Lyrics:
You think I'm pretty
Without any make-up on
You think I'm funny
When I tell the punch line wrong
I know you get me
So I'll let my walls come down, down
Before you met me
I was a wreck
But things were kinda heavy
You brought me to life
Now every February
You'll be my valentine, valentine
Let's go all the way tonight
No regrets, just love
We can dance until we die
You and I
We'll be young forever
You make me
Feel like
I'm living a Teenage Dream
The way you turn me on
I can't sleep
Let's runaway
And don't ever look back
Don't ever look back
My heart stops
When you look at me
Just one touch
Now baby I believe
This is real
So take a chance
And don't ever look back
Don't ever look back
We drove to Cali
And got drunk on the beach
Got a motel and
Built a fort out of sheets
I finally found you
My missing puzzle piece
I'm complete
Let's go all the way tonight
No regrets, just love
We can dance until we die
You and I
We'll be young forever
You make me
Feel like
I'm living a Teenage Dream
The way you turn me on
I can't sleep
Let's runaway
And don't ever look back
Don't ever look back
My heart stops
When you look at me
Just one touch
Now baby I believe
This is real
So take a chance
And don't ever look back
Don't ever look back
I might get your heart racing
In my skin-tight jeans
Be your teenage dream tonight
Let you put your hands on me
In my skin-tight jeans
Be your teenage dream tonight
You make me
Feel like
I'm living a Teenage Dream
The way you turn me on
I can't sleep
Let's runaway
And don't ever look back
Don't ever look back
My heart stops
When you look at me
Just one touch
Now baby I believe
This is real
So take a chance
And don't ever look back
Don't ever look back

Listen and Download:

Lyrics:
We were as one babe
For a moment in time
And it seemed everlasting
That you would always be mine
Now you want to be free
So I'm letting you fly
Cause I know in my heart babe
Our love will never die, No...
You'll always be a part of me
I'm a part of you indefinitely
Girl don't you know you can't escape me
Ooh darling cause you'll always be my baby
And we'll linger on
Time can't erase a feeling this strong
No way you're never gonna shake me
Ooh darling cause you'll always be my baby
I ain't gonna cry no
And I won't beg you to stay
If you're determined to leave girl
I will not stand in your way
But inevitably you'll be back again
Cause ya' know in your heart babe
Our love will never end No
You'll always be a part of me
I'm part of you indefinitely
Girl don't you know you can't escape me
Ooh darling cause you'll always be my baby
And we'll linger on
Time cant erase a feeling this strong
No way you're never gonna shake me
Ooh darling cause you'll always be my baby
I know that you'll be back girl
When your days and your nights get a little bit colder oooohhh
I know that, you'll be right back
Ooooh! baby believe me it's only a matter of time
You'll always be a part of me

Lelaki Idaman Poppy
Badan nya tinggi dan ramping. Berotot tetapi tidak kekar. Ia sempurna. Lelaki yang sangat sempurna. Parasnya bagaikan malaikat yang dikirim dari khayangan. Senyuman nya yang ramah menentramkan hati semua orang yang melihatnya.
Kadangkala saat aku melamunkan dirinya, aku berfikir perbuatan baik apa yang ia lakukan dikehidupan sebelum nya sehingga ia bisa terlahir se-sempurna ini.
Pasti susah baginya menemukan pendamping hidup yang sempurna seperti dirinya.
Aku penganggum nya. Melihatnya dari jauh ketika ia bermain basket di pagi hari di lapangan kecil di belakang rumah nya. Atau ketika ia duduk sendirian di sebuah bangku di lapangan itu di bawah pepohonan yang rindang di akhir pekan, sambil membaca buku komik konyol yang kadang kala membuat nya tertawa begitu rupawan.
Oh Tuhan, aku kadang harus menyadarkan diriku sendiri untuk turun dari imajinasi super tinggi yang berfikir kami akan hidup berdua dan bahagia selamanya.
---
Semalam ia berulang tahun. Ia tertawa sangat bahagia saat teman-teman nya datang ke mengejutkan nya di malam hari merayakan ulang tahun nya dengan membawa kue cake yang indah serta lilin-lilin kecil yang manis.
Kedua tanganku menempel di kaca jendela melihat pemandangan tersebut. Aku ingin turun kesana dan ikut merayakannya. Menjadi alasan tawa nya yang bahagia. Menemani nya bermain basket atau membaca komik.
Mungkin tahun depan aku bisa. Mungkin.
Setiap kali aku memikirkannya diriku yang tidak sempurna ini aku menjadi tidak bersemangat. Kadang kala ketika aku berjalan pagi di depan rumahnya bersama Sandy teman baikku. Ia sesekali tersenyum padaku dan oh ya tuhan kakiku menjadi lemas seketika.
---
Sandy yang cantik dan baik hati. Ia teman terbaikku seumur hidup. Tetapi kadang kala aku ngambek padanya. Terutama saat kami sedang berjalan pagi dan berhenti untuk mengambil nafas di dekat rumah lelaki itu. Ia lebih banyak berbicara dengan Sandy dari pada memperhatikanku. Aku sungguh cemburu. Sangat cemburu sehingga setiap habis berjalan pagi dan kembali ke rumah aku lebih banyak duduk diam tidak memperdulikan Sandy walaupun ia teman terbaikku.
---
Pagi ini kami baru siap berjalan, dan tetap saja lelaki yang sempurna itu lebih memperhatikan Sandy dari pada diriku! Mereka berbicang cukup lama soal kejutan ulang tahun lelaki itu semalam. Tentu saja Sandy tidak tau lelaki itu berulang tahun. Kenapa lelaki itu tidak lebih memperhatikanku? Padahal aku lebih tau soalnya dari pada Sandy. Aku lebih pantas menjadi pendampingnya. Walaupun tidak sempurna aku cukup manis serta putih, wangi dan perhatian.
---
Sandy yang baru saja siap melegakan dahaga di dapur tau aku mengacuhkannya lagi. Ia kemudian mendekat kepadaku dan bertanya. "Poppy ada apa?"
Aku tidak mengacuhkannya. Rasakan! Huh! Aku masih ngambek.
Sandy yang baik hati kemudian tersenyum dan mengelus kepalaku dengan lembut seperti biasanya dan berkata,"Yah sudah, ini Cat Food mu ya." Ia kemudian meninggalkanku.
Aku yang merasa seperti pemenang karena mengacuhkannya lalu mulai melahap dengan bahagia. Cat Food adalah makanan kesukaanku!
Setelah dipikir-pikir Sandy tidak terlalu buruk. Ia selalu tau apa yang ku suka kecuali soal Lelaki itu.
"Miaw!"

