standing up for the first time

realizing her life’s potential

what i long to hear

sometimes, i identify so much with certain songs tt i wish some parts of it would materialize in my own life. here is one of those. to hear the song, please head to bevlyn’s myspace webbie and click on “When I’m 80”.

«當我八十歲»

當我八十歲的時候 你還會不會這樣疼我
睡前聽我述說那一天 所有經過
當我輕揉你的耳朵 你還會不會這樣囉嗦
你還會不會聽見我說 說些什麼

當我八十歲的時候 你還會不會牽我的手
帶我到世界各地旅遊 漫步走走
透過弄人的眼角膜 你還會不會逗我酒渦
繼續寫情書記載所有 愛我的感受

哦 別說什麼
哦 這樣就足夠

我愛你的理由 混淆在習慣之中 像夏天的氣候
陰晴不定 不說出口 也能懂
你愛我的理由 你說過會到永久 像倔強的執著
陪我到白頭 不放手

當我八十歲的時候 隨著記憶力漸漸退弱
找不找到回憶的下落 把我封鎖
當我們被時間左右 還有多少爭吵能揮霍
把所有年幼的小差錯 都編成小說

哦 別說什麼
哦 這樣就足夠

我愛你的理由 混淆在習慣之中 像夏天的氣候
陰晴不定 不說出口 也能懂
你愛我的理由 你說過會到永久 像倔強的執著
陪我到白頭 不放手

當我八十歲的時候 你還會不會這樣愛我
彎著腰也要吻我額頭 直到我睡後

and i pray

first day of my leave. very happy tt i had this opportunity to be away. good rest and all. trying to make good decisions about how i use my time. think today was not too badly utilised. tmr shall be better! but it seems i don’t hv much left for room-packing. hmms. many demands, little resources.

i woke up and spent an hour just talking to God. don’t think i hv done that in a long while, and never extensively as such on my own. it was a very good time. and just as i was praying, CGL’s wifey SMSes me. (: very interesting timing.

in my 60mins w God, i was reminded tt i shldn’t take things in to my own hands. and while i looked bk at one of my older blog entries, made approx one year ago.. i realise i mentioned sth all the way bk then which still bugs me now. but ironically i hv nv really asked God for help. this will be my longstanding request to God this year. (:

in other news. i took the bus and train today. realized how impatient a person i am. i hv very little tolerance for ppl who block me on the escalator, at the card tapping exit/entrance in mrt stations, etc. die lah..

racing ahead

my thoughts are racing ahead of my life in real time. reminder once again to treasure and cherish what is here and now. it will be too late to miss it once it’s gone. think “Click” the movie.

this fast.fwd was triggered by the celebration of 1 year of life and growth for little baby A, plus the few friends that recently delivered. goodness, gracious me. this is even freaking me out.

absolutely fabulous

long saturday. enjoyed it thoroughly; hasn’t happened in a long while. for the absolutely amazing wkend, thank YOU.

-me [FB & tweet]

this has been an absolutely fabulous weekend thus far. for once, the wkend doesn’t feel like it’s too (freaking) short. my day started early because of morn rehearsal for sunday worship. i’d intended to return home after lunch but got ‘kidnapped’ to go down to town with 2 charming ladies. hehh. on the way to town, adr called and we decided to rendezvous outside lady-friend’s home so as to only take one car to town. trip down to town and hanging out with them was really fun!

for once, i actually got to roam Orchard with him holding my hand. (: we hvn’t actually done serious shopping since.. ever! like seriously. we explored ION together (his first, my fifth time), went from boutique to boutique, he tried clothes on to show me (which strangely hasn’t happened before, heh), bought more prezzies for 1yo niece b’dae, mused over more children’s clothing, had the famous long-queue takoyaki ‘golf’ balls with powdery iced matcha tea, saw very upmarket jap snacks in nippon-YA jap food boutique, and bought a bag to contain all our presents for baby niece. by the time we left ION, he had spent loads of moolah. haha.. he was on a roll!

