W e l c o m e - T o - M y - W o r l d - O f - M u s i c !
FIRST OF ALL, I'd like to apologise if it's too explicit (especially the first few videos!).
Anyway, enjoy the videos.
(Enrique Iglesias' - "Tired Of Being Sorry". There was once I kind of got addicted to it.)
(Enrique Iglesias' - "Push". I love this song. It has been months stuck in my head. He looks charming in the video with his hair styling that way. Makes me drool? Hmm? Maybe. HAHA.
The video camera that's in the video, I believe it's Sony - The latest one using the memory stick. Mine's the one using the 8cm DVD-RW.)
(Enrique Iglesias' - "Hero". Was one of my favourite. Jennifer Love Hewitt is in the video. In my opinion, the ending part is sad.)
(Bon Jovi's - "It's My Life". MY FAVOURITE BAND, MY FAVOURITE SONG (All-time)! Not forgetting - JON BON JOVI!!)
(Ronan Keating's - "Life Is A Rollercoaster". MY FAVOURITE SINGER, MY FAVOURITE SONG (All-time)! Sorry it's a bit poor quality.)
(Ronan Keating's - "When You Say Nothing At All")
(Boyzone's version of "Words")
(Bee Gees - "Words" live. My father is a Bee Gees fan. Always listening to their songs. Well? He's in to those 70's, early 80's - Boney M, Bee Gees, ABBA, Kitaro...)
(Boney M - "Ma Baker". Seems to be my father's favourite song because he always play this song.)
(Bee Gees - "Tragedy". My dad likes Bee Gees. I like this song. Welcome to the disco era! HAHA.)
(Michael Buble - "Feeling Good". My favourite song.)
(Maksim Mrvica - "Exodus". One of my favourite by him.)
(Maksim Mrvica - "Nostradamus". My favourite song by him.)
(I love this one. Maksim Mrvica - "Croatian Rhapsody".)
(Subsonica - "L'Ultima risposta". Italian band - My favourite! Interesting video.)
(Subsonica - "Vita d'Altri")
(Subsonica - "Angeles". This is in English.)
(Bloom 06 (Formerly: Eiffel 65) - "Per Sempre")
(Bloom 06 - "In The City")
(I think you'll know this song. Was a hit during 1999 - 2000. Eiffel 65 - "Blue (Da Ba Dee)" The singer look different. Just compare him in this video and the two above.)
(Tiesto featuring BT - "Love Comes Again". I like the way Tiesto smile.)
(The Corrs - "Irresistable". Love this band! One of my favourite songs.)
(Darren Hayes - "Insatiable")
(Darren Hayes - "Strange Relationship". I like this song.)

Had a shoot yesterday. My friend Faiz side "project". If you want to put it that way. Anyway, those three pictures above was with makeup on.
The first two was taken yesterday and the third one was taken in 2006.
Rafiqah helped me with the makeup. I feel she did a great job.
In 2006, I had this Seiseido session in school. It was a post-examination activity. I kind of enjoyed it but I'm not someone who likes to put on makeup often as I find it a hassle. (Yes, I like it simple and easy.)
Anyway, the Seishido session - They explain to us more about makeup and taught us the techniques and all. Hmm? They would pick a suitable eye shadow colour and lipstick colour for us and then we had to apply it ourselves.
The colours the beauty advisor chose were - Blue for the eyeshadow and for lipstick is a little orangy. I actually kind of like the colour but looking at the picture, it seems like it's green.
Oh well... Anyway, makeup does enchance your features. However, I would want to have a good clear skin first before I can consider all these.
Grrrr... My right eye is still swollen! (That's the reason why I sort of cover my right eye with my fringe - SEE ABOVE!)
Oh well... Went to the library earlier on. Borrowed one book and three magazines. I have always wanted to have a nice tone bod. Thought of working out to tone it. Hmm? I have been thinking about it for a year or so and till today, I am still thinking about it.
Got to take some action. Well? I guess I have to start soon.
Looking at those people with nice tone bod, my my my... It makes me drool. *Oops* *grins*
Grr... Speaking of drool - "Push, push back upon it... Make me believe you want it", Enrique Iglesias look really hot in the video - "Push" (His 3rd single of his recent album). I love the way he look in that video. He was simply hot! Love his hair. (Wishing I could use my hand to comb [or rather play with] his hair) *Oops*
Hmm? However, the video is kind of "overly-too-sexy". Very juicy one I would say but I love that song. It has been in my head for like months! Well? Ignore the lyrics, I just love the song.