Hehehe, I got an inspiration last night while I was playing with my dogs and my persian cat on the terrace ^^''
Hahaha!!

If You Forget Me by Pablo Neruda
If You Forget Me:
I want you to know
one thing.
You know how this is:
if I look
at the crystal moon, at the red branch
of the slow autumn at my window,
if I touch
near the fire
the impalpable ash
or the wrinkled body of the log,
everything carries me to you,
as if everything that exists,
aromas, light, metals,
were little boats
that sail
toward those isles of yours that wait for me.
Well, now,
if little by little you stop loving me
I shall stop loving you little by little.
If suddenly
you forget me
do not look for me,
for I shall already have forgotten you.
If you think it long and mad,
the wind of banners
that passes through my life,
and you decide
to leave me at the shore
of the heart where I have roots,
remember
that on that day,
at that hour,
I shall lift my arms
and my roots will set off
to seek another land.
But
if each day,
each hour,
you feel that you are destined for me
with implacable sweetness,
if each day a flower
climbs up to your lips to seek me,
ah my love, ah my own,
in me all that fire is repeated,
in me nothing is extinguished or forgotten,
my love feeds on your love, beloved,
and as long as you live it will be in your arms
without leaving mine.
Pablo Neruda

3 Doors Down - Here Without You
Listen and Download:
HERE
Lyrics:
A hundred days have made me older
Since the last time that I saw your pretty face
A thousand lies have made me colder
And I don't think I can look at this the same
But all the miles that separate
Disappear now when I'm dreaming of your face
I'm here without you baby
But you're still on my lonely mind
I think about you baby
And I dream about you all the time
I'm here without you baby
But you're still with me in my dreams
And tonight it's only you and me
The miles just keep rollin'
As the people leave their way to say hello
I've heard this life is overrated
But I hope that it gets better as we go
I'm here without you baby
But you're still on my lonely mind
I think about you baby
And I dream about you all the time
I'm here without you baby
But you're still with me in my dreams
And tonight girl its only you and me
Everything I know, and anywhere I go
It gets hard but it wont take away my love
And when the last one falls
When it's all said and done
It gets hard but it wont take away my love
I'm here without you baby
But you're still on my lonely mind
I think about you baby
And I dream about you all the time
I'm here without you baby
But you're still with me in my dreams
And tonight girl its only you and me

Hatake Kakashi and His True Face
Kakashi Hatake is my favorite character in Naruto Manga (comic).
For a more formal article: HERE
If you're wondering what Naruto is, you probably have been living under a rock or something for these past years -,-''
Anyway, Kakashi "The Copy Ninja is a widely liked and character in the series. He's the teacher of Naruto. He's got this mysterious aura, cool, great personality, also very powerful, and yet got some flaws like lateness and terrible past. I like him, very interesting character!
He's the dude with white hair!
Omg, he's super cool ! and for the whole series the mangaka has never shown us his whole face! The lower half of his face is always covered with that damn ninja mask or his hand or blanket or book or something! It's ridiculously upsetting -,-'' cause he's like so mysterious.. maybe that's one of the character's appeal.
Even Naruto and his teammates often wonder about their teacher true face. Well, I am still confirmed that he has to be awesomely handsome because in one of the comic extra (omake), Kakashi was in a ramen house along with Naruto and his friends.
They were trying to find out what his real face look like. But when he is about to lowered his mask to eat, Naruto and his friends were distracted and by the time they were paying attention back to their teacher, he already finished eating his ramen and wearing back his Ninja Mask. But the waiter and waitress of the ramen restaurant looked awestruck. And Naruto and his friends Sakura and Sasuke just looked confused by it.
And this is the other extra when his summon dogs are trying to explain his real face.
Hahhaah! I thought I would finally be able to see his face!
Ah.. wish can see his true face !! *desperate*
The mangaka is such a tease! lol
Many fans of the manga, especially Kakashi's legion of fans are still looking forward to the day when the mangaka Mr Mashashi Kishimoto will reveal Kakashi's true face.

Another Celebration
This month is indeed very interesting :)
Just now I had a dinner with Amar, Dewi, Rosy and Eric at Trattoria yet again (seems like it's now decidedly my favourite dinner place *lol). Met Mullista, her boyfriend, Muzelin and their family when we entered. They are so close to each other! Such a family :)
Rosy kinda brought a cake with her, so sweet of her. I am not much of a cake person or anything but well, it's good for celebration I suppose.
They were kinda unable to join the one at Babura last time cause of that sad incident with Dewi's Mum *pray. Since they are her best friends it's only understandable that it might seemed insensitive at that time to come to my birthday dinner when Dewi was still in such a sad state and situation. Well, she doesn't seem as distraught now which is a good thing. I hope she will get more cheerful and cheerful as days goes by. I don't know what I'm gonna do in her situation but she's dealing with such strength. I need to learn that more from her.
--
Well, I am the good time, good food and togetherness kind of person. So, I enjoy myself very much when I have a good meal time with my friends.
We ordered this huge Special Pizza! Yep, Huge, Gigantic! Some meat and ham toppings. It's basically a combination of two kind of Pizzas. Very delicious and yummy!
And then there's a Creamy Tortellini "something" with ham?
Then there's the Creamy Spinach Tagliolini with Salmon, but I kinda didn't and forgot to take any picture of it since I always eat that one whenever I go there. hahaha!
The Waitress there who's always very friendly and helpful (serious), came around and served this complimentary food. It taste like cheesecake with strawberry jam on the top. Usually there is rarely any complimentary. Maybe cause of the birthday situation.
For the drinks we got healthy Juice: Apple, Pear and Watermelon. Eric the health conscious one from the group ordered something even more healthy, a Cold Aqua with Lemon slices -,-' very classy. Rosy rocked it with a glass of Mojito:
After we finished the meal, the waitress brought out the cake while singing happy birthday, and there's this HBD song too on the background!
I felt like little kid again for a while there. haha! The group of people at the table right behind us was starting to make some noise and laughed for a while! lol. Really crazy. It happened that someone was also having a birthday on their table. *cheers buddy
Full and satisfied I hope. We headed back home around 10 :)
Thanks God or Buddha or whatever creates the universe for letting me have such a ride. I am grateful. I hope everyone feel what I feel right now or better!
All the love to the universe and all my friends.

