A song for you

A song written. One I never managed to fully express to you. Here goes.

Verse:
I'd wake up to these thoughts of you,
The moment the day brightens up with lights.
Anxiously I'm waiting for, the time when I would look into those eyes.

Bridge
Each day as I try,
To find my way, to that place by your side
Do you know its hard,
When I'm holding in these feelings that grow
I just want you to know.

Chorus
Sometimes, when I change my point of view
Its hard cause it feels so right with you
I wonder if you'd have any clue, that
I'm here and i'm falling for you

If you would only realise,
How I'd wanna look into those eyes
And tell you that if feels so right with you
To tell you that I'm falling for you

Verse 2
As each day slowly passes by
I wonder if you'd be the one
Who'd fill these spaces, between these hands of mine.

Hope you guys like it :) Randomly wrote it. I don't think she remembers this, but yeah. Love the first verse. Constructive comments pleasseeee

As Always,

Yes, you.

I thought that you'd be loving me.
I thought you were the one who'd stay forever.
But now forever's come and goneAnd I'm still here alone.

'Cause you were only playing,
You were only playing with my heart.
I was never waiting,
I was never waiting for the tears to start.


[Chorus:]
It was you who put the clouds around me.
It was you who made the tears fall down.
It was you who broke my heart in pieces.
It was you, it was you who made my blue eyes blue.
Oh, I never should have trusted you.

I thought that I'd be all you need.
In your eyes I thought I saw my heaven.
And now my heaven's gone away
And I'm out in the cold.

'Cause you had me believing,
You had me believing in a lie.
Guess I couldn't see it,
I guess I couldn't see it till I saw goodbye.

[Chorus]

'Cause you were only playing,
You were only playing with my heart.
I was never waiting,
I was never waiting for the tears to start.

It was you who put the clouds around me.
It was you.

It was you who put those clouds around me.
It was you who made those tears fall down.
Only you who broke my heart in pieces.
It was you, it was you who made my blue eyes blue.
Oh, I never should have trusted you.


Oh, I never should have trusted you.
Oh, I never should have trusted you.
Oh, I never should have trusted you.



Sucks when you're left behind by the one person you expected to be by your side :'/

To celebrate or not to celebrate?

Hey all  :)
Sorry for the hiatus, i've been really busy lately and now only cause its nearing the holidays, I finally have the time to rest and to write again. I love writing, really. But sleep's much more important knowing that i've so much work to do and all. Like i've mentioned in the previous posts, i'm now working at my dad's metal work company as a sort of manager? Lol. But yeah, at first it did seem tiring but we do get used to things right? :) So now, i'm planning to probably get another job where i'll be working night shifts. Dad mentioned that we might have to cut back on our expenses in order to help my brother, but i thought to myself 'Instead of being so laid-back which makes us have to cut back on our expenses, why don't I work harder? That way, I'd have more to spend on and it'll help my family a lot too with me being able to support one way or another' So yeah, I've decided and i'm probably gonna take the job as a waiter in of the bars in town. The pay's apparently good so i'm sorta looking forward to it :) Just not looking forward to me being tired. Lol.

So anyways, the title says to celebrate or not to celebrate. Well, looking at my current situation, most people wouldn't expect me to. Cause my mom and sis wont be here as they will be in KL and since my brother has his 'situation'. But yeah, I know what my brother would want me doing :) He'd want me to not worry and have as much fun as I can *Hints - So that's what i'm doing* Lol.

Finally went shopping today though I only bought a buttoned-down shirt, white shorts, a belt and ANEWPAIROFCONVERSESNEAKERS :D Was so happy when I went around buying the things especially when I was buying my new shoes :D To be honest, I've been looking forward to this time of the year 'cause its like the only time of the year where I buy my 'Annual new converse sneakers' lol. Yes, I am a converse fanatic. I love the brand for their vintage designs and simplicity :) Odd match but they look really good to me :) So yeah, I'm mainly posting this up cause i'm so excited about my new shoes :) *I sound like a girl don't I?*

Anyways, many happy returns of the day to you readers and I wish you well! VALENTINES DAY IS COMING :) *Cause Chinese New Year's too mainstream* LOL.

Till my next post :) This is for you guys. A song I've been listening to a lot lately.

Dear Aaron,

Ever since we we're kids, being the older brother, pranking and bullying me sorta looked like it came first on your hobby list to me. But then, despite all that, I've always looked to you as any snotty nosed brother would, with respect, fear and awe. Lol. You were always unfair and you always got what you wanted.. Ever since we were young, I've always noted that you had a superiority-complex because you had always wanted to dominate in everything.

