just me myself and i: September 2005

Busy bee me

Busy busy busy!
Yup, busy packing for my sabah trip, travelling early tmr morning.

Though we're flying domestic still gotta be at the airport 2hrs ahead for grp check-in. There goes my precious sleep.

No, this is not a totally fun trip. It's our year-end company meeting full of presentations, detailing (where we have to memorise a bunch of notes and verbalise them - 5 different ones mine u!), tests, roleplays and more presentations, detailing, tests and roleplays! :(

The only day where we get to fully indulge in our holiday will be on the day before travelling back.

So here it is, my home for the next one week: http://www.nexusresort.com/index_nr.html

Flightplan

Just back from watching Flightplan.
It's been awhile since i last catch Jodie Foster on the big screen, the last was Panic Room if i'm not mistaken.
And it has also been awhile since i last catch a movie in the cinema. I think the last was Bewitched (missed quite a few good ones like The Island).. *sigh*
Anyway, don't want to elaborate much on the movie... just that this thriller will keep u guessing right from the start.

RockStar INXS

JD Fortune's the new lead for INXS.
The guy's got character and attitude. Was initially rooting for Marty (he gave new life to Britney's hit me baby one more time), but after watching JD's performance, can't deny that he is good and definitely fit to front the band.
Wasn't truly an INXS fan but after all this, i can only say that i'm looking forward for the new album.
What a good marketing gimmick to gain new fans!

*actually ter-heard the results first on mixfm (2nd time). dunno why the dj must announce the result of a reality show when most have not watched yet. first time also was on mixfm - the dj announced carrie underwood as the new american idol that morning (must be after the live telecast). what wet blankets these ppl can be.

Other Side of The World

KT Tunstall's Other Side of The World
a rising new artist to take note of :)

Over the sea and far away
She's waiting like an iceberg
Waiting to change
But she's cold inside
She wants to be like the water

All the muscles tighten in her face
Buries her soul in one embrace
They're one and the same
Just like water

The fire fades away
Most of every day
Is full of tired excuses
But it's too hard to say
I wish it were simple
But we give up easily
You're close enough to see that
You're the otherside of the world to me

On comes the panic light
Holding on with fingers and feelings alike
But the time has come
To move along

The fire fades away
Most of every day
Is full of tired excuses
But it's too hard to say
I wish it were simple
But we give up easily
You're close enough to see that
You're the otherside of the world

Can you help me?
Can you let me go?
And can you still love me
When you can't see me anymore?

The fire fades away
Most of every day
Is full of tired excuses
But it's too hard to say
I wish it were simple
But we give up easily
You're close enough to see that
You're the otherside of the world
The otherside of the world
You're the otherside of the world to me...

Those creatures from Mars

What is it with men?
Was watching an episode on Desperate Housewifes earlier, the one where Susan's exhubby wanted to get back together with her.
Let's get real.
First the guy left his wife for his secretary. Then secretary had an affair with another guy. And now when he's all alone, he's finally seen the light and wants to get back together?!
Does he expect to be welcomed back with open arms? *eyes rolling* puhleezz!
Good for Susan - finally she knows what she wants. You go girl!
*not having a tiff with my darling, comments are purely based on events that took place on wisteria lane.. well, slight influence from the 'bradpitt leaving jenniferaniston for angelinajolie' episode.. we'll just gotta wait and see who gets the last laugh...

Pepper girl!

Simply Pepper-rific!

Small yet loud,

Manja yet naughty,

Mischievous yet adorable,

Playful yet temperamental,

That's our Pepper... !!

How ironic?

It's funny how death can bring people together.
Grandma just passed away. And close relatives that i have not seen for awhile were there to mourn with us. It was like a reunion of sort.
Do we need tragic events to come together?
Then there's the question of sincerity. Some showed little effort when it is needed most, and now when there's nothing... no amount of tears can buy back whatever lost time.
Let's appreciate life and all that is around us. Here's to life... Cheers!

You're Beautiful

A beautiful song by james blunt. The words have no personal meaning to me but the tune is simply beautiful.

My life is brilliant*Musical Pause*
My life is brilliant. My love is pure. I saw an angel. Of that I'm sure. She smiled at me on the subway. She was with another man. But I won't lose no sleep on that, 'Cause I've got a plan.

(chorus)You're beautiful. You're beautiful. You're beautiful, it's true. I saw your face in a crowded place, And I don't know what to do, 'Cause Ill never be with you.

Yeah, she caught my eye, As I walked on by. She could see from my face that I was, fucking high, And I don't think that I'll see her again, But we shared a moment that will last till the end.

(chorus)You're beautiful. You're beautiful. You're beautiful, it's true. I saw your face in a crowded place, And I don't know what to do, You're beautiful, You're beautiful. But it's time to face the truthI will never be with you.
(La-la-la-la, La-la-la-la, La-la-la-la, Laaah)

There must be an angel, with a smile on her face, when she thought that I should be with you

You're beautiful. You're beautiful. You're beautiful, it's true. There must be an angel with a smile on her face, When she thought up that I should be with you. But it's time to face the truth, I will never be with you.

Life's but a bed of roses

Life's like a bed of roses... or not?!
Some people say life's a bed of roses (or was it 'like a box of choc'?), only they failed to warn us about the thorns. When things are pinky and rosy, a prick(kle) or two will sure to appear. It's like the time when u got into fits of laughter, only to cry later.
No, i'm not in the thorn period now. It's just that i need to scribble something.. anything, to start off the blog, so i'm taking this chance to rant on about nothing specific, but just on life and a bed of roses.
So what is it with life and roses anyway? There's one urging us to stop and smell the roses. But don't stop too long, you might get all distracted. Or worse, in the headiness of the sweet scent of roses, you might actually fall on the bed of roses with thorns pricking your bottom!
I better quit prattling like an idiot now. But if u care to ponder on my words, you might actually make some sense from all these nonsense!
