Thursday, February 26, 2009

this seems to be the time where i dedicate songs to my friends.
this one is for claire...
girl, you just think of this as a time where you and ken have to be apart for your
future... just a few more years and you'll be able to spend together forever!
(that sounds like another song!)

A THOUSAND MILES
By: Vanessa Carlton
Making my way downtown
walking fast, faces pass
and I'm homebound
staring blankly ahead
just making my way,
making a wave through the crowd
and I need you and I miss you
and now I wonder

if I could fall into the sky
do you think time would pass me by
cuz you know I'd walk a thousand miles
if I could just see you tonight

it's always times like these when I think of you
and I wonder if you ever think of me
cuz everything's so wrong and I don't belong
living in your precious memory
cuz I need youand I miss you
and now I wonder
if I could fall into the sky
do you think time would pass me by
oh, cuz you know I'd walk a thousand miles
if I could just see you tonight

I, I don't wanna let you know
I, I drown in your memory
I, I don't wanna let this goI, I don't ...

Making my way downtown
walking fast faces pass and I'm homebound
staring blankly ahead
just making my way,
making a wave
through the crowd
and I still need you
and I still miss you
and now I wonder
if I could fall into the sky
do you think time would pass us by
cuz you know I'd walk a thousand miles
if I could just see you...
if I could fall into the sky
do you think time would pass me by
cuz you know I'd walk a thousand miles
if I could just see you...
if I could just hold you tonight

yummy!

Right Na Na Na by Akon

Sunday, February 22, 2009

recently, on trips to Cotton On, i've been hearing this song by Akon, and it's just stuck in my head like a fly buzzing non- stop! so i decided to get the file from my friend and i've been listening to it for the past few days. it's just addictive!

Right Na Na Na
by Akon
It´s been so long
that I haven seen your face
I´m trying to be strong
but the strength I have is washin' away
It won't be long
Before I get you by my side
And just hold you
tease you
squeeze you
tell you what´s been on my mind
I wanna make up right now na na
I wanna make love right now na na
Wish we never broke up right now na na
We need to link up right now na na
I wanna make up right now na na
I wanna make love right now na na
Wish we never broke up right now na na
We need to link up right now na na
Girl I know
Mistakes were made between us two
And we showed ourselves that night
Even said some things weren't true
Why'd you go?
I haven´t seen my girl since then
Why can´t it be the way it was
Cause you were my homie, lover, girlfriend
I wanna make up right now na na
I wanna make love right now na na
Wish we never broke up right now na na
We need to link up right now na na
I wanna make up right now na na
I wanna make love right now na na
Wish we never broke up right now na na
We need to link up right now na na
I can´t lie
(I miss you much)
Watching everyday that goes by (I miss you much)
Till I get you back I´m gonna try (Yes, I miss you much)
Cause you are the apple of my eye (Girl, I miss you much)
(I miss you much)
I can´t lie(I miss you much)
Watching everyday that goes by (I miss you much)
Till I get you back I´m gonna try (Yes, I miss you much)
Cause you are the apple of my eye (Girl, I miss you much)
(I miss you much)
I wanna make up right now na na
I wanna make love right now na na
Wish we never broke up right now na na
We need to link up right now na na
I wanna make up right now na na
I wanna make love right now na na
Wish we never broke up right now na na
We need to link up right now na na
I want you to fly with me (Want you to fly)
I miss how you lie with me (miss how you lie)
Just wish you could dine with me (wish you could dine with me)
The one that will grind with me (one that will grind with me)
I want you to fly with me (Want you to fly)
I miss how you lie with me (Oh, miss how you lie)
Just wish you could dine with me (wish you could dine with me)
The one that will grind with me (Oh, one that will grind)
I wanna make up right now na na
I wanna make love right now na na
Wish we never broke up right now na na
We need to link up right now na na
I wanna make up right now na na
I wanna make love right now na na
Wish we never broke up right now na na
We need to link up right now na na



going out in a dress...or a pair of shorts...









if there's one thing i've noticed these past few months here in singapore, it's the fact that women of all ages seem to love wearing dresses and shorts, no matter their height or weight.

so, i think to myself, since i've lost a few(!) pounds of the weight that i gained during my sabbatical from work in the philippines, i decided to buy a dress (gasp) and a pair of shorts that i shared with claire (2 for $30), otherwise, it would be too expensive for me to purchase alone.
i wore the dress during sunday service and a trip with friends to Vivo City to watch a movie. i've never really shown my picture on this blog, but what the heck! here i am, in my day-in-a-dress-glory! and some pics of me in shorts during my day with rovie,claire and jorie in the east coast.

the curious case of benjamin button

" i was born under unusual circumstances..."

about 1 or 2 weeks ago, i watched "the curious case of benjamin button" at Vivo City with some friends. i've heard people raving at how good it was so i decided to recommend it to friends for us to watch.


