I pray and I would give a few of my years to see her healthy and happy, to receive her blessings, to hear her stories of yesteryears.

Today I've also been reminded that I used to listen to Chinese songs. Never knew why they often have to be so emo-nemo.


So true.
 

the song i heard on the radio that reminded me of all these other songs...



other random oldies that bring back memories of my chinese song loving years





Mega old school song that I really like!
夢田 潘越雲


What's the seed you sow and what have you reaped?






Mama, don't worry.

A Perfect Day by Danny Cope

There's nothing in the way,
There's nothing left to say,
There's just the perfect day,
For us to use.

There's nothing else to see,
No better place to be,
Now that you're here with me,
And I'm with you.

Why don't we wait here,
I just want to stay here,
Why don't we wait here,
Now.

So please don't move an inch,
Don't ever change a thing,
Just let me take this in,
And hold it tight.

Why don't we wait here,
I just want to stay here,
Why don't we wait here,
Now.


The perfect song to listen as we look into each others' eyes and be lost forever.

It has now become a place where i'll remember it for the flyboys.




 Always had a love-hate relationship with sunsets. It's always so beautiful end to the day. No matter how pleasant or how horrible the day is, it ends with a dramatic crimson sunset. So beautiful yet so transient. Ah, isn't this life? Our fragile but beautiful life.

It is funny how it is often more wonderful to watch it abroad than right here. Probably because it's often exhilarating to be in a foreign land seeing the same sun setting in the far horizon. It's amazing how we can be far apart and still be looking at the same sun, breathing the same air and be under the same skies. 

The last time I was in Sydney, never knew it was the last of you and me. I probably was the one who played it out that way too. Don't think I've changed much in looks or so i hope, (Thank God) but a great deal of other things about me and around me have changed. Not sure if I welcomed them all but it's not something I can do much about but to embrace and move on.


And so this might be my favorite photo before the sunset.


I'm stuck in a loop that I want to get out of!


Pretty sure I've embedded this video before but here you go...

Hello stranger.



Hope. Love. Life. Faith.

Christmas and New Year

Is it too early for resolutions? I think I may have a couple of things I wanna achieve, things I've been thinking about but have not got down to really complete them.

Watched a not-worth-the-penny movie yesterday. But something did stick. The girl was hot, nice, smart and he did have an addiction but his sister saw through all that and told him that the girl has her own agenda - she wants what she wants and didn't really care about him at all.

Hope, we must have. God bless us all.

I am hooked onto this show and I've finished both seasons. Can't wait for Season 3 but that's only if Parker Young or Ryan Shay is in it!




He is so cute in the show. Although he's really the all-brawns-kinda-dumb jock in the show, he's been portrayed as the very nice, decent jock who fell deeply in love with Tessa, the smart, brash, red-head city girl. I'm a sucker for nice guys especially when you see how cute he is in this ridiculous gear...




and also when his chiseled features included his hot bod...


and his soulful, innocent boy appeal... oh those deep-set bedroom eyes...and the sharp nose...




most definitely, the clean-cut boy attraction for me.


For all you know, I might watch 'Enlisted' just to see him.

He was duper sweet in the show despite being the himbo. I think his innocence and no facade or acting cool nature in the show was very appealing to me. He was always the first who came back to her, no matter who started the fight and she, on her part, apologises too. Having walked on earth and meeting many people who hide their feelings more than showing it out loud and making things so complicated, he was the dreamy boy of mine.

On a side note, Dallas may be the divorced, rich and super nice, vain, hot lady in the show but she had many moments that struck a chord with me. When she started dating George, she told George that there were many men who were wealthier and more romantic than he is and would want to date her and she said, " ...but I chose you. I chose you because you made me feel different".

They kissed in the rain while George held the umbrella up and she commented that it would have been more romantic if he had put the umbrella down. He replied, "You're bossy" and in return, she said "I'll change". But she still pushes his umbrella down and he still took the umbrella up, all this, while kissing.

