Hmm, curiously this song just crept onto my laptop and I just happened to hear it when I shuffled iTunes around.
The lyrics really hit straight at me, I like it how 98 degrees songs are rather descriptive and something we all can relate to.
Here are the lyrics (sob sob)
We do almost everything
That lovers do
And that why’s it’s hard
Just to be friends with you
And everytime your heart is broken
By the fool I want you to know
That it hurts me too
It’s hard to wipe your tears away
Knowing you should be with me, tell meWhy, why are we still friends
When everything says
We should be more than what we are
And tell me why
Everytime I find someone that I like
We always end up being just friendsI would hate for you to find somebody new
Who you really love
Cause it could mean losing you
But am I a fool girl not to say
If I’m always scared I’ll lose you anyway
Somehow someway I’ve got to choose
Got to choose no matter if it’s win or loseI don’t want to be like your brother
I don’t want to be your best friend
I only want to be your lover
When will this end?
If I told you that I want to be in your life?
If you could be the woman in mine
The fact of the matter is.. we are all jealous lovers, its just hard to express what we feel sometimes. But sometimes its just for the better that you don’t end up together
P.s. Will be posting the mp3 later tonight. Sorta got a rush for dance class now…
Just a short little ditty I wrote today. I sing badly, so if you willing to torture your ears please go ahead and click on the mp3 link. Its not an fantastic song, just wrote the song with the imagination it’ll be used in a short scene in a drama. Just revving my engine to make sure its there. Heres the lyrics
Baby, I’m for real
Baby, no doubts about it
Put your hand in mine for a whileWipe these tears you’re cryin’
Hurt by all the lyin’
Its so hard to come this farI don’t want to hurt you
Its ain’t easy to say I love you
But I’ll be here to dry your eyes
Here is the mp3 of the song.
Just had to share a hilarious chuckle I had yesterday after service.
I was talking to my member Self-suan girl (henceforth known as the SSG) about shopping for my shoes; well, just read our conversation …
Me : Hey I wanna get new gai gai shoes, maybe we can go eastpoint get?
SSG : Me too! I need to get shoes for my feet!
(I turn to her in amazement in what she said)
Me : Of course for feet lah! What else can you get shoes for
SSG : (Trying to save herself) I duno leh, I think some people like to wear them around their neck.
Needless to say I was laughing all the way to the bus-stop.
Jaimes is gonna buy Chuck Taylors and hang them around his neck like an ornament.

Before all ya say I’m an impulsive buyer, I’d like to make a list of the things i need/want/have to get in the near future.
P.s. Its not necessarily in order of importance.
Just a funny random thought I had in service when Pastor was explaining how pearls were made
So if you’re giving your wife a pearl necklace, its like saying;
Wife : “Oh its lovely!”
Husband: “Hell yeah it is! Its the culmination of all the irritation I’ve suffered from you all these years.”
And if you think about… a pearl is sorta like a over-glorified piece of Pi-Sai.
Jaimes now understands why they chose Pearl as a brand name for drums.

ARGH!~!~!
I’m not very sure, but I really have to get this off my chest; recently there’s just too many people in my life having hissy fits. And not only hissy fits; hissy fits directed at me!
I’m not talking just about the girls, the males are also no excluded. It just seems that the single slightest irritation will piss you off.
I’m sorry, I really just have to rant, you all really have to lighten up abit more. And don’t take me for a emotional punching bag; yes, I’m here as a friend to hear out your troubles, I’m trying my best to exercise my hearing ear (and believe me, I was much worst than I am now), but you don’t have to direct everything you’re facing to me.
And don’t blame me for being (apparently) cheery all the time; you think I may exude a “happy-go-lucky” attitude, but the truth is I all but that. Like any other normal joe, I do feel depressed, sad and all the other human emotions too, sometimes more than other people do. The thing is that I learned to a certain degree to either suppress this feelings or to control them, especially when its not fair to blast at people who don’t know my situation. I’m not perfect, I’m still a work-in-progress.
The fact that you have a hissy fit is just a sign that you want to share your problem with others unconsciously, but don’t know how to express yourself in the proper way.
Enough with the dissecting with the situation, I’m just sick and tired personally with people treating me as an emotional punching bag. Its just not healthy for my own self-esteem; the worse thing is I have my own problems and I don’t see you ever listening to MY problems, so its quite a unbalanced one-way relationship.
I think I really have to cut down on my transient friends, its not healthy for my spirit, to have a higher expectation for a friend when he/she cannot fulfill it. Its not anybody’s fault, it just means I don’t mean as much to you as you do to me.
Jaimes’ chest feels much lighter.
I was fiddling around and wanted to make those forum signature moving gifs, so I went to my evil self and decided I’ll use this opportune time to use footage from the penalty goal in Anfield! Its Frankie doing the celebration his way! Look at that cheeky smirk on his face! It must have been how he made Reina go the wrong way

FREAKING SWEET!
Might take a while for it to load though.
Its kinda sleepy at 1 am on this drowsy Friday night. I’ve been trying to lose weight recently by playing soccer much more often and of course attending Ryan’s dance training. But I guess its been counter-acted by me drinking way too much Apple juice. Something about that appley-goodness, and mind you, its not even any-fresher-you-have-to-peel-yourself brand. Its in-house Giant brand loh! Oh well, now you know why I can’t stretch that far apart in dance class…
Anyway, just decided to highlight some of my musical influences that really made an impression on me, some are guitar heroes, others are just mainstream popsters. Maybe make this a regular thing in my blog, just as a homage to all these people who tickled my ears right.
So I’ll start with Old Slow Hand himself… Eric Clapton.

I have to admit, I rather t3h sux at writing songs. I could never string both a good melody or lyric together.
Its either a good lyric, or a good melody. Coupled with inherent tone-deafness and senility,I tend to forget what I write altogether.
Heres me trying to write a lyric.

Hard to say Hello
Its not even evening yet
When you arrive so unexpectedly
You didn’t even give me time to prepare
Should I say something lovely, witty or refrain?
Maybe I’ll just stay silent
With a glancing hope you’ll come talk to me
I’m beating myself up inside
That I find it so hard to say hello.
Chorus
The words in my heart
Will never find their way upon your ears
(Its) as if stone walls
Are stopping me from making the message clear
I just want to ask “Are you ok?”
But something else comes in the way.
Please believe me, I’m not lying, its not something I meant to say.
Bridge
Whenever I see you sad
I long to be the one that cries with you
I know it’ll take a real man
But I never can seem to show you I’m true.
