right.

this is so beautiful. i cry every single time i hear it. nuff said.

what have i done? i wish i could run

away from this ship going under

just trying to help, hurt everyone else

now i feel the weight of the world is 

on my shoulders

what can you do when your good isnt good enough?

when all that you touch tumbles down?

cause my best intentions keep making a mess of things

i just wanna fix it somehow

but how many times will it take?

oh, how many times will it take for me?

to get it right

to get it right

can i start again with my faith shaken

cause i cant go back and undo this

i just have to stay and face my mistakes

but if i get stronger and wiser 

i'll get through this

what can you do when your good isnt good enough? 

when all that you touch tumbles down

but how many times will it take?

oh, how many times will it take for me?

to get it right

so i throw up my fist

throw a punch in the air

and accept the truth, that sometimes life isnt fair

yeah i'll send down a wish

yeah, i'll send up a prayer

and finally, someone will see

how much i care

what can you do when your good isnt good enough

when all that you touch tumbles down?

oh my best intentions keep making a mess of things

i just wana fix it somehow

but how many times will it take?

oh, how many times will it take?

to get it right

to get it right

Have just finished watching the titanic ghosts documentary on YouTube and have read about the discovery of the identity of the infamous "unknown child" of the titanic. It is indeed fascinating to see how scientists identify the identity of an unknown child who had died a century ago with dna from one small bone fragment and 3 teeth. At least now this little boy could rest in peace. Watching all that drama unfold made me realized that if -- God forbid -- anything happened to me, I would try my best to remember to put my identification card in my clothing.

shapes and patterns

deposited a few copies of my resume at the career fair in the morning, shopping and late lunch at midvalley/gardens with kaireen, anusha, wenli and simin the remainder of the day. the first picture i took of the rainbow-coloured cardboard paper inspired me to look for regularities in shapes and patterns, so i dug out some of the photos that i had taken of similar kind.

rainbow colour coordinated art paper; navy stripes; butterfly prints; the onehundredcatsandamouse painting exhibited at the sarawak cat museum; the rims of the volkswagen golf gti; vw touareg; and passat cc, respectively, taken at the volkswagen das auto show i went with him last week at the bukit jalil stadium. it was freaking impressive! maybe i shall dedicate a full post to the presentation.

 i have been mia for over 2 weeks, my bad, i know. sorry! would probably get into more action these few days, now just feast your eyes on these kitties, remember them, the brother and sister pair with their mom? 

exactly 3 months after we took these photos, they are now almost grown up! arent they pretty/cute? the one on the right in the first pic is now still on the right, she's a female, so we named her leng lui (pretty girl in direct translation from cantonese), and the other is her brother, leng zai (handsome boy in cantonese)

the first pic was taken on 15th may, the second on 15th august! my sister took both these pics, there's still an entire folder of them in our archives! they are just too cute, and are regulars at our home now.

blogging has become sporadic since my holidays, so here's a peek at my life for the past two months. be warned, picture overload.

1. anusha, simin and i went up to genting for a one day fun at the peak, our clothes and shoes were soaking wet from the fume ride, and whilst we were sunbasking ourselves in the hot sun/cold breeze, three of us developed mild sunburns;

bentos - simin and i made sandwiches, packed them, and customized with our names written on the wrapping. cute and yummy!

2. took random pictures;

spontaneous shot on penang bridge during the penang bike week 2011 in june.

3. went on a 3 days trip to kuching with yujia and kinta, and talked deep into the night until we fell asleep;

self-timer shots are always necessary!

4. celebrated ahkong's 80th, it was a very heartwarming dinner and we had a fun family get-together over the entire weekend;

5. played with xiaoxiao and hung around with the family of stray kitties that live across the street from our home;

6. celebrated mummy's birthday on the 3rd of august;

nah, it's all safe.

7. took more random pictures;

subway white chocolate macadamia cookie, soooo good!

8. and spent the past thursday and friday with him and our friends before moving back here at sunway. we had a karaoke session on thursday, and shopped around kl (midvalley-sg wang-fahrenheit-pavilion) on friday. we got matching t-shirts from uniqlo and he bought me a pair of ballet flats as the soles of my current pair are on the brink of being torn apart.

say hi, girls :)

caramel cheesecake from nando's, tastes like heaven.

at pavilion - the guys. was focusing on the signage behind them though. 

9. we also chased down a ferrari 458 italia while descending genting (again) after having dinner and a quick stroll. converted the picture from a video i took, hence the noise, this photo just does not do it justice, at all. i guess all of us were on a roll that night as another yellow 458 italia zoomed pass us when we hit the highway.

10. commencing work tomorrow with my psychology lecturer in uni as a part-time research assistant, nervous! my first job in my 22 years of life, keeping my fingers crossed!

reachfortheskies

who knew job-hunting would be such a pain in the behind. plus the fact that admin staffs in uni do not have the courtesy to reply your emails that were sent and resent over the course of 2 weeks. will call in tomorrow, guess we just have to do what we have to do :/ and cross our fingers.