TGIF fellas!
Monday is a marathon full of classes to teach. But now Wednesday and Friday have started to feel like a marathon too ^^''
I have new classes to teach starting from this week.
On Wednesday it's 10.30 AM - 8.30 PM (O_o) This particular day feels like intensive labor work.
And Now, on every Friday I got a morning shift from 9 AM until 10.30 AM, break and continuing from 2 PM - 7 PM.
Awesome working hour! *sarcastic
hahahah!
Nevertheless, I do like the new 3 classes which are given to me. The students are young adults. Gotta tell you it is more enjoyable to teach students who choose to study themselves, than the ones who are forced to study :)
---
After finishing my job for Today, Dewi a good friend of mine fetched me and we went to have dinner at TONG's Soya Milk and Bean Curd. I kinda forget that she has to do vegetarian for 49 days after her Mum passed away 2 weeks ago (sort of their tradition). I ended up ordering a Fusilli Marinara and she ordered a corn soup. Well, had I remembered about it I would have ordered salad or something veggie to show solidarity *ashamed*
Then a Pitcher of Soya Milk :)
Cute Wood Rabbits
"kiss my bottom buddy" LOL!
We talked about some issues, since we haven't met for quite some time. Dewi has a very interesting personality. She's sometimes moody but she can express herself very well. Well, finished our dinner around 8.30 and headed to each others' home.
Thanks God It's Friday! Now I can chill and relax for 2 whole days :D

Papa's Birthday
Me and my Papa are kinda like having the same month for our birthday :D We both are September people.
Yesterday was finally his Birthday! Happy Birthday Papa!
Just FYI, my family rarely eat outside. It's like we're super homey and stuff. Usually for dinner, it's either my Mom cooks, or we just have a take away from some Chinese restaurant or any other restaurant that provides take away. The last resort, we basically just do that phone call for delivery, maybe Pizza or any other kinda of fast food.
Anyway, last night we went to Taipan Restaurant and had a tiny celebration in there. The whole family, including my one and only Grandma. No cake, no Happy Birthday song, just the rare and simple family dinner. My Mom jokingly said that it's not just because of my Papa's birthday, but also to celebrate mine, and the Mooncake festival (Mid-Autumn Festival). hahaha! She is so efficient -,-'
I feel so happy for my Papa and the food was nice. I was impressed with the Dessert! It's a Coconut Pudding, so nice >.<''
And I took one picture with my only and kick-ass younger sister: Sweet, love her X)
We finished the dinner around 8.30 and headed back to home sweet home :)
I love my family so much. Although sometimes they're a little bit weird and strange and makes me feel colorful emotions -,-' but they're really irreplaceable for me *huggies
---
Before I end this entry, I've got an awesome treat!
It's the new Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 1 Trailer!
Check this out:
Isn't it Awesome? It is, isn't it? Right? Right? hehehhe!
I've been a fan for a very long time! This is the last movie and they split it into 2 parts. I am so excited! It means these last ones are going to be more epic and detailed!
I can't wait to see Snape, Harry and everyone and everything :D
Ugh! can't wait >..<'

Yesterday was finally his Birthday! Happy Birthday Papa!
Just FYI, my family rarely eat outside. It's like we're super homey and stuff. Usually for dinner, it's either my Mom cooks, or we just have a take away from some Chinese restaurant or any other restaurant that provides take away. The last resort, we basically just do that phone call for delivery, maybe Pizza or any other kinda of fast food.

Bruno Mars - Just The Way You Are
Listen and Download:
HERE.
Lyrics:
Oh her eyes, her eyes
Make the stars look like they're not shining
Her hair, her hair
Falls perfectly without her trying
She's so beautiful
And I tell her every day
Yeah I know, I know
When I compliment her
She wont believe me
And its so, its so
Sad to think she don't see what I see
But every time she asks me do I look okay
I say
When I see your face
There's not a thing that I would change
Cause you're amazing
Just the way you are
And when you smile,
The whole world stops and stares for awhile
Cause girl you're amazing
Just the way you are
Her nails, her nails
I could kiss them all day if she'd let me
Her laugh, her laugh
She hates it but I think its so sexy
She's so beautiful
And I tell her every day
Oh you know, you know, you know
Id never ask you to change
If perfect is what you're searching for
Then just stay the same
So don't even bother asking
If you look okay
You know I say
When I see your face
There's not a thing that I would change
Cause you're amazing
Just the way you are
And when you smile,
The whole world stops and stares for awhile
Cause girl you're amazing
Just the way you are
The way you are
The way you are
Girl you're amazing
Just the way you are
When I see your face
There's not a thing that I would change
Cause you're amazing
Just the way you are
And when you smile,
The whole world stops and stares for awhile
Cause girl you're amazing
Just the way you are

Bruno Mars is my favourite singer this year.
His songs are all so good! The first time I listened to his song was when my friend Nike introduced me to his duet with Travis McCoy, "Billionaire" (Video).
Then I listened to "Nothin' On You" (Video) where he is singing it with B.o.B.
I was already insane with him, but then my other friend introduced me to "Just The Way You Are" and "Count on Me". I'm hooked! He's the best for me this year other than Lady Gaga -,-''
Just the Way You Are is so beautiful :) It's like every man and woman's dream to have someone to love them just the way they are ^^

Amusing Husband and Wife Poems
Poems written by a Fighting WIFE and HUSBAND
WIFE:
I wrote your name on sand it got washed.
I wrote your name in air, it was blown away.
Then I wrote your name on my heart and I got a Heart Attack.
HUSBAND:
God saw me hungry, he created Pizza.
He saw me thirsty, he created Pepsi.
He saw me in the dark, he created Light.
He saw me without problems, he created YOU.
WIFE:
Twinkle, twinkle little star
You should know what you are
And once you know what you are
Mental hospital is not so far.
HUSBAND:
The rain makes all things beautiful,
The grass and flowers too.
If rain makes all things beautiful,
Why doesn't it rain on you?
WIFE:
Roses are red; Violets are blue.
Monkeys like you should be kept in the zoo.
Don't feel so angry, you'll find me there too.
Not in cage but laughing at you.
-End-
LOL!!

