Your heart will lead you home

I don't usually pay much attention to what's playing on my ipod cuz it's purpose is to cut out surrounding noise...but the following song caught my ear at the gym today, apparently it's from the Tigger movie soundtrack... nice... love winnie the pooh stuff esp piglet...

comforting stuff to perk me up...been having insomnia again & sprained my ankle somehow on the treadmill this morning :(

Your heart will lead you home
Kenny Loggins

sunny days and starry nights
lazy afternoons
you count the castles in the clouds
and hum little tunes

but somehow right before your eyes
the sun fades away
everything is different
and everything has change

if you feel lost and on your own
and far from home
you never alone, you know

just think of your friends
the ones who care
they all will be waiting there
with love to share
and your heart will lead you home

funny how a photograph can take you back in time
to places and embraces
that you thought you left behind

they're trying to remind you
that you're not the only one
that no one is an island
when all has said and done

there'll come a day when you're losing your way
and you won't know where you belong
they say that home is where your heart is
so follow your heart know that you can't go wrong

brain dead...

one more day & 3 articles to go... I can do it...deep breaths!!!!!!

Only God Could Love You More

Found this song on my ipod. Bro must have downloaded it into my iTunes when using my lappy...like the lyrics... perfect wedding song...

Too bad i don't have anyone to share it with me...some day hopefully...in God's time and in God's way.

in the mean time, just like to dedicate this song to my dearest bro...although we've quarrelled more than we were at peace with each other & still in constant battle, i thank God for having u as my baby bro. The many things you've done for me, incl. taking the blame when i do notti things n don't wanna admit it :p i appreciate. Hugz. I'll try to be less whiny n less airheaded k?

Only God Could Love You More
Kelly Nelon Thompson

I asked the Lord for someone,
and I always knew that in God's time and in God's way
it would be someone like you.
All my hopes and all my dreams
were suddenly fulfilled
It's almost unbelievable
our love is in his will.

Only God could love you more,
for he gave me this love I have for you.
What a blessing to know He's your Lord,
For only God could love you more, than I do.

I'm tempted to be saying ,
that we met by chance
But God was there at every turn,
In every circumstance
To share this life God gave me
seems such a fearful task,
But every moment we have shared
is more than I could ask

mental block

mental block, road block, writer's block, whatever u call it i have it. Super hit wall man... Arghh....gonna pull out all my hair.

Perhaps I should stop trying to be a perfectionist and just get the piece out with whatever comes to my mind first. Settled.

-------

HK just made a comment that I perpetually have mental blocks... true... got lousy brain, wat to do?

To buy or not to buy :p

Vivocity is bad for my wallet...was there 2 days in a row with frens over the weekend... Saturday was dinner @ Brotzeit with really nice beers mixed with fruit juice followed by window shopping... Sunday checked out Corduroy Cafe with Rach n had way too much milk from their milkbar (food was great though!) den we popped by River island & Adidas...

Rach has alwiz been a fan of River Island back in London whereas I've prob not stepped into it's shop for more than 10 times in the 4+ years I was there (prefer FCUK, Ted Baker & Oasis more)...but ever since it opened here, tink I'm hooked.

Saw the following Adidas shoe on one of the retail advisor's of River Island (I go there so often that she actually remembers me...hah!) & I just had to pop in next door to check it out... really like it...



However, it'll set me back by $139 though... must control....(or shud i? hee hee...)

Like these too...

大声说爱我

Wasn't too impressed when I first heard this song but it has grown on me after a couple of plays and i'm having it on repeat mode now. Like the lyrics...

if only.......

u knew how i felt about u....

大声说爱我
作词：Sandy.Wing　作曲：Wing

站在街头望着远方灯火
明灭闪烁象在提醒着我
来来往往的人群之中
有多少颗心在黑夜腐
繁星点点到底那颗是我
而你是否也在浩瀚星空
不停转动守在我的身后
天长地久到时间尽头

只要大声说爱我说愿陪在我左右
我会笑着说你将是我的港口
只要你大声说你永远爱我
你会发现有我每一分钟
你会发现有我

void...

something's missing... but I can't pinpoint what.

this void in my heart is as disturbing as the unknown swelling on my left cheek...maybe that's where the void went...

tried letting it all out but somehow the tears aren't flowing no matter how hard i try...maybe i need to dig up The Notebook again n watch it for the 7th time...