Alright, I've to go now. I want to watch television.
Will update when I have the time! *grins*
Peace out~

NEW SKIN UP!
Finally it's up and for all the delays... My my my. Hmm? What's your take on it? I feel it's a simple skin. Nothing to WOW about but I like simple designs.
Anyway, do give me comments about it and tell me how you feel about it.
It's 4AM. I finally took my opportunity to upload these. I've been quite busy lately and now that I have some time by my side, I can afford to do such things as this.
Hmm... SUPER SUNDAY - The battle against the TOP FOUR TEAMS in the Barclays Premier League.
+ Manchester United versus Liverpool
+ CHELSEA versus Arsenal
I did not watch the Manchester United match against Liverpool but I did get to watch the last 10 minutes or so of that game as my mother was watching television before that.
Meaning to say... I did catch the highlight from that game. 3 - 0. Wes(ley) Brown, Cristiano Ronaldo (I still don't fancy him but he has a nice bod *Oops*) and... Nani (Luis Carlos - Errr? Can't remember his full name).
What a rare goal from WES BROWN.
Hmm? Javier Mascherano got sent off. Second bookable offence (2 yellows). So it's... 11 men (Manchester United) against 10 men (Liverpool). Well? I don't really know what happened actually that made the referee sent Javier Mascherano off. Hmm?
Anyway... SECOND - MATCH OF THE DAY! This match, I'd definitely watch. My beloved CHELSEA against Arsenal.
To be frank, I'm actually very nervous and I fear that Arsenal would be the team that would end Chelsea's home record of 77 matches unbeaten at home. The last team to beat Chelsea at home (Stamford Bridge) was Arsenal - February 2004.
It's been four years and we're now 78 matches unbeaten in the league after coming from behind to beat Arsenal.
I was disappointed when Arsenal defender, Bacary Sagna scored. I was S.S.S! (Shocked, stunned, surprised)
However, moments later... Didier Drogba equalised. I was kind of relieved. I was actually beginning to wonder if Chelsea is going to score again or would it be Arsenal or would the game end as a draw?
When I was thinking of that, the first thing that came to my mind was - Manchester United. I'm sure they would be happy if the game ends draw. They would be grinning and rubbing their hands together with that evil look on their face. *Oops!* *grins*
No offence but I think they would be pleased if it ended as a draw. HOWEVER, EIGHT MINUTES LATER... Didier Drogba scored again!
I couldn't believe it actually. I didn't know it was going in. I thought it was wide. Thinking that maybe my eyes were playing tricks with me. When I take a look again and when I see the reaction of the players, only then I realised it's a goal.
With a second look to it, only then I can confirm it's a goal and I was like... Surprised but I was really excited. I was like smiling and "YES!! YES!! Woohoo! YES!!"
Yeah, yeah... I mean if you're happy I'm sure you would do such things but I didn't shout so loud as my mother was sleeping and the only ones awake was me and my dad.
Pretty sure my dad heard that. Well, well well... I just don't know how to describe it actually. When the referee (Mark Clattenburg) blew the final whistle, I was really happy. Hmm? For once, Avram Grant made a right decision. Ok, credit to him for this once.
He bring on Nicolas Anelka and Juliano Belletti to replace Claude Makelele and Michael Ballack. Hmm? It proved to be a right one as Belletti and Anelka was involved in the build-up to assist Drogba for his second goal.
I kind of fancy Juliano Belletti. I like his crosses. Not only that, he has pace. The difference between Paulo Ferreira and him is that, Ferreira seems to be the more defensive one whereas his more offensive.
Well, enough football for now.
Moving on now... It's school holidays now. School holidays has just started. Hmm? How am I going to spend my holidays? I think I'll just relax and de-stress myself and let's see what's in store for me.
Well? Saturday - I went out with my family. Where did I go? Suntec City (again). Yes, I mostly go there. Hmm? Went shopping and I spent... $86 [White dress; Verge], $26.90 [Tee; Ex-Gal] & $24.90 [Shoes; Tinkertoes (Marina Square)] - Total damage: $137.80
However, I did get to save some money as they were having promotions for the dress and for the shoes. As for the tee, I have the membership card which entitles 10% discount.
