She
May be the face I can't forget
The trace of pleasure or regret
May be my treasure or the price I have to pay
She
May be the song that summer sings
May be the chill that autumn brings
May be a hundred different things
Within the measure of a day
She
May be the beauty or the beast
May be the famine or the feast
May turn each day into a heaven or a hell
She may be the mirror of my dreams
The smile reflected in a stream
She may not be what she may seem
Inside her shell
Do you delay the moment to sleep at night only to wonder as I do if it is because I can't bear for Today to end or if it is because I dread the coming of Tomorrow?
And do you refused to wake up in the wee hours of the morning as I do and wonder afterwards if it is because I want to indulge in the afterglow of the beautiful dreams or if it is because I am not ready to face the world Today?
Perhaps, I am not prepared to let go of Yesterday and face Today or Tomorrow because I am lost as to what I want. *Baffled about Life*
I guess I thought you'd be here forever Another illusion I chose to create You don't know what you've got until it's gone And I found out a little too late
I was acting as if you were lucky to have me Doing you a favor - I hardly knew you at all Then you were gone and it all was wrong Had no idea how much I cared
Now being without you takes a lot of getting used to I should learn to leave with it, but I don't want to
CHORUS: Being without you, was all a big mistake Instead of getting any easier, it's the hardest thing to take I'm addicted to you, baby You're a hard habit to break
You found someone else, you had every reason No one can blame you for running to him Two people together, but living alone I was spreading my love too thin
After all of these years I'm still trying to shake you Doing much better - They say that it just takes time But deep in the night, it's an endless fight I can't get you out of my mind
Now being without you takes a lot of getting used to I should learn to leave with it, but I don't want to
CHORUS
I can't go on, just can't go on I can't go on, just can't go on
Being without you takes a lot of getting used to I should learn to leave with it, I don't want to
CHORUS
Such a hard habit to break I'm addicted to you You're a hard habit to break Such a hard habit to break I'm addicted to you, baby
Some photos which u can find from 3 different blogs.
The above shots had been taken at Suntec, Bie Fu* and the Fountain of Wealth* on 190606. Please refer to 2 entry back to link. Next time, let's not be the 3minus1 anymore! Also, no more Da Wei Wangs, girlies. *Winks*
Coquelicots by Claude Monet (for some tranquility)
Looking at the title of this entry, you guys would have figured it has been a busy week. I had been so busy that I forgot what i did on the past Monday and Tuesday(!) and so yea, why don't all of you welcome Ms. Busy busy Bumble-Bee? That is my latest "term" that i set for myself for amusement sake, though, i am not sure if i am really that amused. Hmm...
Well then, I have been busy since Wednesday for a freelance charting job. It is something similar to what i used to do at Millward Brown. Interesting huh? (Im on a big $saving$ scheme, so let me know if there are any part-time freelance jobs? Thanks in advance!) Well then, Thursday's lesson with the tutor which i have a depise-pity feeling for (makes me guilty to despise thus the pity) puts a dent in the week! :(
Friday night: I picked up my first artist as an Art Liasion Officer! Hee, he is a artist from China, and a really nice person! Ok.. i have to admit that that i was hoping for a really gd-looking guy (so shallow right?) and well, this artist looks really small sized and drabby but hey! he's nice and e showed up! It is an interesting feeling to stand in the airport holding up a placard for someone whom you have never seen before. There are actually anticipation and fear that the person may not turned up!
I managed to catch a movie with dear Dayu yesterday's afternoon. We watched "the Breakup". I dont like it that the couple keep quarrelling but ... silly me! its called "the Breakup" after all. Sometimes, a couple stayed in a relationship for sometime and realised each have their unhappiness about each other. It's a headache really. I mean the movie kinda reinforce my doubts that having a relationship is a messy and time-consuming affair! Mr. Perfect will never be Mr. Perfect and Ms. Perfect will never be good enough. Hmm.. *food for thoughts*
Anyway, after that, i went to picked up Mr. Kazuya. I didnt realised it was a Mister. In fact, i thought he was the famous artist Ms. Kasuma, and i didnt realised the difference until just before I went to the airport so that was like: "omg! I hope someone turned up!" In fact, 2 person turned up. (i waited for a really long time btw.:S) Mr. Kazuya and his (or so they say) interpreter. The guy is quite good-looking but well, its obvious they are a couple! Darnz! lolx. *Shrugs* Well then, just like before, I checked them into the hotel and mission completed!
After which, Lyn n i met up for a fufilling dinner @ the Asian Kitchen and...caught a outdoor performance at the Esplanade. Some singer named Ajay was performing and he have a really good rich voice (like Josh Groban type but of coz i wont compare!). Hee, anyway, he gpt a good show going as this singer is really entertaining. That's about all for my busy-busy week. Btw, yesterday, Lyn n me saw so many Gays. Sighh... Sad sad world!

This weekend has been an eventful one. Well, it seems to have passed too quickly though. I attended the long-awaited salsa trial workshop yesterday at the Esplanade with Mr. Photographer, Lyn n BF. Ahh.. i realised i have poor co-ordination, so what else was new? Haha, I guess i just forgot how bad I was at dancing and how stressed I will get trying to fit the arms and feet movement. Hee, lucky for me, I am not the only one. Think Mr. Photographer was just as stressed. :P It is even harder to co-ordinate when you are dancing with someone else. I ended up feeling like I am leading some of the guys while i just managed to conveniently forget the dance steps with others. *bashful shrugs* All in all though, it has been an interesting experience. *grins*
With Dearies
After the lesson, I met up with Julie dear and Phoebe dear. It's always a joy to meet the gals and we just have a nice time pigging out at the "Bie Fu" @ Suntec. OMG! We ate so much that its totally sinful! Let's not be "Da Wei Wang" next time ok? Hehehe, a total laugh! Love you gals! and here's some *Kisses** for you!
