Far Away - Nickelback (taken from http://www.elyrics.net)

This time, This place
Misused, Mistakes
Too long, Too late
Who was I to make you wait
Just one chance
Just one breath
Just in case there's just one left
'Cause you know,
you know, you know

That I love you
I have loved you all along
And I miss you
Been far away for far too long
I keep dreaming you'll be with me
and you'll never go
Stop breathing if
I don't see you anymore

On my knees, I'll ask
Last chance for one last dance
'Cause with you, I'd withstand
All of hell to hold your hand
I'd give it all
I'd give for us
Give anything but I won't give up
'Cause you know,
you know, you know

So far away
Been far away for far too long
So far away
Been far away for far too long
But you know, you know, you know

I wanted
I wanted you to stay
'Cause I needed
I need to hear you say
That I love you
I have loved you all along
And I forgive you
For being away for far too long
So keep breathing
'Cause I'm not leaving you anymore
Believe it
Hold on to me and, never let me go
Keep breathing
'Cause I'm not leaving you anymore
Believe it
Hold on to me and, never let me go
Keep breathing
Hold on to me and, never let me go
Keep breathing
Hold on to me and, never let me go

Leave out all the rest - Linkin Park (taken from http://www.azlyrics.com)

I dreamed I was missing
You were so scared
But no one would listen
Cause no one else cared

After my dreaming
I woke with this fear
What am I leaving
When I'm done here
So if you're asking me
I want you to know

When my time comes
Forget the wrong that I've done
Help me leave behind some
Reasons to be missed
And don't resent me
And when you're feeling empty
Keep me in your memory
Leave out all the rest
Leave out all the rest


Don't be afraid
I've taken my beating
I've shared what I made

I'm strong on the surface
Not all the way through
I've never been perfect
But neither have you
So if you're asking me
I want you to know

When my time comes
Forget the wrong that I've done
Help me leave behind some
Reasons to be missed
Don't resent me
And when you're feeling empty
Keep me in your memory
Leave out all the rest
Leave out all the rest

Forgetting
All the hurt inside
You've learned to hide so well
Pretending
Someone else can come and save me from myself
I can't be who you are

When my time comes
Forget the wrong that I've done
Help me leave behind some
Reasons to be missed
Don't resent me
And when you're feeling empty
Keep me in your memory
Leave out all the rest
Leave out all the rest

Forgetting
All the hurt inside
You've learned to hide so well
Pretending
Someone else can come and save me from myself
I can't be who you are
I can't be who you are

会呼吸的痛 - 梁静茹 (taken from http://www.baidu.com)

在东京铁塔第一次眺望
看灯火模仿坠落的星光
我终於到达但却更悲伤
一个人完成我们的梦想

你总说时间还很多
你可以等我
以前我不懂得
未必明天就有以后

想念是会呼吸的痛
它活在我身上所有角落
哼你爱的歌会痛
看你的信会痛连沉默也痛

遗憾是会呼吸的痛
它流在血液中来回滚动
后悔不贴心会痛
恨不懂你会痛
想见不能见最痛

没看你脸上张扬过哀伤
那是种多么寂寞的倔强
你拆了城墙让我去流浪
在原地等我把自己捆绑

你没说你也会软弱
需要依赖我
我就装不晓得
自由移动自我地过

想念是会呼吸的痛
它活在我身上所有角落
哼你爱的歌会痛
看你的信会痛连沉默也痛

遗憾是会呼吸的痛
它流在血液中来回滚动
后悔不贴心会痛
恨不懂你会痛
想见不能见最痛

我发誓不再说谎了
多爱你就会抱你多紧的
我的微笑都假了
灵魂像飘浮着你在就好了

我发誓不让你等候
陪你做想做的无论什么
我越来越像贝壳
怕心被人触碰你回来那就好了

能重来那就好了

眼泪笑了 - 刘力扬

比想象中更痛你真的没回头
我命令眼泪不许失控
回忆不跟你走都挤在我心中
我就有责任让它值得被珍重

谢谢你曾让我难过
谢谢我没有想太多
当爱情左盼右顾的时候

我眼泪都笑了谁还想哭呢
再勇敢的站着找回光和热
面对你的时候我不会舍不得
因为你已是过客因为路有些曲折
是美的

你眼泪都笑了谁还会哭呢
来不及完美的就唱首骊歌
想起你的时候我不是卑微的
反而我没有遗憾因为我已爱过你
深深的
心碎成了沙漠就快开凿绿洲
我没有时间不知所措
你温柔的双手本就不属于我
又何必在乎它以后属于谁呢

today marks the end of the olympics.

