What are words

2011-08-03T12:58:00.002+08:00

Wow! If a man would sing this to me, I would fall head over heels for him definitely... it's so romantic... and I'm a sucker to romanticism. Lucky me! There's no man that I meet can be this romantic...
Here goes the lyrics:

Anywhere you are, I am near
Anywhere you go, I'll be there
Anytime you whisper my name, you'll see
How every single promise I keep
'Cos what kind of guy would I be
If I was to leave when you need me most

What are words
If you really don't mean them
When you say them
What are words
If they're only for good times
Then they don't
When it's love
Yeah, you say them out loud
Those words, They never go away
They live on, even when we're gone

And I know an angel was sent just for me
And I know I'm meant to be where I am
And I'm gonna be
Standing right beside her tonight
And I'm gonna be by your side
I would never leave when she needs me most

What are words
If you really don't mean them
When you say them
What are words
If they're only for good times
Then they don't
When it's love
Yeah, you say them out loud
Those words, They never go away
They live on, even when we're gone

Anywhere you are, I am near
Anywhere you go, I'll be there
And I'm gonna be here forever more
Every single promise I keep
'Cos what kind of guy would I be
If I was to leave when you need me most

I'm forever keeping my angel close

p/s: Chris Medina sings this song to his wife who had an accident and suffering from brain injury and promise to take care of her... so damn sweet and romantic...

how emotions affect the body

2011-07-21T18:32:00.003+08:00

A while ago, I was feeling quite in a good mood and start to get hungry...
But then something upsets me...
and now I'm not hungry at all...
Seriously, I have to practice right mindfulness... not letting emotions to affect my mind, soul and body...

dedication to bobo

2011-07-15T19:56:00.001+08:00

Bobo is my house pet. And a goosey. The biggest one among all 4 gooseys. We got him when I was 18. At that time, he was a little duckling. Cute one too. Always respond to us whenever we call out his name. He gotten sick when he was two years old. And I still remb we took him to the vet.
He was traumatized by the dogs which came n disturb him recently. When we were not around. Bloody dogs. I hate dogs!
Today my mom found out he passed away already. Dad buried him at the backyard.
To bobo, always my favorite pet. May u rest in peace and be happy in next life.

inappropriate

2011-06-27T23:03:00.001+08:00

How is being appropriate or inappropriate? By social norms? How do you define all those? Is it culture? Family background? Race? Open minded or traditional thinking? How do we act appropriately? are those ethics defined in books? Where do we even have those rules? I mean since young, we've been taught on our manners, but mind you, manners to you might be insult to others. Things that you think is good to others may really offend people. Just some random thoughts

fear

2011-06-21T10:19:00.001+08:00

I was watching this video clip by a venerable talking about jealousy. One funny thing pointed out by the teacher is that, people have fears. For example, if you fear to offend people by talking, so ur solution is to talk less or don't talk at all. However, because of this, this makes people angry and frustrate even more because of you refusing to talk. Haha. So ironic!
It takes wisdom to be a human! May we all have the wisdom in being human! Rejoice!

P/s: please search in youtube for "rinpoche jealousy" if you wanna listen to his dhamma teachings.

6th June

2011-06-06T22:30:00.002+08:00

0606. A unique date.

okay, I'm quite good with dates if I want to remember it.

But this unique date is very easy to remember.

I remember this date is one of my form 6's friend birthday.

I remember this date back in 2006, when the cinema released a movie about devils and demons. (kind of forgot the movie name as I only remember they released on 06.06.06 as triple 6 number is related to devil. Got me all excited to watch the movie, but in the end never watch as usual. haha)

And I vividly remember how I spent this date last year.

Such memories. the good and the bad.

So, here's a toast to June the 6th, to whoever born on this date, to whoever have such good and bad memories of this date.

When We Two Parted

2011-05-09T21:20:00.004+08:00

This is a poem by Lord Byron...

Well versed, especially in view of a broken-hearted person. How sad it is to part with a person that you love, whom you will never meet again or meet as though you were strangers when you know them so well before!

When we two parted

In silence and tears,
Half broken-hearted,
To sever for years,
Pale grew thy cheek and cold,
Colder thy kiss;
Truly that hour foretold
Sorrow to this.

The dew of the morning
Sank chill on my brow
It felt like the warning
Of what I feel now.
Thy vows are all broken,
And light is thy fame:
I hear thy name spoken,
And share in its shame.

They name thee before me,
A knell to mine ear;
A shudder comes o'er me
Why wert thou so dear?
They know not I knew thee,
Who knew thee too well:
Long, long shall I rue thee
Too deeply to tell.

In secret we met
In silence I grieve
That thy heart could forget,
Thy spirit deceive.
If I should meet thee
After long years,
How should I greet thee?
With silence and tears.

p/s: recently kind of being arty farty. haha...

Criteria of being my MAN

2011-05-04T14:05:00.003+08:00

haha... was kind of joking with my friend through msn about my criteria in finding my significant other...the list NOT very long and NOT very demanding also :p

so here's the list:

leng chai (handsome in cantonese)
multi talent
responsible
kind hearted
taller than me
$$ more
romantic
can cook
family oriented
older than me
and the list just go on and on

Not very long right? As age grow older, criteria became more and more... haha

and here's what my friend replied to me that make me laugh:

leng chai, FAIL
multi talent, FAIL
responsible, FAIL
kind hearted, FAIL
taller than me, EPIC FAIL
$$ more, EPIC FAIL
romantic, FAIL
can cook, if maggi (instant noodle) can do, then i PASS, else FAIL
family oriented, PASS except for bro borrow money
older than me also, PASS
the list just goes on and on la.. 90% FAIL

my friend was even saying if he found a man like that, he would first kill him...haha. but I personally think he wouldn't be able to find one, because I don't think there's ever such a man existed in this world. Even if he existed, I would still think there's some flaw in that man. Hey nobody's perfect.

p/s: it would be best if he could play some music or has a beautiful voice that can serenade me in a romantic place. hahaha.. thinking too much already

the love language

2011-04-01T23:14:00.001+08:00

There's 5 types of love language. Go google it and there's quite a number of quiz test on it. The 5 types are quality time, acts of service, gift receiving, physical touch and words of affirmation.

