Walk Away

All the words that we have to say
They don't leave when the moment comes
We know we have to wait
As the days go on and the places fade away
to dirt and to dust, it all fades away

And the waiting is the hardest thing to take
In a moment more before we break

If you have to let it go
And these dreams keep you awake
If you have to let it go
Walk away

In the shapes we want to see
Don't leave another piece that this puzzle needs

And the waiting is the hardest thing to take
In a moment more before we break

If you have to let it go
And these dreams keep you awake
If you have to let it go
Walk away

And the waiting is the hardest thing to take
In a moment more before we break

If you have to let it go
And these dreams keep you awake
If you have to let it go
Walk away

If you have to let it go
And these dreams keep you awake
If you have to let it go
Walk away (walk away)

If you have to let it go
And these dreams keep you awake
If you have to let it go
Walk away (walk away)
(Walk Away - Funeral For A Friend)

Walk away Jon...

Hello my treacherous friends...

Absolutely love this song by Sia... it's called Breathe Me...

Help, I have done it again
I have been here many times before
Hurt myself again today
And, the worst part is there's no-one else to blame

Be my friend
Hold me, wrap me up
Unfold me
I am small
and needy
Warm me up
And breathe me

Ouch I have lost myself again
Lost myself and I am nowhere else to be found,
Yeah I think that I might break
Lost myself again and I feel unsafe

Be my friend
Hold me, wrap me up
Unfold me
I am small
and needy
Warm me up
And breathe me

Be my friend
Hold me, wrap me up
Unfold me
I am small
and needy
Warm me up
And breathe me

(Breathe Me - Sia)

It's been a while since i last posted anything again... in other words... this is another super late post... school's been crazy with all the projects and meetings... lots of other issues have surfaced but hopefully they'll all be resolved soon..
*nobody understands*

Was driving the other day when i saw this lady trying to flag a cab using an umbrella... dun know abt u but i found this to be rather rude actually... maybe it's juz me...
*nobody understands*

Yes can someone pls tell me why u're not allowed to use the handphone while driving but last i heard there isn't any regulations against holding a drink on one hand? Just doesn't make sense to me... plus apparently u are ALLOWED to use the hands-free set but not the loudspeaker?!
*nobody understands*

Was abt to have my dinner at long john's the other day... walked up to the counter and ordered a combo 1... received my food... paid the man... took my change... abt to walk away... when he suddenly asked me... "do u want to try our new '......' combo?".... now i found this extremely odd... i already ordered... i juz paid u... shouldn't u be asking me this BEFORE i ordered?
*nobody understands*

I was overly ecstatic one weekend when my beloved City beat United... although we were totally dominated by them... we still somehow managed to come away with the 3 points... i was over the moon... the blue moon... but i was brought crashing back down to earth when we lost to Arsenal by the single goal... After Kasper saved that penalty i was certain we were gonna come away with something... but alas... fabregas juz ruined it all for us... but still... 4 games on and 9 points... tat's really good... let's see how long this fairytale can last...
*nobody understands*

Character trait: I seem to listen better when i dun look into the person's eyes... i'll juz stare n my mind will go blank... it may seem i'm more attentive this way but i'm actually not... gives 'getting lost in ur eyes' a whole new perspective...
*nobody understands*

i'm not bitter anyway...
let it go...
just smile away jon...
just smile away...

Long awaited: ratatouille finally opens this week... in fact tomorrow... i'm not kidding when i say i've been waiting like forever for this show to make it to our shores... can u imagine tat this show opened in the US on the 22nd of June and we're only premiering it now? oh well... eagerly waiting for balls of fury and superbad as well... heard although superbad is rated M18 tat some parts will still be censored... damn censorship board...
*nobody understands*

Was waiting too long...
Picked up the phone and called a cab...
"where are u waiting sir?"
"i'm standing in front of upper east coast bus terminal"
"sir there's no such bus station"
turned my head around to see a giant sign tat says otherwise...
"i'm pretty sure there's one"
"no sir u must be mistaken"
a bus exits the terminal past me...
"no i'm not mistaken n i'm standing right in front of it"
"sir maybe u could go check n see......."
"*irritated* look... i'm telling u there IS such a bus terminal and i'm standing right in front of it!"
"*agitated* alright... if u INSIST sir... pls standby for cab number"

one day u'll see... u'll see dammit...

