Cry on my shoulder by Deutschland Sucht Den

2009-03-17T06:26:00.000-07:00

If the hero never comes to you
If you need someone you're feeling blue
If you wait for love and you're alone
If you call your friends nobody's home

You can run away but you can't hide
Through a storm and through a lonely night
Then I'll show you there's a destiny
The best things in life they are free

But if you wanna cry
Cry on my shoulder
If you need someone
Who cares for you
If you're feeling sad
Your heart gets colder
Yes I show you what real love can do

If your sky is grey oh, let me know
There's a place in heaven where we'll go
If heaven is a million years away
Oh, just call me and I'll make your day
When the nights are gettin' cold and blue
When the days are gettin' hard for you
I will always stay here by your side
I promise you I'll never hide

But if you wanna cry
Cry on my shoulder
If you need someone Who cares for you
If you're feeling sad
Your heart gets colder
Yes I show you what real love can do

But if you wanna cry
Cry on my shoulder
If you need someone
Who cares for you If you're feeling sad
Your heart gets colder
Yes I show you what real love can do

What real love can do
What real love can do
What love can do
What love can do
Love can do

Time to think for myself...i guess

2009-02-02T06:54:00.000-08:00

I start thinking and felt that how come at times I have to be so pleasing to others all the time. I am so afraid that people might get angry,people might this and that to the extreme that I think I am neglecting myself...maybe I should start reflecting. At all times, I am always ok and easy with everything then I feel that some people are taking advantage of me. When I am angry, I cant even vent it 'properly'. I hate the way I am behaving towards matter & people now..its juz simply not me.

Feel like strangers...

2009-01-24T18:00:00.000-08:00

haiz..today bump into a friend when I am having lunch with my sisters & mum, kinda of weird coz she was with her bf so i called out to her since we are sitting behind her, a short greeting but we are thus far apart thats how I feel at that very moment. My mum was asking "eh how come you called her but both of you seem abit distant", my mum was actually expecting her to come over since we are eating and they are still waiting for their food. Well coz people changed and they doesnt changed overnight, they changed becoz of somethg, someone, some some etc...

HaPpY LuNaR nEw YeAr!!!

2009-01-23T22:00:00.000-08:00

Dear all...happy lunar new year to you! I am so looking forwarding to CNY, reunion dinner,hong baos,new clothes,gathering with relatives..etc haiz this also means another year hv passed, well many changes this year. I remember I used to shop for new clothes and stuff with my close friends but things become different this year, I spent more time with my sisters and close colleagues cum frds..I also dunnoe why but it juz change along the way. I hv a close frd who used to give me new year goodies but surprisingly this year nothg for me,guess she hv other 'priorities', well I hv to accept the fact that between boyfrd and bestfrd there is a gap..*sad!

Though at times I might pretend I dun mind that I am being neglected but in fact I am pretty concerned about it...of coz cant be petty abt it all the time and make them thk that how cum you are so childish rite? Its how things moved if people start neglecting others and things around them then start to shift their priorities and when they are not balancing rite and wanted to go back again, it will be no doubt very difficult. * u might not understand what im toking here but nvm coz im typing for me to understand only, doesnt matter to me if u all dun understand ;)

I hope this year wll be a good year for me!ooh and for *you too! ;)

Celebrations and more!

2009-01-01T01:00:00.000-08:00

MERRY CHRISTMAS! heez..checked in with my dear female colleagues at Royal Plaza Scotts to celebrate christmas..it was fantastic andwe hav a pretty enjoyable session together!

Well as we grow older,it seem like we only get to meet up with friends more often during special festive seasons and I really dread that..and that also means I cherish the moments we are together very much =)

HAPPY NEW YEAR!And for new year, with my colleagues kakis we went to newton circus to enjoy a feast of local delicacies and of coz beer beer! i thk the best thg after a day of hard work is to pamper ourselves with 'drinks'..haa! This time round we choose somewhere cheaper lah instead of Happy bar we usually go..heez Happy = Harry, we went too often that we even got membership card lor!

And not to forget to mention..haa i check into another hotel again but this time is with my best buddies..we checked in Carlton which is located at Cityhall..we da bao alot of food to enjoy in the room as we do not wish to join the crowd..how nice with gd food,gd drinks and best buddies to share and celebrate! ooh and we also celebrated ah min's birthday together!

Cruise with my best buddies...

2008-12-20T05:40:00.000-08:00

Yippe not long after the Japan trip, I went cruising..heez,wow i thk i really spend alot of money over the months lor..but it was a wonderful trip..i get to nua and nua and nua, do nothg but juz eat and slack for two days..

And im back!

