hullo everyone (aka maybe the 3 pple who read this) happy new year!
its 2006. feels surreal. like im in the FUTURE. weeeiirrd
any way we rang in the new year on a pretty low note. watching tv and bumming.
it was my 5th annv. w mel, bt we spent the day like any other day. going shopping and doing errands. which was pretty profound. cos it meant that we'd gone beyond celebrating once a year to recognising that there were many more years to come. hehe.
1st of jan, ate at Wild Rocket @ mt emily. luverly little place owned by ex lawyer turned chef willin Low. really nice chap who came out to chat with us for a bit. food was slightly above average but i was taken with the way the restaurant was managed, the location, and the guts it must have taken to quit the legal profession so young (he is young. maybe early 30s?)
good stuff.
anyway im glad i got to chat abit w Grace (*hi grace! wave!*) on sunday. i miss you. come back!
ok ive got wake up super early tomorrow to wake melvin up for breakfast at 720. eeps.
oh oh before i forget:
ausssssie aussie ausssieeeeeeeeee!
my sister is in australia, melbourne for 2 weeks
hannah and pamela are there for 2 weeks
chris is leaving on sunday for Perth, then sydney. i think
then my parents are going to australia to meet my sis
then emma is leaving for australia
then my brother is leaving (+plus my parents again+)for uni in sydney
then i think i might be gng down in may with my strawberry club pple.
ok now i really have to sleep. here's ending this frightful unstructured random and absolutely ridiculous entry with a song to match:
(ps its the song that fann wong sang at the countdown sky symphony thingy and it was HORRIBLE. but cannot blame lah seeing that faye wong did SUCH a bad job o writing it in the first place. ITS NASSSSTYYY):
pps: no typos. i cut and paste. and fann wong really sang it like that, bad grammar et al. HAHAH. i'm diggin' it.
Eyes On Me
Faye Wong
Whenever sang my songs
On the stage, on my own
Whenever sad my words
Wishing they would be heard
I saw you smiling at me
Was it real or just my fantasy
You'd always be there in the corner
Of this tiny little bar
My last night here for you
Same old songs, just once more
My last night here with you?
Maybe yes, maybe no
I kind of liked it your your way
How you shyly placed your eyes on me
h, did you ever know?
That I had mine on you
*Darling, so there you are
With that look on your face
As if you're never hurt
As if you're never down
Shall I be the one for you
Who pinches you softly but sure
If frown is shown then
I will know that you are no dreamer
So let me come to you
Close as I wanted to be
Close enough for me
To feel your heart beating fast
And stay there as I whisper
How I loved your peaceful eyes on me
Did you ever know
That I had mine on you
Darling, so share with me
Your love if you have enough
Your tears if you're holding back
Or pain if that's what it is
How can I let you know
I'm more than the dress and the voice
Just reach me out then
You will know that you're not dreaming
