NOT READY TO MAKE NICE - DIXIE CHICKS.

Forgive, sounds good.
Forget, im not sure i could.
They say time heals everything
But im still waiting

Im through with doubt
There's nothing left for me to figure out
I've paid a price
And i'll keep paying.

I'm not ready to make nice
I'm not ready to back down
I'm mad as hell
and I dont have the time to go
round and round and round
Its too late to make it right
Probably wouldnt if i could
'Cause Im mad as hell
Cant bring myself to do what it is you think i should

I know you said
Cant you just get over it
It turned my whole world round
And I kind of like it.

these few days are just blurring by.
but i am happy happy happy!
i get to go for Fr Keane's dinner at Orchard Hotel. :D
its like only after i semi-'retired' myself from church activities then all the fun stuff arrives ):

commonssss.

im lost.
but who will understand?
no matter what you do,
it goes *poof* in the end.
i would say whats on my mind
but you dont listen anyway.

shall remain optimistic.

i got a pocketful of sunshine
the sun on my side
take me for a ride
i smile up to the sky
and know i'll be alright.

and nobody cries
there's only butterflies.

VIOLET HILL - COLDPLAY

Was a long and dark December
From the rooftops I remember
There was snow
White snow

Clearly I remember
From the windows they were watching
While we froze down below

When the future's architectured
By a carnival of idiots on show
You'd better lie low

If you love me
Won't you let me know?

Was a long and dark December
When the banks became cathedrals
And the fog
Became God

Priests clutched onto bibles
And went out to fit their rifles
And the cross was held aloft

Bury me in honor
When I'm dead and hit the ground
A love back home unfolds

If you love me
Won't you let me know?

I don't want to be a soldier
With the captain of some sinking ship
With snow, far below

So if you love me
Why'd you let me go?

I took my love down to violet hill
There we sat in snow
All that time she was silent still

ELLO EVERYBODY.
i learnt 2 things today :

beef can make you grow taller!
i love High-calcium Low-fat pork. (shant tell you why :P)

ORD : 020808.
i am having mixed feelings.

more luvley songs!

JORDIN SPARKS - ONE STEP AT A TIME.

hurry up, and wait
so close but so far away
everything that you've always dreamed of
close enough for you to taste
but you just cant touch

you wanna show the world,
but no one knows your name yet
wonder when and where and
how you're gna make it.
you know you can
if you get the chance
in your face and the door keeps slamming
now you're feeling more and more
frustrated
now you're getting all kinds of impatient

we live and we learn
take one step at a time
there's no need to rush
its like learning to fly
or falling in love
its gonna happen when its
supposed to happen
that we find the reasons why
one step at a time.

you believe,
and you doubt.
you're confused
you've got it all figured out
everything that you've always wished for
could be yours, should be yours,
would be yours
if only they knew

when you cant wait any longer
but there's no end in sight
when you need to find the strength
its your faith that makes you stronger
the only way we get there
is one step at a time.

i think this song reflects alot of how im feeling.
we only have 98 days more and even less than that to finish everything.
its like i want it to be faster so it would hurry up end.
but i want it to be slower so i can be better prepared.
either way, there's no point in worrying,
cos its gna come and happen, one way or another.
and we just gotta trust that everything would be alright in the end.

Everything would be okay in the end.
If its not okay, its not the end.

shit.
i told myself i was gna blog/surf for a while and then go shower before 6pm.
and now its like 6.05 and im still blogging.
aye, when are you gna wake up!
not much time left eh.
you DO know that people who get 6 or 7 for Os are like those who started studying like, during the june holidays.
dont be a slacker!

and i also want to have a blog with manymany pictures of various expeditions to the outside world.
but sadly, i am a boring/anti-social person
who likes to stay at home cooped up by myself
and i dont make small talk!
that makes me doubly boring company.
so yeah,
aint gna happen.

yes, so thats all.
ima go do my hw now.

yesterday's creative writing thing was cool.
it turned into music appreciation class.
we are told to use song lyrics in our compos to leave a lasting impression on the marker.
whoopeee.
my blog is educational! :D
i like ms poon.
she marked my compo and put 'good job!' on it! goodness knows, how long its been since i received nice remarks for compos.

ah, i wna go hunting for turtle nests in the middle of the night on some beach in Mexico!
future bf needs to be someone who wants to do that with me.
alas, you always like, never get to spend the rest of your life with your 'perfect' guy,
its always the person you least expect, the one you are highly irritated with at first but end up falling in love with.
its always like that.

me love emo songs.

WHAT ABOUT NOW - DAUGHTRY

shadows fill an empty heart
as love is fading
from all the things that we are
but are not saying
can we see beyond the scars
and make it to the dawn?

change the colours of the sky
and open up to
the ways you made me feel alive
the ways i loved you
for all the things that never died
to make it through the night
love will find you.

what about now
what about today?
what if you're making me
all i was meant to be
what if our love
never went away
what if its lost behind
words we could never find
baby, before its too late
what about now

the sun is breaking in your eyes
to start a new day
this broken heart can still survive
with a touch of your grace
shadows fade into the light
i am here by your side
love will find you

now that we're here
now that we've come this far
just hold on
there's nothing to fear
for i am right beside you
for all my life
im yours.

i found this quote in this book i was reading, cant rmb whats the name.

" Often that which we fear most births the resolve that spurs us onto altitudes
we could not have achieved had we continued walking on our customary paths. "


:D


and also, i love deathcab for cutie.
here are two of their songs.

I will follow you into the dark


Love of mine, someday you will die
but i'll be close behind
i will follow you into the dark

No blinding light, or tunnels to gates of white
just our hands clasped so tight
waiting for the hint of a spark

If Heaven or Hell decide
that they both arent satisfied
illuminate the 'NO's on their vacancy signs
if there's no one beside you
when your soul embarks
i will follow you into the dark

You and me
have seen everything to see
from Bangkok to Calvary
and the soles of your soles
are all worn down
the time for sleep is now
its nothing to cry about
we'll hold each other tight
in the blackest of rooms

I will possess your heart

How i wish you could see the potential
the potential of you and me
its like a book elegantly bound
but in a language you cant read just yet

You gotta spend some time, love
you gotta spend some time
with me
and i know you'll find love
i will possess your heart

There are days
when outside your window
i see my reflection as i slowly pass
and i long for this mirrored perspective
when we'll be lovers, lovers at last.

You reject my advances and desperate pleas
i wont let you
let me down so easily, so easily.


and howard called me " a woman of few words" today.
i like that.
its like im some myterious ninja/samurai girl :D

BOYS LIKE GIRLS - THUNDER

today's a winding road that's taking me
to places i dont want to go
today in the blink of an eye
im holding onto something
and i do not know why
i tried

i tried to read between the lines
i tried to look into your eyes
i want a simple explanation
for what im feeling inside
i gotta find a way out
maybe there's a way out

your voice is the soundtrack of my summer
do you know you're unlike any other?
you'll always be my thunder, i said.
your eyes are the brightest of colours
i dont wanna ever love another
you'll always be my thunder
so bring on the rain
and bring on the thunder

today is a winding road
tell me where to start
and something i dont know
today im on my own
i cant move a muscle
and i cant pick up the phone

and now im itching for the tall grass
and longing for the breeze
i need to step outside
just to see if i can breathe

yeah im walking on a tightrope
im wrapped up in vines
i think we'll make it out
you just gotta gimme time
strike me down with lightning
i wanna feel you with my veins
i wanna let you know how much i feel your pain

{ sera : i wna watch hellboy2 ): }