That white dress may look simple but looking at the price tag, I think you'll go "WHAT?!"
Uh huh. Take a look at it.
Oh well, I'm feeling hungry yet at the same time sleepy.
Grrr... Alright,I'm off now.
Peace out~

"Years gone by and we grow older as each year passes. People change, things change... Just as I was wondering if I would ever see you again?
There, you appeared right in front of me just like a dream. Without a word, without a smile... Looking at each other, looking surprised. Don't know what to do, leaving just like that. I wished I said "Hi" to you but I did not."
Have you ever kind of miss someone that you know? Someone that you have been thinking lately and as you forgot about it, he/she appears right in front of you.
I was surprised (or rather - "we" were surprised, assuming he was as he seemed to be surprised by the look on his face). I couldn't believe my eyes. We just kept looking at each other without saying a word.
I just didn't know how to react. It happened really fast and I just couldn't bring my senses together at that moment. I wasn't prepared. It simply came to me just like that - "Bam!" Straight at you, leaving you lost for words and surprised.
I know that I sometimes treated him kind of cold in a way. I remember that I didn't want to mention his name. I remember that I kept denying the fact. I remember we exchanged pens as we used to sit beside each other in class and happened that both of us had the same pen. I remember he somehow makes me smile when I was angry.
Those were days, those were the times. I don't know if he remembers it but I do. Well? That was in the past but I will remember as it's a memory that I want to remember. It puts a smile to my face whenever I look back at such memorable events.
I don't know why I reacted that way back then. At times I sort of give him a cold shoulder and there was once I sort of disliked him in a way and I don't like mentioning his name. I really don't know why I feel that way back then. It was kind of weird I guess but also, there's a reason to it.
Hmm... But I guess you'll have to guess about that reason. HAHA. *grins* Well... What do you think?
Anyway, should I see him again in the near future... Maybe I should talk to him. However, I have to remain calm and cool.
I'm the shy type. Sometimes in certain situations I react awkwardly or rather weirdly if you want to put it that way. Hmm? Maybe some might be debating about it now (About me being a shy type). Yeah, yeah... I know some would be like - "You? SHY? No way!"
I will say this again. I AM, I AM - I AM! I don't seem to be one? Well, I am. Sometimes when I'm too shy, I'll just keep quiet and smile and well... ...... You go and figure that out.
For years I've been trying to overcome that. I don't like that. In fact, I don't like a few things about myself. Well? I won't say that I hate myself. No, I didn't mean that way.
I am no (emo)tional freak. I am a normal human being. I don't like those "EMO" kind of people. Sorry, no offence to anyone.
However, I can be an emotional person. Taking things seriously and I do get angry easily at times but hey, I'm trying to improve as a person. I always feel we can always improve as a person. There's no such thing as I cannot change. Give it a shot at least.
Hmm... It's 4AM now and yeah, I am still awake but am feeling sleepy now. HOWEVER, I just feel like spilling it out as I have a lot of thoughts in my mind. I just simply feel that I must get it out and so... That is why I am blogging!
A new blog skin will be up soon. I just haven't finish the last part of it. I've been kind of busy lately and I am quite occupied. When I'm free, I usually use that time to de-stress myself.
Recently, I had to design (enchance) the Earth Day poster. Sounds easy but it's not as easy as you think!
It takes time and effort. Not forgetting, having a concept and idea to design it, of course!
Hmm? Let me see whatelse... Oh yeah, gotten my Networking Fundamentals results back and should I be happy or what?
Knowing quite a number of people getting 40's, should I be at least be pleased with my marks? Well, I am not pleased. I did not fail nor did I score very high.
I just feel that... Could have done even better. Am I disappointed? Well,ok... I can't say that I guess? I really don't know if that would be a yes or a no. However, I just feel that I could have done better.
It wasn't really very tough. I would say it's moderate. If you read up, you'll be able to pass but if you read and you forget, "Nooooooo!~"
That was how I felt when I was doing some of the questions in the paper. I studied for the test in the eleventh hour and there were some I did not study, was simply just looking through only.
Well, it's over now and I guess I should be anticipating the next one - I want to do even better!
Moving on now and I am feeling less bloated now. Dad called for (McDonalds) delivery just now at midnight. He ordered the $36 bundle. Total: $36 + $3 surcharge = $39.
