SHAYNE WARD LYRICS No Promises

Lyrics a lame. But the melody is nice, I careograph a mix of Malay, Indian and modern steps and Azeuchry followed!

Hey baby, when we are together, doing things that we love.
Every time you're near I feel like I'm in heaven, feeling high
I don't want to let go, girl.
I just need you to know girl.

I don't wanna run away, baby you're the one I need tonight,
No promises.
Baby, now I need to hold you tight, I just wanna die in your arms

Here tonight

Hey baby, when we are together, doing things that we love.
Everytime you're near I feel like I'm in heaven, feeling high
I don't want to let go, girl.
I just need you you to know girl.

I don't wanna run away, baby you're the one I need tonight,
No promises.
Baby, now I need to hold you tight, I just wanna die in your arms

I don't want to run away, I want to stay forever, thru Time and Time..
No promises

I don't wanna run away, I don't wanna be alone
No Promises
Baby, now I need to hold you tight, now and forever my love

No promises

I don't wanna run away, baby you're the one I need tonight,
No promises.

I don't wanna run away, baby you're the one I need tonight,
No promises.
Baby, now I need to hold you tight, I just wanna die in your arms
Here tonight.

Great Music

The day you become an adult is the day where your perception of music changes. I don’t know mine is in what year but I just notice of a major change of mine recently. Well, not recently, guess about five years ago, the year we got married, methinks.

Young bloke, cute face, tricky dance step, love mentioned at least 7 times and a hit would be the song I fallen in love before.

But those no longer give me satisfaction.

I wanna hear song that’ll give me full meaning. That will make me stop my world for a moment and listen hard to the lyrics and try to find any resemblance in my life or people’s around me. That will make me imagine the video clips that might be produced from the song or the mega concert the band / singer will hold. I can almost hear people shout ‘for more’. That will make me swim around between piano, violin and great unique voice. Combination of piano and violin will always bring me down to my knees. They are my favorites.

And a good song, that kind of good song, always come with the package: the whole album. I hardly find any album that has only one good song, unlike Malaysian’s. Call me unpatriotic or whatsoever.

Evanescene – the piano really kills me, really takes my heart away. It is both beautiful and furious. My favorite of the first album was My Immortal (the video clip was fantastic) and the second album was Lithium. No one, no one except Amy Lee of Evanescene who could describe properly a feeling of depression, both in lyrics and in melody in Lithium. The combination of rapid piano and hard-bang drum is just perfect. She went slow and hard intermittently, making you feel exactly like what a depression would feel, a life full of rollercoaster ride.

James Blunt – this is what I called a perfect album. You see, I never know that James Blunt was an army officer before but listening to his songs made me understand the situation of a war and how actually the soldiers are suffering inside. We keep blaming the war parties but have we ever thought on how it actually feels killing? Looking at the concert, I am mesmerized and stunned for the whole hour. And I still feel the same each time I look at it, as if it is the first time I see it.

Linkin Park – if I am a teenager and feeling mad to my parents, this is the album that I will listen to. All the anger and frustrations are channeled in between Shinoda’s rap and Chester’s strong voice. You may also scream together with them for the album allows a few good space to do so.

You see, when you combine the words satisfaction with the RM you come out when you buy an Album, you can hardly see any Local that would do that to you. You’d just feel that RM better well spent at a nice cafe who plays video clips.

Can You Keep A Secret

I have just finished Sophie Kinsella’s Can You Keep A Secret? And it is hilarious!!! It truly is. I just can’t wait for the movie to come out, not that I know that they are making the movie, but I just hope, so hope, that they will make a movie out of the book. It is her best book, I guess, compared to the shopaholics series. I just love this book! Love this book!

Anyway, if they are making a movie, I think the cast shall be as listed:

EMMA CORRIGAN: Character is a bit like Teri Hatcher in Desperate Housewives and Renne Zelweger in Bridget Jones, so it could be either of them but they are too old for Emma. We need an innocent face, who’ll look adorable and beautiful even more when she is mad or sad. Perhaps Grey in Grey’s Anatomy?

