Songs I Love...

Yea... As you know... I hate soppy love songs... Sometimes they are tolerable but most of the time they are INTOLERABLE...

I'm so much in love with Fort Minor now. I think they are just fantastic!! My fav song is Where'd You Go.

Where'd you go?
I miss you so
Seems like its been forever that you've been gone
She said somedays I feel like shit
Somedays I wanna quit and just be normal for a bit
I don't understand why you have to always be gone
I get along but your trips always feel so long
And I find myself trying to stay by the phone
Because your voice always helps me to not feel so alone
But I feel like an idiot, working my day around a call
And when I pick up I don't have much to say, so
I want you to know it's a little fucked up that
I'm stuck here waiting, at times debating
Telling you that I've had it with you and your career
Me and the rest of the family here singing
Where'd you go?
I miss you so
Seems like it's been forever that you've been gone
Where'd you go?
I miss you so
Seems like it's been forever that you've been gone
Please Come back home
You know, the place where you used to live
Used to barbeque with burgers and ribs
Used to have a little party every halloween
with candy by the pile
but now you only stop by every once in a while
Shit
I find myself just filling my time
With anything to keep the thought of you from my mind
I'm doing fine and I plan to keep it that way
You can call me if you find that you have something to say
And I'll tell you
I want you to know it's a little fucked up that
I'm stuck here waiting, at times debating
Telling you that I've had it with you and your career
Me and the rest of the family here singing
Where'd you go?
I miss you so
Seems like its been forever that you've been gone
Where'd you go?
I miss you so
Seems like its been forever that you've been gone
Please Come back home
I want you to know it's a little fucked up that
I'm stuck here waiting, no longer debating
Tired of sitting and hating and making these excuses
For why you're not around, and feeling so useless
It seems that one thing has been true all along
You don't really know what you've got till its gone
I guess I've had it with you and your career
When you come back I won't be here and you can sing it
Where'd you go?
I miss you so
Seems like it's been forever that you've been gone
Please Come back home

Another song I picked up is from the newest season of American Idol. We are a few episodes behind but yea... They've just eliminated 2 guys and 2 gals from the Top 24. I just love the song that was in the background. Daniel Powter : Bad Day. I remembered watching the mtv. It was a sweet one. Kinda nice...

Where is the moment we needed the most
You kick up the leaves and the magic is lost
They tell me your blue skies fade to grey
They tell me your passion's gone away
And I don't need no carryin' on
You stand in the line just to hit a new low
You're faking a smile with the coffee to go
You tell me your life's been way off line
You're falling to pieces everytime
And I don't need no carryin' on
Cause you had a bad day
You're taking one down
You sing a sad song just to turn it around
You say you don't know
You tell me don't lie
You work at a smile and you go for a ride
You had a bad day
The camera don't lie
You're coming back down and you really don't mind
You had a bad day
You had a bad day
Well you need a blue sky holiday
The point is they laugh at what you say
And I don't need no carryin' on
You had a bad day
You're taking one down
You sing a sad song just to turn it around
You say you don't know
You tell me don't lie
You work at a smile and you go for a ride
You had a bad day
The camera don't lie
You're coming back down and you really don't mind
You had a bad day
(Oh.. Holiday..)
Sometimes the system goes on the blink
And the whole thing turns out wrong
You might not make it back and you know
That you could be well oh that strong
And I'm not wrong
So where is the passion when you need it the most
Oh you and I
You kick up the leaves and the magic is lost
Cause you had a bad day
You're taking one down
You sing a sad song just to turn it around
You say you don't know
You tell me don't lie
You work at a smile and you go for a ride
You had a bad day
You've seen what you like
And how does it feel for one more time
You had a bad day
You had a bad day

One song I can't tolerate after hearing it over and over again is James Blunt "You're Beautiful"... the lyrics got stuck and all I could remember is you're beautiful, you're beautiful and bla bla bla... DUH! Nice one but it gets a little teeny weeny irritating when you hear "you're beautiful" over and over again...

Yesteryears...

I was looking back to the years before I came over. They sort of seemed like yesterday but in reality, it was more than that.

One thing I remember vividly is how unasuming I was, especially in primary. I was quiet but I do get noisy which is a frequent as the moon turn blue. Chinese and Science was my worst subject and they still are... Teachers don't like or hate me. Even I do disappear into thin air, no one would look for me except for the poor guy sitting next to me. Primary 1 to 3 was something ordinary, nothing out of the ordinariness except that the fact was 5 of us (Irving, Ling, Joo Ying, Pai Yien and me) would go back home which was to my aunt's day care centre. Exceptionally for Primary 3 which I remembered David Ng coming to our classroom as a new transfer student and yea, it was like a group of antique fanatics going to a shop full of antiques. We never had any transfer student before unlike the textbooks which talked about students transfering and not fitting in. Well, sorry guys. This guy fitted in right away and I distinctly hating him because I could not get into the top 3... He was number 3 after Pai Yien (No. 1) and I think... Khai Ling? I distantly remembering chasing him (something about a police and thief game which he was the theif) with Pai Yien, Khai Ling and Joo Ying.

