empat puluh tiga darjah celcius




43 degrees!!!!



Roasted, BBQ-ed, burnt, charcoal black ..whatever u call it...
The heatwave has been hitting Melbourne, for 3 consecutive days now.
the temperature has broke Melbourne's record as it hasn't hit 43 for a very long time...
and also, known as the hottest summer for Melbourne
making days seemed like u have open a heating oven when u open your front door to go outdoors...
and nights..hard to sleep.. Sigghhh!!!
i guess... it's just what makes melbourne unique..
can be freakishly hot n cold or have 4 seasons in a day!


well, i'm not complaining...
*fingers crossed*

at least i went for a free train ride to the city today...
many train routes were disrupted due to the heat and Connex gave free train ride the whole of today
yes..u've heard me right..the whole of today, to anywhere, for all means of public transport including V-Line
so i thought..

i might as well go down to the city for a bit...
walk around, window-shopping (as if!) or just to take a leisure stroll alone would be good
and i'm glad i did :)




have u ever notice how perfect the clear blue sky is ?





no marshmallow clouds or a colourful rainbow but still, i'm
thankful for God's beautiful creation







PS: for those of u in melb now, do take good k and drink lotsa water, aite :)

If I were a boy

even just for a day,
I'd roll out of bed in the morning
and throw on what I wanted and go
drink beer with the guys
and chase after girls,
I'd get with who I wanted
and I’ll never get confronted for it
cause they'd stick up for me



If I were a boy
I think I could understand
how it feels to love a girl,
I swear I'd be a better man
I'd listen to her
'cause I know how it hurts
when you lose the one you wanted
'cause he's taking you for granted
and everything you had got destroyed



If I were a boy
I would turn off my phone
tell everyone it's broken
so they think
that I was sleeping alone
I’d put myself first
and make the rules as I go
'cause I know that she’ll be faithful,
waiting for me to come home
(to come home)


If I were a boy
I think I could understand
how it feels to love a girl
I swear I’d be a better man
I’d listen to her
'cause I know how it hurts
when you lose the one you wanted
cause he’s taken you for granted
and everything you had got destroyed!



It's a little too late for you to come back
Say it's just a mistake,
think I'd forgive you like that?!
If you thought I would wait for you, you thought wrong



But you're just a boy,
you don't understand
how it feels to love a girl
someday you'll wish you were a better man...
You don't listen to her,
you don't care how it hurts
until you lose the one you wanted
'cause you taken her for granted
and everything you had got destroyed

but you're just a boy...






enjoy the video !!!

i felt like as though it is friday today

the last of weekdays
the beginning of weekends

if so, the point is...????

all's clear and very well known beforehand

i.hate.this.part

We're driving slow through the snow on 5th Avenue
And right now radio's all that we can hear
Now we ain't talk since we left, it's so over due
It's cold outside but between us it's worse in here

The world slows down
But my heart beats fast right now
I know this is the part
Where the end starts

I can't take it any longer
Thought that we were stronger
All we do is linger
Slipping through our fingers
I don't wanna try now
All that's left's goodbye to
Find a way that I can tell you
I hate this part right here
I hate this part right here
I just can't take your tears
I hate this part right here

Everyday, 7 takes of the same old scene
Seems we're bound by the laws of the same routine
Gotta talk to you now 'fore we go to sleep
But will we sleep once I tell you what's hurting me

The world slows down
But my heart beats fast right now
I know this is the part
Where the end starts

I can't take it any longer
Thought that we were stronger
All we do is linger
Slipping through our fingers
I don't wanna try now
All that's left's goodbye to
Find a way that I can tell you
I hate this part right here
I hate this part right here
I just can't take your tears
I hate this part right here

I know you'll ask me to hold on
And carry on like nothing's wrong
But there is no more time for lies
'Cause I see sunset in your eyes

I can't take it any longer
Thought that we were stronger
All we do is linger
Slipping through our fingers
I don't wanna try now
All that's left's goodbye to
Find a way that I can tell you

That I gotta do it,
I gotta do it,
I gotta do it
I hate this part
I gotta do it,
I gotta do it,
I gotta do it

I hate this part right here
I hate this part right here
I just can't take these tears
I hate this part right here

cinema, here i come!!!




what i did during the holidays....
lalala~





Australia is a real good movie. although it's 3 hours long, i did not find it boring at all as some claimed it was. a mixture of Australian history and love story.





Bedtime stories is not a bad one. Funny yet has good motivation.





The Curious Case of Benjamin Button is a good one too. About 3 hours but i find it very meaningful and relates a lot to life, especially decisions and hardcore truths.






Twilight!! well, i guess u all know, is a love story...but for more details and to be really able to feel...err, the LOVE, kindly read the book :P or else..for lazy ppl, the movie would do u good.




as always
