These Words
Natasha Bedingfield

Threw some chords together
The combination D-E-F
Is who I am, is what I do
No one's gonna let it down for you
Try to focus my attention
But I feel so A-D-D
I need some help, some inspiration
(But it's not coming easily)
Whoah oh...

Trying to find the magic
Trying to write a classic
Don't you know, don't you know, don't you know?
Waste-bin full of paper
Clever rhymes, see you later

These words are my own
From my heart flown
I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you
There's no other way
To better say
I love you, I love you...

Written by Ricelli and Keys
Resided in over a heartbeat
I'm having trouble saying what I mean
With dead poets and drum machines
I know I had some studio time, but

But I couldn't find a killer hook
Now you're gonna raise the bar right up
Nothing I write is ever good enough

These words are my own
From my heart flown
I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you
There's no other way
To better say
I love you, I love you...

I;m getting off my stage
The curtains pull away
No hyper bowl to hide behind
I'm naked, so exposed
Whoah.. oh.. oh.. oh.. Whoah.. oh..

Trying to find the magic
Trying to write a classic
Waste-bin full of paper
Clever rhymes, see you later

These words are my own
From my heart flown
I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you
There's no other way
To better say
I love you...
I love you, is that okay?

Weihui told me.

Yesterday she met Weiyi at the MRT. And before that she was on the escalator and for some reasons she just lost balance and fell back. Fortunately this macho-in-his-twenties man grabbed her and helped her back (and told her to 'take care' or something). Imagine if that macho man was not there, oh my god. Weihui! Your head, you face how!?

Weihui told me that when she fell, suddenly, all the happy moments she had just flashed back 'cause at one point in time she thought she was really gonna die. The moments when she smiled; with her friends, her family. Including me! But that's not the point anyway. So it's really true when you're about to die, you just think of all the happy times you've had.

Um, then after she recovered from shock, she thought of how close she was to death, and started weeping like mad. It's really scary and saddening. Imagine if that macho man was not there, oh my god, Weihui would've been on today's newspapers or something. Why am I so freaked out by this thing. Weihui and everyone else, please please be careful with yourself.

Please don't bring home too many textbooks home even though the EOYs are coming 'cause your bag would be damn heavy and pull you back when you're on the escalator and usually after school there are no people at the MRT station to push you back up.

I told Si Min and we came up with this:
Tomorrow is My Love Day (22/09/06),
please say 'I love you' to everyone you cherish.
And mean it <3
