Incubus - Love hurts



Tonight we drink to youth
And holding fast to truth
(I don't want to lose what I had as a boy.)
My heart still has a beat
But love is now a feat.
(As common as a cold day in LA.)
Sometimes when I'm alone, I wonder
Is there a spell that I am under
Keeping me from seeing the real thing?

Love hurts...
But sometimes it's a good hurt
And it feels like I'm alive.
Love sings,
When it transcends the bad things.
Have a heart and try me,
'cause without love I won't survive.

I'm fettered and abused,
I stand naked and accused
(Should I surface this one man submarine?)
I only want the truth
So tonight we drink to youth!
(I'll never lose what I had as a boy.)
Sometimes when I'm alone I wonder
Is there a spell that I am under
Keeping me from seeing the real thing?

Love hurts...
But sometimes it's a good hurt
And it feels like I'm alive.
Love sings,
When it transcends the bad things.
Have a heart and try me,
'cause without love I won't survive.

saturday was the last time i did something for the first time.
i cried because of a guy.
hah. what a joke. i never thought i would.
you know how they say no man is worth your tears and the one that is will never make you cry?
well what if, even if you know the guy's not worth it,
you still.. love him?

hey, have you forgotten me already?
so easily?
i never gave myself to another the way i gave it to you.
don't even recognise the ways you hurt me do you?

i'm not sure what i should do now.
joyce says,"if you think that he will react or do something to solve things, then go ahead. If he's not going to do anything, just let things be. Like what you told me, when u let go of something, something much better will come along."
wuh.
i think i don't practice what i preach.
x_x
but i'll try.

then we sat down at the table then i took her phone to play a rollercoaster game (which is totall fun! heh!)
and i got very engrossed in the game..
and i was drinking while playing (as in drinking from the straw while the cup was on the table)
then i finished one round of the game,
and sucked on the straw of my drink and realized i had finished it without realizing!
so cherlyn was sitting opposite me,

and i was like, *sucks the last few drops of drink*  *cries* "cherlyn! my drink finish!"
[ahaha sry im laughing a lot now, just thinking bout what happened]
then she gave me a stunned look  "shalyn! this is your drink! (points to the cup on her side which was 1/4 full)"
me: *blur*  "huh.."
cherlyn:*now giving a very amused look* " i swapped your drink la! you didnt even notice!"
me: "ehhh!!!!  ......  .........   eehhhh!!!"

hahaha!
 so funny la!

haha okay then we had data logging, quite irritating.

today after school, xinyi came over to my house, and she taught me some A maths heh!
i don't think i could have done those questions without her.
A maths always has me stumped.

okay then we were s'posed to meet win, dew, pun, weng n gwen at this cafe called minds cafe(the kind that has board games for u to play) , but plans changed, and dew pang seh-ed us AGAIN!

so we ended up going to kallang macs to play bang!

pun sent an sms to xinyi saying," I will be there as soon as i could, this is probably my last msg, my bat is dying. Wait for me my dear, my xinyi."

HAHAHA i just started laughing when i saw that la! the combined effect of how funny that msg was, and how xinyi always cracks me up.. hilarious man..

sounds like pun's pet bat was dying and pun was gonna leave for some faraway land where he wouldnt be able to contact xinyi, and this was his goodbye msg. ROFL la!

okay then we played bang at macs, SO FUN!

WIN KEPT GETTING THE RENEGADE card!!!
he's such a super good actor, i got cheated by him a LOT of times. =_=

XINYI! i think, is an awesome sheriff.. but then later on she got killed first twice in a row.. poor xinyi!

weng was erm.. unlucky as a sheriff hahaha!!

pun was hilarious as usual, and not bad at the game once he got used to it leh!

gwen, woah.. gets all the nice cards!

haha, so we played from like, 7 till 11, hehe! which was 1 hour past win n pun's hostel curfew.. then when they got to the hostel gate they ran in like crazy! so funny la..
today was a funny day!
xD

guh.. O lvl results were out today.
cherlyn! awesome! u got A1 for chinese!

and now i'm very nervous bout O lvls,
coz i'm real afraid i won't be able to get the results i want..
it seems so hard, now that i've seen what the others have got..
scared! im scared!!
>_<

='(

ah, but then i remember,
what Jesus had to do to save us,
and how much pain, humiliation and heartbreak he had to endure.
and O levels become like, a grain of sand compared to that.