Caught a rather interesting sight last nite after work... there was this couple at the bus-stop and it looked as if the guy was leaving... i wasn't being kapo or wat but they were juz right in front of me... anyway... and so he and his woman kissed... no tats not the interesting part... its when he started walking away and his back was turned... the woman actually spitted on the ground... spit after kiss... oh my... love...
*nobody understands*

Sitting on the upper deck of the bus on the way home... i noticed something out of the ordinary... there was a slipper on top of the bus stop... not a pair... just ONE slipper... several questions ran thru my mind at that very moment... how did tat one get there? Who's is it? How did tat person walk home? Why is it i can't find any shop that sells the current Manchester City jersey? Questions... only questions...

Girl on girl... what a riot...

What became of the likely lads?


(From left- Gary L, Ivan, Jon, YK, Gary G)
(Absent - KA)

Met up with the guys last Friday after my class... Was really great seeing them again after so long... i've mentioned a couple of them during my time blogging so u can put a face to a name now... All of us have ORDed except for Ivan and it won't be coming anytime soon either... still got long long my friend... haha... Dinner at Kenny Rogers which prob was my most expensive meal i've ever eaten this yr... xin tia ke bei xi... after which they did the usual... go home... haiz... we gotta change this ard alrite? get a few drinks... watch a movie... go step on snails... anything man... juz something!

Gary L - he still works for the government though... think it's customs if i'm not mistaken... basically it's juz like life at home affairs... juz tat he doesn't have his printer now... heard from him tat he's planning another raid at home affairs selling infant/baby clothes... his aunt sorta has this mini business and apparently they made quite a bit the last time they were there...

Ivan - Ah ivan... the only one from this grp still at tat place... nothing much has changed for him except he's sorta more "value-added" now becoz of the shortage of "talent" at the workplace. Good on ya son!

Jon - Jon? Who's Jon?

YK - Apart from being in the failed football team which we have... he's still one of the guys i get along better with... he's gonna be starting school in SMU soon... so whenever i'm in town n free i'll be sure to call him out for a meal...

Gary G - The tech guy has become the aircraft technician... How we miss his humour in the workplace... he never failed to put a smile (or even a good laugh) on us...

Oh how i miss...

Caught The Simpsons with my friends the other day... to me i found it very enjoyable to watch... in fact... i found it juz as good as shrek 3... unfortunately... not many of my friends share the same opinion when it comes to shrek 3... they think it isn't as good as the previous ones and tat it was draggy... anyway... back to The Simpsons... yes i do know of a couple of people who din enjoy it either... prob becoz they expected too much from it... they were prob expecting a "laughter fest" juz like Anchorman or Wedding Crashers... oh well... doesn't matter... eagerly awaiting ratatouille now...
*nobody understands*

The bloody shop at Peninsula still doesn't have my City jersey... have been waiting patiently already but season's gonna start and it still isn't in? i'm like some kind of fool going to Penin almost every week asking the same old question of "when will it be in?" which will be met with a constant shrug of the shoulders... dammit... stop mocking me!
*nobody understands*

I'm so ronery

Note to lecturer... what's the point of labeling a textbook as a "core text" when u're only gonna use it for "reference" and none of it will be used for exam? oh pls make me understand...
*nobody understands*

Hands down this is the best day I can ever remember,
I'll always remember the sound of the stereo,
the dim of the soft lights,
the scent of your hair that you twirled in your fingers
and the time on the clock when we realized it's so late
and this walk that we shared together.
The streets were wet
and the gate was locked so I jumped it,
and I let you in.
And you stood at your door with your hands on my waist
and you kissed me like you meant it.
And I knew that you meant it,
that you meant it,
that you meant it,
and I knew,
that you meant it,
that you meant it.