Throughout the show, Dallas often had her own ideal definition of what 'romance', 'dates' should be which George couldn't live up to and she often had to tell him what she would prefer. But don't get me wrong, they were able to connect and support each other most of the times and that is why they are together.

The show ended with Dallas not trusting that George really loves her.  And what struck me most? When George bought her dream home like how she has described to him but he became exasperated when she cries and thinks that he has learnt to love her but he has never really been in love with her. He said "I've jumped through hoops for you...but you always move the hoops further away".

We, outsiders, would think that from all that, he does love her. But we can't feel the same way. The events that happened and how they got together probably contributed to that insecurity.
And so I'd still say, noone knows best but the one in the situation would feel most.

Spring Fling

Friends in the cold winter rain
Together on one spring day
My heart, I held no reins
In your arms, I'd rather lay

Kissed me once before I left
Nothing more and nothing less
There and then, he committed theft
As I lie in misery, I confess

Till I see you in summer.

  • I feel like going London or NYC for Christmas.
  • I want to fall in love again. I want to be loved and to love in return.
  • I want to start something.
  • I want a good change.
Am I really just a bright spark that fell onto the ground and lost its sparkle?

I've a new love for Lang Leav's works. Shall buy her book. A few of which I'm feeling inclined towards these days...

The Bittersweet Escapade

Sometimes we travel to seek ourselves, to find peace and to move on. Things work in strange ways to get you away from where you are but return you to the same state, with different people and different situations but the same damn feeling.

I'm still hopeful.

The songs I brought home with me. The spark hurts...I guess I do mind.





Your mouth is a revolver firing bullets in the sky.
Your love is like a soldier, loyal till you die.
And I'’ve been looking at the stars for a long, long time.
I’'ve been putting out fires all my life.
Everybody wants a flame, but they don’'t want to get burnt.
And today is our turn.


Days like these lead to, nights like this leads to love like ours, 
You light the spark in my bonfire heart.
People like us, we don’t need that much.
Just someone that starts, starts the spark in our bonfire hearts.


This world is getting colder. Strangers passing by.
No one offers you a shoulder. No one looks you in the eye.
But I’ve been looking at you for a long, long time.
Just trying to break through, trying to make you mine.
Everybody wants a flame, they don’t want to get burnt
Well today is our turn.

Days like these lead to nights like this leads to love like ours, 
You light a spark in my bonfire heart.
People like us, we don’t need that much.
Just someone that starts, starts a spark in our bonfire hearts.

Hmm, our bonfire hearts
our bonfire hearts
Uh, our bonfire hearts
You light the spark

People like us, we don’t need that much.
Just someone that starts, starts a spark in our bonfire hearts.

Days like these lead to nights like this leads to love like ours, 
You light a spark in my bonfire heart.
People like us, we don’t need that much.
Just someone that starts, starts a spark in our bonfire hearts.
our bonfire hearts



I know that we are upside down
So hold your tongue and hear me out
I know that we were made to break
So what? I don't mind.

You kill the lights, I'll draw the blinds
Don't dull the sparkle in your eyes
I know that we were made to break
So what? I don't mind.

Are you gonna stay the night
Are you gonna stay the night
Oh oh oh, are you gonna stay the night?
Are you gonna stay the night
Doesn't mean we're bound for life
So oh oh oh, are you gonna stay the night?

Are you gonna stay the night
Doesn't mean we're bound for life
So oh oh oh, are you gonna stay the night.

I am fire a gasoline, come pour yourself all over me
We'll let this place go down in flames only one more time
You kill the lights, I'll draw the blinds
Don't dull the sparkle in your eyes
I know that we were made to break
So what? I don't mind.

Are you gonna stay the night
Are you gonna stay the night
Oh oh oh, are you gonna stay the night?
Are you gonna stay the night
Doesn't mean we're bound for life
So oh oh, are you gonna stay the night
Night night night night night....
