Not All Girls Like Pink

Trust? Hope? Love? Yea sure whatever.  Yes. Totally. Forever. Merry Christmas everyone.

"But each day the Lord pours his unfailing love upon me,  and through each night I sing his songs,  praying to God who gives me life." Pslam 42: 8

It's a bit of a contemplative week for me and I find myself writing more than usual. Not in my blogs but I'm trying to finish a story that I've been working on. It's been in progress for a year actually and I haven't gotten far. But this week, I'm inspired. I always need a good song or a certain picture or a phrase of sorts to get me going. Sometimes it's even a good conversation that kick starts those creative juices. This time round, I have Bon Iver to fuel me up. Go read up about the band. There's a pretty cool story of how the name came about. Bon Iver's kinda poetic to me. I discovered it a few years ago and it's my go-to band when I'm in that melancholy state. It doesn't happen as often these days. But it's a good balance of ups and downs. Right now, it's helping me write so maybe, hopefully I'll finish this piece by Christmas.  :)

Today i found/rediscovered some new music. I love when that happens. It's like stumbling upon little pockets of happiness. :) Channel Cairo - Elephant Room The Grates - Turn Me On Kimbra - Settle Down The Best Pessimist - Walking With Happiness Cat Power - Dreams Young the Giant - God Made Man (In The Open Session)

OWh what a birthday gift! New Switchfoot video! RESTLESS I am the sea on a moonless night Calling falling, slipping tides I am the leaky, dripping pipes The endless, aching drops of light I am the raindrop falling down Always longing for the deeper ground I am the broken, breaking seas Even my blood finds ways to bleed Even the rivers ways to run  Even the rain to reach the sun Even my thirsty streams  Even in my dreams I am restless, restless, restless Looking for you I am restless I run like the ocean to find your shore Looking for you I am the thorn stuck in your side I am the one that you left behind I am the dried-up doubting eyes Looking for the well that won't run dry Running hard for the other side The world that I've always been denied Running hard for the infinite With the tears of saints and hypocrites Oh, blood of black and white and grey Oh, death in life and night in day One by one by one We let our rivers run I can hear you breathing I can feel you leading ...

Today I celebrate my 28th year of existence. It's been a somewhat contemplative year where life has taken almost every sombre moment and turned it around. It's not like I've been a shining rainbow on speed but it's left me much more appreciative of the people and things around me. Many a day, I wake up and I choose 'Happy' . If I had to choose one word to sum up the year, it would be refreshing . After 27, life sped on and turned amazing. Sure there were glitches and down days and simply awful things and memories, outgrowing of things and lots of rainy days but amazing things still happened in the year of 27. The year of 28 feels NEW .  It's like a clean slate and miles and miles of hope. Today I celebrate my last year of single-hood. It's supposed to be a milestone which I'm writing down to remember. I know it's just a number and people stop counting and stop remembering birthdays after 21 or so. But I'm honoured to be given 28. I...

I Am A Girl - The Girls With Glasses Theme Song from The Girls With Glasses on Vimeo . I just adore this video!

I've been away for two days on a paradise island where the blues are bluer than blue and the greens a melodic hue. A place where the sky meets the sea which meets the sand, and the day begins with tiny drops, a light shower from the carefully shaped  clouds in the bright blue sky. After all that, the view of clusters and clusters of tall grey buildings with their rows of glass windows as I drive into KL startle me with its horrid sight. I still have a love-hate relationship with the city.

I just watched 'Bridesmaids' and I absolutely loved it! Hold On was one of the songs in the movie and they even got the real Wilson Phillips trio to appear in a cameo and perform in there! Wilson Phillips is an American vocal group that consist of the two Wilson sisters Carnie Wilson and Wendy Wilson and their friend Chynna Phillips. They were actually the best-selling female group in 1990! An awesome fact found in Wiki is that the Wilsons are the daughters of Brian Wilson from The Beach Boys while Phillips' parents are from The Mamas & the Papas. Hold On was probrably the most memorable song from them and I surprised myself when I jumped in and started singing along when it was played in the movie! Gosh the 90s.... I guess there were some good stuff from then. I'm gonna try and unearth a few more gems from that era. :D

From brown to black to brown to red and plum to copper to blond to silver and white... Boy do I hate growing old. Ugh.

