Though We Are Different
Though We Are Different from Each Other,
All That Matters to Me
Is That We Love Each Other
I often wonder what
made us fall in love
with each other
We are so different
from each other
Our strengths
and weaknesses
are so different
Our ways
of approaching things
are so different
Our personalities
are so different
Yet our love
continues to grow and grow
Perhaps the differences
we have add to the
excitement of our relationship
and I know that both of us
as a team are stronger
than either of us alone
We are basically different from
each other
but we have so many
feelings and emotions in common
And it really doesn't matter
why we fell in love
All that matters to me
is that we continue
to respect and love
each other

disappointed...

i want and i need to talk... face to face is best...
its the only way to make it better...

i need a status...

to those who still believe even though they've been betrayed;
to those who still need love even though they've been hurt before."

Can You Ever Love Me for Me?

by: Miriam Campo

Can you ever love me for me?

For the me that I am true and true

Can you love me with my imperfections?

Can you see me as I am and not as what you want me to be?

Can you ever love me for me?

For the me that makes mistakes and speaks without thinking

Can you love me even when I am unreasonable?

Can you see me as I am and not for the Angel you seek?

Can you ever love me for me?

For the me that cries when a stranger child is hurt

Can you love me when I am sad without me having a reason to be?

Can you see me as I am not as what I once was?

Can you ever love me for me?

Distance Never Separates

Distance never separates
Two hearts that really care;

For memory spans the miles
And in seconds we are there.

We hear the voice, we see the smile,
And deep inside we know

That friends remain a part of us
Wherever we may go.

So we can visit anytime,
No matter when or where...

For distance never separates
Two hearts that really care.

i lost my voice!! help!!!


kbox with my tomodachi-s Jocelyn and Yile... quality: not bad. would have enjoyed it more if only i hadn't been down with bad throat, if the mic wasnt faulty, if they had chicken rice to offer instead of just nasi brani OR Laska. after one try of nasi brani,.. of cos i chose Laska.. had no choice. the person told me it's not soo hot.. so yea,.. try it! well, it had to be a bit spicy.. if not then why call it laska?? duh! =x okay, back to topic... the chinese tea [=( ] was sooo bitter, so yile got her friend working ere bring us some sugar. i added 2 packets.. hoho. maybe it wasn't tt bitter but my sense of taste was damaged remember?


met up with sam n des back at whitesands... me and sam bought a tin of Famous Amos cookies from him.. help him ma.. wad are friends for?

sam,.. thanks for the gifts! arigatoo gozaimasu...


at home, i thought my voice was ok and that my throat could take it since i drank bitter chinese tea and lots of water... so, when my mum offered me curry puffs. i did not hesitate. argh! ate the wrong one, ate sardine puff which was extra hot... eee, i prefer potato lo. but had to finish it... in the end, the potato curry puff oso in my tummy... OH NO... sense sth bad. throat pathway seems clear...


upon reaching work, my voice changed while conversing with Jason. hmm,.. sexy voice. lol! drank lots of plain water, honey and some ginger thingy drink. AH. no help...

went for a haircut in the morning after brunch. having kfc home delivery later on.
actually i came back from camp yest. had a nice sleep. slept till nine plus in the morn and then took a solid 3 hrs nap. think i had compensated for e lack of sleep already.


abt the whole camp?? bored, tired and enjoyable.


BORED:
diffcult time to pass after admin work and serving meals.

TIRED:
managed only 2 to 4 hrs of sleep.

ENJOYABLE:
opened many mini concerts of my own,
learned to play silent heart attack (managed to stay at level 0!! yay... ), polar bear game, n foosball (getting better at it =))
get to do n create lots of cheers.


took some pics but can only upload them after i get em from yy and jingyi.


now i only hope L4 stays together. it's only some minor disputes which accumulated up tt was too much for one to take. ganbatte kudasai!!!

Learn to respond to someone crying by just listening. passing a person a tissue may be just
another way to shut them down, to take them out of their experience of sadness and grief. just listen. When they have cried all they need to cry, they find you there with them.

<3<3
the most basic and powerful way to connect to another person is to listen.
Just listen.
Perhaps the most important thing we ever give each other is our attention.
And especially if it's given from the heart.
When people are talking, there's no need to do anything but receive them.
Just take them in.
Listen to what they're saying.
Care about it.
Most times caring about it is even more important than understanding it.
Most of us don't value ourselves or our love enough to know this.
believe in the power of simple saying, "I'm so sorry," when someone is in pain.
And meaning it.
