I want an exciting life
A life stretched to its fullest potential
Used to what it was created to achieve
God has a destiny for me
I believe communication is the key to successful relationships
And relationships is the key to life
Without love, all this will be impossible
I value a friend above performance
My close friends must be people who are committed to progress
They must have a proven character
They are people of integrity
They must be people with Big dreams and actions just as big
HAHA

Thanks for a wonderful week. :D
Recently I was given some songs by Norah Jones. Here's one that's really beautiful and meaningful. :)
Artist: Norah Jones Song: What Am I to You
What am I to you Tell me darling true To me you are the sea Vast as you can be And deep the shade of blue
When you're feeling low To whom else do you go See I cry if you hurt I'd give you my last shirt Because I love you so
If my sky should fall Would you even call Opened up my heart I never want to part I'm giving you the ball
When I look in your eyes I can feel the butterflies I love you when you're blue Tell me darlin true What am I to you
Yah well if my sky should fall Would you even call Opened up my heart Never want to part I'm giving you the ball
When I look in your eyes I can feel the butterflies Could you find a love in me Could you carve me in a tree Don't fill my heart with lies
I will you love when you're blue Tell me darlin true What am I to you What am I to you What am I to you
Here's another song by her, the lyrics are "Awwwwww..." HAHA
Here goes..
Artist: Norah Jones Song: Come Away With Me
Come away with me in the night Come away with me And I will write you a song
Come away with me on a bus Come away where they can't tempt us With their lies
I want to walk with you On a cloudy day In fields where the yellow grass grows knee-high So won't you try to come
Come away with me and we'll kiss On a mountaintop Come away with me And I'll never stop loving you
And I want to wake up with the rain Falling on a tin roof While I'm safe there in your arms So all I ask is for you To come away with me in the night Come away with me

It was fun! haha..
Saturday night, my whole family went down to church! my sis's friend Jonthan went too..haha..it was the 2nd last session of the marriage series.. so mom and dad were given a rose and a cosage..and they renewed their vows! haha..Awww... Then we had rachel in the car and went to newton mrket for dinner! HAHA! i tell u..i think we spent more than $100 that meal..we kinda split to order the food and then the food just kept coming..haha..everybody ordered Extra to Share..how caring...and all the food were real good that i got bloated..i havent felt like this in a long while man. haha..here's a shot at the dinner table.. one big happy family huh! hahahaha!
oh..and i had to drive jonathan and rachel home cos my parents had to be at somewhere else.. i was feeling so full it was hard to drive. i was really tired, and later that night, i went to bed early! it was so hard to sleep..think because of the fried food and oil, my throat was so dry! i had to get a 1.5 litre bottle of water after 2 hrs of strugging to sleep. and still, i was just adding water to the already full stomach of food digesting. so i missed breakfast the next day. had a little lunch...and oh..had 3 meals and a pretty filling Al Ameen prata dinner today...

search on wikipedia.org
on emotional health or mental health. haha. i think its really fun to read encyclopedias. u learn lotsa stuff..haha
One way to think about mental health is by looking at how effectively and successfully a person functions. Feeling capable and competent; being able to handle normal levels of stress, maintain satisfying relationships, and lead an independent life; and being able to "bounce back," or recover from difficult situations, are all signs of mental health.

alright...lets review today..
i realise my room now needs VERY high maintenence. BECAUSE...my mattress is on the floor..haha..so i see all the dust and all(ESPECIALLY THE DOG HAIR!!!!! ARRGH!!!)..same goes for the carpet. so i gotta vacuum everyday i think. HAHA.. and my drumset. i just cleaned it like 3 weeks ago, and the metal parts starting to get dirty again..u know those oil marks become green rusty things..so i gotta clean it really often.. to accsss my wardrobe, i have to walk across my matteress!! and so that has to be cleaned too! oh man...hahaha..
the downside of sleeping so close to the floor? other than the dust. guess what. Cold air sinks. i tell u..it really maximises the use of the aircon! hahaha..its south pole down here.
the drums are good! now that the room is so much emptier, the bass drum sounds AWESOME! and the drums are against a corner..so when u hit the toms, u really feel the vibrations. feels really SHIOK! with my Huge Hi-Fi speaker just behind my drumset, wooh! Just adds to the coolness! haha. i'm so gunna buy my bass amp soon. maybe get a keyboard in my room too. HAHA! then the next mission will be to erm..sound pad my room..wahaha..before my neighbours start knockin on my door..
pics pics. some old ones. here..
