You say you want diamonds on a ring of gold
You say you want your story to remain untold.
All the promises we make
From the cradle to the grave
When all I want is you.

You say you'll give me a highway with no-one on it
Treasure, just to look upon it
All the riches in the night.
You say you'll give me eyes in the moon of blindness
A river in a time of drynessA harbour in the tempest.
All the promises we make, from the cradle to the grave
When all I need is you.

You say you want your love to work out right
To last with me through the night.
You say you want diamonds on a ring of gold
Your story to remain untold
Your love not to grow cold.
All the promises we break, from the cradle to the grave
When all I want is you.


i really do want you.


**black and burnt and feeling damn -urgh-. i miss you.

hey all. =D
after a 2 month 4 day hiatus, yur darling blogging-bangala is finally back! (barely alive though, considering that within the span of a week, i've been to 3 doctors, each scheduling me for a throat scan, chest scan and dunnoe what shit respectively. but in all fairness, i have a naturally hoarse voice and was really coughing badly then.)

remember when yur parents told yu to be careful of what yu wish for? they were right, for once. before i started work in UOB, i was craving a bout of change, excitement and a colossal challenge in my worklife. and i've got, as usual, more than i bargained for. like hello?! i wished for A bout, meaning ONE! not a gazillion-trillion super million bouts of adrenalin-squeezing experiences! not good at all for the heart. oh wells, at least my contract ends 28th of this month. haha and that will mark the longest period of commitment in my career yet! so proud of myself. wheee. but i'll never do it againn.

never expected March would bring along with it such a huge change in my life. for the first time, i feel damned lost. with all the uni admissions and whatnot. i mean, think about it. will yur life just go to waste, should yu choose not to pursue an education straight after As?!
my results came as quite a surprise to me. and yes, i did not deserve what i've got. (am i stuck in a rut now.) anyhow, it gave me an option of local studies, which at this point in time i really cannot fathom. yet an overseas education would mean tripling the costs and reaping (seemingly) the same results. the thing in question is whether im selfish enough to put my parents through funding my horribly expensive education.
moreover, it wouldn't take an archaeologist (haha) to realize that im a totally erratic, changeable commitment phobe. i'm still not sure if i can really hold on to my interests for a sustained period of time. and right now, its a huge step i'm taking that will cost a whole lot of money. i don't wanna waste myself anymore.

on a brighter, lighter, happier note, i'm gonna meet eliz and wx for NUS Open Day tmr! hopefully i might find the second best course i want, settle down in Singapore and live miserably ever after. haha ok that was redundant. what i actually wanted to say was: I LOVE ELIZ and her MUM! =) her mum's like super sweet.. helped me buy sooo much stuf frm liverpool. really made my day. hehee. so excited to see the purchases. oh, and to meet eliz again too. =)

mans. hadn't noticed i blogged so much. it's kinda therapeutic though. haha so yu guys can expect more frequent bitchings frm me in the near future! sign of bad things to come, huh? anyways, kudos to yu for ploughing thru this primarily whining entry. have a hug and kiss on me!

Your Heart Is Orange

Love equals unbridled happiness for you. You enjoy the wild ride of falling in love.
And while the ride is fun for a while, you always get off once the thrill is gone.

Your flirting style: Hyper

Your lucky first date: Anything you need your passport for!

Your dream lover: Is both daring and well grounded

What you bring to relationships: Energy

You Are Vixen

Sexy and sultry, you're the one all the other reindeer dream about.

Why You're Naughty: That fur pulling spat you got into with Dancer over Santa.

Why You're Nice: Because even when you're nice, you're still delightfully naughty!

Your World View
Although you make a brave show of being self-sufficient, beneath this you are unhappy and rather mixed up.
You do not know what love is, and you are more likely to boast about your conquests in a bar than prove them in a bedroom.
You tend to attract the wrong kind of lover.

It's hard to imagine you leading a full, happy life.
The warmth and give-and-take of love are not for you.
Your sex life is ringed with unreality, and you neither understand nor appreciate the opposite sex.

You Are Internal - Skeptic - Empowered
You feel your life is controlled internally.
If you want something, you make it happen.
You don't wait around for things to go your way.
You value your independence and don't like others to have control.

You are a total skeptic when it comes to luck.
You believe that people use luck as a crutch to avoid responsibility.
You control your own destiny. The universe has nothing to do with it.
You believe everything can be explained - and you tend to over analyze situations.