Sometimes you watch a film that is made to break your heart and you still yell at it in surprise when it does. You swear you never want to feel ripped apart and contorted again, but you take another peek. You still seek out such films - the one that tugs at all the wrong strings. Somehow they understand you. You relate to that broken, heart wrenching film. It leaves you exposed. Emotions laid bare and feeling unfound. A piece of you discovered but not claimed. Because no one experiences a movie in the same way. Much like stories. You picture it, experience it, read it, somewhat, differently. Much like music and songs. Like the one that repeats itself and you do not have the heart to turn it off for it is hauntingly beautiful. The piece that makes you feel owh so sad, but wait, still...wait... it's beautiful. Loop it. Someone must have found joy when writing something so downright sad. Right?

Discovered Green River Ordinance awhile back and i sooo love this song. They are an American rock band from Fort Worth, Texas and their name refers to laws which prohibit door-to-door sales unless the house's owner gives permission to do so. Didn't know there were such laws around. *shrug*

I've begun reading Donald Miller's A Million Miles in a Thousand Years and it's really engaging me to 're-read' and 're-write' my own stories. I first picked it up cause I've been reading his blog and really liked the way he writes. So when I saw the book on sale at the amazing Popular book fest, I knew I had to own a copy! The book basically talks about his success, failure and his life falling into a lull when along comes an opportunity to write a film based on his book about his life. While planning the narrative for the fictional character Don, he confronts the unremarkable and dull nature of his real life. Can you imagine your life being made into a movie? Would it be worth watching? Would your story be engaging/powerful/dramatic/funny/memorable? Before one can begin to write a story you'd probrably want to know what a story is. The book defines a story as, “A character who wants something and overcomes conflict to get it”. He pens his journey ...

I've been wanting to feature The Weepies for awhile now. But I couldn't pick which song I liked best. They are an amazing indie pop-folk band fronted by singer-songwriters Deb Talan and Steve Tannen. Their music has been described as "subtly intoxicating folk-pop" and I'm not gonna argue with that. They're my go-to music when I want to just unwind and daydream for a bit.

In an attempt to be more observant, this is a Tuesday segment dedicated to the world around me. I'll be observing three things which are interesting and bringing them to life here, so you can imagine with me. One: I pass you everyday as we walk to work in opposite directions. You always look so chic with the cigarette in your hand and your sunnies with your hair neatly in a band, whispy strays blowing softly framing your square jaw as you walk with a bounce. You put together gorgeous rockable outfits straight out of Polyvore or Chictopia. You are hands down the best dressed LadyBoy I have ever seen in my life. Two: You walk out of the big glass doors I usually check my reflection in. Smiling, you adjust the waist band of your pants and look up catching my eye in the process. Your smile is quickly replaced with an awkward sheepishness I can't quite comprehend. You speed walk away down the street. Pretty fast for a man with your physique. Looking up at the signboard of the bu...

New Zealand-based comedy duo, Bret McKenzie and Jemaine Clement are from Flight of the Conchords and they're crazy hilarious! Awesome way to kick start your week!

I've never really been a good sleeper. When I was about four or five I used to wake up in the middle of the night with panic attacks. And I'd scream and scream till my mom came and got me and put me back to bed. That happened every night till one day they figured it was asthma and maybe my panic attacks were caused by me not being able to breathe. But the whole 'waking up in the middle of the night' thing never really went away. The panic attacks are minimal but I'm twenty-eight years old these sleepless nights are beginning to show.I have these dark rings and perpetual stoned look... should I start to panic? "What are the things that keep you up at night?," my friends asked but I don't really know though. All I know, is when I sleep, I dream about zombies, snakes, wedding nightmares (this one deserves a whole post of its own), murder, quests, puzzles, death, giant robots and a whole bunch of other weird adventures go on in my sleep. I know...

I still absolutely love http://www.gapingvoid.com/ . I sometimes wish I had stuck with advertising instead of pursuing publishing/writing. But hey, I'm glad I've dipped my hands in both. I'm sure there's still a whole bunch of things I've yet to try. Life's gonna be an incredible journey once you decide to just step out of the shade and enjoy the sunshine. Or I might just write greeting cards cause sometimes, I reach new levels of corny. heh.

