Just The Way You Are -- Billy Joel

Don't go changing, to try and please me
You never let me down before
Don't imagine you're too familiar
And I don't see you anymore

I wouldn't leave you in times of trouble
We never could have come this far
I took the good times, I'll take the bad times
I'll take you just the way you are

Don't go trying some new fashion
Don't change the color of your hair
You always have my unspoken passion
Although I might not seem to care

I don't want clever conversation
I never want to work that hard
I just want someone that I can talk to
I want you just the way you are

I need to know that you will always be
The same old someone that I knew
What will it take 'till you believe in me
The way that I believe in you

I said I love you, and that's forever
And this I promise from the heart
I could not love you any better
I love you just the way you are

Help! My dad's car stinks, and by stinks I mean stink really badly -- It stinks of DURIANS! Over the weekend my dad went to his Malaysian friend's durian farm in JB and brought back a haul of around 50+ durians? x_x And today on my way to school I had to enter that dreadful car; it really gave me a headache and made me want to puke!

And the worse thing is that the stench won't go away for a really long time! Maybe I should invest on air freshener. Or those plum candies to stop me from puking because I probably would one morning. >.>

Dimming of the Day -- The Corrs

This old house is falling down around my ears
I'm drowning in the river of my tears
When all my will is gone you hold me sway
I need you at the dimming of the day

You pulled me like the moon pulls on the tide
You know just where I keep my better side

What days have come to keep us far apart
A broken promise or a broken heart
Now all the bonny birds have wheeled away
I need you at the dimming of the day

Come the night you're only what I want
Come the night you could be my confidant

I see you on the street in company
Why don't you come and ease your mind with me
I'm living for the night we steal away
I need you at the dimming of the day
I need you at the dimming of the day

Don't worry Boey Yang, this is just here because I like the song lah. I'm not that deep. -_-

I think I spent 2-3 hours just waiting and waiting. But it was worth it! (And I was entertained by Ne Zha Girl and the Butt Massager! (Gosh so exin; ignore that.))

For 10 minutes my mouth was agape.

For 10 minutes the sky dazzled.

For 10 minutes my eyes glowed.

For 10 minutes time stopped.

For 10 minutes life was great.

For 10 minutes everything was beautiful and perfect.

Thanks to everyone who put it together; you gave all the people who went down 10 minutes of wonder! (And I think the whole thing must've cost billions, huh! x) (Feel so honoured to have so much money spent on me! XD)) I wish I can go tomorrow too!

Nice or not? My aunts and I made this special dessert just for National Day today! ^^ It's agar-agar; half red half white. The red half is strawberry flavoured, and the white side is coconut. x) Then the crescent moon and stars we used cookie cutters to cut them out and fit them in. ^^

We know it's not that professional lah, haha... But it still looks quite cool, right...! XD

Oh and Kevin; this is how the flag should really look like. =P

P.S. Yay, I made it just in time before National Day was over!

JUST FOR TODAY I will try to live through this day only, and not tackle all my problems at once. I can do something for twelve hours that would appall me if I felt that I had to keep it up for a lifetime.

JUST FOR TODAY I will be happy. This assumes to be true what Abraham Lincoln said, that "Most folks are as happy as they make up their minds to be."

JUST FOR TODAY I will adjust myself to what it is, and not try to adjust everything to my own desires. I will take my "luck" as it comes, and fit myself to it.

JUST FOR TODAY I will try to strengthen my mind. I will study. I will learn something useful. I will not be a mental loafer. I will read something that requires effort, thought and concentration.

JUST FOR TODAY I will exercise my soul in three ways: I will do somebody a good turn, and not get found out: if anybody knows of it, it will not count. I will do at least two things I don't want to do- just for exercise. I will not show anyone that my feelings are hurt; they may be hurt, but today I will not show it.

JUST FOR TODAY I will be agreeable. I will look as well as I can, dress becomingly, keep my voice low, be courteous, criticize not one bit. I won't find fault with anything, nor try to improve or regulate anybody but myself.

JUST FOR TODAY I will have a program. I may not follow it exactly, but I will have it. I will save myself from two pests: hurry and indecision.

JUST FOR TODAY I will have a quiet half hour all by myself, and relax. During this half hour, sometime, I will try to get a better perspective of my life.

JUST FOR TODAY I will be unafraid. I will not be especially unafraid to enjoy what is beautiful, and to believe that as I give to the world, the world will give so to me.

And after all, it's JUST FOR TODAY.
