I just freaking love this song.
I find it to be freaking meaningful for it does reflects on my feelings.


McFly - Too Close For Comfort



I never meant the things I said to make you cry
Can I say I'm sorry
It's hard to forget
And yes
I regret all these mistakes

I don't know why you're leaving me
But I know you must have your reasons
There's tears in your eyes
I watch as you cry but it's getting late

Was I invading in on your secrets
Was I too close for comfort
You're pushing me out when I wanted in
What was I just about to discover
When I got too close for comfort
Driving you home
Guess I'll never know

Remember when we scratched our names into the sand
And told me you loved me
Now that I find that you've changed your mind I'm lost for words

And everything I feel for you
I wrote down on one piece of paper
The one in your hand
You won't understand how much it hurts to let you go

Was I invading in on your secrets
Was I too close for comfort
You're pushing me out when I wanted in
What was I just about to discover
I got too close for comfort
Driving you home
Guess I'll never know
Ooh
Yeah

All this time you've been telling me lies
Hidden in bags that are under your eyes
And when I asked you I knew I was right
But if you turn your back on me now when I need you most
But you chose to let me down
Down
Down
Won't you think about what you're about to do to me and back down

Was I invading in on your secrets
Was I too close for comfort
You're pushing me out when I wanted in
What was I just about to discover
I got too close for comfort

You're pushing me out when I wanted in
Yeah
Yeah
Yeah
What was I just about to discover
And I got too close for comfort
Driving you home
Guess I'll never know

11th February

The cleaner did not turn up for work today and guess what Michelle and I did?
We volunteered to clean the men's washroom.
Holy cow.
I've never even clean any toilets before let alone the toilets in my house.
Since Lisa had to clean the both the men's and women's washroom, we offered to help.

And so, we set out to clean the washroom.
First, we swept the floor then we vacuumed the floor.
Yup, we vacuumed the floor instead of washing it.
Easier that way. XD
After vacuuming the floor, we washed the bathing rooms.
Just had to splash some water on the walls and wipe them dry.
Not only that, we had to mop the floor dry too.
Tedious, isn't it?

After we were done with the showers, we cleaned the toilets.
Michelle was complaining non-stop about one of the cubicle as it was bloody dirty.
According to her, there were still traces of shit.
Eeeww.
After I had finished cleaning one of the toilets, I went to keep the Harpic and one of our customers, Mr Lim came in.
I was surprised to see him as I did not expect customers at that time.
He said 'hello' to me and I muttered a quick hello before darting into the toilet I just cleaned.
I pretended to be wiping the cubicles with the door closed.
And, when the coast was clear, I quickly went out only to find another customer, Mr Yeoh clad only in his underwear.
I was like holy fcuk and I hid in the bathing room Michelle was in.
Apparently she saw something that she wasn't supposed to see like me too. XD

It was a lucky thing that Mr Yeoh didn't see me coming out from the toilet as he would scream his head off.
He's gay you see?
So we hid in the toilet until we were really sure that the coast was clear.

So that's about it for my toilet experience.
Definitely an unforgettable one. Lmao.

Two days after that, we had to clean the women's washroom since the cleaner was on leave.
Ish, from operation assistants to cleaners la.

Working in a spa and especially at the towel counter has got it's advantages sometimes.
I ain't gonna dwell on why I said it's an advantage. *evil grin*


Front desk is boring.

Notice the date? The bread ain't mouldy and it will never be.


