Calls and SMS

You sleep by the phone. Eat by the phone. Watching TV by the phone. So basically you do everything with the phone near you. It's even obvious when you are checking your phone every 30 seconds - Waiting for that call or Text from that particular someone. You rush to your phone coming back from the loo and for some people, they even bring it into the loo.

What do we call that?

"People in New Love Syndrome" or in short, PiNeLS

Yes. Love. The word that is adored by many but lived by a few. We read great love stories with awe tears and smiles. But we still trying to find our own. Romeo and Juliet had their fair share of exchanging love letters and notes. Well, that's a real classic but that was ages ago. Nowadays phone is a necessity  and not luxury. You keep in touch with everyone with it. You Call or Text the people you love using it. It's a miracle,yes, and many finds it a life threatening to actually lose a phone.

Lets talk about Love and Phone:

1) You smile when you received a text from the one you love.
2) You talk differently from the way you talk to your friends.
3) You anxiously holding and looking at the screen when your love take more then 5 minutes to reply your sweet, cherry on top Text.

Those are a few of many symptoms of PiNeLS. And when you are in love you can't deny the fact that you are in love. Well, funny thing is, with Call and Text you actually feels that you are close to your love one although the fact that you are separated by the sea.

As for me, I do all of the above. And when he calls, I'll go: "Hi Chenta!! I miss you!" and then I continue talking as sweetly as I could.

Love,
Jess.

I don't have the world to give to you as a present

Hmm... seriously, I don't have the world to give to you as a present. But I do have a heart for you to keep.

It's that time of life when things got really hard for me. Yes, It is extremely hard. For a well-known person, successful some might call me, I am still a human being. I have a fair share of life. I am being attacked left, right, front, back and center. My hands are tied. I can't seem to move even for an inch, with the fear that I might fall from grace - not that I mind. But starting everything from scratch, that is just crazily impossible. I stepped into that zone already and I am going to brave it, as usual, as a fighter. But surviving: death is the future but living is god's will.

Right now I am at the edge of a sharp end. Right at the verge of jumping off the cliff, a hand pulled me back. I felt another hand moving slowly across my stomach pulling me closer to the warm body I was yet to know. He held me close then, really close that I could feel the breath on my bare shoulder. He then whispered: "Not yet. Not yet."

He held me there for a few moments. The wind from the sea below pushed through our entwinned physical. The spray of tiny droplets of the salt water settled on our body; light and gentle. It soothed me for awhile and I could tell that he closed his eyes as if he was destined to be there at the right time at the right moment to save me. I felt his heartbeat on my back. It was a mixture of fast and slow pace. Very hard to determine. He started to hum a song, to cool me down even more. Then, he said: "Don't do things you'll regret, it kills you know. I want you to be with me as long as the air is part of our body. Blood running through our vein," He then turned me around.

Slowly, I opened my eyes. "I don't have the world to give to you as a present but I do have my heart for you to keep. Stay with me, for better or worse, I'll promise, my better future will come soon and its for us to share,"

I LOVE YOU.

Love,
Jess.

The Beginning of Love & Chenta: An Interview with Jessica Cromwell.

On 26th July 2010, Annahitta Sanchez was given a chance of a lifetime to have an interview with Jessica Cromwell, YES, THE Jessica Cromwell! Most of the time, her management team are professional enough to not let the press publicize her private life stories - that is not a secret at all, thank you very much! But with her upcoming album which is hyper-rumoured to be called "A New Chapter of Love", there is something more personal about it. Up to 2 songs recorded for the album, rumours spread like wild fire on savannah field on dry season. Well, during the session, as usual, they shared a fair time of fun and into-the-emotion-kind-of conversation. This is what Jessica has to say about her upcoming album due release in time for the Eid Celebration.

Annahitta Sanchez (AS): Hello, Jess! Thank you for the spare time for HT! Fantasia.
Jessica Cromwell (Jess): Giggled. Of course I have time for you Anna. Thank you for coming.

AS: So, tell me, rumour has it that you are coming with a new album.
Jess: Well, the rumour is quite true. I am coming up with my latest creative work which is an album consisting of 12 songs with the theme of love. 

AS: Any given name to this new baby of yours?
Jess: My team and I, we are planning it to name it A New Chapter Of Love. This is in collaboration with the recent 2-Month Celebration which was called 25 Years Of Love. So, yes, it seems symbolic to go through the next quarter of century of my life with a new set of memorable love songs. And the album is set to release on a celebration of love in September which is the Eid Celebration and the first single will come out in the middle of August.

AS: Its all about love, right? You are so full of it. You glow like you really are in love.
Jess: Well, I have no idea what you are talking about. Giggled.

AS: So who is he?
Jess: I'm sorry. Giggled. You have to do better than that.

AS: According to our trusted both paparazzis and PIs, you were seen on the bustling street of Time Square with some light touching, meaningful smiles and glares. Owh, and not to forget, holding hands and he constantly held your back every 4 minutes.
Jess: Now, that is a good one. I always know HT! Fantasia is THAT good. Laughed.

AS: Laughed. So what is his name?
Jess: You will be the first to know. His name is Ash Jefferson. Google his name and see what you can come up with.


AS: We'll do a cover for that for September issue. So the songs are mostly ballads and R&B and a few songs in Pop. How's that possible?
Jess: With the new management team, we are trying to unite the music of all genres under one roof. with that in mind, artists who are more flexible can do this now. And not to mention, the quality of the albums are being viewed through the emotion setting and overall production is being taken care of. So, yup, I am bringing something new to the table.

AS: That IS astonishing!
Jess: Indeed it is. This is to fuel up curiousity of the new set of singers who has their own style but still able to sing a wide range of genres.

AS: Well, congratulation Jess. Really had fun talking to you. All the best in the future.
Jess: Thank you very much! I really appreciate it.
