Unbreak My Heart…

Rainforest World Music Festival (RWMF) is happening today!!! A friend just sms-ed me from Sarawak Cultural Village that it is rainning cats and dogs there. Ehem, probably Kuching is not to happy to welcome this one big shot coming down to officiate the event. I will go to the event tomorrow afternoon Can’t wait to experience the fun!!!

It is time for another Friday’s post. Actually I want to put up the song ‘Addicted’ from Simple Plan, after my ‘Addict-ED‘ post that day, but I overheard this song that day and I was hypnotised by her voice again . I am a big fan of Toni Braxton. I love her husky voice. Er.. I have a thing for girls with husky voice.. (Please call me if you have such voice.. )

This song is the second biggest single by a female artist ever (after Whitney Houston’s I Will Always Love You) and it is from her best album and most successful album - Secrets.

Don’t leave me in all this pain
Don’t leave me out in the rain
Come back and bring back my smile
Come and take these tears away
I need your arms to hold me now
The night are so unkind
Bring back those nights when I held you beside me

Un-break my heart
Say you’ll me again
Undo this hurt you caused
When you walked out the door
And walked out of my life
Un-cry these tears
I cried so many nights
Un-break my heart
My heart

Take back that sad word good-bye
Bring back the joy to my life
Don’t leave me here with these tears
Come and kiss that pain away
I can’t forget the day you left
Time is so unkind
And life is so cruel without you here beside me

Un-break my heart
Say you’ll love me again
Undo this hurt you caused
When you walked out the door
And walked out of my life
Un-cry these tears
I cried so many nights
Un-break my heart
My heart

Don’t leave me in all this pain
Don’t leave me out in the rain
Bring back the nights when I held you beside me

Un-break my heart
Say you’ll love me again
Undo this hurt you caused
When you walked out the door
And walked out of my life
Un-cry that tears
I cried so many, many nights
Un-break my

Un-break my heart
Come back and say you love me
Un-break my heart
Sweet darlin’
Without you I just can’t go on
Can’t go on….

Look Me in the Eyes and Stand by Me..

When I first listen to this song.. I thought it was a girl singing the song. What with the melody of the song I like the song because of the ‘lazy’ way of singing it.. dragging the lines.. hahaha! It feels a bit slow mo.. Like this..

OOoooOOhhhhhhhh yeahhhhhhaaaaaaaaahhhhh

Whennnnnn you looooooooook me in the eyeeeeeesssssssssss,
And tell me that you loveeeeeeeeeeeeeee meeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee.
Everything’s alright,
When you’re right here byyyyyyyyy my sideeeeeeeeee.
When you loooooooooooooooooooooooook me in the eyes,
I catch a glimpse of heaven.
I find my paradiseeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee,
When you look me in the eyes.

Ok, I exaggerate but it does sounds that way to me.. I don’t know how to describe. It’s like the singer don’t want to sing to song but forced to.. Ish.. senang cakap macam teran taik bah!

Jonas Brothers - When You Look Me In The Eyes

If the heart is always searching,
Can you ever find a home?
I’ve been looking for that someone,
I’ll never make it on my own.
Dreams can’t take the place of loving you,
There’s gotta be a million reasons why it’s true

When you look me in the eyes,
And tell me that you love me.
Everything’s alright,
When you’re right here by my side.
When you look me in the eyes,
I catch a glimpse of heaven.
I find my paradise,
When you look me in the eyes.

How long will I be waiting,
To be with you again
Gonna tell you that I love you,
In the best way that I can.
I can’t take a day without you here,
You’re the light that makes my darkness disappear.

When you look me in the eyes,
And tell me that you love me.
Everything’s alright,
When you’re right here by my side.
When you look me in the eyes,
I catch a glimpse of heaven.
I find my paradise,
When you look me in the eyes.

More and more, I start to realize,
I can reach my tomorrow,
I can hold my head high,
And it’s all because you’re by my side.

When you look me in the eyes,
And tell me that you love me.
Everything’s alright,
When you’re right here by my side.
When I hold you in my arms
I know that it’s forever
I just gotta let you know
I never wanna let you go

Cause when you look me in the eyes.

And tell me that you love me.
Everything’s alright,
When you’re right here by my side.
When you look me in the eyes,
I catch a glimpse of heaven.
I find my paradise,
When you look me in the eyes.
Oh

I heard this song that day… It reminds me of my younger days..

Stand by me yor!! Never leave me alone.

Oasis - Stand By Me

Made a meal and threw it up on Sunday
I’ve got a lot of things to learn
Said I would and I believe in one day
Before my heart starts to burn.

