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

8th November 2008 (Jakarta, Your Guardian Angel, Friendship, Clothes and James Bond)

hello peeps!!!

im back again with another rant!!

my best friend, yat , is going to jakarta for 3 months as an intern for ASEAN. its a good opportunity for her since her life her isnt really going so well. although i will miss her but i wish her all the best :)

i dun recall mentioning that my fren azz has left the company. on his last day, he showed us a video. it was very nostalgic but the song that was playing with it almost moved me to tears. if i have the time i'll try to upload the video :) the title of the song is Your Guardian Angel by The Red Jumpsuit Apparatus and as usual, here are the lyrics!!!!

Your Guardian Angel

By

The Red Jumpsuit Apparatus

When I see your smile, 

Tears roll down my face.

I can't replace.

And now that I'm strong, I have figured out, 

How this world turns cold and it breaks through my soul.

And I know I'll find deep inside me, 

I can be the one.

I will never let you fall. (let you fall.)

I'll stand up with you forever.

I'll be there for you through it all. (through it all.)

Even if saving you sends me to heaven.

It's okay, 

It's okay, 

It's okay-ay-ay-ay-ay.

Seasons are changing, 

And waves are crashing, 

And stars are falling all for us.

Days grow longer and nights grow shorter, 

I can show you I'll be the one. 

I will never let you fall. (let you fall.)

I'll stand up with you forever.

I'll be there for you through it all. (through it all.)

Even if saving you sends me to heaven.

'Cause you're my, you're my, my-e-y-e-y, 

My true love, my whole heart.

Please don't throw that away.

'Cause I'm here... for you! 

Please don't walk away and, 

Please tell me you'll stay! 

Whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh! 

Stay! 

Whoa-oh! 

Use me as you will! 

Pull my strings just for a thrill! 

And I know I'll be okay, 

Though my skies are turning grey! (grey! grey! ) 

I will never let you fall! 

I'll stand up with you forever! 

I'll be there for you through it all, 

Even if saving you sends me to heaven! 

I will never let you fall! 

I'll stand up with you forever! 

I'll be there for you through it all, 

Even if saving you sends me to heaven!

today at lunch i came to visit yvon, one of the people i have come to know for the past few years. we had an interesting chat about people and ourselves. i came to realize that no matter how bad of an influence a friend can be, it gives me no right to jus up and disappear from their lives. i'll jus have to make a choice, lose a few good frens that i have come to know and love, or be by their side thru thick and thin regardless of how they may treat u. at first i was not so sure i'd like to do it but after giving it some thought, i am the only person that can make choices for myself. so now its up to me. now for the million dollar question, what am i going to do, with my one wild and precious life? ;)

yesterday, yat and i went shopping for clothes and shoes. wats the occasion? the company is arranging a movie night this sunday to watch the latest James Bond movie :D so i decided to bring along yat. first we had dinner at ideal in gdg, wasnt the most satisfying dinner i have had but the company i ate with was wat mattered :D actually, the idea to get clothes came abt during dinner. the original plan was to jus have dinner and then go home. but one thing led to another, so we ended up spending up to 10pm going around gdg, shopping. it was great fun~~~~~~ with my colour-blindness, im not a really good judge of wat colours are nice. thats why having her around helped me out. i am going to miss her when she's not around~~~ most of the stuff bought last night was for me but there are 2 items that she bought for herself. a pair of sunglasses and shoes. actually, i paid for the sunglasses coz she wanted me to buy it for her. anyway, at the end of it, we wanted to go for a drink but decided not to coz we were both tired~~~

well peeps, i guess thats it for now!

more updates will come! whenever i feel like it of coz ;)

adios!!
