We belong together

I was listening to this song yesterday night before i fell asleep....No matter how many times I listen to this song, I never seem to get bored of it..... It's a beautiful song that carries a deep meaning to it.....and it brings back memories........

We belong together ( performed by Mariah Carey)

(Ooh, ooh, sweet love, yeah)

I didn't mean it when I said I didn't love you so
I should've held on tight, I never should've let you go
I didn't know nothing, I was stupid, I was foolish
I was lying to myself
I could not fathom I would ever be without your love
Never imagined I'd be sitting here beside myself
'Cause I didn't know you, 'cause I didn't know me
But I thought I knew everything
I never felt

The feeling that I'm feeling now that I don't hear your voice
Or have your touch and kiss your lips 'cause I don't have a choice
Oh, what I wouldn't give to have you lying by my side
Right here, 'cause baby
(We belong together)

When you left I lost a part of me (Together)
It's still so hard to believe
(Come back, come back)
Come back baby, please
(Come back, come back)
'Cause we belong together

Who else am I gon' lean on when times get rough (Ooooooh yeah)
Who's gonna talk to me on the phone till the sun comes up (Oooooh yeah)
Who's gonna take your place, there ain't nobody better (Oooooooh yeah)
Oh, baby baby, we belong together

I can't sleep at night when you are on my mind
Bobby Womack's on the radio saying to me:
"If you think you're lonely now"
Wait a minute this is too deep (too deep)
I gotta change the station so I turn the dial
Trying to catch a break and then I hear Babyface
I only think of you and it's breaking my heart
I'm trying to keep it together but I'm falling apart

I'm feeling all out of my element
I'm throwing things, crying
Trying to figure out where the hell I went wrong
The pain inflicted in this song ain't even half of what I'm feeling inside
I need you, need you back in my life, baby
(We belong together)

When you left I lost a part of me (Together)
It's still so hard to believe
(Come back, come back)
Come back baby, please
(Come back, come back)
'Cause we belong together

Who else am I gon' lean on when times get rough (Ooooooh yeah)
Who's gonna talk to me on the phone till the sun comes up (Oooooh yeah)
Who's gonna take your place, there ain't nobody better (Oooooooh yeah)
Oh, baby baby, we belong together baby! (We belong together)

When you left I lost a part of me (Together)
(Oooooooh yeah)
It's still so hard to believe
(Come back, come back)
Come back baby, please (Oooooooh yeah)
(Come back, come back)
'Cause we belong together

Who else am I gon' lean on when times get rough (Ooooooh yeah)
Who's gonna talk to me till the sun comes up (Ooooooh yeah)
Who's gonna take your place, there ain't nobody better (Oooooooh yeah)
Oh, baby baby, we belong together!

Ooooooh yeah
Ooooooh yeah
Ooooooh yeah
We belong together

When darkness fell

When darkness fell,
And the moon rose high up to the heaven above,
The touch of the cool breeze,
caressed her lovely skin,
tugged at her glorious crown.

Tears of a maiden,
with heart as cold as ice,
Hands entwined,
Embraced the pain,
Envied the rain,
Silently awaiting the glow of the king.

