Expression, Actions, Words
Hmm..WoW November is ending which means 2007 is gonna end soon, a brand New Year awaits for all of us! I can already see the beauty and sweet surprises this new year will bring…hence no matter what I’m going to make this December a fun and enjoyable one that puts a wonderful full stop to 2007!
Actually I still don’t have the Christmas or holiday mood yet.. It is raining cats and dogs now. What a rainy November (I specially play “Shi Yi Yue” while typing this)! While brainstorming for the activities,
Shall start with a song first, to overcome the rainy mood and get the ‘soothing’ atmosphere:
Two very different people,
too scared to get along,
Till two hearts beat together,
underneath one sun,
One very special moment,
can turn a destiny,
And what some would say,
could never change,
has changed for you and me,
Cause it's all,
It's all in the way,
you look through your eyes,
and when all is said and done,
All of the fear and all of the lies are,
not hard to overcome,
It's all in the way you look at it,
that makes you strong,
We were two, (we were two)
now we are one,
We are two very different people,
so much to overcome,
So why care for one another,
when there's so much to be done,
Cause sometimes it's necessary,
just look how far we've come,
You could say my friend that,
it's the end,
or a new tale has begun,
Cause it's all,
It's all in the way,
you look through your eyes,
and when all is said and done,
All of the fear
and all of the lies are, (the lies)
not hard to overcome, (no no)
It's all in the way you look at it,
that makes you strong,
We were two, (we were two)
now we are one,
One moment in time,
is all the time we need,
Just to make a difference,
to make it better for you and for me,
If you just believe,
oh yeah..........
Just open your eyes,
Cause it's all in the way you,
look through your eyes, (your eyes)
and when all is said and done (oh yeah)
All of the fear and all of the lies are,
not hard to overcome,
It's all in the way you look at it,
that makes you strong,
We were two, (we were two)
now we are one,
oh yeah, oh yeah,
We were two,
now we are one......
Great! The recent happenings and dramas just inspired me to write something. A story? Perhaps some Romance in the Winter?? What you think? Haha hope it doesn’t sound too ‘Korean’…Well that has always been my forte, isn’t it? (*heh heh those who know me since ancient time you know what I’m talking about ^^)
A new discovery – Lip-smacking Breakfast
It is tasty. By just adding some new ingredients can make simple bread like pizza! Anyone wants to try? All good things ought to be shared. It's free hahaha...
Met a friend and got Inspired to fight hard for our future. Though we all have different motivation but the attitude is the same. Face the music! Never give up!
Now here’s something to light up your day ~ (hope the dad won’t mind me to share)
Some time back, Uncle Randy taught Meredith about helium balloons - how these are the ones which can stay in the air or float away because they are helium filled. To Meredith's credit, she was giving him her undivided attention.
Last Saturday, we went to a few places (the McDonalds birthday party was one of them) and Meredith was given a pink balloon (not the helium one). That evening, we met Uncle Randy again (actually to kind of celebrate his birthday by doing what most Singaporeans do - eat). After dinner, we took a short walk to Borders and that was where Uncle Randy decided to ask Meredith...
Uncle Randy: Ern See, is this a helium balloon?
Meredith: No...
Uncle Randy: (smiling and looking smugly at Meredith's parents, elated that she remembers what he taught her) Well done!!!
Meredith: (turning back to see Uncle Randy) Its a PINK balloon. 
Uncle Randy: ...........
Finally let me share this brilliant song with you, nice and sweet. Chance upon while browsing through some classic hits (Note the beat and different voices):
Day after day
Time pass away
N' I just can't get you off my mind
Nobody knows
I hide it inside
I keep on searching but I can't find
The courage to show
To letting you know
I've never felt so much love before
And once again I'm thinking about
Taking the easy way out
CHORUS
But if I let you go
I will never know
What my life would be
Holding you close to me
Will I ever see
You smiling back at me (oh yeah)
How will I know
If I let you go
Night after night
I hear myself say
Why can't this feeling just fade away
There's no one like you (no one like you)
You speak to my heart (speak to my heart)
Its such a shame we're worlds apart
I'm too shy to ask
I'm too proud to lose
But sooner or later I gotta choose
And once again I'm thinking about
Taking the easy way out
CHORUS
if I let you go (ooh baby)
Once again I'm think about
Taking the easy way out

Bitter Battle
Feeling really dreamy…today’s battle was by far the most “shiok” ever! Drum Rocks. Every beat just make your heart screaming for more…highly addictive that there’s not enough! Just love the drums.
All the contestants were terrific! Highly competitive! Somehow their voices touch my heart…feeling kinda emotional…
Loss for words now. Can’t seem to use any word to describe the feel…maybe is a kind of rare enjoyment. Like after all the “high”, “low” is about to come… wishing the night never ends and there will be no tomorrow.
“Good night, good night! Parting is such sweet sorrow,That I shall say good night till it be morrow.” – William Shakespeare
Hence I really cherish this night, happy to see those friends and seeing the smiles on one another. Then singing together. I couldn’t find a 'right' song to sing. All I could do was to scream silently as loud as my heart desires.
Don’t know why but the sound of drums keep beating in my mind now…guess I really miss drumming…perhaps any wound will be numb through the hitting and rhythm. The greater (louder) the dose, the better the effect.
Time never cease, feeling really tired but still want to add some last note before sleeping. Because tomorrow will be different. Everything starts with tomorrow. (And it is an hour plus tomorrow already) Arrg! But I’m too weak to go on now…
Prepare to face the tomorrow… Labels: Current Affair, Entertainment