You have a good deal of power, but you also know the pecking order.
You realize that working the system does get you further.
You know who to defer to and who to control.
When it comes to the game of life, you play things flawlessly.

Your Animal Personality
Your Power Animal: Deer

Animal You Were in a Past Life: Panda

You are a fun-seeker - an adventurous, risk-taker.
While you are spontaneous, you are not very rational.

Your Hair Should Be Blue
Wild, brilliant, and out of control.
You're a risk taker with an eye to the future.

Your Personality Is
Artisan (SP)

You are both grounded and flexible. You adapt well to new situations.
You are playful and free spirited - but you are also dependable and never flaky.

You don't do well in conservative, stuffy situations.
It's probably very hard for you to keep a normal job or stay in school.

You are always up for fun and adventure. Most people are too boring for you.
You take risks and bend the rules. And if things don't work out, you chock it up to life experience.

In love, you tend to take things quickly - but you have a huge problem with commitment.

At work, you need to make your own rules. You're best suited to be an entrepreneur.

With others, you are animated and physical. You prefer doing something with friends to just hanging out.

As far as your looks go, you tend to be buff and in good shape. Your spend more time on your body than your clothes.

On weekends, you need to keep active. From cooking up a storm to running a 5K, you wear yourself out.

I light a candle
In the garden of love
To blind the angels
Looking down from above

I want, I need
The fruit of your pine
It tastes so bittersweet
Cause I know it's not mine

I want to come inside

Hit the lights
And I'll come crawling to your window tonight
Come on and send the sign
I'll be your dirty little secret and you'll be mine

You got me knock knock knocking at your door
And I'll be coming back for more
We made a promise and we´ll keep it
Our Dirty Little Secret

We act like strangers
When you're holding her hand
Cause there's a danger
That we both understand

We run like thieves
Through the temple of sin
´till we fall on our knees
then you go back to hell

I want to feel alive

Hit the lights
And I'll come crawling to your window tonight
Come on and send the sign
I'll be your dirty little secret and you'll be mine

You got me knock knock knocking at your door
And I'll be coming back for more
We made a promise and we´ll keep it
Our Dirty Little Secret.


it's 3 days to Christmas! hehe and i'm doing quite a good job being a Santa Claus to myself! whee. bought the Jacob's Creek rose finally. it's yummy! and i bought new phone! Motorola V3. a lot of people probably have it, but i like it still the same. =)

i'm presently officially suffering from blocker's blog. cant seem to even string two words together! embarassing. haha.. maybe that's just Premature Caveman Syndrome huh? i wouldn't know till i die from it. oh wells. prom had been the highlight of my month! shitloads of experiences and a smorgasbord of emotions in full swing. COOL. and that, just about sums it all.

haha.. seriously hadn't expected my hols to be THIS unexciting.. and to top things off.. im still jobless!!! =(

eeww. this is like, so not my normal style of blogging. arghh. i sound jaded. even a tad commercialized. what is my problem?!

ooh. my stint at Allen & Gledhill was short but quite fun. people rushing about as though they really had something to do. ha. acting important and shit. so i followed suit. wore nice stuf. spoke properly. and carried about my job in the most inefficient manner possible. what great teachers they are. haha. that's not what i want in life though. i deserve so much more action. anyone up there!? offer me a job that i'd love please...

Image hosted by Photobucket.comLiverpool 3 - 0 Deportivo Saprissa, goals from Crouch, Gerrard, and CROUCH again led Liverpool to a comfortable win over the Costa Rica side, clinching the coveted final spot at about 8.15pm aprroximately, Singapore time. they are now one of the two contenders for the World's Best Football team, alongside Brazil's Sao Paolo. (which happens to be KaKa's ex-club!) would they finally emerge victorious and give fans something other than THAT NIGHT IN ISTANSBUL to gush about? stay tuned to find out, and keep your fingers crossed!

thanks sweeny for the quizzes. havent been doing much lately, except possibly planning a not-so-surprise trip to joe's shop in Indonesia (en route a fantastic korea ski trip) with hua!
by the way, sweeny seems pretty big on the idea of marrying hua actually. haha. she got all possessive the other day, when i just casually mentioned my plans for the romantic escapade with hua come 2006. oh no. actually she went over-the-top mad.. i could swear i even saw a fleeting green glint in her eyes!
haha. to that i merely responded with "hua is no more than a fling" and that i'd return her (i.e. ASK FOR REFUND) when i'm done travelling.. but that was not before physically reiterating my point first! as it happens, i was drinking sugarcane juice at that fateful moment, and because i'm so given to active gesticulation during conversations... when the word FLING came into mind, i reflexively FLUNG! and there! a sweeny with droplets of sugarcane mingled with saliva. =)
lesson of the day: it doesnt pay to be jealous, does it?

