Set fire to the rain.

12 Jan

I let it fall, my heart
And as it fell, you rose to claim it
It was dark and I was over
Until you kissed my lips and you saved me
My hands, they were strong, but my knees were far too weak
To stand in your arms without falling to your feet

But there’s a side to you that I never knew, never knew
All the things you’d say, they were never true, never true
And the games you’d play, you would always win, always win

But I set fire to the rain
Watched it pour as I touched your face
Well, it burned while I cried
‘Cause I heard it screaming out your name, your name

When laying with you I could stay there
Close my eyes, feel you here forever
You and me together, nothing is better

‘Cause there’s a side to you that I never knew, never knew
All the things you’d say, they were never true, never true
And the games you’s play, you would always win, always win

But I set fire to the rain
Watched it pour as I touched your face
Adele Set Fire To The Rain lyrics found on http://www.directlyrics.com/adele-set-fire-to-the-rain-lyrics.html

Well, it burned while I cried

‘Cause I heard it screaming out your name, your name
I set fire to the rain
And I threw us into the flames
When we fell, something died
‘Cause I knew that that was the last time, the last time

Sometimes I wake up by the door
That heart you caught must be waiting for you
Even now when we’re already over
I can’t help myself from looking for you

I set fire to the rain
Watched it pour as I touch your face
Well, it burned while I cried
‘Cause I heard it screaming out your name, your name
I set fire to the rain
And I threw us into the flames
When we fell, something died
‘Cause I knew that that was the last time, the last time, oh

Oh, no
Let it burn, oh
Let it burn
Let it burn

Someone Like You

12 Jan

I heard that you’re settled down
That you found a girl and you’re married now
I heard that your dreams came true
Guess she gave you things I didn’t give to you

Old friend, why are you so shy?
Ain’t like you to hold back or hide from the light

I hate to turn up out of the blue, uninvited
But I couldn’t stay away, I couldn’t fight it
I had hoped you’d see my face and that you’d be reminded
That for me, it isn’t over

Never mind, I’ll find someone like you
I wish nothing but the best for you, too
Don’t forget me, I begged, I remember you said
Sometimes it lasts in love, but sometimes it hurts instead
Sometimes it lasts in love, but sometimes it hurts instead

You know how the time flies
Only yesterday was the time of our lives
We were born and raised in a summer haze
Bound by the surprise of our glory days

I hate to turn up out of the blue, uninvited

But I couldn’t stay away, I couldn’t fight it
I had hoped you’d see my face and that you’d be reminded
That for me, it isn’t over yet

Never mind, I’ll find someone like you
I wish nothing but the best for you, too
Don’t forget me, I begged, I remember you said
Sometimes it lasts in love, but sometimes it hurts instead, yeah

Nothing compares, no worries or cares
Regrets and mistakes, they’re memories made
Who would have known how bittersweet this would taste?

Never mind, I’ll find someone like you
I wish nothing but the best for you
Don’t forget me, I begged, I remember you said
Sometimes it lasts in love, but sometimes it hurts instead

Never mind, I’ll find someone like you
I wish nothing but the best for you, too
Don’t forget me, I begged, I remember you said
Sometimes it lasts in love, but sometimes it hurts instead
Sometimes it lasts in love, but sometimes it hurts instead

Another one.

11 Jan

If the writing is honest it cannot be separated from the man who wrote it.
— Tennessee Williams

A quote I came across.

11 Jan

There are three rules for writing a novel. Unfortunately, no one knows what they are.
— W. Somerset Maugham

Run

11 Jan

I wanna watch you undress
I wanna watch you glow
Let your hair down
All around, cover us both
You come in a wave
We crash and we roll
You surround me, pull me, drown me, swallow me whole

You turn, turn, turn, turning me on

Like a slow fire burn 

Know that it’s wrong

Still I run, run, run, run right into you

Yeah, I run, run, run, run right into you

You pull me in close

You buckle my knees

I shake and I shiver just to feel you breathe

You trace my lines

(You trace your lines)

Stirring my soul

Shoot sparks at the heart of the world and I watch it explode
 (I watch you, I watch you)

You turn, turn, turn, turning me on

Like a slow fire burn 

Know that it’s wrong

Still I run, run, run, run right into you

Yeah, I run, run, run, run right into you

I’m amazing when you’re beside me
I am so much more
And I feel your fingers
Pound like thunder
I am so much more
So much more

