525,600 minutes,
525,000 moments so dear.
525,600 minutes -
how do you measure,
measure a year?
In daylights,
in sunsets,
in midnights,
in cups of coffee.
In inches,
in miles,
in laughter,
in strife. In 525,600 minutes -
how do you
measure a year in the life?
How about love?
How about love?
How about love?
Measure in love.
Seasons of
love.

525,600 minutes!
525,000 journeys to plan.
525,600 minutes -
how can you measure
the life of a woman or man?

In truths that she learned,
or in times that he cried.
In bridges he burned,
or the way that she died.

It’s time now to sing out,
the the story never ends
let's celebrate remember a year in the life of friends.
Remember the love!
Remember the love!
Remember the love!
Measure in love.
Seasons of love!
Seasons of love.


The song above is adopted from the play "RENT".As my friends and i were watching the movie version (we watch the play last year) this line kept vibrating on my mind as i listen to the song
" How do you measure a year in the life?".
This prompted me to write a series of blog for this season. I was thinking of starting it on my birthday but felt its nice to start it this thansgiving, but proscrastination have come in the way so this is a bit late. Funny how time really flies, i celebrated two thanksgiving here in the LAnd of Milk and Honey already. On and on and on and a year have pass in my life.Make me think what have i done to fill those times, how they just pass and gone for good. All in all as i was thinking and reminiscing, i've discovered that a lot have happened, met a lot of people along the way, some i have touch, some just pass by but nonetheless add some color in my life. Last year thanksgiving was spent with a very nice family in Virginia; this time was spent in New Jersey with friends whom i considered my second family.I'm writing this blog a little late because i was tired last night, a little tipsy,chatting and preparing a trip to Cali. Still belated Turkey Day to all!

my favorite lines from that song:

how do we measure, measure a year...
in daylights, in sunsets, in midnights, in cups of coffee...
in inches, in miles in laughter in strife...

Yeah you're right!! Relationships takes a lot of work, it needs a good soil, sunshine, air and a lot of care for it to grow and flourish!! And i know how much you taking care of our friendship and i appreciate it alot!! Same on this side of the world, the care is the same co'z I don't want to loose you either!!
Now were such a drama king and queen!!
Think we will win the Oscar???
