Blue Eyes Blue


Eric Clapton

So emo, but so sweet just the same. 

Just the perfect Friday night tune. Good night world, love.

Wooo, Guess What I Found


It's Time - Imagine Dragons

Pretty cool, I like! And, Imagine Dragons?? How cute is that!

I Am A Genius

It's something only one person in this world will understand. Or at least understand it the way I want it to be understood. And who else would it be, but me. =)

Princess Dragon who spits fire and eats ice cream.

Hahahaha.

The influence of listening to Light&Easy, one gets into the whole "a cuddle would be nice" mood, especially in such weather.

Hey - Fatima Rainey

Two consecutive good days. Nails are cracking, insufficient something. Rain again. Birthdays. Aspirations?? Stamina. Yeah, could do with an increase in stamina for sure. More h2o and more decent sleep would work too.

If only answers fell from the sky too. Good days.

It's Raining Outside

And all I want to do is lie in bed and drift between thinking and falling asleep.

Here's a song dedication to everyone. Hello World...


Come Home - Faith Hill

[Faith Hill]
Hello world
Hope you're listening
Forgive me if I’m young
For speaking out of turn
There’s someone I’ve been missing
I think that they could be
The better half of me
They’re in the wrong place trying to make it right
But I’m tired of justifying
So I say to you...

[Chorus]
Come home
Come home
Cause I’ve been waiting for you
For so long, so long
And right now there's a war between the vanities
But all I see is you and me
The fight for you is all I’ve ever known
So come home...

[Faith Hill]
I get lost in the beauty
Of everything I see
The world ain’t as half as bad
As they paint it to be
When all the sons, all the daughters
Stopped to take it in
Then hopefully the hate subsides and the love can begin
It might start now
But maybe I’m just dreaming out loud
But until then

[Chorus]
Come home
Come home
Cause I’ve been waiting for you
For so long, so long
And right now there's a war between the vanities
But all I see is you and me
The fight for you is all I’ve ever known
So come home...

[Bridge]
Everything I can’t be
Is everything you should be
And that’s why I need you here

Everything I can’t be
Is everything you should be
And that’s why I need you here
So hear this now

[Chorus]
Come home
Come home
Cause I’ve been waiting for you
For so long, so long
And right now there's a war between the vanities
But all I see is you and me
The fight for you is all I’ve ever known,
Ever known

Come home...
Come home...



"I get lost in the beauty of everything I see, the world ain't half as bad as they paint it out to be."

Hello Week!

Sunday was pretty cool, all nice and sweet. If it is not too much to ask for, can Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday and Saturday be cool, nice and sweet too?

Maybe that's a bit too much to ask for.

Can Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday and Saturday be either cool, nice or sweet then?

Thank you very much!

Thursday Was My Favorite Day This Week

For sure.

Today was just full of madness. Completely. And entirely. In a bad sorta way. =(

But it's okay, tomorrow is a brand new day. Besides, we need days like this to remind us that life is not always rainbows and butterflies, not always peachy. And all the more we learn to appreciate the good things in life, the small quiet pleasant moments, the laughs, the simple stuff.

Could do with something sweet, like ice cream.

I wish... But I am a big girl now, and I know not all wishes come true. But it's nice to wish anyway.


In Dreams - Lena Park; was thinking about this song as I was driving home earlier.

Gotta do massive some clearing up - mentally and physically.

Tomorrow is a brand new day! =)

Hi, My Name Is

Borderline of things. The scary and exciting bits. Take the leap or turn back and take the route tried and tested before. But who's to guarantee that the same path, is safe still.

I Think They Drugged My Lamb Curry

So sleepy. People will believe what they want to believe. Like it or not. Good night world. Sweet dreams you all. Lots of love.

