Making It Mine!

I'm loving this song...way better than I'm Yours. Another one of my happy songs collection. =) Just makes me feel so carefree.......



Wake up everyone
How can you sleep at a time like this
Unless the real dreamer is you

Listen to your voice
The one that tells you
To taste past the tip of your toungue

Leap in, the net will appear

I don't wana wake before

The dream is over

I'm gona make it mine

Yes I, I know it

I'm gona make it mine

Yes I'll make it all mine

I keep my life on a heavy rotation

Requesting that it's lifting you up, up, up and away

And over to a table at the Gratitude Cafe

And I am finally there

And all the angels they'll be singing

Ah la la la, ah la la la

I la la la la love you

I don't wana break before

The tour is over

I'm gona make it mine

Yes I, I'll own it

I'm gona make it mine

Yes I'll make it all mine

And timing's everything

And this time there's plenty

I am balancing

Careful and steady

And reveling in the energy that everyone's emitting

Well I don't wana wait no more

Oh I wana celebrate the whole world

I'm gonna make it mine

Oh yes I'm following your joy

I'm gonna make it mine

Because I, I'm open

I'm gonna make it mine

That's why I'll show it

I just love the way he writes songs....he's got unique phrasing and puts in words like 'emitting'. Haha....sounds physics-ish.

Happy CNY 09

Just wana wish all my Chinese friends a Happy Chinese New Year! LOL.


Too bad the fireworks are't as good as last time. But it's so smoky that Boulevard can't be seen!

Non-Mushy (or is it?)

Sighs. I miss my hearthorb. Cos with him, it is different. It's like....I can be a bestfriend talking to him and still have this "connection" and also totally respecting him. But I'm glad we didn't become an item. Relationships have a way of disrupting the process of getting to know each other. Friendships are always the best way to start. At least now we're talking and just being friends which I think is best. Rather than jumping into a relationship and end up not talking at all. Well, I foresee that Christine will still not be in a relationship this year but I'm considering my options and making more friends. But....anything can happen. And I heard the hearthrob might be studying in Swinburne next year. Woohoo? Really unsure if that's gona be a good thing or a bad thing.


But one things' for sure....gona concentrate on my music, work and studies.


Haiyak!!

He Takes Care of Me =)

Yup. That's right. Western countries are having an economic low down which means it's gona affect most South East Asian countries as well. I heard from a guy who quoted this,"When America coughs, the world catches a cold." Kinda true ain't it?


As you all have heard (or may not know) about 45, 000 people are gona be jobless after CNY. And that is sad. I really am happy that I have job! It's during this time that money disappear overnight. I watched CNN a week or two ago and it was reported that there were many suicide cases because of the global recession. And the suicide cases are all those big and successful business people earning probably millions. It is pretty alarming how these people lost their money overnight and resolved to take their own life. And all because of what? MONEY. But can't blame them. I mean, they've relied on their money that without it, they just don't know any other way to live. (Well, truth is, nobody can!) LOL.


And so it all boils down to this....do we just live for money? I think for a person who is an atheist or an agnostic, the answer is yes. So we put our trust in money and when it's gone, take your own life? Wow. That's pretty.....boring I must say. There MUST be more to life than money. There has to be. We all want a purpose. For many, their purpose is to earn money. But what if there's no more money? Then there wouldn't be purpose anymore right? So what's our purpose? Living for God is my answer. Money is not the answer. Money comes and go. God's the same yesterday, today and tomorrow and all the days to come.


So who or what do we rely on? God? Or money? Money is happiness, happiness is short-lived. God is joy and joy is forever - even if we don't have money. Cos there's always other things to be thankful or grateful for.


Today, since I'm not working and there's no GB, I decided to write a song. It's a song that's about my experience with financial problems. Cos I for one am not unfamiliar with financial problems but this time, it's harder. But it's okay. Cos I still got a house to live in, still got food on the table and I've got clothes on. I can't have all the luxuries that I used to have but hey, at least I've got what I need right? Hardships definitely made me a lot more grateful for small things. This song is called....Take Care Of Me. I didn't record it cos it's not finished yet. It's not finished cos my bro suggested that I put a bridge in it so yeah, I'm still working on it but I hope this song will encourage you. =)


Take Care Of Me

When times are hard
It wrenches your heart
Trying to find someone to blame
(Trying to get out of this mess)

