Breaking Benjamin - So Cold (Album: We Are Not Alone / 2004)

Crowded streets all cleared away
One by One
Hollow heroes separate
As they run

You're so cold
Keep your hand in mine
Wise men wonder while
Strong men die

[Chorus]

Show me how it ends it's alright

Show me how defenseless you really are
Satisfied and empty insidewell
That's alright, let's give this another try

If you find your family, don't you cry
In this land of make-believe, dead and dry

You're so cold, but you feel alive
Lay your hand on me one last time

[Chorus x2]

It's alright [x9]

Ash - Season (Album: Trailer / 1995)

Late summer you walked into my life
I remember the autumn, I remember that night
That smile on your face, the pale pale moon
All good times still left to come

I remember the autumn, I remember that night
That smile on your face, the pale pale moon
All good times still left to come

Awoke by a phone call one cold night
In my dream you had been going to die

I felt so scared that I was going to loose you
When I answered the phone I already knew

I cried bitter tears you had been taken your own life

Down the corridor to the bedroom
I sit there in silence all alone
Alone is all I'll ever be
Except at night when you visit my dreams
It tears my mind I can't see you tomorrow.

Incubus - Quicksand (Album: Light Grenades / 2006)

OK now the monster is awake.
It won't rest until there's nothing left.
Maybe ever & anon I forget about the pain.
Someone bending light comes along

And flowers lean towards the sun.
Some people fall in love & touch the sky
Some people fall in love & find quicksand.
I hover somewhere in between I swear I can't make up my mind.

Happy birthday Benita Low.

Keith Urban - Used To The Pain (Album: Love, Pain & The Whole Crazy Thing / 2006)

And so I wrote this song for you
I think I know just what you're going through
Did you believe you'd never change
Nothin ever stays the same

I know it's hard holdin on
Even harder trying to let it go
And so you're frozen like a stone
But you are not alone

Every step I takeI get a little less afraid
Of giving in to love, love
Let it out
Believe me when I say
It gets better every day
Once you get used to the pain

What you hide inside I see

There's a scar that's always gonna be
There's a past in everyone
You can't undo
You can't outrun

Every step I take
I get a little less afraid
Of giving in to love, love
Let it out
Believe me when I say
It gets better every day
Once you get used to the pain

Every step I take
I get a little less afraidOf giving in to love, love
Let it out
Believe me when I say
It gets better every day
Once you get used to the pain

Once you get used to the pain

Feist - Lonely Lonely (Album: Let It Die / 2005)

Water water on the seeds
To my left they rose and leaf
To my right cross Seven Seas

Maybe maybe they'll stay true
My seeds will cross and then take root
And leave you to an empty room
Lonely lonely that is you
Lonely lonely that is you

Paper paper obsolete
How will you reach out to me
I thought you'd ask me not to leave
Lonely lonely that is me
Lonely lonely that is me

Distance makes the heart grow weak
So that the mouth can barely speak
Except to those who hide their needs
And I have read the golden seal
That tell of how the seedlings feel

Reminds my heart what love can yield
By my only things are clear
Baby boy I'm staying here
Lonely lonely that was you
Lonely and so untrue

INTER-CLASS. Turns out the jersey isn't red. It's YELLOW. Wicked. ADIDAS. KENNETH. 19 (I changed my number to 19 cos Gabriel wanted 14).

Anyways. We ended up 2nd in touch rugby (losing 3-0 to 333) and 3rd in soccer (winning 324 4-1). So. We're practically and statistically the top class by results. Cool huh. Bad thing is, neither of the 325 form tutors turned up. Not even one. So the entire class. Was effing pissed off.

Then again, after the entire tournament, I went out with one entire of 333 people. Tej, Terry, Samuel, Jonathan, Feroz, Michael, Wei Hao, Yamani and Bryan David. Yea. We were planning to go to Plaza Singapura. At the bus-stop, we met Jerome, Syafiq, Nicholas, Gabriel, Syazwan, Zeus, Tim Choo, Anselm, Brandon etc. Therefore the bus-stop was totally packed with SJI guys. In then end, we didn't take 190 cos it was too crowded and we didn't wanna squeeze. So we took 960 and changed an MRT to Dhoby Ghaut. Yea.

At Plaza Singapura, we ran into Jerome and the lot again. At Burger King. How ironic.

Orientation Campfire was a hell lot of fun. I got to leave training early. PDS. And I'm involved. Fucking dumb. At least I got to leave 45 mins early.

Campfire. 102 couldn't find their class keys. Spent nearly 15 mins trying to find them keys. Then we started cheering, making waves , singing. Yea. You got the point. The lighting of the fire was uber cool. Seriously. Check out the photos on Gerald's blog. Then we began singing, cheering, dancing (yes, the PSLs danced). Damn fun but I was sweating like some frigging dog. In the end, everyone was singing all the way back to class. James and I kept singing Boys Like Girls' Hero/Heroine. Then Mrs Josephine Lee thought we inhaled helium cos we were singing in a damn high voice. I guess everyone was hyper. High on sugar.

P.S. (This is for Nick Loo only) - I owe you $1.60 remind me on Tuesday to repay you!