2008-12-06T18:05:00.000-08:00

Hey ppl, im back from Japan! It was a fruitful trip (of coz,im not referring to the thgs i bought but the meetings we hav..haa!) Indeed, I had enjoyed myself though it was a working trip but we hv alot of fun together. Initially, I thought going with the bosses will be erm..haa but it turned out absolutely fantastic!

24/11: On the first day we arrived at abt 11am but check in time is at 2pm so we hav ample of time. No meetings was scheduled as it was Japan's holiday (Thanksgiving & Labour day). We decided to hv a hearty lunch to somewhere which is Ueno. The place is crowded with people, they hav a long street selling all kind of stuff, we hv a walk thru the streets after lunch and head to Harajuku which is located in Shibuya. The place is full of young people updated with the latest trends. It was then raining heavily so we did not stayed there for long and return to Ikebukuro where our hotel is situated. We have a rest after check-in and prepared for dinner. I slept pretty well after a drink at the lobby lounge..guess im really tired.

25/11: The start of the meetings..woah we woke up really early!Tokyo is one hr ahead of s'pore...and for every meetings we hv to be there at least 15 mins early as Japanese are very particular abt punctality. We arranged to hv two meetings a day so that it is not too rush and not that tired also..

After the meetings, we hv dinner and as it was still early so we decide to walk around nearby dept stores..heez was really glad that the rain wasnt too heavy as we decide to go shinjuku..that place is the so called 'red light district'..haa! looking around..i realized besides the pimps, there also people holding broom waiting for 'business', here you will noticed that the ladies are not outside to compete for business but are the pimps. After all the walking, we decide to settle down for yakitori and sakae..heez

ikebukuro - shopping area

resturant - yakitori & sakae

me at Shinjuku

26/11: And its another day again packed with two meetings..in toyko,the trains are super duper packed with ppl especially early in the morning..there are staff allocated at each cabin door to push passengers in order for the train door to close! luckily im taking the train opposite..but it was really terrifying watching the people squeezing like 'bread & jam'. According to my colleague, she say even if a female is being molest,she wld not be able to shout out loud or complain coz the train is too crowded..

After the meetings,it was another tired day..we decide to go Akihabara where they sell the most advanced electric products, computer products and many comic related stuff etc i bought alot toy toy for colleagues & friends as sounveir..haa! ooh and my most satisfied item is the lip stick like thumb drive..super pretty lor! Then we went Ginza to look for Burberry which my colleague needed to buy to 'report' back to his wife..haa! All big and posh dept stores are located there selling all branded stuff..and then we head back to hotel..i was in a rush to buy a pair of shoes coz the boots are hurting me! thats explain the 'golden shoes' (refer pic below) =p

Finally, i get to eat sushi for dinner! wow the sushi is so delicious and cheap. Nothing is really cheap in Japan but the sushi is considered rather cheap as the item we ate in s'pore is usually the expensive range but theirs are at the average price.

27/11: Today is a long day coz there are alot of travelling..but frankly speaking i enjoyed today the most..being able to get close to natural surroundings made me feels good! On the way to the place, I manage to ate an ice-cream..WOW i wanted to shout out loud 'COOL!', eating cold ice-cream in cold weather! Their ice-cream is fantastic lor,nv ate such delicious ice-cream in my entire life leh...i know i am being too exagerating..kekez! Ooh forgot to mentioned this place is at Oyama =p

I really love this place alot..its fantastic! I think most likely is becoz I have never really been to such rural area and the surrounding surprised me.. =) Nothg much for the day coz it was already quite late after we went back.

28/11: We went back today after a meeting..nothg much as it was quite rush and there are no time for us to go anywhere so after a quick lunch we head to airport and do a last minute shopping there =)

I am hoping to go back to Japan within the next 3 years and of coz to visit Disneyland!

Im off to Japan

2008-11-23T10:00:00.000-08:00

Dear all...I am officially off to japan on 23/11 on a working trip for a week, sound disappointing huh coz im not on holiday though! but anyway it is really an eye-open for me to go somewhere which I nv plan or dream of gg at the age of 24..haa coz tot i hav to really save abit before gg somewhere far far..anyway im looking forward to the trip and hope that everythg will turn out juz fine...bless me =)

Ah Mic birthday!

2008-11-22T10:30:00.000-08:00

My Convocation

2008-11-18T18:20:00.000-08:00

Busy!

2008-11-10T07:13:00.000-08:00

Been really busy lately...celebrated Mic's birthday last saturday, hv fun at ice-cold beer and supper nearby, it was good been with my crappy colleagues..haa will put up the photos soon =)

Lucky ones...

2008-10-21T06:30:00.000-07:00

Recent program that I run made me realized that im really very lucky...so so so much lucky. At times, we always feel that we are being short changed by others whether is in relationship,work or family etc but take a step back and think, perhaps we are the ones who are demanding too much from others?

