I wish I were a vampire....

That thought struck me today... being a vampire seems pretty good in the emotion compartment. Devoid of much feelings, their faces show no emotions half the time. And they don't get affected by other pple's emotionless faces, why? All of them are the same anyway...

People have their rights to mood swings, no doubt about that. What erk me is how people can just be LIKE THAT as and when they want to... must be some mystery power that is apparently lacking in myself. So what if the person's mood swing back to normal again the next day? It becomes a vicious cycle...

What do you do when your loved one is in such a mood? For me, my answer used to be, I would just tolerate with it, tomorrow morning would be ok and the sun would come out and shine. But I wonder now, so what if the sun comes out and shines... what's the point? I never know what caused the storm in the first place. And I bet I would just explode, and never want to see the sun ever again...

Maybe at that time, it is ain't a bad idea to be a vampire after all...

Twilight Twilight...

The few times when I got crazy over movies were the Titanic, and R&J, which is really donkey years ago.

So now I have a new entry to my list : Twilight. Eventhough it was a 2008 movie, I only just watched it over the weekend. Back then, it was well-known to be a teeny movie from teeny stories, popular among teenage gers... So when I was watching it, I was just expecting it to be, well, teeny stuff...

Won't say it is very good, and yup it is teeny stuff, but darn it totally blew my mind off somehow. Maybe it was the story (I like such mystical stuff), maybe it was the soundtrack, maybe it was Edward, maybe it was the cool Cullun family, maybe it was cute Bella who reminded me of my couz... all these factors throw together, and I'm a total gone case... After watching the movie on Saturday, we went to the book store the very next day to get the whole saga, and yesterday saw me hunting down numerous cd shops for the soundtracks... So now I'm a proud owner of the twilight saga as well as the twilight soundtracks...

Who cares if it is teeny stuff... I'm delighted!

One of the nice songs on the soundtrack.

dejavu....

so why is it that i don't seem to wear skirts? someone asked me today, and it was like dejavu... a friend asked me that years ago too when i was in uni, before i came out to work... and i told him then that the only time he would see me in skirt will be during my graduation day....

it is true that recently i have not been wearing my skirts much...at least 6 mths? it is not about hiding legs either... if i wanna hide i won't be wearing shorts during weekend... if my job allows it, i won't mind wearing shorts to work everyday... at least it is more comfortable than jeans, and provides the extra security compared to skirts, and shorts definitely shows more legs than knee-length skirts.... but of course, that is not very appropriate...

the reasons why i'm blogging this is because, i myself am wondering why i have left my skirts gathering dusts in the wardrobe... because of the comfort zone created by my beloved jeans, pants and shorts? or just plainly the fact that i am too lazy to do ironing...

nonetheless, the question awakens something in my mind....making me remembered why i started wearing skirts after graduation day....

i should take out my skirts to wear soon, god knows how many are hanging there with the price tags still there, after all only we gers have the rights to skirts....

similar to what was said once in an episode of the sex and the city, gers have rights to their shoes... :)

Glen Hansard - Falling Slowly (Once)

heard this song today. eventhough I never watched this movie before, but somehow the song captured my heart....

I don't know you
But I want you
All the more for that
Words fall through me
And always fool me
And I can't react
And games that never amount
To more than they're meant
Will play themselves out

Take this sinking boat and point it home
We've still got time
Raise your hopeful voice you have a choice
You'll make it now

Falling slowly, eyes that know me
And I can't go back
Moods that take me and erase me
And I'm painted black
You have suffered enough
And warred with yourself
It's time that you won

Take this sinking boat and point it home
We've still got time
Raise your hopeful voice you had a choice
You've made it now

Falling slowly sing your melody
I'll sing along

The Mummers' Dance - Loreena Mckennitt

When in the spring time of the year
When the trees are crowned with leaves
When the ash and oak, and the birch and yew
Are dressed in ribbons fair

When the owls call the breathless moon
In the blue veil of the night
The shadows of the trees appear
Amidst the lantern light

We've been rambling all the night
And sometime of this day
Now returning back again
We bring a garland gay

Who will go down to those shady groves
And summon the shadows there
And tie a ribbon on those sheltering arms
In the springtime of the year

The songs of birds seem to fill the wood
That when the fiddler plays
All their voices can be heard
Long past their woodland days

We've been rambling all the night
And sometime of this day
Now returning back again
We bring a garland gay

And so they linked their hands and danced
Round in circles and in rows
And so the journey of the night descends
When all the shades are gone

"A garland gay we bring you here
And at your door we stand
It is a sprout well budded out
The work of our lord's hand"

We've been rambling all the night
And sometime of this day
Now returning back again
We bring a garland gay

Don't Give Up, by Peter Gabriel & Kate Bush
This song caught my attention because apparently Gregorian used it as well...

Sarah McLachlan - Answer

A beautiful song by sarah mclachlan, one that i never heard before till yesterday...

I will be the answer

At the end of the line

I will be there for you

While you take the time

In the burning of uncertainty

I will be your solid ground

I will hold the balance

If you can't look down

If it takes my whole life

I won't break, I won't bend

It will all be worth it

Worth it in the end

Cause I can only tell you what I know

That I need you in my life

When the stars have all gone out

You'll still be burning so bright

Cast me gently

Into morning

For the night has been unkind

Take me to a

Place so holy

That I can wash this from my mind

The memory of choosing not to fight

If it takes my whole life

I won't break, I won't bend

It will all be worth it

Worth it in the end

'Cause I can only tell you what I know

That I need you in my life

When the stars have all burned out

You'll still be burning so bright

Cast me gently

Into morning

For the night has been unkind