Razorlight - Who Needs Love? (Album: Razorlight / 2006)

Oooh darling who needs love?
Who needs a heaven up above?
Who needs the clouds, in the sky, not I

Oooh darling who needs the rain?
Who needs somebody that can feel your pain?
Who needs the disappointment, of a telephone call, not I
No I don't need that at all, not I

I'm, tired of love
Yeah, sick of love
I've taken more than enough

Oooh darling who needs the night?
The sacred hours, the fading life
Who needs the morning, and the joy it brings, not I
I've got my mind on other things, not I

Oooh darling who needs joy?
Who needs a perfect girl or boy?
And who needs to draw, that person near, not I

Because they always disappear, not I

And you know, I'm, tired of love
Yeah
Yeah I'm, sick of love
Yeah
You give me more than enough

I'm gone!

Oooh darling who needs love?
Who needs a heaven up above?
Who needs all the arguments, who needs to be right, not I
But I just can't give up without a fight, not I
No I just can't give up without a fight, not I
No I just can't give up without a fight, not I
No no no not I
Ooh no no not I
No no no no no not I

Teddy Geiger - Seven Days Without You (Album: Underage Thinking / 2006)

Sitting here counting the hours
Waiting for the sun to kiss the sea
Paralyzed by the fragrance of the flowers
They remind me of you and me

[Chorus]
This one love in a lifetime
Our two hearts of a kind
These three reasons you'll be mine
For there's a five or six ways through
Seven days without you
Seven days without you

Making plans just to stop the aching
Chasing thoughts from a million miles away
Hypnotized as another dawn is breaking
I rehearse the words I want to say

[Chorus]

For when you and I will find a way until you're home
To let the giant sleep this fire we know is

[Chorus]
IMT shooting. Failed. 7/20. Doesn't matter. Don't really give a damn.

Craig David - Top Of The Hill (Album: Trust Me / 2007)

Hmm...

There was a boy,
he lived in a big white house
And he was quite happy there.
He knew the dog and the cats and his brother.
And the maid that was there all day.
Does anyone know?
Does anyone know?

That there's cause for it, ways forward.
Don't give up 'cos this is worth fighting for.
So come on rise up.
Tell everyone from the top of the hill to the ghetto.

Hmm...

There was a girl,
she showed him how to kiss.
And she was quite good at kissing.
She lived on her own in a run-down one bed flat.
Her dad left to fight not for her.
Does anyone know?
Does anyone know?

(Repeat chorus)

Where have all the teachers gone?
The one;s who taught us right from wrong,
come on come on.
Tell me what is going on,
come on come on.
Does anyone know?
Does anyone know?

(Repeat chorus x2)

Flyleaf - I'm So Sick (Album: Flyleaf / 2007)

I will break into your thoughts
With what's written on my heart
I will break, break

I'm so sick,
Infected with where I live
Let me live without this
Empty bliss,
Selfishness
I'm so sick
I'm so sick

If you want more of this
We can push out, sell out, die out
So you'll shut up
And stay sleeping
With my screaming in your itching ears

I'm so sick,
Infected with where I live
Let me live without this
Empty bliss,
Selfishness
I'm so sickI'm so sick

Hear it, I'm screaming it
You're heeding to it now

Hear it! I'm screaming it!
You tremble at this sound

You sink into my clothes
And this invasion
Makes me feel
Worthless, hopeless, sick

I'm so sick,
Infected with where I live
Let me live without this
Empty bliss,
Selfishness
I'm so sick
I'm so sick

I'm so sick
Infected with where I live
Let me live without this
Empty bliss, selfishness
I'm so
I'm so sick
I'm so
I'm so sick
Flyleaf. The best.

CLASS JERSEY. RED. KENNETH. 14.
OMG. Lee Si Jun is hardcore spamming me on messenger. Damnit.
Justina. You egoist.
After Legion. I dragged Gerald to Plaza Singapura to buy a couple pairs of shorts. HE had to follow. Didn't have a choice. So I bought him a drink after that. So nice of him. And me.

Listening to:
Muse - New Born
Die. Totally. I almost fried my fingers today. Attempting to burn the ping-pong ball during Legion. The ping-pong ball just exploded into flames. Then Jonathan Saw was like, "YOU PYROMANIAC!" Craziness.

Anyways. During PSE, there was this talk about the exchange programmes to other countries. There's OBS (Sabah), a trip to Chennai (with MGS), a trip to Suzhou, one to Beijing (just before the Olympics), a Geography trip to Bali and there's this trip to Manila for people in Service Groups (including Legion). HAHA.

The merit-based Europe trip for History students isn't confirmed yet, but I think it will be by next month. Well, Gerald's thinking to apply for the Bali and the Chennai trip. The latter because of the MGS gals. I'm thinking of applying for Chennai (same reason), China or Europe. Either one would be nice, all three would be the best. The application forms for Beijing and Bali are already out I think. And I shall apply for Beijing.

James Morrison - One Last Chance (Album: Undiscovered / 2006)

In my life I don't mean much to anyone
I've lost my way can't go back anymore
Once I had everything now it's gone
Don't tell me again coz I've heard it all before

Some people say that I'm not worth it
I've made mistakes but nobody's perfect
Guess I'll give it a try

I've got one last chance to get myself together

I can't lose no more time it's now or never and I try to remember who I used to be
I've got one more chance to get myself together

The time has come for me to change again
I can't carry on like this, I will lose my friends
Don't say that you have given up on me
Just give me the time and space to heal my head

I don't wanna be misunderstood
I've got to take this chance and make it into something good
Crazy. I'm gonna spend my entire day with Vanessa. Nuts.