 Being so independent because you had to as an older brother, you managed to achieve the things you wanted to. I look up to you for that. And also for the fact that despite being mean 60% of the time when you're around me, I knew that you loved me a lot and that you cared. For that, I somehow always managed to forgive you even when you hurt me, physically and emotionally. Lol. But I guess that's what older brothers do. Toughen up your little brothers. Even till now, my friends tell me that I'd always look sorta intimidated when i'm around you. And that's probably cause of past issues and your stupid superiority-complex.

As a boy, I was always following you everywhere you went. Even if you were off doing mischievous things. Lol. That's cause you were the one person in the world I'd look up to. A role model.. And as the years passed by, through all anger I've built up from your bullying and superiority, I slowly came to despise moments when you were around me. You were my rival. I had to be better than you in everything cause I wanted to shove it in your face that I could be better than you. These were all during Form 1 up to Form 4. I've always despised you because whenever you were around, I'd hardly get my way in things I wanted to do.. But as I grew older, once again, I turned into that snotty nosed boy that admired you for achieving so much in your life.. I bragged to all my friends on your achievements trying to show them that I had such an awesome brother. Then, you had already moved away to K.L. to further your studies. Still, you were always my rival, someone I had to surpass in life to just feel better. Lol.

To be honest, even as I admired you and looked up to you, I always disliked it when you came back. Because when you did, my plans for myself always screwed up. Besides that, we'd always end up arguing with each other mainly because we have very very different point of views on things. It didn't matter if I was right, you always won. Lol. But even through all this, you were always there for me to get me back on my feet even if the ways you used were harsh. And for that, I owe you so much.

What kills me is that the last time you were back, I didn't even bother sending you off. What kills me even more were the last words I heard from you. When you called me last Friday night when I was at my youth gathering and because I had a dance session, I rushed when I talked to you.. Probably, I was the last person in our family you spoke to before what happened to you, happened to you... If I had the chance, I'd go back in time to warn you of what was gonna happen. To cherish our last conversation together... What hurts me so much inside is the fact that that would probably be the last conversation I'll ever have with you. Or probably that that conversation would be the only normal conversation we'd ever have.. Ughh... ( sis came into my room to check on me cause she heard the stupid noises I made )  I'm desperately trying so hard to be strong for her. To be a better older brother so she'd feel alright. So that I would be able to make her focus on other things. She's still so young and she still needs someone older to look to. I still do, and the fact that I've to be the one taking care of things back home scares me somehow. I wish you were here so I'd be able to ask you for advice. So I'd be able to argue with you. So I'd be able to shout at you for being stupid.. I'd take back all those times I was angry at you, all those words I said to anger you, just to have you safe back home.. Please please be alright :/ please please be safe.

Even if when I have other brothers out there, you'd be the only blood brother I have. The best one one could ever wish for. Irreplaceable. I wish I could see you right now, so I could stuff you up with all those chocolates you love and make your acne problem worse.

As always,

Life so far..

How much more worse can things get?
2012 started badly this year in my opinion. First, Japan had an earthquake then recently, the flood scarred the hearts of us Kuchingnites by robbing us of two people who were dearly loved by some of us. But then, up till recently, on Saturday to be specific, the worst thing any brother can ever get came to me. And since then, life's been a living hell for me.

I was in church for the evening mass and coincidentally, I was late for mass.. Was feeling upset cause I don't like being late for things, then I got a call from my dad. At first I thought he just wanted to check up on me so I didn't answer the phone. Then, my mom called. Finding this peculiar, I answered the phone knowing if the both of them had to call me during mass, it had to be an emergency. Mom said something had happened and I had to go over to my uncle's place immediately. Alarmed, because of what happened recently with the floods, I thought an accident had happened, so then I rushed out of the church, ran to my car and drove as fast as I could to my uncle's house.

When I reached, Mom and Dad weren't there, so I had to wait. Aunt said something had happened to my brother which left me even more frightened because he stays in K.L. and we're so far away we can't really do anything. Just so you know, THAT was the worst 15 minutes of my life having to wait for my parents to reach to deliver the bad news. During that time, countless scenarios and possibilities came into my mind making me feel even worse... When my parents came, they delivered the bad news. Something had happened to my brother ( Classified ). When my dad finished talking, I just sat there dumbstruck ever so shocked that something so tragic could happen to me, to my family and especially to my brother. Throughout the whole talk, I was near tears trying to accept the fact that all of this is really happening. My only brother by blood in this world. There is a chance that I may never be able to see him again and to be honest, till now, I am still in shock still trying to see whats really real hoping that it was all just a bad joke/dream.

