Such a beautiful 'cheem' movie. It's kind of emo-nemo inducing but it made me fall in love with Aimee Mann's songs in the show. 
So true, so true...



It's not what you thought
When you first began it
You got what you want
Now you can hardly stand it, though
By now you know
It's not going to stop
It's not going to stop
It's not going to stop
Till you wise up

You're sure there's a cure
And you have finally found it
You think one drink
Will shrink you till you're underground
And living down
But it's not going to stop
It's not going to stop
It's not going to stop
Till you wise up

Prepare a list for what you need
Before you sign away the deed
'Cause it's not going to stop
It's not going to stop
It's not going to stop
Till you wise up

No, it's not going to stop
Till you wise up
No, it's not going to stop
So just give up

God, please give me strength and wisdom to wisen up! 
xoxo

About Time

And so I've heard about this film from this friend and I watched it tonight. It made me tear, because it is a sappy love story but no, it's not because the guy and the girl couldn't be together. It was a sappy love story about a family and it made me feel so touched and inspired. About the love of a husband for his wife, to make sure she is the mother of his children. About the love of a father, to protect his children. About the love of a brother for his sister, to help her find true love and happiness. The greatest lesson from the movie, is the love of the father and his son. And it all made sense as we watched on. It is such a lovely, lovely show.

In reality, we do not have the luxury of time travel, to do the regretted actions, to undo the mistakes, to re-write the stories we do not want told. Treat everyday as if it is the last, enjoy every moment and treasure everyone. Don't let time, slip you by. We go by everyday without realizing that it is one day nearer to losing everything. Let's hope it's a remarkable ride!

The Magic Connection
Monday, February 17, 2014 • 12:45 AM • 0 comments


It's not difficult to talk to people but to find a real connection is not the simplest thing ever. It's a God given gift for you to meet people whom you can connect with mentally, emotionally, spiritually and physically. I'm thankful for the people I've met and been able to share a bond with, regardless of how long the period of time we shared, it meant and still mean alot to me.

As years passed, I've grown jaded of meeting new people whom I feel distant from and still have to fill the distance between. I relish the chance encounters with people whom I meet and feel like we have known each other for awhile and are so comfortable to share everything with. This is connection. I've learnt to appreciate it alot.

When an old friend told me, how he isn't sure whether to reconnect with a disconnected relationship, my first response was 'not really', because she had chose to disconnect from him and had supposedly moved onto someone else. However, he shared that he hasn't felt that connected for awhile and he really misses being able to connect so well with someone. Indeed, it is not everyday that you meet someone whom you can talk to readily and easily. In retrospect, I should have told him to give it a second thought. Perhaps, he should give it another try.



I guess I'll just have to keep walking. I know I'll get somewhere, I hope it's a place with good laksa, avocado milkshake and a sweet, nice, cute guy to share with, and of course connect with! Ha!

A Quiet Birthday & Chinese New Year

It hasn't been a pleasant start to my 28th year breathing and living.
What to do? Suck it up and move on loh.

Once again I'm caught up in this vortex of confusion. I know this is not good for me too. I should really walk away. Sigh. When will I be found and when will I find?
The peculiar situation of misfits and misfortune.

A little white house
It’s everything we've dreamed about
I wanted you to know
I’m hanging up my ego
We shouldn't have to fight

Or worry about the bills tonight
I wanted you to know
I want to be your shadow

The mystery's gone
So bring back the sun
We’ll bury this hate
And build it with love


Living by the hour
This grass wasn't greener I found
I wanted you to know
Well I dug you up a rainbow

The mystery's gone
So bring back the sun
We'll bury this hate
And build it with love

And I know, I know I failed you
And I hope, I hope we get through
Sunny days again

Mystery's gone
So bring back the sun
We'll bury this hate
And build it with love

Mystery's gone, Mystery's gone, Myster's gone, Mystery's gone..

A little white house...
our lady peace - bring back the sun

Let the sun shine through the haze and hopefully bring some light back into my life.
Let there be hope.
God, please.
