lifehouse - come back down

Staring right back in the face
A memory can't be erased
I know, because I tried
Start to feel the emptiness
And everything I'm gonna miss
I know, that I can't hide

All this time is passing by
I think it's time to just move on

When you come back down
If you land on your feet
I hope you find a way to make it back to me
When you come around
I'll be there for you
Don't have to be alone with what you're going through

Start to breathe and fake a smile
It's all the same after a while
I know, that you are tired
Carrying the ones you lost
A picture frame with all the thoughts
I know, you hold inside

I hope that you can find your way back
To the place where you belong

When you come back down
If you land on your feet
I hope you find a way to make it back to me
When you come around
I'll be there for you
Don't have to be alone with what you're going through

You're coming back down
You say you feel lost can I help you find it
When you come around
From time to time we all are blinded
You're coming back down
You don't have to tell me what you're feeling
I know what you're going through
I won't be the one that lets go of you

I think it's time to just move on

It's 5.39a.m. right now. Was doing my Econs tutorials then i decided to eat cup noodles and watch Smallville. Season 4 episode 18..heh. Then i heard this nice song playing right at the start of the show. Love it! Then i was like, 'hey that's lifehouse..' It's called 'Come Back Down'. Great song...i wonder why it wasnt popular then..or maybe i just didnt notice it. At the end of the show they sorta played the song again..and then they played 'You and Me'. I used to REALLY like the song last time..and now i like it again cos they played it in the show..heh (not to mention clark and lana was dancing..).

Anyway, back to this song..after the show i quickly googled the lyrics to get the title. Then searched dc++. God blessed me..justin shared it. Heh. Quickly downloaded and listened..nice! Found the guitar tabs but cant play though...jeremy's sleepin hehe.

Credits to Smallville again for the nice selection of songs, and for lifehouse to be guest stars. Just lurve the series! More of these songs and i'll turn full-time music blogger...lol.

p/s: i do realise this song must be kinda old/outdated by now...but who cares! Heh.

feels like today..

Rascal Flatts - Feels Like Today

I Woke up this morning
With this feeling inside me
that I can't explain
like a weight that I've carried
Been carried away, away

But I know something is coming
I don't know what it is
But I know it's amazing, you save me
My time is coming
And I'll find my way out of this longest drought...

It feels like today I know
It feels like today I'm sure
It's the one thing that's missin'
The one thing I'm wishin'
Life's sacred blessin' and then
It feels like today
Feels like today

You treat life like a picture
But it's not a moment thats frozen in time
It's not gonna wait
Til you make up your mind, at all

So while this storm is breaking
While there's light at the end of the tunnel
Keep running towards it
Releasing the pressure, that's my heartache
Soon this dam will break

And it feels like today I know,
it feels like today, I'm sure
It's the one thing that's missin'
The one thing you're wishin'
Life's sacred blessin' and then,
It feels like today

Feels like, feels like your life changes
Feels like, feels like your life changes

It's the one thing that's missin'
The one thing you're wishin'
Life's sacred blessin' and then,
It feels like today
Feels like, feels like your life changes
Feels like, feels like your life changes

This is one song i'd like to hear first thing in the morning after i wake up. Kinda like gives u the spirit to live the day, especially if u dun have enough sleep (like me). First heard this song in an episode of Smallville at the end of it and i knew i gotta get it. gotta love those songs they play in the series, heh. Very motivating.

Best moment to hear the song? Whenever you have this great adventure for the day, or great stuffs to do. like lets say a badminton competition? final exams? journey round the world? heh.

Speaking of motivational songs, i remember one song i liked to sing to myself everytime during SPM last year.