It's shaping up to be a pretty good week! I love Mondays that kick off with good news. I'm reminded of this tune today: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pmro9l2scXk I can't embed the video it but do check it! Debbie Reynolds, Gene Kelly and Donald O'Connor what a perfect way to kick start the week! And of course Foo Fighters on Lollapalooza streamed live on YouTube! That was my dose of morning coffee. Cheers to a great week ahead of you!

Kye Kye is an ambient band composed of the Estonia-born Yagolnikov siblings. Now I don't usually enjoy ambient music but I was intrigued after reading their interview on RelevantMagazine.com The part that got me was when Tim said, "We always say it's not about creativity, it's about how well you listen. For this new album, we've spent less time actually trying to write songs, and trying to come up with concepts and ideas to write about, and how to best explain what we're experiencing. Instead, we've spent more time with God and getting to know who He is, and what that relationship looks like." Some of the best songs are taken from the bible and as I stumbled upon Kye Kye's tumblr I saw a post which hopefully opens you up to a whole new outlook about song writing. :)

via www.pulsarwallpapers.com Ever since attending a design and movement class in university, I've been intrigued by the effect that music has on us and our movement. This probrably falls into Futurism but I'm not doing a study on art periods but rather seeing art as a worship form. The Futurists practiced in every medium of art, including painting, sculpture, ceramics, graphic design, industrial design, interior design, theatre, film, fashion, textiles, literature, music, architecture and even gastronomy. Now who's to say that all that could not be grounds for experimental worship? Put a song on loop then start painting! Sounds simple enough, but how much of it is you being led by the music and how much of it is just you commanding an artpiece? Are we led by the atmosphere or by strong emotion? There was another class which I thoroughly enjoyed too - Rhythm and Movement. That one was particularly freeing and I learnt a lot about myself in that class. I think...

via http://anyonelsebutyou.tumblr.com/ Every so often as i sit at my desk at work, reading news reports and mommy blogs, or writing a piece for our website, i feel like i'm being nudged. Sometimes it's a wave of dizziness like the kind felt during tremors or small earthquakes and sometimes it's as if someone's just walked past me and bumped into my chair, while at other times it's like some force of unfelt and unheard wind has just knocked into me. I look up from my notebook screen and it takes a while for my eyes to adjust and see things clearly. And then i look around the office to see if anyone else felt that too. Was anyone else rudely shaken out of their routine work of designing, editing or writing. Did anyone else have their daytime reverie interrupted by unseen forces. Of course it's most-likely my imagination. My blood sugar probably dropped hence the light-headedness. Or maybe my chair has gotten a little rickkety. Well recently when 'the nudge...

I felt shitloads of excitement when i saw this pop up in the Land Of Broken Hearts site awhile back. There's Jon Foreman of Switchfoot and Johnny Rzeznik of Goo Goo Dolls - one of my all-time favourites. I was pretty obsessed with them in high school. Like, poster and song lyrics plastered across my wall kinda obsessed. heh. It's awesome that after all these years, he's still so hawt and that song still managed to turn me to mush. :D

Today I'll introduce you guys to Lemolo. They are a pop-folk duo from Seattle, Washington, United States. Lemolo consists of two very talented women - Meagan Grandall on vocals, guitar and keyboard and Kendra Cox on drums and keyboard. They are currently working on recording their first full length album which they plan on releasing in the fall of 2011. I discovered the band via KEXP which is also coincidentally my most favourite YouTube Channel. That's probably where the bulk of my time disappears to. I spend WAAYYYY too much time on that channel. I love the song "Letters" so check it!

We've been pretty busy over at our home which I will fondly refer to as (BK). Can't think of an appropriate abbreviation for it just yet. Bubbly Kisses? Buns in a Knot? ahh... next time.. While I'm busy making a mess, my mom's packing for her great big European escape. She was last in London when she was in her early twenties. So now at 59, she's all excited to be going back! My sister has also been busy, dipping her fingers in paint. She was recently commissioned to draw a mural at an office space. Here she is hard at work One wall almost done. And this one's a fun mural for Miss Sheena's bedroom. :D Psst: She's available for hire. Her work I mean. She can jazz up any space you want just buzz for details.

I had a little break last weekend and I managed to catch up on some projects I had lying around. I love paper pom poms so I'm gonna try and make a whole lot more for this wedding I'm planning in two weeks! I was also really inspired by Jen Ramos of Made By Girl . I really loved her lipstick dots print and decided to make one of my own! Only I used nail polish instead of acrylic. :D A little bit of OPI, L'oreal and Elianto!

