king kong review

watched king kong. touchy and great. too bad poor king kong gotta die.

the year's going to end soon. time flies so fast when you are enjoying it. another year and yet things have remained constant in some parts of my life. i feel like pouring it all out my blog but on there are some secrets that i want to keep for myself. maybe i should get some advice on how to do that.

anyway, played gokart last monday. i ended up with 4 bruises. 1 on my left leg, 1 on right leg, 1 on left rib and 1 on right rib. but it was all worth it. such an adrenaline drive. would want to do it again soon and hopefully accompanied by more gals.

i enjoyed myself tonight. anyway, time to sleep. good night everyone!

christmas day

officially saying christmas is already over, since it's already a little over midnight.

anyway, my christmas day started way back yesterday midnight. was having coffee with a group of people from around 9-ish. oh la la thamrin. most of them whom i've just met yesterday. anyway, they were quite a fun group.

then went home to zZzzZz... woke up around 9-ish. dilly dally. watched tv. ate breakfast rather unwillingly (i read from an article that we should eat a little carbo in the morning in order to increase our metabolism). then i was off to church.

was late and missed the offerings (second time this month that i missed the offerings). felt so guilty about it. definitely must try to be on time this coming sunday. anyway, they had quite a funny but meaningful play at the church today. teaching us that god's love is a gift. and god's love is not selective.

lunch was at the blue elephant, setiabudi building. together with tere, cha-cha, julie & delon. they serve thai food. rather small serving but food was quite good and authentic. not too pricey, plus we got 15% off due to the anz spot program. anyway, i just googled it and found out that the blue elephant is a part of the jitlada group.

dinner was at home. a total of eleven people came for dinner at our place. rather squeezy but i think my mum loved it. limi cooked really delicious honey glazed pork spare ribs and roasted drumsticks. accompanied by dessert wine and beer.

then a few of us had coffee and a few rounds of big two games at the 24-hour starbucks. had a bad stomache on the car ride home. and since i reached home, i have been going to the toilet twice within the last hour. me and those stomaches.

anyway, i'm glad i had such enjoyable christmas. merry xmas to all of you!

it wouldn't have made any difference

by alison krauss

do you remember the last time i said
if i ever thought of lying
i'd rather think of dying instead
and the last time you called me
to say we were through
how it took a million tears
just to prove they all were for you

but it wouldn't have made any difference,
if you loved me
how could you love me
when it wouldn't have made any difference,
if you loved me
you just did not love me

'cause i know of hundreds of times i could be
in the most unfaithful arms
that you always picture me
though i can't always show proof i was true
no one else could change my mind
or stop me coming home to you

but it wouldn't have made any difference,
if you loved me
how could you love me
when it wouldn't have made any difference,
if you loved me
you just did not love me

enough to believe me
enough not to leave me
enough not to look for
a reason to be unhappy with me
and make me regret ever wanting you

it wouldn't have made any difference
wouldn't have made any difference

as tears go by

it is the evening of the day
i sit and watch the children play
smiling faces i can see, but not for me
i sit and watch as tears go by

my riches can't buy everything
i want to hear the children sing
all i ever hear is the sound of rain falling on the ground
i sit and watch as tears go by

it is the evening of the day
i sit and watch the children play
doin' things i used to do, they think they are new
i sit and watch as tears go by
mm mm mm...

it's a beautiful day

this morning started out quite beautiful. sky was clear blue, with white patches of clouds. car was sparking clean (thanks to pak rahmat). and it was church day.

a different preacher for today. he is an italian sundanese (if i am not wrong)... but i do not know his name, since i arrived late. he described how christian life is a battleground, not a playground. and that we will never outgrow warfare (lust of flesh, lust of eyes and pride of life). we must learn how to fight it. so true, isn't it?

i have to confess that i am not living the christian life that i am supposed to be. but i hope and want to get better and closer to what god wants me to be.

not in the mood to reveal my feelings. but not to worry. i feel blessed, gratified, merry, gay or what-you-call-it.

ps. btw, how's everyone gonna celebrate their christmas & new year? i better start planning now...

love me accapella

by janice wei

wish you'd bring me candies
when i feel lonely
dream that you were my husband-to-be
in 365 all i ask is one name it after me

wish you'd write my name
on your favorite palm tree
look in my eyes love is all you can see
night and day i dream that things are the way
before will you love me more

where when and why did you make me cry
loneliness has become another part of life
tears running strong and angels have gone
don't know how to carry on

baby i need you now
i need your arms to hold me tight tonight
please turn the lights down low
and feel my body glow whisper and flow

baby i need you now
i need your strength to hold me down tonight
the world is out of sight
cause you are all that i've been searching for
the way you make me feel adored

comments...

is part of the reason why i created this blog. before i started blogging, i asked kev what good does a blog do? kev said blogging let you look back and read on the things that has been going on with your life during the past year. he also mentioned that people usually leave comments that will help us decide better in life. i agree with him that reflecting on life and people's comments do give us a lot of encouragement/solution/what-so-ever that you call it.

anyway, andy has been complaining that he could not comment on my blog. twice exactly. so i was thinking maybe it's time to switch from haloscan to the original blogger commenting. however, it would mean all my previous comments are gone from my blog. kind of sad. but sacrifices always have to be made if you want a change.

anyway, if you are one of the commentor. thanks for all your comments. i appreciate all the comments and encouragements. they're not totally gone... still down at haloscan. but not sure when i will have the knowledge and time to "carry them" over to my blog. maybe tomorrow. maybe never.

mood: lazy