"inside the snowglobe on my fathers desk,
there was a penguin wearing a red-and-white striped scarf.
when i was little,
my father would pull me unto his lap and reach for the snowglobe.
he would turn it over,
letting all the snow collect on the top, then quickly invert it.

the two of us watched the snow fall around the penguin..

the penguin was alone in there,
so I thought and worried for him.
whenI told my father this, he said:
don't worry. he has a nice life. He's trapped inside a perfect world"

arghh. bad stomachache this afternoon. i woke up at like 12pm la!
missed my math mock. (no alliteration intended) and i'm now officially stressed. so few days left, and i aint doing anything. as if the more high strung i get, the less inclined i am to do anything about it. i keep thinking of breaking free, of all the fun, amazing things i'd be doing after the As.

then i suddenly remembered what Mr Yong said long ago when i was a canoeist. people who really fail at mental preparation are actually those who visualize the end result, but not the painful process they would have to go through achieving the goal. Beginning with the End in mind is a good thing, but focus-ing solely on the End isn't.

i hate this. i know im disappointing a lot of my friends who really care about me, but i hope they believe when i say that i want to work towards being my best; that i too, am concerned about the upcoming exams. i'm so sorry people, for making you guys worry yet again.

after the As, i wouldnt be this sheltered anymore. i can't afford to live my life so irresponsibly anymore. what a scary thought. and like the pee icing on the shit cake, turns out that i want Australia, but my parents don't. why didn't they tell me this earlier?! i have no idea where i to go from here anymore. am i experiencing a mid-life crisis?! if i am, then im also highly likely to die at the ripe old age of... 38! which might not be a bad idea after all actually.. time to plan for my retirement. ok, i meant study.

frankly speaking, i'm just a hot dog.

Liverpool 1-0 Blackburn Rovers
scorer: Djibril Cisse (75)
second win the whole season, and a well-fought crucial match. LFC sent a clear message that they aren't about to give up their title chase this season, bouncing back magnificently after the defeat by chelsea the last gameweek. and oh my gosh. Cisse is how sweet! he was reproted to be "overcome with joy at scoring (why shouldn't he!) and after celebrating wildly he took time out to run over and shake manager Rafael Benitez by the hand. =) they were my two favouritest men at that moment! i missed the confident way Cisse played when he first came, and now he's regaining his full strength gradually. fantastic!! i just cant get enough of him lah.. haha. oh! just remembered my wager with sarah last year at the spurs match. i swore to dye my hair red like him if he's scored then, but he didnt. maybe i'd dye it when he scores the 17th goal of the season? haha!

morientes was good too. if only he would find his form. carra got to captain the team!! yay. haha but hope stevie G recovers soon. he's lost too many playing chances to injuries, poor lad. one more thing, i'm quite pissed at the way people keep boo-ing Crouch for his goalscoring duck, hello?! he's a darn good striker la. clever positioning, intuitive play and all. try achieving his level of finesse in footwork when you're THAT tall. anyway if strikers are expected to score every single match for them to be legendary, how come Alan Shearer, the undisputed premiership goalscoring king have only 240 goals to his name with 373 appearances? (i find this impressive btw)

i like fast cars and i cannot lie. you other sisters can't deny!

super pissed. so an explanation i demanded
but then again, i really needn't have bothered..
for turns out, it just couldnt find another word for fat!


and that's music to my ears! (which incidentally are still ringing from the slap johannes gave me!! gRr. tomorrow, he dies.) haha anyway, today i was dead sure i lost my handphone for real.. only to find -hours later- that my bro has mobile-napped it and is demanding ransom. my gosh. i seriously dunnoe which is worse lah. but at least i didnt throw my hp in the dustbin this time! pheww.

shaun: "what happens when you feed a politician Viagra?"
vee and cons: -stun-
shaun (in barely controlled glee): "he grows taller."

