I'm neck-deep in work for my job as beauty editor at L'Oréal, mamas! I have so much to blog about, I know, and I will. Lemme just meet my deadlines first!
So anyway, quick post before I run off again to write beauty articles. So when I write late at night, I need music to help drown out the thick silence, which can get unnerving. I don't know why that happens to me when I work. The quiet never bothers me when I'm reading a book.
But anyway. So I listen to lots of songs but not from iTunes or Spotify. I usually search for a song my Uber driver recommended that day and then I let the auto play take over. This is how even though I am in my 40s, I am not stuck in the songs of my youth (which would be the 80s and 90s—which had the best songs!). That's why I still sing and dance to Justin Bieber, Ariana Grande and why I'm so so so in love with Ed Sheeran.
(sigh)
My current favorite song is "Perfect." I didn't really like it when it first came out, especially the video because he was so friend-zoned it was painful. Of course there is a happy ending to the video (watch it below!) and it took me a few views before I decided I slowly fell in love with the song the way the girl in the video slowly fell in love with Ed.
Anyway, as I was watching that dance at the end, it dawned on me how it's the perfect song to dance to at a wedding. Right??? I'm sure I'm not the first one who thought this and true enough, a quick search produced a dozed wedding dances. Okay, don't even bother looking at those because I already did and they are awkward and painful to watch haha
But this one, mamas... This one is beautiful. Of all the videos of wedding dances to "Perfect," this is not the swankiest wedding, nor the most elegant, and I wish the camera was nicer, but this dance... Oh, it's so sweet.
I keep thinking of Vince when I heard the line, "We were just kids when we fell in love, not knowing what it was." That's so us. Well, I dunno about Vince. He always seemed so sure about me, about us. So I just followed his lead and I'm so glad I did. So glad I did.

Though I don't believe in the word "perfect" because I don't think it really exist... I still believe in love!!! Especially after hearing Ed's Sheeran song!
ReplyDeleteI love that song! Hahhy!
ReplyDeleteCan I also just say I love it when you write about your love story? Haha! When I was single your blogs about Vince were some of the few that convinced me na "may forever" haha!
Now, I've found mine. Yiheee!!
I love this song too! My daughter loves Ed Sheeran so updated ako sa songs niya. ��

This made think where my relationship is with my husband right now. Keeping marriage under wrap is a challenge. We (couple) intend to forget why we fall in love and why we stay in relationship because of unending responsibilities as partners and as parents. The video reminds me to be grateful of simple things and my imperfect marriage. IG jadm_1122 FB Joys DM