Kidz's World
This is hilarious! Hope the mom won’t mind me to share with you guys.
Extract…
me: ern see, can you massage for mummy?
mer: ern see take oil...mummy lie down here on the green pillow....
me: ok, dun put so much oil ok
mer: ern see put the oil in the eye, wait oil come out from the eye then you cannot see and then you become blind!
me: papa!!!!!!!
Meredith retreats to her usual pile of pillows, smiling and giggling away and awaiting the arrival of papa to the rescue of the traumatised mummy.
~
A typical wind down routine we have is to read, sing actions songs, tumble, tickle and snuggle on bed and sometimes it can get a bit violent and some people will get hurt...usually the parents.
Yesterday, Papa was the victim. After kena boxed in the nose, after which the aggressor covered papa's face with a blanket, leaving him to groan in pain and for the assaulter's conscience to awaken and return to apologise. As usual, she will come to mummy and asks, "why papa do like that?"
I told her papa is in pain and told her to go over and apologise but she refused. After some time, she was still asking why is papa covering his face (papa was secretly taking the chance to sleep!) and saying "papa is not feeling well?". i said why dun she try to help papa get well since she is Doctor Tung. she said she can't so i suggested for her to pray. Surprisingly she agreed! Here it goes...
Dear Jesus, i pray you help papa not feeling well...you help him get well soon...his nose pain...ern see leg make him pain...and help mummy sleep well tonight...and no dreams (mummy cannot rest well whenever she dreams in the night)....and ern see also sleep well....(papa grabbed my hand at this point)...God make the sun, moon and stars and fish and everything ...and God made you (all lines from one of her books on creation)....help ern see sleep well...(mummy n papa controlling very hard)......amen.Sorry but there were a quite few more things but papa and mummy cannot remember anymore because we were all trying hard not to laugh out loud. And mind you, all this time, she had her eyes closed.
Papa 's face still covered. i asked her what should she do now....
ern see: "Give papa medicine?"
mummy: "Ern See give papa medicine?"
ern see: "Give papa 'chut chut' ( this is the sound we make for her whenever she has to take medication as we would use a syringe to prevent accidental loss of the medicine). mummy go and get the medicine...the pink one(paracetemol) and the black one (mucoslovan), take two..."
At that, we decided to call off the act because i do not want to make a trip to the kitchen!
~
Story OneWe were sitting at the bus stop and opposite us is West Spring sec sch. A black car was parked outside the school gate and i think they went inside the sch to deliver fruits via the side gate.
Ern See: What is the car doing there?
Mummy: That is because today is sunday and the school is not opened. The car cannot go in because the gate is locked. So the car owner park there and go in by the other side.
Ern See: The car owner go in because he want to "ng ng"? (da bian / big business in the toilet)
Story TwoAt PoPo's House...
Ern See: Mummy, you look sad...
Mummy: Mummy is not sad...
Ern See: Mummy, you look sad! (meaning "show me a sad face")
Mummy: ok..mummy look sad (mummy invert the mouth and show a sad face)
Ern See: (ern see pout her mouth and frown, in a questioning tone) Who did that?!
Then mummy could not continue the act and burst out laughing!Seems like ern see has surpassed mummy in acting skills!

Drama ~ Act x Love Scenes x
This is the scenes (in parts) which I like, good plot nice characters. Pretty interesting too…
The part when she realized she fell in love with this man (the nerdy innocent good man) but this man was already in love with this girl (cutie naïve kind lady). She did all she could to help the man (even to help find the girl), and I’m sure the audience already how she feels without me describing her emotional state…
Through the journey to fulfill her purpose in life, she was tortured by this “love” and man whom his entire mind was always the girl. Then jump to the scene where she had a “fake” marriage with this man to help the girl kept her identity. I still remember the expression on her face – the pain and deeply hurt look
Meanwhile the other her (the totally emotionless, hard hearted self) was trying to break the marriage. After which a fight ensued between those other characters. In this story, she was the invincible if not the top lady fighter. A beautiful cold hearted girl.
Now the climax was the part where this self came to live in reality while the “human” her went into her dream. She could find all her happiness and desires in this dreamland.
So this “reality” self continued to fulfill her role in her "real" life while the other did what she really wanted in her dream.
To add on, actually there was this guy who was secretly in love with her all the while. He was determined to help her “recover”. He even went into her dream (he only loved the so call real her) but failed umpteen times. Now this other self began to fall in love with him when he did all he could to “save” her out of her dream. She was touched and struggled between hate and love.
There was this conversation with him before she died, something like, “You brought me into the world of love, you made me fall in love with you. I don’t understand why must you destroy someone who loves you but keep the one who doesn’t like you. HAVE YOU EVER LOVE ME……(no answer) I can finally feel heartache, really excruciating. Why didn’t you tell me love is so painful?...you’ll never see her (meaning the real her) again!......
[This whole scene totally rocks!]
Somehow she disappeared then the real her came back and she did fell in love with this guy later. Together they fought the last fierce battles. (They are the ultimate destined lovers)
That’s about I can remember so far. The point is I like the part where this unfeeling girl can even experience love and starts to change…and running between dream and reality is so cool!
Somehow can’t distinguish now…

Excitement!
Morning! Haha it is morning since “yesterday” for me already…because I did not sleep! Can feel the quiet peaceful morning, and the warm sunshine shinning brightly --> which means it’s a great day!
And a tired and nervous Swallow lying on its nest, heart beating so fast it may drop out anytime. Nevertheless happily playing around…
Sickness miraculous gets better though the throat still hurts a little. Pray it would not be worse later. Ooo..anticipation ~
Arrg..painful throat…
Pain everywhere…
