My Running Powersong – Candy Candy
I discovered this song from a friend’s FB page. It’s called Candy Candy by Kyary Pamyu Pamyu. I hope I got the name of the artist correctly. It’s lively. It’s fun. For some reasons, it makes me feel happy even if I don’t understand the song at all. This is from the same Japanese artist [...]
Standing Like An Idiot
Runner’s World would feature a motivational poster almost every week. This one really made me laugh.
