Come away with me in the night
Come away with me
And I will write you a song
Come away with me on a bus
Come away with me where they can't tempt us
With their lies
I want to walk with you, on a cloudy day
In fields where the yellow grass grows knee kigh
So won't you try to come
Come away with me and we'll kiss
On a mountain top
Come away with me
And I'll never stop loving you
And I want to wake up with the rain falling on a tin roof
While I'm safe there in your arms
So all I ask is for you to come away with me in the night
Come away with me
Norah Jones.

I'm sick of being the runner up. Sick of being the one who's the fall back. Sick of being the last resort. Just sick of it. All of it. For once, just for once, i wanna be someones everything, their no.1, the one they think of immediately when they're happy or sad. I dont wanna hafta tie for fisrt place, or be "one of someones best". Dont wanna be loved "equally" or "just the same as everyone else". I wanna be loved MORE than everyone else, even if its just by one person, i'll be contented. I'm just sick of having to fight to be in first place. Sick of fighting for their affections. Just plain sick and so damn tired.
Guess its time for the barriers to come back up again. Its been down for way too long, and when that happens, all u do is get hurt. Best to not let anyone in, that way you only have yourself to answer to. no one on ur right or left. no chance of getting hurt. i have me and thats all i need. Cuz i dont wanna cry anymore, dont wanna feel sad, I honestly have no more tears to cry, no more energy to feel sad.
but as good as that sounds, i'm lying. Blatantly lying to myself. But maybe if i repeat it to myself over and over, it'll actually start to be true sooner or later.
Just hope its sooner. Oh please.

This was gonna be his wedding song, so from here on out, everytime you hear it, dont forget to remember him. Always remember to live life to the fullest, because even though he cant do it anymore, it's wat he would have wanted, cause that just the kind of person he was. He loved life. Plain and simple, so live for him, and thank God for each day you get, cuz honestly, everyday counts. I love you kenny!

Good News: The crying has now ceased, i mean, theres still the occasional tear, but i've found the key to not crying. Think about anything and absolutely everything but him. and i'll make it through the day w/o crying. well, w/o crying too much anyway.
Bad News: Though my eyes stay relatively dry now, there seems to be this constant empty. hollowed out feeling in my heart. This constant fear, like the one you get when you're going downwards on the rollercoaster. The feeling's similar i guess, but unlike the fact that you can get off at the end of the rollercoaster ride, there is no getting off here. no going back. no changing the outcome. its stuck in stone. etched into my memory forever; never to be lost.
People keep telling me that i'll get over it, and that time heals all wounds, and i get that. I honestly do. But thats never gonna bring him back, and i'm never gonna stop missing him. Its not gonna get rid of the fact that he died even before he could reach his 17th birthday. Kenny, on top of being family, you'll always be one of my best friends. and i promise never to forget to remember. I love you...always. and you'll always live on, in the memories of those who love you.
In his short span of time on this Earth, he managed to do something most ppl spend their entire lives trying to do, but never achieve.
He made a difference. an actual difference, and i think there's alot to be said about that.
In Loving Memory of my cousin Kenneth...You'll be missed hun. Till we meet again in heaven, always know that i love you.
PS....
and just cause i know you'll LOVE it, i'll say your word for you. You ready, u ready? k here it comes...... WHOOOOOOOOPPPPAAAAHHHHH!!!! haha! u'd better be happy with that, cause its all your getting. =)

I have so much to write about. But for once, i have no words to describe them. For all my eloquence, i have nothing to say. Can't seem to quite put it all together yet. Maybe i never will, but for now, i have nothing to say except that you should never let your gaurd down. ever. Hoping is a big no-no. theres no such thing as "fair" in this life. and however sad and unfair that is, thats the cold hard truth.
Life is SCREWED UP sometimes....and if one more person tells me "it's meant to be" or "everything happens for a reason" or "he's in a better place" or anything of that sort, i will honestly PUNCH YOU OUT. So if u have nothing out of the ordinary to say, just dont say it at all...unless you want a huge black eye at the end of the day. Just be there for me. your presence and silence and knowing you're there is all i need. For now anyway...
ps...i'm so sorry if i'm being a pain. but right now , i honestly just dont care.