there were many events that made this particular olympic seem unforgettable. with the many world records set(especially when michael phelps won his eighth gold medal to become the greatest olympian of all time) and the stunning opening ceremony(the fireworks, the gymnasts and the cool lighting effects) and closing ceremony(same as the opening just with the addition of more stars present).

but the one thing that struck me really hard had nothing to do with the sports or the effects.

the one thing that struck me really hard was this.

i know that china has put in a lot of effort into the olympics to make it as close to perfection as possible, so much so that it has become the most expensive olympic games ever. i appreciate the effort and enjoyed the many ceremonies(opening, closing, victory) as well as the games and the facilities. but to disallow a girl from claiming the credit for singing a song for the olympics and instead, grant another girl the authority to lip synch to the other girl's voice on international tv where billions of people are watching is really pushing it in my opinion.

the reason given was that the girl that they chose to lip synch the song was better looking. So if i were to infer, this means that they made the other girl lip synch to make the performance more visually appealing. closer to perfection and all that right?

well how about this. when the performance was going on, in another part of China, a 7 year old girl was suffering quietly as she watched a nine year old girl present the song that she herself sang to the world - in what appeared to be - as her own. and at the same time, as the 7 year old girl watched her self esteem go down the drain(pardon the lack of subtlety) the nine year old girl knew that her own reputation would get smashed to smithereens, and she would be known, for a very long time, as the-girl-who-lip-synched-to-another-girl's-voice-at-the-olympics.

this, some may say, will not affect the viewers as they are only responsible for watching the performance. sorry, but i don't agree.

viewers don't just watch a show and take it as it is. we think about it, recall the events and sometimes for certain shows, analyse the happenings. with such a huge turn of events, it's hardly likely that we find the decision to swap the girls palatable.

sure, everyone was informed of the fact that the original singer of the song wasn't the girl at the ceremony. big deal. all the viewers are also of the knowledge that unfair treatment was meted out to a girl just because others didn't think she was visually appealing enough to appear at the ceremony to present the song she sang. would we be comfortable with that?

she was but a 7 year old girl. was it necessary to hit her right in the face with such brutal societal views and destroy what little self confidence and esteem she has at that age? children at that age are most impressionable and at their most fragile. it is likely that she will live in the shadow of this incident in the years to come. who then, will be responsible for the repercussions and the consequences of this act of seeking perfection?

perfection is not achieved if the method through which it was attained was imperfect. so, who was talking about seeking perfection again?

today was funny. the class kept taking pics and random shots of each other. totally camwhoring. and they happily decided during break that they wanted photos of all the scandal couples. and so the 3 scandal couples in my class were forced to take pics. don't ask me how i got involved in it because i m still trying to figure why they made me take pic with who i took the pic with and if there really is a scandal where did it come from.

but besides that really weird and awkward time, it was pretty much a fun day. a good end to school i guess. =)

saturday -
alvina's birthday. initially planned to get her present with yanting and then pass it to her on monday but a sudden change of plans took place and we ended up on her doorstep on the very same day delivering the present to her. the expression on her face was priceless. lol. it was worth all the getting lost and stuff like that. heh.

today -
michael phelps now holds the record for the most no. of golds in a single olympic. and singapore has a silver medal in table tennis team event (and now im 50 cents poorer). and most importantly, i slacked almost the whole of today away without knowing how i did it. i now have an AQ to finish and EM and EMI to finish revising before bedtime. which will be arnd 12. screwed. haha.

mood has been pretty bad lately whenever i go home cuz of certain stuff.

i hate being forced to do what i don't want to do.
i hate it when people don't bother to listen to me because they assume that i "jump to conclusions" and "think negatively" when actually they are the real pessimists.
i hate it when i want to do something that is actually the best for the situation and i m stopped from doing it because others just can't see that i m just trying to make the best out of things.


sometimes, i really think that proximity is not always best for some people. There are certain people that need to have distance between them for them to remain on good terms with each other. Or else clashes will result.

sorry abt the emo post but i really can't hold it in anymore.

funny things that happened today:
(1)
(in the audi before chem lecture...)
jd: hey i brought our pri sch class photo.
me: don't show anybody!
wq: i wanna see!
jd: i show your class people (proceeds to take out the photo)

luckily he didnt show my class ppl or else i think i wld have died of embarrassment cuz tt particular photo is probably one of the worst photos i've taken in my life.

(2)
(during a quiet time during chem lecture...)
guys were talking and something A said made B pissed.
B: you go eat my balls!
A: you dare to pluck out i dare to eat.

yes i know it's crude but the fact is that the whole class burst out laughing cuz they were so loud everyone could hear.

__