Van Halen - Can't Stop Loving You

Ryan Cabrera - With You Gone (Album: You Stand Watching / 2005)

Looking back if we had one more night to spend
I would steal every second I would never let it end
Like the taste of your lips what I'd give to drink you in

I will always remember and I know that it goes with me
I will never leave this part of you behind

With you gone it plays on it's so hard to move on
I want to but I wanted you
Now you stay in my head
I'm not over you yet
I try to but I wanted you

What I miss overall is a smile I can't replace
'Cause it starts in your eyes and
It filled up all the space in my heart
I know I will always remember and
I know that it goes with me
I will never leave this part of you behind

With you gone it plays on it's so hard to move on

I want to but I wanted you
Now you stay in my head
I'm not over you yet
I try to but I wanted you

Make no mistake I'm here in this place
And I'm waiting around for you
And I can't help it I'm still searching
For some way to get through

I will always remember

With you gone it plays on it's so hard to move on
I want to but I wanted you
Now you stay in my head
I'm not over you yet
I try to but I wanted you
I wanted you
I will always remember
I will always remember

Oasis - Stop Crying Your Heart Out (Album: Heathen Chemistry / 2000)

Hold up... hold on... don't be scared,
You'll never change what's been and gone.
May your smile... Shine on...
Don't be scared,
Your destiny may keep you warm.

Cos all of the stars have faded away,
Just try not to worry,
You'll see them some day.
Take what you need,
And be on your way,
And stop crying your heart out.

Get up... Come on... why you scared?
You'll never change what's been and gone.

Cos all of the stars have faded away,
Just try not to worry,
You'll see them some day.

Take what you need,
And be on your way,
And stop crying your heart out.

Cos all of the stars have faded away,
Just try not to worry,
You'll see them some day.
Just take what you need,
And be on your way,
And stop crying your heart out.

When all of the stars were faded away,
Just try not to worry,
You'll see us some day.
Just take what you need,
And be on your way,
And stop crying your heart out.

Stop crying your heart out. (3x)

Nirvana - Lake Of Fire (Album: Unplugged In New York [Live] / 1994)

Where do bad folks go when they die?
They don't go to heaven where the angels fly
They go to a lake of fire and fry
See them again 'till the fourth of July

I knew a lady who came from Duluth
Bitten by a dog with a rabid tooth
She went to her grave just a little too soon
And she flew away howling on the yellow moon

Where do bad folks go when they die?
They don't go to heaven where the angels fly
They go to a lake of fire and fry
See them again 'till the fourth of July

People cry and the people moan
And they look for a dry place to call their home
And try to find some place to rest their bones
While the angels and the devils try to make them their own

Where do bad folks go when they die?
They don't go to heaven where the angels fly
They go to a lake of fire and fry
See them again 'till the fourth of July
OLD SJI VISIT. The Secondary Ones went to Old SJI today. Along Bras Basah Road. So. As PSLs, me, Bryan Ong and Tej went along to guide them. Pretty cool huh. It was a great enriching experience. Plus. The fact that I got to skip four hours of training, proves that it was really worth it. I went for like one hour, and then we got dismissed. Didn't really do anything, still on MC anyways.
I'm finally beginning to actually feel better. Thank God.

INXS - Devil's Party (Album: Switch / 2005)

At the devil's party nothing's a sin
At the devil's party, we know where you've been
If we're all right then tell me who's wrong
Love and war, where do we belong?

I might believe it's love, you might believe it's war

At the devil's party there's no light from the sun
At the devil's party, now, life's a loaded gun
More or less? Yeah you know, less is more
Go on and be my guest
Where do we belong?

I might believe it's love, you might give a little more

Dreams of yours, dreams of mine
Dreams of all that shine on the other side, on the other side

At the devil's party watch them standing in line
At the devil's party, now, see no friends of mine
Oh, lonely days on the road to excess
When you're on fire you burn like the rest

I might believe it's love, and you might believe it's war
Why don't we take a little less?
Then we could live a little more

Dreams of yours, dreams of mine
Dreams of all that's green on the other side, on the other side

Hawthorne Heights - Ohio Is For Lovers (Album: The Silence In Black And White / 2004)

Hey there
I know it's hard to feel like
I don't care at all
Where you are and how you feel
With these lights off as these wheels
keep rolling on and on
(And on and on and on)
Slow things down or speed them up
Not enough or way too much
(And on and on and on)
How are you when I'm gone?

