Thank you for giving me all that i can ever ask for in love and more.
Hang in there baby.
No night is too dark when we have each other.
- Michael Buble- Everything
You're a falling star,
you're the get away car.
You're the line in the sand
when I go too far.
You're the swimming pool,
on an August day.
And You're the perfect thing to see.
And you play your card,
but it's kinda cute.
Ah, When you smile at me you
know exactly what you do.
Baby don't pretend,
that you don't know it's true.
Cause you can see it
when I look at you.
And in this crazy life,
and through these crazy times
It's you, it's you, you make me sing.
You're every line,
you're every word, you're everything
.

You're a carousel, you're a wishing well,
And you light me up, when you ring my bell.
You're a mystery, you're from outer space,
You're every minute of my everyday.

And I can't believe, uh that I'm your man(gal),
And I get to kiss you baby just because I can.
Whatever comes our way, ah we'll see it through,
And you know that's what our love can do.

Yeeks my fingers look like that of an 80-year old!!!
I swear by Sally Hansen nail colours and thank god someone invented instant-dry top coats! Goes from wet to set in 5mins!! Muahahaha~!

Flight got delayed so i'm at home painting my nails on this rainy afternoon. Hopefully the nail colours will last me 3 working days. Most girls love painting their nails to make it pretty. I'll like it too if i didnt have to do it for my job. It just sucks when u have to do something,not because u like it, but because u HAVE to do it. Takes the fun right out of things.The company doesnt allow nail art stickers as well so i havent been using my nice nail flowers and swirls for more than half a year.
Gloomy rainy day. Makes me moodier listening to Clubbed to Death(kurayamino) on my itunes.
Wish i didnt have to go work later. Have to take cab back somemore due to the delay! What a waste of hard-earned money! I'll probably reach home around 12.45am and i've got to be at the airport at 12.15pm tommorrow afternoon again. Sighz.

Was channel surfing last week when i came upon this very interesting program hosted by Belinda Lee on Channel U. Its called "Find me a Singaporean!" and each week Belinda goes to the most remote and obscure parts of the earth to see how Singaporeans there are doing. Talk about globalisation huh! I'm extremely envious of her coz she gets to go to all these exotic places like Bhutan, Male and Coimbatore!
Last week's program was about a singaporean woman, who bears an uncanny resemblance to bjork, working as the director of a modern arts museum in Iceland, and i was irresistably drawn to the harsh beauty of the place.
Lush green pastures amidst impressive cliffs of volcanic mountains and rocky beaches reminds me of neighbouring Greenland which shares its Viking history. The mystic beauty of the sweeping landscape, meandering fjords and rolling fields holds so much allure, its not hard to imagine how the archaic vikings made Iceland and Greenland their home.
Gosh~its definitely gonna be on the list of places i want visit before i die.

A little white house nestled within the many volcanic craters on Iceland.

Landmannalaugar, a region near the volcano Hakla in the inner highland area of Iceland. Much of the highland areas in Iceland are cold and uninhabitable.

Dettifost waterfall in northern Iceland.

One of the many rivers which flows from the hostile highlands, and are formed by millions of years of erosion through volcanic rocks.

With views like that, I'll trade in everything to be a little farmer girl there, than a glamorous flight attendant here=(

My all-time fav quotes:

"It seems to me that love is everywhere. Often it's not particularly dignified or newsworthy, but it's always there - fathers and sons, mothers and daughters, husbands and wives, boyfriends, girlfriends, old friends. When the planes hit the Twin Towers, as far as I know none of the phone calls from the people on board were messages of hate or revenge - they were all messages of love. If you look for it, I've got a sneaky feeling you'll find that love actually is all around."

"With any luck, by next year - I'll be going out with one of these girls. [shows pictures of beautiful supermodels]
But for now, let me say -
Without hope or agenda -
Just because it's Christmas -
And at Christmas you tell the truth -
To me, you are perfect -
And my wasted heart will love you -
Until you look like this [picture of a mummy]
Merry Christmas. "
- Love Actually
Love actually is one of my all-time fav movie. Its got sooo much love in it that everytime i watch it, i felt like i'm falling in love all over again. Its the ultimate xmas/holiday movie/romcom that i'll nv ever ever get tired of...esp when it stars the absolutely charming COLIN FIRTH *swoon*

"If, however, your feelings have changed, I will have to tell you: you have bewitched me, body and soul, and I love... I love... I love you. And I never wish to be parted from you from this day on."
-Pride & Prejudice

Started to read Pride and Prejudice by Jane Austen recently. Must admit i first got interested in it because of colin firth. Been dying to get a copy of the BBC production with colin firth, to no avail. Guess i just have to stick to watching little snippets of it on Youtube.=( You have no idea how moved i was when colin firth's character 'Mr Darcy' said the above in the miniseries. Totally totally made me believe in forever love.

"Aye, fight and you may die. Run, and you'll live. At least a while. And dying in your beds, many years from now, would you be willing to trade all the days from this day to that... for one chance... just one chance... to come back here and tell our enemies that they may take out lives, but they will never take our freedom!"
- Braveheart

From Jerry Maguire-
"Show me the money!"

Straight to the point...heehee

"You complete me."
Something that I've always wanted to say to C.

"You had me at hello."
Love at first sight, or should i say, love at first word =)

"I fell in love."
"Oh, as if you had no choice? There's a moment, there's always a moment, 'I can do this, I can give in to this, or I can resist it', and I don't know when your moment was, but I bet you there was one. "
-Closer

I super 'feel' this quote the moment i heard it in the movie. It describes so accurately the train of thoughts a person goes through in his mind before deciding whether to take a chance and cheat on his/her partner. Makes me wonder if the scriptwriter was infidel to his/her partner and realised what a mistake he/she made.

I enjoy movies alot.

I think they are one of the little simple wonders in life. They suspend ur beliefs,bring u insights and knowledge, expose ugly truths and sometimes bring little nuggets of wisdom and hope to ur mundane life.

Oh how i wish to be whisked away to a place of love and happiness right now, away from the harsh realities of life and work.
I hate my current work but there is bond included in the contract and i really dont wish to break the bond. Firstly, i dont like leaving things done halfway, and secondly, i really dont want to pay the company.

Been thinking of going away for a break very soon. Norway with its spectacular fjords and blue lagoon in Iceland seemed super other-worldly and extremely appealing. It will be another 2 months at least till i can go on leave, and that is if i send in my leave application tommorrow.

Oh well.
Guess i'll just escape into the fictional world of Jane Austen's old England and stay there for a little while till i have to go to work tommorrow evening.