Finally! The weekend is here! At the snail paced rate the week was going, you'd have thought that hell would freeze over before you'd finally get to say "Thank God it's Friday"...alright, i admit that i tend to exagerate sometimes, and this is most def one of those times.haha!
Anyways, something happened today that sort of made me think, not that thats something new for me, my mind's always buzzing with something or another, whether or not that something makes any sense is a completely different matter though. Yea, so back to my thoughts. The younger generation of today seem to have placed this label or stereotype on the older generation; that they are seemingly boring, mundane nags who have nothing better to do but to make our lives living hell, and i admit, that can be quite true for some of them and more often than not, they are guilty of doing the exact same thing. Stereotyping and catergorizing. They thing all teenagers are the exact same replica of one another. Spineless jellyfishes who are too afraid to be different so instead just conform to the norms of society and of their peers.
This lady today got so angry with a bunch of teenagers and blurted out, "You youngsters are all the same! All that comes out of your mouths' are profanities." Well, i have news for all of you out there who think along those lines. We arnt all the same, so if you want us to treat you with some respect, you should learn how to reciprocate that respect as well. It goes both ways just as it takes 2 hand to clap, and 2 to tango...STOP with the warped generalisations already!
And for the younger generation, give them a chance. Not all of em are out to get you and make your life a living hell. There is SOME truth to the things they say, and they have walked this earth longer than we have, They've seen more, experienced more, and have a lifetime of knowledge on us...so hear them out. You might just be suprised at what you hear! and the same thing goes for the older people, give us a chance, you never know, you might actually like us...we're not all that bad after all!
kk! i'm out! got hw to do...AGAIN! whats new, story of my life...2.5 more months!! ARGHHH!!

And there you went....
Sky’s gone dark; the stars are out I’m left standing in a pool of doubt Distance grows, the end is nigh But I still can’t find a reason why
I ponder. I wonder I yearn for an answer But the trains pulled out Too late, you’re gone forever
A cluster forms; the clouds gather above me I pray for the rain to wash away my fears meant to be Sorry but I really meant to say So many things along the way
Oh the rain keeps on coming Feels like a flood in my head Is it apprehension? Trepidation? Now I can’t seem to find the demarcation
Somehow it seems so strange How things can so easily change One moment you’re there, the next you’re gone But I’m still here, waiting for the dawn
Come back to me Wherever you may be I wonder if you know how I ache Each morn’ as I wake

When i came online the last time, i found out that i'd been tagged, and then i subsequesntly promptly forgot what i'd wanted to blog about...lol! Typical me!
Its August, the month of all the university open days in australia, and the way it works is that they have a couple of universities allocated to each weekend, and then you pick and choose the ones you wanna attend. Granted you cant attend all of em since some of them are at opposing sections of the state. So last weekend i went to Moansh University. Now i'd initially had my mind set on RMIT cause its apparently got the best journalism course here, but then i visited Moansh, and i LOVE it. Like abs love it! Love the way the course is structured, that you get work placement at the end of your undergrad degrees, and that in your 3rd year, you have the option of doing a partial internship and a research programme which takes you to places like New York, London, Belgium and Paris!!! o man, my dream come true! i'm in seventh heaven just thinking abt it !
We hafta start filling out uni applications soon, so i guess i'll make my decision after attending the RMIT open day this weekend....i have a dilemma now! :( hopefully i'll be able to make up my mind, and RMIT will have smthin amazing to offer too! if not, monash is looking pretty awesome right abt now! ;) Alrighty! i hafta go now! Have 2 tests tmr! sob! but o well, u gotta do what u gotta do...

Lata tagged me, now i hafta do this...how wonderful!
Each player of this game starts off with five things they like about their bodies. People who get tagged must write in a blog of their own the five things they love about their bodies as well. Start every line with "I love...because...". I assure you, you might just surprise yourself by how difficult it is to come up with this list. Please state the rules of this game clearly. At the end you must choose as many people as you'd like to be tagged and list their names. No tagbacks.
1) I love my eyes, they're pretty expressive and have a nice colour too (hazel with flecks of gold) 2) I love my fingernails cause they look as good as fake nails but are 100% real 3) I love my mouth, it permits me to share my wonderful sarcasm with the people i love! 4) I love my hair, its long and flowing and looks good all messed up too 5) I love my fingers, they're all nice and slim/long from all those years of playing the piano
Oooo! now i get to tag ppl! Muahahha!!
The people who've gotta do this: Joel, sammy, taufiq, thanesh, jade, jing
