& of course, paris.
no matter where i go or what i do
i somehow always get drawn back to this beautiful french city.
not just the history, not just the art, not just the food, not just the fashion...
(all of which i absolutely love, without a doubt!)
but just the vibe of the city,
so chic and so effortless... so sophisticated.
ever since i discovered the movie Amelie, i've unconsciously lived my life
attempting to emulate a parisian girl.
i know, how original.
i hate that every other girl is just as obsessed with this city
but i can't help it.
i love what i love.

it comforts me, somehow.
when i am upset, when i need to escape, when i want something to uplift me,
i inevitably turn on my french tracks.
i realized i had stopped doing this for the past year now...
and it was only just last week that i threw on l'amoureuse 
and non, je ne regrette rein
and moi je joue
and la vie en rose
and comptine d'un autre ete... 


i think i might just love the way the titles sound just as much as the songs hehe :)

someday i shall return, i hope.