And guess which one I had? QUALITY TIME the most and second in line was words of affirmation. Kinda taken aback as I always thought i'm the type on acts of service. Coz I always think action speaks louder than words. Anyway, quality time is true. And here goes some description of it:

In Quality Time, nothing says "I love you" like full, undivided attention. Being there for this type of person is critical, but really being there—with the TV off, fork and knife down, and all chores and tasks on standby—makes you feel truly special and loved. Distractions, postponed activities, or the failure to listen can be especially hurtful.

Maybe all this while i've been given undivided attention from my family that resulted me being like this. Haha. I'm after all the youngest in the family and being the manja type :p

39th anniversary

2011-03-23T18:55:00.002+08:00

wow! today marks the day of my mom and dad's 39th wedding anniversary (in chinese lunar calendar by the way LOL).

can't imagine this old couple being together for so long.

i think that maybe it's because of their children, they hold on till this long.

Happy anniversary mom dad! thank you for loving each other until now :)

Hi bloggie! It's been long that I scribbled anything here. So, let's get some update...
Life still normal. But a bit like those drama shown on tv. Struggling with life as usual, with family, friends, work, basically LIFE! How am I feeling right now? Happy? Kinda. Sad? Kinda too. I don't think i am that optimistic person as i used to be. Now I'm not giving too high hopes on anything. Don't want to expect anything. Just let it be and do my best. If it's meant to be, it should work out perfectly.

Ooh like to sing this song by adele "rolling in the deep". Just love the beat and rhythm. Hehe

The scars of ur love, remind me of us

I can't help feeling
We almost had it all
Rolling in the deep
(U're gonna wish u never had met me)
U had my heart inside ur hand
And u played it with ur beating
(Tears are gonna fall rolliing in the deep)

quart life crisis

2010-12-06T19:15:00.001+08:00

Yes. I am now already in quart life crisis... everybody has been telling me, I am over the quart life... but I don't think so.. and I abit lazy to explain to all of them.. so I'll explain over here why I'm having my quart life crisis now instead of few years back...
It's just a week's away from my actual birthday...I'm now thinking, where do I go from here? Where am I now? Where was I before? What was I thinking? What am I thinking? What will I think? What did I do? What have I done? What am I doing? What am I going to do?
U see, am I not having a life crisis??? Lol... really a lot of things to think about. It's abit scary too...
And I wanna highlight, having december as birthday month is so unfair. Ppl will think ur age is same as the january babies even though ur birthday not yet passed... but then for legal age, its another case... and if u haven't reach the age limit, u wished u were +1 old

picky on food

Growing up in the hands of a full-time housewife is sometimes not very good, especially the housewife is a damn good cook. Haha...coz u get to be very picky on food... but then the housewife also teaches the kids to have good manners... so, no matter how bad the food people offered, you still gotta say, it's ok and not bad... Haha...
Man, how I miss my mom's homecook food...and yes, I am very picky on food...my taste is exceptional one... my mom used to ask me taste testing while she cooks...haha

Ellie K.-introduction

2010-11-25T21:52:00.003+08:00

Ellie K. was a hopeless romantic and idealistic girl you've ever met. She always had this perfect man in her mind. He would be tall and strong, a caring and sensitive guy, who had this perfect sense of humor. A lovable man who will be always by her side when she had troubles. A man she could spend her lifetime with and have children. Well, basically all these are part of her daydream. She loves to daydream a lot, you know, while she is not occupied.

2. Purposely smack a stranger, pretending that he/she was your friend (like one of the scenes in Stephen Chow's movie)
3. Wear a bikini
4. Sing/dance in public
5. Act like a mad person in public
6. Jump off from a ladder
7. Go to cemetery at night alone

that's all i can think of for now... haha... next time continue the list if i think of anything. bleh

I will

2010-11-18T22:54:00.002+08:00

such a nice and sweet song covered by Alison Krauss.

"Who knows how long I've loved you
You know I love you still
Will I wait a lonely lifetime?
If you want me to I will

For if I ever saw you
I didn't catch your name
But it never really mattered
I will always feel the same

Love you forever and forever
Love you with all my heart
Love you whenever we're together
Love you when we're apart

And when at last I find you
Your song will fill the air
Sing it loud so I can hear you
Make it easy to be near you
For the things you do endear you to me
Oh, you know I will, I will"

the heart vs the brain

2010-11-14T20:13:00.003+08:00

ever had this situation that ur heart vs ur brain?
i've been in this situation most of the time! :(
it's like the small little angel and little devil beside ur ear giving u all the possible good and bad advice... the good vs the bad...the angel serenade u with the harp music that makes u feel good and dreamy... the devil pokes his little fork on ur shoulder to remind u the pain and the torture...
haha...not a very nice analogy but u get what i mean
it just goes back and forth... the rational... the feelings... the rational again... and the feelings again...
but back to the question, how do u handle these two little organs' battle? everybody has given me the advice. but do u know it's so difficult to execute it? say is easy...but it sure is difficult to act upon it...
i hate conflict of interest! hate it! loathe it! :(

2010-11-12T20:59:00.001+08:00

Now I totally understand my mom never let me keep long hair when I was young. I sweat like nobody's business when I am active. My hair is all wet when I exercise a lot or play a lot.
I realize now I still do sweat a lot. Coz now I am in short hair and just now went for a jog. My hair is all wet la... super irritating lo...

ex-stuff

2010-10-31T22:29:00.003+08:00

hmm... just wondering what do you do with all the stuff that your ex gave to you?
some ppl would throw it away, give it back to ex, or donate to somebody else?
but for me, mayb i'm weird... i keep all the stuff... haha
seriously, i don't see why i should give it away... it's still usable to me...it's not like when i see all these stuff, i would still have feelings back again...

