It's been some time since I've been moved by any song... was moved a little when I heard it in the midst of the movie... my heart was clogged really bad then. I guess it's cleared up a bit... haha yeah.

As I listened to it just now, it really felt like Pa's singing it to me... to us. And I will sing it to you... my one and only. :) No matter how hard it has been and can be, let's continue to lift up our eyes to the hills... because we both know where our help comes from. :)

Take my hand, take a breath
Pull me close and take one step
Keep your eyes locked on mine,
And let the music be your guide.

Won't you promise me
(now won't you promise me, that you'll never forget)
We'll keep dancing (to keep dancing)
wherever we go next

It's like catching lightning
the chances of finding someone like you
It's one in a million, the chances of feeling the way we do
And with every step together, we just keep on getting better
So can I have this dance (can I have this dance)
Can I have this dance

Take my hand, I'll take the lead
And every turn will be safe with me
Don't be afraid, afraid to fall
You know I'll catch you threw it all

And you can't keep us apart
(even a thousand miles, can't keep us apart)
'Cause my heart is (cause my heart is)
wherever you are

It's like catching lightning
the chances of finding someone like you
It's one in a million, the chances of feeling the way we do
And with every step together, we just keep on getting better
So can I have this dance (can I have this dance)
Can I have this dance

Oh no mountains too high enough, oceans too wide
'Cause together or not, our dance won't stop
Let it rain, let it pour
What we have is worth fighting for
You know I believe, that we were meant to be

It's like catching lightning
the chances of finding someone like you (like you)
It's one in a million,
the chances of feeling the way we do (way we do)
And with every step together, we just keep on getting better
So can I have this dance (can I have this dance)
Can I have this dance

Can I have this dance
Can I have this dance

I've been putting off writing this entry for some time... I can't exactly pinpoint the reasons to this inertia... but yeah, I'm back. :)

I've been waiting... waiting for a turning point somewhere down the road the past months, a defining moment of sort - it hasn't really been the best of seasons; I lived through a terribly undisciplined season, not just spiritually, but really in all aspects. There were days in the boarding school apartment where I gave up ample amount of sleep because I was onto some work which I wanted to complete... and as a result I was unable to function fully the next day.

Yesterday was one such day. I ended up not being able to concentrate during the counselling seminar that May (my school's full time counsellor) signed up for me and another colleague as part of the counselling team... kept dozing off. :|

The person most affected would had been Char; met up with her to spend the evening with her... and she had to bear that dead-pan look of mine... well. Thankful it ended off well though. :) She threw me a surprise that I didn't manage to catch beforehand! Haha... we caught "Catching Adam Cheng" at the Action Theatre. I caught a little news on this local play over Channel Newsasia some weeks ago while commuting on the bus... never thought I'd actually catch it! Didn't communicate the thought of wanting to watch it to Char or whatsoever... so it's pretty amazing how we ended up catching it! Haha... yeah, catching dramas... that'll be one of our nice pastimes. :)

Returned home and crashed immediately after showering. It's Aunty Witwit's day off today... so it's my turn to look after mom. Am actually typing this in her room right now with her looking at me... heh. I showed her High School Musical 1 & 2 on the laptop in the morning! Haha... I was on the other computer looking through my past entries (those in 1999) and categorizing them... it was quite a surreal feeling. It was really reading through the entries of a person of the past... was quite appalled by my own worldview back then! And all the pompous and superfluous vocabularies... hahaha. I think most of my boys write so much better than I did back then!

Reading them brought back memories... mostly good ones (thankful!). I relived some school scenes back in those days of 99S31... brought some smiles to my face. :)

One thing that's outstanding from my writings back then though... is that I found myself to be really self-absorbed. Talk about empathy... I myself didn't have much back then as well, and here I am fretting over the boys not being empathetic to the people and situations around them... is it really a phase of life that all teenagers go through? Mmmm I guess in the end it's circumstantial bah. They should all grow up alright. Haha... :)

Everytime I look back... I'm just thankful that He's the God of the second chances.

As with this entirely new design without a tinge of the previous beige one and its similar-colored predecessor that lasted the past five years or so... here's a new chapter in the life of someone who knew he could never make it in this life without his Maker watching over him.

:)

酸甜苦辣喜怒哀乐我们齐体验
故事写到这个段落   说声谢谢   我们会在相见

回想起第一天的时候   四处都是陌生的脸孔
随着日子慢慢认识你们   有你们作伴我不寒冷
就在这个熟悉的地方   我们印下脚步不可忘
知道有天我们会再见面   Till the day we meet again
真心的感谢你，my friend

Here you go... a rather half baked new design for the website.

The aesthetics aside, it is the first design template that I've created without the usage of the table tags... wholly cascading style sheets. Yeah... the old school me finally managed to move on a little with times. :)

There're much more to be done here not just in terms of sprucing up the designs - given my schedules, I guess I've got to work out a plan and roll the components out bit by bit, in manageable portions while I undertake other pressing matters as well.

Planning for the big day next May... it's been coming along pretty well I must say. Looking back, I still can't believe that it's happening!!! :D The latest that Char and I settled with regards to preparations are our wedding rings... have a really good feel of the chosen pair. :)

So much to do this holidays.. haha. Okay I'm going to be a little random (and a little cranky due to my accumulation of sleep debts) before I call it a night. I'll save a longer rant to another post in time to come.

I think I have weird feet. I realised that the unique way my shoes get worn out are at the front ends where my little toes are. Ah. Probably not weird feet but broad feet. Haha... man this is so random.

Glad to see Julian and Desheng today - they popped by the Hub after their papers. They're representative of a bunch of people whom I'm kind of missing. Haha... as for the two of them, really hope they'll do well... that they would still be able to be part of the family.

I wonder how next year will be when the population doubles to two levels.

I wonder... if I am able still to give the kind of attention that I really wish to give.

Mmm. Haha alright I think I better catch up with some sleep. Till then. :)