Lifehouse - You and Me
Listen and Download:

Lyrics:
What day is it? And in what month?
This clock never seemed so alive
I can't keep up and I can't back down
I've been losing so much time
Cause it's you and me and all of the people with nothing to do
Nothing to lose
And it's you and me and all of the people
And I don't know why, I can't keep my eyes off of you
All of the things that I want to say just aren't coming out right
I'm tripping on words
You've got my head spinning
I don't know where to go from here
Cause it's you and me and all of the people with nothing to do
Nothing to prove
And it's you and me and all of the people
And I don't know why, I can't keep my eyes off of you
There's something about you now
I can't quite figure out
Everything she does is beautiful
Everything she does is right
Cause it's you and me and all of the people with nothing to do
Nothing to lose
And it's you and me and all of the people
And I don't know why, I can't keep my eyes off of you
and me and all of the people with nothing to do
Nothing to prove
And it's you and me and all of the people
And I don't know why, I can't keep my eyes off of you
What day is it?
And in what month?

A Rocket to The Moon - Like We Used To
Listen and Download:
HERE.
Lyrics:
I can feel her breath as she's sleeping next to me
Sharing pillows and cold feet
She can feel my heart
Fall asleep to it's beat
Under blankets and warm sheets
If only I could be in that bed again
If only it were me instead of him
Does he watch your favorite movies
Does he hold you when you cry
Does he let you tell him all your favorite parts
When you've seen it a million times
Does he sing to all your music
While you dance to "purple rain"
Does he do all these things like I used to
14 months and 7 days ago
Oh, I know you know how we felt that night
Just your skin against the window
Oh, you took it slow
And we both know
It should have been me inside that car
It should have been me instead of him
In the dark
Does he watch your favorite movies
Does he hold you when you cry
Does he let you tell him all your favorite parts
When you've seen it a million times
Does he sing all your music
While you dance to "purple rain"
Does he do all these things like I used to
I know love
(I'm a sucker for that feeling)
Happens all the Time, love
(Always end up feeling cheated)
You're on my mind, love
(Oh, darling I know I'm not needed)
And that happens all the time, love
Will he love you like I loved you
Will he tell you everyday
Will he make you feel invincible with every word he'll say
Will you promise if this one's right
Don't throw it all away
Can you do all these things
Will you do all these things like we used to
Oh, like we used to

Sweet and Sour
Yesterday was 15th.
It was around 7 PM.
My sweet little sister was so cute. She waited for me outside the classroom (on which I was teaching on) so she could give me a present before she had her own evening English class.
And when I reached home from work, I found my younger brother has fallen asleep in my room with a package of present on his side. He was such a sweet heart. But a sleepy head -,-'
I am feeling like I was the happiest Big sister ever :)
--
From home..
It was around 7.45.
I had the tiny2 official celebration for my birthday last night :)
I asked my friends to come and join me for a steamboat kind of dinner. I have been craving for Babura's Steamboat for so long *blush
It was a great night, too bad some of my friends couldn't make it.
A lot of thanks to:
My chio chio friends: Macgie, Natasha, Emily, Xiang Cin, Christine Sia and her boy friend Mr. Johnny :)
My Beleke's friends: Paupei, Cyncyn, Jejes and Jacelyn :)
and last but not least,
My good friends: Ashu and Dalviny.
It would not be a birthday at all if u guys didn't show up.
---
After the occasion, I went to meet up with Dewi, Eric, Rosy and Amar at Dewi's Mum Funeral.
Her Mommy has just passed away this last Sunday :(
Jejes and Jace also went there to shown their support to her.
I pray to God that she is given strength and faith through this :(
Dewi's so kind last night.
She asked everyone to come along to my car, and with the Tip-Top cake that Mac has given to me, she asked me to blow a candle and make a wish (but instead of candle we were using a match).
I didn't know how to feel.. I felt happy yet it also felt sad. It's sweet.. but also sour..
Anyway, Thank you Dewi for doing this and thanks Eric, Rosy and Amar too :)
That's mean double thanks to Jejes and Jace ^^
--
Well, Last night was surely a very memorable day.
For me.. it's a day full of compassion and kind care.