Anyway, SUPER SUNDAY this weekend. I don't know if I will have the heart to watch the Chelsea match against Arsenal. Even though Chelsea is unbeaten for four years in the league, I fear something might happened.
I am disappointed with my favourite team. I don't fancy Avram Grant as Chelsea manager. I miss Jose Mourinho very much. It was a shock when Jose Mourinho departs. In a way, I was feeling bitter and it somehow broke my heart.
Avram Grant is much quieter than Jose Mourinho. Jose Mourinho is very outspoken and always making headlines in the papers, in the media and all but he's good at getting his tactics right.
Not only that, he is very entertaining and fun to watch. I like the way he celebrates when Chelsea scores. It makes me laugh and I feel confident when he's Chelsea manager.
Hmm? I find Jose Mourinho a charming man. (Well? I know he is old [for me] (45 years old - I'm only about 18) - Could be my dad except that my dad is older than him),some might disagree with me but I find Jose Mourinho, a charming man. He has charisma, he is also an outspoken person. Some might say - arrogant but I don't think that way of him.
As for Grant... Avram Grant? I have lost confidence in him. Actually, I never really have so much confident in him. I was neutral about it since he took over as Chelsea manager but have always been wishing he would not be the permament manager.
Now I have to admit that I have no confidence in him. He makes me worried every now and then with the players he choose and the tactics he uses. It is very obvious that Joe Cole is an important player to Chelsea but he simply loves rotating. If he gets it right, he's pardon but... HE USUALLY GETS IT WRONG!
People talk about entertaining football and all, you know what makes me happy? Getting the results.
You don't have to play beautiful, marvellous, fabulous style of play football.
Hmm... Maybe I shouldn't say that. Given a choice to play beautiful football and not getting the results, and playing decent football that gets you the result... I would pick - Playing decent football that will get you the result.
To me, result is all that matters even if you have to play "not beautiful but decent" style of football. It's not easy to always be playing beautiful football but if you could then be it (meaning to say, getting results!).
I'm not saying play boring football though people often criticise Chelsea for being one.
I don't feel that way about Chelsea. Hmm? Maybe there are times they are super defensive but hey, they are still getting results. There are times when they do play good football too. You know, football is always full of surprises, just like life.
(Are some of you complaing already about me talking about football (again)?)
Don't just think I eat,breathe, sleep and talk football all day. I still do other things and I do keep myself updated in other areas too.
Hmm? Everyone in the house is sleeping except for me. I am the only one awake still. My parents gave me a nickname - "Security Guard"! Saying that I always sleep later than them. Well? My mother usually sleeps early.
My mother would be like - "You and your father are the same. Always using the computer and always sleeping late."
Ok, that's true. Sometimes I wish I have more time but I guess, there must be a limit to everything and with that, I guess I would have to end my entry.
Before I go, I must say that I am playing online games again. Not Maple Story. Cabal this time. Yeah,yeah... I am still a noob. (Noob = "someone new to a certain thing for my instance, mmorpg game like Cabal.")
It was my brother who keep pestering me to play Cabal and I remember saying - "What's so great about it?" I even say I will not play and guess what? A week or so later, I somehow had a change of heart and give it a shot.
God knows what was next... *grins*
Well? I am only a level 14 Force Shielder. I play when I have the time. Anyone play? Hey, add me! Add me! HAHA. Message me if you want to add. I'm not revealing my nickname here.
That's what it says. That's when I decide to type fast but nowadays I just don't want to type too fast. I remember being the first to type finish for my Elements of Office Administration (E.O.A).
It really is annoying because teacher would give you more and more assignments for you to practice. I remember telling myself to take my time and... Guess what I did? While waiting for the rest to finish, after each page I finished typing, I would take a rest.
When they are about to finish the first page, I would only then proceed to the next one. I hate to finish first because I would have more and more assignments given by my teacher.
That is why my classmate Berwin finishes first. I knew I could have finished first but I choose not to because I hate type all those.
To say that I would get my format wrong, well... That was never really a case because I'll make sure I've formatted it before raising my hand to let my teachers check.
Hmm? Ok, there were a few times I forgot to justify but... That's about it.
Well... Being able to type fast is good but also, if you are always the first one to finish and when you are in that kind of situation, I don't think you would want to be the first to finish it.
Well? These days I'll just type whatever I feel like it. Be it slow,fast or whatsoever... I just type according to my mood.
