+on the way down i almost fell right through, but i held on to you+
i used to think that life has a plan for you and u just have to follow what's right and do what u are supposed to do. i believed that everything happens for a reason, n whenever sth bad happens to me, i always assume that there's bound to be a reason why, why and why.
but i just can't think of a reason why it's so easy to lose someone u love, n u realise how much u treasure e times spent together, n u regret taking him/her for granted, but it's all too late. i don't know him, but many around me do, so i'm kinda affected by it all, too. sigh. oh well.
i'm addicted to The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time! it's like, i can't bear to put it down, but at e same time i wanna put it down cos i don't wanna finish reading it so fast. ha. Mark Haddon's portrayal of a 15-year-old autistic boy is so totally amazing :)
congrats to sn track!!
Ryan Cabrera's On The Way Down
Sick and tired of this world
There's no more air
Tripping over myself, going nowhere
Waiting, suffocating, no direction
I took a dive and
[CHORUS]
On the way down
I saw you, and you saved me from myself
And I won't forget the way you loved me
And on the way down I almost fell right through
But I held on to you
Been wondering why it's only me
Have you always been inside waiting to breathe
It's alright, sunlight on my face
I wake up and yet, I'm alive 'cuz
[CHORUS]
I want to fade, I'm going under
But now, the weight of the world
Feels like nothing, nothing
You're all I wanted
You're all I needed
You're all I wanted
You're all I needed
And I won't forget the way you loved me
All that I wanted, all that I needed and now
[CHORUS]

+as e sun goes down,wakin' up my dreams, in my mind i'm with you once again+
this past week has been a blur. i don't even have e time to breathe, let alone come here to blog. oh well. really wonder how i can last till e A's. oh whatever.
if they ask me to draw TS of Ammophila leaf during bio prac test later i'm so gonna die. haha.
sigh huizhen n gang's meeting up tmr but i can't go :(
Stones taught me to fly
Love taught me to lie
Life taught me to die
So it's not hard to fall
When you float like a cannonball
Still a little bit of your song in my ear
Still a little bit of your words I long to hear
You step a little closer to me
So close that I can't see what's going on
eleen! e cannonball song :)

i love e rain! i mean, apart from getting all drenched just by walking along e corridor towards Under Lt1. ha. it was like, a total typhoon this morning man. brrr.
Mean Girls was a totally brainless chickflick, but it was really hilarious! haha. entertainment at its very best :) it totally helped that e male lead was kinda cute. heh.
blue's splitting up! was in such a total shock when i heard it on radio last night that i messaged like 5 pple in a row. haha. oh well, lee's currently working on a solo album. now THAT's what i'm looking forward to :) heh. hmmm but there isn't anything about it on officialblue n there's stuff about their next live tour n all. rumour? i dunno. i'm confused. haha.
Fantasia's I believe
Have you ever you ever reached a rainbow's end
And did you find your pot of gold
Ever catch a shooting star
Tell me how high did you soar
Ever felt like you were dreaming
Just to find that you're awake
Cause the magic that surrounds you
Will lift you up and guide you on your way
I can see it in the stars across the sky
Dreamt a hundred thousand dreams before
Now I finally realize
See I've waited all my life
for this moment to arrive
And finally yeah
I believe in the impossible
If I reach deep within my heart
Overcome any obstacle
Won't let this dream fall apart
See I strive to be the very best
Shine my light for all to see
Cause anything is possible
When you believe yeah
I can see it in the stars up in the sky
Dreamt a hundred thousand dreams before
Now I finally realize
I've waited all my life for this moment to arrive
And finally I believe
Yes I believe
Ohh Yeah
Love keeps liftin me higher
Liftin me higher
Love keeps liftin me higher
I said love keeps liften
Love keeps liften me
I said Love keeps liften
Love keeps liften me higher
Said love keeps liften me higher
I said love keeps liften me high
love e lyrics!! but i still prefer Diana singing it, though. haha.

+you and me, can't you see, we're everything we need to be right now+
i saw e prettiest rainbow in a long time :) it was a totally perfect rainbow with no ends! hehe. for once, e view from my front porch was amazingly nice :) haha!
ya know why i like blue? i've finally found e answer. their live performances :) no doubt they're boyband material - good looks propelling them to stardom, but these guys can really sing! oh boy :) their chords are like, damn good :) EVEN antony doesn't zao2 xia1! hahaha.
"deep down you know it's best for yourself but you
hate the thought of her him being with someone else
but you know that it's over
we know that it's through

+hold me like you'll never let me go+
i'm right now in love with John Denver's voice! :) oh dear i'm listening to what my dad's listening! -freaks out- i feel old. haha. but there's just something about these oldies that make pple like them. hees.
anws had to endure e trauma of watching my dad murder three crabs in e kitchen sink this morning. i was totally grossed out man. but i think i ate e most crab during lunch. oops. haha.
i'm constantly feeling sleepy man. slept for 12 hours last night, then i slept for about 2 hours this afternoon, n right now i'm feeling sleepy already. oh dear. i'm having e eleen-syndrome! -runs away-
All my bags are packed
I'm ready to go
I'm standin here outside your door
I hate to wake you up to say goodbye
But the dawn is breakin
It's early morn
The taxi's waitin
He's blowin his horn
Already I'm so lonesome
I could die
So kiss me and smile for me
Tell me that you'll wait for me
Hold me like you'll never let me go
Cause I'm leavin on a jet plane
Don't know when I'll be back again
Oh babe, I hate to go
There's so many times I've let you down
So many times I've played around
I tell you now, they don't mean a thing
Every place I go, I'll think of you
Every song I sing, I'll sing for you
When I come back, I'll bring your wedding ring
So kiss me and smile for me
Tell me that you'll wait for me
Hold me like you'll never let me go
Cause I'm leavin on a jet plane
Don't know when I'll be back again
Oh babe, I hate to go
Now the time has come to leave you
One more time
Let me kiss you
Then close your eyes
I'll be on my way
Dream about the days to come
When I won't have to leave alone
About the times, I won't have to say
Oh, kiss me and smile for me
Tell me that you'll wait for me
Hold me like you'll never let me go
Cause I'm leavin on a jet plane
Don't know when I'll be back again
Oh babe, I hate to go
But, I'm leavin on a jet plane
Don't know when I'll be back again
Oh babe, I hate to go