about 2-3 hours later, my butt was sore from sitting at the the theatre for so long, i have to pee like hell, but we all came out with the same thoughts running thru our heads. "Wow!". granted it was long, but i guess that was needed to explain the 80+ years of the lead character's life.


brad pitt and cate blanchett were amazing as the lead stars, but the actress who played benjamin's adoptive mother was great! i almost cried when her character died! i heard that brad and the mom (taraji p henson) received acting nominations for this year's academy award. best of luck to them!


i'm hoping to watch the movie again, this time preferably somewhere in the middle part of the theatre! first time we watched it, we were right in front, the cinema was so packed! i think i strained my neck just to get a good view of brad... and cate too of course!

more songs!

this one is for rovie and ate cel,
and all the times we spent laughing
when watching "friends"!!!


I'll Be There for You
by The Rembrandts
So no one told you life was gonna be this way
Your job's a joke, you're broke, your love life's D.O.A.
It's like you're always stuck in second gear
When it hasn't been your day, your week, your month, or even your year
but..
I'll be there for you
When the rain starts to pour
I'll be there for you
Like I've been there before
I'll be there for you
'Cuz you're there for me too...
You're still in bed at ten and work began at eight
You've burned your breakfast so far...
things are goin' great
Your mother warned you there'd be days like these
Oh but she didn't tell you when the world has brought
You down to your knees that...
I'll be there for you
When the rain starts to pour
I'll be there for you
Like I've been there before
I'll be there for you
'Cuz you're there for me too...
No one could ever know me
No one could ever see me
Seems you're the only one who knows
What it's like to be me
Someone to face the day with
Make it through all the rest with
Someone I'll always laugh with
Even at my worst
I'm best with you, yeah
It's like you're always stuck in second gear
When it hasn't been your day, your week, your month, or even your year...
I'll be there for you
When the rain starts to pour
I'll be there for you
Like I've been there before
I'll be there for you'
Cuz you're there for me too...
I'll be there for youI'll be there for you
I'll be there for you
'Cuz you're there for me too...

fallin'

now, a song that would currently describe the way i'm feeling right now.

Fallin'
by Regine Velasquez
I'm afraid to fly
And I don't know why
I'm jealous of the people
who are not afraid to die
It's just that I recall
Back when I was small
Someone promise that they'd catch me
But then they let me fall
And now I'm fallin
Fallin fast again
Why do I always take a fall
When I fall in love
You think by now i've learned
Play with fire
You'll get burn
But fire can be oh so warm
And that's why i return
Turn and walk away
That's what i should do
My head says go and find the door
My heart says i found you
And now I'm fallin
Catch me if you can
Maybe this time I'll have it all
When I fall in love
Loving someone...
I only got me to blame
help me i'm fallin fallin
Catch me if you can
Maybe this time i'll have it all
Maybe i'll make it after all
Maybe this time
I won't fall
When I fall in love
Oh ohh
-'nough said.

you've made me stronger by regine velasquez

for my friend jorie,
isampal mo sa pagmumukha nya to! =)
no, but seriously...
i'm hoping to someday be there on the day when you'll see each other,
and you're really ok with it,
no pains, no heartaches, no vindictive thoughts running
thru your head.
just a smile to show him
that you're really ok.
hoping for all the best for you, friend.


You've Made Me Stronger
by Regine Velasquez


Is it hard to believe I’m okay
After all, it’s been awhile
Since you walked away
I’m way past crying
Over you finding someone new
You turned my days into nights (days into nights)
But now I see the light
And this maybe a big surprise to you
cause you made me stronger
By breaking my heart
You ended my life
And made a better one start
You taught me everything
From falling in love
To letting go of a lie
Yes, you made me stronger
Baby, by saying goodbye
If you rather believe I’m not over you
Go ahead There’s nothing wrong with making believe
I know Cuz I used to pretend you’d come back to me
But time has been such a friend
Brought me to my senses again
And I have you to thank (I have you to thank)
For setting me free (for setting me free)
Cuz you’ve made me stronger
By breaking my heart
You ended my life
And made a better one start
You taught me everything
From falling in love
To letting go of a lie
Yes, you’ve made me stronger
Baby, by saying goodbye
Think again
Don’t feel so sorry for me, my friend
Oh, don’t you know
I’m not the one who lose at end (I’m not the one)
Cuz you’ve made me stronger
By breaking my heart
You ended my life
And made a better one start
You taught me everything
From falling in love
To letting go of a lie
Yes, you’ve made me stronger
Baby, by saying goodbye
You ended my life
And made a better one start
You taught me everything
From falling in love
To letting go of a lie
Yes, you’ve made me stronger
Baby, by saying goodbye, goodbye
You’ve made me stronger
Baby, by saying goodbye
-hey, let's go to a karaoke next time we're all free!