And I can't make it on my own
(And I can't make it on my own)
Because my heart is in Ohio

So cut my wrists and black my eyes
(Cut my wrists and black my eyes)
So I can fall asleep tonight or die
Because you kill me
You know you do, you kill me well
You like it too, and I can tell
You never stop until my final breath is gone

Spare me just three last words
I love you is all she heard
I'll wait for you, but I can't wait forever

Spare me just three last words
i love you is all she heard
I'll wait for you but i cant wait forever

And I can't make it on my own
(And I can't make it on my own)
Because my heart is in Ohio

So cut my wrists and black my eyes

(Cut my wrists and black my eyes)
So I can fall asleep tonight or die
Because you kill me
You know you do, you kill me well
You like it too, and I can tell
You'll never stop until my final breath is gone

You (you)know you do, you kill me well(kill)
You like it too, and I can tell(me)
You'll never stop until my (well)final breath is gone

So cut my wrists(you) and black my eyes(kill)
My final breath is gone(me)..(WELL)
And i cant make it on my own
Because my heart is in Ohio

So cut my wrists and black my eyes(CUT MY WRIST AND BLACK MY EYES)
So i can fall asleep tonight or die
Because you kill me
You know you do you kill me well
You like it to and i can tell
You'll never stop until my final breath is gone

You know you do you kill me well
You like it to and i can tell
You'll never stop until my final breath is gone

You know you do you kill me well
You like it to and i can tell
You'll never stop until my final breath is gone

You know you do you kill me well
You like it to and i can tell
You'll never stop until my final breath is gone

Yellowcard - City OF Devils (Album: Lights And Sounds / 2006)

Man once sang to me
Look at you saving the world on your own
And I wonder how things gonna be
Cos the time here it passes so slow
In a city of devils we live
A city of devils we live
Find somebody to learn
Boy you gotta love someone more than yourself
I can feel the fire of the city lights burn
It's hard to find angels in hell

[Chorus]

Flying alone I
Feel like I don't belong and I,
Can't tell right from the wrong, why,
Have I been here so long

In a city of devils we live
A city of devils we live

Questions I can't seem to find
To the answers I already have

And you can't see the sky here tonight
So I guess I can't make my way back

[Chorus]

What if I wanted you here right now
Would you fall in the fire burn me down
If I wanted you here right now
Would you fall in the fire burn me down
If I wanted you here right now...

In a city of devils we live
In a city of devils we live
A city of devils we live
In a city of...

[Chorus]

I don't belong
Don't belong
I've been here too long
Too long
Shit. Now I've got a sore throat, flu, and fever. Literally what the hell. It was Inaugural Service today in school today. Nothing special. Except I skipped mass, Legion and PDS. So I could go see a doctor. That's all. No big deal.

Somebody please kill me. Kill me before my arms do. Or the flu and sore throat kill me as well. Shit. I rather die. Well. I think at least I'm dying. Instead of having to suffer more. Someone please kill me.

Maybe I'll go see a doctor today or tomorrow. Get an MC. Skip school on Monday and Tuesday, skip Maths test on Tuesday. Great idea. I'll do that. Provided I don't die.

I don't care. My arms are killing me. Toodles for now. In the meantime, good day.

Less Than Jake - Welcome To The New South (Album: Anthem / 2003)

Welcome home outcast
because I know how you have felt over the years
The truth is that looking at me is like looking in the mirror
And I know how it feels to be the best part
of a running joke to all of your friends

And to be on the edge of your bed
With your head buried in you hands
Wishing that everything would end
I know how it feels to be the loneliest

Welcome back outcast
because I’ve told myself that it would be alright
Probably a million times over every minute of all of my life
I know how it feels to be so confused
that you’re so far out of control

And to be on the edge of your bed

With your head buried in you hands
Wishing that everything would end
I know how it feels to be the loneliest

So you sit and wait for a sign
That the coming days will be alright
And you drink so you can forget another night
Bruised from the blackouts and your blood red eyes
Try to start looking for the brighter side
Wait for a sign, wait for a sign, wait for a sign

Welcome home, everything will be alright
And I know how it feels to be the best part
of a running joke all of your life

Welcome home, outcasts welcome home
Outcasts welcome home, outcasts welcome home
Welcome home

Sunday 13 January 2008

Well. I woke up today and I couldn't move my damn arms. Then my Mother told me that it was my Grandmother's birthday today, and we were gonna dinner at this fancy restaurant, and I would have to wear a shirt and a tie. About ten minutes later, she said that they cancelled the dinner because my Grandmother wasn't feeling particularly well. So. No dinner. Sad case.

Sonata Arctica - Out In The Fields (Album: Unia / 2007)

It doesn't matter
If you're wrong or if you're right
It makes no difference
If you're black or if you're white

All men are equal
Till the victory is won
No colour or religion
Ever stopped the bullet from a gun

Out in the fields
The fighting has begun
Out on the streets
They're falling one by one
Out from the skies
A thousand more will die each day
Death is just a heartbeat away

It doesn't matter
If you're left or to the right
Don't try to hide behind the cause
They want to fight

There'll be no prisoners taken
When the day is done
No flag, no uniform
Ever stopped the bullet from a gun

Out in the fields
The fighting has begun
Out on the streets
They're falling one by one
Out from the skies

A thousand more will die each day
Death is just a heartbeat away

There's no communication
No one to take the blame
The cries of every nation
They're falling on deaf ears again

Out in the fields
Out in the fields
They're falling one by one
Out in the fields
No flag has ever stopped
The bullet from a gun

Death is just a heartbeat away
Out in the fields
A heartbeat awayOut in the fields
Death is just a heartbeat away
Out in the fieldsA heartbeat away
Out in the fields

In the fields
The fighting has begun
Out on the streets
They're falling one by one
Out from the skies
A thousand more will die each day

OUT!

I almost forgot.Again. Happy 15th birthday James Law.

APPOLOGIES.

Awesome. The talented James Law actually spelt something wrongly. 'Apologies' into 'Appologies'. That's new for a start.

