Leona Lewis - Bleeding Love


Closed off from love
I didn't need the pain
Once or twice was enough
And it was all in vain
Time starts to pass
Before you know it you're frozen uhm ooh ooh ooh yeah

But something happened
For the very first time with you
My heart melts into the ground
Found something true
And everyone's looking round
Thinking I'm going crazy

But I don't care what they say
I'm in love with you
They try to pull me away
But they don't know the truth
My heart's crippled by the vein
That I keep on closing
You cut me open and I

Keep bleeding
Keep, keep bleeding love
I keep bleeding
I keep, keep bleeding love
Keep bleeding
Keep, keep bleeding love
You cut me open

Trying hard not to hear
But they talk so loud
Their piercing sounds fill my ears
Try to fill me with doubt
Yet I know that the goal
Is to keep me from falling

But nothing's greater
Than the rush that comes with your embrace
And in this world of loneliness
I see your face
Yet everyone around me
Thinks that I'm going crazy, maybe, maybe

But I don't care what they say
I'm in love with you
They try to pull me away
But they don't know the truth
My heart's crippled by the vein
That I keep on closing
You cut me open and I

Keep bleeding
Keep, keep bleeding love
I keep bleeding
I keep, keep bleeding love
Keep bleeding
Keep, keep bleeding love
You cut me open

And it's draining all of me
Oh they find it hard to believe
I'll be wearing these scars
For everyone to see

I don't care what they say
I'm in love with you
They try to pull me away
But they don't know the truth
My heart's crippled by the vein
That I keep on closing
You cut me open and I

Keep bleeding
Keep, keep bleeding love
I keep bleeding
I keep, keep bleeding love
Keep bleeding
Keep, keep bleeding love
You cut me open and I

Keep bleeding
Keep, keep bleeding love
I keep bleeding
I keep, keep bleeding love
Keep bleeding
Keep, keep bleeding love
You cut me open and I
Keep bleeding
Keep, keep bleeding love

Taiwan - Day 5

A brand new day for a brand new start.

I took some shots from the public bus on our way from our hotel to the MRT station and then we had to take the MRT and alight and changed to another bus.
Guess where we headed?










The famous 阳明山 Yangmingshan



We were lucky enough to be at the mountain on the last day of their Flower Festival and got to see the various beautiful cherry blossoms aka Sakura!







And in Taiwan you get to see all the Funny English to make you laugh and feel happy.




I dono what Samuel was trying to do...

Anyway, we climbed up the mountain and it was bloody tiring.. we climbed like 2km uphill, on the roads and through shortcuts in the woods.





And I thought this was a FOX.


This was what i discovered.




We finally reached high but not the top of the mountain.


And we took a bus up to this small old rundown shop which serves some food that only they sell.. Like the SUPER-THICK-SKINNED chicken and bla bla bla... that's the only thing i can remember cos the chicken skin was so fat, thick and hard that it cannot be torn or bitten apart. I guess it's because their chickens are reared uphill and the weather is so cold and to adapt themselves, the chicken's fats all grow on their skin to protect themselves from the cold.






Then we took a bus down to a public hot spring. It is the most traumatic scene I've ever seen in my life. I'm sorry I'm not accustomed to their culture. I saw a big bunch of old women all naked in the crampy hot spring. Scariest scene ever. We walked out. Same with the guys. HAHA. But I wonder what they saw.


Alrite then we settled for private hot spring in a hot spring hotel... Really cannot dip in for too long, my head gets dizzy like lizzy. It was really HOT and I couldn't get in it for a while until I set my heart to dip in it. It was above 40 degree celsius. You may think it's nothing. Try it yourself.


Then we travelled back to Danshui and went to Old Street to shop. The guys and girls split up to do their own shopping and our only means of communication?
Walkie Talkie.




Thanks to the guys, they bought so many Fireworks.
YEAH We put fireworks!!!

We used the Hotel's bicycles and cycled somewhere...






It feels very cold to cycle by the beach at night.. it's like cycling in 10 degree celsius with the freezing wind blowing against you and your bare face. AND we cycled past a police check to a bridge where there were some barricades blocking, stopping people from going further out to the bridge.
It feels as if there's no law and we moved the barricades and cycled to near the end of the bridge where there are ships at sea and we could see the lighthouse and put our FIRST fireworks.



It feels damn exciting until the end of our first fireworks.
Suddenly, there was a very loud SIREN where the whole village could hear. Then the coastguard said some hokkien words through the loud speaker which the whole village could hear, something which we knew didn't welcome us to put the fireworks on the bridge. That very moment, we quickly CIAO with our bicycle and cycled off through the muds and all.
PHEW.
Luckily we didn't end up in some police station.

Life goes on...

Damn exciting and fun.
BEST EXPERIENCE IN TAIWAN.

JYPS

A sudden urge to write about my Primary School life cos Joan was talking about our Primary School motto on her blog and stupid Joan mistook Tampines Primary's motto as Junyuan Primary's motto.