My Exact Sentiments

 


Ever wonder about what he's doing
How it all turned to lies
Sometimes I think that it's better to never ask why

Where there is desire
There is gonna be a flame
Where there is a flame
Someone's bound to get burned
But just because it burns
Doesn't mean you're gonna die
You've gotta get up and try try try
Gotta get up and try try try
You gotta get up and try try try

Eh, eh, eh

Funny how the heart can be deceiving
More than just a couple times
Why do we fall in love so easy
Even when it's not right

Where there is desire
There is gonna be a flame
Where there is a flame
Someone's bound to get burned
But just because it burns
Doesn't mean you're gonna die
You've gotta get up and try try try
Gotta get up and try try try
You gotta get up and try try try

Ever worried that it might be ruined
And does it make you wanna cry?
When you're out there doing what you're doing
Are you just getting by?
Tell me are you just getting by by by

Where there is desire
There is gonna be a flame
Where there is a flame
Someone's bound to get burned
But just because it burns
Doesn't mean you're gonna die
You've gotta get up and try try try
Gotta get up and try try try
You gotta get up and try try try
Gotta get up and try try try
Gotta get up and try try try
You gotta get up and try try try
Gotta get up and try try try

You gotta get up and try try try
Gotta get up and try try try

Worlds Apart

That's how big the difference is. Trying to work on my performance review but am taking a break from it since I could do with a positivity top up before continuing.

She talks like a young little lady with her American accent, which I totally layan because it's just too cute. She's still tiny but taller now. Sparkly eyes and totally plays the part of an Energizer bunny - my uncle said, that's what people mean when they say, "Your youth is your power."  

So I am old(er) lah, cause there was no way of keeping up with this little cute thing...



She talks non-stop now. And she's not scared of strangers anymore. She goes on babbling and babbling about almost everything. She calls my soft toys 'bed toys' and when she saw my earring collection, she said, "Do you wear all that on your ear?!"

Majority of her things are pink too. Adorable maximus.

There was a moment earlier when I was trying to get work done and she was playing some games on her Daddy's iPad on my bed and when she noticed I was trying to work, she said, "I will go play elsewhere now..."

0_0

She's only 4 by the way.

Made me do a double take and wonder where on Earth that came from. Seemed impossible that that tiny body and that young mind could produce that level of maturity. It's true eh, we can learn a lot from kids.

So that's my not-so-much-of-a-baby anymore baby cousin sister, Amanda! =)

This Was Playing On The Radio Awhile Ago


Alesso & Dirty South - City of Dreams
One comment on another youtube link read, "Perfect song for after a break up".
I like anyway, it's catchy!

Counting The Days

It's almost the end of 2012 already, have you noticed?

So much so I keep referring to events that happened this year as "last year".. until I notice, no, it's still this year! In all honesty, I've been feeling a little sentimental and a little apprehensive about what the future holds.

This time last year...

Today, was well spent with Mandy as we shopped, and talked, and walked, and shopped. I've missed days like this. Whee! =)

Need. To. Start. Wearing. All. The. Heels. I. Buy.

On a side note.

I am not the brightest bulb, but some things I get quickly. Like, for instance, if my presence is not welcomed. I don't like being imposing. But I also understand how it's difficult to tell someone "Hey, you're not particularly welcomed so back off already." No decent human being would ever bring themselves to say that.

So it's okay, it's a good thing I read things like this fast enough.

So speaking of heels, I bought a new floral pair today from Payless. I am hoping to pair it with whatever ensemble I am gonna be wearing for tomorrow.

And speaking of tomorrow, baby cousin is arrivinnnnnng! And so is Apple, arriving on Monday with some Bombay Sapphire perhaps.

So quickly, it's Sunday again. The 7-day holiday week flew by quite literally. I am not particularly anticipating work on Monday but I suppose being occupied with work sometimes works well. It prevents the mind from wandering to areas where no answers can be found.

Shall attempt to do some vintage floral nail art later!

Often Enough In Life

I question my motivations in the things I do. Whether before or after, that's beside the point. But why? is the question I always catch myself asking myself.

And sometimes, asking why paralyses me. I stop and I don't try. And sometimes, asking why makes me feel stupid for even trying in the first place. So, which is better? To prevent, or to cure? You tell me.