A Marriage
When I got home that night as my wife served dinner, I held her hand and said, I've got something to tell you. She sat down and ate quietly. Again I observed the hurt in her eyes.
Suddenly I didn't know how to open my mouth. But I had to let her know what I was thinking. I want a divorce. I raised the topic calmly.
She didn't seem to be annoyed by my words, instead she asked me softly, why?
I avoided her question. This made her angry. She threw away the chopsticks and shouted at me, you are not a man! That night, we didn't talk to each other. She was weeping. I knew she wanted to find out what had happened to our marriage. But I could hardly give her a satisfactory answer; she had lost my heart to Jane. I didn't love her anymore. I just pitied her!
With a deep sense of guilt, I drafted a divorce agreement which stated that she could own our house, our car, and 30% stake of my company.
She glanced at it and then tore it into pieces. The woman who had spent ten years of her life with me had become a stranger. I felt sorry for her wasted time, resources and energy but I could not take back what I had said for I loved Jane so dearly. Finally she cried loudly in front of me, which was what I had expected to see. To me her cry was actually a kind of release. The idea of divorce which had obsessed me for several weeks seemed to be firmer and clearer now.
The next day, I came back home very late and found her writing something at the table. I didn't have supper but went straight to sleep and fell asleep very fast because I was tired after an eventful day with Jane.
When I woke up, she was still there at the table writing. I just did not care so I turned over and was asleep again.
In the morning she presented her divorce conditions: she didn't want anything from me, but needed a month's notice before the divorce. She requested that in that one month we both struggle to live as normal a life as possible. Her reasons were simple: our son had his exams in a month's time and she didn't want to disrupt him with our broken marriage.
This was agreeable to me. But she had something more, she asked me to recall how I had carried her into out bridal room on our wedding day.
She requested that every day for the month's duration I carry her out of our bedroom to the front door ever morning. I thought she was going crazy. Just to make our last days together bearable I accepted her odd request.
I told Jane about my wife's divorce conditions. . She laughed loudly and thought it was absurd. No matter what tricks she applies, she has to face the divorce, she said scornfully.
My wife and I hadn't had any body contact since my divorce intention was explicitly expressed. So when I carried her out on the first day, we both appeared clumsy. Our son clapped behind us, daddy is holding mommy in his arms. His words brought me a sense of pain. From the bedroom to the sitting room, then to the door, I walked over ten meters with her in my arms. She closed her eyes and said softly; don't tell our son about the divorce. I nodded, feeling somewhat upset. I put her down outside the door. She went to wait for the bus to work. I drove alone to the office.
On the second day, both of us acted much more easily. She leaned on my chest. I could smell the fragrance of her blouse. I realized that I hadn't looked at this woman carefully for a long time. I realized she was not young any more. There were fine wrinkles on her face, her hair was graying! Our marriage had taken its toll on her. For a minute I wondered what I had done to her.
On the fourth day, when I lifted her up, I felt a sense of intimacy returning. This was the woman who had given ten years of her life to me.
On the fifth and sixth day, I realized that our sense of intimacy was growing again. I didn't tell Jane about this. It became easier to carry her as the month slipped by. Perhaps the everyday workout made me stronger.
She was choosing what to wear one morning. She tried on quite a few dresses but could not find a suitable one. Then she sighed, all my dresses have grown bigger. I suddenly realized that she had grown so thin, that was the reason why I could carry her more easily.
Suddenly it hit me... she had buried so much pain and bitterness in her heart. Subconsciously I reached out and touched her head.
Our son came in at the moment and said, Dad, it's time to carry mom out. To him, seeing his father carrying his mother out had become an essential part of his life. My wife gestured to our son to come closer and hugged him tightly. I turned my face away because I was afraid I might change my mind at this last minute. I then held her in my arms, walking from the bedroom, through the sitting room, to the hallway. Her hand surrounded my neck softly and naturally. I held her body tightly; it was just like our wedding day.
But her much lighter weight made me sad. On the last day, when I held her in my arms I could hardly move a step. Our son had gone to school. I held her tightly and said, I hadn't noticed that our life lacked intimacy.
I drove to office.... jumped out of the car swiftly without locking the door. I was afraid any delay would make me change my mind...I walked upstairs. Jane opened the door and I said to her, Sorry, Jane, I do not want the divorce anymore.
She looked at me, astonished, and then touched my forehead. Do you have a fever? She said. I moved her hand off my head. Sorry, Jane, I said, I won't divorce. My marriage life was boring probably because she and I didn't value the details of our lives, not because we didn't love each other anymore. Now I realize that since I carried her into my home on our wedding day I am supposed to hold her until death do us apart.
Jane seemed to suddenly wake up. She gave me a loud slap and then slammed the door and burst into tears. I walked downstairs and drove away.
At the floral shop on the way, I ordered a bouquet of flowers for my wife. The salesgirl asked me what to write on the card. I smiled and wrote, I'll carry you out every morning until death do us apart.
That evening I arrived home, flowers in my hands, a smile on my face, I run up stairs, only to find my wife in the bed - dead. My wife had been fighting CANCER for months and I was so busy with Jane to even notice. She knew that she would die soon and she wanted to save me from the whatever negative reaction from our son, in case we push thru with the divorce.-- At least, in the eyes of our son--- I'm a loving husband....
The small details of your lives are what really matter in a relationship. It is not the mansion, the car, property, the money in the bank. These create an environment conducive for happiness but cannot give happiness in themselves. So find time to be your spouse's friend and do those little things for each other that build intimacy. Do have a real happy marriage!
If you don't share this, nothing will happen to you.
If you do, you just might save a marriage. Many of life's failures are people who did not realize how close they were to success when they gave up.

On the fourth day, when I lifted her up, I felt a sense of intimacy returning. This was the woman who had given ten years of her life to me.
On the fifth and sixth day, I realized that our sense of intimacy was growing again. I didn't tell Jane about this. It became easier to carry her as the month slipped by. Perhaps the everyday workout made me stronger.
She was choosing what to wear one morning. She tried on quite a few dresses but could not find a suitable one. Then she sighed, all my dresses have grown bigger. I suddenly realized that she had grown so thin, that was the reason why I could carry her more easily.
Suddenly it hit me... she had buried so much pain and bitterness in her heart. Subconsciously I reached out and touched her head.
Our son came in at the moment and said, Dad, it's time to carry mom out. To him, seeing his father carrying his mother out had become an essential part of his life. My wife gestured to our son to come closer and hugged him tightly. I turned my face away because I was afraid I might change my mind at this last minute. I then held her in my arms, walking from the bedroom, through the sitting room, to the hallway. Her hand surrounded my neck softly and naturally. I held her body tightly; it was just like our wedding day.
But her much lighter weight made me sad. On the last day, when I held her in my arms I could hardly move a step. Our son had gone to school. I held her tightly and said, I hadn't noticed that our life lacked intimacy.
I drove to office.... jumped out of the car swiftly without locking the door. I was afraid any delay would make me change my mind...I walked upstairs. Jane opened the door and I said to her, Sorry, Jane, I do not want the divorce anymore.
She looked at me, astonished, and then touched my forehead. Do you have a fever? She said. I moved her hand off my head. Sorry, Jane, I said, I won't divorce. My marriage life was boring probably because she and I didn't value the details of our lives, not because we didn't love each other anymore. Now I realize that since I carried her into my home on our wedding day I am supposed to hold her until death do us apart.
Jane seemed to suddenly wake up. She gave me a loud slap and then slammed the door and burst into tears. I walked downstairs and drove away.
At the floral shop on the way, I ordered a bouquet of flowers for my wife. The salesgirl asked me what to write on the card. I smiled and wrote, I'll carry you out every morning until death do us apart.
That evening I arrived home, flowers in my hands, a smile on my face, I run up stairs, only to find my wife in the bed - dead. My wife had been fighting CANCER for months and I was so busy with Jane to even notice. She knew that she would die soon and she wanted to save me from the whatever negative reaction from our son, in case we push thru with the divorce.-- At least, in the eyes of our son--- I'm a loving husband....
The small details of your lives are what really matter in a relationship. It is not the mansion, the car, property, the money in the bank. These create an environment conducive for happiness but cannot give happiness in themselves. So find time to be your spouse's friend and do those little things for each other that build intimacy. Do have a real happy marriage!
If you don't share this, nothing will happen to you.
If you do, you just might save a marriage. Many of life's failures are people who did not realize how close they were to success when they gave up.

