ET phone home...

So we went for a car ride over the weekend. As sure as a moth drawn to the light, I am drawn towards this particular Serapi Mountain. Whenever I have been away for a while, somehow I have this weird feeling of needing to 'see' this mountain.

It must be all those years growing up, sitting by the veranda just enjoying the sunset that would fall behind the mountain. It is always breathtaking. As it turned to dusk, and the stars starts making their gorgeous appearance, ahh.. those were moments when countless wishes were made, hoping that one day, it will come true. Naive, I know..



And how boring dreams be without its 'soundtrack' right? For a good measure of drama, while wishing on the majestic mountain, I would put this cassete (that was equivalent to our Ipod back then) into the player and let it run repeatedly in the background. (To be more precise, rewind and replay ;D)

Michael Jackson- Someone in the Dark (lyrics)

"ET,  phone home"

That was The phrase back then too..

Countless wishes, dreams and longings later, ~ lived, shattered  or outgrown.
One thing's for sure, I still love this mountain and this song..
