Evanescence- My Immortal

I'm so tired of being here
Suppressed by all my childish fears
And if you have to leave
I wish that you would just leave
'Cause your presence still lingers here
And it won't leave me alone

These wounds won't seem to heal
This pain is just too real
There's just too much that time cannot erase

When you cried I'd wipe away all of your tears
When you'd scream I'd fight away all of your fears
And I held your hand through all of these years
But you still have
All of me

You used to captivate me
By your resonating life
Now I'm bound by the life you've left behind
Your face it haunts
My once pleasant dreams
Your voice it chased away
All the sanity in me

I've tried so hard to tell myself that you're gone
But though you're still with me
I've been alone all along

Sleep Deprived

I thought the long weekend is good for me to catch up on sleep. Unfortunately, i ended up sleeping lesser.

Fri: slept at 2am
Sat: slept at 2am
Sun: slept at 4am

I need SLEEP. a sleep-deprived person suffers from headaches, body lethargic, mind malfunctioning, poor appetite, bad skin and many more.

Besides my bad sleeping habits, I have been drinking everyday this weekend. Overdraft on alcohol, deprived of sleep and not enough H2O intake is causing me to feel a lil groggy and a lil grumpy.

ROAAAARRRRRRRRRRR!!

Baby Boomers

From Wikipedia: "Baby Boomer is a term used to describe a person who was born during the demographic Post-World War II baby boom. The term "baby boomer" is sometimes used in a cultural context, and sometimes used to describe someone who was born during the post-WWII baby boom."

I live in a matured estate and hence, there's a good number of elderly residents around me. They are the baby boomers.

During my first year of stay in my new place, I realised that funerals were rather common. The frequency was about once every 2 weeks or so. It then daunt on me that I am staying in a very matured neighbourhood.

Like a coin that has two sides, living around these elderly has its good and of course, bad.

Today while having dinner at the coffeeshop, this elderly uncle (he should be in his 60s) was clearing my plate. He was very friendly and asked me "hao chi ma"? I replied back politely, "hao chi". He then smiled at me. At that moment, I felt really warm and good at his smile. It's a kind of warm and sincere smile that reaches out to your heart.

Then, while in the lift, another auntie in her 50s striked a short conversation with me. When the door opened, she say bye to me. Again, I could feel the same sincerity i felt with the uncle.

As I reached my doorstep, I looked at my neighbour's unit. The auntie and uncle has been helping us to keep our shoes and floor mat everytime there's a block washing.

I think generally; the baby boomers, having lived a life of hardship are more simple and sincere. They are frugal yet rich in hearts. If you look around, the Gen X and Gen Y don't really chat with you in the lift. They do not smile as much and they prefer to live behind closed doors. I am guilty of all of these as well.

Of course, this is just generalisation and personal opinions. :PP

New colours~

oops, my blog has been dull for too long. black backgrounds, long stories, not much pictures, no music or tweets... and a horrible lack of updates..
decided to revamp my pathetic blog... but hey, I am not that creative so please don't expect too much.

I promise I will update more though. I try.

And so, for a new start, I changed the background to a dark grey. My fonts are now light pale pink and my headings in a brighter note of pink. Hey, I love the grey-pink combination!

I hope it's pleasing to your eyes toO!
