Craig David
Insomnia

I never thought that I'd fall in love, love, love, love
But it grew from a simple crush, crush, crush, crush
Being without you girl, I was all messed up, up, up, up
When you walked out, said that you'd had enough

Been a fool, girl I know
Didn't expect this is how things would go
Maybe in time, you'll change your mind
Now looking back I wish I could rewind

Because I can't sleep til you're next to me
No I can't live without you no more
Oh I stay up til you're next to me
Til this house feels like it did before
Feels like insomnia ah ah, Feels like insomnia ah ah
Feels like insomnia ah ah, Feels like insomnia ah ah

Remember telling my boys that I'd never fall in love, love, love, love
You used to think I'd never find a girl I could trust, trust, trust, trust
And then you walked into my life and it was all about us, us, us, us
But now I'm sitting here thinking I messed the whole thing up, up, up, up

Been a fool (fool), girl I know (know)
Didn't expect this is how things would go
Maybe in time (time), you'll change your mind (mind)
Now looking back I wish I could rewind

Because I can't sleep til you're next to me
No I can't live without you no more (without you no more)
Oh I stay up til you're next to me (to me)
Til this house feels like it did before (Because it)
Feels like insomnia ah ah, Feels like insomnia ah ah
Feels like insomnia ah ah (Ah), Feels like insomnia ah ah

Ah, I just can't go to sleep
Cause it feels like I've fallen for you
It's getting way too deep
And I know that it's love because

I can't sleep til you're next to me
No I can't live without you no more (without you no more)
Oh I stay up til you're next to me (to me)
Til this house feels like it did before
Feels like insomnia ah ah, Feels like insomnia ah ah
Feels like insomnia ah ah, Feels like insomnia ah ah

Feels like insomnia ah ah, Feels like insomnia ah ah
Feels like insomnia ah ah, Feels like insomnia ah ah

how apt

whooo.. its been a mad 2 days.. surfing was soooooo fun!!! tiring... but fun! managed to catch some waves! wanna surf again.. omg, but the water is COLD! haha! oh, and i've been drinking EVERYDAY! haha! from the time i came here until now, at least 1 glass a day :D but its been great!

miss mandy and everyone terribly.. but its the price i gotta pay i guess!

went for mass at st mary's cathedral. the choir was nice, the acoustics was great cos of the high ceiling and everything although couldn't really make out what they were singing though!

then we drove to blue mountain to visit the three sisters.. or rather the remaining out of the seven sisters. cos i thin k they eroded and everything. took lots of photos with our new canon g10. really cool and it just makes you wanna take photos. looks like a cheaper version of an SLR.

then we saw the queen elizabeth lookout and the other stuffs... steps were really steep, think my butt is aching. HAHA! shoulders too, but don't know why.. was sooooo windy, so cold!

anyway, driving down to melbourne the tomorrow after doing the sydney bridge climb. FOR 3.5 hours! haha! will be a good work out!

oh ya! forgot to mention when we went sufing at bondi beach, saw lots of super buff guys! so i made a promise to work out everyday! cos i think i'm too skinny.. HAHA! ohhhh, and i saw 2 topless girls too, but then they disappeared after that. aw well! and saw lots of hot chicks too! but got some people a bit fat.. hehe..
the water was bloody cold! and people were swimming in bikinis and board shorts! madness!don't know how they take it..

anyway.. going to sleep soon! starting early tomorrow

2008-12-12T07:46:41Z

Mcdonald's breakfast can kiss my ass!!! haha, had breakfast (well brunch actually) at Bather's Pavilion. OMG, SEXXXXXXXXXXX!
had blueberry pancakes, mum had egg benedict with some yellow sauce i actually thought was the egg at first HAHA! toni and aunty grace had the bather's breakfast. YUMMMMZZZZZ! pancakes never tasted so good seriously, soft inside yet crispy outside. wow, and sweet, fresh blueberries inside. toni's portabello mushroom was the size of my palm. freaking big! Thats how big.. OMG I LOOOOOOOVE AUSTRALIA. HAHA!

then in the afternoon we went to powerhouse museum, its about science and tech and all that what not.. very hands-on with lots of exhibits to try and stuff. they also had a Star Wars exhibit, showing all the robotics, visual effects and stuff.