I'm so lovin' the Editor's wishlist on Matchbook Mag . I'm having a pretty flower power week and truly appreciating Chinese-French inspired decor, like this awesome gallery on Luscious . Which reminds me, I need to flower-up my place this June! We're celebrating a whole string of weddings which might probably lead to an overload of wedding loves. :D HAPPY WEEKEND~!

I soooo love this.

From birdinacagebride.com Today, it suddenly dawned upon me that by this time next year, I'd be waking up and instead of hearing my mom pottering about the kitchen, I'd be the one toasting bread and making coffee for the man who would be a permanent fixture in my life. It's a strange thought. One which I've for the longest time refused to think about. I said YES in February, and then folded the BIG M and tucked it neatly into a box. It was perhaps fear of the unknown or apprehension about the whole idea. Or maybe it was just a fleeting feeling that there's so much yet to be done. So I hit pause. But today, I took a peek at it. I took the idea of marriage out of that box, unfolded it and I looked at it long and hard. Today, it didn't scare me. It looked right back at me and winked. And I hugged it. The Big M is now pinned to my mirror. Everytime i look at it, I'm reminded of the sappy yet utterly beautiful poem by Ludwig van Beethoven - Immortal Beloved. And ...

Music Monday today will feature Lykke Li. I think I've featured ' I'm Good. I'm Gone ' on one of my other blogs before. There's just something about her. Jason doesn't care much for her and laughs everytime I play her videos but ...pfftt.... whatever. Her second studio album 'Wounded Rhymes' is out and it's got this sad, melancholic sorta feel about it. You should totally check out 'Sadness is a Blessing' directed by Tarik Saleh. It sorta captures the whole mood of the album. My absolute favourite track is 'Love out of Lust' . Not a normally likeable title for me but, the song's pretty cool. :) Check it!

i wonder when it is that... people stop trying....

Future of Forestry is an ecclectic Christian rock band from San Diego California. They were previously known as Something Like Silas which consisted of a husband-wife team but unfortunately their marriage fell apart and after some time, Future of Forestry was born. The name "Future of Forestry" is taken from a poem of the same name by British author C. S. Lewis. I'm sooo glad Eric Owyoung didn't quit the scene alltogether. He's just so mighty talented and his songs are just so full of emotion. They're on Twitter @forestry so do check them out!

ok i'm not really over the concert yet. hehe. But here's my article that's up on Yes World:  Switchfoot raises a storm in KL UPDATE: I've reproduced the article here cause it's been taken off the site   Switchfoot raises a  storm in KL San Diego-based rock band Switchfoot returned to Malaysia on May 1st as part of their 2011 Asian tour of their latest album, "Hello Hurricane". The guys were last in Malaysia in 2008 in what was described as 'one of the best live shows in Malaysia!'   Armed with the knowledge of Things not to do at a Switchfoot concert   we were geared to have the best night of our lives despite the storm brewing in the heart of KL.   Opening for Switchfoot was upcoming Malaysian band Bus Company which stood their own and got the crowd charged up for the main act.   Switchfoot – comprising Jon Foreman (vocals/guitar), Tim Foreman (bass), Chad Butler (drums), Jerome Fontamillas (keys/guitar) and Drew Shirley (guitar...

Awesome video Michelle managed to take at the KL leg of the Switchfoot Asian tour. This is one of my all-time favourites!

succinct song titles make up a poem of sorts. We dared to move and learned to breathe and then there was Only Hope no longer 24 not Incomplete we looked at the Stars Turning everything over, cause living is simple I'm more than fine, you're not the mess of me The shadow proves the sunshine The Sound of the fatal wound The Setting Sun, owh what a Beautiful Letdown you're Home we are one tonight, so long and Goodnight Punk. * can't ever go wrong with Switchfoot. :D

what if... they were right, he was wrong try as i might, push on head strong fought the fight, bruised left and right heart in hand, run as far as I can Only then can i comprehend but it still does not make sense never does never will make it end? STOP! what if... i was right, they are gone was it wrong? you're no where to be found i choke, i fear, you're still not here heart in hand, i offer you to mend I'll soon understand all's not within my plan never was always is hope - just around the bend.