this topic came about when my sis saw me wearing a tee shirt that's a plus size for me...she asked me where i've bought it.. .then i honestly told her it was a gift from my ex...then she asked, why are you still wearing it... i was like, huh? why can't I? there's nothing wrong what...i don't see a point why i should throw it away when it's still usable lor... haha...and now thinking about it... the phone that she's using now is also a gift from my ex too.... hahaha.. so should i tell her to throw that away too? :p

i dunno

2010-10-31T20:28:00.002+08:00

sometimes it's best to answer ppl this: "I dunno"
why?
because sometimes it's best that u keep quiet about what u know about a matter but has nothing to do with you and none of your concern...
I've always adopted the "I dunno" attitude. haha...sometimes it's because i don't wanna create more trouble for myself and the other party...and sometimes it's because "I REALLY DUNNO" lolz

相愛很難

2010-10-21T22:31:00.002+08:00

eh... i like this song's lyrics... haha

最好有生一日都愛下去
但誰人能將戀愛當做終生興趣
生活其實旨在找到個伴侶
面對現實熱戀很快變長流細水

可惜我不智或僥倖
對火花天生敏感
不過兩隻手拉得太緊
愛到過了界那對愛人
同時亦最易變成一對敵人

也許相愛很難
就難在其實雙方各有各寄望怎麼辦
要單戀都難
受太大的禮會內疚卻也無力歸還

也許不愛不難但如未成佛昇仙也會怕
愛情前途黯淡
愛不愛都難
未快樂先有責任給予對方面露歡顏

得到浪漫又要有空間
得到定局卻怕去到終站
然後付出多得到少不介意豁達
又擔心有人看不過眼

可惜我不智或僥倖
對火花天生敏感
不過兩隻手拉得太緊
愛到過了界那對愛人
同時亦最易變成一對敵人

也許相愛很難
就難在其實雙方各有各寄望怎麼辦
要單戀都難
受太大的禮會內疚卻也無力歸還

也許不愛不難但如未成佛昇仙也會怕
愛情前途黯淡
愛不愛都難
未快樂先有責任給予對方面露歡顏

得到浪漫又要有空間
得到定局卻怕去到終站
然後付出多得到少不介意豁達
又擔心有人看不過眼

無論熱戀中失戀中
都永遠記住第一戒別要張開雙眼

bored stuff

2010-10-21T09:54:00.001+08:00

I found out something about myself. I can't drink alcohol. Lolz
Just hours after drinking, red rashes appeared everywhere. Arms, torso, neck. Very ugly sight. Takes about half an hour for it to subside after that.
My blood is too sensitive with the alcohol effect apparently. And my liver is definitely working! But dunno it's good or bad. Think it's best not to drink afterall.

On a contrary note, I've realized human did a lot of stupid things before. Like me, I did stupid things a lot and sometimes regretted it. If given the chance to turn back time, maybe I would not make such moves. But then, life still goes on... and the regret shall forever remain our regret and sad memories. But at least you've lived happily before and survived through it right? And there's a whole new happy chapter waiting for you in the very near future. Yea.. always stay at a positive note and life is great afterall.

Ok enough of prep talk. Have a great day and cherish from this day onwards :)

Dragonlance Dream

2010-10-18T22:18:00.003+08:00

omg... this is the first time i had a dream on fantasy novel...
me and about 5 people (maybe consist of dwarve, kender, mage..i cannot remember) were in a dwarven mine. somehow, we knew our location was found out by the evil villains and we had to act fast, trying to find our way out from the mines. and the only way out was climbing the steep stairs down the mountain. and this mountain is so tall that it really is very very steep and open and u might just fall off at any time.
somehow, we also took heavy stuff from the mine. some bundle of tiles, i think...the group walks first and me the last. somehow i'm the leader and had to check everything is alright. and i had to cover our trail or something, so i was left far behind. never did i know that in front, there's a fork road =_= the group had walked and walked and nvr waited for me. so by the time i reached the fork road, nobody was in sight and i dunno which way they took... so i simply choose one path on the left. the road goes all the way down and i passed by some group of strangers with heavy cloak covering from head to toe. i glimpsed on them and saw it was a draconian, the body of a human but the head of a lizard. i walked quickly past them, go unnoticed. phew! i reached the village and found it's a human village...and no sight of my group people. so i knew i took the wrong turn... and headed back to the original path and choose the right one... i finally saw them and asked the kender to scout and check further down the road, how long more do we need to reach the bottom of the mountain, while we all rest at a point. i told them i saw draconians and asked them did they see them...they said they didn't...
and i woke up in my sleep...zzz and felt exhausted too... like i never really rested at all..zzz

Meat eater

2010-10-17T21:54:00.003+08:00

hmm.. last time i used to contradict myself what kind of meat i can eat and what others i won't wanna eat...
outside in this world, most of the meats are edible. say for example, ppl can eat croc, snake, dog, whale, horse and etc. well, to these ppl, they might just say, hey, it's just meat. it tastes similar with pork or chicken etc.
but i wouldn't even wanna try eating those meat, given that i'm a daredevil that would try anything.
you see, i don't eat reptiles. just don't like eating a reptile. coz they are cold blooded animal.
i don't eat other mammals such as dog, whale or horse that is out of conventional. Dogs are good animals...whales are going to extinct. horses are kind animals too...
the only struggle i've had is beef...
some ppl say they don't eat beef is because of religion. I was brought up in family who doesn't eat beef. but then sometimes i curi-curi go and eat beef when i ordered burgers, which is not good. they say that cows will have tears when they know you are going to kill it.
now i'm also kind of not eating beef anymore.. in fact, i've been trying very hard not to eat beef all this while but always failed... lol... now i'm really abstaining it. see if it works for me after awhile. :p