OH YA! i learnt that young kids on an empty stomach should never be given lollies (how they call sweets). Sugar rush is insane. mad.. kids go out of control. ah well, better for me so when i have my own kid i'll be ok :)

HAHA! bouncy! omg..

HAHA! damn nice please, totally MANLY show. to all those guys watching gossip girl i.e. my class guys please Please PLEASE swap to entourage!!! though there's no sex scenes, but lots of swearing and hot chicks and nice cars. but thats about it, i think sex and the city is worse.

anyway! its 1.47 am here, going to bed now night!

HOLIDAYZZZZZZZ!!!

2008-12-11T06:39:23Z

hey all! saying hi from sydney australia. haha! flight was good, went first class:) cos flight was overbooked and so we got bumped up to first, tho it wasn't as good as last time, i think they down graded the quality of luxury. ah well, first class is first class i guess. food was ok. but the raviolli was YUMMMMM!!!!! haha, watched hellboy 2, angus, thongs and perfect snogging, mama mia and a bit of iron man heh. 7 hours is not enough to enjoy first class.. I'M ONLY SITTING FOR THE FIRST TIME IN A LONG TIME OK!?!?! before you start shooting me haha!

anyway, staying with auntie grace and uncle choi and ana. they're super nice, good mix of aussie niceness and singaporean drive HAHA! ana is 3 this year, but she speaks like an aussie its DAMN cool! i'm sleeping in her room cos toni is sleeping with mum. THANK GOD. at least i get sleep. HAHA!! Poor toni has to tahan mum's snores hehe..

anyway! first day out today! started early, so woke up at 6.45, but time is 3 hours ahead sooooo, equivalent to waking up at 3.45am.. ah well, not too bad la.. so we went to the aunty grace's office area after dropping ana off at preschool, and i saw where the last world youth day was held! cool! and so we went for breakfast and proceeded to walk around. toni got a pair of sunglasses, haha! finally! she wouldn't stop complaining. haha! and i saw this damn cool t-shirt, but too bad it cost 55 bucks mum didn't wanna pay. it said "don't sleep, clowns will eat you" HAHA! damn it was so COOL!

anyway we walked around aimlessly looking for the information centre but somehow couldn't find it! (later found out it moved). so anyway went to darling harbour aquarium. we spent 3 hours there haha! but throughly enjoyed ourselves. then we wandered around some more, and found the INFORMATION CENTRE! haha! it was next to imax, so raided the shelves for maps and everything haha! then met back up with aunty grace and went back to the house.

tiring day man, walk like mad.. oh well!! wonder what we'll be doing tomorrow!!!

I PRAY THAT TOMORROW WILL HAVE SUNNY WEATHER!!!!

and Happy Birthday DEBBIE!!

and I miss you so much baby!! see you soon :*

just went for the musical "Its My Life" on friday, and the same one on tuesday also. HAHA! cos tuesday was with mum toni and sa yee and charlotte. went on friday with mandy(who else).

anyway, it was directed by lim yu beng. a musical billed as one about teens, for teens, by teens.
i was really so touched cos they touched many issues like parental divorce, pregnancy and being accepted by your parents. that one really hit a heart string. and the way the performers bared their souls was UNBELIEVABLE. although the programme said that the stories depicted was fictitious, it was definitely based on the performers lives, and very close too!

i totally admire the whole cast but the song "stranger in me" written by corrinne may was one of the highlights, and nabil and farid, wow, WOW. i could feel their emotions in my seat. i heard from my aunt that nabil's mum really didn't support him doing art and all, and he was crying and all on stage. but the courage it took to bare it for all to see. I AM IN AWE!!
nabil you ROCK!

i'm so glad i went to watch it, TWICE. haha! cos friday was the closing night. its funny how only the celebs and actors were the only ones giving a standing ovation, and me too! hahah, cos i was so moved. maybe its cos only they realise how hard it is to do what the cast had to do.

