And there's no destiny
When everyone's your enemy
Take your jealous heart
And cast it into stone
You'll regret it all
Living behind your wall
And you'll never fall in love
If you don't fall at all

Tuesday, September 16, 2008 I don't care, I honestly don't care anymore. I am willing to forgo our friendship cause it clearly doesnt mean anything to you anymore.
You say that we haven't been able, or rather, haven't been, spending alot of time together as compared to what we used to. You say you miss all the old days, but have you EVER stopped and wonder WHY we haven't been able to go out as often as we used to? HAVE YOU? You say that we don't have time, that we're busy with school work and our timetable clashes, granted, for mondays to thurdays but a load of BULL for fridays. I have been able to meet my other friends almost every friday, even when we're not in the same school and I know what time your school ends on friday and it isn't much later than mine. The reason why we, nono, YOU, dont have time for me, and clearly not the other way round, is that since you've found HIM, you just HAVE TO spend EVERY SINGLE SECOND WITH HIM. Even when we're together, you constantly and messaging him. What's the purpose of that? You might as well just WALK AWAY AND GO FIND HIM. Obviously, he is more important than me so just go. I don't want you to feel obligated. GO IF YOU WANT. You used to tell us, when we asked you out on saturday, that saturday you cannot go out. OHHHHH. REALLY? How come now you can spend the entire saturday with him? You know, when you go into a relationshio and find yourslef losing all your friends and making friends with all his friends, it means you're in too deep. I can't help you anymore. I don't wanna be your friend cause at this point in time, I'm only being a fair weathered friend to you cuz I no longer talk to you about things that happen in my life. The only time I talk to you is when I have to ask you questions. And I'd rather not be a friend at all than be a fair weathered friend. Cuz fair weathered friends are much worst and I'm not sinking to your level.
YOU YOU YOU. It was never about ME. It was never me cause I have always been here for you. But ask yourself, have you always been there for me? Tell me, what's has recently happened in my life? If you can't say anything, it means you havent been there. SIMPLE. CLEAR AS CRYSTAL.
Even if you apologize, I may never well forgive you. Even if I do, I will never forget this. My friends, let this be a lesson learnt, that it is an absolute CARDINAL SIN to neglect your best friend in favour of your boyfriend. Remember this: your best friend was there BEFORE him, your best friend is there when you're with him but more importantly, your best friend will be there AFTER him. That is if she doesn't leave you. So I'm speaking out for all best friends, read, digest and learn.
Goodbye my friends.

Tuesday, June 17, 2008 Couldn't stop thinking about my shades since Saturday and Mildred persuaded me to get them today so I went down to Wisma to get them but when I got there, there was one lousy scratched-up pair left. BUT there was this other pair. Quite nice too and it was the same price. So I GOT IT! YAY. I'm happy! [and i'm also supposed to be studying now! HEEE (:]
I still lust after my raybans!

Thursday, June 12, 2008 Nothing lasts forever And sometimes in life, You have to say Goodbye 'Cause life has to go on. The show must go on.
I'll definitely miss you Thank you for everything you've done

Saturday, June 07, 2008 I remember when i first started this blog, I used to post a different song lyric in every single post and I feel tempted to do that again but it was really hard coming up with different lyrics! But anyways, still on the topic of music, I was on the way to school today in the bus and that's the best time I have to really listen to my songs (lyrics wise) and I was really listening to Always Be My Baby (David Cook version) and I almost started crying. I don't know what came ove me but the lyrics were just so precious. And the song has been stuck in my blooody head since. UNTIL NOW. I just watched Derek Cate on youtube. Yes, he has a new video! And as you probably know by now, I love his voice and the guitar playing. He did a cover of Chris Brown's With You. It was just decent for me cuz he can sing much better but the song, the song's stuck in my head now!
Anywhooose. I'm killing myself right now looking at my sweet little gibson hummingbird. I am making me cringe and craaaaaaaaaave that thing and it's not healthy. Within 2 weeks, I've been to the gibson website to just look at the hummingbird a couple of times! And guess what I saw? A pic of Paolo Nutini playing a hummingbird! Did I mention James Morrison has one too? And Marie Digby? And KT TUNSTALL! Between a hummingbird and the doves in flight. And between the hummingbird, there's a normal version and a custom version. And then you choose between koa or cherry sunburst finish. Oh, but the Doves' engavings are so much more intricate and it's less popular. I like unpopular stuff cuz then fewer people have em! CHOICES! Lol. But sadly, it doesnt look like I'll be getting myself one of em any time soon. Probably have to wait for my first REAL paycheck! And even so, it may not be enough! The Dove is the most expensive gibson and the hummingbird, the second most expensive (according to wikipedia, yes, I do my research)!
I don't know but I just love looking at acoustics. I know, the whole "but rockers rock out ELECTRIC"! But acoustic has always been my thing! It's so much more intimate and raw. And you can't hide behind your heavy bass or drumming. It's really personal and just that "rustique" sound to it gets me going. It's stripped down and bare and that's what's so precious about doing it acoustic!
Random: I finally know why DC has AC pasted oh his guitar! Apparently, they're his brothers' initials. Right, me and Yuling were quite close! We guessed it was his dad's! Not bad right! LOL. Other guesses were AC/DC or alternating current. HEEE (:
Oh wow, time flies when you're looking at gibsons and it's late and I woke up at 5.53 this morning and I'm beat. Goodnight! (:
Forgive, sounds good Forget, I’m not sure I could They say time heals everything But I’m still waiting
I’m 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 still mad as hell and I don’t have time to go round and round and round It’s too late to make it right I probably wouldn’t if I could ‘Cause I’m mad as hell Can’t bring myself to do what it is you think I should
I know you said Can’t you just get over it It turned my whole world around And I kind of like it
I made my bed and I sleep like a baby With no regrets and I don’t mind sayin’ It’s a sad sad story when a mother will teach her Daughter that she ought to hate a perfect stranger And how in the world can the words that I said Send somebody so over the edge That they’d write me a letter Sayin’ that I better shut up and sing Or my life will be over
I’m not ready to make nice I’m not ready to back down I’m still mad as hell and I don’t have time to go round and round and round It’s too late to make it right I probably wouldn’t if I could ‘Cause I’m mad as hell Can’t bring myself to do what it is you think I should