Okok I know they're not new and 'undiscovered' or 'unheard' of but they're COMING TO MALAYSIA so this warrants a post for this week. :D Well Switchfoot hails from San Diego and consists of Jerome Fontamillas, Chad Butler, Drew Shirley, Jon Foreman and Tim Foreman. Did you know that the name "Switchfoot" is a surfing term? According to Jon Foreman, to switch your feet means to take a new stance facing the opposite direction. It's about change and movement, a different way of approaching life and music. That sorta reminds me of my church - 180° . Making a change - moving away from the norm and being absolutely different, radical and turning lives around! It's just amazing to be part of something that's life-changing! A little update on Wiki is that they are working on their a studio project called Vice Verses. According to Butler, the core of the record will rest thematically in the idea of the polarity of life. A release date of June, 2011 ...

For the longest time... I've wished this too...

I recently moved to a window seat at The Big Corporation. No it's not a promotion or anything... they just had me move and so I did. I get a big L-shaped table, and I inherited two file drawers and a 6-tier bookcase. Behind me are HUGE glass windows which overlook Bukit Bintang and it's got large trees leaning in so there's some shade from the harsh concrete buildings that surround me. I have the blinds pulled right up so sunshine streams into the office everyday. It's a gorgeous sight when I just take time to lean back, coffee in hand and just gaze at the busy street below. I've dreamed about this spot for years, and I've always looked out this window from where I was sitting across the office. I'm a happy camper these days with my new space. I don't trip over stuff as much or bang my elbows or scrape my knee, at least not since i moved. *beams* I've got a cute window ledge where two pretty vases sit. It's empty for now... *hint hint at fiance w...

This is so freakin amazing. I salute the sound guys for this video too man. It felt as if James Blake was singing right to me. But ahhh... James Blake... I just wanna put you in my pocket and have you make sweet music for me. I'm still partay-ing in Borneo, so see you guys soon and I'll be back with a tan~

There is this little bookstore tuck deep in the maze of little shops and alleys at Sg Wang Plaza which is my favourite hang out place during lunch hour. It's basically an old magazine shop and holds heaps and mounds of treasure for those who don't mind judging books by its covers. You see, every magazine is wrapped and sealed in clear plastic so you never get to flip through it like you would at a regular magazine store. Most of the magazines there are back issues of foreign titles from the US, Australia or Europe and are never ever found in any other bookstore. I usually pick out the ones I like, and note their titles and then rush back to Google them to see if they're worth buying. So when I spot an issue that's two months old, it goes to the top of my list cause that's practically brand new! The best part is, what would usually cost RM28-RM40 would only be beetween RM9.90-RM15.90. That's a steal!!! It's still a lot to pay for a magazine but I supposed it...

Today this ONE video moved me. Some days, all it takes is ONE thing to totally transform you. :)

I was just poking around online and I came across this wonderful band called Little Joy . Just their name alone is pretty and they're sorta amazing! Little Joy is a Brazilian/American rock band formed in 2007 by Los Hermanos singer/guitarist Rodrigo Amarante, The Strokes drummer Fabrizio Moretti and Binki Shapiro. 'Next Time Around' is just the perfect tune as I get ready to leave for the beach at the end of the week! :D

www.postsecret.com I've been thinking about death a lot lately... I don't mean to sound so morbid on a sunny Sunday afternoon. But I guess that's just one of the things people think about when they're not exactly having the best of times. I wonder what my last words would be, if i would get the chance to tell people how I feel, or who the last person I hug would be. I know that I'd give my organs away and I know all my books would be well-loved. But I always wonder if i would have said all i needed to say, or done all that I've needed to do. I know it's something I won't ever know but it just makes me think. A whole lot more than is necessary. After reading the secret above from PostSecret , it was like a reminder that life's too short for you to be thinking bout death. I should be doing things and not putting them off. I should meet people cause you never know what distance might keep you apart and I should always be grateful for life, cause there...