Mondo

2010-10-10T23:12:00.003+08:00

Mondo is one of the designers on project runway season 8.
He really is a very talented fashion designer.
He can make clothes, design something that normally everybody won't think that it's high fashion but he could make magic with it. His specialty is dealing with printed fabric.
In the recent challenge, designers were to design their own prints fabric based on their personal life.
I nearly cried when he told his story.
He designed a fabric with positive signs in it. His inspiration was that he was a HIV positive and have kept this a secret for 10 years, hiding it from everyone including his family member.
He initially didn't want to tell the story. But after that, one of the judges is curious on what kind of story that made him create that fabulous print fabric. and he told the story and he felt like he was free after telling everybody the secret behind it.
I kinda understand how he felt and really have to say "you are so brave!"
and he won the challenge! good luck to you mondo... hope you are one of the 3 finalist in the fashion week and can't wait to see ur collections on the runway. sure hope you win coz you are really really gifted in this industry :)

Idealist

Played a personality test... never realized I'm an idealist =_=
looking at the profile... idealist seem like very great... lagi =_=

Idealist are:
focused on making the world a better place for people. =_=
highly intuitive about people. They rely heavily on their intuitions to guide them, and use their discoveries to constantly search for value in life. =_=
they may be reserved in expressing emotion, they have a very deep well of caring and are genuinely interested in understanding people. =_=
do not like conflict, and go to great lengths to avoid it. If they must face it, they will always approach it from the perspective of their feelings.=_=
flexible and laid-back, until one of their values is violated. In the face of their value system being threatened, they can become aggressive defenders, fighting passionately for their cause.=_=
have very high standards and are perfectionists. Consequently, they are usually hard on themselves, and don't give themselves enough credit.=_=

they say idealist should be talented in writing... maybe i should start writing some stuff... haha

saw my friend's post on this video...
never realized that really got a lot a lot of chinese songs singing about breakups...
next ktv i wanna sing this! (if there is another "next" ktv session =_=) lol

the lyrics:
还是原来那个我
不过流掉几公升泪所以变瘦
对着镜子我承诺
迟早我会还这张脸一堆笑容
不算什么爱错就爱错
早点认错早一点解脱
我寂寞寂寞就好
这时候谁都别来安慰拥抱
就让我一个人去痛到受不了
想到快疯掉
死不了就还好
我寂寞寂寞就好
你真的不用来我回忆里微笑
我就不相信我会笨到忘不了
赖着不放掉
人本来就寂寞的
借来的都该还掉
我总会把你戒掉

还是原来那个你
是我自己做梦你有改变什么
再多的爱也没用
每个人有每个人的业障因果
会有什么什么都没有
早点看破才看得见以后
我寂寞寂寞就好
这时候谁都别来安慰拥抱
就让我一个人去痛到受不了
想到快疯掉
死不了就还好
我寂寞寂寞就好
你真的不用来我回忆里微笑
我就不相信我会笨到忘不了
赖着不放掉
人本来就寂寞的
我总会把你戒掉

weird!

2010-10-04T20:24:00.001+08:00

Hmm... today I saw a guy..walking very weirdly... or should say walking very fiercely...like a model cat-walking on runway...then saw him wearing heels... OMG...I'm seeing a lot of weird things lately... and everybody saw him also turned their heads looking at him and kinda laughed too...is he seeking too much attention? Does he really need to do that?

So Much Drama

2010-10-03T22:13:00.003+08:00

hi blog!
it's been really awhile i haven't share what's happening to me lately...
yet another drama has happened to me again :(
i am still feeling sad... and now it's more of like withdrawal symptom...haha
anyway, i am getting so fed up of all this drama...
and all i could say is, i am never ever letting myself into all this drama...never ever again!
but funny thing is, dramas seem to keep following me :S just immediately one drama has happened to me, another drama might start if I've gone ahead with it...of coz I'm not going ahead with it lah...
but it's just so funny that they just come like that...so hard to avoid... maybe this year i'm having all the "luck"...maybe this is my karma too...I'm beginning to believe that I'm much more happier with myself than with other people...
hmm... thinking of changing my image... I need a haircut badly!!

I love the way you lie

哎！老了老了。。。

Self reflect

2010-09-20T19:38:00.003+08:00

hmm... just got some self reflection yesterday... an insight of me...
I don't normally talk much to people. Whenever people try to talk to me, I would just reply with short sentences and will be quite abrupt as well. But this only applicable to people that I don't really click with or not that I think of being very close to me....
I mostly listen...and sometimes lazy to talk to people as well...sometimes it's even very difficult for me to express myself what I wanted to say
and the moment that I had the urge to talk, boy, am I super blunt. Coz I talk too bluntly and too truthful that people might not be able to accept it. You might say I'm insensitive,not being tactful, negatively speaking... but it's just some fact that I conveyed in my message...and sometimes, I really do not know when's not the right time to say all these. and it will be even worse when the person is not in the mood to listen all these...zzz
I just do hope people that have known me that I do not have ill intention of what I've spoken...of coz I would try my best to be tactful and not speak too bluntly...

just the way you are

2010-09-17T21:48:00.001+08:00

when I see ur face, there's not a thing I would change
when u smile, the whole world stops n stares for awhile
coz u r amazing, just the way u are

Pushing me away

2010-08-24T23:12:00.002+08:00

~part of Linkin Park's song "Pushing me away":

Everything falls apart even the people who never frown eventually break down
Everything has to end you'll soon find we're out of time left to watch it all unwind

Why I never walked away
Why I played myself this way
Now I see you're testing me
Pushes me away

2010-08-13T09:33:00.001+08:00

it's been a long time i havent blogged... haha... abit lazy and got nothing to write in here...
last night when i was abt to sleep, i was being questioned this: why do u trust ppl so easily?
i was like...duh? ppl start to sleep leh, give such a tough question to be answered...luckily i'm not those easily get bothered and could not sleep type and keep thinking abt finding answer...
anyway, my answer to that question is.....ppl easily get trust from me..i give 100% trust to that person at first... but as time goes by, i will evaluate whether this person should gain my trust more or should i reduce the trust on that person...but generally, ppl gain more trust from me... haha..unless that person did something that really hurt me, the trust will immediately drop to zero..
maybe u would think, why not avoid getting by not giving trust to that person? er...that's how i live my life...when i'm hurt, i will stand back up and prove that nothing in the world could beat me down... though need some time to get back to normal, at least i lived and survived..

drive of life

2010-07-30T19:06:00.001+08:00

why are we here in the first place? ever wonder that?

how can we be so sure that our lives now arent in a dreamland?
how do we know for sure?
mayb i'm now in dreamland...things that are happening... dream or reality?