It don't stink or anything but it dried up. Ahh the wonders of


Till then,

I've been busy lately, working.
Hence, the almost dead blog of mine once again.
I'm currently working at a spa called Ecoparadise.
Not like your ordinary spa though.
The pay is good, I tell you. XD Wheee! Shopping frenzy after payday. LOL
And the job is quite simple and definitely more relaxing.
Not only that, working in a place like this is a great way to improve one's PR skills.
You'll get to meet people from all walks of life.
Some are friendly, some are arrogant like fcuk and some are just great!! XD

And thanks to working life, my inability to sleep is a thing of the past.
YAY!
The downside of it is that I can't work on my stories.
Yes, mark the -ies.
Nadia told me not to stick to writing one particular story at one given time as you'll get sick of writing it eventually.
Perhaps, the one reason why writers have writer's block is because of this? Hmm

My fascination with vampires has not quite died down.
No, it's not because of Twilight.
Why I even bother writing this is because the next book on my reading list is Darren Shan's Cirque Du Freak.
I hope I got that right.
Wouldn't wanna offend any Darren Shan fans. Lol
The story is mainly about a young boy called Darren Shan who met a vampire during a freak show.
Darren got pretty intrigued with the vampire and his way of life; and he decided to become one of them.
Basically, the books in this series tells of his journey to become a vampire.
Now, that I wanna read.
On the plus side, there's little romance to be found in this series.

Ah, yes. Chinese New Year was as boring and uneventful as the previous years.
My red packet did get fatter this year though, surprisingly, what with the economic slowdown and all.
My cousin and I played a lot of Chor Tai Di coz she wanted me to hone my skills so I could be a bigger challenge to her.
She claims I'm much of a noob in this game. Ish
And she manicured my nail for me! AHHH!!




It's not clear as I couldn't get the camera to focus clearly. My hands were shaking. XD


Well, let me end this post with a poem I've wrote during those sleepless nights.
Ahh the irony of the sleepless nights blues.
It's my first poem in such a long time though so be warned that it won't be good.
It's more like a passage than a poem to me though.
Well enjoy reading it or suffer reading it. XD

There you stand,
In all your glory; lo and behold,
So painstakingly beautiful; the beauty I yearned to touch,
Steps I had taken; none too far none too near,
Away from the untarnished jewel of my eye; I longed,
Far too long had my frail being besotted by the brilliance you radiate,
Yet you are like heroine; I am addicted beyond hope,
If I had to risk a friendship to make these damned feelings gone; I will,
For I'm done building walls after walls and masquerading,
The pain of losing you still runs clear in my veins like venom,
The venom that will be the death of me someday,
Forgive me for my whines about my disability to move on; it annoys me to the very core so to speak,
I wish for a cure for these sleepless nights; for I am at my most vulnerable,
The memories plays on like a bad movie; black and white, muted,
When the world sleeps the night away; my mind takes a peek at your image like a Peeping Tom on the run,
And it is during this time am I deranged enough to put pointless and senseless words to pen and paper,
Putting the most discussed topic in ink; You,
And so darling watch me dance; with steps none too far none too near,
Pray, bear with my dance annoying as it may be,
'Till my disability flows to yesterdays that won't return; till my whines drown in the sounds of the past,
Until then my darling, let this drug-induced fool dance.


I certainly hope you understand what I wrote.
A lot of hidden meanings in this poem.
And bloody stupid this poem is.
Oh well...


My favourite song at the moment.

DSDS - Cry On My Shoulder

If the hero, never comes to you
If you need someone, you're feeling blue
If you wait for love, and you're alone
If you call your friends, nobody's home
You can rum away, but you can't hide
Through a storm and through a lonely night
Then I'll show you there's a destiny
The best things in life, they are free

But if you wanna cry: cry on my shoulder
If you need someone, who cares for you
If you're feeling sad, your heart gets colder
Yes I show you what real love can do

If your sky is grey oh let me know
There's a place in heaven, where we'll go
If heaven is, a million years away
Oh just call me and I'll make your day
When the nights are getting cold and blue
When the days are getting hard for you
I will always stay by your side
I promise you, I'll never hide

But if you wanna cry: cry on my shoulder
If you need someone, who cares for you
If you're feeling sad, your heart gets colder
Yes I show you what real love can do

But if you wanna cry: cry on my shoulder
If you need someone, who cares for you
If you're feeling sad, your heart gets colder
Yes I show you what real love can do



Till then.