Listening to:
Queen - Body Language
I so don't feel well. I sound like a 70 year old man. My throat fucking hurts. My arm muscles are tearing apart, and my thigh muscles are killing me. What a great combination. Damn. It doesn't help that I have 2.4km run coming up this Tuesday. Fuck it.

Listening to:
Poison - Nothin' But A Good Time
Well. Today was a relatively crazy day. My first Friday of lessons.

Physics. Was lame; Ms Yam thought I did my Physics graph when I actually like, borrowed it from Ivan, who got scolded by her. Because he 'didn't bring'. So sorry Ivan! Then Ms Yam was like, the graph's really good. And half the time I was like, shit. Sorry again Ivan.

Chinese. Wang Wen gave us some summary thing. And we didn't know how to do. So Edwin and I were doing other stuff. He was doing Physics homework, I was doing Maths corrections. In the end, with ten minutes left, I just haphazardly did the summary. Heck care Wang Wen. She can go and die for all I care. Please change the darn Chinese teacher goddamnit!

End of the day. I went up to 3G2-1 to find James, but then we decided to go one level up the stairs to 3G3-1 in order to find Tej and Bryan David. Fintan house was doing their cheer session for S1OC, so about fifteen of us were on the 3rd floor out-cheering the Secondary Ones. Ruizhi for one, was pretty shocked. Cool. And I think Brother Jason was pretty impressed. For once.

Training. Was fucking shit. Jun Hong decided to knock us down in like, the first half an hour. Around 60 damn push-ups. I was like, fuck. All because the Secondary Ones were watching us. Fuck. But then came the good stuff. Turns out that both Julian and Thiaghu went for the CLT course during the holidays. Which is pretty darn awesome.

PT. Crazy. Julian pushed us around for 6 laps round the track. Craziness. The specialists still knocked us down after every round. Nuts. Then we went back. To the part-bench. And did pull-ups. I did only four. Yes, it's a very small one digit number. Only. Fucking four. My arms muscles were like tearing off. Finally. THANK GOD. It started raining. Finally.

Gastric. Then I was having like gastric when my dad picked me up from school. Because I skipped lunch. Screw it. And I couldn't darn stand it. And I had to wait TWO hours for my brother to finish his training. Nuts.

HOMEWORK. SHIT. So much homework, so little time. Crazy. I have: 3 Literature assignments, 1 Maths worksheet and 3 Physics graphs to draw. Plus. There's an upcoming A.Maths test this Tuesday. Better study hard for it. But I pretty happy that there will never be any Chinese homework from Wang Wen. Thank God. Toodles for now. And good day.

Hard-Fi - We Need Love (Album: Once Upon A Time In The West / 2007)

In Birmingham, in London - what we need now is love.
Not hate and fear, blood and tears - what we need now is love.

Walking down my street tonight, west London style...
There's something in the air tonight, I haven't felt for a while,
I see the fear, I see the fear in your eyes,
When they keep you afraid you believe all their lies.

In the county towns, in football grounds - what we need now is love.
Not suspicion, division - what we need now is love.
In Washington, New York City - what we need now is love.
Not hate and fear, blood and tears - what we need now is love.

Walking down my street today, west London style...

There's something going on today, Everyone's acting wild,
I see the fear, I see the fear in your eyes,
When they keep you afraid you believe all their lies.

In Liverpool, in Glasgow - what we need now is love.
Not suspicion, division - what we need now is love.
In Washington, New York City - what we need now is love.
Not hate and fear, blood and tears - what we need now is love.

When the sun goes down, on the mill towns - what we need now is love.
Not suspicion, division - what we need now is love.
In Washington, New York City - what we need now is love.
San Salvador, me amor - what we need now is love.

The Ataris - The Saddest Song (Album: So Long, Astoria / 2003)

Only two more days, until your birthday
Yesterday was mine
You'll be turning five
I know what it's like, growing up without your father in your life
So I pretend, I'm doing all I can
And I hope someday you'll find it in your heart

To understand
Why I'm not around
And forgive me for not being in your life

I remember waiting
For you to come
Remember waiting
For you to call
Remember waiting there to find nothing at all
I remember waiting
For you to come
Remember waiting
For you to call
Waiting there to find nothing at all

Maybe someday
You really get to know me
Not just the letters read to you

I pray I get the chance
To make it up to you
We got a lot of catching up to do
So I pretend, I'm doing all I can
And hope someday you'll find it in your heart

To understand
Why I'm not around
And forgive me for not being in your life

I remember waiting
For you to come
Remember waiting
For you to call
Remember waiting there to find nothing at all
I remember waiting
For you to come
Remember waiting
For you to call
Waiting there to find nothing at all

Forgive me!
I'm so sorry!
I will make it up to you....

LUCK

Today was a lucky day. Anyways. Did Chinese compostion during Chinese. Took the entire lesson. 100 mins. Great. Then it was PE. I was like. Fuck. 2.4km and pull-ups. Luckily the teachers decided to give some dumb briefing about the PE programme for the year. So. THANK GOD.
After recess, it was CHEMISTRY and sad to say, I dozed off. Luckily Mr Chen didn't catch me sleeping. Then it was English. Ms Tan brought us to Malcolm Park for some five senses worksheet. Once again, useless English lesson. We spent more time slacking around than doing the worksheet. Oh yea. And Howard dirtied his ass. His brown ass.
Last lesson. MATHS. Fuck. The test results came back and I got a fucking bad score of 18.5 over 35. Damn pissed. Then Ms Soh kept blabbering around. Didin't really understand what she was saying. Its FRIDAY TOMORROW. Thank God for Friday and but no thanks for training.

