where do u find ur happiness
juz watched the great happiness space.... it's a documentary on host clubs in japan and the hosts themselves... mmm.... kinda thought invoking show too... selling ourselves..to make tonnes of money...providing a space for clients to be happy at the expense of our own happiness... kinda like one big paradox to me... where everyone is lying to each others... i guess... i too have a phobia to trust...
on a side note....fri's here!

<<一个人的借口>>
走...我一个人走
找...找一个出口...
无须你牵着我的手...
我依然能够找到自由...
想...想着我的自由...
放弃了一切所有...
原来忘了当初...
最原始的尽头...
心...碎了没有...
一切...也成为借口...
不管到底有没有...
我们始终是朋友...

I need a girl... P. Diddy feat. Usher
I need a girl to ride, ride, ride
I need a girl to make my wife
I need a girl who's mine oh mine
I need a girl in my life
Yo, I'm internationally known on the microphone
I got it all, but I really need a wife at home
I don't really like the zone, never spend the night alone
I got a few, you would like to bone
But, chicks don't romance me, don't tickle my fancy
Only Tiffany, Nancy, that's not what my plans be
I need a girl that could stand me, raise me a family
Go to trips at the Lancy, trip to the Grammy's cause
Most of these girls be confusin' me
I don't know if they really love me or they usin' me
Here's the money, or maybe you ain't used to me
'Cos you was depressed and now you abusin' me
That's why I need a girl that be true to me
Know 'bout the game, and know how to do to me
Without a girl on my side, I ruin me
Forget the word, it's just you and me
Now let's ride.....
I need a girl to ride, ride, ride
I need a girl to make my wife
I need a girl who's mine oh mine
I need a girl in my life
I need a girl to ride, ride, ride
I need a girl to be my wife
Nobody else 'cos she's all mine
I need a girl in my life
Yo, now I have had a lot of women in my lifetime
But see it's not a lot of women that got the right mind
I done had pretty chicks with all the right features
And hoodrat chicks that only rock sneakers
Cellphones and beepers, and know how to treat ya
You break her heart, she'll walk out and leave ya
I find a girl, I'ma keep her
'Cos now I'm gettin money and the game gettin' deeper
I want some real, I need somebody I can chill with
I need somebody I can build with
I need somebody I can hold tight
With the time and no full limits, no right
Anytime we together would feel so right
You the girl I been lookin' for my whole life
God bless me, I'm glad I got the insight
It's 'cos of you girl, now I understand life
I need a girl...
I need a girl to ride, ride, ride
I need a girl to make my wife
I need a girl who's mine oh mine
I need a girl in my life
I need a girl to ride, ride, ride
I need a girl to be my wife
Nobody else 'cos she's all mine
I need a girl in my life
I had a girl that would've died for me
Didn't 'preciate her so I made her cry for me
Every night she had tears in her eyes for me
Quarter K's, shorty took the whole ride for me
First we were friends then became lovers
You was more than my girl, we was like brothers
All night we would play fight under covers
Now you gone, can't love you like I really wanna
But everytime I think about your pretty smile
And how we used to drive the whole city wild
Damn I wish you would've had my child
A pretty little girl wit' Diddy's smile
This is wild
All dem days that I reminisce
About the way I use to kiss dem pretty lips
But as long as you happy, I'ma tell you this
I love you girl and you're the one that I will always miss
I love you, yeah
I need a girl to ride, ride, ride
I need a girl to make my wife
I need a girl who's mine oh mine
I need a girl in my life
I need a girl to ride, ride, ride
I need a girl to be my wife
Nobody else 'cos she's all mine
I need a girl in my life
I need a girl to ride, ride, ride
I need a girl to make my wife
I need a girl who's mine oh mine
I need a girl in my life
I need a girl to ride, ride, ride
I need a girl to be my wife
Nobody else 'cos she's all mine
I need a girl in my life
I need a girl to ride, ride, ride
I need a girl to make my wife
I need a girl who's mine oh mine
I need a girl in my life
I need a girl to ride, ride, ride
I need a girl to be my wife
Nobody else 'cos she's all mine
I need a girl in my life

寂寞是临睡的习惯
习惯是一个人守着
冰冷的床和烟灰缸
没有你的孤单
想你在这样的夜晚
打开窗吹着冷风
故意把灯关上
试着想像你笑的模样
不懂我的爱在你生命中
占据多少份量
让你哭泣却是我心深处最痛的伤
最残酷的惩罚
I will never try to break your heart
我不愿这样
让爱情不由自主
陷入一场
两败俱伤的战
I will never try to break your heart
我真的不想
再面对没有你的寂寞夜晚
烟雾迷茫的孤单