2010-06-24T10:19:00.001+08:00

vichy normaderm range is a not bad product for oily skin ppl like me...controls oil and acne problem... been using it for quite sometime.. .though occasionally got some breakout coz of pms issue plus stress, still it controls the oil nicely... if not, i think my face everyday also got new pimple popping out...
ytd went over at watson's counter but the promoter was on leave... how come always on leave everytime i visit one....
so i went over to guardian.. luckily the promoter is there.. so i asked what offer they have currently...she told me the moisturizer is having promo... plus when u buy, free a bottle of cleansing gel... what i had in mind was the cleansing gel actually.. haha.. so in the end bought it to stock up my supplies...
and somemore u automatically become a member... accumulate 200 and got some free gift... and this promoter was good enough to send personal msg when there's discount on vichy products.. ooh yes.. i no need to always go there when they are going to hav 20%...

Bluntness

2010-06-19T03:04:00.002+08:00

Foolish me... I am just too blunt in front of the people that I love and in turn hurt them...
I just feel bad... If only I could take back my words...If only there's a chance...
Sometimes when I wanna take the courage to take one step forward, something just happened and make me think twice before proceeding...
Mink, what happened to ur fearlessness? the i dun care attitude? arghhh... you must find it back... you must!

You Got Me

2010-06-17T10:31:00.003+08:00

Listen to this song... nice~

You're stuck on me and my laughing eyes
I can't pretend though I try to hide
I like you, I like you

I think I felt my heart skip a beat
I'm standing here and I can hardly breathe
You got me yeah, you got me

The way you take my hand is just so sweet
And that crooked smile of yours
It knocks me off my feet

Oh I just can't get enough
How much do I need to fill me up?
It feels so good, it must be love
It's everything that I've been dreaming of

I give up, I give in, I let go, let's begin
'cause no matter what I do
Oh, my heart is filled with you

I can't imagine what it'd be like
Living each day in this life
Without you, without you

One look from you, I know you understand
This mess we're in, you know is just so out of hand

Oh, I just can't get enough
How much do I need to fill me up?
It feels so good, it must be love
It's everything that I've been dreaming of

I give up, I give in, I let go, let's begin
'cause no matter what I do
Oh my heart is filled with you

I hope we always feel this way
I know we will
And in my heart I know that you'll always stay

Oh you got me, you got me

~lyrics from "you got me" by Colbie Caillat

2010-06-06

2010-06-07T01:16:00.003+08:00

this day marks the day that I made a decision which is crucial to us...
All I wanted to say I'm not impulsive in making this decision...
I hope that I made a right decision after all the considerations and hope the better future of us.

Taking Chances

2010-06-01T17:25:00.003+08:00

Don't know much about your life
Don't know much about your world but
Don't wanna be alone tonight
On this planet they call Earth

You don't know about my past and
I don't have a future figured out
And maybe this is going too fast
And maybe it's not meant to last

But what do you say to taking chances?
What do you say to jumping off the edge?
Never knowing if there's solid ground below
Or a hand to hold or hell to pay
What do you say? What do you say?

I just wanna start again
And maybe you could show me how to try
Maybe you could take me in
Somewhere underneath your skin

What do you say to taking chances?
What do you say to jumping off the edge?
Never knowing if there's solid ground below
Or a hand to hold or hell to pay
What do you say? What do you say?

Hey now, hey, my heart is beating down
But I'm always coming back for more, yeah
There's nothing like love to pull you up
When you're lying down on the floor, babe

So talk to me, talk to me like lovers do
Yeah walk with me, walk with me like lovers do
Like lovers do

~lyrics from Celine Dion - Taking Chances

I came. I climbed. I conquered.

2010-05-23T20:43:00.002+08:00

Oooh... I finally did something I've been wanting to do since I was young...Vertical Challenge!
not that bad... climbed 63 storeys high...
and the feeling was GREAT! when u finally reach the finishing point, it looks like heaven... the view was GREAT too.... the sea, the buildings surrounding from the very top... too bad no pictures are allowed to be taken... sigh...
the even greater things was the support and the cheers!
my sis accompanied me going for this event and she had to wake up as early as me to get there....
thanks sis!
and also climbing at mid-point, u hear ppl cheering and clapping from above and saying "SOON! SOON! COME COME! ADD OIL!"... that's really motivating...
and when u reaching 60th storey, u will see the LIGHT! and u know, just a few more steps and all this will be over :)
Yay! I'm proud to say that I've done it!!!
Next up, Mount KK!!! haha...

And then there was one....

