From Now On

Chang & Eng - From Now On

Here we are, in America,
It's just you and me, and me and you together.
Here we are, in the Promised Land,
You know we can get very far.
All those dreams of faraway places,
There is so much more we can explore,
Cause here we are, in America,
And this is where our dreams will all come true.

From now on,
It will be different,
It will be special,
Our dreams will come true.
From now on,
Life will be better,
We'll taste all the pleasure,
And travel the world,
We'll be rich, we'll be famous
There'll be girls at our call,
There'll be love all around us and we can have it all
From now on.

From now on,
It will be difficult,
It will be frightening,
I can't face the world...
From now on,
The seasons are changing,
We need rearranging,
It won't be the same..

Where there's sunshine,
There's rain,
When it's pleasure
It's pain,
Don't you see we're the one they've been waiting for?
From now on(x3)
Will we get used to this fortune and fame?

From now on
It will be different, it'll open our eyes.
From now on,
It will be magic, or it could be tragic
We can't change the world.
Might be mountains to climb,
Or rainbows to paint,
And the stars will all shine on the great Chang and Eng,
From now on(x5)

Wednesday

`hello :))

today's wednesday right? not tuesday? I can be abit blur sometimes.. haha. =D Been thinking abt stuff lately.. stuff much to private to write here.. so I've been writing in my journal ALOT. I think advertising my blog on friendster is abit DANGEROUS. haha. scaryy. so like yesterday, I took the bus back with Suzy and Lynne. Suzy was like messaging either JN or JS.. and he asked her whether she was free on the 16th. Then Liney and I thought, "Ooooh. He likes her" haha. but Suzy kept denying it.. haha. I have been owing suzy a letter since forever. haha too bad. :)) I can't believe Joanne didn't book me for blogging. gosh.. I thought I would get in trouble for this. Well, I guess it's better not to get a booking.

`ugh..

I can't believe I'm still slacking.. It's like, a week from exams and I still haven't started intensive studying yet. I think I shall be hardworking today :)) You know what really frustrates me, I can't study when there's people around. The whole house must be super quiet then I can study in peace, and since I'm the type where it's hard to find me actually studying, once you break my concentration, I'll never get back to studying again. I did my history notes last night. Well, I'm not actually done yet but ALMOST.. almost.. I think and hour or two more and I'll have finished my notes for history. I hate source-based questions. I always seem to fail the SBQ in all the tests and exams. For eg, mid-years I had 5/20 for SBQ. So great right? yeahh.

`lalalala.

I don't know why, but I'm happy writing this.. :)) I sure hope my composition has improved..I can't bear it if my composition sucked again for Finals. Finals Rock. It signifies the end of the year. After finals, FREEDOM AT LAST. I wonder how I'd feel after 'O's. aah wells. Been sleeping late every night since last week. guess what I was doing.. Writing in my journal! Since my mum rarely lets me near the computer anymore, I don't really have the time to blog... So the only alternative is to write in my journal right? Especially since I have had alot on my mind these days.. I sacrificed my whole recess to write this and now recess is almost over.. I'd better get back to class.

~Message~

To all you people out there reading this.. Good Luck for finals kae.. esp those doing PSLE and 'O's this year.. Study hard and don't slack like me. Trust me. Slacking doesn't really pay off. All it gets me is a zero in ting xie.

P.S. I'm so glad I lived through chinese today.. I did most of my homework last night. so guai right :P My chinese sucks like shitt man. :D

Saturday

Wednesday

`heyyy!

I'm suuuper high today. maybe it's because I'm listening to a super nice song. I have a new favourite song now. It's the I won't say(i'm in love) by Susan Egan(I think). It's the one we have to analyse for music. It's so super super SUPER NICE!!! okaaaay. haha.

Who does she think she is huh??Bloody idiot.not rly in the mood for blogging now but I guess I will try to blog for a while more.yepps. after art was CME. Ms Lee was so cute. haha. tidledeedummm. Recess was kinda boring.. rahh didn't want to follow me to the library.. by the time she finished eating recess was about over. haha. So I didn't go in the end. After recess was an uneventful geog lesson.. I was writing letters the whole time.. So boring!! Although I like geog, It's the studying I like, not the learning. haha.Then it was chinerse lesson after that. When was chinese lesson EVER interesting? but she sent Del, Mel and Claire out for disturbing her class. she said they couldn't come in tmr too. When she asked them to get out, she was like(translated)"you three go out of the class now." then I was like -gasp- "me?" then lao shi was like," no, mel,del, & claire." I really feel sorry for them. THEN... it was errr. SCIENCE. yuck. we did some stuff then I went for golf after sch..Taxi driver was friendly.. though I didn't feel like talking.. haha. golf was quite ok.. dad sent me home.. then ran off somewhere again. yupps. then after that.. my mum went out..

