Fine like Wine and Sweeter than Sweets

I’ve ordered some rain for tomorrow
The sky will be sunny but wet

Let me sing a sad refrain
Of broken hearts who love in vain
And if my song can start you crying
I’m happy

Let me croon a lowdown blues
That lifts you out of your seat
If my blues can reach your shoes
And start you tapping your feet
I’m happy

Let me sing of Dixie’s charms
Of cotton fields and mammy’s arms
And if my song can make can make you homesick
I’m happy

Warheads Anyone?

Masticated on Warheads today. Superb. It was once Sis's formula for staying awake during drainy lectures. I placed an order for a brand new pair of eyewear yesterday. On a whim, I decided to settle for a full-frame design. I used to think never will I go for such designs since they make you look like a... nincompoop. This is a nice word I learnt recently. If you want to know what it means literally, it is silly. The colour scheme's slightly towards orange colour. I thought I was going to settle for maroon colour just like the previous two times I went to the optician! But still, it bears tiny resemblance, colour-wise, to my former spectacles. Somehow, it just gives me a refreshing feel, though it isn't much of a candy to the eye when I first saw it.

Learning Chinese has never been real fun till recently. I'm starting to more exposure into such useful materials which hopefully will aid in helping me get a desirable grade next week. Though I must admit, I can't master that wide pool of interesting Chinese vocabularies out there, I can assure you, when you do something put real commitment, real hard work, real effort... and you will start to see things in a whole new, different light. Because one must bear in mind, when life throws lehmans, make lemonade. Alternatively, you can choose Ben & Jerry's. Here are some pictures. Don't really love to post them because it is troublesome. But once in a blue moon, I will be happy to oblige. Ok, first up...


Brawny takes on a new form!



9 years of friendship. And counting. xD




Ah, yes, hard time taking a picture with kelly.




If you ever see me wearing spectacles, it only means one thing: get serious.

We look like we just struck a car lottery!

Byes.

Relax, Recharge, Rewind

Finished one set of Chinese trial paper just a while back. Hmm, for no reason, I feel like sharing my favourite song with you all. I first heard this 2 years back and it is always at the top of my chartlist. It is a ballad. One of my favourite genre besides Jazz. So, enjoy. (:



And for those who do bother to read the lyrics. Here goes:

While she lays sleeping
I stay out late at night and play my songs
And sometimes all the nights can be so long
And it’s good when I finally make it home
All alone
While she lays dreaming
I touch her face across the silver light
I see her dreams that drift up to the sky
And she wakes up to my kiss
And I say it’s alright
And I hold her tight
And she believes in me
I’ll never know just what she sees in me
I told her someday
If she was my girl, I could change the world
With my songs,
But I was wrong
But she has faith in me
And so I go on trying faithfully
Forever in my heart she will remain
And I hope and pray, I will
find away, find away
While she lays waiting
I ask myself why do I hurt her so
What calls me on along this lonely road
Why don’t I turn around and head back home
Where I belong
While she lays crying
For she knows how my heart is ripped in two
I’m tom between the things that I should do
She deserves it all and I’d
give it if I could
God, her love is true
[ Chorus ]
While she lays sleeping
While she lays sleeping for me


To spice up things a little... I'm sure most of you would be familiar with the next video, if you have been watching Crayon Shinchan since childhood. He is so cute!



Byes.

Good Day

I came home a happier person because today is the last of the the exams! E maths paper was alright except for a few questions which, even after cranking my brains, I can't solve. Anyway, I felt a little light-headed halfway through the maths paper. I thought I would plonk my head down onto the table and doze off anytime. Right then, I felt as though I was some kind of wave and everything I saw was spinning. Thank god I didn't faint. HMT paper was fairly well done too. Much better than normal Chinese, of which I didn't complete most of the questions. At least, I kept to the time limit for HMT paper. O levels Chinese is round the corner, in less than 4 weeks' time. Which means much of my energy will be diverted to buffing up on Chinese and having a good grasp of things.

For the time being, I will make do with watching Housebunny with Amelia, Cheryl, Kelly and Melissa later. O yea, and a few updates I think I should tell you guys about.

-Mum bought me a McLauren car kit that was driven by Kimi Raikkonen in 2006. He has since switched to a Ferrari.

-My Anpanman collection has been widened with Sis's much appreciated gift of the shower foam.

- DHL balloon has since flown to France. Looks like I will have to migrate there in no time.

Byes.

End of My Tethers

they say if there's a will, there is a way. But sometimes Will doesn't bring you very far. No it ain't of no help at all. what else do I do next?




I was thinking, the next time you come to the end of the rope, tie a knot... and hang on. But the matter is, I don't know how to do that.