So whats the matter with you?
Sing me something new … Don’t you know
The cold and wind and rain don’t know
They only seem to come and go, away

Times are hard when things have got no meaning
I’ve found a key upon the floor
Maybe you and I will not believe in the things we find behind the door

Stand By Me — Nobody knows the way it’s gonna be
Stand By Me — Nobody knows the way it’s gonna be
Stand By Me — Nobody knows the way it’s gonna be

If you’re leaving will you take me with you
I’m tired of talking on my phone
But there is one thing I can never give you
My heart will never be your home

ps: Going back hometown - Sarikei tonight Hiatus for the weekend. Staying away from the shits that is flying around, hitting the fan. Run Forrest RUN!!!

OH MEIN GOTT!!! I’m Yours!!

Tonight..

I won’t hesitate no more, no more..

It cannot wait, I’m yours..

Well no no..

Well open up… and

Let me see…

I try to be chill but…

You are so hot that I melted..

I’ve been spending way too long checking my….

And bending over backwards just to try….

There’s no need to complicate

Our time is short..

This is our fate..

I’m yours… Ahhhhh.. I’m yours…

OH MEIN GOTT!!! I just butchered a beautiful song… I am so sorry… I love this song very much. I can’t stop listening to it.. Especially the intro part.. Yum yum… so ’summer-ish’..

Friday the 13th

Friday the 13th.

Watched Incredible Hulk last Wednesday. Verdict? 6/10.

A lot of chases, transformation into the green monster and back again, a love story, and two monsters clawing at each other as the villain becomes a monster, too. A lot of noise. It is a lot better than Ang Lee’s Hulk. Not very much a typical comic movie, well, you actually can watch it minus the special effects and it is still good.

Edward Norton is always an interesting actor, and he brings a distinctive presence to the proceedings. Remember Fight Club? Go watch it for the supersize ‘wrestling’ actions (and Liv Tyler.. ) Oh, Tony Stark also appears in the movie Who? Clue: Ironman

This is something to read on a gloomy Friday

Malaysian Mathematician

It is most alarming that many Malaysian schools teach our children the wrong things. I mean can the children really apply what they are taught in school later in life? For example, can you imagine a mathematics question in a recent examination as follows?

“If an egg costs fifty sen, and if you buy 1/8 of the egg, how much would you have to pay ?”

Who in Heaven’s name will want to buy 1/8 of an egg ? The shopkeeper will probably think you are crazy and he will be equally stupid to break the egg and measure 1/8 for you.

Yet, this is how they structure the questions in Malaysian schools. Why not pose questions that would be more useful later in life when you go out into the world to earn your living ?

To help Malaysia ’s Ministry of Education to better face the realities of life, we are suggesting some questions they could use in our classrooms.

QUESTION 1.

If you drive from Kuala Lumpur to Penang along the PLUS Highway and there are four speed traps along the way and if each speed trap would cost you RM300.00 in fines, how much in fines would you accumulate by the time you reach Penang ?

ANSWER (Choose one):

1. I would not suffer any fines as the oncoming cars would flash their headlights and I would slow down before coming to the speed trap.

2. I would only need to pay a total of RM80.00 as I would pay a RM20.00 bribe at each speed trap.

3. I would not be stopped as I am an AMNO Wakil Rakyat so I am exempted from speed traps.

QUESTION 2.

If your company is awarded a RM150 million government contract, and you make a 20% profit, how much profit would be at the end of the contract period ?

ANSWER (Choose one):

1. I will not be making a 20% profit as I would have to pay the Minister 10% and AMNO 5%.

2. I would make 30% profit, which is the progress payment I receive, after which I will abandon the project and let the government call for re-tender.

3. My company will not make any profit at all as I will siphon out all the profits and show a loss to avoid paying corporate tax.

QUESTION 3.

If the ruling party obtained 54% of the popular votes the last election and won 151 or 80% of the seats, and if it saw an increase of 10% in votes this election, how many more seats would it gain?

ANSWER (Choose one):

1. The ruling party will not show a 10% increase in votes, as it will stuff the ballot box with another 20% to give it a 30% vote increase.

2. The ruling party will win which are the newly created seats in the delineation exercise recently done.

3. The ruling party has already decided it will win 90% of the seats and the votes have nothing to do with it.

QUESTION 4.

If the national petroleum company, Petronas, pays a 5% royalty to Terengganu State and if the amount paid is RM800,000,000 per year, how much should Petronas have in the bank accumulated over the last 25 years ?

ANSWER (Choose one):

1. Nobody is supposed to know as Petronas need not show its accounts to anyone except the Prime Minister and this information comes under the Official Secrets Act.

2. Petronas earns only 50% of its petroleum revenue from Terengganu so Petronas’ total income accumulated in the banks over 25 years should be RM800 billion.

3. Petronas has nothing accumulated in the bank as all the money will be spent bailing out companies and finance mega projects.

*****************************************

And this something to play on a boring Friday:

I am flying to Kuching tomorrow 10am. Good bye and see you somewhere in the nearest future people!

