Onward to 2K6...

Brand spanking new year, 2K6! But hey, it feels just like any other day in 2005...
Goodness, how those days just fly by faster than a F-22 Raptor!
Soon enough, the 2006 World Cup would bend into view, Da Vinci Code spreads the controversy onto the screens, 7th and (supposedly) last of the Harry Potter series closes the book on us, and tap ur feet to tap dancing penguins from the Antartic, just to name a few events worth noting (and marking on your calendar) over the horizon of 2006!
To kick off and commemorate 2K6, enjoy more poetic creations by yours truly:

Very much...
Would like to say
I love you,
Want you to believe in my sincerity;
Want really to say
I love you,
Wouldn't want you to feel guilty.

Pause...
Stop feeling guilty,
Makes me unhappy,
Stop feeling sad,
Makes me feel bad.

-Kwan Wen Ching, 2005

No Regrets

Since the day we met,
Never a day goes by
Without me thinking of you,
Dusk till dawn, sunrise to sunset,
You're beautiful in everyway, that is true.

Though I want this to be something more,
I am bound to turn out disappointed,
Unless you can prove me wrong,
Then there won't be a sad song,
And not turn out broken-hearted.

I honour your decisions,
Your goals and determinations,
Decipher your problems,
Let them not be burdens,
Like heavy gold emblems.

You are a wonder, marvel instilled,
From the day you were born,
Lest we forget, something unfulfilled,
The fond agreement,
Our challenge at morn...

-Kwan Wen Ching, 2005

So sorry...

In future I won't leave you out of any of my activities, please take care,
I will never neglect you...

Hope you enjoy this lil pic of a cute rabbit with a pancake hat (not sure what's the name of the snack that Doraemon loves so much :p)

Great time...

Inspiration...

A Question...
Walking round, side-by-side,
Warmth radiating in the soul,
What I feel within, inside,
Only felt when you're around.

Mesmerizing, breathless,
Looking into your eyes, holding ur stare,
Makes me spellbound, speechless,
Makes me long that you're always there.

Let it be heard from coast to coast,
Bubbly personality, wonderful smile,
You are what matters to me most,
You can be put that on record, on file.

Butterfly on the top of ur shoes,
Santarina girl, captivating presence,
Gifts in poetry, poetry in life,
My life, you are of the very essence.

You make this world so grand,
This ain't no lie, not a mask,
Time is but a grain of sand,
Would it be wise for me to ask,
Can I hold your hand?

-Kwan Wen Ching, 2005

A-musing
Dilemma of where to eat,
Roam every direction,
This is no mean feat,
Noodles it is, a decision!

For everyone, here's a link to The DaVinci Code movie full-length trailer!

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"

Move to the groove...

Cultural Beat (a Cultural Night event organized by the International Student Council of my college) has come and passed.
This 'lil vignette should sum it up :)

Cultural Beat,
Though rain and sleet,
We could still feel the heat;
It made us move our feet,
For it was a treat,
That was mighty sweet.

-Kwan Wen Ching, 2005

For those who missed out on last night's event, such a pity but not to fear! Let's look forward to Cultural Night 2006!

Meaningful lyrics...

"You're beautiful. You're beautiful.
You're beautiful, it's true."
-James Blunt

"Far Away

This time, This place
Misused, Mistakes
Too long, Too late
Who was I to make you wait
Just one chance
Just one breath
Just in case there’s just one left
‘Cause you know,
you know, you know

That I love you
I have loved you all along
And I miss you
Been far away for far too long
I keep dreaming you’ll be with me
and you’ll never go
Stop breathing if
I don’t see you anymore

On my knees, I’ll ask
Last chance for one last dance
‘Cause with you, I’d withstand
All of hell to hold your hand
I’d give it all
I’d give for us
Give anything but I won’t give up
‘Cause you know,
you know, you know

That I love you
I have loved you all along
And I miss you
Been far away for far too long
I keep dreaming you’ll be with me
and you’ll never go
Stop breathing if
I don’t see you anymore

So far away
Been far away for far too long
So far away
Been far away for far too long
But you know, you know, you know

I wanted
I wanted you to stay
‘Cause I needed
I need to hear you say
That I love you
I have loved you all along
And I forgive you
For being away for far too long
So keep breathing
‘Cause I’m not leaving
Hold on to me and
never let me go"