and then, i remember,
the greatness of God,
isaiah 40:12
"who has measured the waters in the hollow of His hand,
or with the breadth of His hand marked off the heavens?
who has held the dust of the earth in a basket,
or weighed the mountains on the scales
and the hills in a balance?
who can fathom the spirit of the Lord,
 or instruct the Lord as his counselor?"
what are Olevels compared to that?

and then i remember,
matthew 7:7
"ask and it will be given to you,
seek and you will find;
knock and the door will be opened to you.
for everyone who asks receoves; 
those who seek find;
 and to those who knock,
the door will be opened."

and so i have asked,
and God will provide.
maybe i won't get the result i want in the end,
but it'll be okay,
cuz its all in God's plan.

i think the word 'wistful' really fits me right now..
in the dictionary, its 
"thoughtful and rather sad, often from longing for something with little hope."

but thank God that no one has to feel wistful to feel His love.
its unconditional and freely flowing ^^


asparagus so cute!!!



The time was 12:53 AM

i've read the draft of midnight sun..
the coming book thats sort of part of the twilight series and its in edward's view..
and i realized that,
bella loved edward so much, without realizing that edward loved her as much, if not more.
and edward loved bella so much, without realizing that bella loved him as much, if not more.
there is this part in midnight sun, where edward find out that bella's friend likes a guy at school, and when he reads the mind of that guy (lets call him A), he finds out that A feels exactly the same way that bella's friend does.
they both like each other, yet feel.. helpless?
they feel like its a lost cause.. or something like that.
and edward was blind not to notice that maybe thats the same situation that he and bella were in.

an then i realized.. maybe i'm the one who's blind towards the people around her.
do you look at me and feel the same way i do..? the same feeling of.. wistfulness..?

but i feel like, nothing can happen between us anymore.. not unless you can change. and theres probably only, what? a 20% chance of that happening?

and that part was for ___.

and this part is for joycepoon.

No man or woman is worth your tears.
The only one who is, will never make you cry.
If you love someone, put their name in a circle, instead of a heart.
Hearts can break, but circles go on forever.
Everyone hears what you say. Friends listen to what you say.
Best friends listen to what you don't .
If all my friends were to jump off a bridge, I wouldn't jump with them. I'd be at the bottom to catch them.
Don't frown, because you never know who's falling in love with your smile !
It takes a minute to have a crush on someone, an hour to like someone and a day to love someone.
but it takes a lifetime to forget someone.
If you judge people, you have no time to love them.

It's Is Easy To Write Someone's Name In Your Heart,
But It Is Difficult To Erase Someone's Name From Your Heart.
It's Easy For Someone To Enter Your Heart,
But It Is Difficult For You To Enter Into Someone's Heart.

~compiled from a few places, and this is for everyone out there, especially xinyi. coz i think you still like ___ right..?

i hope you know that you have my support in whatever you do (with some exceptions, like drinking urself to death).
if at any time at all, you feel like the world around u is falling apart again, know that i'm still there. and im not part of that world thats breaking into pieces.


and this part is for cherlyn.

can i ask you for a favour?
whenever you think of me, can you also remember that i really want you to have more faith in yourself?
don't worry about your results for chinese.
i'm very sure they'll be awesome.
you are awesome.
the nicest person i've met.
and maybe thats why so many guys like you, haha.
just, believe in yourself okay?
jia you!


and xinyi, i will never forget you. don't worry about that.

new year.
bleh.
i think i hate it.
i didnt want 2008 to end even though it wasnt really the best year of my life.
haha.
what with the drama and all.
but it was definitely the most evenful.

2008 was the year:
- i went to new zealand and studied for 6 months,
- i came back from nz,
- i went out with joycepoon a lot,
- i started liking my class a lot
- i failed physics
- i got better in playing guitar
- i went through a lot with joycepoon
- i met leeshuning
- i got a part time job for the first time
- i got serious about someone
- i felt like i really loved that someone
- i gave up on that someone.

yup that about sums it all haha.
so much happened,
and that makes life so much more exciting!
maybe thats why i hated for 2008 to end.
its not that its my O lvl year this year.
i consider that nothing compared to how much i'll miss those times we shared in 2008.

thanks all you people who made my life cool!
yeah thats definitely you reading this post.