I miss u...

Streets of London
Ralph McTell

Have you seen the old man
In the closed-down market
Kicking up the paper,
with his worn out shoes?
In his eyes you see no pride
And held loosely at his side
Yesterday's paper telling yesterday's news

So how can you tell me you're lonely,
And say for you that the sun don't shine?
Let me take you by the hand and lead you through the streets of London
I'll show you something to make you change your mind

Have you seen the old girl
Who walks the streets of London
Dirt in her hair and her clothes in rags?
She's no time for talking,
She just keeps right on walking
Carrying her home in two carrier bags.

In the all night cafe
At a quarter past eleven,
Same old man is sitting there on his own
Looking at the world
Over the rim of his tea-cup,
Each tea last an hour
Then he wanders home alone

And have you seen the old man
Outside the seaman's mission
Memory fading with
The medal ribbons that he wears.
In our winter city,
The rain cries a little pity
For one more forgotten hero
And a world that doesn't care

5kg in 3 months n also to keep my sanity....

昨晚做了个很甜的梦，一整天心情还算漂亮。活在梦里真的很幸福。
但所谓好景不长，我不久后就接了突如其来、意想不到的消息所赏的一剂耳光。梦醒了。
现实生活是残酷的。

坚持与放弃

　　有人曾经告诉我，射手座的人与困难面对面时会很想落跑逃避。
　　射手座的我，那时候听在耳里很不是滋味，极力驳斥了这个说法。
　　言犹在耳，我开始注意自己和身边射手座的人果真如此，才发现自己确实是有这个毛病。
　　我不是不负责任的人，所以在想放弃的时候不会跑掉，但会选择暂时回避一下，等压迫感消失后再回头应战。就比如现在，我原本是应该完成我的试车vodcast video script，可是瞪了稿件很久，脑筋怎么都拐不过来，就逃到这里来发泄发泄。
　　最近在工作上遇到不顺、很想放弃的时候，就会想起两个月前访问的一名老板。
　　这名老板从事印刷业，最近开了一个培训学院，希望为我国印刷业栽培技术人才。虽然又出钱又出力，而且投资额相当庞大，但他没有什么把握能够从中赚钱。
　　商人从商就是为了赚钱，没有把握赚钱的东西一般都不会沾手，但他却自告奋勇地一头栽入，精神可嘉。
　　自认“择善而固执”的他说：“坚持、忍耐加上不停地钻研是我做生意的原则，总有一天会让我熬出头来的。这好比打麻将，只要你不推掉，还是有机会湖一把。”
　　像他这样一个永不言败，永不放弃的人，固然值得我们学习和赞扬。
　　然而坚持并非揭开每个挑战或问题枷锁的钥匙。
　　比如说，有些人可能为了一口气或面子问题，而坚持做一些会让自己继续不开心的事情，把冰冷的环境闹得更僵。
　　这个情况下，与其耿耿于怀，倒不如转过身离开。不欢而散好过长期冷战。
　　再说感情吧。它绝对是再执著，也不会有完美结局的“典范”。
　　当爱情走到尽头时，单方向的执著只会给自己换来无止境的伤痛，勉强只会让自己和对方承受不必要的痛苦。懂得放手就有机会迎接新的春天。
　　有时候放弃是自暴自弃，有时候放弃又是种幸福，你的选择是什么呢？
　　我两个都不选。
　　我比较希望自己能学会拿得起放得下，让自己开心一点，对得起良心更重要。

My Second 5km!

Yay I did it again :) My second 5km! 3rd consecutive working day i'm at the gym in the mornings. It's pretty addictive....okie maybe the sense of fulfillment & satisfaction is...

Actually inclusive of cooling down I did about 5.3km... didn't burn as much calories today though cuz I managed to run a bit faster n finished everything in 40min... did 2km or rowing, 30 crunches n 3 sets of 15 for weights...

Goal: 5kg off in 3 months

Right back to writing articles...ciao!

My First 5km!

Just got down from the gym, managed to do my first 5km jog on the treadmill all at one go! Woo hoo....burnt 450 calories in 45 min....happy :) :) :)

Hopefully this is the start of a fabulous week ahead!
