记得

记得
张惠妹

词:易家扬 曲:林俊杰

是谁先说永远的爱我
以前的一句话
是我们以后的伤口
过了太久
没人记得当初那些温柔
我和你手牵手
说要一起走到最后
我们都忘了
这条路走了多久
心中是清楚的
有一天有一天都会停的
让时间说真话
虽然我也害怕
在天黑了以后
我们都不知道会不会有遗憾
谁还记得
是谁先说永远的爱我
以前的一句
是我们以后的伤口
过了太久
没人记得当初那些温柔
我和你手牵手
说要一起走到最后
我们都累了
却没办法往回走
两颗心都迷惑
怎么说怎么说都没有救
亲爱的为什么
也许你也不懂
两个相爱的人
等对方先说找分开的理由
谁还记得爱情开始变化的时候
我和你的眼中
看见了不同的天空
走的太远
终于走到分岔路的路口
是不是你和我
要有两个相反的梦
谁还记得
是谁先说永远的爱我
以前的一句话
是我们以后的伤口
过了太久
没人记得当初那些温柔
我和你手牵手
说要一起走到最后
我和你手牵手
说要一起走到最后

Dessert Night!

To celebrate A's visit, we rounded off our night of food binge at G7 by driving down to Prive at Keppel Marina and stuffing our faces with dessert. Yum yum!
Perhaps due to excessive bingeing, A pleaded for a walk around the marina to help digestion. And so it was, we discovered Singapore's latest make-out spot, stumbling over a few discreet couples in the dark, as we chatted loudly about the "loh-man-tic" atmosphere of our surroundings and peering curiously at the security cameras, blinking red lights indicating that they were supposedly working hard at capturing errant couples in the dark (or an aspiring burglar or two). Worth a visit, even without "loh-man-tic" partner in tow. :)
Princess Leia! Cutey Clare, playing excitedly with Mr. Smiley the Balloon, just before we headed off to our night of food binge.

Itsy Bitsy Spider


On my usual round as the weekend warrior round the reservoir, I spotted an interesting phenomenon. Little patches of white dotted the slopes nearby.
It seems lots of little arachnids have decided to make their homes there.

222

Nope, not of Satanic numerical significance. Nor is it of some Chinese "easy life!" significance.

I've been so busy at work, and what with the world collapsing around our ears, the second anniversary of the birth of this blog has come and gone quietly.

Seize the day! Carpe diem. That had been the rallying cry two years ago, when I started on this journey. It remains so, even after all that has transpired since. Just take off the rose-tinted goggles and the blinkers while I'm zooming down the highway of life...

It has been an interesting and eventful two years. Much has changed. And yet, much remains the same. That applies not just to the events going on around me and in my life, but also to the way I have looked at the world and the people in it. Lessons in life are gleaned continuously.


"Come, my friends. 'Tis not too late to seek a newer world. Push off, and sitting well in order smite the sounding furrows; for my purpose holds to sail beyond the sunset, and the baths of all the western stars, until I die. It may be that the gulfs will wash us down; it may be we shall touch the Happy Isles, and see the great Achilles whom we knew.
Though much is taken, much abides; and though we are not now that strength which in the old days moved earth and heaven, that which we are, we are - one equal temper of heroic hearts, made weak by time and fate, but strong in will
To strive, to seek, to find, and not to yield."
- Tennyson