In my opinion, Primary 4 to 6 was sheer torture. I couldn't wait to get out of school. The darn teacher is NOT a good teacher. We were "streamed" into the best class... Oh yea... Big deal! We are the creme de la creme of the year. DUH! TORTURE!! She practically looked down on those who are not from her own class (meaning that NOT the class she taught from primary 1 to 3) and we were the crappiest bunch because we came from a class that was NOT famous for being clever. My Chinese was terrible and she pounced on me on that area... When Science came in, I was getting my first red pen marks written in my report cards. (red pen = fail) She never encouraged me and always made fun of me. It was horrendous. Making me stand in front of the teachers' room because I could not memorise an essay perfectly. I used to crap about the essays and got lots of words wrong. I knew what the story meant but I used my own words WHEREAS she wanted the exact replica of the essay. It was so humiliating standing in front, especially when you do have cousins studying in the same school and also a bunch of good friends who go to after school care with you. I could not memorise it as I couldn't even read what the words are. Only students that had been naughty or bad would stand in the teachers' (or staff) room. I broke that rule with another guy and imagining that, that dreaded teacher even suggested that I should consider him to be my boyfriend because we are so bad in memorising. He was lucky, his Chinese is kinda ok but he was lazy. I got on the wrong side of her and yea... DUH!!!!!!!

She looked at me as if I'm dirt and she even tried to force me to transfer class JUST because of my Chinese. My other subjects were sort of above average and I was not the top 10 bottom. In fact I was in the middle ranking, sort of like ranking from 21 to 28. NEVER even once I was the last. She just wanted to get rid of me and me, being the most stubborn person, I refused to leave. I just stood there and cried silently. Even the guy, I think who is Fung Lung, teased me about crying and I denied it vehemently. Stubborn me. My mum claims that it came from my grandpa. Bad years. Everytime I try to talk to a guy, the teacher would immediatly says that it's my boyfriend and I like him and stuff which is so degrading. What kind of teacher is that? *shudders* I'M GONNA BE A TEACHER THAT IS NOT LIKE HER!!!! It's just to humiliating.

Bad years gone by. Actually, all of the years are bad... However it's how you see that year, did you see it with a positive outlook, like that guy is soooo cute and good thing I could see him all year long, or with a negative outlook, like bad year because my results all year long are bad.

Those years in primary school days taught me a thing. Teachers really influence how you act in school. Students trust them with the heart that the teachers have the students' interests in mind and they would try their best to help them all. It was a shock of cold water when I met a teacher that was like her. She even laughed and mocked me because my English was better than Chinese and that I should never read or speak English again because I could not speak Chinese well... Very "encouraging" teacher.

She was shocked when i got kinda great marks for my public examinations. SHOCKED! I was like "Yes!"

In case you wonder, I got 5 As and 2 Bs, with the 2 Bs being Chinese comprehension and essay writing. I was sick that day. My mum had to tell the examiner to let me out during UPSR because i was prone to vomiting. Daddy was in Bulgaria on his Prison Ministry World Conference. So my mum had to take care of me and yea... Miss them a lot. My dad was praying hard that I could write coherently as I was on Panadol when I went in. All was a blur... I had like two subjects and it was a scare!! Science and Chinese essay writing. The hardest subjects.

So, the would-be-teachers or yea... may be parents in future, DON'T EVER degrade a child but DON'T OVER praise them either. It's really hurts them and the scarring stays with them psychologically til the end.

Maybe that's the reason I run away whenever I see my teachers... NO matter if they are fantastic ones or the *ahem* ones... o_O"

I've got my FIRST Levi's and it's a mini skirt... o_O"

Hahahha... Went out AGAIN today... DUH!! I really go out too much. Must curb it!!

Went to Xu's hostel... It's just across Grafton bridge, near to Vincent's medical faculty. Kinda near the hospital actually. Helped her clear up her stuff... She has lots of stuff!!! Yea, this is the second time I'm clearing her stuff and she gave me lots of stuff... Hence, Levi's, Lee's, Elle and LACOSTE!!! WOW!! I've got like eerr... 5 pairs of jeans, one mini skirt, one pair of sport shoes, 3 pairs of kinda slippers kind shoes, 2 jackets, one long trench coat, erm... two tops. okay... I've got no where to put those stuff!! ARGH!!!

