Secretly I wished

Secretly I wished I had better brains to process more information. I feel like a 486 living in the world of the Pentium Duo Core…

Secretly I wished I would have 4 kids after marriage. Errmm.. Maybe 3 is a less scary figure. But lets see if the first one tramatises me! haha!

Secretly I wished I could be a full time mother to see my children grow. And not leave them to the maid. Although I never had the intention of ever hiring a maid.

Secretly I wished my temper is less furious than it is now. Its scary when I realised I am not as gentle as I remembered myself to be. But hey, thats part of growing up? haha!

Secretly I wished my boss would increase my pathetic salary soon. And not deduct it. Its funny how companies usually deduct pay  just becuase the economy is not good…  even when they are doing well..

Secretly I wished I would have the courage and wisdom to be the kind of mother I want to be and not the kind of mother that I’ve learnt to become. Man is sometimes blessed because of his experiences, but they are also often impaired by them..

Anyway, all this wishes I have secretly are no longer secrets, are they? lol! And most importantly, secretly I wished I had none of these wishes and just get back to reality! haha!

Time to sleep everybody!

Here’s my song of the moment for you guys to enjoy – Don’t Look Back in Anger – Oasis

p/s: i am generally in quite a happy mood tonight. just in case i sounded not too happy throughout my post. lolol!!

For the remaining 51 weeks of 2009

Heard this song on radio today and it brought about a renewed inspiration in me to keep my chin up and forge ahead for 2009.

This was one of my favourites. Found this song uplifting and inspiring. Really apt for the new year, new day – whatever that marks a new beginning. I guess while we can’t turn back time, we always have a chance to make things better and a choice to make good use of it.

Dedicated to all my pals out there. Happy 2009! Hope the first 7 days has been great thus far!

Natasha Bedingfield – Unwritten

I am unwritten, can’t read my mind, I’m undefined
I’m just beginning, the pen’s in my hand, ending unplanned

Staring at the blank page before you
Open up the dirty window
Let the sun illuminate the words that you could not find

Reaching for something in the distance
So close you can almost taste it
Release your inhibitions
Feel the rain on your skin
No one else can feel it for you
Only you can let it in
No one else, no one else
Can speak the words on your lips
Drench yourself in words unspoken
Live your life with arms wide open
Today is where your book begins
The rest is still unwritten

I break tradition, sometimes my tries, are outside the lines
We’ve been conditioned to not make mistakes, but I can’t live that way

Staring at the blank page before you
Open up the dirty window
Let the sun illuminate the words that you could not find

Reaching for something in the distance
So close you can almost taste it
Release your inhibitions
Feel the rain on your skin
No one else can feel it for you
Only you can let it in
No one else, no one else
Can speak the words on your lips
Drench yourself in words unspoken
Live your life with arms wide open
Today is where your book begins

Cannonball

Cannonball – by Damien Rice.

A really nice song which i will never get tired of.

The lyrics are simple enough, yet the meaning seems pretty deep.

stones taught me to fly
love, it taught me to lie
life, it taught me to die
so it’s not hard to fall
when you float like a cannonball

Oh what irony!

Enjoy!

Can’t Get Out of My Head

Here are some songs from the drama – 命中注定我愛你.

Love this show immensely. Its a very funny show, with some tear-jerking parts.

Had not been watching it for sometime already… but the song just keep ringing in my head. The songtrack has ‘happier’ and ‘chirpier’ songs, but I think I love this two sad ones most.

Come think about it, its kinda funny how sad songs tend to leave a more lasting impressions. Somehow, its only through this depressing stuff that we learn to appreciate laughter and love. Somehow, sad songs has such emotions tat Its almost like the heaviness of such emotions weigh you down to earth and brings you back into reality. LOL! Remember what Goo Goo Dolls said? Yeah, “and you bleed just to know you’re alive”.

Enjoy.

p/s: The songs are chinese la. But the second one has ‘english translations’! LOL!