Personal Experience

Have you ever fall into a drain in front of a hundred people before? Well, maybe that figure is a little of an exaggeration. There were probably fifty people around instead of a hundred. Whatever it is, allow me to enlighten you on what happened on that night. It was a quiet night. I was alone in my room, staring blankly at the laptop in front of me whilst slowly sipping the hot drink I made earlier. I was savoring every delicious bit of the hot drink when all of a sudden, the light went out. I was in complete darkness and the blaring sound of the siren was echoing throughout the entire building. My heart began pounding as wild thoughts raced through my mind. What if the building’s on fire? What if there’s a madman on the loose in this building tearing from room to room terrorizing his victims? Deciding not to let my thoughts stray any further, I sprang out if the room to check on the situation. I noticed the occupants were reluctantly heading out of the building. Still puzzled, I blindly followed the crowd and I was led to the area in front of the ‘Kompaun Ubat’. Then the realization hit me. It must be a fire drill practice. Students from the male and female Nurani dormitories were gathered there. I scanned the area around me and found the sight amusing. It looks like a school assembly with the exception that, it’s close to midnight and nobody’s dressed in the proper attire. Some are in their fancy pajamas and some are just clad in an oversized T-shirt and shorts. Most of the students were downright annoyed with the unexpected fire drill practice as it was so held so late. I could hear mutters of complaints coming out from their mouths. Well, I can’t really blame them for that, I guess. Almost half an hour later, the officer in charge started to do head counts to make sure everyone was gathered there. He then scolded us for taking such a long time to gather at the area in front of the ‘Kompaun Ubat’. With a stern voice, he explained to us the importance of a fire drill and he sincerely hoped we would regard this matter in a more serious manner. The students listened meekly and some nodded their heads. After another few minutes, finally the fire drill was over. I grabbed hold of my roommate’s hand and motioned to her to make a move back to our room. We walked along in silence for several minutes, each caught up with our own thoughts. Then , without realizing the existence of a drain in front of me, I took a step ahead of my roommate and plunged into a wet, grassy drain. I didn’t even have the time to shout because it happened too fast. Fortunately, my roommate didn’t share the same fate as me. She instinctively halted when she saw what had happened and called out to me asking if I’m hurt or anything. I assured her I was fine. I was so embarrassed with what happened and I didn’t want to make a big deal out of it. Students who witnessed this incident crowded by the side of the drain, asking me if I’m hurt or if I needed any help at all. I was thankful for their concern but at the same time I was feeling completely embarrassed with myself. All I could think of at that moment was to get myself out of the drain. Without much further thoughts, I gripped the upper corners of the drain, one hand on each side, and heaved myself out of the drain. Thankfully, I managed to get out of the drain relying on my own effort. Once I’m out of the drain, I headed back to my room quickly, hoping nobody would know that it was me who fell into the drain. But I think quite a handful of people knew that I was the one who fell into the drain. Oh well, that was a lesson learnt. Since then, I am much more alert and careful when I’m walking. It was a miracle I didn’t suffer any serious injury from the fall. I just had some abrasions on the forearm of my right hand, which scars of the injury still visible up to now.

Mummy




"Mummy". That's how I call my mother. For some, the word "mummy" may sound rather childish, so instead of calling their mothers, "mummy", they use "mum" or "mother". However, to me, "mummy" sounds fine just the way it is. I love my mummy. There, I boldly utter those words , with no hesitation at all. I don't see why some people find it so hard to utter that three simple yet magical words. My mummy is everything to me. She is my light when my world is enveloped by total darkness. She is my standing pillar even when the world around me collapses. Her love and warmth could warm up the whole house even if there's a heavy snowstorm threatening to rip the whole house apart. Although she often gives me a piece of her mind , I know that deep down , those harsh words were meant to knock some sense into me.
My mother is a very hardworking lady. She never miss her household chores routine unless she's not feeling well. Oh, and when she cleans the house, she's an overpowered vacuum cleaner that sucks everything in like a blackhole, leaving not even a single speck of dust around. Mummy is so dedicated in taking care of her home and her family. She is my inspiration, my love, my idol. I love my mummy and she will always be the queen of my heart, now and forever...

My life - An unforgettable experience

“ Pose for a picture , wushu team members !” , shouted Ying Seong, the president of wushu club of USMKK, with a big jolly smile plastered on his face. And then, there was a blinding flash of light, followed by a soft click. That picture was taken right after the Chinese New Year night event. Everyone was in a state of euphoria as the wushu performance is finally over. I could still remember how relieved I was feeling at that moment. I was smiling from ear to ear and I was filled with sheer happiness. At that very moment, it felt like a pair of 10 kg dumb bells had been lifted from my shoulders. It felt so good back then. I could still reminisce how wushu training was like for me. As I was not an active person, wushu training was really tough for me. I had to undergo stamina training such as frog jump, sprinting, jogging, ‘duck walk’ and more. Moreover, the warm up session during wushu training was like a torture session to me. I had to spread my legs open wide apart and slowly bend forward until my chest touches the floor. That flexibility exercise was so painful that it immediately brought tears to my eyes. That sheer agony was really unforgettable. Besides , practicing wushu and memorizing the steps were not an easy task too. Thus , in my opinion, to be able to withstand wushu training sessions and not giving up till the very end is considered a great achievement. I managed to perform wushu with my other wushu team members during Chinese New Year night event and I must say it was really an unforgettable experience.