Its My Life! and I... am not gonna let you get me down!

1 week later...

2008-06-10T03:23:23Z

so much for trying to post every day!! bleah, but the studying never stops! sigh, if i had to rate how many steps i'm on in a mountain of 100 steps ( so the analogy day gave), i think i'm just at 30! i've just been chionging maths all the way! no physics, maybe a little chem during tuition and outside of it. if i finish maths that'll be 33 steps! yarrrr

don't understand how people have the time to go out (although i totally understand why!! i wanna run away from my studies toooo!!) maybe in this area i might be considered lucky? parents hounding at my ass to study so much might have its benefits!! hmmmmm...

oh! went to watch kung fu panda onnnnnnnn... hmmm, what day was that. OH YEA, sunday, with mum and mark. cos dad went to work ; ) wahaha! before that had lunch at fish and co at velocity (novena square for the uninitiated)
bought a pair of jeans from celio:D FINALLY! oh and after the movie didn't do studying even more :P but watched federer get ass-whooped by nadal 6-1 6-3 6-0. yup, you read it right! 6-0. world no 1 lost 6-0!! was cheering the king of clay of course. but andrew krygsman was behind his 'classy' federer till the 3rd set when he gave up : D! total ownage!

and yesterday! monday! studied again. daily grind i'm afraid. then went to mandy's house for dinner! heh, but surprised her before that! a flower : ) why you may ask? NOTHING, absolutely nothing: ) maybe cos i love her : D why do i need a reason to surprise her? haha! she was quite happy. I HOPE : P

then went for chem tuition, felt like an idiot again there. organic chem is really! ARGGGG! PULL HAIR kinda thing cos its so immense and i'm still stuck on the tiny portion. haven't even gotten the whole picture yet. oh well!

SO YEA! today.. back to my grind i guess.. shall aim to finish poisson and normal by today! HOPEFULLY! then maybe attempt to do some chem or physics. damn, its only like 15 days more!!! AIYEE!!

WORK WORK WORK!!

2008-06-03T02:47:58Z

wow. just realised i haven't blogged in almost half a year :D
since i'm ACTUALLY studying everyday now, i should be able to set some time to blog everyday :D no promises tho!

goodbye spiderwebs!

2007-12-26T10:36:45Z

whoa.. just realised its been a whole month since i made a post.. but can't do it now cos doing homework at mandy's.. but she went off for tuition and i have no discpline :(
oh well, just a quick summary then.

stopped work at the end of nov. earned the money back, won my double or nothing bet with dad.

went for project eagles. ok la. mixed feelings, shall elaborate more next time, haha! if i get the time.
the next day after getting back i flew off to new zealand, thanks so much to my baby for sending me off. dont know if i could have lasted the 15 days without that.

did losta adventure stuff. but it rained abit. totally sucked. screwed up our shotover jet experience and cancelled our shotover rafting cos water was a few metres above safe level. damn. but it was ok i guess! we managed to have fun at the other rafting site. got picked to row in front. got smacked a few times by the waves. jumped in the damn cold water (14degs?)

oh, and bungy and luge in queenstown. bloody scary man, but definitely wanna do it again! haha call me crazy, but the rush is effing fantastic. skydiving next time maybe too.

oh, hot springs was nice too. but strangely enough, sometimes the water was too hot for me and i had to sit out. the outside temp was 14deg and the water was 41deg. haha, and i perspired, can you imagine that.

ohhh, zorbing was cool. then there was this thing called the swoop, but for some reason my mum pronounces it lik soup or soop. ahaha!! yea, you get strapped in and swoop like a bird very close to the ground. its like a giant swing but the drop is 40ft.

but not so fantastic as the bungy man. you may fall only 47m but the height is 400m above queenstown, so its still damn scary, its like commiting suicide, no wonder a few people tend to get cold feet at the end.

hmmm.. then when i got back, guess who was waiting for me!! yep, there my baby was waiting for me. too bad she had to go for the mawai/eagles party by herself, my parents didn't allow cos there was much to do.

rush to clean the house, jet lag......