we then walked bk to Istean Shaw. i’d hoped to catch a moobie. while walking bk, i expressed how much i was happy about this day out. so was he. and this be one of the precious moments in my memory bank. (: aniwaes. while in Isetan, he saw umeya, we tried umeya, and he bought umeya! (haha!) so much for last purchase in ION. final, final purchase was actually a belated anniversary present for me. it was as a result of a shameless declaration of what i wanted earlier in the day. keke.

so this is what i got as prezzie! (: (:

dior jazzclub!

clutch detail

eyeshadow n stuff

[shing² yeo, shuddup – don’t laugh at ‘purple’ anymore. :P]

and hor, i was dressed like crap while in town today. *sighhhh* crap because i had only intended to go to church for rehearsal and nothing more. this is what girlfriends with wonderful persuasive skills can do to me. so much for not wearing specs to places more than 3km from home, and for dressing appropriate, plus make-up on my face while in town.

fallen for you

new song that i adore. had trouble getting a link last week, but it’s here now. (: kept hearing “fallen for you” on radio earlier; turns out it is actually fallin’ for you.

enjoy!

I don’t know but
I think i maybe
Fallin’ for you
Dropping so quickly
Maybe i should
Keep this to myself
Waiting ’til i
Know you better

I am trying
Not to tell you
But i want to
I’m scared of what you’ll say
So i’m hiding what i’m feeling
But i’m tired of
Holding this inside my head

I’ve been spending all my time
Just thinking about ya
I don’t know where to
I think i’m fallin’ for you
I’ve been waiting all my life
And now i found ya
I don’t know where to
I think i’m fallin’ for you
I’m fallin’ for you

As i’m standing here
And you hold my hand
Pull me towards you
And we start to dance
All around us
I see nobody
Here in silence
It’s just you and me

I’m trying
Not to tell you
But i want to
I’m scared of what you’ll say
So i’m hiding what i’m feeling
But i’m tired of
Holding this inside my head

I’ve been spending all my time
Just thinking about ya
I don’t know where to
I think i’m fallin’ for you
I’ve been waiting all my life
And now i found ya
I don’t know where to
I think i’m fallin’ for you
I’m fallin’ for you

Oh i just can’t take it
My heart is racing
The emotions keep spinning out

I’ve been spending all my time
Just thinking about ya
I don’t know where to
I think i’m fallin’ for you
I’ve been waiting all my life
And now i found ya
I don’t know where to
I think i’m fallin’ for you
I’m fallin’ for you
I think i’m fallin’ for you

I’m fallin’ for you

pensive

i seem to have lost my motivation to blog about my mini roadtrip since the many happenings. no mood. /: still seeing a bit of fluctuations in readership and feeling a bit uneasy. then again, who is anyone kidding to think that anything can remain secret if one chooses to place it on the www? mr lim has managed to easily find my blog mid-2008, without even knowing or trying v hard to.

anyhoos. been pondering a lil’ abt this. perhaps i shld make the effort to speak to my colleague. just wondering when wld the timing be right, and what i shld say. God give me a divine appointment, the right words, and courage.

一二三四

and i place it in the same category as this.

1,2 – 1 2 3 4
give me more lovin then i’ve ever had.
make it all better when i’m feelin sad.
tell me that i’m special even when i know i’m not.
make me feel good when i hurt so bad.
barely gettin mad,
im so glad i found you.
i love bein around you.
you make it easy,
as easy as 1 2,(1 2 3 4.)

there’s only one thing two do three words four you.
i love you.
there’s only one way two say those three words
and that’s what i’ll do.

i love you.

give me more lovin from the very start.
piece me back together when i fall apart.
tell me things you never even tell your closest friends.
make me feel good when i hurt so bad.
best that i’ve had.
i’m so glad that i found you.
i love bein around you.
you make it easy as easy as 1 2,(1 2 3 4.)

there’s only one thing two do three words four you.
i love you.
there’s only one way two say those three words
and that’s what i’ll do.

i love you