Went to sing Karaoke... Hahahah... New experience and the thing that strikes me is that it's so... My Korean friend, Jin brought us to this Korean karaoke. Before we had to go in, she had to speak using the intercom to get the code to then type it before going in... And you have to be a korean to get in!!! Cz you had to speak korean before they let you in... SO EXCLUSIVE!!!

Sang for one hour... K, I sound soooo weird. HAHAHAH!! Took those sticker photos again to like as a memory. It was fun... Kinda cool... Pity they had really weird mtvs for the chinese songs and all, ALL the songs are OUTDATED!!! Hahahahahahaha...

Fun day... Lots of stuff... One happy girl...

Vincent is watching what cranium nerve thingie on the dvd and I WANNA WATCH America's Next Top Model!!!

Such a great day!!

Well... I've not been DOING my assignments. MUST MUST MUST not procastinate anymore. I'll die of the workload if I do procastinate this few days again. DUH!!!

Such a lovely day. Koey texted (or should I say sms) me early this morning to ask if i could meet her up. It's kinda impossible cz I've gotta go to my course mate house to bake muffins for our tech project! Yea, we bake muffins!! HAhahah... Called her and asked if it's alright I meet her up in the morning and leave around noon. Yeap. Took lots of those sticker photos thingie... We were soo soooooo cute!! Hahahha... I guess this is the first time I feel comfortable with my hair. I used to be so so uncomfortable with my hair and looking great... (YEA! I'M A GAL!!! I DO care what I look like...) HEheheheh... Lots of great photos. I'll try to take a photo of them. Hehehe...

Came back home. Picked up the post and guess what??? Eleanor's letter is here!!! YAY!!! I miss that girl. Opened the package and got a little surprise. She knew I had problems a few weeks back and I was really depressed. She sent me a little notebook with ALL handwritten verses from the Bible to encourage me. I don't care how cheap the notebook or what, it's what inside the notebook that makes me cry. She even had a cd full of Christian songs that she listens when she's down. I'M SO TOUCHED by her gesture. She's such a darling, sweet sweet gal... She also posted something on dating and marriage from a seminar she attended. Yea, I've been thinking about relationships but, not seriously. I'm thinking what the Lord would prepare for me... God really blessed me through Eleanor and it's sometimes comforting that you know there's a Christian friend that you could count on. I've got my big sister here, Cheryl. You would not believe that I didn't know her like a year ago and now, she's my big big sister and I can tell her anything at all. She gives great advice and is a good listener. I still have Koey to talk to and she's fantastic as well. God's blessing is really something and it's great that I know I've got someone to count on.

Went to my course mate house. WOW!! It's by the beach and it's a lovely place. She's such a nice girl... Heheheh... I was late because Vincent was late... HAhahaha... When I reached there, the others have just finished and the muffins were baking... Kezia (the girl's house) offered to drop me back but yea, I declined. She's not feeling that well and I didn't want to bother her anyway. Lovely girl.

Fantastic day and Eleanor's present made the day!!

And Vincent cooking is really... NICE cz I do not have to do it!! +)

TV Shows...

I've been watching bloody particular tv show. Once a day... At night.

Mon:
Image hosting by Photobucket
Grey's Anatomy. Bloody heck! I love this show when it was in it's first season. It's just so... Intense. Now it's in its second season over here. We are all jammed at the tv screen just to watch it. Very complicated now and I'm getting a headache watching it. I do love George, poor guy... Keeps getting the worst when his room mates are in a bad mood AND he always gets bully. So darn cute!!

Tues:


Image hosting by Photobucket
If possible, I'll watch Charmed. If not, HOUSE!!! YAY!! It''s my fav show now. Even Vincent says it's better than Grey's Anatomy (he used to love Grey's til it got a BIT too complicated in relationships). Main character is Dr. House and now we are watching him under Dr. Foreman who used to be under him (getting complicated here...) but hahaha because of something he was under supervision for 3 weeks and supervisor is FOREMAN!!! This tues was Foreman's first time as his supervisor but I do agree that Dr. House is so much better as a dianogstic. Really really really don't want to miss an episode of this show. Too exciting to miss. Very medical thing though... MAKES Vincent practise his knowledge on it I HOPE!

Wed:
Image hosting by Photobucket
What do I watch on wed liao?? Hmm... Lost my track of mind there for a while... YEA!! I watch Bones. It's a new series and is as good as CSI man... It's sooo nice and yea... Lots of quips and fun there but I do get nauseous when i see the dead bodies... EEEEWWW!!!! Lots of twists and mind blowing episodes but i love it... LOVE IT!!! Bones rock!!