then christmas eve, hahah, yay! first christmas with mandy :D hope it won't be the last!
went for my old choir's musical, candy cane lane! was damn cute, but the standard was good too, as expected :) then mass after that.

went back to my place for a nap then the killer part.. meeting my extended family just to tell you first, i have 30odd cousins. so it was damn scary for mandy, and me too! thank GOD it went ok. think my mum told them she was coming cos she got presents :D

oh, then christmas day, heh, mandy was invited to lunch with my father's side.. grandmother and my godfather(my father's brother also) and godmother. mandy looked perfect in that black dress and purple cardigan :)
my grandmother got stunned when mandy gave her a present, the told me to go get something in return haha!!

then mandy left for nat's party..

nothing much after that, went over to grandmothers, went home, slept from 6pm to 10.30pm :D
woke up, watched anime till 5am ahaha!! lots to catch upon :P

yep, then now i'm here at mandy's house TRYING to get something done.. mum's birthday in 2 days.. wonder what i should get her.. shopping tmr!!

kk gtg, if mandy comes back and i don't do anything i'm gonna die.. heh.. but also don't wanna let her down!! bye!!

gabborod @ 2007-11-26T00:53:00

2007-11-25T16:59:28Z

well, went over to mandy's today to try study and do chem and maths and check out SATs.. but only managed to check out SATs.. did FA for chem and q1 of discuccion questions.. In the end, played heroes 5 like majority of the time.. tsk horrible!! and i still need to write a note for someone for something.. grr.. by wed!! AND I"M WORKING TMR!!! sigh again! ahah!!

SCHOOL OH SCHOOL I MISS YOU!!!

oh, mandy's dad's fish soup is the sexxxxxx!! thx uncle!! haha

helllloooo!!

2007-11-12T15:01:55Z

OMG... how long has it been!!
i think my blog is starting to get cobwebs! haha!!
oh well.. have been mighty busy.. and LAZY.. hahah!! esp to blog..
work work work is my mantra now.. but that is going to take a break! wheeeeeeeee!! going to mawai!! haha!! yay, in mandy's group! too bad 6th will be spent going to some museum.. At least we celebrated already!

love my baby so much! she was SOOOOOOO SWEET!!!
sigh.. can't even begin to express my gratitude and love for her!
she surprised me with donuts!(stupid me, go and spoil it for myself, so kaypo and read her message to chye)
and then she surprised me with the candles in the shape of a 6 AND a heart!!(once again i spoilt the surprise by peeking when she went to the toilet)
oh and when i got home, i watched the video she made.. another surprise! really felt like crying cos i'm so loved ( :
LOVE YOU SO MUCH BABY!!! <333

yea.. right now my debt is cut down to 498 bucks owed!! whoot!!
earned 50 from my mum for helping out at ij primary with her brownie business on the 6th (:
was hard work, but it was worth it! guess wasn't only the money but the mee siam was terrific too!
cos it was auntie bren's birthday..
yea, then after that chionged home to shower and get ready for my interview for my job!!!
haha, dad told me to dress better cos i was in RAGS.. was in shirt and jeans, but i'm glad i listened to him and wore long sleeved shirt and black pants, really looked like a businessman. haha!! oh well, it wasn't an interview per se, cos Khim already looked like she was going to employ me, so she was just getting to know me better. yeps! so then i started work IMMEDIATELY after that!! hahah!!

well, its quite boring i can admit, but i learn things too. DETAIL!! any small wrong move.. BYE BYE!! oh well, it'll help me pay my dad so what the heck.

and i helped out my grandmother too!! got 30 bucks from her, for 5.5hours.. she wanted to just give me 50bucks but its against my morals la, taking money for doing nothing, i feel bad.. not even my birthday or anything. glad i didn't take it( : stand up for whats right! yea!

oh well, busy preparing for mawai!! pack pack pack, and work! haha

shall blog again when i'm not feeling so lazy or there's something to blog about.. ahahaha

BOOOO!!