In an attempt to be more observant, I'm starting a new Tuesday segment dedicated to the world around me. I'll be observing three things which are interesting and bringing them to life here, so you can imagine with me. First: I was having ice-cream today and I realise, people stare when you lick an ice-cream cone. No matter how discreet I was in eating my ice-cream, people were staring! Which of course made me really self-conscious. Determined to enjoy my ice-cream, I said, "...pshaw!" and licked away. Second: While waiting for the train, I saw a guy - handsomely dressed, scribbling in a notebook. It wasn't a particularly grand notebook or datebook, just a regular lined notebook with dog-eared edges. Every so often, he'd pause, look far off into the distance and then as if flooded by inspiration, he'd bend over his notebook and write with speed as if he were chasing the words down from his head. Third: We've been having grey sky mornings fo...

Its a little late in the day but I just had to share my top pick for Music Monday. I just came across this song by The Audreys - a band from Adelaide, Australia and it's hauntingly beautiful~ They're a bit folksy and bluesy and although their earlier music sounds a little too dreary for my liking, this new album seems pretty promising!

I had this really vivid dream that I was at a wedding party and the lights went off. And suddenly the intro to Katy Perry's 'Teenage Dream' came on and my friends and I got out of our seats and started dancing... I think we were doing a Glee improv and we were singing and dancing in synchrony like we'd choreographed the whole thing. Some people were enjoying it, while the older folks - not so much. And then the bride and groom walks in dancing to the song too! They were doing the solos and totally nailing it. The groom actually sounded like Darren Criss in my dream. And then I woke up. Happy. What a great start to my Friday after in incredibly depressing week. There's hope for the weekend after all!

My dad happens to like the author Khalil Gibran and after hearing so much about him, i decided to look him up. Stumbling across some excerpts of his work, i've picked up this one to share with you. With the number of weddings taking place this year, I think it's a beautiful piece to share :) The Prophet by Khalil Gibran – Marriage You were born together, and together you shall be forevermore. You shall be together when the white wings of death scatter your days. Ay, you shall be together even in the silent memory of God. But let there be spaces in your togetherness, And let the winds of the heavens dance between you. Love one another, but make not a bond of love: Let it rather be a moving sea between the shores of your souls. Fill each other’s cup but drink not from one cup. Give one another of your bread but eat not from the same loaf Sing and dance together and be joyous, but let each one of you be alone, Even as the strings of a lute are alone though they quiver with the sa...

In an attempt to be more observant, I'm starting a new Tuesday segment dedicated to the world around me. I'll be observing three things which are interesting and bringing them to life here, so you can imagine with me. First: As i drive to work along the MEX expressway, I arrive at a bend which always takes my breath away. It's my first glimpse of the KL Cityscape set before cool blue skies and cotton candy clouds. At one particular spot, KL Tower lines up with Times Square and KLCC and sometimes it’s these little architectural marvels that get me excited about working in the big city. Second: Chivalry is not dead in this big City. Today I saw a young man offer his brolly to two of his female colleagues while he walked ahead in the pelting rain towards his office (I assume) in Bukit Bintang. Third: It's funny what you overhear in the streets if only you will yourself to stop and listen. A girl in an incredibly short skirt wonders aloud, "What's the d...

Now this would be the perfect theme song for my Monday morning! I sooo don't wanna be at The Big Corporation today after the lazy weekend I've had... but owhwell... Sugarland is fast becoming my happy-feel-good band and everyone could do with a lil' bit country now and then. Sugarland consists of singer–songwriters Jennifer Nettles (lead vocals) and Kristian Bush (background vocals, lead vocals, mandolin, acoustic guitar, and harmonica). Jennifer does this 'Shaggy' impersonation in some of her songs which i absolutely love! Check out some of their live concerts too. Looks real fun! Now what are the chances of Sugarland making an appearance in Malaysia? hmm....

The Adams Letters John and Abigail Adams exchanged more than 1,100 letters during the course of their courtship and 54-year-marriage and his diplomatic and presidential career. This is an excerpt from a letter Abigail wrote to John dated Dec. 23, 1782 (spellings are as in the original letter): My Dearest Friend, ... should I draw you the picture of my Heart, it would be what I hope you still would Love; tho it containd nothing New; the early possession you obtained there; and the absolute power you have ever mantaind over it; leaves not the smallest space unoccupied. I look back to the early days of our acquaintance; and Friendship, as to the days of Love and Innocence; and with an undiscribable pleasure I have seen near a score of years roll over our Heads, with an affection heightned and improved by time — nor have the dreary years of absence in the smallest degree effaced from my mind the Image of the dear untittled man to whom I gave my Heart.