Then again, people say, you should never regret things in life for they all happen for a reason. If it didn't quite turn out the way we expected it to, well, at least you learn from it. If it turned out better than you had expected it to, then yay!

So right, hmmm. Yup, I am confused myself.

Maybe if you knew what you wanted in life, then it wouldn't be an issue? I suppose.

Baby cousin coming to town this weekend. She must be pretty big now, can't wait to see her. Wonder where will they be put up though.

Was at the yacht club earlier. Didn't seem like a massive turn up. Thirty plus boats it seems, but it sure didn't seem like thirty at all. More like ten. But numbers don't lie do they?

The good thing about my new lappie is that I can lug it around and not strain a single muscle. =) Treated myself to some sashimi for lunch and now it's time to catch up on the to do list and maybe perhaps some reading too.


1,2,3,4 - Lee Hi real name Lee Ha Yi (from Wikipedia)

My fascination for Kpop has to be partially due to the fact that I don't understand the language and therefore it doesn't bother me to not understand the lyrics and just enjoy the music.

Why oh why's... Things to ponder upon.

A Bit Too Chao Da-ed

In my world, there's plenty of contrary to popular belief. Last night in Krabi. With lots of love.

No Matter

The who how why what when. Confuses my brain and it hurts. On the bright side, Krabi! ;)

November Eleventh

I think I'll be remembering you. For good reasons.



There's so much more to learn, so much more to understand, so much to grasp.. But, well. There shouldn't be a but, and there isn't a but. Just felt like saying but - as if to give space for an argument though there really isn't any because the statement was a fact.

I am afraid of growing up. Too many things I feel I have to learn and overcome.

Nonetheless, I thank God for every single person in my life. For the bad ones too, because if it weren't for them, there'll be lesson that I would not have learnt. And for all the strangers who turned friends, close friends, best friends, people whom I trust with my entire life, I thank God for them.

Because of you guys, growing up seems less daunting. /heart

Krabi tomorrow; fair weather please pretty please, time to work on that tan! =)

Three Times Lucky

Hi Rain...



Really. No kidding. Epic timing for all the wrong decisions, at least just today. I don't think that sentence was coherent even.

Not too sure about the lucky bit. Despite all the good about today, I am drained.

But for all the good, thank you.

When You Don't Listen

That's when shit happens.

But to be fair, sometimes, shit happens because you listen.

So I guess the general idea is to listen and be smart about it.

You Still Don't Get It Do You?

You was someone specific, probably not you you. But yeah.

So the gist of it is, if I want something, I'll work for it. If I want it really badly, heck I'll work damn hard for it. But just because it's something that you want, and you think I can be of help, doesn't mean I'll do it, even if I can.

So yes. Go away. Or do it yourself.

On a brighter note, today was pretty decent. Decent implies productivity and quality of interaction with people. Actually, work was probably crap, but everything else made up for it.

I should probably read up on ways to build up immunity for until it's time to fly for Krabi. So freaking many sick people. /shudders

Get well soon sick ones! Healthy ones, stay healthy! Love.

Strange

Nothing seems too right, but nothing seems too wrong either.

Breathe in, breathe out. Tomorrow is a brand new day.

Everyone seems to be falling sick. Germy(s) stay away!

Krabi in 7 days!

Sunday, November 4

Sometimes

I don't understand why I deliberately find reasons to make myself upset. And sometimes, I don't understand why I am happy for no apparent reason either.


Fishtail braids success!  

And hello Alex, have you made any new inferences about me that you never knew prior to reading my blog? Tsk tsk.. :P

Rain whole day, he who likes the rain too.

I Wish

It would stop raining. So that I can go out to play.

A lot of things in life is beyond our control. But what we can do, is to live our lives to our best. Because making the best out of what we have is within our control.

"Understanding minds, empowering lives" - give this a thought if you have some time to spare!

The rain though, is beyond mine.