我爱雨天... 听着雨的声音...听着它们滴哒在窗上... 看着它们从天落下... 证明了它们的勇气...
能够从高处落下... 碎身在地上...化为一滩滩的水, 回归大海...
人是否也能一样...勇往直前...甚至粉身碎骨...也一样冲下去.... i wonder...
我 待 着 堅 定 的 心 情
推 開 你 的 影 子 活 的 更 好
加 上 把 這 都 告 上 一 段 落
釋 放 自 己 有 一 天 還 得 原 諒

time for a hero...
in life...everyone has a hero... everyone has someone that they look up to and aspire to be...for some, it may be just a sportsman, a businessman or even someone elderly in their family... however... wat are the conditions for a person to become a hero??
must he have super powers like superman, spiderman??
or must he have like skills like beckham, ronaldo or wateva?
or mabbe even rich like donald trump... i guess not...
i guess heros are heros because they do wat normal ppl did not...endure wat normal ppl cannot... and thus achieve success beyond normal ppl... but mabbe the pre-requisite is not to give up...for if u give up...you'll nvr be able to endure on.... much less talk abt achievement...

2nd chances...
in life... it's not often u are given 2nd chances for the things that you've done... and tt's the things that give rise to regrets... unlike games or wat... u can juz save and reload the part of life that you did wrongs that cause the game over...and try to make better decisions or conserve that item or even find a alternative way to defeat the boss... that's in games...
but life... every mistakes that you make...will return to haunt you... imo, arguments can be settled but never forgotten... life's lidat... mistakes will juz return... mothers can take things that u did when u were a small kid n use it on u to blame u or guilt you or scold you... or mabbe tt's juz gals in generals... i'm sure those frens with gfs will find such a scenario familiar....things that happened ago just start to be thrown up by them to fuel the current arguments to greater heights... therefore doing injustice to the phrase " let bygones be bygones"...
the ugliness of such a scenario alwaes seems to disgust me... thru the settling of the argument... it was mutually agreed to let the issue past liao...and yet...after countless times... previous arguments are brought up...zzz...that sux man...so...to moms, ppl's gf... try not to dig up "treasures" eh... for u duno which piece of treasure will cost u ur life...
and to the few frens that i know are alwaes there..thanx ar! being sick is not a easy task man... it sux being sick...ahaha...

damn this august...
feeling kinda weird...kinda lethargic...but kinda sleepless... kinda wanna talk...but kinda no one to talk to... somehow...walking n drifting along on a empty road at nite seems kinda interesting....listening to music... kinda good for thinking... perhaps sometimes it's just those kind of days again... or mabbe it's just because it's august.. the melancholy is kinda stifling...
i wish i could have someone to talk to... or rather...someone that i am willing to talk to...

gundams...fundams..
being unemployed is like so not a good thing...you'll have too much time on hand...so you'll find ppl to go out... and going out equates to spending money...thankfully...my previous few trips out all got ppl blanjah me makan... thanks jie, elvin, pravin and marcus ar! ahha...when i get my pay...it'll be my turn liaoz...confirm will treat you all back...
so, apart from going out...been watching quite a fair bit of tele too... somehow, the 9pm chan 8 show kinda intruige me... yeah..it's army theme...abit lame... but somehow i like to have a good laugh when i'm watching it... but mmm.... i find that the guys in the show abit too "痴情".... in shows, guys staying devoted to gals and doing so much for gals will led them to getting the gals in the end..aka final episode... but in real life...it doesn't seems to work that way... and shows are supposed to reflect reality... bah~
last thing that i've been doing is tadaa~ Gundams! decided to give all my gundams a upgrading and a photoshoot...gonna experiment all the settings with my camera... for now...it's just some snaps of my Crossbone Vanguard X-1...

rambling on...
caught a episode of extreme makeover: home edition... actualli...it's kinda heartwarming to see such shows... putting the advertisements, the product placements etc aside... seeing them helping ppl to realise their dreams and improve their living conditions is quite a heart warming thing... today's episode is abt this kid who had cancer writing in to ask them for a paint job in the hospital for kids.. and all she wanted was to make the stay in hospital better for other kids who have cancer... and due to this kind nature of her..the makeover team decide to grant her wish and give her home a whole new total makeover in secret too... ppl who are interested can watch it on sunday...think it's 3 to 4pm ba...
been a tough week for mani frens... hope that all their troubles are over...
and to those birthday stars..happy birthday...
Don't Give Up On Us
David Soul
Don't give up on us, baby
Don't make the wrong seem right
The future isn't just one night
It's written in the moonlight
Painted on the stars
We can't change ours
Don't give up on us, baby
We're still worth one more try
I know we put a last one by
Just for a rainy evening
When maybe stars are few
Don't give up on us, I know
We can still come through
I really lost my head last night
You've got a right to start believing
There's still a little love left, even so
Don't give up on us, baby
Lord knows we've come this far
Can't we stay the way we are?

