169. rain on the roof and instant coffee
“Let us toast to animal pleasures, to escapism, to rain on the roof and instant coffee, to unemployment insurance and library cards, to absinthe and good-hearted landlords, to music and warm bodies and contraceptives… and to the “good life”, whatever it is and wherever it happens to be.” – Hunter S.

163. humanoids
THIS IS A VERY ALIEN/ET/SPACESHIP SONG. With a very outer-space kinda dance. Changmin’s deep voice at the beginning…omg hot. I need to choreo to this!

162. urban picnic
Introducing, the best things that happened to me in the University: Gardens by the Bay is really pretty! Just less so in the hot sun and erratic weather, thus we consumed the picnic goodies beside the ticketing booth like a boss. I need to go there again in the night with the lights up! What…