Thursday, May 29, 2008 THE LIST:
And here is the coverted GSS list of mine. (:
CDs: 1) Lenny Kravitz's It's Time For a Love Revolution 2) Kevin Kern's In My Life 3) Kevin Kern's Imagination's Light And whatever catches my eye. The guy in Sembawang is really good at getting me to spend money so we'll see what I get.
Stuff: 1) Shades. I would love to get my ray bans which I've been dreeeeaming of since sec 2. It still costs $259. HAH. But I wannt a nice pair of aviators. (: 2) Vintage band tees. From the shop at Far East. I'm loving my AC/DC and Guns N' Roses shirt. Some Rolling Stones and Beatles perhaps? 3) Shorts. I need more shorts! 4) A nice versatile bag. Just got a black one from adidas (it was at more than half price discount!!) but I'm still on the lookout for nice bags! 5) Pouch for ipod. My stupid cheapo one spoiled and I'm eyeing a new one from wallet shop but it's ex without the visa discount! I need my mum/dad/anyone with visa!
So that's all for now.
Anyways, Pre-U Sem for me is finally over! Yesterday was great cuz the schools were good and there were no technical glitches! RJC got shot as predicted during the Q&A session but John was really good and he managed to fend of all the questions. Bala from SP wasn't bad either. Anuja's cute NYP guy shot back at Pioneer and he displayed real insight and knowledge. Anuja was preeeetty high when I told her about him. Everyone loved SP's video and I personally like SP's team a lot cuz they're really nice and friendly. Their teacher even came to congratulate me after the presentation and gave me a nice firm handshake. (: The Abigails and John from RJC were very nice and polite too. Which leaves....well, you know. But at least that bitch didn't talk at all yesterday so I had nothing against her. And last but not least, I got to see my eyecandy yesterday! HEEEEE. (: He looked super cool, sharp and smart in his blazer. Sharon's been hearing all about him and how blazers really do make people appear smarter than they are! But it sad cuz it's all over now and no more eyecandy for me until Sharon (hopefully) works some magic! (:
Update's over and now it's time to get cracking. 25 more days to go (i think!) then it's judgement time. Til then!

Well I know what I've been told, You got to work to feed the soul But I can't do this all on my own No, I know, I'm no Superman I'm no Superman
You've got your love online You think you're doing fine But you're just plugged into the wall And that deck of tarot cards Won't get you very far There ain't no hand to break your fall
Well I know what I've been told You gotta know just when to fold But I can't do this all on my own No, I know, I'm no Superman I'm no Superman
That's right You've crossed the finish line Won the race but lost your mind Was it worth it after all I need you here with me Cause love is all we need Just take a hold of the hand that breaks the fall
Well I know what I've been told Gotta break free to break the mold But I can't do this all on my own No I can't do this all on my own I know that I'm no Superman I'm no Superman I'm no Superman
Someday we'll be together I'm no Superman Someday Someday we'll be together Someday I'm no Superman