What i really wan...

2008-10-03T01:00:00.000-07:00

Something that I luv to do

Satisfaction is what I want to feel

Cash enough to endorse my desires

And I want to move towards that goal

Not the way it is...

2008-10-02T01:00:00.000-07:00

I thought I am happy and I am just pretending all along

i get angry easily

tense up easily under pressure

i am too concern on how ppl view me

i simply cant get to sleep

hv thousand and one thgs gg thru my mind

i nd a break and a long break

Pour of rain at Bar Stop

2008-09-30T01:00:00.000-07:00

yea went to bar stop located at Devonshire road..pretty nice and cosy place, you can choose to sit indoor or outdoor. When i met up with my frds there, the place was already packed with ppl, well guess its the eve of holiday so that explained and there were two groups of ppl near our table toking loudly in mixed english and hokkien and happily cheering their glasses of beer and wine. All of the sudden, the classy plc becomes like 'high class kopitiam' and we hv to shout thru the noise to tok to each other. We shld hv left early but becoz of the heavy rain so we hang ard for awhile.

But i muz say, this place is definitely somewhere that u might want to plan and visit, drinks are reasonably priced and is juz 5mins walk from somerset mrt station. As it is nestled along Devonshire road, i wld think it is a perfect getaway from the tumult of city. The decor is simple and yet classy and service is great, definitely a great place to chill out with ur friends =) if not for the noisy crowd last night, it wld hv been a perfect chill out plc for me.

ktv with my sisters...

2008-09-28T01:00:00.000-07:00

Well its great to hv sisters coz we all hv common interests..wakaka! we went Top One at Bugis and i think its not bad coz it is spacious and the room is nicely done-up, somemore got 'special effects'..btw in the first picture, we are placed from the eldest to the youngest. We hv a younger sister at home =) yea u might be wondering, yes we are 4 sisters!

Meet up with ah yan...

2008-09-20T01:00:00.000-07:00

yea been meeting yan pretty often..we are in actual fact keeping each other company..haa!wat to do lah..'u all' busy with other stuff, i wun wan to be rejected when asking anyone of you out...thks yan for accompany me as i am really feeling down lately =)

Friendship at times are so vulnerable, we thought we are very good because we know each other very long but it became a case whereby we meet up for a 'motive' not because we miss each other and we enjoy each other company. Because we dun meet up so often anymore, thgs that i wanted to tell you all so much become redundant...

Dallas, I say

2008-09-18T01:00:00.000-07:00

Went Dallas to try out the place, not bad overall..the setting is abit similiar to fine dining style.

Drinks to perk us up!

Gracie & me!

Sze & Yi!

This chicken wings do not taste nice lo..sour! urgh..

Guess hving fish & chips is the safest...

Farewell for Linghui...

2008-09-15T01:14:00.000-07:00

Farewell for dearie linghui..she's a sweetie! Our most beloved temp girl ♥~

After that, we went ktv to relax relax..haa! yea its been a long time since we get together...misses those days

The Art Of Coordination

2008-09-12T20:08:00.000-07:00

haiz..wat can i say when you are the one doing all the coordination of arranging for meeting with friends for a gathering or getting pressizes, its always so hard...when you are still in school, you see each other almost everyday so everyone can confirm with ya on the spot whether they can make it or not but when everyone started working, confirming and arranging for a meet-up become a challenge coz many will take days or even forget to reply your sms. yea..you hav to start to send multiple smses before anyone reply ya. Becoz i understand the agony of gg thru all this coordination and pending of long awaited replies, i always try my best to reply as soon as i got my sms or even if i cant giv the answer on the spot, i will juz reply 'will get back to ya when i hv...' spare a thought for others if u happen to read this blog entry.. =)

Long Gone the way that we used to be

2008-09-07T22:00:00.000-07:00

Hi All..How hv you ppl spent your time over the weekends huh? Well as for me..its the usual stuff..hanging out with frds,catching movies,eat out and chill...i guess as we are growing up and going through different stages in life if there are no maintenance in friendship,it does depreciate.

I start to get abit grouchy when i realized all my surrounding friends are proceeding to another phase in life and I am juz stuck at where I am and not moving,well of coz I do get abit disappointed with myself but fate is not on its way to me,tats what I cant control abt it..yea and I do sincrerely really really really happy for them but that's also means we will start distancing from each other coz priorities in their life change. I guess thats all part of life and I am not blaming anyone that its the way things are moving unless you cherish else it will juz gone with the wind but of coz many ppl dun realize it until it is lost to time..

As for me..since thats the way it is, I will juz focus on what it is important to me now =)
