FLY AWAY FROM HERE
by Aerosmith
Gotta find a way
Yeah, I can't wait another day
And nothin' gonna change
If we stay around here
Gotta do what it takes
Cause it's all in our hands
We all make mistakes, yeah
But it's never to late to start again
Take another breath
And say another prayer
Then fly away from here
Anywhere
Yeah, I don't care
We'll just fly away from here
Our hopes and dreams are out there somewhere
Won't let time pass us by
We'll just fly
If this life
Isn't hard enough
It ain't no nevermind
You got me by your side
And anytime you want
Yeah, we can catch a train and find a better place
Yeah, cause we won't have nothin' or no one keep gettin' us down
Maybe you and I
Could pack our bags and hit the sky
Then fly away from here
Anywhere
Yeah, I don't care
We'll just fly away from here
Our hopes and dreams are out there somewhere
Won't let time pass us by
We'll just fly
Didn't you see your blue sky now
You could have a better ride now
Open your eyes
Cause no one here can better or stop us
They can try but we won't let them
No way
Maybe you and I
Could pack our bags and say goodbye
Then fly away from here
Anywhere
Honey, I don't care
We'll just fly away from here
Our hope and dreams are out there somewhere
Fly away from here
Yeah, anywhere
Honey, I don't, I don't, I don't care
We'll just fly away

Dreamer. Fighter. Sleeper. Wanderer. Idealist. Realist. Imperfect Human Being.
R A N D O M
because I so totally am
ONE Owning a cafe/beach pub is my biggest dream
TWO Wanderlustic soul. A life without geographical transition would depress me tremendously.
THREE A Happy Drunk
FOUR Hate activities that require sun exposure. So I exercise only at evenings/nights.
FIVE Tend to keep my room tidy when I live alone but it's extremely untidy when I'm living with someone.
SIX Can do a mean swing. The playground sort. Watch me fly.
SEVEN 12-hour sleep days are ideal for me
EIGHT Do not leave me with a pair of scissors, I'll start snipping hairs
NINE Really wanna travel to N.America, S.America, Russia and Africa
TEN Closet escapist
ELEVEN Hypersensitive to body language (to a point of reading too much)
TWELVE Don't be surprised to see me smiling to myself, I often conjure laughable scenarios in my head
THIRTEEN The word "fuck" is like "shit" & "damn" to me. Is it even vulgar?
FOURTEEN Eats hash browns with maple syrup, fries with ice-cream & curry sauce with everything (you should follow me to Mc D sometimes)
FIFTEEN Cooks awesome. I should cook more. But I don't. Except when living alone.
LUSTS & MUSTS
because enough ain't always good enough

Nice pair of booties

n“And in the end, it's not the years in your life that count. It's the life in your years.” - Abraham LincolnHappy 23rd Birthday to Myself!!!
I can't imagine how
fast life passes me by
after the age of
21...and suddenly I'm
23. I used to dread aging so fast, but I've learnt that there are many perks in aging too. One can age, but
aging gracefully is a
skill to be acquired. And I sure hope I inherit that skill!
It's my
23rd year spending my birthday with no special someone, but I am truly grateful and blessed to be surrounded by my
best pals and my loving mum/sisters who never failed to be there for me. I
received some great gifts from them too! I treasure practical gifts and am
never a cuddly toys kinda person, so thanks mum for "buying" me the anticipated
driving license and holland/germany trip, thanks Mitch for the much needed
nike sports pants,
thanks sh, sy and pw for the gift card,
thanks Mav for the coveted
clinque eye cream,

thanks
best friend no. 1 for the
nike mini sports singlet that I've been eyeing for some time,

and
best friend no. 2 for the everlast canvas shoes that I liked on impulse. Tee hee... ;p
I started the day by going for my usual gym sessions in the morning, and was taken aback by the counter staff wishing me Happy B'day... as I've almost forgotten about it and took quite some time to process the greeting. Afterwards, best friend no.1 and I headed to Marina square to meet best friend no.2.
We then had dinner at Azabu Sabo:
Best Friend no.1's dinner choice


Best friend no.2's dinner choice


Tucking in...
My dinner choice: curry beef chick cutlet rice...looks more appetizing than their's right?!


I do not have violent tendencies...the spoon broke on me cos' the cutlet's too hard!


The finished product...
We watched "Superbad" after dinner:

I don't know why I always end up watching this genre of movies...isit b'cos I enjoy lame jokes too much?
The night was still young, so we went around taking pictures near the Esplanade:


A soliditary lamp I came across...I think it depicts loneliness...

Brings back old memories when I used to play in the band

I'm supposed to be "holding" the monument behind me.


Merlion

10 years of solid friendship and counting...
Lame photo series:
I proceeded to take some lame photos but notice there was never one with me doing the direct lame act because I refuse to look ugly in pictures! I only play the director part and am happy enough to be behind the scenes...tee hee hee ;p

Best friend no.1 would so totally kill me if she knew I posted this photo! Hahahahaha...


Full from "drinking" too much Merlion's water, she spits some out...

Utterly bored and utterly excited:

Utterly excited and utterly bored:

A display of my in fact non-existent violent tendencies:




Dr. Tan SM of cell bio lect mentioned that after 25, collagen would be rapidly lost from a woman's skin. I am 2 years from there...very near leh! Am getting worried already... so I hope the remaining 2 years won't fly by so fast.
Birthday wish for this year: as per usual, good results in school and good health for all...and and and... ... ...the last one's a secret!
