We Are All Innocent

One day
You'll have to let it go,
Oh One day You'll stand up on your own, you'll stand up on your own
Yeah
Remember losing hope,
Remember feeling low,
Remember all the feelings and the day they stopped
We are, We are all innocent, we are all innocent
We are, we are, we are,
We are all innocent, we are all innocent
We are, we are

Thanks to David Cook.



You ever heard songs that just capture you...sweep you off your feet, when even when your eyes are about to close, when you bow your head in listlessness, when you daydream yourself into oblivion, when life just bogs you down, and you wish you could pick up, leave everything behind and just attempt, again, to live a life of meaning.

These days, I wonder, and wonder again, what kind of life most of us lead. A life of meaning. What does that mean?

Will anyone mourn my passing? I remember Stephen Covey's message, one which I read while slumming it in KL, living on my meagre salary in KL. My uncle had given me the book, which I read befoer bedtime.

Begin with the end in mind. Visualize your funeral, and the people there - your family, colleagues, friend, strangers...? What would they say about you? What do you want them to say?

Somehow, along the road, I feel that I lost touch with the end. Tommorrow, next week, is another day, another chance.

I don't have anything to offer, but thoughts and dreams, and the wish to get out of here.

Enough is enough, isn't it?

Today, Friday the 18th, seems to be a day of reconciliation.

For my country, and for my faith as well.

Surely, something good?

Wish list:



1) Tickets to the World Rainforest Music Festival in July. I've been in Sarawak almost 3 years, I should go!!

2) Etienne Aigner NY Hobo in palomino - they don't have it in Asia though. This one would last the turns of the fashion tides, dontcha think?

3) Diamond solitaire necklace, set in gold or platinum.

4) Nike workout pants

5) Diane von Furstenberg wrap dress

6) Jamie Oliver's My Guide to Making You a Better Cook, supposedly the cookbook to end all cookbooks - I'll get to learn the basics like which part of the cow is the sirloin, etc etc.

7) Nigella Lawson's other books other than How to Eat: The Pleasures and Principles of Good Food, which has been my bedside companion, together with a steaming mug of green tea/cocoa/BONEX since I lugged it home 3 weeks ago. I want her other books!! Other books I fell in love with online are Sherry Yard's Secrets of Baking, and Dorie Greenspan's Baking: From My Home to Yours. Oh then there would be her Pierre Herme/Paris books as well....sigh. Decisions decisions...wish I could get them all. Wish I earned US dollars (ok, maybe not US dollars..euros?)



Not too much, eh?

Baby After His Bath

This is the fat one after a bath, cuddling up to us on the Sofa and hogging all the cushions.



Grumpy before his nap (understandably since bathing is his least favourite pastime, and he is terrified of the hair dryer we use on him).

Now, you see why he's called Baby?
