You take me as I am
Into your new scarred hands
and when I run so far away
you always call me back again
into your open arms
not matter what ive done
amazing grace has found me here
because of what you've done, for me

Bleahhh. My iPod has scratches on it's screen already. Emo. haha. I shouldn't have procrastinated to get a screen protecter but I only wanted to buy it from ifrogz.com. Like sad can, I just bought my iPod in May I think. Argh, forget it. I'll buy my ifrogz casing next month.

Oh wait, I just got onto their site. Check this link out if you got a 4th Gen iPod.
Free iPod 4th Gen Casing I'm not kidding! Enter the code that's in the link, and you only pay for shipping, which is US$5. How cool is that! This would mean you get a Wrap (which covers the body), then the band (covers the sides of the iPod), then there's the screen (which is for the click wheel, but depends on the design you choose; whether or not it includes the screen protector). Damn. I think I'll purchase it when I get home. I'm thinking of this one.

Arghhh. I want it~... Oh by the way, they've got some for iPod Nano (1st Gen) and some of iPod Mini's too. But the mini promotion ends tonight, 27.09.07.

Tuesday today. Starting a new book again. The forth in as many days. Yikes. I'm going through the books Vani lent me too fast. Wayyy to fast. If this continues, I'll be done with the final book by the day after. Hopefully not. Nothing much this week, just a lot of writing. And I can't start writing because the events are not over yet. So yeah.

Had a sleepover at Gracie's place. It's been very nice to speak to her. I feel that when I talk to her, she truly understand what I'm talking about. Which is nice. =)

hmm, I got to get to the army supplies store later to get bootlaces. Guess that's the only interesting part of the day for me at least since there's nothing else to do. I may start writing some nonsensical short stuff again, but it will never see the light of day. haha.

Cherrio. Now back to my book.

I've been listening to Corrinne May's latest album, Beautiful Seed since I came into the office this morning. I've looped it 3 times already, but I'm not bored of it. Lovely lyrics, melodies, I reckon I can just go listening to it for quite awhile.

This week was filled with very very good food times. Ma Maison, Astons, Banana Leaf Apolo and Pasta Fresca da Salvatore. This week cannot eat like that already. Madness I tell you. Paella, Ribs, Fish Head Curry, Seafood Soup in Tomato Based Stock, etc. Arghhhhh. = )

One of my favorite songs off the album. On The Side of Me.

"I'm not the easiest person to love,
I'm often the one who lets things go unresolved.
Yet you choose to be on the side of me, on the side of me.
Yeah you choose to be, on the side of me, on the side of me.

I'm not too proud of some things I've done in my life.
Skeletons in my closet are too big for me to hide.
Yet you choose to be on the side of me, on the side of me.
Blessed charity you're on the side of me, on the side of me.

Chorus.
Cause everyone needs a friend to hold.
When it's cold outside and there's no place to go
Yeah, everyone needs a friend to hold.
All alone i cried, there was no place to go.
I remember when nobody cared but you.

I'm not the easiest person to love,
but you, you opened your heart to show me what I'm worth.
Cause you choose to be, on the side of me, on the side of me.
What a mystery, you're on the side of me, on the side of me."

I'll post another one tomorrow. Called Scars.

I will never forgive myself if it breaks apart because of my foolishness.

It's breaking apart, but I want to mend it.

And I hope you give me the chance to mend it.

Because it means a lot to me.

Sorry is all I can say.

Have you ever felt the first real breath that you've have taken after weeks of brooding, thinking and mulling. Well, I have and it feels FECKING GOOD! I can tell you that much. No more tightness in my heart, no more wallowing. It feels great.

I ended up going bowling after work with YS and Robbie. haha. Robbie says he'll buy anything for me if I can get ten pin 10s in one game! And make sure to tell him first to bet, only then with the winnings can I purchase anything. If only it was as easy as talking. The most I got was 6 in a game, and that was previously when my ball entry was slightly more flat then now! haha.

After bowling, I ended up talking to Sam who was waiting for her boyfriend to finish bowling league. And ended up talking a lot of things with her. She's really nice to talk to really, though other people used to tell me that she's quite stuck up and all. But I don't feel so leh. She helped me to see a lot of things from a different point of view, which I very much appreciate. Oh not only her, Gus too.

It was quite pleasant to have what used to be normal days. My normal days were all erased when I entered Singtel to work. Stupid place.

A lot of things are running through my head (what's new there?). Makes me realise that I've got a lot to learn and grow into. Number one being that I should never take things or make things personal. Suppose it makes you stop thinking too much and letting your mind wander. I shan't do that. *nods head* yeap.

I learnt a new word yesterday. Craptacular. whee. so many new words to learn.

-edited- last post retracted. have calmed down and back to normal.
