        <p>The titles to my blog entry is just getting worse and worse by the day;
luckily I still have my creative spleen somewhere, I just forgot where
I left it. Probably on the last page of my short story I&#39;m currently
working on. This weekend if I&#39;m not mistaken WWF Malaysia will be
having something like a field day of some sort. Sounds interesting -
hopefully I&#39;ll be able tag along. I&#39;m working very hard right now
because I&#39;m saving up for a trip to Sabah. Haven&#39;t planned it out
carefully yet but I guess it will be somewhere around early next
year(?). Going with a friend - we&#39;ll be hopping busses and boats,
traveling around Sabah for one solid week with only rm500 (inclusive of
flight ticket) and a backpack to ourselves. Our accomodation will be
mosques and friends of friends&#39; houses. I&#39;m excited; although this is
nothing like a travel to, say, Spain, but I just love the idea of
traveling to some unfamiliar place (alone or with one or two friend)
with little money in the pocket - survivor style.<br />
Hmm, talking about Spain reminds me of Josh Rouse. The guy has moved
away from US and now lives in Valencia in Spain. He will be releasing a
new album called <em>Country Mouse, City House. </em>He&#39;s currently streaming songs from the new album at his website (www.joshrouse.com). Check it out, I think they&#39;re brilliant.

One particular song that caught my attention is this song, <em>Pilgrim</em>.
It&#39;s very jazzy; it&#39;s my new favorite new song. I don&#39;t really get the
chance to properly listen to Josh Rouse until 2003 when he released his
fifth studio album, 1972. Now onto his eighth release, I suspect the
Spanish lifestyle in Valencia has influenced his output.

I think Josh Rouse shall add up to my list of
favorite singer-songwriters, which inlude (in no particular order) PJ
Harvey, Ryan Adams, Magnet (Even Johansen), David Gray, Gemma Hayes,
Beth Orton, and Devendra Banhart. And that does not include Bob Dylan
yet for I have yet to discover Dylan&#39;s music somewhere over the
internet. I think I might like James Morrison too. Oh, Norah Jones also
is a favorite singer-songwriter.

Catch me again tomorrow for more great
music. In the meantime, enjoy Josh Rouse. Can&#39;t wait to get my hands on
Josh Rouse&#39;s new album. And a backpacking trip to Sabah. This is
exciting.