Remember
Today...
Before you start thinking of saying rude remarks to people.
Remember about a person who's dumb and can't speak.
Before you complain about the taste of your food.
Remember about a person who has nothing to eat.
Before you complaint about your partner.
Remember about someone who cries asking for a life partner.
Today...
Before you whine about your life.
Remember about a person who die young and quickly.
Before you complain about your children.
Remember about a person who's infertile and can't have a child.
Before you start quarreling because of your untidy house, and no one to clean
or sweep the floor.
Remember about the homeless who has to live on the street.
Before you start complaining because you have to drive a long drive.
Remember about a person who has to walk to reach the same distance.
And when you are tired and moaning about your job.
Remember those jobless, invalids and those who are seeking to have your job.
Before you start pointing finger or blame others.
Remember that nobody is perfect and never make a mistake and we will face God's judgement.
And when all the life and its burden seems like it will take you down.
Put on a smile on your face and pronounce your gratitude to God because you are still alive and existing in this world.

Have a good life.

Lyrics:
I'm lost without you
Can't help myself
How does it feel?
To know that I love ya baby
I'm lost without you
Can't help myself
How does it feel?
To know that I love ya baby
Tell me how you love me more

You wanna touch yourself when you see me
Tell me how you love my body
And how I make you feel baby
You wanna roll with me
You wanna hold with me
You wanna stay warm and get out of the cold with me
I just love to hear you say it

Tiny Early Celebration
Yihaa!
Dung dung dung..
One of my good friend Dolly is gonna fly out of Medan next week. Oh well.. Since I don't wanna miss her for my birthday, I asked everyone out for a little early birthday celebration! But unfortunately, It turn out that not many people can come *cry :(
Natasha was about to come! buttt, She was having family occasion with her Dad! Chris was having some family stuff too -,-'' Duh! Mac's Mum got a birthday! Happy Birthday Aunty! ^^ Eric is still at Genting Highlands having Holiday with his family *cry out loud
Well.. at least it's not on my "real" birthday kan? *sniff
So, anyway, proceed! I tagged those who could come (Dolly! Josclind, and Dewi) to one of my favorite restaurant in Medan. Trattoria. It's an Italian Franchise and it's super delicioso as always ^^
Check Out my Eyes! Dewi my dear dear friend who's cute as always, applied some Eye Liner on them. I looked like those rock singers! hahaha!
Dolly brought a Riesling 2007 White Wine for the tiny celebration. It's unnecessary but oh well it's very welcome on the other hand.. I've heard of somewhere that Riesling wine is a good a good combination with food. Just a little basic knowledge for you dear readers ^^
For the food, we ordered a pan of new kind of Pizza? With huge loafs of ham.
Then some Spinach Salmon Pasta (my favorite). Josclind ordered this weird looking pasta -,-'' Cause the name is hard to memorize she said that the waitress had gave her a hint to just called it Italian Dumplings.
We finished the food and the wine around 10 something and headed back.
I know it's just tiny celebration before the real date, but I was having a really good time :)
Thank you guys for letting me had your evenings.

David Archuletta - Touch My Hand
Listen and Download:
HERE.
Lyric:
Saw you from a distance
Saw you from the stage
Something 'bout the look in your eyes
Something 'bout your beautiful face
In a sea of people
There is only you
I never knew what the song was about
But suddenly now I do
Trying to reach out to you, touch my hand
Reach out as far as you can
Only me, only you and the band
Trying to reach out to you, touch my hand
Can't let the music stop
Can't let this feeling end
'Cause if I do, it'll all be over
I'll never see you again
Can't let the music stop
Until I touch your hand
'Cause if I do, it'll all be over
I'll never get the chance again
I'll never get the chance again
I'll never get the chance again
I see the sparkle of a million flashlights
A wonder wall of stars
But the one that's shining out so bright
Is the one right where you are
Trying to reach out to you, touch my hand
Reach out as far as you can
Only me, only you and the band
Trying to reach out to you, touch my hand
Can't let the music stop
Can't let this feeling end
'Cause if I do, it'll all be over
I'll never see you again
Can't let the music stop
Until I touch your hand
'Cause if I do, it'll all be over
I'll never get the chance again
I'll never get the chance again
Saw you from the distance
Saw you from the stage
Something about the look in your eyes
Something about your beautiful face
Can't let the music stop
Can't let this feeling end
'Cause if I do, it'll all be over
I'll never see you again
Can't let the music stop
Until I touch your hand
'Cause if I do, it'll all be over
I'll never get the chance again
I'll never get the chance again
(Reach out to you, touch my hand)
I'll never get the chance again
(Reach out as far as you can)
I'll never get the chance again
(Only me, only you and the band)
Trying to reach out to you, touch my hand, yeah

