如烟
词曲:五月天 阿信/石头
------------------------------------------
有没有那么一种永远 永远不改变 
拥抱过的美丽都 再也不破碎
让险峻岁月不能在脸上撒野 
让生离和死别都遥远 有谁能听见
------------------------------------------
有没有那么一滴眼泪 能洗掉后悔 
化成大雨降落在 回不去的街
再给我一次机会 将故事改写 
还欠了他一生的 一句抱歉
-----------------------------------------
有没有那么一个世界 永远不天黑 
星星太阳万物都 听我的指挥
月亮不忙著圆缺 春天不走远 
树梢紧紧拥抱著树叶 有谁能听见
------------------------------------------
有没有那么一朵玫瑰 永远不凋谢 
永远骄傲和完美 永远不妥协
为何人生最后会像一张纸屑 
还不如一片花瓣曾经鲜艳
------------------------------------------
有没有那么一张书签 停止那一天 
最单纯的笑脸和 最美那一年
书包里面装满了蛋糕和汽水 
双眼只有无猜和无邪 让我们无法无天
---------------------------------------------
有没有那么一首诗篇 找不到句点 
青春永远定居在 我们的岁月
男孩和女孩都有吉他和舞鞋 
笑忘人间的苦痛 只有甜美
---------------------------------------------
有没有那么一个明天 重头活一遍 
让我再次感受 曾挥霍的昨天
无论生存或生活 我都不浪费 
不让故事这么的后悔

有谁能听见 我不要告别



听着五月天的作品七号--《后。青春期的诗》,几度忍不住落泪。阿信这次写词真的很用心,每一首都深深刺入心里,一遍又一遍的听,越听越有感觉。听到《如烟》,彻底震撼,彻底泪奔。终于明白为什么给这张专辑取了个如此文艺的名字,当时我还觉得矫情来着,阿信分明就是写了十二首诗啊。《如烟》,副歌部分歌词摘录如上,仅仅副歌就如此强悍,不知演唱会上阿信同学要如何应对@_@...
~extracted from a fellow taiwan mayday fan's blog.

"听到《如烟》,彻底震撼, 彻底泪奔" -Exactly how i felt, 震撼。

Yet another brilliant piece of lyrics from Ah Shin.

最华丽的青春悄悄流逝,后青春期的阿信用更加成熟的眼光回望走过的路,那种打动人心的纯真、遗憾和执着无法遏止地冲击着我的泪腺,一发不可收拾……

I had 3 cakes yesterday! Broke record man. Thank you all lovelies for remembering my b-day and all the well wishes! Too many smses and also many that i duno who is the sender. Only know that they're from my students. So pardon me for not replying you one by one!

Special thanks for Ah lan and gang + netball gals for the chocolate cake we had 'secretly' at the D&T block. (why so shy? hee.) Then for the delicious brownie cake specially made by Annie (Yes, Mrs Tan Annie) with fellow teachers in the staffroom. Had another cake with my 1 year old cute baby niece at night. We share the same birthday day!

Made me feel so blessed. Life's simple pleasures are made out of these. =)

No pics for now... Waiting for someone to send me! *get the hint?*

Will be back in sch on friday for teachers' day celebration! See u then!

After:


CHIO-NESS!! No more ugly thick blindings!! *Yippies*

After all the agony i went through , i managed to find this wonderful carpet company to help me cover up this unsightly looking thingy. Very pleased with their prompt service and helpfulness. Best of all, their prices were really competitive! They do curtains too and so we'll be getting them to do up our curtains as well. I would highly recommend them to anyone who needs carpet, curtain or wallpaper installation:

Okie, i know you are waiting for me to blog about my farewell last week. I know you are waiting for your test papers. And I know you are hoping to get invited.

Last week of school. Lots of tears and laughters. My students are a real cute bunch. Thank you for all the surprises and well wishes! I will miss ya. =) Three years of rubbish accumulated. Now do i know the importance of spring cleaning! Spent like 2 days to pack and its still not enough. No choice, so i left some stuffs around to be cleared after i came back from my bangkok trip.

YES.
I went bangkok 2 days after my last day of school. Lots of tom yum, grilled squids, grilled sausages, crepe (at Platinum Mall Food Court), and my favourite... Thai orange juice! Supposed to be a get-away trip cum shopping-for-home-decor trip. Great relaxing trip! Bought some cheap vases and decor pieces, and bath towels (hotel style) for 50 cents per piece!!! And i saw soooooo many designer replica pieces on sale... but its too big for us to bring back!! *sadness* Sorry but i was too busy shopping and eating, so, no photos!

Photo-viewing at D'sire yesterday. Am pleased with the photos! Especially the outdoor shots with the artistic trees. Sucessfully filtered through the 200++ photos to a pile of 30 photos without much difficulties. We had decided we just need to include the essence that will fill one album. One great looking album and thats enough. Let me show you some of my favorite shots. Pardon for bad resolution though!

Everyone is starting to ask us about how our wedding preparations are going. Then they'll continue on with all the nitty gritty stuffs that you need to do for your wedding. Makes you all stressed up coz they just throw everything at one go into your face. There are always priorities right? Not everything is so urgent at this point of time! >.<

Photoshoot was nice. =)

I remembered the one big reason which got me to sign up with D'sire was the 'wow' factor its interior decor gave me the first time i stepped into the place. And indeed, the photoshoot has proven to me that i didn't make a wrong choice! Every single corner of their 3 storey shophouse (including its little roof garden and balcony behind their pantry area) is a potential backdrop for photo-taking. Within the 4 hours of indoor shooting, i had a change of 4 indoor gowns, with decors and props in different themes as backdrops. I already felt that i had so much variety in my photos without even stepping outside for my outdoor photoshoot.

The only thing - it rained! In the end we didn't go to Changi. Despite that, it was a cooling day which might not be that bad either. =) I won't want to know how it would have felt like to be in that thick wedding gown and makeup under the hot sun! Anyway we still managed to take some decent shoots outdoor in the end. Can't wait to see them!!!!

Now, back to doing up my guestlist! Who wants to be invited? ;)

Been really busy with school recently... with all the big events and oral invigilations. As a result i've been squeezing out time to do up my invitation designs at night and missing out sleep time. -.- * i need more beauty sleep!* Both church and banquet invitation inserts designs are done! Am proud of my own creation. First baby step for my future online wedding invitation design business. You won't be able to imagine how i had typed out the chinese wordings on the chinese insert one by one! I had to dig out my dictionary to find the han yu pin yin of the words so that i can input them into my document! *My dear students out there, its not coz my chinese is too poor ok. Its coz they use really formal words that normal people don't use in daily life!*

Went down to the card company to confirm my orders for the cards as well. Chose a simple blank design so that i can customise it to the way i want it to be. I don't want any typical 喜喜 or hot stamped golden wordings on my cards.


Awaiting for transformation!


Card when opened. *insert design mosiac-ed to keep it as a surprise for u!*

Photoshoot in 3 days time! I combed the whole of far east plaza today looking for shoes and accessories to match my gowns for the shoot. Dead tired now. *not a complain though. I was enjoying my shopping with all the sales going on!* Am happy! Coz i think i found the perfect pair of shoes. And far east is really the place to go for cheap and nice accessories. Found my earrings at $4.90 per pair! And they're nice enough to go with gowns ok.

We've sort of decided to go changi for our outdoor PS. Changi boardwalk -> lallang field -> Changi beach -> Changi Chapel -> Terminal 3. Hoping to get permission to take photos at SAF changi yacht club too. Chance upon these really gorgeous photos online. Can you believe that this is actually Singapore???
