Back when I was a child, before life removed all the innocence
My father would lift me high and dance and then
Spin me around till I fell asleep
Then up the stairs he would carry me
And I knew for sure I was loved

When I and my mother would disagree
To get my way I would run from her to him
He’d make me laugh just to comfort me
Then finally make me do just what my mama said
Later that night when I was asleep
He left a dollar under my sheet
Never dreamed that he would be gone from me

If I could steal one final glance, another chance, another walk with him
I’d play a song that would never ever end
Cause I’d love love love
To dance with my father again


Every night I fall asleep and this is all I ever dream





So marks the 10th year today.
The pain that has been etched a decade then.



My once perfect and sheltered life was torn the moment you left.


I would fall asleep
Only in hopes of dreaming
That everything would be like it was before
But nights like this it seems are slowly fleeting
They disappear as reality is crashing to the floor


You know, it still feels so surreal.
Many a times I'll be wondering where you'd gone to.
If you're really leading another life somewhere.
And then I'll find myself weeping silently.
Cos I know you've gone so far away.
Much as I miss you.
I havent the courage to browse through the photo albums.
To be reminded of the harsh reality.



I know you're watching over us.
I know you do hear our prayers.
And I know...



You'll never be forgotten.
Never will be.

I'll usually choose to go light on meals for sundays or mondays.
Acts like a detox from all that hearty meals thruout the week.
Now chasoba is one of my fav options for sundays.
Quaker's oatmeal porridge is also a gd option for breakfast/dinner!
Ystd night grandma cooked some beans porridge.
Its really bland but a nice alternative to the usual white porridge.



The porridge with assorted beans.


My breakfast =) I'm getting better at cooking this! Added some cranberries for the sweet craving.


I was at the Food Hotel Asia show 2 weeks back with juicy and her mom.
We spent close to 4hrs walking up and down the 6 halls.
Decided we were too tired to continue with the other halls.
Got to 'graze' on those 'new' food from all over the world.
Think crystal mooncakes?
Grey looking calamari-roe cubes sushi? that was really gd...

Its a pity that all sales of products are prohibited for the show.
Hopefully they bring it to the stores soon!

At the wine&spirits section we sampled some mongolian vodka? and some new flavored choya.
The choya is so smooth and sweet. very ladies' drink.
We actually got really full from all the food samples.
So much gelato and yoghurt.
Being the typical.
We asked for one of each flavours.
Ended up throwing them away cos we couldnt finish them and also cos we wanted more gelato!
Damn greedy I know.

ITS SOOO HOT.
Yesterday my uncle told me it was reported 35degree celsius.
Might hit 36 next week.
That is madness.


I went tanning/swimming with jojo and jiaen ystd.
First time i'm doing that in half a year?
And i came home feeling sluggish and 'under the weather'.
Like nauseous and all.
According to smartaleckid (SMA), he says people in Bali or was it Brazil? reported of such symptoms too.
Due to the too hot weather. Gahh.


And it completely doesnt help with my hair's current length.
Not here nor there. Cannot tie up without the loose bits hanging!
Damn irritating.
I'd gone to monsoon with ying on sunday wanting to cut it REAL SHORT.
Nvm the fact that i just had a cut less than a month back.
But all the way to freeaking novena and raymond didnt wanna cut my hair! =(
Well yes it was running late.
And he felt that it wasnt necessary as the cut was still good?
ARGH.
Now I have to wait till i'm done with exams.


The weather is so yuck that it makes me wanna throw up.
Ewww.
Completely killed all appetite.
I'm gonna cook myself some soba.
Served chillllllled.
Thats my latest cooking addiction.
Ditch those maggie mee!
Oh and Cook is sexxxay isnt he?
Always be my baby!
My other new addiction :)


Literal heat aside.
There's also the exams fever.
Too HOT to handle really.
Gowsh.