Then again, I don't think I'm the best. I still think I could type even faster. *grins* Calling me crazy or geeky now? I mean it's achievable - So... Why not?
...But things do not happen overnight. They will only happen when you make an effort over a period of time and to be able to type like that is simply because I started at a young age.
To think about it,I feel that we should start young. It makes your life easier. That's how I feel about it. It's like these days,certain things I can't absorb too much. Yes, this sponge is getting old and "worn out".
I NEED A NEW SPONGE TO ABSORB IT. When we were young, we tend to absorb things faster and better. See! Not fair. Can I have a brand new sponge, please?
Oh well... Moving on now. My Networking Fundamental (NWF) class test is this Wednesday!! Grrrr!! Arghhhhhh... How frustrating. EIGHT CHAPTERS TO COVER!
I'm feeling tired now. In fact,I feel tired these days. Usually on Tuesday I would feel that tired. Hmm? Strange but true. I wonder how I am going to have that energy to STAY LIVELY.
Whatever it is, I am going to stay positive!
Umm? Then again, I am only a human. No matter how positive I try to be, sometimes having a friend by your side to encourage and give you support can make a difference. I don't have the power to be strong everytime. Even the most powerful will eventually fall someday.
Hmm? Actually I have a lot of things in mind but it seems like I don't have the time to update my blog. There's many things I would love to share but I don't know where to start.
I guess... Certain things should be the way it is and we should not change it. Even though we always thought of changing certain things, I just feel that certain things should be left the way it is.
Even I myself can't deny that I've had had that thought before.
All I can say is... I don't want to be an angry person.
Watching "Anger Management" the other day, I feel that I should learn to control my temper. Well,it is somehow better than last time but after watching that movie, it makes me tinker about it.
Being angry is bad. Yeah, who doesn't know? If possible,I just want to be a happy person. A happy-go-lucky person. That is why I don't want to grow up so soon!
However, there are friends who want to grow up fast! Grrr... Why do you want to grow older faster? I definitely don't want. I want to enjoy my life everyday, every moment... To me, when you are older, you have more responsibilities. Don't they think of that?
I think I know the reason why they want to grow up fast. They want more freedom. To them, when you are 21 years old it means - FREEDOM.
Ok, I can sort of agree with it but... that equals to more responsibilities too.
Yes we have to be responsible for what we do. DON'T BE A COWARD. However, why do you want to rush? Everything has it's own time. Someday you'll be able to have this and that,do this and that... Blah blah blah... What have you.
Just take it easy. Go slow and enjoy life as it is. Cherish the things around you. I guess you won't realise it until a certain thing is gone, only then you will realise how much you missed it.
Yawns! Ok, this is my first entry for the month of March and now... Sadly . . . I've to go.
"Be Free, Think Free"
Peace out~

// What does your sleeping position says about you?
What Your Sleeping Position Says
You are calm and rational person with a good deal of balance in your life.
Friends consider you to be kind, caring, and truly loyal.
You are easy going and trusting. However, you are too sensible to fall for mind games.
Open to the world, you are not afraid to be yourself.
If you don't get enough sleep, you are: Able to cope
It's hard to sleep next to you because: You're a bed hog
In love, you are quietly intense, devoted, and tend too hold on too long.
For you, sex is a way to get closer - and a way to take care of your partner.
Overall, you are altruistic and eager to please your sweetie.
However, you tend to also be non-confrontational and secretly frustrated with relationship issues.
Like most sane women, you want a great guy who will treat you well.
But you're also willing to put up with a few flaws in your Mr. Right
You should congratulate yourself on having a realistic approach to dating.
You probably have quite a few great guys you can date!
You're funny, quirky, cute, and sassy.
Guys always have a great time with you, and that alone is sexy.
You've got an upbeat, optimistic spirit that totally shines through.
Any guy would be crazy to turn you down!
Whether you're an official student or a casual learner, you enjoy hitting the books.
You know a little bit about everything, and you're always dying to know more.
For a guy to win your heart, he's got to share some of your intellectual interests.
A awesome book collection of his own doesn't hurt either!
You're barely spoiled. You may have some nice things, but you never let them go to your head.
You appreciate each gift you're given - and you don't dwell on what you "deserve" to have.
Overall, you're a pretty chill person - and you have a good handle on your emotions.
Sometimes your anger gets the best of you, and end up regretting how you act.
Try to curb your temper more often. It only has to get out of control once to do some damage.