2 hours later, my parents were on the first ticket to K.L. leaving me to care for my sister, giving me the responsibilities they held. And that's how life has been till now. Me living only with my sister while my parents are there trying their best to get things right. I can't get a job now cause I'm now fully in charge of my dad's business which I've to watch over until God-knows-when they come back. I can't go to my church camp which   

I've been looking forward to for a year.. Its been 3 days since then and I'd barely managed to get sleep. So much pressure is on me and the fact that my life will never be the same anymore scares the hell out of me. I'm glad I've friends who support me even when I am unable to tell them what has truly happened. Life as it is was supposed to happen to me somewhere in the future, not now :( It feels like all the things I'm supposed to feel 15 years from now is all on me now.Oh dear God, I ask of you to provide me with strength and hope to endure this. I lift all that I have now up to you.

I love you Aaron and I hope, I pray you're alright over there. Please be safe :(

As always,

New year? Hmmm

        Well, 2012's finally here and things are changing. Was hoping for a good start with everything and all but things turned unexpectedly bad :/ For one thing, I started the year like anyone would want to, dinner with le crush and then movie after that. But as the days went by, it continued raining and raining and  POOF! We had a flood. And the worst part about the flood was knowing that someone I knew was swept away by the current. Really tragic indeed.. Then again, you'd never truly know what comes and goes. Everything happens in His time.

The day started with me waking to check my phone only to find a text telling me something happened. An accident somewhere outside my previous school ( SMK Batu Lintang ) where someone I knew slipped and fell into a storm drain which had strong currents due to the flood. Immediately I got up trying to remember who she was and of course, I was really shocked when that person was someone I knew. Checked facebook and of course, there were 'reports' going on about the incident. Immediately, my mind relapsed into 'prayer' mode just praying that the victims would be alright. Checking facebook I was really touched/impressed with the groups who were immediately starting up vigils/prayers to pray for the two.

What I found intriguing was what I did when I found out about the accident. As I learnt about the accident, I started to notice my Bible sitting at the corner of my table, untouched after weeks not noticing it till I learnt about the the accident. Like they say 'One only looks for Him when bad things happen'. Then again, this was already on my mind for the past few months and only when this incident happened that I began to actually reflect on what was said. Not only that, another thought popped into my head when I saw people blaming God for this tragedy, mocking Him saying that He was cruel and all that for this.So then, this is for everyone.


Do not hate God when bad things happen. Do not blame Him. Have faith in Him.

Its funny that people start putting the blame on others when things go wrong instead of out-looking the problem and trying to solve it.


Then, later at night, I was very much disgusted by this 'Jonathan John Chin' guy who was criticising the victims of the accident that happened and of course, there was an uproar going about where people threatened to 'beat him up' if the saw him or anything. Of course, he apologized but then again, I don't think that settles anything. You can't take back the words you've said about those innocent victims you criticised. I really wonder what's gonna happen to him. And oh btw, I was one of those people who had intentions of breaking his leg if I ever did see him. Seriously? Who on earth goes on criticising others when they've done nothing to you. Again, I figured this was his plea for attention trying to get others to look at him. One word. Pathetic. But I guess what goes around comes around. You said it, you're gonna get it ;)

















So yeah, Kho Ying Qi and Herman Sihas, my heart goes out to you and I pray, I hope, you're alright out there somewhere. My prayers go out to those affected by this tragedy.
When all is lost, Faith, Hope and Love always remains.
To the victims, especially, Kho Ying Qi, I may have
only known you for a little bit and all but be rest assured, everyone's doing their best to get you home. Someone as joyful and funny as you should never have to go through this. Please, please be safe. Your loved ones are waiting for you.

Oh, don't you say (don't you say) goodbye (goodbye)
          F                       Em
Don't you say (don't you say) goodbye (goodbye)
                   Dm
I'll pick up these broken pieces 'til I'm bleedin'
   G
If that'll make it right


(*Single strum each chord, here on out*)
      F                 G
Cause there'll be no sunlight
Em            Am Gsus2
If I lose you baby
F              G
There'll be no clear skies 
Em            Am Gsus2
If I lose you baby
F              G        E7                 Am          
Just like the clouds my eyes will do the same
            Dm
If you walk away
                 G            G-once
Everyday it will rain, rain, ra-AAA-in

C           Em
Oooh, oooh, oooh
C           Em
Oooh, oooh, oooh

It's a really good song btw, at first I didn't really like it till I actually listened to it. Bruno Mars ftw! :)

As always,
