Crush by Mandy Moore You know everything that I'm afraid of You do everything I wish I did Everybody wants you, everybody loves you
I know I should tell you how I feel I wish everyone would disappear Everytime you call me, I'm too scared to be me And I'm too shy to say
Ooh, I got a crush on you I hope you feel the way that I do I get a rush When I'm with you Ooh, I've got a crush on you A crush on you
You know, I'm the one that you can talk to Sometimes you tell me things that I don't want to know I just want to hold you You say exactly how you feel about her I wonder, could you ever think of me that way
I got a crush on you I hope you feel the way that I do I get a rush When I'm with you Ooh, I've got a crush on you A crush on you
Ooh, I wish I could tell somebody But there's no one to talk to, nobody knows I've got a crush on you A crush on you, I got a crush
You say everything that no one says But I feel everything that you're afraid to feel I will always want you, I will always love you
I've got a crush on you I hope you feel the way that I do I get a rush when I'm with you I got a crush on you, a crush on you [Repeat]

I've just came back from tuition and suddenly have a strong urge to blog, so here i am, blogging oh-so-diligently. haha. The more i look at the new fabulous blogskin, the more i love it. hehes. The songs playing in the background match the blogskin too well, "Why Can't I" by Liz Phair, then "Beautiful Soul" by Jesse McCartney. I want you and your beautiful soul....Why can't I breathe whenever I think about you.. hahas. i'm addicted to these two songs.
Tuition today was quite okay. I'm beginning to start liking every moment of it in case i'll regret not enjoying the tuition i had during my secondary days. The exams are just about two weeks away, then the two weeks school for secondary threes, then my beloved holidays and then secondary four. time really do pass by very fast. i never thought i will be fifteen years old so soon and nearing secondary four. It just seemed so far away when u're still young. haha. I think i've changed quite a lot this year. My viewpoint, my outlook on life and everything. i was really flattered when XinYi said i had become more mature. hahas. i even shifted the direction of the cupid's arrow to someone else. I also love reading romance books nowadays. When i was in secondary one i hate those romance books as i find them too girly, I'm now becoming the person i would have hated in the past, but things really do change. romance books are not as bad as i thought. " Just Like Heaven" is funny and nice. I turned to the back of the book and saw this website. It's a website advertising books. hahas, i saw some books that sound interesting, perhaps i will borrow them from the library someday. Intimate relatiosn With Strangers by David Valentine Bernard
If September 11, 2001, changed everything for America, then Intimate Relations with Strangers explores the long-term consequences of that change.
Set in a future where the threat of terrorism has seeped into everything, an American soldier finds himself at the vanguard of America's latest war. After a terrorist attack on the White House, America invades an African country in the Sahara. In the desert, the soldier begins to realize that memory itself can be used as a form of terrorism. There is love within him, but it is love for a woman he is not entirely sure is real. She had appeared miraculously when he was a boy growing up in the suburbs of Long Island, telling him things that turned his world upside-down. She had disappeared just as miraculously, leaving him to question his recollections and his sanity.
Years later, as a soldier in the war, he finds himself yearning for the woman and the impossible paradise she had described. In the Sahara, he sees horrors that seem to be the work of demons. After a year of war, his mind and soul are on the verge of collapse; by the time he sees the woman from his childhood marching through the desert, he has no choice but to surrender to his fantasies. In a world devastated by war and terrorism, only she gives him hope. When she again disappears, he is ready to move heaven and earth to find her. However, it is a quest that seems to have consequences for both his soul and America's.
Intimate Relations with Strangers is at once a twisted puzzle and a brutally honest exploration of the nature of reality, war, and love.
Daddy's Girls For the four glamorous daughters of Lord Oswald Balcon, money can buy anything. From Fendi handbags to Ivy League educations, they live in a world of designer labels and unrestricted opulence -- their father's money and aristocratic status, coupled with their dazzling good looks, bought them every opportunity and advantage. They are beautiful, blond, and barely thirty, and the world is their luxury playground.
Venetia, the sophisticated interior designer, has booming professional success but is desperate for a child and an escape from a loveless marriage. Camilla, the rising political star, is too brilliant and ambitious for any of her unworthy lovers to handle. Sweet yet savvy Cate is living out her ultimate dream, launching her own magazine, with an all-too-handsome business partner. The baby of the family, Serena, is one of the country's most beautiful actresses, on the cusp of international stardom, but her party-girl lifestyle is bringing about more scandal than success.
The girls are the darlings of the London paparazzi, but when Lord Balcon turns up dead, the shadow of suspicion falls on his four daughters. A jealous tyrant, Daddy has tried to bring his daughters down all their lives. These four women -- at the top of their careers in show business, publishing, interior design, and politics -- must face an awful accusation, and each other, as they try to discover the truth that lies beneath the glossy surface of their lives. The facade of the Balcon family hides a web of deceit and betrayal, in which a thirty-year-old secret lurks, threatening to destroy them all.
From the sun-drenched beaches of the Caribbean to Manhattan's elite society circuit, from the exclusive fashion houses of Milan to the star-studded streets of Cannes, the Balcon sisters play out their lives in a whirl of glitz and the ultra chic. But as tragedy and danger stalk every one of them, the scene is set for a stunning climax.
immediate family
Fifteen years after their Princeton graduation, Jay, Franny, Emerson, and Stevie meet at a college reunion. Life has taken each of them in different directions -- Jay is a married man with a baby on the way, while Franny yearns for a child. Divorced single mom Emerson is drawn to a man who challenges her assumptions about finding a once-in-a-lifetime love. And Stevie has recently been rocked by a shocking revelation -- the answer to a long-kept family secret.
Now the bond between them takes a surprising twist, one that changes how each feels about family and friendship. One thing is certain: They will all find their heart's desires in the last place they imagine -- as they discover that family is less about blood ties than the warm embrace of ones who accept them as they are.

