somebody That I Used to Know” – Gotye

4. 算了吧 – A-Lin

5. 青花瓷 - 周杰倫

6. 學不會 - 林俊傑

I’ve been immersing myself into more music from Taiwan as I’m going to visit my family there in a week. It’s been ages. I guess one of the ways I’m trying to improve my language skills is by listening to more music in Chinese. Tonight’s list is pretty random but I guess it’s always like that.

Help SAVE Janet’s life!

Saw this campaign floating around on the web and it really hit home. As a bone marrow donor myself, I want to urge each and everyone of you to sign up to the registry. You just might be able to save someone’s life. Janet Liang (pictured above) was diagnosed with acute lymphoblastic leukemia in 2009 and now doctors say she has 2 months to live. Please sign up on the registry. You could potentially save Janet’s life or someone else who needs bone marrow. Register online: here.

In 2006 I had the chance to donate my bone marrow to an 8 year old girl named Ruby from Singapore. Almost 6 years later and healthy, she’ll be 15 years old this year. So please, I cannot stress it enough how important signing up on the registry is. Life is so precious and I never realized it until I had my bone marrow experience. Thanks for reading and feel free to share the facebook page. Her family and friends are trying to spread the word. Let’s find Janet a donor!