You blame your dad
Thinking he's not trying hard
To get food on the table
(And it gets harder still)

But there's a lesson to learn
To just keep holding on
To cherish the simple things
That's right in front of you

Chorus:
It's as though the birds sing sweeter
It's as though the sun shines brighter
Though I don't have Dolce & Gabbana
I still have clothes on my back
Isn't the Lord keeping His promise
To take care of me (4x)


Just to give an idea of how it should sound like....think of...Story of The Year. It kinda has the style. This song is for a male vocalist. Am gona hunt for one in church. LoL. Well I just can't wait for the day that I can actually record this. Anyways, I just hope it will encourage you to have a different outlook in life.


As for myself, I will take Gio's advice to stop spending on what I want but on what I need ONLY. I rummaged into my closet and found loads of clothes that I don't wear anymore and decided to give it to those who needs it more than I do. All of them are still in good condition. There's one Adidas tee(and the only Adidas that I have!) that's still good. The person who receives it will be thrilled! =)

Palak 'Dented'

Why did I bother apologizing in the last post?? I don't think it was the politic post that made you angry didn't it? It was definitely the Edward Cullen post. I'm not apologizing for that.


Anyway, life must go on!


One of the things that I don't like about Chinese New Year..........



MY NEIGHBOURS ARE FRIGGIN PLAYING IT AND FOR GOD'S SAKE, I WANA SLEEP!!!! IT'S 10PM!!!! BELOM CNY!!


A casualty happened early in the morning at work. Well, I was in the kitchen and my boss asked me to so something. Thierry was taking in all the 'tiang'. So, I go out of the kitchen door to do my thing. He comes in the kitchen door with the 'tiang', doing his thing. And collision happened between my head and the 'tiang'. My God! It didn't hurt! But it was embarassing! Dahlah I takut Thierry rasa bersalah...Accident bah. It happens. Aku ok. Cuma.........PALAK AKU BENJOL!!! =( It was red at first. So I attempted using makeup to cover it. (Thanks to my bag that's filled with junks I never take out!) But then...it still doesn't work! Still red!


Oh my forehead....DENTED! D=

Sincere Apologies

To the offended,


I see that you are offended and I would like to say I'm sorry that I did. When posting that post, I didn't intend it to anok anyone or insult anyone. But when I read it again, it did sound like it and I really am sorry. At times, I'm just such a brainless moron who doesn't think about what happens after I post a blog post. It's my fault and I don't blame you for being mad at me.


Actually my intention is just to tell about Malaysian politics and wanted to just make us young people realize how important being a good leader is so that we can lead the country in future. I suppose you did misinterpret it and I shouldn't have used that example. It's really mean of me to. And I'm really not proud of what I did. So I deleted the post.


Just so you know why I didn't post anything on my cbox or any blog post before this, I had internet problems. I don't just let my friends "fight" for me and I just cower behind. No, I don't wana do that. I got myself into this shit and I'm gona make up for it. My friends have got nothing to do with this. So, leave them alone. It's me that you're angry at.


If I do know you personally, please do tell me. I will gather up all my courage to apologize to you personally, face to face. Just e-mail me at christine.scribbles@gmail.com. I only guess that I know you but I don't wana apologize to the wrong person and I don't wana jump to conclusions. And if you don't wana accept my apology, fine by me. But if you wana wage war with me, I'm not gona participate. I don't wana waste my energy just to be mad and bitter. You're not gona get what you want anyway.


If I don't know you, please, you're just wasting your time.


I don't care what you have said about me. After all, they're just words. Words that will just leave me unscathed. People will listen to those who knows me well. People will listen to my friends and family.


I wana thank my friends and family for being very defensive and thank you all for standing up for me even though I wasn't aware of this madness till last night. Hahaha...got the biggest shock of my life to see my cbox filled with vulgarities. You all fought Gaza-Israel style! Anyway, at least now I know that there are people who actually care and I know that I can turn to you all whenever I'm in need. Really, thank you all so much! I feel.....terharu. Serious. Ganas betul you all....it wasn't necessary actually. Just ignore that person sudah cukup lah. You all just made yourselves even more angry. Buang masa you know..


To the person who is offended, would like to hear from you soon. Tell me who you are. =) If you are willing to settle this once and for all.



Undeserving of your forgiveness,
Christine
