was listening to the radio while reading some research paper on thursday. then suddenly this song came on radio and it caught my attention..

If I die young, bury me in satin
Lay me down on a, bed of roses
Sink me in the river, at dawn
Send me away with the words of a love song

this week's song recommendation is 'If I Die Young' by the band perry.

cos recently my grandma health not as good. so she moved in tgt with my family. and one night, she was in pain and couldnt get up..so jie and i helped her get up. when i was holding her arm, i could feel that my fingers sinking into her wrinkly skin..nv knew how soft her flesh has become. and she told us she felt terrible...and her whole body was aching.. we couldnt really do anything to ease the pain.

i was telling my jie after that..that in future i wouldnt want to live till so old. live till so old and suffer so much. this song came along and i tried to listen carefully to what it is trying to say...sounds like some suicidal song right..

i searched online for the lyrics and the story behind it.

"We really have gotten to live and love at our young ages. 'If I Die Young,' for us, is about if it all ends at this moment, look at what we've gotten to do. Whatever time we're given will be absolutely enough as long as we make the most of it."

it's about making the most out of what we have. hope i can achieve that...and be brave when in face of the different challenges in life....

Gather up your tears, keep 'em in your pocket
Save them for a time when you're really gonna need them, oh


back to top?

have been quite busy for the past few days..or weeks...never really had enough rest. for a pig like me, it's out of the norm. finally got to sleep till 12 noon today! and later going for kite flying! lol. ever since i came back, life in spore now has been very different from the life i had in spore back then. think gip has really changed my perspective of life in many ways. but i realised i was carrying so many worries in my mind for the past few days.. should stop worrying and start doing right. if i cant get myself right on track i guess i'll be sinking in self mini depression..which is so not healthy! feels as if i have tremendous inertia to move..and the inertia increases as start of school term approaches. i guess life is really like a roller coaster ba...so scared and worried before the ride starts..but nxt thing you know..u're at full speed!!!

i had my first roller coaster right at Universal studios this tuesday! went with chinhwa and was so freaked out when i was on the red roller coaster. think the blue one was scarier. unlike most girls, i didnt really scream my lungs out..but i had tears flowing out! lol... that's my reaction to drops bahs.. same reaction applies for bungee jump. chinhwa thinks i m weird haha.

wanna thank peiru and norman for the awesome card! peiru really is damn creative!!! and wanna thank chinhwa for the wonderful bdae celebration...lol..the little book and the cooking~ :) back to top?
