Love Lost by The Temper Trap

Every weekend i would switch on the TV and let it stay on Channel 10..

and wait for this song to come on air.. cute MTV!


------------------------------------------------------------

Our love was lost
But now we've found it
Our love was lost
And hope was gone

Our love was lost
But now we've found it
And if you flash your heart
I won't deny it
I promise

I promise

Your walls are up
Too cold to touch it
Your walls are up
Too high to climb

I know it's hard
But I can still hear it beating
So if you flash your heart
I won't mistreat it
I promise

I promise

Our love was lost
In the rubble are all the things
That you've, you've been dreaming of
Keep me in mind
When you're ready
I am here
To take you every time

Oh, our love was lost
Lost, lost, lost, lost..
Our love was lost
But now its found

REST

Ooh baby, ooh baby
Bereaved lady
Ooh baby

Ooh baby, ooh baby
He carved you like a stone
Then left your side
Stop, stop

Ooh baby
Slow steady
Heaven's waiting
For you baby

Ooh baby, ooh baby
He took your soul
And left you out to dry
Stop

Now, you're home free at last
And the cracking whip
That howled
And scarred your back
Has stopped
Ooh, it stopped

Ooh baby, ooh baby
Love baby
Your, your only crime
Ooh baby
Stop, stop

Ooh baby, ooh baby
Love baby
Your, your only crime
Ooh baby
Stop, stop

Squashed

Yes, i am officially squashed..not in my apartment (yet).. but in my apartment block.. All of a sudden (after 9 months), i realised i have neighbours!!! *roll eyes* How? Where did all these strange people come from???

There's this strange lady on my right.. let's call her Skinny Blondie..

Skinny Blondie does shift work.. how do i know that, you ask? i came back from work one day and this is in the evening, mind you.. the sort of timing where people listen to the 6pm news

while preparing dinner.. while doing that i heard someone knocking on my door.. i opened it and she started explaining to me that she's resting at the moment and asked if it will be alright for me to lower the volume of my TV.. i was quite taken aback (i didnt expect anyone to be sleeping at that kind of time) and apologise because i have disturbed her rest.. i know how irritating it is to be disturbed by idiots (like the Korean guy on my left, but this is another story, see below)! so i obliged, no worries!

the second time Skinny Blondie knocked on my door, it was a Saturday afternoon.. the house next to my apartment block was having a pool party in their backyard as it was a hot summer day.. they blasted music from their backyard the whole day.. i was sick of listening to their genre of music, so i put on my own from my ipod and the speaker Zen bought for me.. and of course! Skinny Blondie came over and asked me to lower the volume of my music.. i told her it was just to counter the music coming from the neighbour and she said she had already been there to tell them how loud their music was!!! Geez.. i wasnt really that bothered, so i just said, "No problem.." and adjusted the volume accordingly..

last week i had Skinny Blondie knocked on my door before 8am! i was getting ready to leave for work.. she was obviously pissed off this time round when i opened the door.. there were no greetings whatsoever when i opened the door and she asked me, "What's all the banging about?" and i was like, "HUH? What do you mean?" with a totally confused expression.. " it was then she realised she had accused the wrong person - me. What the? Must it always be me? I definitely didnt hear any bangings nor made any!

BUT, whoever lives upstairs was doing a lot of banging last night!!! Gosh, it was after midnight and the idiot upstairs was probably playing basketball or dropping things over and over again! or trying to build a wardrobe like i did a couple of weeks ago but didnt managed to do as well as i did.. ha!

Now, the ultimate idiot.. is the Korean guy on my left! My turn to keep going over and knocking on his door to ask him to shut up!!! i would like to think that i'm giving these kids enough time to have fun and party.. so my limit is midnight.. both occasions are around 12.30am.. but he is now trying his very best to piss me off by laughing very loudly, inviting lots of his loser friends over and talking loudly on his mobile on his balcony at 1am..

our balconies.. are so close i can climb over and and strangle him!!! Watch out, Korean Loser!

2

Yes, post no. 2 for 2010.. am i slack or what???

It's difficult to write freely when i am now working.. stuck in an environment for 9 hours out of the 24 hours of a day.. so much and so little can happen in the 9 hours and i cannot really write about it, can i? Nope.

Anyway, it's the Easter Super Long Weekend! Good Friday and Easter Monday are public holidays, plus the weekend and it's 4 days of HAPPINESS!

Yesterday night i received a IKEA wardrobe as a birthday present from Sis and Fish, delivered by Ken and Jeff!!! It was a shock coming out of the shower to see 7 missed calls on my mobile.. apparently Sis has secretly asked Ken and Jeff to run the errand for her, since she is so far away.. well, they arrived at my apartment just as i went into the shower and i didnt hear the phone at all.. that explains the missed calls!

Poor boys were standing in the cold for 20mins and it was a windy night.. when i finally went down, i saw them holding onto the package (taller than them), one on each side, i was dumbfounded.. such great friends! Initially i was thinking of going to IKEA on my own to get the wardrobe, how silly! I just saw how much it weighs just now.. 48kg.. no wonder the boys were struggling last night!

Time really really really flies.. next Friday i have an appointment with a migration agent.. =)