It was Idul Fitri Day!
Guess what?!
Yesterday was finally the Idul Fitri day!
It's already the second day of my holiday. Yuhu!! It has started from 8th and will end on 14th.! Still many free days to come for me. hehe.
Anyway, Idul Fitri is the day where Muslims celebrate their winning after they have done fasting for 1 month (Ramadan). Most of the time, they will return to their hometown or village to visit their family and forgive each other for the wrong they've done to each other all year. Idul Fitri usually identical with eating Ketupat.
So, Medan City which is like most part of Indonesia have a majority of muslim people. So, since most of the population are all gone and have a Mudik (leaving to visit family back at kampoeng or hometown). The road seems very blank! Like.. wow.. not much traffic. But, the Plaza were all still crowded.
Most eating place and shops were close. But there were some restaurants and cafe still open. Maybe the owners are smart enough, think ahead of the game, and lucky them, they were packed!
***
I was waking up so late, around 12 or 1 PM. hehe! ^^ Since it's holiday! I'd rather enjoy my time right :) I then took a bath and chat for a while with my family. After that then I went out with my good friends, Dewi and Rosy *smile2
The first plaza we went to was Sun Plaza. Yep! It's the Plaza where every Medanese go to, because simply it's the only Plaza in Medan with a 21 Cinema, Sogo, International Culinary and Patisseries outlets and a huge Food Court (it's my personal theory though).
Rosy, God blessed her has already asked her younger sister to bought movie tickets for us. Dewi whose crazy about Shihlin (Taiwan Street Snacks) insisted on a "take away" and we secretly hide it inside Rosy's Bag.
Well, we went to watch Sammy's Adventure - The Secret Passage in 3D. It was awesome, about a sea turtle that travel the sea. Dewi was so crazy about the turtle. Then I tease her about Turtle Soup (Pik Bak in Hokkien). hahaha -,- Aigooo! so cute and entertaining lah the movie.
After finishing the movie, I think around 6 or something we went and queue for some Sour Sally's Yogurt. Me and Dewi try this new flavor "Strawberry and Melon" olala.. it was good.
***
Then from there we drove to Swiss-Belhotel. It was just around two blocks or something from Sun Plaza. Well, at first we were thinking about trying out the new restaurant on 27th floor / the rooftop of the hotel (The Edge), but too bad the outdoor was already reserved by some people for a family gathering or whatever. So, we ended up 1 floor lower to The View (26th floor). Well, it suits the name. The view was very nice. Maybe cause there aren't a lot of skyscrapers yet in Medan City.
We ordered a Pitcher of Heineken and a Pan of thin Meat Pizza. Considering the interior and the atmosphere, I can say that the food wasn't very expensive.
Along the while, we spent the evening talking and chatting about some matters.
Dewi was very cute like her usual self, she likes to share a lot of things and ask for advices. She is a very dear friend for me. I can share with her a lot too and ask for advice. If not then I just blabber whatever and she would just ignore me or laugh cause for my chattiness.
Rosy on the other hand is very cool. She doesn't talk much but a good match for Dewi cause she can give good advices.
We left The View around 10 PM and headed home.
The Pizza was delicious, the beer was okay. I don't normally consume alcohol but it's good once in a while.
This is the best Ramadan after a long time...
Good Friends, Good View, Good Day :)
I am leaving the blog for now, maybe will post one of my favorite song later ;)
Wish everyone no matter from what ethnicity or race are having a great Idul Fitri Holiday :)

Geisha - Jika Cinta Dia
Listen and Download:
HERE.
Lyric:
Terlampau sering kau buang air mataku
Repeat * 2x
English Translation:
It's been too often you wasted away my tears
You never know how deep my love is
There's not a lot of things I want, don't you do it again
Hurting me at will
I'm not a human that doesn't think
You have done it so many times to me
Reff:
If you love her be honest with me
Leave me here alone without your smile
If you love her I'll try to understand
You've broken my heart so many times
You've gone to her, I never knew
You leave me whenever I needed you
Love isn't like this as far as I know
But I've became weak because of my love for you
*
If you love her be honest with me
Leave me here alone without your smile
If you love her I'll try to understand
Maybe you are not the true love in my Life...
Repeat * 2x
-End-
Whenever I listen to this song it really touches my heart in a melancholy kind of way and sad .
I have made the English translation but it's more touching if you're able to understand Indonesian.
The song is about asking someone to just be with the other person whom they love more.
xoxo,
M.

Lyric:
Terlampau sering kau buang air mataku
Tak pernah kau tahu dalamnya rasa cintaku
Tak banyak inginku jangan kau ulangi
Menyakiti aku sesuka kelakuanmu
Ku bukan manusia yang tidak berpikir
Berulang kali kau lakukan itu padaku
Reff:
Jika cinta dia jujurlah padaku
Tinggalkan aku disini tanpa senyumanmu
Jika cinta dia ku coba mengerti
Teramat sering kau membuat patah hatiku..
Kau datang padanya tak pernah kutahu
Kau tinggalkan aku disaat ku butuhkan mu
Cinta tak begini selama kutahu
Tetapi ku lemah karena cintaku padamu
*
Jika cinta dia jujurlah padaku
Tinggalkan aku disini tanpa senyumanmu
Jika cinta dia ku coba mengerti
Mungkin kau bukan cinta sejati dihidupku
Tak banyak inginku jangan kau ulangi
Menyakiti aku sesuka kelakuanmu
Ku bukan manusia yang tidak berpikir
Berulang kali kau lakukan itu padaku
Reff:
Jika cinta dia jujurlah padaku
Tinggalkan aku disini tanpa senyumanmu
Jika cinta dia ku coba mengerti
Teramat sering kau membuat patah hatiku..
Kau datang padanya tak pernah kutahu
Kau tinggalkan aku disaat ku butuhkan mu
Cinta tak begini selama kutahu
Tetapi ku lemah karena cintaku padamu
*
Jika cinta dia jujurlah padaku
Tinggalkan aku disini tanpa senyumanmu
Jika cinta dia ku coba mengerti
Mungkin kau bukan cinta sejati dihidupku
English Translation:
It's been too often you wasted away my tears
You never know how deep my love is
There's not a lot of things I want, don't you do it again
Hurting me at will
I'm not a human that doesn't think
You have done it so many times to me
Reff:
If you love her be honest with me
Leave me here alone without your smile
If you love her I'll try to understand
You've broken my heart so many times
You've gone to her, I never knew
You leave me whenever I needed you
Love isn't like this as far as I know
But I've became weak because of my love for you
*
If you love her be honest with me
Leave me here alone without your smile
If you love her I'll try to understand
Repeat * 2x
-End-
Whenever I listen to this song it really touches my heart in a melancholy kind of way and sad .
I have made the English translation but it's more touching if you're able to understand Indonesian.
The song is about asking someone to just be with the other person whom they love more.

