Lyrics - 'Barney's Theme Song'

Barney is a dinosaur from our imagination
And when he's tall
he's what we call a dinosaur sensation
Barney's friends are big and small
they come from lots of places
after school they meet to play
and sing with happy faces
Barney shows us lots of things
Like how to play pretend
ABC's, and 123's
And how to be a friend
Barney comes to play with us
Whenever we may need him
Barney can be your friend too
If you just make-believe him!

Just wanted to be kiddy for a moment. :))

I want to go back on the ice again. I want to let my legs move care-freely on ice. Spin a camel-sit, a sit, a lay-back, a back spin, and a camel.
Master a flying-camel.
Master an axel.
Jump a flip, a loop, a lutz, a salchow, a waltz jump, a toe-loop and a combination jump.
Learn a double-salchow, a double loop and a double toe-loop.
Footwork.
Competition.

When is the next Nationals will I compete in?
When will I get to freestyle 7 or 8?

DAMN! I MISS SKATING! AAAHHH!!

I don't have the means to continue to skate. That's the problem.
DAMN IT!
Latest News: Zhang Mo's given birth and she's back in China this time round.
AAAHH! I'm breaking down.
I miss the ice. I miss skating. I miss everything.
I want to learn and go far. That's my dream.

[I've wasted 1/4 of my life skating but not improving and making it far to where I'm supposed to be right now.] DAMN IT!!!

I still have my skating boots with me.
I just want to go back on the ice and master whatever I'm supposed to years ago.

Bryan Adams - 'Now and Forever'
Whenever I'm weary
From the battles that rage in my head
You make sense of madness
When my sanity hangs by a thread
I lose my way but still you seem to understand
Now and forever I will be your man

Sometimes I just hold you
Too caught up in me to see
I'm holding a fortune
That heaven has given to me
I'll try to show you each and every way I can
Now and forever I will be your man

Now I can rest my worries and always be sure
That I won't be alone anymore
And if only I'd known you were there all the time
All this time

Until the day the ocean doesn't touch the sand
Now and forever I will be your man

Now and forever I will be your man

---------------------------------------------------
I finally got my new pair of spectacles. :)))

I got to be in school at 8.30am tomorrow. Gosh.. I got to sleep early tonight.
Ah well...

Oh I bought 3 new tops from Fila yesterday. It costs me $10 each. And I bought a pair of shorts from Mango which costs me $55. Including my new specs as well.
Gosh! That's why I said I spent a lot. Haha. :/

Got to go. :))

Carpenters - 'Close To You'
Why do birds suddenly appear
Every time you are near?
Just like me, they long to be
Close to you.

Why do stars fall down from the sky
Every time you walk by?
Just like me, they long to be
Close to you.

On the day that you were born
The angels got together
And decided to create a dream come true
So they sprinkled moon dust in your hair of gold
And starlight in your eyes of blue.

That is why all the girls in town
Follow you all around.
Just like me, they long to be
Close to you.

On the day that you were born
The angels got together
And decided to create a dream come true
So they sprinkled moon dust in your hair of gold
And starlight in your eyes of blue.

That is why all the girls in town
Follow you all around.
Just like me, they long to be
Close to you.
Just like me (Just like me)
They long to be
Close to you.

Wahhhhhhhhhhh, close to you.
Wahhhhhhhhhhh, close to you.
Hahhhhhhhhhhh, close to you.
Lahhhhhhhhhhh, close to you.

Boyzone - 'Everyday I Love You'
I don't know...but I believe...
That some things are meant to be.
And that you'll make a better me.
Everyday..."I Love You"

I never thought that dreams came true.
But you showed me that they do.
You know that I learn somethng new.
Everyday..."I Love You"

'Cause I believe...that destiny...
Is out of our control...
(Don't you know that I do.)
And you'll never live until you love...
With all your heart and soul.

It's a touch when I feel bad.
It's a smile when I get mad.
All the little things I am
Everyday..."I Love You"

Everyday..."I Love You more"
Everyday..."I Love You"

'Cause I believe...that destiny...
Is out of our control...
(Don't you know that I do.)
And you'll never live until you love...
With all your heart and soul.

If I asked..."Would you say yes?"
Together we're the very best.
I know that I am truly blessed.
Everyday..."I Love You!"

And I'll give you my best.
Everyday..."I Love You!"

Two nice songs I heard today. :))

I went out with Vinna the whole day yesterday. We shopped a lot and I finally got a new pair of spectacles for myself. Later in the afternoon, I'm going down to school to configure my laptop and down to lucky plaza in the evening to collect my specs.

Whoohoo.. Orientation is this Wednesday until Friday. School starts next Monday.
How time flies. Oh man!

I bought a few nice tops for school. I spent quite a lot. Gosh! Ah well..

Turning off the lights soon. :D

"lost it"

Yoohoo! 'Parish Easter Dinner & Dance' was POWER man. The hosts, Bernard and Jerry can sing fabulously well. Like OMGosh! And Bernard is one hell of an entertainer. Not to describe further, I'll just comment with 7 words: "The evening was FUN! I enjoyed myself."

----------------------------------------------------------------------------
I am like the zillion bullets in your heart.
'Internally unrecovered' are the words you'll never start.
You'd never changed, it's just what you are,
just like a ready made, baked cheesed ham.
You said I'll never leave,
but I made you heave a sigh of relief.
Tears of water running down so long,
just as the song goes on and on.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Didn't mean to.
Never intend to.
It's just what I should do.
It'll never stop if I don't.
But you're forever with me.