Friday, May 02, 2008 I just read someone's blog. And she actually got sooo many pics with the cast of We Will Rock You. Which was wayyy cool. And I was thinking what it would be like to get a picture taken with your ultimate idol. Okay. Maybe not you IDOL but someone you really respect and appreciate (in terms of what they do). And I was thinking who I would like to meet. No, jon's not in the list. I've already met him like 7 times. We've hugged twice so nah...I mean someone/people REALLLLY cool. So here goes:
1) My groundbreaker: Paul David Hewson aka BONO. That would be way rad man! I'd be TOTALLY star struck and just be speechless. I'd like to shake his hand. And if he permit, we should take a picture to immortalise the moment! HAHA. Then I'll blow up the picture and frame it in my house. And I'll tell my grandkids about meeting Bono! (:
2) THE LOVEHAMMERS! I was actually going to write them massive amounts of emails begging them to play here. But I realised even if they come, they'd play in like a small place and it will be like 99% in a bar. So, I'll wait till I'm 18 then I'll write. That way, I'll be able to watch them! Yes. I'd love to talk to dino and marty. They're probably the wackiest out of the band! And I wanna talk to them about music! That'll be sooo awesome.
3) The Eagles. I know, WHOOO? They're an olddddddddd band. But hey, I grew up listening to them! I'd love to hear them sing The Last Resort and Hole in the World. And DUHHH. Hotel California!
4) Brian May and Taylor Rogers. The remaining members of Queen! Meeting Dr May (yes, he has a phD!) and Mr Taylor would be absolutely WOAH. The original guitar hero and the drummer with the crazy falsettos! WOW. I'd loveeeee to meet Freddie too but sadly, it's impossible. Perhaps we'll meet in heaven! (:
5) Jamie Cullum. Mildred and I will go meet him together! ahaha. And in this ideal world, he'll sing twentysomething and I get a Kick out of You and we'll just be our wacky selves! (:
6) Johnny Depp!!!!!!! Captain Jack Sparrow! woooh. This guy is extremely versatile! Every single role he plays is so different and unique and no one else can pull them off like he does!
7) Anthony Keidis. Frontman of the RHCP! His life so far has been one helluva crazy ride and if I do meet him, (I hope he's still clean) I'll say how proud I am that he managed to kick his drug problems! And I'd love to hear a rhyme or two from him! He's a total talent, weaving stories in his everyday life into the lyrics of RHCP!
Yupp. Mostly they're musicians! Except for Johnny Depp of course!
Anyways, I was youtubing just now and I ended up watching Keith Urban! I've heard You'll Think Of Me and Tonight I Wanna Cry a dozens of times but somehow, when you combine music and pictures, the lyrics just gets through on a much more deeper level and to be honest, the two vids were tugging at my heartstrings and made me sooooo sad.
Enjoy!
You'll Think of Me Version 1
You'll Think of Me Version 2
Tonight I Wanna Cry
I LOVE how he plays the guitar especially in Version 2 of You'll Think of Me! (: the whole plucking simultaneous strings thing is woah. (:

I LOVE: My conversations with my friends. Not those superficial ones where we blabber but the true conversations where you pour your heart and soul out to one another and you talk about things sooooo deep and sometimes so weird that no one else understands you except for that one friend. That probably is one of the true markings of true friendship. The kind of friendship that can weather any storm. True friends are always there for you. No matter how long the two of you haven't seen each other or haven't talked over the phone, or haven't written a letter to one another, or haven't smsed one another. A True Friend will pick up the phone and talk to you and picked up where you both last left of even if you call up all of a sudden with a blocked nose and sobs all over. A True Friend is one that you can call when you're in doubt with your work and you need help (with english and GP, especially in coming up with really chim phrases!) and she/he will be willing to help you no matter how busy she/he is. A True Friend isn't shy to give you your birthday present 9 months after your birthday! A True Friend will walk with you aroung watsons for the hundredth time no matter how boring it is. A True Friend will always support you in whatever you do, even if they sometimes doubt your reasons, because deep down, they know you'll be able to pull through and if you don't they'll ALWAYS have your back. A True Friend writes you poems to tell you what a wonderful person you are. A True Friend exchanges their ipod with you on the journey home so that they know what songs you listen to and you know what songs they listen to. A True Friend sings "This Love" with you everytime it plays on the radio even if you both have sang it a million times before just because the song is sooo brilliant to sing! A True Friend eats TOFU with you. A True Friend watches Parent Trap with you even though the both of you have probably watched it at least a hundred times combined before (i'm not kidding on this one) and says the lines of the characters even before the characters speak. A True Friend call you "Mildred Darling!" and you call her the same thing too. (:
Babe, I think you know who you are and I just wanna thank you sooooooo sooooooo much for being my TRUE FRIEND. You've always been there for me whenever I needed help. I remember the time I called you up in sec 3 and asked you how to write an essay on "freedom" and after your pointers, i wrote a 6 page long essay. It could have well developed into a novel if I wanted to continue. And I also remember the time I called you up asking you if I should do my PW groundbreaker on Henry Ford or Bono and you said the latter and I've never looked back since (I remember you asking Jon and he screamed BONO!!! LOL). And I definitely remember the time we watched Parent Trap together for like the 40th plus time (individually, our record). That was fun! We should really start dipping our oreos in peanut butter. And I remember how we, or maybe I, recorded This Love on my phone and we used to play it and sing that song! LOL. Whatever it is, and whatever is gonna be, THANK YOU for making a difference in my life. Thank You for being my True Friend. And now, I guess it's time for me do help you.
BE STRONG! You can do it! (:
Your hands are shaking cold These hands are meant to hold Speak to me When all you got to keep is strong Move along, move along Like I know you to And even when your hope is gone Move along, move along Just to make it through Move along Move along