`hello.

let me put up the continuation from yesterday's post.

`turning back time...

heys. just got back my english oral exam marks. got 12 upon 20. lowest in class. so cool!! haha..first time i got lowest in class.. this is so coooooool. NOT!! haha. who the hell would be happy when they get the lowest in class. I got the lowest in class for chinese oral too. therefore I can conclude that my oral sucks. there. inference. from that I can infer that I will at least pass history. hahhaaa. Went to buy disney MAGIC CD after school. thought the disney songs were really really COOL. haha. Then when I came back, my mum asked me how I did for english oral and I was like -gasp- "errr. I did OK." what was I supposed to say?? I couldn't just tell her i got the lowest in class. She'd start hammering me probably.[end adventure]

`back to new age.

hello. back from our adventure. and not a very nice one at that. I couldn't use tht finise com yesterday. So I couldn't blog obviously. yupps. but I'm here now!! I want T-----'s email! hahaha.

Actually my main point of coming here was to get the lyrics of the mai phen rai song but then.. no use right I cannot sing.. I have a sore throat. haha. If I sing someone will probably start looking for a duck. If you don't get me then never mind. haha.

Music - Mai Phen Rai
Mood - Thoughtful

`the present.

Today, I went to watch cinderella story again after school. I couldn't resist the urge to watch it again. AND I'm still not bored of it. I mean, It's a great show, and I'm SO going to by the DVD. I just realised that a Cinderella Story is an exceptionally inspirational movie, and the producers rock.

`my thoughts.

Watching the show invoked some thought into my head. On my way home, I was reflecting on the meaning of one little word - life.

L.I.F.E - Just four letters, and yet can mean so much.

Don't let the fear of striking out keep you from playing the game.

Quoted from the cinderella story, this string of words, as one may call it, is very inspiring. It forces you to realise that, "hey, nothing's going to stop me from achieving my dreams." If you put in the necessary effort and go all out to achieve my dreams, who knows, one day it may very well come true.

Having a positive attitude towards things is also very important. Each morning I wake up and say to myself, I have two choices today. I can choose to be in a good mood or I can choose to be in a bad mood. I always choose to be in a good mood. Each time something bad happens, I can choose to be a victim or I can choose to learn from it. I always choose to learn from it. Life is all about choices. When you cut away all the junk, every situation is a choice. You choose how you react to situations. You choose how people will affect your mood. You choose to be in a good mood or a bad mood. It's your choice how you live your life. I learned from this that every day you have the choice to either enjoy life or to hate it. The only thing that is truly yours that no one can control or take from you is your attitude, so that if you take care of that, everything else in life becomes much easier.

I think friendship is feinitely essential if you want to get through your setbacks. Without my friends, I would be nothing. I'd rather have one best friend than 10 good friends. Friends give you the moral support you need to get through life, and they will catch you if you fall. If they ever jumped off a bridge or cliff, I'd definitely be at the bottom to catch them. After all, that' s what friends are for right?

In my opinion, ultimately, love is the most important thing of all. I'm sure you've heard of the saying that love makes the world go round. We live in a world filled with love. We have a family to love and will be loved in return; we have friends to care for and will be cared for in return. What could be better than living a happy life filled with love, with your friends, family, and loved ones supporting you all the way?

nothing.

Remember, a life full of regrets is an unhappy one. And in this world, who wants to be unhappy, when they have a whole life out there for them to live, to cherish?

no one.

If you woke up this morning with more health than illness,you are more blessed than the million who won't survive the week.If you have never experienced the danger of battle, the loneliness of imprisonment,the agony of torture or the pangs of starvation, you are ahead of
20 million people around the world.If you attend a church meeting without fear
of harassment, arrest, torture or death,you are more blessed than almost 3
billion people in the world.If you have food in your refrigerator, clothes on
your back, a roof over your head and a place to sleep,you are richer than 75% of
this world.If you have money in the bank, in your wallet, and spare changein a
dish someplace, you are among the top 8% of the world's wealthy.If you can read
this message, you are more blessed than overtwo billion people in the world who
cannot read anything at all.