2010-05-16T15:50:00.002+08:00

email account...
ahhh... and now I have like tonnes of it... be it hotmail, yahoo or gmail...zzz
dunno which username and password for each of the email accounts... cham lor...
just started my gmail account only... becoz I got a brand new phone and need google account for start. so I got no choice to start another brand new account..
but then i just lovin' it... luckily I didn't go for iphone, like everybody else does..
didn't regret my choice of my android phone and it was within my budget too
but it was really a steep learning curve to use this phone and I was discussing my phone with my bro coz we are using the same OS system...exchanged what nice apps to use etc...
my family was commenting that i bought this phone with impulse... cannot wait for the one month contract to be over... and a bit like my bro also... haha...
I really buy things on impulse... kinda make me happy of owning it too :)

Superheroes

2010-05-09T22:23:00.002+08:00

Over the weekend went to watch Ironman 2 in cinema...
seriously, I've never missed out any Marvel or DC superheroes movie in the cinema...
except the hulk... haha.. coz I never liked the greenie and angry superpower hero...he looks more like a villain to me than hero...
Actually all superheroes movie are almost the same i guess.. There's villains, there's hot babes, there's fighting-bang! boom! pow! wham!... there's nothing unexpected in the end coz superheroes always win! if they don't win, you will be bloody disappointed right? like how can the villains win and rule over the world etc...
so, ironman 2 was no exception...
but stay tune until the very end of the film credits...thanks to the aunty sitting beside us telling us that there's still some clip at the end...it's a slight preview of what is the next superhero movie out in cinemas... not that soon though...mayb gotta wait for another year or so :)

Happy Mother's Day

2010-05-07T18:32:00.002+08:00

This Sunday is Happy Mother's Day...
so remember to give ur mom a good wish...
show that u care for her very very much :)

so, sempena this mother's day,
wanna try to write something for my mom...
though I think I can;t write a good one,
but still I try my best...=P

"How lucky I am born to someone like you,
To feel loved and cared for,
You gave me the best of everything,
You taught me how to love,
How to be a good person like you.
You were always there for me no matter what,
You give me hug when I needed comfort,
You give me wisdom when I needed advice,
You mean more than anything in this world,
You will always be in my heart,
I really love you mom,
Thank you for loving me"

Something About You

2010-05-07T18:10:00.002+08:00

I don't know what you do to me,
but everytime I'm with you,
it's a natural high
It's like rediscovering Eden,
with chocolate coated rainbows and cotton candy skies
And everytime you look my way,
I wish I had the guts to say

There's something in your eyes,
Something in your smile,
Something in the way you move me
You make me want to sing,
make me want to dance,
make me want to cry
I'm falling in love with you

I think I'll hire Cupid
He'll make you see I'm more than your friend
You'll be tossing and turning,
counting the hours till you see me again
And when we meet,
you'll kiss my hand,
and say the words I've longed to hear

There's something in your eyes,
something in your smile,
something in the way you move me
You make me want to sing,
make me want to dance,
make me want to cry
I'm falling in love with you

~lyrics from Corrinne May-Something About You

Zamina mina Zangalewa

2010-05-06T19:34:00.005+08:00

really got addicted to this song featured in Shakira's Waka Waka (Time for Africa)...
this song will be featured as World Cup song 2010 as well...
the phrase and rhythm is too catchy...

"Zamina mina eh eh
Waka waka eh eh
Zamina mina zangalewa
anawam ah ah

jungoh eh eh
jungoh eh eh"

it was originated from Cameroon...
check it out here for the history of this song...

ahhh... it's too addictive coz it's really fun singing and dancing with it :p

Opera or musical?

2010-05-05T20:16:00.007+08:00

How do you differentiate between opera or musical?
Here's what I've found out and putting it in layman terms...
Opera uses music to tell the entire story, even when two actors are speaking to each other, they use lyric and music to express...
Musical is plainly using music as background of the story... they also sing some parts of it, but also have some normal conversation speaking moments...

Recently have been a little artsy... I listened to this great Boston channel on classical music and their website has this recorded opera singing on "Madame White Snake". Feel free to listen to it...

Someday I should spend my time and money to go watch an opera...

World Cup 2010

The Cat & The Mouse

2010-04-30T17:11:00.002+08:00

Yesterday, saw a black cat and a little mousie..
The cat was eying the mouse for quite sometime and going to hunt it down...
And the kaypoh me, go and shoo the cat away...

Hmm...
After the "good cause" that I have done, I was thinking probably I shouldn't have interrupted it?
My initial intention was not wanting the cat killing the mouse...
But then come to think of it, maybe I shouldn't have interrupt the nature?
It's natural for the cat to kill the mouse...
After all, mice are dirty creatures and could be disease carrier...
Maybe the cat was hungry too and I go and ruin its dinner meal...

ok lah...The above is small issue only...
But I just love to position myself into dilemmas after what I've done in whatever the things that I do...
There's always two sides in every matter/issue...
Neither correct or wrong also...
But just in future, probably I just need to 'bo chap' in issues that is not related to me...Don't be a KAY POH CHEE!! hehe

Like The Wind

2010-04-28T19:52:00.004+08:00

I liked part of the lyrics, especially this:
來又如風離又如風或世事通通不過是場夢
translate: comes like the wind, leaves like the wind, or everything was but a dream

I really felt I was dreaming...
thanks to you :) I liked the dream...
You are just like the wind...Gone with the wind~
and I have woke up from this dream...

to my chingu: wow! u've read my mind very well leh... I was recently thinking about the "gone with the wind" part... and u send this song to me... haha thanks wor...

Classic Joke

2010-04-26T19:19:00.004+08:00

This morning me played a classic joke on anonymous caller..

Me: Hallo...
Anonymous caller: (hesitated a few seconds)喂!請問你會聽懂華語嗎?
Me: 不會.

and I put down the phone after that...haha

It's annoying for these callers to call your number...and I don't even know how they got my number...

Rösti

2010-04-24T15:12:00.004+08:00

haha... mink's first attempt at Rösti...
it's been a long time since mink cooked...
not that bad...only it looks like a giant piece of hash brown...and if I used butter, could have been a better taste :)

fyi, Rösti is a Swiss dish...so far I only saw it selling at Marche...

at first, wanted to try out cooking this and do again for next week for my sis's birthday brunch... but then, mana tahu sis today didn't go for work and I made this for her lunch...dang! no surprise already...