Hi folks, i'm sorry i haven't been blogging diligently lately. exams are around two weeks away and i haven't even started revision yet. Normally, i would have been on the verge of breaking down. However, i am procrastinating like hell. I also have no idea why i have been so slack-ish this term and i have no reason why. I guess i am getting too complacent or maybe i just don't care about studies anymore.
As a treat for myself for enduring the week, i decided to change my blogskin and this is it. wave goodbye to the rainbow skin and embrace the new one: the look in your eyes. This skin may seem emo to some but to me, i think its simple yet classy, and rather romantic. I've been crazy about romantic stuff lately. Everything from the book i read to the blogskin, i search for romantic stuff. No, i'm not desperate, its just a change of taste. ok, it's getting a bit late now, so i think i should go off already. i know it is a very short post but i'm tired and i want to read a bit of "Just Like Heaven" before i drift off to my dreamland. nitey nites, fellow earthlings (:

Life's been a bit tough lately. haha. But i am tryin to bite my tongue and hold on, no matter whatever happens, i shall still stay cheerful. (: I will learn to stay strong and not cry due to small things. Big girls will never cry. I'm a big girl now, so i wont cry for small things. hahas, here's some songs to motivate myself to carry on and to stop the thinking of giving up on it.
"Bring It All Back" by S Club 7
Bring it all back now
Don't stop, never give up Hold your head high and reach the top Let the world see what you have got Bring it all back to you
Hold on to what you try to be Your individuality When the world is on your shoulders Just smile and let it go If people try to put you down Just walk on by don't turn around You only have to answer to yourself
Don't you know it's true what they say That life, it ain't easy But your time's coming around So don't you stop tryin'
Don't stop, never give up Hold your head high and reach the top Let the world see what you have got Bring it all back to you Dream of falling in love Anything you've been thinking of When the world seems to get too tough Bring it all back to you
Na na na na..
Try not to worry 'bout a thing Enjoy the good times life can bring Keep it all inside you Gotta let the feeling show Imagination is the key 'Cos you are you're own destiny You never should be lonely When time is on your side
Don't you know it's true what they say Things are sent to try you But your time's coming around So don't you stop tryin'
Don't stop, never give up Hold your head high and reach the top Let the world see what you have got Bring it all back to you Dream of falling in love Anything you've been thinking of When the world seems to get too tough Bring it all back to you
Na na na na..
Don't you know it's true what they say Things happen for a reason But your time's coming around So don't you stop tryin'
Don't stop, never give up Hold your head high and reach the top Let the world see what you have got Bring it all back to you Dream of falling in love Anything you've been thinking of When the world seems to get too tough Bring it all back to you
"Who Knows" by Avril Lavigne Yeah Yeah Yeah-ya Yeah-ya Why do you look so familiar I could swear that I Have seen your face before I think I like that you seem sincere I think I'd like to get To know you a little bit more
I think there's something more Life's worth living for
Who knows what could happen Do what you do Just keep on laughing One thing's true There's always a brand new day I'm gonna live today like it's my last day
Yeah Yeah Yeah-ya Yeah-ya How do you always have an opinion And how do you always find The best way to compromise We don't need to have a reason We don't need anything We're just wasting time
I think there's something more Life's worth living for
Who knows what could happen Do what you do Just keep on laughing One thing's true There's always a brand new day
Who knows what could happen Do what you do Just keep on laughing One thing's true There's always a brand new day I'm gonna live today like it's my last day
Find yourself 'Cause I can't find you Be yourself Who are you? Find yourself 'Cause I can't find you Be yourself Who are you?
Who knows what could happen Do what you do Just keep on laughing One thing's true There's always a brand new day
So you go and make it happen Do your best Just keep on laughing I'm telling you There's always a brand new day
Who knows what could happen Do what you do Just keep on laughing One thing's true There's always a brand new day I'm gonna live today like it's my last day
Although these songs are a bit old, but it contains lots of meaning for me, especially when life's been pretty tough for me. When the going gets tough, the tough gets going. haha. I feel so much better typing all these out. I swear I 'm not going to be complacent anymore and buck up on my favourite subject!(: smiles