Sunday Work-a-holic Morning
I love sunday mornings! (A piece of info for those who do not know) but this morning, I cant fully enjoy my Sunday morning as I was busy trying to get my essay (due tomorrow) done and I have to go out early to help out at the SA tour Travel Fair. I ended up being late for the travel fair but it was so crowded and I could not find the person-in-charge! Nursing a headache, I decided to go down to Starbucks for a chilled drink and I ran into Steve! The E.D. of AT and what a surprise! He's still as nice as ever and that gentle tone. Ahh!! I always admired him for that. Anyway, after waiting (in between which i decided to shop around) until its time for my belly-dancing workshop, I still cant find the person in charge. I believe tomorrow will be a tough day and hope i dnt get into trouble for not turning up coz I actually did. *Shrugs*
Belly Dancing and Big Hips
I think I have found a new exercise to love - Belly Dancing. It was really fun doing all the hip thrusts, pelvic in-out, the shimmies! Haha, and its real energy-consuming. I salute all belly-dancers! My limbs now feel limp coz all my energy has been zapped up but not my enthuisiam! Yinnnnnn, please come back soon? I wished you are here to take up some belly-dancing courses with me. It will be so much fun! Oh yea, and while we are on this subject, I realised (hate to admit) I do have huge hips. :( Looking into the mirror as I dance, I believ my body proportions look really distorted with the hips being larger than it is supposed to be. *No sweat! I will just gladly console myself that I will be able to become a good belly dancer then! Hehe, guys, my latest motto shout out: Try everything new while you can!
Last night, Yilin was telling me about a movie "Click" that she watched recently. It sounded like a really interesting and meaningful plot about the lead actor being able to control his life by using a remote control. It kinda got me thinking what will I do if I have a remote control to control my life.
Being a person who likes to indulge in future dreams and reminsce on long past memories, I believe I will be committing the same mistakes as the lead actor. He fast-forward his life when the going gets tough and sometimes, he just missed out on the important people and events in his current on-going life. When he rewinded to look upon the past though, only then did he regret and wished he could have done it in another way. I believe the moral of the story is to urge us-busy-earthlings to take note of our present, and not regret when everything passes in flash, coz that's what always happen.
Perhaps though, it takes courage. One probably must have tremendous courage to live in the present, the reality. For in the past, everything have become a fact and there's nothing you can do to change a single thing in history (human dont like changes, remember?) and in the future, of what dreams may be... Dreams are always beautiful for you are protected in a world of your own. So tell me then, are you not as guilty of living in your past and future or at the very least, tempted to do so? If you can honestly say no, I salute you.
Once in a while, I laugh at absolutely nothing just because.
Once in a while, I do something crazy to my hair;
Once in a while, I dream about being anywhere but here;
Once in a while, I crave for everything sinful - from food to people;
Once in a while, i allow myself to indugle in long past memories and amazingly far future - it makes me sad though.
Once in a while, i indulge in my nerdy specs and hide like a hermit in my own sanctuary;
Once in awhile, I wish for unexplored dreams that are far, faraway;
Once in awhile, I get bouts of inspirations and excitement - to try everything new (too bad it never lasts);
Once in awhile, I wonder about life and why it is so hard to grasp.
Once in awhile, I get motivated to be a better person - Directness sometimes equate meaness that refreshes though;
Once in awhile, I feel the urge to scream and does so against my poor scrunched up pillow;
Once in awhile, I get dramatic mood swings that affects the good people around;
but fault me not, for i am human after all.
For the benefit of Dez & Willy, you better not laugh at the "strawberry shortcake", Dez. I feel like a gnome in this pic, ugly but funny. So there, here's your funny friend with the new funny hairdo amusing me.
She's back! I mean my dearest old friend, Mei! She finally arrived back in Singapore yesterday and I was thrilled to meet her, happy and honoured to be the first of friends to be able to see her too. My dear is still the same and it was just great seeing her, raving about Europe and life. Thank you for the chocs and presents. Thank you for coming back already and Thank you for being you. *Kisses*
The week had passed pretty fast (funny it doesn't feel that way in mid-week though). Well, anyway, Lyn & I caught a movie "The Lake House", starring Sandra Bullock and Keanu Reeves, a couple of days ago.It is a poigant love story about 2 person falling in love with each other, when they havent exactly met each other (kinda makes one think ..ahh! that's really true love but how common of that do you get? *sighs*). Hmm.. I am trying to find a better way to convey the feelings evolving from the movie but I cant find a better way. I guess the best i can do it to say that this is a bittersweet love story. Even though it has a happy ending, one does not feel the exhilarating joy that makes you want to jump up and down and hug the person next to you to cheer. Instead, it makes you want to lean by in the chair and sigh with satisfaction when the 2 main leads found each other. Does that makes any sense?
Synopsis: An independent-minded doctor (Sandra Bullock) who once occupied an unusual lakeside home begins exchanging love letters with its newest resident, a frustrated architect (Keanu Reeves). When they discover that they're actually living two years apart, they must try to unravel the mystery behind their extraordinary romance before it's too late.
The Bittersweet End.

The Old Guitarist, 1903
If thou must love me, let it be for nought Except for love's sake only.
Do not say, I love her for her smile, her look, her way of speaking gently, for a trick of thought that falls in well with mine, and, certes, brought a sense of pleasant ease on such a day.
For these things in themselves, Beloved, may be changed, or change for thee- and love so wrought, may be unwrought so.
Browning, Elizabeth Barrett