Junyuan Primary School's motto - Work To Excel


A little introduction to my Primary School

I spent all my 6 years of primary education in Junyuan Primary School (JYPS) from 1995 to 2000 and I made a lot of good friends and went through quite a time.

Primary 1/6 - I was good friend with 2 other guy friends (both of which are my brother's friends siblings but of same age as me) and we played all the shit together while waiting for school and waiting for our brothers. Then I got scolded during my 1st Art lesson for talking in class and got a punishment by standing for the period. Then there was also a "Battle" between the boys and the girls (me and 2 other girlfriends). Luckily the Chinese teacher likes me muahahaha. My Chinese teacher was a very fierce man, he's Mr Eng and he dotes on the girls in class. not like those teekopeks u see on the street. Canning on the hand for having wrong spelling words. Damnit and we got those "We Don't friend him/her, we fake fake friend him/her... " typo situations. And then I didn't get good results and I got banished to a "bad" class in Primary 2.

Primary 2/9 - 1st in class. muahaha. I made a good friend, but she moved house and transferred school. :(

Primary 3/1 - 1st in class (as in register). hahahaha. exchange Sailor Moon stickers all...

Primary 4/2 - Let my classmate copy Chinese test :/ Then I made a good friend too, but she moved house and transferred school. We wrote letters :)

Primary 5/2 - I became a prefect, and made another very good friend and many other good friends. We write letters... all our secrets and made each other gifts and everything. sounds so fun.

Primary 6/5 - I still am a prefect and still are very good friends with my friends. Had the opportunity to travel to Melaka with my good friends and got a Friend of Singa Gold award. wooooooooot! Then we went our separate ways...

Most remembered teacher - Mr Jaya
And another teacher who taught me in Primary 6. She was very strict and fierce but all she did was for our own good. I can't find her on the internet - Mdm Chua Mui Jek

And in my 6 years in JYPS I have never known Joan Tay until Secondary School. haha wth.

Taiwan - Day 4

We travelled to Taipei. It was another 2.5 hours bus ride. Well look at the money I had in my wallet! I felt so rich. muahaha. Just that they're not in SGD.



We reached our destination and had to walk a distance to the MRT station and attracted many eyes by the road. All the noisy luggages dragged on the street. The word "luggages" suddenly look so weird to me. hmmmm anyway, the temperature in Taipei was so much colder than in Taichung. Freeeeeezing cooooold. Shiver me timber! Ok that phrase was supposed to be used by pirates, but who gives a damn? haha




Waited for Yong Min who's flying over alone from Singapore on SIA!!! wah lao, good chair, good food, good drinks. Im jealous. Look at all the stupid luggages and bags we have in the MRT station. Imagine you see a group of youngsters carrying so many luggages and bags in the MRT station, you might think that they're running away from home.

Now there's 7 of us.


Here we goooooo... Heading towards Danshui (Beach) by the MRT.




Danshui


Personal bus service pick up by the hotel. wooot. We arrived at the Longview Hotel near the Danshui beach. Super freezing breeze!


This was the room we were supposed to squeeze in. BUT, we changed to 2 rooms instead as 1 bathroom is not enough for all 7 of us.


Public bus in Taipei.

Dinner


Everytime you hear a certain tune, you know that the waste truck is around the corner. Such a good idea to inform the shop assistants in the night market who wants to throw their rubbish.

Taiwan - Day 3

Woke up early in the morning at 6+ to have our breakfast and head off to the theme park at 剑湖山 "Janfusan" called Janfusan Fancyworld. It wasn't easy to get there. We took a 15 minutes cabride to the Taichung train station and took a shuttle bus up the mountain. A total of 2+ hours.






The very exciting DIVING MACHINE. It seriously is 90 degree STRAIGHT down! I didn't sit of course. hahaha. My heart cannot take such an excitement, it must just stop halfway and you find a corpse there and you'll have to call the ambulance and speak in Chinese frantically and you will feel so sad for dragging me on the ride and the ambulance will have to climb all the way up and down the mountain for a couple of hours and waste so much petrol. So.... I was saving them from going through all the trouble :D


Ferris Wheel. It really is high. If you still do not know, I'm afraid of heights. But, this is alright as it does not sway THAT much in the air. phew

i hate vikings.





The rest of them even took the roller coaster with the legs flying around in the air and no floor on the ride. whoa. crazy! sucks. again, i saved them from all the troubles.
The stupid ride behind the bench in the picture below goes up and down like a Viking and spins and spins and spins giving all the heart attack during the ride. It put my heart to the test and it's been to its limit. Everyone was dizzy and wanted to vomit after this ride. HAHAHA. Dammit.

Samuel you suck at drums. hahaha




On the Ferrish Wheel. Damn, the twit is taking over me!!



We've put ourselves to the tests and we all felt like vomitting. What a test! It was our last day in Taichung and we revisited Feng Jia night market and got all the things we wanted to get cos stuff in Taipei are much more expensive. Sooooo........ we got everything we want.

He's the MAN!
