Stolen by Dashboard Confessional

"Stolen"

We watch the season pull up its own stakes

And catch the last weekend of the last week

Before the gold and the glimmer have been replaced,

Another sun soaked season fades away

You have stolen my heart

Invitation only, grant farewells

Crush the best one, of the best ones

Clear liquor and cloudy eyed, too early to say goodnight

You have stolen my heart

And from the ballroom floor we are in celebration

One good stretch before our hibernation

Our dreams assured and we all, will sleep well

You have stolen

You have stolen my heart

I watch you spin around in the highest heels

You are the best one, of the best onesWe all look like we feel

You have stolen my

You have stolen my heart

Alex To (杜徳偉) - 把你藏起來 (Ba Ni Chang Qi Lai)

This is one song that I really like from Alex To (杜徳偉) - 把你藏起來 (Ba Ni Chang Qi Lai - Keep & Hide You)

There's this phrase in this song that is so sweet... I think if a guy says that to the girl he loves/likes... Think that girl will just melt... hahaah! Here's the lyrics of the song...please pardon my translation as my Chinese is not very good...

把你藏起來 - 杜德偉
曲︰SHIN IN SOO
詞︰施人誠
編︰LEE JONG-PIL

把手伸出來 寫上我的愛 (Stretch your hand out & Write my love on it)
讓你的眼淚都停下來 (Let your tears flow down)
以後就算你 再怎麼愛遊盪 (Even if you let your love stray in the future)
愛像星空為你亮起來 (Love will still light up the sky around you)

*你的笑像一種魔法 把夜變成海 (Your smile is like magic, can turn night into sea)
我又恨又愛守在岸邊等待 (Regardless how much I hate and love, I will still be guarding by your side)
夜色越美我越難捱 心跳越厲害 (As the night gets longer/deeper, my heart pumps even faster (or my emotions grows stronger)
萬一妳迷路 怎麼回來 (In case you get lost, how are you coming back)

#好想把妳藏起來 藏在胸間的口袋 (I wish to hide/keep you in my front pocket)
把妳暖暖地融化 妳就再也離不開 (Slowly letting you melt, and you can never escape again)
我要把妳藏起來 永遠呵護這份愛 (I want to hide/keep you, I will pamper this love forever)
從此不讓別人想 只准和我一個人相愛 (I will never let others think, and allowed to be in love with me only)

Colorgenics - Personality Test

I used to be skeptical about these online personality tests... however, curiosity will somehow trigger me to click on the link to try it out...

Recently (within the past 2 months), I think some of these tests are quite true. Especially one that I took a couple of months back, it was so true that it gave me goosebumps. I thought to myself, maybe that's just coincidence... so I sent the link to 2 workmates of mine and they tried it out. WOAH! It was so true for them too... Then I start to realise, maybe these things can be quite accurate in many ways.

I don't know how they can be so accurate! Probably there are people out there who are really good at deciphering such things... Hmmmm....

Anyway, I just did another personality test (if you wanna try, click on this link http://www.paulgoldinresearch.com/cg/)

Here's the results of my test: (It's almost true... yet another sucker to these tests)

"Much of the time you are preoccupied with things of an intensely exciting nature. You need stimulation and variation with all matters pertaining to your life. You want to be regarded as an exciting and interesting personality being able to charm and influence others. You use powerful strategies with predictable outcomes so as to avoid endangering your chances of success or undermining other people's confidence in you.

Most people are conditioned by their environment and you are no exception. You are an extremely emotional person - so much so that 'the wrong word' can lead you to tears. You feel other people's pain. You feel the need of sympathetic relationships and a pleasant work environment in order to develop and grow. You are an impulsive, loving individual with a great deal of inherent feeling.

You lack confidence and that is a great pity because deep down you are indeed a warm caring person. This lack of confidence is making you wary of being drawn into any open discussion or conflict and so you feel as if you should let matters lie and leave well alone. But there may be a pleasant surprise in store for you. You are beginning to grow and very soon - sooner than you believed possible - this warm loving new you will be available for all to see and to appreciate.

You are an emotional, sincere and impressionable individual experiencing frustration and unnecessary stress. You vehemently resist any form of pressure from outside sources, insisting on your independence as an individual. You want to be a decision maker - to make up your own mind without interference. You wish to be able to draw your own conclusions and arrive at your own decisions. You detest uniformity and mediocrity as you want to be regarded as one who gives authoritative opinions. Your favourite expression could well be that 'I may not always be right but I am never wrong'. You're a perfectionist and even though you may feel that the other person's point of view may be right, you find it extremely difficult to admit that you could be wrong.

You really like doing what you do and, more than that, you like yourself. Your attitude to work and to life is that 'If its not fun - then don't do it'. You want to be liked and respected, not for who you are but for what you are - and it seems to be working."

HOW TRUE IS THAT??? Probably my best pals will know...

All about Melbourne....

I've been back in Singapore for 2 days now and I'm still thinking of Melbourne... must be the shops!!

As promised in my previous postings that I will put up some pics taken in Melbourne and Manila, you will see them in awhile. Yes I know I've been a real slacker lately... Hey can't blame me, i was working!! :o)

I have to say, Melbourne is a beautiful city... It's amazing that the tram system in this city is so good... just hop on and off to anywhere... it's real easy! Thanks to my friend, Yimay, she has been a wonderful tour guide while I was there.

Abit about Yimay... I knew Yimay since I was about 7yrs old. We went to the same school (both Primary and Secondary), and we parted ways when I left for New Zealand when I was 15yrs old. Since then, we hardly contacted each other. In fact, we weren't that close in school until much later. So when i came back to Singapore, only did I realise she was in Melbourne studying... Anyways, to cut a long story short, we managed to meet up again a few years back, since then we've stayed in touch and will meet up now & then...

So this trip has brought us closer cos' we spent alot of time together and talking about the good ol' days, and talking about all our other schoolmates... not forgetting her husband, Tim.... He is such a nice guy! So patient and kind. It was great spending time with them.

On Good Friday, Tim and Yimay took me to St Kilda and the Docklands.... it was a very nice and sunny day too... I am so blessed to have them as my guide.... They took me to this place for breakfast called the Pancake Parlour... woah! The pancakes were so yummy but the portion was too big for me to finish (see below).


Look at those pancakes... YUMMY EH?!


This is Yimay...


And Tim...

Then in the late afternoon, we decided to have some cakes at Docklands... look at my yummy cake and Tim's cake!! Looks good eh!? I'm still salivating just by looking at those pics...






Below are some pictures taken outside a cake shop in St. Kilda... Imagine eating all that??? ahhaha! I would love to but I better watch my weight :o)




Yimay & me...

These pictures were taken in St. Kilda and Docklands (see the cow on the tree... cute eh?!)













Will continue in my next blog cos' I'm feeling very sleepy now....

"Beautiful Girl" - Jose Mari Chan

Another nice song by Jose Mari Chan... I heard this a few years back and somehow, I still like this song alot...

"Please Be Careful With My Heart" - Jose Mari Chan

The first time I heard this song was when I was in Manila a couple of weeks back. Heard it when I was having dinner on my first night in Manila... Somehow, that song just stayed in my mind and I had to get the Jose Mari Chan CD. Anyway, I bought like 5 CDs in the end ahhaha! Not all Jose Mari Chan, got 2 of his CDs and the rest were some other Filipino artistes. Somehow I just like their music, not that I understand those that are not in English :o) But I still like the music :o)

Anyway, this song "Please Be Careful With My Heart" is a duet by Jose Mari Chan and Regine Velasquez is a very old song BUT listen to the lyrics... it's quite romantic! :o)

Enjoy....
