11th November 2008 (My Life As I Like It, Hana Kimi, Quantum of Solace, Colors, Energy, Above and Below and Holding Out For A Hero)

hi peeps!!!

this is probably the most active i have been in writing on my blog and im currently scouting for any old or new TV series to watch so watch out for new reviews!! :D

i had a chance to look at one blog that i made as a means to vent out my frustration and anger. i have never told anyone abt this blog either and i believe now is the time to let it be known. i made it way back in 2005 and when i read it now, the stuff in it kinda makes sense now :) i only have one post on it but written there is something i wud cherish forever :D

heres the link - http://mylifeasilikeit.blogspot.com/

i have been watching this tv series entitled Hana Kimi. its a japanese series, with a taiwanese version in the market as well. however, The King, my female work mate, told me that the japanese version is by far the nicest one. its abt a girl who goes into a disguise as a boy to enter a school where the boy loves is studying in. it will leave you speechless, it will make u laugh, it will even make u shed a tear. go, find, watch!!! :D

in my last post i had told u abt the movie night my company made. it was the new james bond movie and truth be told.... it wasnt that good.... the only thing keeping me awake was the loud noise and explosions....... i wud recommend that u wait for the DVD to come out... u wud not miss anything....

iv come to realize a few things abt myself and one of them is that i have a choice in every decision i make, every action i do. no matter wat color is present, i have a choice on whether to own it or let it go. i am thankful that i have a few teachers and guides in my life that can show me the way and open up my world :D

iv been listening to a lot of new music lately and heres a couple that might i have just heard.

the first one is 'Above and Below' by The Bravery. i first heard of this song in the movie Never Back Down. the other song is 'Holding Out for A Hero' by Frou Frou. apparently, this song is in the ost album of shrek 2!! as usual here are the lyrics!!!

Above and Below

By The Bravery

Ooowwww

Ooowwww

Sometimes I feel

Like I wanna leave this place for good

Under the ground

I'll live down there without a sound

And never hear

These hissing voices all the same

I'll disappear

Causing living makes me feel ashamed

Ooowwww

Ooowwww

I must believe

There's more above us and below

I must believe

Stranded with this bitch called hope

It keeps me here

When all I wanna do is go

It keeps me here

When all I wanna do is disappear

If this is it

When all we have and ever will

If this is it

Time is running out and standing still

I'll leave today

Cause there's nothing left to keep me here

I'll fade away

I'll turn my back and disappear

The city moves

Lunges up right from the ground

The seething Earth

It opens up and spits us out

This vicious child

Nature never wanted us

This vicious child

A cancer burning black into it's heart

If this is it

When all we have and ever will

If this is it

Time is running out and standing still

I'll leave today

Cause there's nothing left to keep me here

I'll fade away

I'll turn my back and disappear

Ooowwww

Sometimes I feel

Like I wanna leave this place for good

Under the ground

I'll live down there without a sound

And never hear

These hissing voices all the same

I'll disappear

Causing living makes me feel ashamed

If this is it

When all we have and ever will

If this is it

Time is running out and standing still

I'll leave today

Cause there's nothing left to keep me here

I'll fade away

I'll turn my back and disappear

I'll turn my back and disappear

Holding Out for A Hero

By Frou Frou

Where have all the good men gone

And where are all the gods?

Where's the street-wise Hercules

To fight the rising odds?

Isn't there a white knight upon a fiery steed?

Late at night I I toss and turn and dream of what I need

[Chorus]

I need a hero

I'm holding out for a hero 'til the end of the night

He's gotta be strong

And he's gotta be fast

And he's gotta be fresh from the fight

I need a hero

I'm holding out for a hero 'til the morning light

He's gotta be sure

And it's gotta be soon

And he's gotta be larger than life

Somewhere after midnight

In my wildest fantasy

Somewhere just beyond my reach

There's someone reaching back for me

Racing on the thunder and rising with the heat

It's gonna take a superman to sweep me off my feet

[Chorus]

Up where the mountains meet the heavens above

Out where the lightning splits the sea

I would swear that there's someone somewhere

Watching me

Through the wind and the chill and the rain

And the storm and the flood

I can feel his approach

Like the fire in my blood

well i guess thats all peeps!! 