Shannon Noll - Shine

Get up, get up, get up, get up
And lift your head
C'mon, c'mon
Get up out of bed.
Today's the day you hold the world
With your song

Go now, go now, go now
Help ascalate
Angels come down
Help with this parade
To hear the voice ring out
C'mon lets shout
And let your song be heard

This is the time
This is the day
That we've been waiting for
All the world will stop
To watch you shine

Hey now, hey now, hey now, hey now
Sing your hymn
This is the new national anthem
We will all stand on guard
To let you be heard

Let go, let go, let go
All the cannons
How beautiful this world has become
Now everyone will see
What i belive
That these words should be sung

This is the time
This is the day
That we've been waiting for
All the world will stop
To watch you shine
This is the time
This is the day
That we've been waiting for
All the world believes
That you will shine

And if you fall
And if you fall
And if you trust and
Yes it will come true
Hey, hey, yeah

Me two cents worth of songs.

random thought of mine...

Have u ever thought of doing something so crazy/insane/unbelievable/impossible that no person in his right mind will do? I mean like suddenly just doing something out of the ordinary without thinking about the consequences or whatever that will happen to your life after that. No, i'm not talking about stuff they do in fear factor like bury yourself under thousands of cockroaches. Those stuff are temporary.

What i'm talkin about is somethin like deciding to just stop your college education halfway through even if u've been maintaining straight As, then decide on how to make the best out of your life. Travelling to London with 40bucks in your wallet and a backpack, and never returning home until u've been to every country. Hitch hiking around the country/world. Stuff like that. Stuff with such a great risk of failing, such a tough road to walk on, but u know that if u do SUCCEED in the end, your life was worth living.

Forget about playing safe, about taking into consideration all the possible outcomes of the serious decisions that u make before making the choice, about following what the rest are doing because so many people cant be wrong.

What if we just go through life without a plan? What if we just "let things be".."sun kei zi yin"? Seriously, without any plans whatsoever - living today without giving a single thought on how tomorrow might be. Using up the 40bucks in ur wallet which is all the money u have on a single meal..not thinking about how ur gonna have ur next meal. That's kinda fun, stupid though, heh.
But then again, what's the worst that could happen?

Nope. Can't do stuff like that. Dont have the courage. Maybe in the future. Heh.

Two roads diverged in a yellow wood,
And sorry I could not travel both
And be one traveler, long I stood
And looked down one as far as I could
To where it bent in the undergrowth;
Then took the other, as just as fair,
And having perhaps the better claim,
Because it was grassy and wanted wear;
Though as for that the passing there
Had worn them really about the same,
And both that morning equally lay
In leaves no step had trodden black.
Oh, I kept the first for another day!
Yet knowing how way leads on to way,
I doubted if I should ever come back.
I shall be telling this with a sigh
Somewhere ages and ages hence:
Two roads diverged in a wood, and I--
I took the one less traveled by,
And that has made all the difference.

i don't get it...

Why do people always get the wrong impression of whatever i say or do? Truth is...i'm not good with words..unless i think for like 5 seconds before saying anything. Let me rephrase that - i'm not good at spontaneous reactions. I mean like if i react to something instantly, i tend to give a wrong impression and people'll misunderstand what i'm trying to say or show.

Another thing - when people say something and when i say the same thing, sometimes others dont get the same meaning from me and from them. what the heck? is there something wrong with the way i communicate, the way i speak, the way i look when i say stuff? I think i'm better conveying my message through msn, cos i get to think and write, and people dont see me. ;)

Been trying to tell myself to stay quiet and dont talk so much, but that's just not my nature when i'm with close friends. As conversations go on, i tend to blabber stuff instinctively (is that a correct word?) and regret them later on.

People, please remember that sometimes, what u 'perceive'(yea...perception!) of my words and actions might not be what i mean (SCC folks, take note). To put it in a way, i'm immature in my communication (yea yea...im immature in everything.. i know). Don't blame me, i'm just a kid in a grown up's world.

p/s : all this doesnt apply to when i'm ejek-ing people. if there's one part of communication i'm good at, it's that. heh. but for the rest of it, yea dont misunderstand me.