vee: "then what happens when you feed laxatives to shaun?"
-not waiting for a response- "he grows bigger."
cons: hehehe.. (so bimboe!)
shaun: -deep in thought- "i'll think of a comeback"

Summer has come and passed
The innocent can never last
wake me up when september ends

like my fathers come to pass
seven years has gone so fast
wake me up when september ends

here comes the rain again
falling from the stars
drenched in my pain again
becoming who we are

as my memory rests
but never forgets what I lost
wake me up when september ends

summer has come and passed
the innocent can never last
wake me up when september ends

ring out the bells again
like we did when spring began
wake me up when september ends

here comes the rain again
falling from the stars
drenched in my pain again
becoming who we are

as my memory rests
but never forgets what I lost
wake me up when september ends

Summer has come and passed
The innocent can never last
wake me up when september ends

like my father's come to pass
twenty years has gone so fast
wake me up when september ends (which technically isn't far off)

will do follow up on this entry of mine. my internet's currently down. wails. i wanna blog. don't miss me!

You Should Learn Portuguese

Muito legal! For you, learning a language is all about the lifestyle that comes with it.
And Brazilian beaches, hotties, parties, and soccer matches are just your style.
ok. this is freakishly accurate. simply fresco! haha.

Your Inner Child Is Angry

You're not an angry person.
But when you don't get your way, watch out.
Like a very manipulative kid, you will get what you want.
Even if it takes a little kicking and screaming.
oops. looks like im still the bitchy little shit, huh?

You Are Mexican Food

Spicy yet dependable.
You pull punches, but people still love you.
awww.. mucho gracias. =)

CHUBBY HUBBY!

you scored 55% SWEET, 85% CHUNKY and 88% UNIQUE!
fudge-covered peanut butter-filled pretzels in vanilla malt ice cream rippled with fudge & peanut butter
Whew! You've got a lot going on, just like this ice cream flavor! You are wild & crazy, with a creative side to match. You see & act out the extraordinary, but you are still a nice person to others. You like to stand out in a crowd, and trust me, you do.

thanks loads to serene for this quiz! ps: "herbie is such a bitch show no wonder vee loves it" - sound familiar, dear? grrr. haha anyhow, stay tuned for the next instalment of: ivee's mad and useless quizzes. (it's a pun!)

Life is good..
DFS imported Jim Beam is somehow nicer than those outside! haha yay!! a couple of shots and i'm back to normal again.. no flu, no fever, no sickness already!
Life is great..
Michael Owen's
on a scoring streak. used to be my favourite player when he was at Liverpool, and he still is, despite his departure. because he's down to earth and overall a good and decent guy. he even sent me an autographed postcard once! =) wish him all the best with the toons. really hope he'll return to Merseyside one day, where his heart is. show your stuff, my darlingest Golden Boy!
Life is unbelievable.

Life is hard..
i'm resuming training for rock-hard abs from this day on. no more procrastination!
Life is cruel..
just when i'm getting used to a bachelorette's pad.. my family's back! haha but my mum brought with her a treasure trove of accessories, clothes, shoes and BRAS! my gosh. i was just saying that day tt triumph's newest range (floral T-backs and the cleavage-enhancing ones) was damn nice, and they're mine now!
Life is so beautiful!

have you ever blasted your woofer system so loudly in the dead of the night, and have your neighbours show up at your doorstep in their nighties/PJs with 8 policemen, holding each a loudhailer, demanding for you to peacefully surrender your remote control?

you haven't? well, neither have i! haha. Liverpool drew Brum 2-2 last night. finally the Reds are starting to find the back of the net, but along goes our cleansheet. =( i think its all Josemi's (un)doing. maybe i'm just biased, but to me he just doesnt contribute much. sigh. by the way, they were Garcia and Cisse goals. and it's about time for the both of them! they deserve to see their names on the scoresheet after all the sweat and misses! Warnock had an own goal though, poor lad. he's been so promising this season. bad things happen to good people i guess. hope this will not get him down. if stevieG can step out of his OG nightmare, he can too. hold your head up high dudes. =) go Reds!

did i mention that the nice 7-eleven mat (meaning malay guy) at my place is really called "MAT"? haha cool right! anyways, the combination of Ben&Jerry's Cherry Garcia with corndogs is an orgasmically gastronomic delight! top it off with Ritz cheese crackers, bottled magaritas.. and ta-da! you're in heaven.
