Alexz Johnson – 2 A.M.

Snow falls on the city
White on white
It’s the color of hope
On an unforgiving night

You kissed me into ruins
Sin on sin
Now I’ve got to love your love letters written on my skin
I can’t tell the stars from the downtown lights

If I said I was truly over you
My heart would say amen
But I’d give in to the cold caress of 2 A.M.
If I admit I can’t get used to this
Will my heart break again?
As I fall
Into the waiting arms of 2 A.M.

Someone scratching music
Through the walls
Sirens weaving through the streets
I must have missed your call

I’m gathering up these nights
Black on black
I know your voice like it’s my own and it makes my heart go slack
I can’t tell the stars from the downtown lights

If I said I was truly over you
My heart would say amen
But I’d give in to the cold caress of 2 A.M.
If I admit I can’t get used to this
Will my heart break again?
As I fall
Into the waiting arms of 2 A.M.

If I said I was truly over you
My heart would say amen
But I’d give in to the cold caress of 2 A.M.
If I admit I can’t get used to this
Will my heart break again?
As I fall
Into the waiting arms of 2 A.M.

Last night was the first time I ate chocolate in its entity in ~8 months because I had a sudden craving and was lucky enough to find Switzerland kitkat in the fridge. It made me happy yesterday but I really regret it now ): (The head is killing me can you believe it?!!) Yes I’ve been instructed to avoid chocolate/cheese as far as possible but if you know me I can be quite stubborn at times heeeheeeeee.

So I’m currently rolling around on my bed and blogging from my iPod because there are very few things I can do now besides being a sloth. Life has been revolving around Math revision and reading the WSS handouts for the past few days. Not very exciting if you ask me, but I like routine and love the company (:

Oh it’s terrible I’m going to try sleeping again goodnight world ):

Michael Buble – Hold On

Didn’t they always say we were the lucky ones
I guess that we were once
Babe, we were once

But luck will leave you cause
It is a faithless friend
And in the end when life has got you down
You’ve got someone here that you can wrap your arms around

So hold on to me tight
Hold on to me tonight
We are stronger here together
Than we could ever be alone
So hold on to me
Don’t you ever let me go

There’s a thousand ways for things to fall apart
But it’s no one’s fault
No it’s not my fault

Maybe all the plans we made would not work out
But I have no doubt even though it’s hard to see
I’ve got faith in us and I believe in you and me

So hold on to me tight
Hold on, I promise it’ll be alright
Cause it’s you and me together
And baby all we’ve got is time
So hold on to me, hold on to me tonight

There’s so many dreams that we have given up
Take a look at all we’ve got
And with this kind of love
What we’ve got here is enough

So hold on to me tight
Hold on, I promise it’ll be alright
Cause we are stronger here together
Then we could ever be alone
Just hold on to me
Don’t you ever let me go
Hold on to me, it’s gonna be alright
Hold on to me tonight
They always say we were the lucky ones

How would you react to having a whole flurry of people you wouldn’t want to meet for all the wrong reasons enter your life?

How would you feel after their abrupt appearance when your secret wish is to be one of them in the future?

If only my thoughts could be put on a leash – Then maybe I wouldn’t be this confused.

• Today was binge-day : Injested heaps of oatmeal squares & mangosteens throughout the afternoon and by heaps, I really mean HEAPS )<
• Stomach feels queasy => The combination of oatmeal squares + mangosteens = lethal
• Big toenail on the right foot is in such a bloody (literally) mess thanks to my ultimate clumsiness ):
• Cleaning up this computer’s hard drive which is 6 years old is no easy feat, I think I can name all of the folders in alphabetical order with my eyes closed (okay exaggerating haha)
• I have tons of old recordings that I’m listening to now for the first time in my life.. Goosebumps aplenty?
• CANNOT WAIT FOR SITEX!!!!!!! VAIO CW HERE I COME (: My only grouse is its thickness (the rest of its specs are amazing!!) and I’m so glad it doesn’t look so thick in real-life as compared to pictures posted online (:
• I can exercise already because the cardiologist (lili’s dad!!!) told me to live life normally (: He suspects I have the same problem as my sister (SVT Ablation) and told me try to record the palpitations with the portable ECG monitor which I must have with me all the time.
• Still thinking whether I should go for training tomorrow ‘cos I feel bad that Yuanyi’s the only girl going, but first of all I need to think of how to fit my toe with the dangling toenail into a sock without wincing too much :/
• I love green (:
• I have a bad habit of putting songs on repeat for days until I tire of them.
• Sleeeep

Bon voyage and good luck quirky one <3 you'll definitely be missed until the cows come home ): ): ):

OP IS TOMORROW TOMORROW TOMORROW omg I'm rather afraid of Q&A ): I'll probably end up smiling and smiling and smiling………?!!

………

FOCUS ALINA FOCUSSSSS!!!

Mood: sad, nervous, scared, dispirited

“All the world’s a stage,
And all the men and women merely players.”

To those who are feeling down and blue, please cheer up and remember that I love you ♥

My Favourite Highway – Bigger Than Love

We’ve all got scars as big as ours
A token for the pain we hide inside of us
Everyone’s scared that somebody knows
You push it aside, yeah, that’s how it goes
If you’ve ever heard a beating heart
A rhythm for the songs we’re too afraid to sing
Nobody here is perfectly fine
A delicate frame, a fragile design

If there’s a hole in your heart
You gotta pull it together
It takes the courage to start
But now is better than never
It takes a push and a shove
Somehow it’s never enough
And it’s alarming how quickly we forget that

Nothing’s bigger than love
Nothing’s bigger than love, love, love
Nothing’s bigger than love
All you need, all you need, all you need is love

Some people change and some just won’t
You can’t take back the words you wish you’d never said
Promises break and lovers will lie
You hold up your hands and let out a sigh
So smile right before you fall
And lay beside this mess and call it consequence
Somebody said that life isn’t fair
When somebody else was saying a prayer

Nothing’s bigger than love
Nothing’s bigger than love, love, love
Nothing’s bigger than love
All you need, all you need, all you need is

No one’s taking me out
And nothing’s pulling me down
I turn my head to the crowd
This love is big and it’s loud

This is the car in the crash
This is the light in the flash
This is the answer you know
But you’re just too scared ask

If there’s a hole your heart
You gotta pull it together
It takes the courage to start
But now is better than never
It takes a push and a shove
Somehow it’s never enough
Somehow it’s never enough

Nothing’s bigger than love
Nothing’s bigger than love, love, love, love
Nothing’s bigger than love
All you need, all you need, all you need is

All you need, all you need is love
You need love, love
All you need, all you need is love

Close-up shot of one of my milo choc-chip muffins I made in the day (:

Some of the muffins (they look like scones here) lying in one of the horribly dented muffin trays!

My muffins are hideously out of shape thanks to the muffin trays which were in a rather bad condition as they were chucked under other baking materials right at the bottom of the cupboard. Ah well at least the taste isn’t too bad!! I highly suspect they were just being polite but everybody who tried them said they liked it ♥

Today’s event went on smoothly with hardly any glitches (finally something positive in my life) EXCEPT I can’t upload any photos because my memory card suddenly got corrupted… How very timely ain’t it ):

PS Good luck to those who are having their Chinese paper tomorrow!! (: Ji4 de2 dai4 zi4 dian3!!!
