happiness lost

i'm so afraid to be happy nowadays.

to me, happiness is so temporary. who knows when its gonna be snatched outta my hands again?

time

time is
too slow for those who wait
too swift for those who fear
too long for those who grieve
too short for those who rejoice
but for those who love,
time is eternity.

a silver lining around the dark clouds

i see how much my life has changed.

soon, a new chapter is beginning for me


... is it?


i'm fortunate in many ways i'd never thought possible.

and till this day, i still can't believe its real.

pretty colours :-D

Don't turn your laughing eyes away
You know I love you
There's no need to be afraid
Hearts are made to be broken
They get stronger by the day
I'll take a chance and drop all my defenses
Just to hear you say


How long is the road
How long is the ride
How long is the darkness till we get to the light
Go easy on me
Cause you already know
No matter the distance
I'll stay on the road to your heart

You say I've been a fool too long
You wonder why I have the strength to carry on
I see through your weakness
Your tough guy iron mask
It's not really that hard or complicated
There's no need to ask

How long is the road
How long is the ride
How long is the darkness till we get to the light
Go easy on me
Cause you already know
No matter the distance
I'll stay on the road to your heart
I'll stay on the road to your heart
I'll stay on the road to your heart

don't worry, be happy :)

sometimes, its gd 2b lazy. look what happens when i go against my instincts and drag myself down all the way 2 NTU open house..

UTTER EXHASUTION.

so i've learnt my lesson and u can bet i won't be going 4 any other open houses anytime soon. audrey, was it fruitful at NUS? haha.

THANKS AND HUGS to all those who remembered and were kind enough 2 send me birthday wishes :) :) :)

probably my most interesting b'day yet..trust NTU 2 hold their open house on the same day.. whatever. haha. at least i can say i 'killed 2 birds with one stone' - got 2 see my friends and check out NTU at the same time.

on a side note, i managed 2 cheer up someone 2day and i feel really gd abt it.. it sure pays 2b positive. im glad i was able 2 make tt person's day.

"for every minute you spend being miserable, you lose 60 seconds of happiness." :)



Hey, hey, did you ever think there might be another way
to just feel better, just feel better, about today?
oh, no, if you never want to turn and go away
you might feel better, might feel better, if you stay

yeah, yeah, I bet you haven't heard a word I said
yeah, yeah, you've had enough of all your trying
just give up the state of mind you're in

if you want to be somebody else
if you're tired of fighting battles with yourself
if you want to be somebody else
change your mind, change your mind


hey, hey have you ever danced in the rain
or thanked the sun just for shining, just for shining? or the sea?
oh, no, take it all in the world to show you that
you look much better, look much better, when you glow

yeah, yeah, I hope you've heard every word I've said
yeah, yeah, had enough of all your trying
just give up the state of mind you're in

if you want to be somebody else
if you're tired of fighting battles with yourself
if you want to be somebody else
change your mind, change your mind

Hey hey what ya say
We both go and seize the day?
cause what's your hurry
what's your hurry anyway?

if you want to be somebody else
if you're tired of fighting battles with yourself
if you want to be somebody else
change your mind, change your mind

bad day?

"everything happens for a reason."


well, that's what they all say. sometimes i believe it, sometimes i don't.

i haven't applied for my uni courses yet, but i will do so soon.


life goes on...


Where is the moment when we need it the most
You kick up the leaves and the magic is lost
They tell me your blue sky's faded to grey
They tell me your passion's gone away

And I don't need no carrying on
Stand in the line just ahead of the law
You're faking a smile with the coffee you go
You tell me your life's been way off line
You're falling to pieces every time
And I don't need no carrying on

Cause you had a bad day
You're taking one down
You sing a sad song just to turn it around
You say you don't know
You tell me don't lie
You work at a smile and you go for a ride
You had a bad day
The camera don't lie
You're coming back down and you really don't mind
You had a bad day
You had a bad day

- Daniel Powter: Bad Day -

i belong to you + johari

my current favourite song. chanced upon it. i only put the english parts of the song here :)


There is no reason, there is no rhyme
It's crystal clear
I hear your voice
And all the darkness disappears
Everytime I look into your eyes
You make me love you
And I do truly love you
How you make me love you
And I do truly love you

I belong to you, you belong to me
Forever

Want you
Baby I want you
And I thought that you should know
That I believe
And your the wind that's underneath my wings
I belong to you, you belong to me

You're my fantasy
You're my gentle breeze
And I'll never let you go
You're the piece that makes me whole
I can feel you in my soul

- Anastacia feat. Eros Ramazzotti: I belong to you -


WAIT!!!!

before u go, pls take sometime to visit http://kevan.org/johari?name=joanne_the_great ...you'll see what it is soon enough.

thanks! :)