Bloc Party - Hunting For Witches (Album: Weekend In The City / 2007)

I'm sitting, on the roof of my house
With a shotgun and a six pack of beer.
The newscaster says the enemy is among us,
As bombs explode on the 30 bus,
Kill your middle class indecision,
Now is not the time for a liberal thought,

So I go hunting for witches
I go hunting for witches
Heads are going to roll
I go hunting for..

1990's,Optimistic as a teen.
But now its terror,
airplanes crash into towers
The Daily Mail says the enemy is among us,

Taking our women and taking our jobs,
All reasonable thought is being drowned out
By the non-stop baying, baying for blood.

So I'll go hunting for witches
I go hunting for witches
Heads are going to roll

I was an ordinary man with ordinary desire
I watched TV, it informed me
I was an ordinary man with ordinary desire
There must be accountability
Desperate and misinformed
Fear will keep us all in place

Wednesday 9 January 2008

I better drink coffee tomorrow morning. I felt so guilty sleeping during Chemistry today. No matter how interesting Mr Chen's lesson was. (It wasn't) Sorry Mr Chen. I'm gonna sleep earlier. Good day.

the greatest view.

Track my movement in seating position for the first two weeks. I was at the back of the class, 7th row, then I moved to the 4th row yesterday, and today I moved to the 3rd row. Amazing. All thanks to Mrs Ho's funny height obession. THANK GOD.
The song below should have been the first one on the blog. Anyway. Doesn't matter anymore. It's finally up.

Avenged Sevenfold - Critical Acclaim (Album: Avenged Sevenfold / 2007)

Yeahhh!

Shh be quiet, you might piss somebody off
Like me motherfucker, you've been at it for too long
While you feed off others insecurities
You stand in front of me and bite the hand that feeds

Self-righteousness is wearing thin
(Lies inside your head your bestfriend)
heart bleeds but not for fellow man
(Broken glass, your fake reflection)

I've had enough, It's time for something real
I don't respect the words you're speaking
Gone too far, A clone

So how does it feel to know that someones kid in the heart of america
Has blood on their hands, fighting to defend your rights
So you can maintain the lifestyle that insults his family's existance
Well, where I'm from we have a special salute we aim high in the air
Towards all those pompous assholes who spend their days pointing fingers

Shh be quiet, you might piss somebody off
Like the heartbeat of this country when antagonized too long
I'll be damned if you count me in as part of your generous hypocrisy
Collecting enemies

Tabloid gossip queen worthless men
(There's no need for us to bury you)
Selfish agenda, once again
(Right this way, you've dug your own grave)

I've had enough, It's time for something real
I don't respect the words you're speaking
Gone too far, A clone

All the way from the east to the west
We've got this high society looking down on this very foundation
Constantly reminding us that our actions are the cause of all their problems
Pointing their fingers in every direction
Blaming their own nation for who wins the elections
They've never contributed a fucking thing to the country they love to criticize

Excuse the obscene, ignore the untrue
Depictions we see, try and get through
Admitting mistakes can hurt
I'm not the last but I sure ain't the first

Shh be quiet, you might piss somebody off

Self-righteousness is wearing thin
(Lies inside your head your bestfriend)
heart bleeds but not for fellow man
(Broken glass, your fake reflection)

I've had enough, It's time for something real
I don't respect the words you're speaking
Gone too far, A clone
Some of the pictures from S1OC are up. There's more to be uploaded. Sorry about the arrangement. Blogger's screwed up my post. Doesn't really matter for now. I hope.

Snow Patrol - Set The Fire To The Third Bar [Featuring Martha Wainwright] (Album: Eyes Open / 2006)

I find a map and draw a straight line
Over rivers, farms, and state lines
The distance from A to where you B
It's only finger-lengths that I see
I touch the place
Where I'd find your face
My fingers in creases of distant dark places

I hang my coat up in the first bar
There is no peace that I've found so far
The laughter penetrates my silence
As drunken men find flaws in science

Their words mostly noises
Ghosts with just voices
Your words in my memory
Are like music to me

I'm miles from where you are,
I lay down on the cold ground
And I, I pray that something picks me up

And sets me down in your warm arms

After I have traveled so far
We'd set the fire to the third bar
We'd share each other like an island
Until exhausted, close our eyelids
And dreaming, pick up from
The last place we left off
Your soft skin is weeping
A joy you can't keep in

I'm miles from where you are,
I lay down on the cold ground
And I, I pray that something picks me up
and sets me down in your warm arms

And miles from where you are,
I lay down on the cold ground
and I, I pray that something picks me up
and sets me down in your warm arms
Guess what? It's my dad's birthday today, and he had to go overseas for some business trip. Too bad.

the best.

Finally. I'm changing seats. No longer at the back of the class anymore. Great work. All thanks to Mrs Ho's height arrangement. Thank God.

FA Cup Round 3
Turf Moor
Sunday, January 06, 2008, 2pm

Burnley 0 - 2 Arsenal

By Richard Clarke

Goals from Eduardo and Nicklas Bendtner gave Arsenal safe passage to the FA Cup Fourth Round with a 2-0 win at Burnley on Sunday.