1st Weekend of September
Hmm :))
(Saturday)
I had a very lovely dinner last night at Bakerzin. It's quite a nice restaurant in Medan City. It's a Pâtisserie restaurant but they also served selections of full set meals. Heard that the owners of Bakerzine also own Sushi-Tei (Japanese Restaurant) and Bel Mondo (Western Restaurant).
If that's true then, honestly I think they are really doing a great job with these places!
The three restaurant I mentioned above are always crowded. Simply Impressive.
Anyway, I was with some of my good friends last night and I was having such a lovely time.
After we had our dinner, Me and Dolly were talking about some business prospects over a piece of chocolate cake called Sumatra and a glass of Iced Cappuccino (Dolly was having a Chamomile Hot Tea if I'm not mistaken). Well, seriously we're not gonna start business anytime soon! hahha! But it was a good brainstorming and discussion! These kind of conversation makes you actually think about stuffs! Talking about Business prospects or investments methods, talking about people's character, life events, artistic hobbies, the movies..
I prefer these kind of talks rather than just gossiping about other people's businesses! Which for me is really such a waste of time and energy. Even-though I am a good listener, I really don't like gossiping -,-'' Really.. it's just not my thing. I whine a lot actually to my siblings or people who are close to me, but gossiping.. Just say I just try to keep it at a minimum portion from my side.
When we were discussing this fun topic, Dewi and Jilly were busy with their own Blackberry -,-'' Chatting with God knows who! hahaha! Macgie and Josclind were busy with Mac's camera.
Mac took some cute pictures of us last night ^^ She's really got talent that girl!
Hmm, When you're such a single lady what's better way to spent a good Saturday night if not with some good friends right?
Good friends, Good food and Good Conversations. Ahh :)

(Sunday)
This morning around 11 AM I went to Brastagi Pasar Buah, The one in Gatot Subroto!
OMG! Damn crowded! I was just there to do some errands for my Mum! Do you know how long did I queue for just some tender chicken legs, 2 carton of milk and a bunch of vegetables?? Almost half an hour!
Then after dropping the grocery's bag safely at home, and put those vegetables in the refrigerator I went and had my lunch at.... the Vegetarian Restaurant at Jalan Perak! The one that was recommended by Wenxi! I still have no idea what the restaurant's name is. I was looking for the name sign but it's not there. Not anywhere..
For now, let's just called it the Jalan Perak Vegetarian Restaurant! haha!
I was suppose to go there with my friends Jacelyn and Jessica Jejez. But seems they were having other stuffs to attend to. In the end, I tagged Eric along to accompany me having a veggie lunch.
I was doing my research! With Wenxi last time, we had a Tom-Yum Steamboat and Cheese Rice (literally Fried Rice with cheese topping).
This time! I ordered a Kimchi Steamboat and a big bowl of Wak Fen Noodle (Kwey Tiaw Noodle with Egg Sauce?) and also an additional of a Tom-Yum Steamboat.
We were very full and satisfied.
The amount of food we had.. I think Eric must be worried with his healthy diet!
After we paid the bill, I bid goodbye to Eric and drove home to collect my gym's clothing and fetched Edward, my younger brother.
Me and Ed went to Tiara Gym together this evening. I'm usually not joyful going to the Gym on such a happy Sunday, but I felt motivated and guilty with the amount of food I consumed at the Veggie restaurant! ahhaha! You can say I do the gym just to shove away the guilt! hahhaa! Ed is more of a gym person than I am. He goes to the gym routinely even just to do the Cardio exercise.
From the gym, we head straight to Sun Plaza and have dinner with Marlisa, my younger sister at Sunday Cafe. Lisa was in such a cloudy mood that finally I was the one who had to finished the Chicken Steak! T_T huhuhu!
Can you imagine the amount of Calorie I've had in just a day?
To sum it all up, this is just a good weekend to start the month! -,-''
P.S. I am being sarcastic.

9 Deadly Words Used by Women
- Fine
This is the word women use to end an argument when they are right and you need to shut up. - Five Minutes
If she is getting dressed, this means a half an hour. Five minutes is only five minutes of you have just been given five more minutes to watch the game before helping around the house. - Nothing
This is the calm before the storm. This means something, and you should be on your toes. Arguments that begin with nothing usually end in fine. - Go Ahead
This is a dare, not permission. Don’t do it! - Loud Sigh
This is actually a word, but is a non-verbal statement often misunderstood by men. A loud sigh means she thinks you are an idiot and wonders why she is wasting her time standing here and arguing with you about nothing. (Refer back to #3 for the meaning of nothing). - That’s Okay
This is one of the most dangerous statements a woman can make to a man. That’s okay means she wants to think long and hard before deciding how and when you will pay for your mistake. - Thanks
A woman is thanking you, do not question, or faint. Just say you’re welcome. (I want to add in a clause here – This is true, unless she says ‘Thanks a Lot’ – that is PURE sarcasm and she is not thanking you at all. DO NOT say ‘you’re welcome’. That will bring on a ‘whatever’). - Whatever
It’s a woman’s way of saying F - YOU! - Don’t worry about it, I got it
Another dangerous statement, meaning this is something that a woman has told a man to do several times, but is now doing it herself.
This will later result in a man asking ‘What’s wrong?’ For the woman’s response refer to #3.
I found this in here.
I am a woman myself. I think there are some familiar points... hahaha!

Going Back to The Classroom Life
Waow, waow..
It's been a couple of month since I stirred back to my once left aside Academic career.
Well.. In this new term I have been given 5 form classes. Means, sort of like I have to responsible for these classes with their report cards and the students' progress. There are other teachers teaching the class though :)
Other than the form classes there are 8 regular classes. There are 13 classes altogether.
You can say my schedule are quite packed as a part timer! Not that I'm complaining since I'm being paid hourly. haha!
Anyway, although honestly the salary sucks considering the school is an Institution. I find myself quite enjoying the job cause it makes me interact a lot with people (the students) and all the while I can also study my English.
One of the things that makes me quite happy for now is that the students filled me with joy, and their guts just bring the child within me wants to come out to the surface.
Just today I found myself laughing silly in the classroom when one of my students who maybe got too much sugar before class was giggling hysterically without reason.
In children we can see God's real gift. Their innocence (sometimes not so innocence) just shines. These children eyes haven't filled with real life's problems and conflicts. Their minds are still pure i think...
Well, life will look less problematic now if everyone can sometimes look through kids' eyes, won't it? Sometimes we ourselves can learn a lot from these little creatures..
All the Love in the world.