After reading this, be grateful to what you have. for you are one of the luckiest and most blessed people in this world.

Heyys.=D Just came back from a screwy golf lesson. It was more like a test than a lesson though. There I was, an unsuspecting victim, and they go popping suprise golf tests on me. As usual, I failed miserably, as I do with any test not concerning my studies. aah wells. What can I do... I'm crap at almost everything. have been slacking this year.

Tuesday

`yippeeee

haha. kae I'm abit high today :)) Today went out to celebrate Vanessa's birthday and had a whale of a time. Okaaay. Don't usually use that phrase but I'm watching Bachelorette as I'm typing this so I'm not really taking my time to think abt nice sweet phrases to write here. I can't believe myself.. haha.

`So.

Today I woke up at 9.15 (could have slept on but whadda hell!) Anw, I woke up because I thought I had tuition at 10am and I needed to get ready before tuition because if I didn't, I would be late. In the end, my STUPID tuition teacher cancelled the tuition after I got ready. What crap la. Anw, I met Vanessa,Jo,Yunnie,Amanda Lee and Chris. Poor Tiff couldn't come!! Awwww. haha. then then then.. We watched the Cinderella Story. OMG CHAD MICHAEL MURRAY IS SOOOOOOOOOOOO CUTE!!! haha kaeee. It was a super super super nice show kae.. you peeps must go watch.yep yep he's on the cover of lime :P haha--

`Then...

After the movie we went to Far East. Walked ard Livia for a while then decided to go take neos downstairs. yupps. I didn't take la. Didn't feel like wasting money lor. Anw, we walked to heeren after that. Then we walked back to Wisma then trooped ard abit. Ate at Coffee Club Express.. blah blah. went hm...

`Suprise

Oh ya! While we were out we saw Mr Jeow with his wife and Ms Soh walked past us with this guy. It was kinda scary okaaay. Seeing two teachers in one day.

`lala landee

See I took so long to write this that it's halfway through the TV show Who wants to marry my dad. The Chris guy is cute too :P Okaay. better go.

Monday

`yupps.

I didn't have tuition yesterday as I said I would. Had to go to church. Pure joy for me yesterday. yippee! After church, we went to Heartland Mall. Went shopping because my sister needed to buy school shoes. I went there to buy Vanessa's birthday present. Hope she likes it!! heh.I went to Giordano to see if I could buy any of the "me" T-shirts. I thought that they were quite cool. Unfortunately, my mum didn't allow me. Thought that I didn't need so many when I said I wanted to buy 2. Wanted me to buy the tee cheaper. What a cheap-skate. ^Sigh--

`lalala

Sometimes I think life is going how I want it to go.
But sometimes I'm not so sure.

`kae

I'm watching this show on TV now. Quite a weird show I must admit. It's abt the top 10 world's best restaurant bathrooms. Really. The extent people would go through to make nice bathrooms. You know, I think the bathrooms are really cool. Some people really have good imagination.(unlike me.)

`Screw chinese oral.

Mai Phen Rai

Mai Phen Rai - Chang & Eng

All this time, now our lives have been difficult,
Lord did you intend it this way,
My little sons they did not ask to be born this way,
But if it’s what you wish you wish me,
Please give me strength,
I’ll hope and pray,
I’ll love them more each and everyday..

Please don’t cry, don’t be sad,
Leave your tears behind,
Take your fears and throw them all away,
I can see, what you hide from me,
When you feel that no one’s ever on your side.

Mai Phen Rai, means never mind my dear,
When you feel alone and lost and cold inside,
Mai Phen Rai, remember this my dear,
That my love will always be here by your side.

They might say you’re different,
They might say you’re strange,
But in my eyes I can see that you are special,
People are all different, they’re fat or thin or tall,
It’s what you have inside that matters most of all.

Mai Phen Rai, means never mind my dear,
You must look beyond search for one’s better side,
Mai Phen Rai, will make it easier,
Just remember you are special in my eyes.

Mai Phen Rai, means never mind my dear,
When you feel alone and lost and cold inside,
Mai Phen Rai, remember this my dear,
That my love will always be here by your side.

It was quite deep cut. Didn't really hurt though.

Spell for Eternal Youth

All the years are rushing by,
and each new wrinkle makes me cry.
So I call upon the powers of youth,
to help me beat the ghastly truth,
to keep me young and ever so sprightly,
raving and grooving daily and nightly.

`haha.
