like mash potato!

Eversince I watched the autobiography of Dorothy Dandridge on HBO, I have found myself humming to this tune all the time, unknowingly... all-the-time.

It's, in my personal opinion, one of the most sweetest and romantic songs on earth, ever!

Why? Read the lyrics for yourself.

I only wished I could get my hand on the mp3 somehow.

And, I'd love to have this song to be on my playlist during my wedding one day. That, and some other songs that I have mentally take note of.

That's all...

ps: this song was sung by Ace in American Idol final 7. And I thought he totally ruin it with his ala-Nanny-Fine voice. With that face, what a pity...

That's All
by Connie Francis


I can only give you love that lasts forever
And a promise to be near each time you call
And the only heart I own for you and you alone
That's all, that's all.

I can only give you country walks in springtime
And a hand to hold when leaves begin to fall
And a love whose burning light will warm the winter night
That's all, that's all.

There are those I am sure have told you
They would give you the world for a toy
All I have are these arms to enfold you
And a love time won't destroy.

If you're wondering what I'm asking in return, dear
You'll be glad to know that my demands are small
Say it's me that you'll adore for now and evermore
That's all, that's all.

All I have are these arms to enfold you
And a love time won't destroy.

If you're wondering what I'm asking in return, dear
You'll be glad to know that my demands are small
Say it's me that you'll adore for now and evermore
That's all, that's all...

me and my big mouth!

earlier this year we were assigned with our 2006 projects which will be counted for during our final year assessments. i was assigned with this one BIG project which were going to involve the company's entire resorts' system.

however, as time goes by, the project got scrapped little by little, and in the end, i was left with none. just like most of my other previous projects!

worried about my so-called 'career advancement', i consulted my manager (my first manager who recently have returned back from doing his Master). i told him about the situation and my current position. he said he'll try to find something for me and asked that for the meantime, i should try to research and initiate some too! and we both agreed.

eversince then, whenever our second-in-command boss informed the managers of any initiatives/projects, he will volunteer my name. (and i thought the act of voluteering is by oneself, not by other person!)

don't get me wrong. i'm grateful of this bcoz during the time i was assigned to the ex-boss, i was on the very top of her list of 'ignore-this-people-from-any-of-my-projects-and-let-them-rott'. so, having the situation turned the other way around, i'm sure to be promoted from this 'god-forsaken' position by next year, insya allah. so, i know i'm grateful. i should be grateful.

so, anyway.

as of last week, apart from the current systems which i'm supporting and one project about to complete, i'm assigned to 2 new projects.

on monday, i was called into discussion with the 2nd-in-command boss (after her discussion with my eager-beaver manager). as a result, i was to assist her in another project, doing research for something, which of course i can't disclose in here.

she asked if i could handle it? how do you say NO to your big boss???

fine... 3 projects in a year. gre-at. sigh...

and to top of the creme de la creme, my Manager this morning pass to me two pieces of papers.

OHW-GAAWD! NOT ANOTHER ONE!!!

he said this project is the BIG ONE and everyone have their eyes on it! If I do not want it, he'll 'auction' it to the others.

I haven't given him my answer yet.

Am currently contemplating while staring blankly at those papers that are lying in front of me...

Are all these too big for me too bite?

Or should I be like a phyton and say 'AAAAAHHHH'...?

ps: i still have lots of work to do right now, but i just need to let these things off of my chest!

ps: can't wait for my trip to Indon (although am currently facing tight financial constraints!)

crazeeeee long

"break it down"
taking a bit of a "break" from the work that's been on my shoulder since forever!

Actually not forever lah kan, started the project since Mid last year...

right now things are 95% completed and i can have some space to do my own stuff (like Blogging).

missed my "old" lifestyle. leisure shopping, blogging, going to cinemas, hanging out, etc...

nowadays, i only have time for uh, hmm... work? blergh!

"travelling without moving"
even my circle of friends have been reduced to almost none! muahahahaahahah! hahhhh ! haha...! hah! *SIGH*

the only people I managed to "bully" (pun intended, Kak Tik! heheh!) are my cousins whom I usually "merempat" with... maklumlah, sekarang nih tgh jadi musaffir! ;P

but, things will change for the better soon enough.

when everything's in place i shall make the announcement to the WHOLE WORLD!!! (korang pedulik apa kan? macam lah aku nih Siti ker, Mawi kerr... ) Watch out for this space.

"let me entertain you"
since work are reducing (wishfull thinking), my first girls-nite-out event with my 2 chiccas will be the Pesta Malam Indonesia this 15th April - keren banget!!!

Sinner helped bought me the rm82 tix for the arena.

One thing worries me though: The usually rowdy Indonesians-concert-goers. (No pun intended. Really!)

However, I will not think of that aspect too much. I'm only looking forward to HAVING A BLASTS on that nite!

If only SO7 were there too!

"tunggulah aku di kota itu..."
But that's ok.

Come May, yours truly and her lovely friends will again stand on the ground of Yogya and insyallah, mingle with our "heros" as we did in 2005!!!

30 DAYS TO GO AND COUNTING!

WOOHOOO!!!!

"and when a hero comes along"
Have you seen Cleo's list of 50 most elligible bachelor? what elligible? some of those guys are with girlfriends!

Please don't lead us on to believing these people are up for grabs!

Life's been stressfull enough.

"working 9 to 5"
aiyo!
it's almost 2pm.

gotta pen off!


"goodbye, goodbye, good friends goodbye..."
'til next time!

Twentysomething
Jamie Cullum

After years of expensive education
a car full of books, and anticipation
I'm an expert on Shakespeare, and that's a hell of a lot
but the world don't need scholars as much as I thought

Maybe I'll go travelling for a year,
finding myself, or start a career
i could work with the poor, though I'm hungry for fame
we all seem so different, but we're just the same

Maybe I'll go to the gym, so I don't get fat
all things are easy, with a tight six-pack
who knows the answers, who do you trust
I can't even separate love from lust

Maybe I'll move back home, and pay off my loans,
working nine to five, answering phones
don't make me live for my friday nights,
drinking eight pints and getting in fights

I don't want to get up, just let me lie in
leave me alone, I'm a twentysomething

Maybe I'll just fall in love, that could solve it all,
philosophers say that that's enough
there surely must be more, ooh

Love aint the answer, nor is work,
the truth deludes me, so much it hurts,
but I'm still having fun and I guess that the key,
I'm a twentysomething and I'll keep bein' me

I'm a twentysomething, let me lie in,
leave me alone, I'm a twentysomething

hahah! What a joker!

How sexy are you?
Find out your sauce level.

You're SEXY (if only you knew it)
Who, me? Yes, you. Pardon us for pointing it out, but your lack of pretension is what makes you so attractive. The cleavage-boosting bras and midriff baring tops are not for you: you're just not comfortable flaunting your skin. Yet, often, that's even sexier than an eyeful approach. Men find you intriguing. Sure, you can come across as aloof, and some lesser-spirited men are put off by your stand-offishness - but once a bloke gets to know you, he's hooked. Foolishly, he thinks he's the only one to discover how sexy you are. We know better.

Boost your sex appeal by: taking a compliment. Not grumbling about your so-called flaws. Letting your humour shine through.

ps,/em>: Picked this up from Mysara's blog. Decided to give it a try, gave as-honest-as-possible answers, and... voila!
gilo ko apo?
;P

what a beast!