The Croatian completed a cool finish after only nine minutes, his sixth goal in his last four starts for the Club. The Championship side did have their moments in a highly-competitive first half but their challenge faded on the hour after Kyle Lafferty received a straight red card for a foul on Gilberto.

Fifteen minutes from time, Bendtner ended the argument when he danced around the keeper and slotted home.

Saturday had seen a number of FA Cup shocks but, if Burnley had pulled off a win this afternoon, it would have dominated the back pages for days.

That was never really on after Eduardo's strike. Arsenal were competent, composed and controlled as, once again, they avoided this perennial banana skin.

They march on. Wenger had said his side would be “a mixture” and he was good as his word. Only three were retained from the starting XI against West Ham on New Year’s Day. Emmanuel Eboue and Kolo Toure were playing their last game before going to African Nations Cup. Eduardo was asked to continue his striking success over the festive period.

The Croatian’s partner was Bendtner, who was back from suspension. Gilberto and Denilson formed an all-Brazilian central midfield while Armand Traore came in at left back for only his second start in this competition. Johan Djourou named on the bench for the first time since returning from his loan spell at Birmingham. He was joined there by two Carling Cup wannabees — Mark Randall, 18, and Henri Lansbury, 17.
Burnley had been struggling in the Championship under new manager Owen Coyle recently but Turf Moor was buzzing with anticipation for Arsenal’s first visit in over 30 years.

And the Clarets nearly took the lead with their opening attack in the fifth minute. Andy Gray escaped down the right-hand side and crossed to the far post where Lafferty arrived to power a header against the bar. The ball bounced down and Arsenal scrambled it away but the effort could only go down as a major let-off for the visitors.

Wenger’s men had hardly settled but, in the ninth minute, they snaffled the opening goal. It was not a clear-cut chance. Toure’s chipped pass forward sent Eduardo through but the bobbling ball would not come down and the 24-year-old was being pursued by a couple of Burnley defenders. However the Croatian is fast becoming the coolest finisher in the top flight. He took his time before tapping a trickling shot past Gabor Kiraly and just inside the upright

It was harsh on Burnley but you don’t always get what you deserve in FA Cup football. They responded with what you would expect — gusto. Gray threaded a shot through and then Robbie Blake thundered a drive over the bar. However you sensed that Arsenal were relatively comfortable with the situation. They expected the home side’s onslaught and were confident they could cope with it. They were also causing the home side some problems on the break.

In the 20th minute, Arsenal might have grabbed a second when Gilberto met Denilson’s corner with a stooping header. It deflected towards Graham Alexander at the near post and he scrambled the ball off the line.

Burnley continued to pressure but the visitors continued to enjoy the best opportunities. Most of them fell to Eboue on the right. He hammered the best chance over the bar midway through the half and then he nearly flicked the ball past Kiraly from close-range.

Eight minutes from the break, Traore dallied over his clearance at the far post and Wade Elliot harried him into a mistake. Chris McCann blazed his effort over the bar when he should have done better.
Kiraly saved Bendtner’s overhead kick just before half-time and, at the interval, Arsenal were content.
They should have all but completed the victory six minutes after the restart when Bendtner found Eduardo unmarked 12 yards out. It was a much more straightforward opportunity than the ones he had netted recently against Everton, West Ham and earlier this afternoon. However he steered an inexplicable shot a yard wide.

Burnley might have responded in the best fashion when Blake’s free-kick picked out the unmarked McCann at the far post but, wastefully, he nodded over the bar from six yards out.
The Clarets were perhaps exercising their last throw of the dice. Certainly Lafferty gambled and lost on the hour when he caught Gilberto on the knee with a nasty-looking challenge. Referee Alan Wiley had little option but to send off the Northern Irish international.

The dismissal only fuelled a match that was already starting to boil. Senderos nodded Elliot’s cross off the head of Gray as the Burnley striker threatened at the far post.

However, 15 minutes from time, Arsenal made the game safe. Eduardo exploited gaping holes in the Burnley defence to feed Bendtner. The Dane skipped around the keeper and tucked his shot past Kiraly.
Burnley were now a spent force. Two goals and one man down, they failed to mount a response.

Arsenal held on with comfort. But, in a straightforward afternoon, they had barely been out of their comfort zone from the moment Eduardo had given them the advantage.
If you're wondering why I haven't posted about S1OC, its because I haven't got all the pictures yet. So. Wait. In the meantime, good day.

Jamie Cullum - Mind Trick (Album: Catching Tales / 2005)

I missed the opportunity
to get you babe to stay with me.
Never thought, I'd regret the excuses that I've made
like a song, it will fade

If there's music in the night,
And it's really, really right,
It's the only thing I need.
It intoxicates your mind
All your troubles left behind
So come on and take my lead.
It's not just me who feels it
music plays a mind trick
watch me forget about missing you.

So i put my feelings out to dry
love, one day again,
I'll have to try.
falling out, making up
it seems such a silly game
why do I never gain?

If there's music in the night,
And it's really, really right,
It's the only thing I need.
it intoxicates your mind
All your troubles left behind
So come on and take my lead.
It's not just me who feels it
music plays a mind trick
watch me forget about missing you.

