Coming home to an armful of university letters, tuition problems and a thousand responsibilities wasn't the greatest feeling. But well, sometimes, all you need are friends, a couple of movies and great music to make you feel better.

I love the way you say good morning



If you were falling, then I would catch you
You need a light, I'd find a match

Cause I love the way you say good morning
And you take me the way I am

If you are chilly, here take my sweater
Your head is aching, I'll make it better

Cause I love the way you call me baby
And you take me the way I am

I'd buy you Rogaine when you start losing all your hair
Sew on patches to all you tear

Cause I love you more than I could ever promise
And you take me the way I am
You take me the way I am
You take me the way I am



The rap part is kinda corny(still cute!), but I loved the original in the second half. Inspiring! The likes of Feist, KT Tunstall and a Fine Frenzy all rolled into one.

and you dont remember.

Its just like him,
to wander off like this.
You leave but you do not leave,
my lips are stained with your kiss,
the ghost of your hand
in the small of my back.

I am well off without you,
but i only say that
to make myself feel better.

What has been happening this week in a list. List, because i need to practise my note-taking skills for further you know, notes-taking.

1. Shanna showed me this incredible bunch of tee-shirts of zazzle.com that sells aussome jason mraz merch. Although it wasnt the best time, i couldnt help but check them out pre-chemistry paper.

S$73, $35 dollars shipping?!



Oooh i like this one too, but i dont dance[i just quoted HSM, tyvm. how disturbing.] Although you an still pretty much see the girl's bra cups undergarments, its still pretty sweet! Microphone tees are cute too.

2. Emilia has been over three times this week to study and to prevent me from knocking out. And laughing over paramore videos. Pigging out on famous amos cookies and what not. Good times.

3. Paramore lost out best rock video to Linkin Park's shadow of the day. ARE YOU KIDDING ME?! Although crush3 wasn't the best video/song they've done, it shouldnt have been linkin park. Give me some foo fighters anyday man.

4. Hayley's hair looked humongous at the VMAs. And josh actually looked pretty hot :) I mean, the shirt he was wearing wasn't too flattering on his chest reason, which was a pretty good thing. With the cleavage line and all! WAHAH.

5. PRELIMS SO FAR. HORRIBLE. I don't think i've ever been this ill-prepared for any kinda major exams, its been nerve-wrecking. I'm been burning midnight oil! And not getting anything back in return.

6. Oh im flunking a math and chemistry Goodbye world, hello 30 points for L1R5.

7. The Hush sound's touring with augustana, two of the best bands in the world. Yes i know, Sweet and Low just came out on radio, was shocked as hell when i heard it too. Maybe its just another 'Boston' fever, but till then i'll be singing along to that hit XP

8. I just thrashed Sarah G at minesweepers online game TWICE. who owns who man?! Sheesh getting kicks out of pathetic MSN games, we should be ashamed of ourselves.

9. IPOD-CHROMATIC IS OUT. it is fabulous.



16GB, $348. go check it out at apple.com.sg. I love the red/orange/green/purple. But the Cassic is 120GB and the same price. decisions decisions.

10. Victor W. is in singapore with two other world-class bassists next friday, and are performing at the esplanade. I dont know much about bass-playing, but you must know who he is. Its like Larry Carlton/Santana/Joe Satrini of electric guitar or dave weckl for drums, and Victr Wooden for bass. So its esplanade with Nick[who is quite a fanatic] and maybe ainsley next friday. YAY.

11. WHAT ON EARTH ARE WE DOING ON MONDAY?? someone tell me, anyone.

12. slept over at shanna's[sorry this is an edit since last night] on a friday night doing Bio MCQ and my Longman Physics text. I feel absolutely pathetic, but after all i have to get like FULL marks for my MCQ if i want to secure a good point. So here we are, 'cramming' for MCQ papers, yay.

13. Moving into the new room has been fineee so far. Except that there is currently nothing on the walls and it all looks very spartan. A few cans of paint and one or two paintbrushes later oughta change things!

14. Yesterday i asked shanna what was that process wherein gaseous exchange occurs in a plant because i had a momentary mind blank, and she said 'Ummm. Transextion.'

Go figure. [the right answer btw, is transpiration, people who actually care.]

15. Ton of New CDs to put in! A few tegan and sara records, Feist and a Fine Frenzy. I need Motion City Soundtrack! The song exhange with sarah yesterday was aussome, thanks a mil. SARAH G LIKES THE JONAS BROTHERS. sarah don't go there! Apparently they are ripping off collaborating with McFly. Who everyone is now currently quite insane about right now, whose fault that is i do not know.But sarah will always be the number one mcfly fan jah? Since primary school days XP

well this jonas brothers fever and debate sure is heating up here.

Now with the weekend. What to do, i wonder
