只要笑一笑,没什么事情过不了

Oh well.. You guessed it? I rewatched the show. Sonria Pasta

Just ‘coz I was too bored at home on a Sunday afternoon, when I missed my 1pm appointment. So pai seh!

But well.. it was a choice wisely made. Why? Got motivated by it yet again. =)

I believe I can do it. Take a step back, face it bravely. 只要笑一笑,没什么事情过不了.

Colour blind

Colour Blind

Written by Darius Danesh and Peter Glenister

Feelin’ blue, while I’m trying to forget the feeling that I miss you
Feelin’ green, when the jealousy swells and it won’t go away in dreams

Feelin’ yellow, I’m confused inside
A little hazy but mellow when I feel your eyes on me

Feelin’ fine! Sublime!
When that smile of yours creeps into my mind

Oh oh

Nobody told me you’d feel so good
Nobody said you’d be so beautiful
Nobody warned me about your smile
You’re the light, you’re the light
When I close my eyes
I’m colour blind

You make me colour blind

Feelin’ red, when you spend all your time with your friends and not me instead
Feelin’ black, when I think about all the things that I feel I lack

Feelin’ jaded, when it’s not gone right
All the colours have faded, then I feel your eyes on me

Feelin’ fine! Sublime!
When that smile of yours creeps into my mind

Mm mm

Nobody told me you’d feel so good
Nobody said you’d be so beautiful
Nobody warned me about your smile
You’re the light, you’re the light
When I close my eyes
I’m colour blind

You make me colour blind

Blinded by the light you shine, the colours fade completely
Blinded by you every time, I feel your smile defeat me

I’m colour blind
I just can’t deny this feeling

Nobody told me you’d feel so good
Nobody said you’d be so beautiful
Nobody warned me about your smile
You’re the light, you’re the light
When I close my eyes
I’m colour blind

Nobody told me you’d feel so good
Nobody said you’d be so beautiful
Nobody warned me about your smile
You’re the light, you’re the light
When I close my eyes
I’m colour blind

You make me colour blind

I’m colour blind

tired.

I guess it would have been boring if my posts had been about how mundane my life had been, how much stress I was facing at work, how boring my days were when they were just home > work > home everyday.

But seriously, Oct/Nov are hectic months @ work. Many projects on hand, and learning new stuff at the same time. So busy that the hours passed very fast, so busy that I only want to be back home as early as I could and let my brain cells rest. Any after-work activities were rejected. I’m free after work yes, but sorry I don’t feel like going anywhere else other than home. =) Though I’m usually gaming till 12+ 1am, at least I’m in the comfort of my home. A place where I feel most at ease at night.

Oh well.. Oct is almost coming to an end. Blogging has become more of a blog-only-when-very-free thingy, than of a habit that I used to have. Having faced the computer screen for long hours at work, the only thing I feel like doing at night is to play some games =) But don’t worry, I’ll try to update as often as I can.

Actually have got photos in my phone, but I’ve yet transferred them out. That gotta wait I guess.. till I’m in the mood =|

PMS if you call it, had been in quite a lousy mood for the past week. And yes, that includes today though it had been quite happening on the mahjong table.

Tired. In quite a few aspects. Physically tired, which all started from the cup of teh-si I had. Eyes in pain! Mentally tired. You know it. Not pushing further for what I want, is that considered as giving up? 不甘心.. but what can I do about it? Do the obvious hint that says “This is what I’d been feeling all along”? Sigh.. Taking a step (probably it’s many steps) back. Tired to keep thinking about it. Tired from trying to think on how to get my point across. Freaking tired.

Dick Lee’s 30th Anniversary Concert 2004

edited 15 Oct 3pm
Okok I know this post had been up since last Thurs, but I’m adding in captions only now. Simply because I had been busy (mapling + watching House) =D

Saw these videos months back from somewhere, slipped my mind to post them here. Until JK sent me the link on Thurs. So here goes.

All these are excerpts from Dick Lee’s concert dvd. Simply so hilarious.

Hossan Leong’s snippet

Dick Lee himself

Count On Me Singapore – Dick Lee’s edited version (He’s the composer by the way)

We Are Singapore (He’s the composer as well)

Rasa Sayang! For those of you who took part in the mass Line Dance in 2004, this song definitely brings back memories! Remember the time spent rehearsing for this World Record. =)

Quarter-life crisis?