2007-10-31T03:54:32Z

ahahah!! its halloween!! heh.. haven't celebrated in so long!! ahahah!! but i remember last year when i went walking around clarke quay, saw all those people dressed up and all! it was cool! all the themed parties :D
happy birthday to adeline!!

heh, earned 2 bucks from shaine yesterday from a bet which he didn't know he was going to lose from the start.. AHAHA!! cos he bet that a hostelite was from squash, but during my sec 4 year i regularly went to play squash at the courts so i would kinda know who is and who isn't.. heh, turns out he was from micro-mouse!! AHAHA.. eat that shaine! heh.. i guess it could go towards my debt fund, cos i "earned" it.. heheh!

yeap, and today i cleaned all the ceiling fans and changed a ceiling light bulb.. fans were a piece of cake, but it was the light bulb which freaked me the most.. cos i had to remove a big-ass glass covering while balancing on a table and mini-ladder.. lucky din drop it on myself.. haha!!
oh well! earned 5 bucks from it!! worth the risk! heh!

oh yea, decided to go down to see the modelling agency thing-y today at 2pm.. wonder what it'll be like eh.. hmmm.. but i know i'll have to do other stuff on top of that, cos can't rely just on that to pay the 600 bucks, cos i don't think it can.. might work with my mum during the hols with her brownie delivery and stuff.. yea! manual labour, but i enjoy it :D

WA, got damn pissed today, cos i read in the newspaper of this real ASS who blocked the ambulance with lights and siren turned on, and honked him as well.. you know what he said? he said the ambulance did that to get out of the jam and that it might not really have had a patient!?!?
what the?! what an idiot! he's so cynical, but i don't get it why he would be.. unless of course he would do that himself.. maybe cos he has no aversion to doing wrong that he thinks people would act in the same way.. its despicable that he would do such a thing and on top of that make such a comment.. i would like to run him down and see what he says when he's in the ambulance and idiots like him block the way..

heh, 588 bucks to go!!

2007-10-29T16:00:31Z

WORK BEGINS

2007-10-29T13:35:46Z

FINALLY!

started out on my journey to pay back my 600bucks today.. so now i'm $595 closer to my goal.. did the dishes tonight for 5bucks.. can't be asking for much cos BEGGERS CAN'T BE CHOOSERS..

so if anyone has any odd jobs for me to do.. tell me time and place and what i'm supposed to do, and i'll tell you if i can make it.. will most probably a yes because as i said.. i don't really have much of a choice..

i'm gonna pay him back! before my holiday to new zealand.. since it seems like i have to go for the trip.. so that cuts my working time to just what.. 3 WEEKS!! sigh.. which company in their right mind will hire me by week to week basis?!? In singapore? NO WAY!!

i'll just have to grit my teeth and do it!! GAH!!

595 dollars to go!

CHINESE!!!!

2007-10-28T08:40:02Z

omg... i got the whole night to fall in love with chinese!! AHHHHHHHHHH!!
damn, i seriously wanna clear it now, so that i don't have to take CL(B) next year, and on top of that i would be disappointing everyone. my parents, my tuition teacher and my chinese teacher, and mandy.. which i definitely do not want to do.. SIGH!!!

how how!!

anyway, i'm feeling so lethargic nowadays!! damn, i need to get myself in shape.. FAST!! and i'm also having no appetite :D maybe its cos my body is telling me i don't need to eat cos i'm not going to do anything with it ANYWAY.. hahah!!

Lunch was quite nice at ichiban sushi at toa payoh hub... no wonder there's such brisk business. Food was simply delicious! had tori karaage curry Udon.. or something like that.. hahah!! The fried chicken cubes were the SEXXXXXX!!!! so greatly done.. definitely would go back :D

oh yea.. brother's birthday today.. he's so unlucky! his birthday is right smack in between papers!! and somehow its always during exams too.. too bad for him i guess.. but he might be getting a dress watch for his birthday O.O!!
dad was talking about emporio armani or something.. lucky ass! oh well, i got a phone for my birthday so i shouldn't be complaining.. MAYBE he might share :D

darn.. chinese!!

oh and happy second to tabitha and gerald!! haha!!

errrrr

2007-10-26T09:16:35Z