All Or Nothing

2010-04-23T20:21:00.003+08:00

一個人久了，是會上癮的

2010-04-22T19:28:00.002+08:00

saw a lot of friends sharing this over at fb...
so I shared it over here as well :)

一個人久了，會懶得戀愛
一個人久了，朋友會越重要
一個人久了，電話會常常忘記帶
一個人久了，就會養成一個怪癖
一個人久了，對愛情會越來越挑剔

一個人久了，除了寂寞點外還是蠻開心的
一個人久了，會慢慢變得成熟起來
一個人久了，會比以前更重視更愛父母，更重視親情
一個人久了，對所有的節日大多沒甚麼期待
一個人久了，聽到看到別人一對對的很甜蜜，心裡多少還是會有些介意

一個人久了，會喜歡買很多無謂東西，帶自己去很多很遠的地方
一個人久了，會覺得無拘無束自由自在天寬地廣
一個人久了，愛情會變得越來越不重要，取而代之的是錢和事業
一個人久了，會越來越理性，越來越現實

總之，一個人久了，即使有一點點無聊和寂寞
但是游走在自己的街道上
甚麼都可以無所謂沒有任何束縛

可是原來。。。
一個人久了，是會上癮的。。。

You Are My Exception!

2010-04-21T19:24:00.005+08:00

One of my favorite couple in "He's Just Not That Into You" movie
Alex & Gigi

Quote from the movie clip:

Gigi: A wise person once told me that if a guy wants to be with a girl, he will make it happen no matter what..
that same wise person told me that I'm a RULE, that I have to stop thinking that every guy will change... that i have to stop thinking that ...(Alex interrupts and kisses Gigi).... I'm the EXCEPTION

Alex: You are my EXCEPTION~

Awwww! Look at Alex's eyes on Gigi...so so romantic lah...

How Peculiar

2010-04-21T00:23:00.003+08:00

Funny incident just happened to me just now while i was on my way back from school...
I sat on the bus, adjusting my big fat butt on the seat...
Then this indian guy sitting next to me, was looking at me...
seeing that he was looking at me, I just sheepishly smiled at him...
he approached me by saying, "you look familiar..you've always take from this bus stop..u from that faculty?"
we talked all the way till we parted at the mrt station...

I'll never be the same
If we ever meet again
Won't let you get away
Don't ever let me go
I'll never be the same
If we ever meet again
I have so much more to say

Shutter Island

2010-04-19T18:28:00.003+08:00

It's been a long time I haven't watch movies with a good twist in the end...
To name a few of such movies, Sixth Sense and the Others...
These movies requires you to recap the previous scenes that have hinted something, and you would figure out "Oh that's why that happened over there..." some sort like that...
I was half-expecting the ending twist in Shutter Island actually...and I knew who the murderer was also... but still I liked how Martin Scorsese developed the entire movie...
how the story was told to the audience, with a little of the deeper meaning behind it and requires some thought into it...
I especially liked the last line of it:
"which is worst to live as a monster or to die as a good man"
just one phrase and it nailed the entire movie... haha
next movie in line: Ironman 2 and Ip Man 2
saw both trailers and looks worth the watch...

Creativity

2010-04-16T21:01:00.003+08:00

U gotta give kudos to these people: Designers~
Gosh... they are so creative...
was watching Project Runway on a lonely Friday night... :p
These guys on Season 7 are so innovative...
On Episode 7, these guys were tasked to design an outlook out of hardware materials...
no fabric or whatsoever... just metals, sand paper, garbage bag, plasters etc....
some are creative and some are erm.... not very nice...
just 2 days were given for their execution...
all of them are really really talented...
i wonder who won this season...

Cause and Effect

2010-04-14T18:53:00.002+08:00

here goes the philosophy:

whatever actions that you have done, whatever result that you have to bear...
the cause and the effect...
there is no such thing as having the cause with no effect...'coz it will appear to you sooner or later...when the time is ripe...
foolish actions, then you have bear with foolish result...
but then what the chinese say: 傻人有傻福 (foolish people have foolish luck)...
it maybe some blessing in disguise with the foolish act...who knows?

Major Revamp

2010-04-10T00:36:00.001+08:00

yea... finally done a major revamp of my blog and i'm liking it ^^
speaking of major revamp...
last week when i was at my hometown, i couldn't recognize my hometown anymore...
there were major construction of the highway and i can't even recognize the roads anymore..
the funny thing is even my dad also dunno how to get to the place that we wanted to go...
okie la...give some good excuse for him...
it was actually very dark and no street lights as they are revamping the whole place...
and worse was that the usual road to go to that taman was completely blocked and you need to go through from other taman area to go to that taman...haha...
sounds a bit complicated right? yea it is...
we spent like about half an hour to find that place >.<>

Cake and Sweets

2010-04-07T20:03:00.003+08:00

Over the weekend, my mom baked a butter cake for the Qing Ming festival instead of the normal steamed sponge cake that she usually make every year... It's been really really long time she hasn't bake a cake... probably the last time was when I was about 10 years old? She baked a cake with the face of a dolly for my birthday?

So, I asked her, "how come you don't need recipe book for baking the butter cake?"
yea, my mom has this old and thick recipe book, all the collections of the good recipes that she collected throughout the years...Anyway, the question that I asked shows that I really don't know about bakery... Butter cake is the most basic cake to make... and after all, the recipe is so simple that anybody also can remember...

To bake a 1 pound of butter cake, all u need is
1 pound of butter (454 grams) which is equivalent to 2 pieces of the butter
1 pound of sugar
1 pound of self-raising flour
10 eggs
That's all!

You mix the butter and sugar until all are melted...
then slowly add 1 egg at a time to the batter and plus the flour...
then just put into the oven to bake.. about 180 degrees Celcius...
So simple! and smells damn nice too!