Na na na's

If there's music in the night,
And it's really, really right,
It's the only thing I need.
It intoxicates your mind
All your troubles left behind
So come on and take my lead.
Iit's not just me who feels it
music plays a mind trick
watch me forget about missing you.

Oh. Elaine removed the "Kenneth is so amusing he doesn't make any sense". Good on her part.
This is out to everyone. Please don't talk to me when you see me anywhere. I most likely will not respond because I have lost my voice thanks to the Secondary One Orientation Camp. 102'08!

Fall Out Boy - Car Crash Hearts (Thriller) (Album: Infinity On High / 2007)
[Mumblings of Pete Wentz/Patrick Stump]*
[Spoken by Jay-Z:]
Yeah,
What you critics said would never happen!
We dedicate this album to anybody
Who people said couldn't make it!
To the fans that held us down
'Til everybody came around!
Welcome!
Its here!
Last summer we took
Threes across the board
But by fall we were a cover story:
"Now in stores!"
Make us poster boys for your scene
But we are not making an acceptance speech
I found the safest place
To keep all our old mistakes
Every "dot com"'s refreshing
For a journal update
[Chorus] [x2]
So long live
The car crash hearts
cry on the couch
All the poets come to life
fix me in 45
I can take your problems away
With a nod and a wave
Of my hand'Cause that's just
The kind of boy that I am
the only thing I haven't done yet is die
and it's me and my plus one in the afterlife
crowds are won and lost and won again
but our hearts beat for the diehards
[Chorus] [x2]
Long live the car crash hearts
(Long live the car crash hearts)
Long live the car crash hearts
(Long live the car crash hearts)
[Chorus]
Hehe...
Woo!
Young,
F-O-B!
Let's go!

Keane - Nothing In My Way (Album: Under The Iron Sea / 2006)

A turning tide
Lovers at a great divide
why d'you laugh
When I know that you hurt inside?

And why'd you say
It's just another day, nothing in my way
I don't wanna go, I don't wanna stay
So there's nothing left to say?
And why'd you lie
When you wanna die, when you hurt inside
Don't know what you lie for anyway
Now there's nothing left to say

A tell-tale sign
You don't know where to draw the line

And why'd you say
It's just another day, nothing in my way
I don't wanna go, I don't wanna stay
So there's nothing left to say
And why'd you lie
When you wanna die, when you hurt inside
Don't know what you lie for anyway
Now there's nothing left to say

Well for a lonely soul, you're having such a nice time
For a lonely soul, you're having such a nice time
For a lonely soul, it seems to me that you're having such a nice time
You're having such a nice time

For a lonely soul, you're having such a nice time
For a lonely soul, you're having such a nice time
For a lonely soul, it seems to me that you're having such a nice time
You're having such a nice time

The Killers - Under The Gun (Album: Sawdust / 2007)

She's got her halo and wings
Hidden under his eyes
But she's an angel for sure
She just can't stop telling lies
But it's too late for his love
Already caught in a trap
His angel's kiss was a joke
And she is not coming back

Because heaven sends and heaven takes
Crashing cars in his brain
Keep him tied up to a dream
And only she can set him free
And then he says to me

Kill me now, kill me now, kill me now, kill me now
Kill me now, kill me now, kill me now, kill me now

Yeah, she's got a criminal mind
He's got a reason to pray
His life is under the gun
He's got to hold every day

Now he just wants to wake up
Yeah, just to prove it's a dream
Cause she's an angel for sure

But that remains to be seen
Because heaven sends and heaven takes
Crashing cars in his brain
Keep him tied up to a dream
And only she can set him free
And then he says to me

Kill me now, kill me now, kill me now, kill me now
Kill me now, kill me now, kill me now, kill me now

Stupid on the streets of London
James Dean in the rain
Without her it's not the same
The same, the same, but it's alright

Because heaven sends and heaven takes
Crashing cars in his brain
Keep him tied up to a dream
And only she can set him free
And then he says to me

Kill me now, kill me now, kill me now, kill me now
Kill me now, kill me now, kill me now, kill me now
Again and again

Maroon 5 - Not Falling Apart (Album: It Won't Be Soon Before Long / 2007)

Ooh…

Danced all night, slept all day
Careless with my heart again
Fearless when it comes to playing games

You don’t cry, you don’t care
Afraid to have a love affair
Is that your ghost or are you really there?

Now, I can’t walk, I can’t talk anymore
Since you walked out the door
And now I’m stuck living out that night again
I’m not falling apart

Ooh, oh

Weather on a sunny day
Time slows down; I wish you’d stay
Pass me by in crowded, dark hallways
Mmm

Try my hardest not to scream
I find my heart is growing weak
So leave your reasons on the bathroom sink

Now, I can’t walk, I can’t talk anymore

Since you walked out the door
nd' now I’m stuck living out that night again
I’m not falling apart

I heard you say you needed me
Now what’s the problem I can’t see
You destroyed me, I won’t fall apart again
I’m not falling apart

Take what you wanted
I will be just fine
You will be better off alone at night
Waiting and falling
Constantly calling out your name
Will it ever change?

Now, I can’t walk, I can’t talk anymore
Since you walked out the door
And now I’m stuck living out that night again
I’m not falling apart

I heard you say you needed me
Now what’s the problem I can’t see
You destroyed me, I won’t fall apart again
I’m not falling apart

Ohh, ooh
