Forgotten (Again)

--- start ---

i can only give my life, and show you all i am, in the breath i breathe
i will promise you my all, and give you all my heart, if it takes some time

let me hold you, let me tell you once again, that our love will last forever
hold me now, never let me go again, and make our love a little better

Chorus:
i love you
love you forever, baby
love you forever, woh
i love you
we are together, baby
you and me

say you hardly know, exactly who i am, so hard to understand
you knew right from the start, the way i felt inside, as if you read my mind

let me hold you, let me tell you once again, that our love will last forever
hold me now, never let me go again, and make our love a little stronger

[Chorus]

remember when you used to hold me,
remember when you used to cry
i know you love me
i know you do
yes i do

[Chorus]

--- end ---

it seems to become a habit for me to forget lyrics. this time, the red ones. quite sure the opening was sung wrongly as well. hopefully everyone enjoyed the rest of it. count is now 2.

The International

watched "The International" recently. notable actor/actresses include Clive Owen and Naomi Watts. don't really know the rest of the cast.

movie is about how a financial institution - a bank, controls the world through arms trading and benefitting from conflicts around the world. this theme of shadow organization having a hand in forming the world we live in should be familiar, as it has been explored in TV shows like Prison Break, X-Files and etc. the story traces how Clive and Naomi's characters try to bring down the bank and how impossible it is because in reality, such organization existed out of man's need and greed. If men do not make war for power or other bad stuffs, then it is possible :)

i like the movie for how the screenplay was written. the way the story was captured, it doesn't use the Hollywood blockbuster method. in short. 3.5 out of 5.

Top 3 reasons why a 'sane' person like me might travel across Penang Bridge to mainland on a Friday evening.

3. It's part of my work (how sad)
2. I miss home (obviously not on the island) or someone (obviously not living on the island)
1. I am an idiot

To get idiots like me stay on the island on a Friday evening/night, give me discounts for movie, dinner and karaoke. Or, give me crazy sales on a Friday night. All I need is a reason to stay on the island longer.

Lizard

Saturday evening

Lizard A: "What's happened?"
Lizard B: "Scalded."
Lizard A: "You ran into them?"
Lizard B: "Yea. But I got away, hid in the washing machine. Was pretty lucky, water barely missed me."
Lizard A: "Lucky you! I think I didn't see C around, probably dead."
Lizard B: "Well, at least they don't squish us."

Sunday night

Guy Monster: "Keep an eye on it! Hey, where's that CD cover?"
Gal Monster: "It's in the toilet"
Baby lizard: "Help! He sees me, he sees me!"
Bam.
Baby lizard: "OMIGOD! Someone, anybody there ... Get me out of this! I am trapped!"
(1 minute later ...)
Guy Monster: "Keep the broom, I just need the cup"
Baby lizard: "Need to climb up this thing, maybe there's a way ..."
Whoosh.
Baby lizard: "Steam?!??!"
Bang. Bang.
Baby lizard: "Stop banging the wall! Can't hold on ... Help ... Aargghhhh ... Hot! Hot! Hot! Need to climb!"
Bang. Bang.
Baby lizard: "Can't stay on the ground, water too hot. Climb!"
Bang. Bang.
Baby lizard: "Help ... help ... hel ... p ..."
(3 minutes later ...)
Guy Monster: "Hey, it's dead. Let me finish the blog and I will clean up later."

Why lay off when you have to rehire later?

My first entry in the midst of recession, my first one. I hope my bosses read this article. If you feel that you might or could be laid (off), you should read it too.

Again, V.I.P. (very interesting point) - Why lay off when you have to rehire later?
