Coming soon...

A new post will be coming up soon...

*cue elevator music...*

Something to ponder about for the moment:

Foolish
Never am subtle,
I say what I mean,
Jump to conclusions,
Foolish I am,

Stoked the fire,
Of the humble resting being,
Feeling the burning sensation,
Etching deeper into the heart,

Dipped a toe into the ocean,
Tripped over my actions,
Heading head-first into oblivion,
Subtlety is not my speciality,

Laid it out plain and simple,
Aches abound, cure not found,
Dust blinds the eyes,
Smog smothers the lungs,

Highly unlikely will this succeed,
Seeds of resentment already planted,
Heart pounds quicker, senses tingle,
Is this what they call the inexplicable?

Never am subtle,
I say what I mean,
Jump to conclusions,
That I had any chance,
Foolish I am to think.

Spontaneous observations...

As promised in my previous post, here is a brand spanking new blog post!
A few days ago a fren of mine, PoOkpOok, was in an angsty mood. Thus i got this analogy that life is kinda like the workings of a computer... Some of the analogies that will parallel to everyday happenings in life are:

- There are some bugs that cannot be fixed (Unsolvable problems, mysteries in our lives)
- Hackers and virus writers (Darn nasty ppl who are out to have cheap thrills while making others miserable)
- Download updates to improve the system (Education, Knowledge)
- Every program we install will change the system somehow, will make some changes to the directory deep within (Experience, impact of events and individuals)
- No matter how we try to uninstall, these changes to the system cannot be reverted to how it was before (We nvr forget, forever etched in the mind)
- Wallpaper is just cosmetic (Whatever on the inside is the one that counts)
- Overheat and chips will fry (Drink more water!)

A rather amusing revelation was:

Angstober fest,
Drink your angst away,
Drown it inside your beer-filled chest,
Another hangover the next day...

-Kwan Wen Ching, 2005

To all having exams, Good Luck, and to all having hols, Have fun!

Might I miss...?
Might not be as generous,
Might not even seem serious;
Ache in the chest reminds me,
That I miss you...

Might not be that good-looking,
Might not know what's cooking;
Heavy heart reminds me,
That I miss you...

Might not be that careful,
Might not always be helpful;
Restless nights remind me,
That I miss you...

Might not be that diligent,
Might not at times be intelligent;
One thing I know for sure is,
That I miss you...

New blog post in the near future...

*Watch this space for a new update in 2 week's time, thanks for your patience...*

"Bad Day

Where is the moment we needed the most
You kick up the leaves and the magic is lost
They tell me your blue skies fade to grey
They tell me your passion's gone away
And I don't need no carryin' on

You stand in the line just to hit a new low
You're faking a smile with the coffee to go
You tell me your life's been way off line
You're falling to pieces everytime
And I don't need no carryin' on

Cause you had a bad day
You're taking one down
You sing a sad song just to turn it around
You say you don't know
You tell me don't lie
You work at a smile and you go for a ride
You had a bad day
The camera don't lie
You're coming back down and you really don't mind
You had a bad day
You had a bad day

Well you need a blue sky holiday
The point is they laugh at what you say
And I don't need no carryin' on

You had a bad day
You're taking one down
You sing a sad song just to turn it around
You say you don't know
You tell me don't lie
You work at a smile and you go for a ride
You had a bad day
The camera don't lie
You're coming back down and you really don't mind
You had a bad day
(Oh.. Holiday..)

Sometimes the system goes on the blink
And the whole thing turns out wrong
You might not make it back and you know
That you could be well oh that strong
And I'm not wrong

So where is the passion when you need it the most
Oh you and I
You kick up the leaves and the magic is lost

Cause you had a bad day
You're taking one down
You sing a sad song just to turn it around
You say you don't know
You tell me don't lie
You work at a smile and you go for a ride
You had a bad day
You've seen what you like
And how does it feel for one more time
You had a bad day
You had a bad day

Had a bad day
Had a bad day
Had a bad day
Had a bad day
Had a bad day"