Turn, turn, turn, turning me on

Like a slow fire burn 

Know that it’s wrong

Still I run, run, run, run right into you

Yeah, I run, run, run, run right into you

Turn, turn, turn, turning me on

Like a slow fire burn 

Know that it’s wrong

Still I run, run, run, run right into you

Yeah, I run, run, run, run right into you
Still I run, run, run, run right back to you
Turning me on
Like a slow fire burn

Gonna Get Over You

11 Jan

Goodbye
Should be saying that to you by now, shouldn’t I?
Laying down a law that I live by
Well, maybe next time

I’ve got a thick tongue
Brimming with the words that go unsung
I simmer then I burn for a someone
The wrong one

And I tell myself to let the story end
That my heart will rest in someone else’s hand
But my ‘Why not me?’ philosophy began
And I said

Ooh, how am I gonna get over you?
I’ll be alright
Just not tonight
But someday

Oh, I wish you’d want me to stay
I’ll be alright
Just not tonight
But someday

Maybe
It’s a vicious little word that can slay me
Keep me where I’m hurting, you make me
Hang from your hands

But no more
I won’t beg to buy a shot at your back door
If I’m aching at the thought of you, what for?
That’s not me anymore

And I’m not the girl that I intend to be
But I dare you, darlin’, just you wait and see
But this time not for you, but just for me
I said

Ooh, how am I gonna get over you?
I’ll be alright
Just not tonight
But someday

Oh, I wish you’d want me to stay
I’ll be alright
Just not tonight
But someday

Say it’s coming soon
Someday without you
All I can do
Is get me past the ghost of you

Wave goodbye to me
I won’t say I’m sorry
I’ll be alright
Once I find the other side of someday

Ooh, how am I gonna get over you?
I’ll be alright
Just not tonight
But someday

Oh, I wish you’d want me to stay
I’ll be alright
Just not tonight
But someday

A Blessed Day

10 Jan

Was quite happy that I met good and nice tutors during my tutorials. Because I was kinda disappointed that the lecturers are not really good, like they are slow in their lessons, sidetracking too much, boring in their speech, monotonous! You name the boring stuffs, they all have it. It’s really quite bad. Tomorrow will be the terror again as tomorrow’s lecturer is the most boring one out of all. She has 70s bangs and long pony with brown (notice, it’s not blonde) hair. But anyway, whatever it is. I’m still quite determined to do well for this trimester.

Putting that aside, tutors are much much better. They speak better than the lecturers and are so much more fun. One interesting fact: All my lecturers/tutors for my Law module are all lawyers. I’m impressed with my tutor, Gemma. She’s a mother of 2, a pretty angmoh lady, a lawyer for 9.5 years; 5 years in Aussie and 4.5 years in SG, she has 3 degree qualifications and am currently doing her 4th. What can I say? Powerful woman. She’s really nice on her first class, I hope she stays the same. Because I remembered she mentioned that we should appreciate her while she stays generous with us. That’s like a pretty stern phrase uh. But I kinda like her!

She motivates me to want to do so much more and be even more successful! You know there are so many kinds of people on the earth and there is really this one kind, they are kinda special. Because they seem to be the 打不死的蟑螂, they just kept going on no matter what happens until the day the earth fades away, that’s when they stop. I adore their strength and you know people like that have their charm, they kinda pushes you to do more and to get into your battle suit for the competitive environment. It’s interesting how humans can affect one another in such a way. I really aspire to be as strong, brave and daring like them.

But yet, in their own ways, they are sweet-looking and really nice people. They are not like those who are very competitive and hostile. They are competitive but yet, they are sophisticated. It’s an art to be mastered. Not easy, but all aspire to be this strong. A new revelation 启示 everyday, a new thinking, a new mindset.

It slowly changes who you are. Always remember it’s your mindset that sets up your character and creates you.

Second week of Trimester 2 2012

9 Jan

This week has started well, today. It has been so-so. Some ups and downs during the day, but still alright on the whole. Not looking forward to Mondays, they are just BLUES. Because my lecture is 10am to 12pm, and then the tutorial is at 430pm to 530pm. Well done with the arrangement of the timetable seriously, Roma. Thanks for wasting my time with the 4 hours break. That’s nothing that I can do or say right? And Sharma says we can’t change our tutorial timings. Thanks man. It’s so helpful!

Other than that, this week started off being a little magical and fun. I’m looking forward to a fulfilling and interesting week still. Oh yes, something good to mention. So glad that I’ve gotten my schedule planner! Yay! Now I can mark down all my dates and my to-do list. Happy! Besides that, it’s good that I have a place to write things down!

I hope that this week will turn out just fine. Two more days, I shall endure! Go go go Sandy! :)