:)))

"Happy Happy Day"

YAY! Sis finally gets to stay. Followed sis all the way to TP just to sit in for her meeting just now. Thank God I brought my laptop or else I'll definitely be damn bored sitting there, having nothing to do. We were supposed to head down to Borders after her meeting ends. Apparently her meeting ended late and we didn't go. Instead, we plan to go tomorrow morning. And I'm going to follow her to TP again in the afternoon for her meeting. After her meeting, we have to head down to church in the evening for Psalm 91 practice. Ah well.. Busy day tomorrow. :))

Right now, sis and me are in Vinna's room. The 3 of us. Fun! Sis is doing her camp admin stuff and she's not going to sleep at all tonight. Crazy girl. Hahaha. And she's stressing up and getting angry with the camp stuff. Lots of problems. Poor sis.

On a final note, I would like to tell everyone again, please watch 'Freedom Writers'! :D

Freedom Writers

The Freedom Writers Diary is the amazing true story of strength, courage, and achievement in the face of adversity. In the fall of 1994, in Room 203 at Woodrow Wilson High School in Long Beach, California, an idealistic teacher named Erin Gruwell faced her first group of students, dubbed by the administration as "unteachable, at-risk" teenagers. The class was a diverse mix of African-American, Latino, Cambodian, Vietnamese, and Caucasian students, many of whom had grown up in rough neighborhoods in Long Beach. In the first few weeks of class, the students made it clear that they were not interested in what their teacher had to say, and made bets about how long she would last in their classroom.

Then a pivotal moment changed their lives forever. When a racial caricature of one of the African-American students circulated the classroom, Erin Gruwell angrily intercepted the drawing and compared it to the Nazi caricatures of Jews during the Holocaust. To her amazement, the students responded with puzzled looks. Erin Gruwell was appalled to discover that many of her students had never heard of the Holocaust. When she asked how many in her class had been shot at, however, almost all of them raised their hands, and began lifting their shirts to show their scars. This initiated a battle-scar show-and-tell that left Erin Gruwell shocked and inspired to take advantage of the powerful energy she had sparked.

By fostering an educational philosophy that valued and promoted diversity, she transformed her students' lives. She encouraged them to rethink rigid beliefs about themselves and others, to reconsider daily decisions, and to rechart their futures. With Erin's steadfast support, her students shattered stereotypes to become critical thinkers, aspiring college students, and citizens for change. They even dubbed themselves the "Freedom Writers" - in homage to the Civil Rights activists the "Freedom Riders" - and published a book.

From the moment they named themselves the "Freedom Writers," the students of Room 203 changed from a group of apathetic, frustrated students to a closely knit, motivated family. The Freedom Writers have continued their mission to teach tolerance and share their story of success.

Erin Gruwell and the Freedom Writers started a foundation to positively impact communities by decreasing high school drop out rates through the replication and enhancement of the Freedom Writers Method. The Freedom Writers Foundation uses innovative teaching methods to train teachers, in addition to providing scholarships for deserving students. Using the Freedom Writers Method, the Foundation actively addresses the problem with proven results in communities across the country.

This movie is being highly recommended by me. The movie which is filmed based on true life stories just sends a message across to teenagers and anybody of this era. The message that tells us how we should have 'strength' and 'courage' regardless of how tough life is for us. And that carrying 'Hope' and 'Faith' with us all the time, is the main message sent across to everyone.
Thus, "Freedom Writers" is strongly encouraged to watch.

I'm not sure of who I am
I was once solid, and now you're the bullet in my brain
The bullet that reminds me not to ask you to come to my productions.

Just leave me alone. I don't want a 'WE' to care because it feels like pitying. I don't want any pity/care. Just URGH!!! stay away from caring/pitying as it makes me feel WORST! GAWD.. Don't hesitate, just GO ahead. Hesitating just makes things worst for me not you guys. Don't do this to me!
Just leave me alone, stay away and GO AHEAD! Just don't care about me and go ahead, our sistership will be just fine that way. Man.. I HATE THIS SHIT! It's ripping my soul apart to feel as if it is pitying (caring in actual fact rather).

I'm not giving in or whatsoever. It's just about being happy. I'm not going to be happy, so just go ahead and everything is just right. Right at what's to be done and where everything is in place.
Just DON'T freaking CARE about me for crying out loud. I know you all care about how I feel whatsoever, but care 1% is good enough. Save that 99% and leave me alone. I'd rather None! And I'll definitely be just FINE!

When you say 'you two' CARE; inside me, it is like squeezing all the juice from a sugar cane until there isn't any juice left but yet still continue squeezing. Pain. And it is TORTURING to hear that 'YOU TWO' CARE! NO!! Just don't mention anything about 'YOU TWO' CARE! By doing that, it makes no difference from me; having an abrasion and you putting medicine onto the wound, making me go through the torturing pain, to the extent that I just want to rip my body apart or jump down from a building.
So just leave alone and be happy.

Just leave me alone and I'll be just fine. Everything will just be as per normal.
Thank you very much! :)

This is the internal struggle we've had. And how we wished, and always will wish, there was an alternative way to work around the problems we faced.

By Claire - 'Angel's Wings'
Angel's Wings are beautiful things,
like so many butterflies.
I want to fly free.

Angel's feet so soft and sweet,
Like the clouds they walk on.
I want to walk free.

Angel's hands are the golden bands,
which keeps the loved ones united.
I want to be free.

Take me back,
to where I belong.
Take me back to where I came from.
I want to be free.

Take my hand,
And walk with me.
Please help me,
I want to be free.
I want to go back to heaven.

Lost in the beauty of tranquility, just to feel the peace within. Water falls and it will never end; listening to it is the best of all. Richness of that taste you can hardly get; send it off as quickly as you can.

Do you understand well enough? Transparent or translucent? None but opaque. Is this transient?
Sometimes I wonder. :))