Ok fine.. I’ve got no updates for my Friday‘s post. Had a nice dinner with Aunt SY! Didn’t know there’s Pizza Hut @ Greenridge. wahahhaha! The other bday gal didn’t like me! boo! She loved my glass of Pepsi more than me! I think I took some photos of her enjoying Cousin Faith’s icecream. Somewhere in my phone. Wait till I upload it here. =D

Sat.. What did I do? Oh! BBQ @ Lee Wei’s house! Thanks LW’s mum & dajie for helping us prepare the food! Thanks LW for organising! 2nd year running. Last year we had Four Leaves’ cake @ Spizza Killiney branch. This year we had Chocolate Mousse cake from Emicakes! Nice! Had too much food, that we went up to her house trying to clear them all =

Sunday was restday as usual.

Monday night was bad. Real bad. So bad that my eyes were still weary & swollen on Tues morning. So bad that my eyes still pained on Tues night.

This morning was bad. None said, but all cleared by lunch.

Have been trying to logon to my office mailbox for the past minutes, but the loading is much slower than usual. How to get work done? =

Have been feeling pretty down these days, with the many things all happening (probably not, but I’m now reading between all the lines that have been said) at the same time. Trying to untie the knot within myself. Answers I’m giving myself, to questions that I’ve had for quite sometime. Leaving things as it is, not forcing things to happen my way, but to find a light that can bright up my path.

Quarter-life crisis. Oh when will it all end?

Way Back Into Love

This has just got to be my favourite song at the moment.

Fish & Pin Guan’s version
There’s a chinese version, but can’t seem to find it.

And these! are excerpts from the show that the song originated from! Music & Lyrics.

Way Back Into Love
– Hugh Grant feat. Drew Barrymore

I’ve been living with a shadow overhead
I’ve been sleeping with a cloud above my bed
I’ve been lonely for so long
Trapped in the past, I just can’t seem to move on

I’ve been hiding all my hopes and dreams away
Just in case I ever need em again someday
I’ve been setting aside time
To clear a little space in the corners of my mind

All I want to do is find a way back into love
I can’t make it through without a way back into love
Oh oh oh

I’ve been watching but the stars refuse to shine
I’ve been searching but I just don’t see the signs
I know that it’s out there
There’s got to be something for my soul somewhere

I’ve been looking for someone to shed some light
Not just somebody just to get me throught the night
I could use some direction
And I’m open to your suggestions

All I want to do is find a way back into love
I can’t make it through without a way back into love
And if I open my heart again
I guess I’m hoping you’ll be there for me in the end

There are moments when I don’t know if it’s real
Or if anybody feels the way I feel
I need inspiration
Not just another negotiation

All I want to do is find a way back into love
I can’t make it through without a way back into love
And if I open my heart to you
I’m hoping you’ll show me what to do
And if you help me to start again
You know that I’ll be there for you in the end

Real life example

For some reason, I always get emotional when I read the blog of my friend’s ex-husband.

Why do such people exist in this world?

Unemployed, not actively looking for job but playing online game in front of his computer screen the whole day.

Married for 1 yr, flat renovation was signed using wifey’s card. Monthly maintenance was paid by wifey.

Now that they’re in the processing of divorcing, he’s putting the blame on her.

A person with mood swings, I’d say. Some entries said he still loved her regardless of what she’d done, yet some were filled with angst and were targeted at her.

Now that they’re living separately, he’s staying in the flat that is still being supported by the wifey. She’s still paying for the renovations done signed using her card.

I can’t jump to conclusions since I do not know him personally, only through his blog. But still, I’m disgusted by his behaviour.

It’s real life examples like this that puts me off relationships. Much as I like the other party, afraid to take a step forward coz no one can determine what’s going to happen in the future.

Scary.

Self-disciplinary

Same thoughts at 10pm everyday, especially on a Sunday night.

I’m going to sleep early tonight.

But I’m always awake at 12.30am. So what had I been doing for the past 2 hours?

Nothing. Is there really that much stuff to surf, that I can keep myself occupied throughout the full 2.5 hours? =X

I ought to be more self-disciplined.

Feeling pretty tired

I know I’ll fall asleep the moment I touch the pillow, but my mind’s pretty active now, that I thought, as usual, to just post a short (?) entry.

Thanks guys & gals for turning up at the bbq! (though I was feeling pretty awkward when me & Eric were starting the fire / bbq when the resident of the place wasn’t even back yet) Everyone was late!! bah!

Aiya! Come to think of it, I forgot to thank auntie for helping us prepare the food! Or I think I did? =|

Felt so pai seh! Our bbq, but auntie helped us to prepare? No more next time! My skin not so thick hor =X

Well.. overall not too bad lah. It had been a fun bbq, thanks to the sabo-ing eh? Lucky I have water phobia, which is NOT an excuse in case you’re wondering.

The cake came as a surprise though. Thanks!

Been a long time since I last had such a happening celebration. Xie xie! =)