+we were meant to live for so much more, have we lost ourselves+
of human beans, fake TS-es, leg hair n cheese fries.
what a day :)
life has become back to routine for me. wake up, drag sleepy ass to school, fight hard not to sleep during lessons, slack awhile, go home, try damn hard to do some tutorials, end up reading harry potter, eat, watch tv, sleep, n it's back to Number One e next day. it's a vicious cycle, i say.
been thinking things through. shall appreciate e little things in life more. lalaa~
"Cider House Rules" tonight!! :)
Fumbling his confidence
And wondering why the world has passed him by
Hoping that he's bid for more than arguments
And failed attempts to fly

+The Best Things in Life+
A hot shower.
Hearing your favorite song on the radio.
Lying in bed listening to the rain outside.
Finding the sweater you want is on sale for half price.
Chocolate milkshake.
A long distance phone call.
A bubble bath.
Giggling.
A good conversation.
Midnight phone calls that last for hours.
Having someone tell you that you're beautiful.
Accidentally overhearing someone say something nice about you.
Making new friends or spending time with old ones.
Late night talks with your roommate that keep you from sleeping.
Having someone play with your hair.
Sweet dreams.
Hot chocolate.
Swinging on swings.
Winning a really competitive game.
Making chocolate chip cookies!
Having your friends send you homemade cookies!
Riding the best roller coasters over and over.
Hugging the person you love.
Watching the sunrise.
Having friends you know you can cry on or talk to about your deepest problems.
Spending time with close friends!
Laughing so hard your face hurts.
Laughing at an inside joke.
Seeing smiles and hearing laughter from your friends...
Laughing so absolutely so reason at all...
Laughing at yourself.
Most of all, you :)

+bought a ticket to e end of e rainbow, watched e stars crash in e sea+
just got back from e most hilarious n maddest a la carte buffet lunch ever! i swear i don't need to eat dinner n tmr's breakfast n lunch already. ha. it was to celebrate my grandfather's birthday :) we totally unleashed e Singaporean in all of us man. heh. e "28 konoyaku jelly" thingy was e funniest of all. oh boy. haha. erm, inside joke :)
going to e Telok Kurau park for some closing ceremony thing to support my dad, then it's a rush to join e class for a gathering-cum-farewell dinner for kaishian at i-dunno-where-yet, then it's a euro-cum-slumber party at hazel's house with my two crazy cousins! -bounces around- i guess that mountain of tutorials can wait till free period on tuesday. heh. i'm rooting for portugal!! yay!!
Hope dangles on a string
Like slow spinning redemption
Winding in and winding out
The shine of it has caught my eye
And roped me in
So mesmerizing, so hypnotizing
I am captivated, I am
Vindicated
I am selfish
I am wrong
I am right
I swear I'm right
I swear I knew it all along
And I am flawed
But I am cleaning up so well
I am seeing in me now the things you swore you saw yourself...
"I believe there's a hero in all of us, even though sometimes we have to give up the things we want the most."

+JPL's My Girl+
I've got sunshine on a cloudy day
And when it's cold outside
I've got the month of May
We'll I guess, you'd say
What can make me feel this way
My Girl (my girl, my girl)
Talkin' 'bout my girl (my girl)
I don't need no money baby
Fortune or fame
I've got all the riches baby
That one man could claim
Well, I guess, you'd say
What can make me feel this way
My girl, (my girl, my girl)
Talkin' 'bout my girl (my girl)
Nooo, Ohh (My girl)
I've got sunshine on a cloudy day
With my girl
Ohh....My girl

oh goodness.
shocking shocking shocking.
shall go sleep.
Zzzz.

MY. GOD. haha :) sinhui n i were totally serenaded by his voice! n she's going there tmr night again to hear him sing :( jealous!
i think if i'm a tourist i'd absolutely love s'pore :) it's just that singaporeans don't appreciate what's there in front of them in s'pore. haha. just a random thought after walking along e river n admiring e long row of pubs n e seems-so-overseas architecture :) hee!
i bought a white wrap-around skirt (like finally!) n e Spiderman soundtrack! hees. cel i pass to ya on tuesday :)
oooh yes Spiderman so rocked! all e action! we can so totally relate to what Peter Parker's going through man :) was supposed to blog about e movie this morning but my dad's comp couldn't be used cos he's in e process of "killing a virus" n being e considerate sister i am, i didn't use e comp in my bro's room cos that PIG was still sleeping. haha.
luurrvve spidey!! :)
Jet's
Hold On - from e Spiderman soundtrack!
You tried so hard to be someone
That you forgot who you are
You tried to fill some emptiness
Till all you had spilled over
Now everything's so far away
That you don't know where you are
You are
When all that you wanted
When all that you had don't seem so much
For you to hold onto
For you to hold onto
For you to belong to
When it's hard to be yourself
It's not to be someone else
Still everything's so far away
That you forget where you are
You are
When all that you wanted
When all that you had don't seem so much
For you to hold onto
For you to hold onto
Hold on...
When all that you wanted
When all that you had don't seem so much
For you to hold onto
For you to hold onto
For you to hold onto
For you to belong to
