It will rain

I always love It will rain by Bruno Mars but I think Boyce Avenue did a great job by adding some umph to this song... loving loving it..

If you ever leave me, baby,
Leave some morphine at my door
'Cause it would take a whole lot of medication
To realize what we used to have,
We don't have it anymore.

There's no religion that could save me
No matter how long my knees are on the floor (Ooh)
So keep in mind all the sacrifices I'm makin'
To keep you by my side
To keep you from walkin' out the door.

'Cause there'll be no sunlight
If I lose you, baby
There'll be no clear skies
If I lose you, baby
Just like the clouds
My eyes will do the same, if you walk away
Everyday it'll rain, rain, ra-a-a-ain

I'll never be your mother's favorite
Your daddy can't even look me in the eye
Ooh, if I was in their shoes, I'd be doing the same thing
Sayin' "There goes my little girl
Walkin' with that troublesome guy"

But they're just afraid of something they can't understand
Ooh, but little darlin' watch me change their minds
Yeah for you I'll try, I'll try, I'll try, I'll try
I'll pick up these broken pieces 'til I'm bleeding
If that'll make you mine

'Cause there'll be no sunlight
If I lose you, baby
There'll be no clear skies
If I lose you, baby
Just like the clouds
My eyes will do the same, if you walk away
Everyday it'll rain, rain, ra-a-a-ain

Oh, don't you say (don't you say) goodbye (goodbye),
Don't you say (don't you say) goodbye (goodbye)
I'll pick up these broken pieces 'til I'm bleeding
If that'll make it right

'Cause there'll be no sunlight
If I lose you, baby
There'll be no clear skies
If I lose you, baby
And just like the clouds
My eyes will do the same, if you walk away
Everyday it'll rain, rain, ra-a-a-ain

Goodbye kuey chap

Goodbye kuey chap, sg maung's night market, 3rd mile.

What happened during CNY, how come your service become so lousy?

Today I am served with only the skin parts. When I asked, the lady owner answered rudely: 'that's what you get for rm4' (smallest/cheapest portion).

This is not the 1st time I am here, been here for almost 10 years. Something is seriously not right tonight.

It's ok, I'm not mad, I'm just sad coz I not coming back to this stall anymore.

Ash Wednesday

Ash Wednesday is the first day of Lent and occurs 46 days before Easter. Normally we will fast on meat on this special day.

We went for the 7.30pm Mass at BDC yesterday.
As usual during the Mass, ashes are imposed on our foreheads - this act is to remind us that - "Man is dust, and unto dust you shall return."

Emmett is super excited - it's his 1st Ash Wednesday Mass

Have a Holy Season of Lent everyone!

And "Remember that thou art dust, and to dust thou shalt return"—Genesis 3:19

ohh.. Happy Valentine's Day too..

Ellie Goulding - Lights

Thanks to Melanie Martinez from the VOICE 3, now I'm in love with this song..

Melanie's version:

Ellie Goulding's version:

I had a way then losing it all on my own
I had a heart then but the queen has been overthrown
And I'm not sleeping now the dark is too hard to beat
And I'm not keeping up the strength I need to push me

You show the lights that stop me turn to stone
You shine It when I'm alone
And so I tell myself that I'll be strong
And dreaming when they're gone

'Cause they're calling, calling, calling me home
Calling, calling, calling home
You show the lights that stop me turn to stone
You shine It when I'm alone

Home

Noises, I play within my head
Touch my own skin and hope that I'm still breathing
And I think back to when my brother and my sister slept
In an unlocked place the only time I feel safe

You show the lights that stop me turn to stone
You shine it when I'm alone
And so I tell myself that I'll be strong
And dreaming when they're gone

'Cause they're calling, calling, calling me home
Calling, calling, calling home
You show the lights that stop me turn to stone
You shine it when I'm alone

Home

Yeah, hee

Light, lights, lights, lights
Light, lights, lights, lights
Light, lights, lights, lights
Light, lights

You show the lights that stop me turn to stone
You shine it when I'm alone
And so I tell myself that I'll be strong
And dreaming when they're gone

'Cause they're calling, calling, calling me home
Calling, calling, calling home
You show the lights that stop me turn to stone
You shine it when I'm alone

Home, home
Light, lights, lights, lights
Light, lights, lights, lights

Basically

Tolong... Jangan guna banyak sangat Basically dalam speech anda.

Pening kepala saya dengar sorang tu, 95% of his sentence ada perkataan Basically.

*So basically...
*Yes, this is the figure basically..
*Basically this is all..
*basically, basically, basically!

Kita ni orang Malaysia, kalau English macam kureng dan ada hati nak impress Menteri-Menteri, guna jer BM, pasti akan lebih convincing.

Maju lah Sarawak untuk negara.

*Masa makan, terdengar ada orang lain yang siap kira total 88 kali orang tu guna basically. Ingatkan saya sorang je yang pening, rupa nyer ada orang lain yang lebih extreme.

**Ini satu peringatkan buat diri saya juga.