Adios!!!! :D

12th September 2008 (Family Trees, Videos, Coyotes, Let Go, Water in The Face, Process Flows, Unexpected Changes and Shesha)

hello peeps!!!! its another word filled blog post from yours truly!! 

its been a long day for me today, this is my second week working on a friday and not to mention i was late again for the third time this week. been kinda gettin that sort of feeling where you going to be sick. had a slight fever for the past 3 days and its getting worse. i took medicine for it and i hope it wont get anymore worse than it is now *fingers crossed*

anyway, back to wat has happened today. i had a meeting for most part of my day discussing abt process flows abt my teams project that im involved in. it gave me a good insight as to wat pieces of information we are missing. even though we had gone thru the proces flow a fw times already, today was quite different. thanks to SW for pointing out the things that we were missing in our explanation ;)

apparently, while we wer havin our meeting (theres 4 of us by the way, billy, SW, fel and myself), the rest of our team decided to draw this family tree :

its states the names of people that have been in our FA team, past and present. it even lists where they have gone off to and the year they joined. those that are crossed out are not in the team at the moment. its kinda interesting to see how many FA people have moved on to other projects . what really got to me was this modified section of the family tree where i came in:

funny enuf, i agree with this. if u havent guessed it yet, they drew evil wings and horns around my name, a halo and angel wings on azz's name and a faded heart on kitkat's name. i was voted most likely to go to hell when i die (*LOL*) and my team lead keeps on reminding me that too :P but anyway, my life and sins are my own and when the time comes, i'll deal with it ;)

i tried my first attempt at recording a video with my mac and i cant seem to get it to upload with this slow connection at Red Canopy Batu Besurat :( but i will get it up once i can get a better connection tho :)

i've been listening to a few songs for these past few days and my top fav at the moment is Let Go by Frou Frou and Coyotes by Jason Mraz. here are the lyrics!!! 

Let Go by Frou Frou

drink up, baby down

mmm, are you in or are you out

leave your things behind

'cause it's all going off without you

excuse me, too busy you're writing your tragedy

these mishaps

you bubble wrap

when you've no idea what you're like

so let go, jump in

oh well, whatcha waiting for

it's alright

'cause there's beauty in the breakdown

so let go, just get in

oh, it's so amazing here

it's alright

'cause there's beauty in the breakdown

it gains the more it gives

and then it rises with the fall

so hand me that remote

can't you see that all that stuff's a sideshow

such boundless pleasure

we've no time for later now

you can't await your own arrival

you've 20 seconds to comply

so let go, jump in

oh well, whatcha waiting for

it's alright

'cause there's beauty in the breakdown

so let go, just get in

oh, it's so amazing here

it's alright

'cause there's beauty in the breakdown

Coyotes by Jason Mraz

Sipping coffee at a quarter to two

I wake up and i'm dallin and my minds running to you

No wonder i'm a one woman man

She keeps me hot in a jar on the nightstand

I should tell her that she couldn't be more

Opposite then a foot in a door,

Theres no one else I would rather go out with, thats hell when I see them standing there

Me and my mouth we don't mean to be rushing

We talk about deep freely cuz we crushing

I want to shake both sides of the brush ya

Theatrically I say we rock it

And when the coyotes they sing at the park

Till the city lights starts falling

Ride them rodes they winding down till the flame hits the ground

Every motion is closer to touching the coyotes sing when they call in the middle of it.

Coming back for more,

You know I'm coming for you

You know we should be should be together

While we rock, we won't put a stop

Not today not tomorrow.

You better lock your doors

You know why, cuz we want you

Cuz when I kill a liar

I wish the world was a live like you.

I wish the world would help me through

Another repetuity to approach you

Another telepathic rendezvous

I wish you would walk when your jogging

You got a duty to sell in mexico

I got to try to keep you acting shady

I don't like liking you when you walk because

I gotta figure out the snooze alarm

I wanta lay in a place till dawn

I wanta play in the park come on

Now let me see ya alarm in the lesh hello

And when the coyotes escape to new york

Then the city lights has crumbles to the sea

And the girls turned it into lost and found

The flying metal hit the ground

Every motion is closer to touching the coyotes singing

I'm a coyote and I got a taste for your loving

You know I will come for you

You know we should be, we should be together,

Because once we work we want to stop

Not today or tomorrow

Because once we work we want to stop

Not today or tomorrow

You know I will come for you

You know we should be, we should be together,

Because once we work we want to stop

Not today or tomorrow

iv been listening to these two songs and the lyrics really speak to me at the moment hehehe. 

my fren yan was fascinated abt something very weird last night. he wanted to know how it feels like to literally throw water at someones face and i was conveniently infront of him when he said it!!! so i spent most of last night in a nervous state coz i know he will throw the glass of water at me jus for fun!!! but after a while he jus decided that he wud throw the water somewhere else.... and he used my glass as well, lol!!!

i jus found out some very surprising news today. the 500 orphans wont be getting their free meal from BAG Networks. instead, the first 100 orphans will receive free ICDL training instead. well, i figure that is a good move anyway. give a man food and he can eat for a day, teach a man to fish and he can eat all the time. it was an unexpected change of heart but this alternative has good intentions as well :) 

tonight im supposed to meet up with ak amar and some of the BAG interns hopefully for some RnR and shesha as well. with the ban on smoking its been hard to find a place to smoke shesha at all. so guys, if you want shesha and live near batu besurat, drop by Red Canopy to get your fix!! :) im still waiting for them to arrive but im pretty sure they'll show since most of them wont be working 2moro anyway, hehehe.

anyway people, thats my daily dose of gibberish and news.

adios!!! :)
