In Another World that I See



It's amazing what technology can do yeah?

Anyway, been on MC today, as I fell sick over the weekend. It was a good thing too, as I managed to bring my mum to visit her specialist at the hospital. Treated her to Jang Shou at Esplanade after that - which is now my latest fave Korean BBQ hangout! You won't believe how I have switched from hating korean food 6 months ago to adoring it now after eating there! laughs. Guess it's indeed a thin line between love and hate yeah!

Sigh, and it's back to work tomorrow again; and silently hoping for christmas to come soon too. : ) Gonna have dinner with gab and ryan, and drinks with my colleagues on Fri. Gosh, and yeah I really have to start studying for my CFA soon; sOtz, where's your discipline gone to! haha..oh well hope stanley's gonna start mugging soon too, so I can have someone to pressure me to start.

Alrights, gonna head downstairs for dinner. Buenas Noches!

A beautiful song by Steven Curtis Chapman! You can download it here.

Cinderella

She spins and she sways
To whatever song plays
Without a care in the world
And I'm sitting here wearing
The weight of the world on my shoulders

It's been a long day
And there's still work to do
She's pulling at me
Saying "Dad, I need you

There's a ball at the castle
And I've been invited
And I need to practice my dancing
Oh, please, Daddy, please?"

So I will dance with Cinderella
While she is here in my arms
'Cause I know something the prince never knew
Oh, I will dance with Cinderella
I don't want to miss even one song
'Cause all too soon the clock will strike midnight
And she'll be gone...

She says he's a nice guy and I'd be impressed
She wants to know if I approve of the dress
She says, "Dad, the prom is just one week away
And I need to practice my dancing
Oh, please, Daddy, please?"

So I will dance with Cinderella
While she is here in my arms
'Cause I know something the prince never knew
Oh, I will dance with Cinderella
I don't want to miss even one song
'Cause all too soon the clock will strike midnight
And she'll be gone

She will be gone

Well, she came home today with a ring on her hand
Just glowing and telling us all they had planned
She says, "Dad, the wedding's still six months away
But I need to practice my dancing
Oh, please, Daddy, please?"

So I will dance with Cinderella
While she is here in my arms
'Cause I know something the prince never knew
Oh, I will dance with Cinderella
I don't want to miss even one song
'Cause all too soon the clock will strike midnight
And she'll be gone

"Never Gonna Let You Go" by Sergio Mendes

Never gonna let you go - Sergio Mendes

Another one of the oldies which I fell in love with! : )

Well, I had a tiring week, but a great weekend! Watched Quantum of Solace with gab and ryan on friday - and one of the rare times gab managed to keep awake while ryan surprisingly slept! laughs. sat/sun was a sleepover at sentosa with sue, shee and san! booked a room at treasure resort, and it was fun playing citadels, cards, and the luge! had dinner at sakae (sa-ka-eh) while secretly watching parts of Songs of the Sea! And after we had red wine and cheesecake back at the hotel before dozing! Just the ideal day out!

So guess it's back to starting another new week all over again! Only that this week's asia conference, and I can't wait to go!

*And keeping my fingers crossed that i can knock off early this week!*

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I was as wrong as I could be to let you get away from me
I'll regret that move for as long as I'm living
But now that I've come to see the light
All I wanna do is make things right
So just say the word and tell me that I'm forgiven

You and me
We're gonna be better than we were before
I loved you then but now I intend
To open up and love you even more
This time you can be sure

I'm never gonna let you go
I'm gonna hold you in my arms forever
Gonna try and make up for all the times
I hurt you so
Gonna hold your body close to mine
From this day on we're gonna be together
Oh, I swear this time
I'm never gonna let you go

Looking back now it seems so clear
I had it all when you were here
Oh, you gave it all and I took it for granted
But if there's some feeling left in you
Some flicker of love that still shines through
Let's talk it out
Let's talk about second chances

Wait and see
It's gonna be sweeter than it was before
I gave some then but now I intend
To dedicate myself to giving more
This time you can be sure

新不了情



心若倦了, 泪也干了
这份深情, 难舍难了
曾经拥有, 天荒地老
已不见你, 暮幕与朝朝
这一份情, 永远难了
愿来生还能再度拥抱
爱一个人, 如何厮守到老
怎样面对一切, 我不知道
回忆过去, 痛苦的相思忘不了
为何你还来拨动我心跳
爱你怎么能了
今夜的你应该明了
缘难了, 情难了

Teared as I watched this song on TV. Contrary to what I'd always thought - I thought love was what makes your heart beat faster when you see that special someone; and that which spurs you to think about the person all day long - but guess maybe I was wrong.

As I took a test at work some time back, it asked what state of emotion love puts you in - and of the choices I had, I selected excitement. And surprisingly, the right answer was that love itself is a state of calmness - that it's whom u feel most at ease with and what makes you feel most at peace. Hmmm it's so simple yeah, yet so intricate. And maybe that's why it's so easy to lose your way as well.

Well, somehow, I hope I can find my way back. : )

At Amy's anniversary party on Halloween with my work buddy Rachel!


With Amy as Wednesday from Addam's Family!

Hola!

Just came back from dinner with Jeong Bin, Chor Guan and Cheryl, who's flying off tml to Philippines on project! Ate at Minori, and glad they loved the buffet there! Haha...but think it's totally destroyed my diet though! oops.

Anyway, been having a good week through and through! Won a pair of movie tics to 20th century boys last week, so watched it with gab on sat before we chilled at Harry's bar to watch soccer and play citadels with darling Meeshell, gab's good friend Ryan and Stanley. After which I watched another movie on sun - High School Musical (absolutely loved it), and had a Deepavali party at Vivienne's place in the evening. Monday was a family day out at JB where we visited Uncle George and shopped at Jusco. Following, I had a kind week, before Friday came, where I attended a women's networking session at UBS, and after, headed down to Amy's 10th year wedding anniversary, in which she threw a private party at Mimolette! And seriously, I thought Mimolette was one of the hottest places to hang out on a Halloween, as people there were all dressed up to the nines as very interesting characters indeed! : )

And ohh, I forgot to mention, BBG this week was totally awesome. Attended with sue, gab and ryan, and thought that both the offering message and main sermon were solid! Am looking so much forward to service this week as the A&B weekend is here. Gonna meet liyun for lunch tml too, before heading down to Sufeng's wedding!

Gosh, I lost count of time - think I'd better pop into bed, before I turn up as a zombie for choir tml.

Have a fabulous weekend!
