Paramore: The Only Exception [OFFICIAL VIDEO]

Last Friday I made my boss played the guitar and we sang some songs in the office. Boss has picked this song. Usually I am not so into mainstream music but this is different. I have never looked at the lyrics so closely and I like the fact that it is both sad and hopeful. (I especially like the highlighted sentences):

Lyrics:

When I was younger
I saw my daddy cry
And cursed at the wind
He broke his own heart
And i watched
As he tried to re-assemble it

And my momma swore
that she would never let herself forget

And that was the day that I promised
I'd never sing of love
If it does not exist


But darlin',
You, are, the only exception
But, you, are, the only exception
But, you, are, the only exception
You, are, the only exception

Maybe i know, somewhere
Deep in my soul
That love never lasts
And we've got to find other ways
To make it alone
Or keep a straight face


And i've always lived like this
Keeping it comfortable,
distance, and up until now
I'd sworn to myself that I'm content
With loneliness
Because none of it
was ever worth the risk, but...


You, are, the only exception
You, are, the only exception
You, are, the only exception
You, are, the only exception

I've got a tight grip on reality
But I can't let go of what's in front of me here
I know you're leaving in the morning, when you wake up
Leave me with some kind of proof it's not a dream

Oh

You, are, the only exception
You, are, the only exception
You, are, the only exception
You, are, the only exception
You, are, the only exception
You, are, the only exception
You, are, the only exception
You, are, the only exception

And I'm on my way to believing.
Oh, And I'm on my way to believing.

Saw this today. Quite like it. Wonder how someone would change an octave so naturally without sounding too wrong. :)

Insomnia

I have been suffering from insomnia lately. I want a really good sleep but I don't know how.

I even try taking this kind of drink, it helps a little I guess.

Yesterday mom double-boiled some birdnest for me. I guess it did helped but I had many dreams and involving work and family. I got up 7.15am today (Sunday).

More better sleeps please....

Plant from Mid Valley, still here!

Plant from Mid Valley is still doing OKAY after 2 years! Isn't it amazing? It has been by my side all this while. I want to see it grow forever, even if it would outlive me.

nonsense session at T Forty Two

Last Sunday the nonsense gang gathered in Bangsar Village. AK, TV and me. It was such a long time ago since we last met AK...well...we last met him on his wedding day. Now he is going to be a dad soon!!!

We had fun catching up and talking nonsense. I guess that's what friends are for. I think the next gathering should be in Oct on someone's wedding. *ahem*

We didn't have the chance to eat the cakes there. It was not very appetising when we check it out at their counter. Maybe because it was late...7pm?? The drinks were fine. Nice couch though.