Who sometimes plays a fool

男人难人难忍
不是我的错我们都听过
完美的时候要更多
找这时候说的太多
有时候的我
只想和你一样沉默
不想单单罗罗嗦嗦
水也灭不掉的火
也许大男人真的很男人
也许大男人没那么男人
少了点风度还是不承认
有时候错的并不知道错的
不想借口只是直接一天说
有时候女孩没那么小孩
心里的无奈也需要点关怀
遗憾的遗留变成勉强了
怎么能重新再来

double trouble...
frens do wat a frens must...support, trust and be there...
your world may collapse, but your frens' corpse will be around you...
even if they are not..have faith they will pack up your body...
families do wat families must... support, protect, and be there...
you may be troubled, but they'll take all your troubles and make it theirs...
even if they don't, hopefully they don't create more troubles...
guys do wat guys must... protect, be there, and stay there...
you may suspect them, but they'll hold fast and see it thru...
even if they don't, they'll die trying or it's simply not worth it...
gals do wat gals must... ask, request, and demand more...
you may love them, but they'll be the source of your troubles....
even if they aren't, you'll be troubled without them anyway....
Bridge Over Trouble Water
When you’re weary, feeling small,
When tears are in your eyes, I will dry them all;
I’m on your side. When times get rough
And friends just can’t be found,
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will lay me down.
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will lay me down.
When you’re down and out,
When you’re on the street,
When evening falls so hard
I will comfort you.
I’ll take your part.
When darkness comes
And pain is all around,
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will lay me down.
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will lay me down.
Sail on silvergirl,
Sail on by.
Your time has come to shine.
All your dreams are on their way.
See how they shine
If you need a friend
I’m sailing right behind.
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will ease your mind.
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will ease your mind.

just for thoughts....
又到了这个月份... 八月...是个让人惆怅的日子, 不止因为开学...
八月的天空, 总是看起来灰灰的, 阳光也似乎失去了朝气...
八月的天, 又让我想起你,
回到以前和过去... 回到了不想回忆的从前...
也因为在这个月里... 才放下一直戴着的面具....
人也常常后悔当初所做的决定... 也后悔当初应该做而没做的决定...
我喜欢冲澡... 喜欢热呼呼的水冲在我的身体...仿佛能洗去一切的困扰...刺痛得让皮肤感觉干净...
看着因蒸汽而弥漫的浴室, 如同在梦境里游走....
再看着朦胧的镜子...看不见自己的倒影... 让我能似乎忘了自己的存在...
在梦与现实里徘徊...

perhaps...we are living a lie...
been listening to old songs...mmm...and i feel old songs are the best...somehow their lyrics are closer to the the heart ba...and mabbe itz becoz that i'm a lyrics person ba... songs with meaning to mi is more important than songs that just sounds nice but has no meanings... or mabbe i'm just getting older....
left abt 3 more days in LA before flying back to singapore... mixed feelings...on one side, i miss my family and frens back in SG, can't wait to see them...and eat some chicken rice, laksa, etc etc... but on the otherhand... i like the laid back lifestyle here....things seems to be in less of a hurry, better scenery, and more time to escape the urbanization and over-crowded singapore... one thing for sure..i know i'll miss my 6 weeks stay here... but yeah..life goes on still... this will juz be another rite of passage that i'll pass thru before finally turning into a full fledge working adult zombie in the little island of singapore...rushing thru my life catching MRT, fighting off commando aunties for seats on the bus and train, fending off the throngs of teens that swarm town area during meal breaks...and defending myself from the blistering sun and unrelenting rain...
oh well..time to face the truth... and good luck for my examz on thurs...haizz...
疯了已经沉默了好久好久
已经静得我忘了如何要求
寂寞让人沾上了无法丢
你给的爱却始终无法保留
已经被冷落了好久好久
已经让我忘了曾经与你爱过
你给的寂寞让我无法丢
你的爱告诉我如何收留
疯了 想你想得疯了
忘了如何再让自己快乐
忘了从今以后要如何如何
疯了 想你想得疯了
想得我忘了如何再快乐
想得我忘了今后要如何如何