2nd p/s : i have a very NARROW vocabulary. can't seem to explain stuff properly while blogging.

the week....

Whew! Finally it's the weekend...the past few days have been oh so stressful and tiring...practically had an average of 4 hours sleep per day.

Lemme see... I couldnt remember much about monday. Oh ya, we were told that the NF-AF debate was on the next day..i was like "walao...seow ah". I didnt really had the intention of debating before that, but then since the topic was my research essay topic, i guess i'd require less effort than others. Not to mention szu mei saying "if Amos speaks, i'll speak"..lol. Well she didnt speak after all, but she did a great deal of help la. We sorta like discussed the topic for less than 1 hour after class..then went for leo meeting. At night we gathered to do econs assignment..though i ended up playing games and the little work that we did we useless after all.

Tuesday - Debate
Slept real late on monday, went to 8am class to hand in my assessment, and asked ms mariani to let me go at 9am to "prepare for debate". But i slept till 10. 10am, we made preparations for debate, till 1pm, without eating lunch. Then the debate was on, crapped whatever info i learned from my research paper, and we were the defending champions! Well, Zeinab was good. At least i get to leave AF with some pride...heh. Kinda forgot what i did that night.

Wednesday - Japanese!
Wednesday. What was wednesday like? Forgot. Dun care la. Oh i remembered...japanese! Went 8-10 class, then at about almost 11...the 69 high skool students from hokkaido came. Then we sorta 'paraded' to the lecture hall..on the way i asked this japanese guy, 'wats ur name?' And he....smiled. =.= oh well. At the lecture hall, i was kinda sesated from the gang as i was sitting right at the front with kiosuka (or kisouke?) All 69 of them sang their skool song which was rather long..then it was musha and uniqueX's performance, then they thought us the Bon Odori dance, which we didnt really learn anyway. Oh ya before the dance we split into group...i just followed kiosuka and asked burger n chris to follow me. To my luck, in the group was leng lui Miki....heh. So we get to know all 4 of them after that..kiosuka, minoru, nane(or nare), and miki..and took them round the college for a tour. We had serious communication problem but they were extremely friendly..dunno how to put to words. And so we took them here and there, treating them to food and games (college's money anyway). At about 2 sumthin...they left, but not without taking pictures...heh. Miss their friendly faces...aih.

Thursday Blues
Thursday! After the good day wif the japanese..came the worst day of the week. I got really low marks for my freakin research paper. Well, i kinda expected that anyway since lazy me didnt pass up the outline and didnt ask for her approval of the topic. Even so, it was sad. I face a high possibility of not getting an A for english this semester, and I hate that. We're just foundation students, can mariani not be that strict?! Some other minor bad things happened that day (yesterday, actually) and i couldnt recall. Then came the night, I have to finish 2 assignments which i barely started doing. Stayed awake till 6 sumthin in the morning..wanted to take a short nap but slept till 10am this morning.

Today...woke up at 10...rushed some part of the conclusion for my econs assignment. At 11...headed to IT class to pass up assignment. She was having break, so i skipped the class..haha. Reached my room, finished the conclusion and formatted the whole assignment till around 12.30. Then rushed to print and bind and hand it in. After that, followed the gang to lepak. The 1st 2 hours of the day was like so in a rush..i was still kinda blur. I was kinda disappointed with my assignments though..felt that they weren't properly and confidently done. Seriously, my laziness destroyed my 2nd semester results.
Ok, so we went lepak-ing. Went to KL sentral for shanna to buy air tickets, turned out it was wasted. Ate a very filling lunch then headed to mid valley. Jalan-jalan a while, then watched Deathnote. It was quite nice since they altered the comic story. Reached nilai at 11 sumthin, ate dinner at eastern tea corner. Reached room, bathed, now blogging...

That's pretty much the week for me. This week's rating: 1/10. Next week, another hectic week of assignments, mid terms, and oral presentation. God bless me.