Signing off with a song

The Calling - Wherever You Will Go
So lately, I’ve been wonderin
Who will be there to take my place
When I’m gone, you’ll need love
To light the shadows on your face
If a great wave should fall
It would fall upon us all
And between the sand and stone
Could you make it on your own

[Chorus:]
If I could, then I would
I’ll go wherever you will go
Way up high or down low
I’ll go wherever you will go

And maybe, I’ll find out
The way to make it back someday
To watch you, to guide you
Through the darkest of your days
If a great wave should fall
It would fall upon us all
Well I hope there’s someone out there
Who can bring me back to you

[Chorus]

Runaway with my heart
Runaway with my hope
Runaway with my love

I know now, just quite how
My life and love might still go on
In your heart and your mind
I’ll stay with you for all of time

[Chorus]

If I could turn back time
I’ll go wherever you will go
If I could make you mine
I’ll go wherever you will go

Kungfu Panda, Over You & Euro 2008

I went to watch Kungfu Panda with Drumsticks yesterday.  We had a good time.    We had dinner together and she insisted to pay for it, saying it is a farewell dinner.  Thanks dear, you don’t have to pay for dinner actually. I will be back for more dinner and movie sessions with you   I will be missing you.. a lot  

Kungfu Panda is fun to watch. I laughed my ass off watching the movie. Jack Black is one fine actor, I loved watching him on screen since I saw his acting in School of Rock and The Holiday. If you are looking for a good laugh, go and watch Kungfu Panda.

I am supposed to fly to Kuching tomorrow, but my company asked me to postpone my flight to next Saturday, 14 Jun. So much for rushing me to get ready and booked a ticket for me.  Good thing is, I still have one week to pack my stuffs and I guess I will spend the time meeting most of my friends before saying goodbye  It is time to meet up with those I yet to meet in person. Angeles? NoktahHitam? Zewt? Let’s go for a quickie? (Not that quickie lah! Teh tarik.. coffee? )

Euro 2008 is around the corner.  I think the mascots are quite fugly.  I love football. I always consider myself a fan of Argentina and Arsenal. Yes, I do not support local football because they suck donkey’s cock. I watched them play many times, and tell you, it is not good for health. If you have heart problem, better do not watch. Go watch wrestling instead. 

I love Argentina and Arsenal for the style of football they play. Both teams play with such style and creativity, changing position all the time, moving the ball among themselves so quickly and well known for their tough and swift attacking/defensive football. They play free-flowing, attack-minded, adventurous football that is very entertaining to watch. I do not support clear favourite in any sport, I prefer supporting the underdogs or the one that I think will pose the best chance against the favourite team. Weird?  So far I yet to get it right, that is why you yet to see Argentina or Arsenal winning something worthy, or at least keeping what they won before.  Muahahahahahaha! Probably that is why I do not support ManYoo, Brasil or Ferrari I love Carlos Tevez anyway. The guy is awesome!! He is the only ManYoo player in my Fantasy Football team  

This Euro 2008, I am going to support Holland to be the winner!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  How about you??? :)Football freaks, let’s get ready for actions starting this Sunday morning! Euro 2008 will take place in Austria and Switzerland from 7 June to 29 June 2008.

Song for today. It is a Friday’s post… as usual theme song for today is…

Chris Daughtry - “Over You”

Well, I never saw it coming.
I should’ve started running
A long, long time ago.
And I never thought I’d doubt you,
I’m better off without you
More than you, more than you know.
I’m slowly getting closure.
I guess it’s really over.
I’m finally getting better.
And now I’m picking up the pieces.
I’m spending all of these years
Putting my heart back together.
‘Cause the day I thought I’d never get through,
I got over you.

You took a hammer to these walls,
Dragged the memories down the hall,
Packed your bags and walked away.
There was nothing I could say.
And when you slammed the front door shut,
A lot of others opened up,
So did my eyes so I could see
That you never were the best for me.

Well, I never saw it coming.
I should’ve started running
A long, long time ago.
And I never thought I’d doubt you,
I’m better off without you
More than you, more than you know.
I’m slowly getting closure.
I guess it’s really over.
I’m finally getting better.
And now I’m picking up the pieces.
I’m spending all of these years
Putting my heart back together.
‘Cause the day I thought I’d never get through,
I got over you.

Well, I never saw it coming.
I should’ve started running
A long, long time ago.
And I never thought I’d doubt you,
I’m better off without you
More than you, more than you know.

Well, I never saw it coming.
I should’ve started running
A long, long time ago.
And I never thought I’d doubt you,
I’m better off without you
More than you, more than you know.
I’m slowly getting closure.
I guess it’s really over.
I’m finally getting better.
And now I’m picking up the pieces.
I’m spending all of these years
Putting my heart back together.
Well I’m putting my heart back together,
‘Cause I got over you.
Well I got over you.
I got over you.
‘Cause the day I thought I’d never get through,
I got over you.
