In the dark

In the dark, I wasn’t sure whose tears those were anymore.

I can be as destructive as I want, history has a brilliant record of such. Sometimes much more so, even.

Go away. Go away.

Self-protection is such strange, little thing.

It is easy not to be happy, cos you won’t ever wonder if happiness has an expiry date of its own. When you are happy, you are constantly thinking of ways of maintaining it, and wondering when it will slip you by.

Once bitten, twice shy, thrice….fool, a fucking one that is.

Sometimes I think some people are just not capable of being happy, cos insecurities are just too much of a bitch to handle.

As for those who think they can make a difference, who are they kidding?

Let me in
to see you in the morning light
to get me on and all along the tears they come
see all come
I want you to believe in life
but I get the strangest feeling that you’ve gone away
will you find out who you are too late to change?
I wish I could be
every little thing you wanted
all the time
I wish I could be
every little thing you wanted
all the time
some times
lift me up
just lift me up don’t make a sound
and let me hold you up before you hit the Ground
see all come
you say you’re all right
but I get the strangest feeling
that you’ve gone away- you’ve gone away
and will you find out who you are too late to change?
I wish I could be
every little thing you wanted
all the time
I wish I could be
every little thing you wanted
all the time
some times
Don’t give me up
don’t give me up tonight
or soon nothing will be right at all
salvation
will you find out who you are too late to change?
I wish I could be
every little thing you wanted

A woman aching

Like the woman obsessed, my weekend revolved around my latest obsession.

People who know me would tell you how much I resent console gaming, simply because I suck badly at it.

But on Friday, I stopped by at Effy’s simply because I wanted to play guitar hero. My virgin attempt at Arvind’s sucked so badly that I refused to give myself a second chance of potentially embarrassing myself in front of others again.

So, this was going to be the first time I played since half a year ago.

I couldn’t stop cursing, and it was easy to distract Effy when she played against me with a certain taboo topic, and it was the only chance my EASY could win her MEDIUM.

I was hooked.

And then, we played mahjong till 4am, before I made my way back home.

The next day, I could feel my left arm aching ever so slightly, and my fingers were a little stiff.

Daniel picked me up from home to head over to Wenmei’s, where I was assigned the role of jerking the balloon pump off.

By now, I could feel both my arms evening out as the ache took over my right arm.

And then, Mr Koh decided to set up the Wii. OMG! My virgin attempt at wii!!!

Since I am now blogging from blogger before I cut and paste onto wordpress(fuck the hassle!), I shall post pictures! Whee!

With Eileen! Love that girl!

Birthday boy with the wife who planned for the surprise party! I hung up the balloons behind them! Of course, I was the hand behind the job that pumped them up.

I have no idea why I look so auntie here, but this is me with the babes!

Birthday boy with his X-rated birthday present. He even shot a glance towards his parents to make sure they weren’t looking!

We people!

Lihui and I acting cute. Lihui is back from Shanghai! For good!

I was careful not to be photographed while playing the Wii for obvious reasons. Haha. The boxing game was my favourite, and by the end of the session, I could feel my back, neck, arms, everywhere(!!!!) aching!!

We played Saboteur, and we were the first-timers!

The game never ended cos of the intrusion of 2 disgusting cockroaches, one of which stoned to death, and another suffered a merciless stampede from one of the chaps.

He is sooooooo sooooooo cute and smelt so nice! 9 months old baby boy.

Uma, who must be suffering from heartache now that Italians are out of Euro. I feel ya sista.

Pornqueen alert!

We played card games till late, and the non-drinker in me means I had it easy with green-tea as my forfeit.

After rounds of card games with the girlies, I suddenly thought fondly of the guitar hero, and promptly made my way over though it was past midnight.

I rocked to Paint it black(which someone always say it reminds him of me) and Barracuda! I am a rock chick! Of course, it was a torture to those playing mahjong as I brutally murdered the classics.

And I could even indulge in a little of my wifey’s mahjong game, before the thunder struck and I made a mad dash home in the midst of “Xi” wind.

Hahaha, I was like telling myself I better not get myself into an accident, or the very pantung Effy would definitely attribute it to the fact that I didn’t finish my wind.

But I guess the piercing cold wind and heavy downpour was bad luck itself, and I was so worried that I wrapped my frail little body round my bag and the wii so they wouldn’t get drenched. Thank God it was only for a short distance, and I reached home safely(I was more worried about being struck by lightning).

Cosily slept in, and spent Sunday out with baby, and she is so cute these days as she would pull the adults’ hands to make them dance with her.

But when I woke up, I couldn’t quite move as I felt all the tensions in my muscles.

I couldn’t even carry my baby, and had to leave her in the pram or let her walk by herself.

Though I was holding her tight when she was sleeping. I was quite sure I couldn’t feel my arms thereafter.

But, it didn’t stop me from dropping by Wenmei’s place to pick up the Wii adaptor, and head home for more boxing and bowling.

From the virgin who was laughed by the chaps, I managed to finish the game with 202 points(which set a new notveryhigh record)! Woohoo!

So I only have myself to blame when I woke up today with worse bodyaches, and could even feel my butt cheeks aching.