I used to watch "Lost" on wed, but yea... I fell asleep on the first episode of the second season man. It's getting soo draggy and I just fell asleep on the sofa. Apparently not only I'm the one sleeping but Mel was sleeping too... See... Proof that it's boring!!!! Watched a few more episodes but yea, not getting me excited bout it though...

Thurs:
LAPTOP DAY!!! meaning, no tv shows worth watching man...

Fri:

Hahaha... Reality shows man... it ROCKS!!! America's Next Top Model. I don't look at the contestants. They are so ugly. I look at Tyra Banks. Wooo HOO!!! She has attitude spelled out in CAPITOL LETTERS!! I dun wanna miss it. Cz it's fun predicting who gets out. Usually it's the gal that gets the most camera coverage... Hahahah.. .This season has a lesbian gal in it. I think she's just LAME. The other gals are just so so... I still prefer the gals from the previous season. However I didn't manage to catch all of it cz I went home... so still no idea who won it lol....

Image hosting by Photobucket
Me love Ghost Whisperer oso.. .Mmmm.. .Why did I watch that show?? No idea... Weelll... It's title speaks 4 itself. Kinda nice la but scary cz yea... HOW CAN SHE SPEAKS TO GHOSTs??? But the plot kinda cliche... HAHAHAHA!!! All the ghosts would yea... get on to a better life. AS IF!!

Sat and Sun are mostly church activities... No time for tv anyway. 5 days a week... Plus American Idol?? One hour everyday. The new season. I guess we are like a few episodes later than the US...

I LOVE NZ TV!!! If i'm still in Malaysia I really wonder I would have to wait a year o 2 before some hot shot tv picks it up... AND it's usually on ASTRO!! Not funny man...

It's gonna be the hols soon. SAD CZ I CAN'T GO BACK and haf fun.. .Yea... must remind myself to ask yeu to get some dvds from Msia as HE SO RICH GO BACK!!!! GGGGrrrrrrr...

My mum says I'm an introvert... I guess I'm that in ways. I don't speak to people I don't know very well. And usually it takes me like a year to talk to them. And I've no interest in talking to the youth in our church back home. I remember once Jo n Philip came up I think to talk but yea, I just moved away. I feel uncomfortable and I'VE NO IDEA HOW TO TALK TO THEM!!!! Guys, any ideas I can be more extrovert???

Oh, must ask Dong DOng how to be more creative at accompaniment. HAHAH... His leg is still not out of it's cast yet.

Anna still has a few more weeks before she comes back. Miss her man...

\/(^^.)

You all might noticed that I've changed the skin AGAIN...

DUH... I do that once in a blue moon... I feel that the last one was getting a bit teeny weeny annoying... SO CHANGE lah...

I really liked Kim's blog lolz... Her's so cool... Mebe u will c a second one just like hers... HAHAHA...

I've been at NZ for like erm?? Exactly one year? Excluding the summer hols which I went home. It's getting colder and colder... Autumn is already here but the leaves are not changing it's colour yet. Annaliesa left for China lolz... Miss her very BIG expressive face... LOLZ!!

Jessie is missing Anna and she's really making me annoyed... NAh... How could I be annoyed with a gal so erm... Cute???? My vocab is really limited these days. Wonder why...

I can't find a job. Tried Starbucks, anywhere but FAIL!!!! Haiz... I was looking forward to have my own pocket money. I can buy the cute stuff I am soooo tempted to buy. AND i could also save my parents' money... $$$


I really miss the children at ANI... They are to adorable to forget. Now i'm just debating whether to go for the new entry (Years 1 -2) or the Intermediate... ARGH!!! NO IDEA!!!! It's not as easy as I thought it was. Lots of planning beforehand and also paperwork. I'm the most disorganised person and I LOVE procrastinating. BAD BAD BAD HABIT!!!

Time really flies... It seems like I've just started off in NZ. Now, half of the semester is almost gone and... DUH! I've been in Uni... I still can't sink that notion into my brain that I'm a Uni student already...

Oh, the youth went apple and pear picking last Saturday... Along with all the adults... (>.<) I'm not exactly a BIG fan of going out with the older ones... Had LOTS TONS of fun... I was being laughed at for not being able to speak Cantonese... Alex kept teasing me, saying "Talk in Cantonese QUICK!!!" I could only say one sentence... "DON'T KNOW HOW TO SPEAK LAH!!!" Excellent time to fellowship. I never really talked to Alex before and huh, I'm sad to say that I'm a few bit inches shorter than him... Hahahha... Cz I keep calling Ah Di "Shorty" Hehehehehe... I'm so naughty... Can't I grow up???

p.s. KIMMIE if u read this blog... CAN U GIVE ME TIPS ON CHANGING THIS BLOODY HTML??? I'm getting really blurr and annoyed...