JACK HARPER: Someone who is with stubble, definitely the guy who play Mark Sloach, however-it-is-spelt, in Grey’s Anatomy. I so wanna kiss him!
Lissy: Don’t care.

Connor: Someone too good looking to be true.

That snob colleague of hers, Artemis: Any bitch.

That snob cousin of hers, Kerry: Any older bitch.

That psycho roommate of hers, Jemima: A groomed bitch.

Mom and Dad: Don’t care.

What ya think?

Most Efficient Time

The Urgent and the Important

When I was in Operation, everything was urgent. Emails came needed reply. Phone calls received needed answers. Vessel itinerary gotta be updated daily, hourly if ETA is nearer. My work revolves around responding to what is urgent. Therefore, the style of working is very much alerted by either the boss, the situation or the vendors.

However, when I do less Operation and more on contracts, I found that it was a bit difficult for me to adjust. I always miss datelines, I always found things not done according to the level of importance. It took a while for me to realize that, this is when I am supposed to work independently.

It took a lot of effort to change the style of working.

But I found a way.

First, I gotta find what is my most effective time. It is actually morning 8:00 – 9:30, and afternoon 3:00 to 5:00. So I found that I accomplish more if I start my day by straightly going into the heaviest and most long enduring project, like any tender document or contract or board paper. But it went all wrong if I start the day by nice breakfast and long coffee with friends. I categorize this as Important Tasks.

I spent the ‘sloppy time’ doing the urgent thing then. Times like when friends are stopping by to ask questions, boss coming over to discuss, meeting being held where people don’t need enough of my attention. I spent this time reading emails, speed-reading any contracts, approving any invoices or writing any letters that don’t need much reference. I categorize this as Urgent Tasks.

Most important, the last 10 minutes of the day must be spent going through the list of the URGENT and the IMPORTANT Tasks, weighing whether I should spent more time doing what and vowing that tomorrow will be a better day.

You know, it does take a lot of effort. But at least it works.

Helpless Googling!

Okay. So if you read my blog on the new year resolution, you'd find out that most of things are already checked.

Taking IUCD out. Check.
Do that potongan Zakat. Check.
Cook every weekend. Check and hope to attain that for the rest of the year.
Save a few more thousand to ASB. Check of about 3k and going on again.
Lose a few more kgs. Not yet.
Reading chic lit every week. Check.

and a current project, to get a facial treatment shall be the focus of February.

So I have been scurrying around to find the best saloon that will do my face good. Off-counter products (tried Estee, SK, De La Mer) are off-limit, they don't do me any good, not ever. I am targeting saloon product that will offer me the facial treatment (targeting my uneven skin tones, large pores and blackheads at nose) and also product to go home to. Most importantly, the saloon must be near work so that I can frequent it monthly.


I have reckied Maria Galland, Dermalogica and Thalgo.
1. Maria Galland (Sect 14 PJ) is super duper classy with microdermabrasion machine. It is mild.
2. Dermalogica (both at Amcorp Mall and Sect 14 PJ) is actually the cheapest of all. But it has Salicylic Acid which is a taboo for dear son who is a G6PD. Not all of their product has Salicylic Acid thought, but I got a feeling that the ones targeting my uneven skin tones will probably has that venom.
3. I've tried Thalgo ( Amcorp Mall )facial at Jakarta before and it was superb. No reaction eventhough it is an algae based. But after trying de la Mer, I am having triple doubts.

So talk about the cost.
1. Maria Galland offers 9-treatment series at RM2K, a complete product (their toner has 'Colagen'!) to bring home at Rm800, bring me to RM2.8k.
2. Dermalogica offers 7-treatment series, with complimentary stuff I don't know what and home product at a total of RM1650. Thing is I don't know whether it is normal facial or facial targeting my problem, as specific as Maria Galland's.
3. Thalgo 10 treatment series is at RM1.3K something and to go home to at i think below Rm1K.

Cost doesn't really vary much, does it. But I wanna know Results and have been Googling around and can't find much.

Watcha think?

Maybank Zing Card