But did you know that this rich butter cake is so sinful? Imagine you having one piece of this cake, containing so much sugar....If you had this cake in icing, OMG! even more sugar consumption...I'm so thankful that my mom doesn't bake cake that often, if not, my body size would be twice the size of what I'm having right now... haha

Clueless

2010-03-31T19:45:00.001+08:00

What's up with me recently?
Simply clueless...
Was it the pms thingy that affected me? (must have been...having a great appetite lately...zzz...gonna gain weight soon...sigh)

been bloody emotional these days...
it's like almost anything could lift me up...
and after that almost anything can let me down...
and very sudden too...
what is wrong???

I'm so clueless until I dunno how to describe this...
but I could have found out why...
there's been a lot of stuff that make me worried are kept within me...
I never disclose to other ppl, not even to my dearest and closest ppl...
probably it's been a year I've been like this??
yea.. something happened a year ago that changed a little bit of my attitude towards life...

I don't disclose things because I do not like ppl beside me seeing me feeling unhappy...
or rather, my things could have caused them feeling unhappy or worried...
rather I'm the listener... to listen to their troubles and problems...
that's why i've always put up a cheerful smile...
to cheer ppl up...

everytime I see them, I feel happy...
It seems like all my trouble has gone when I'm with them...
at that moment in time...
I felt comfortable with them...
I felt happy with them...
I yearn to be with them all the time...
But then, life's not that simple...
I have to come back to reality soon...

Counting down the days that I'm gonna be with them and also the days that I'm back to reality...
Sigh~~~

when movies turn real

2010-03-30T22:53:00.003+08:00

was bloody disturbed by the movie "kidnapper"...
thanks to my nephew who introduced this movie...zzz
i was too agitated watching this entire movie in the cinema...coz of how the kidnapper treated the poor kid...
though the acting, directing are so-so... but it's just the actions that are disturbing to me...
coz it could have happen to any kid in real life... and it can be real....
that's too much for me...
okay, i may have recently watched movies in a too serious matter...
i also dunno why... i kinda engaged myself into the movie...
i would feel sad, agitated, happy, frustrated, etc for the characters in the movie....
if movies were real, i sure hope it's a happy ending...

the night the city sleeps

2010-03-28T16:08:00.008+08:00

Earth Hour... 27 March 2010..8.30pm-9.30pm

the night the city supposed to sleep...

wouldn't it be amazing to see the busy city life sleeps? in darkness...not totally... but at least with dimmed environment?

wouldn't it be nice when u can gaze to the sky, watching the sky in total darkness? and especially in a busy city life?

maybe i was expecting too much that night...the more that u expect, the more disappointed that u get...sigh...

i couldn't even do the simple magic trick, calling out "alakazam!" and poof! off went with the lights... haha...

probably there wasn't any awareness about this Earth Hour thingy... or people couldn't even be bothered? how to save the earth with such attitude??

however, as a consolation to my disappointment, i was able to see my stars in the sky while walking back home...

awesome! at least better than nothing for the night, right? haha

Blood Type & Personality

2010-03-26T23:33:00.001+08:00

There's this general idea that your personality is determined by the blood type...

So here's a quiz that I watched it from a Korean comedy show, "My Boyfriend is Type B".

If you caught your spouse cheating on you and was in action with the other person in a room, what would you do?
a. Rush in to the room and caught them red-handed
b. Holding the door knob and thinking properly what you should do
c. Peek through the window and see what they are doing
d. Call the authorities and catch them (just think that it's illegal to have infidelity la... i think Koreans still follow the old tradition)

So, which one u picked?

Answers straight up...

Choose answer a. are O blood type: the impulsive type
Choose answer b. are A blood type: the cautious type
Choose answer c. are AB blood type: the shy type? (forgot what the girl said in the movie)
Choose answer d. are B blood type: the selfish type

haha... is this quiz accurate for you? well, mine is quite accurate... =p

Here's also some of the comic strips about the different blood type posted by another blogger DonnaDaritan... it's cute... some are accurate for me, some aren't... hehe... enjoy!

The Heart Asks Pleasure First

2010-03-17T18:32:00.002+08:00

I've been practicing this piece for the past weeks... and today I've finally got into the in depth of playing this -- the emotion part...

Totally surprised myself, I nearly cried when playing... My heart was following and singing together with what I'm playing... Woah... serious! I've never felt my heart with this sad kind of feeling before...

Here's how I interpret the music piece... There are the lyrics played at the right hand, which sings what the heart wants to express... while the accompaniments played at both hands are at the background of this whole piece, which I interpret it as the things that are happening in life...

In life, there are many duties and responsibilities to be fulfilled, rules to be followed...But do we listen to what our heart wants to say? It's confusing when you need to deal with the rational side of you and the feelings from the heart... that's when I cried, when I finally understand, sometimes life doesn't allow us to hear what our heart wants, even though you can hear it shouting and expressing to you... Do we ever asks what our heart wants amidst the happenings in life? But then, the heart never gives up to express its feelings even though we choose to ignore it...sad, isn't it?

The Heart Asks Pleasure First... what a suitable title for this piece...This was written by Michael Nyman in 1993. I have to salute to him for writing this fantastic piece of work... It was the OST for the movie "The Piano". Enjoy this master piece that I've embedded... And I'm gonna master this piece of work too! Good luck to me!

IT fair in Singapore

2010-03-14T19:32:00.003+08:00

Yes, my first time IT fair in Singapore...
it was so so so many people during the fair...
exhibitors are almost up to 6 levels...
good lord, so many people in almost every level of it...
horrible experience for me... coz i was mostly sandwiched by the people surrounding me...it's like have to find holes to squeeze through... and my god, if you are at the wrong lane, u are gonna stuck there like forever...
luckily the place got air-con and still got some air to breathe... if not i would have fainted straightaway on that spot...
bought a portable HDD over there... but then what's up with the online warranty registration huh? keep saying i entered the wrong serial number...sienz! i'm gonna call up dunno-who to ask about it...
next time, never ever try to go there on a weekend, unless u've got a really important stuff to buy over there...
