We'll do it all
Everything
On our own
We don't need
Anything
Or anyone I
f I lay here
If I just lay here
Would you lie with me and just forget the world?
I don't quite know
How to say
How I feel
Those three words
Are said too much
They're not enough
If I lay here
If I just lay here
Would you lie with me and just forget the world?
Forget what we're told
Before we get too old
Show me a garden that's bursting into life
Let's waste time
Chasing cars
Around our heads
I need your grace
To remind me
To find my own
If I lay here
If I just lay here
Would you lie with me and just forget the world?
Forget what we're told
Before we get too old
Show me a garden that's bursting into life
All that I am
All that I ever was
Is here in your perfect eyes,
They're all I can see
I don't know where
Confused about how as well
Just know that
these things will never change
for us at all If I lay here
If I just lay here
Would you lie with me and just forget the world? Hady Mirza

I won't let you down
I will not give you up
gotta have some faith in the sound
it's the one good thing that I've got
I won't let you down
so please don't give me up
because I would really, really love to stick around
heaven knows I was just a young boy
didn't know what I wanted to be
I was every little hungry school girls pride and joy
and I guess it was enough for me
to win the race? a prettier face!
brand new clothes and a big fat place
on your rock and roll TV
but today the way I play the game is not the same
no way
think I'm gonna get me some happy
I think there's something you should know
I think it's time I told you so
there's something deep inside of me
there's someone else I've got to be
take back your picture in a frame
take back your singing in the rain
I just hope you understand
sometimes the clothes do not make the man
all we have to do now
is take these lies and make them true somehow
all we have to see
is that I don't belong to you
and you don't belong to me
freedom
you've gotta give for what you take
freedom
you've gotta give for what you take
heaven knows we sure had some fun boy
what a kick just a buddy and me
we had every big-shot goodtime band on the run boy
we were living in a fantasy
we won the race
got out of the place
I went back home got a brand new face
for the boys on MTV
but today the way I play the game has got to change
oh yeah
now I'm gonna get myself happy
I think there's something you should know
I think it's time I stopped the show
there's something deep inside of me
there's someone I forgot to be
take back your picture in a frame
take back your singing in the rain
I just hope you understand
sometimes the clothes do not make the man
well it looks like the road to heaven
but it feels like the road to hell
when I knew which side my bread was buttered
I took the knife as wellposing for another picture
everybody's got to sellbut when you shake your ass
they notice fast
and some mistakes were build to last
that's what you get
I say that's what you get
that's what you get for changing your mind
and after all this time
I just hope you understand
sometimes the clothes do not make the man
I'll hold on to my freedom
may not be what you want from me
just the way it's got to be
lose the face now
I've got to liveHady Mirza

I haven't looked for bullimic pictures of Lindsay Lohan yet ! But Jingwen did !
I've been trying very hard to start studying, but everytime I open my book, I get this sick feeling that is probably calling me to get something to eat, and once I do, I don't start studying anymore. So far I have completed:
1.chinese ?
2.english ?
I'm not really sure if learning vocabulary can be considered studying.
I am still pissed with that ignorant stingray who killed Steve Irwin without knowing what a great man it had stung. The whole of Sunday I was just munching popcorn from NTUC and watching the tribute show to Steve Irwin on animal planet. In the night I was switching between Animal Planet and Channl 5 which was showing Charlie's Angels.
I LVOE CHARLIE'S ANGELS :D I love Cameron Diaz, Lucy Liu, Drewberry More (she's my least favourite though) and Demi Moore ! Plus Luke Wilson and Matt Leblanc. I would prefer Full throttle to the first one, but the first one was great too :)
I'V GOT TO START STUDYING ! SOMEBODY HELP ME !
Hail Mary full of grace the Lord be with youBlessed are you amongst womenand blessed is the fruit of thy womb JesusHoly Mary Mother of GodPray for us sinners nowand at the hour of our deathAmen

I spent the entire night finding anorexic pictures of Marykate Olsen. I'm problematic I guess. The pictures really scary. I mean, just look at her.
Look at her boney legs!
This is marykate olsen smoking.
Compare Ashley and Marykate Olsen ! The skinnier (like duh) one is mary-kate. The one on the left.
AHHH freaky
I guess being anorexic is way scary. Too skinny is freaky. And to think I prefer mary-kate over ashley olsen! Now I think Ashley Olsen is a much more demure sweetie pie, and hopefully she doesn't smoke. And I never knew finding pictures takes such a long time. I spent 3 hours just finding these few pictures.
THERE IS NO CATECHISM & PIANO LESSONS TODAY ! YAY so free. Perhap I should go find bullimic pictures of Lindsay Lohan. Oh no, the problematic me is starting up again.
I need my mum to force me to study ! Without her I am a totally discipline-less. And I have to start History homework and geog worksheets soon. Maybe tomorrow? :)

SYDNEY (AFP) - World-famous Australian "crocodile hunter" and television environmentalist Steve Irwin has been killed by a stingray blow to the chest while filming a documentary on the Great Barrier Reef.
The larger-than-life Irwin, 44, known for his fearlessly enthusiastic handling of even the deadliest of wildlife, was killed when a stingray barb punctured his heart during underwater filming off northeastern Australia.
"He came over the top of a stingray and the stingray's barb went up and went into his chest and put a hole into his heart," said the ebullient Irwin's longtime producer John Stainton, who was with him at the time on Monday.
"It's likely that he possibly died instantly when the barb hit him, and I don't think that he ... felt any pain," a tearful Stainton told reporters in the city of Cairns. "He died doing what he loved best."
Police and officials at Irwin's zoo confirmed his death in the freak incident that took place at about 11:00 am (0100 GMT) off the coast of Port Douglas in the northeastern Australian state of Queensland.
Irwin brought to the surface unconscious and underwent cardio-pulmonary resuscitation, Stainton said.
He was evacuated from his research vessel by helicopter but ambulance service officials said he had suffered a puncture wound to the left side of his chest and was pronounced dead on the scene.
Stingrays have several sharp and venomous barbs on their tails that they use to defend themselves when they feel threatened, but Stainton insisted that Irwin had not provoked the creature while filming.
"I have never met a more professional person in my whole life nor a more passionate person in my whole life on wildlife issues," Stainton said of the iconic Irwin, who was making a show about deadly sea dwellers.
But experts stressed that stingrays were not usually vicious and rarely attacked and killed humans, unlike the range of deadly creatures Irwin had confronted in the past.
"You think about all the documentaries we've made and all the dangerous situations that we have been in, you always think 'is this it, is this a day that maybe his demise?'," he said, adding that nothing scared Irwin.
Australian wildlife filmmaker David Ireland said that the stingray's tail was "like a bayonet on a rifle".
"If it hits any vital organs it's as deadly as a bayonet," he said.
Police said Irwin's US-born wife Terri had been informed of his death while hiking in Tasmania. The couple had two children aged eight and three.
The garrulous animal-lover's rallying cry of "crikey" when faced with a crocodile, snake or ferocious-looking spider made him an Australian icon across the world.
His "Crocodile Hunter" show, in which the tousle-haired adventurer appeared in his trademark khaki shorts and shirt, was first broadcast in 1992 and has been shown around the world on the Discovery cable network ever since.
His outspoken persona became so popular that he won a cameo role in a Hollywood movie, "Dr Dolittle 2," starring US comic Eddie Murphy.
Australians mourned the loss of one of their most famous countrymen, with Prime Minister John Howard leading the public outpouring of grief over the death of a man whom he knew well.
"I really do feel Australia has lost a wonderful and colourful son," Howard said. "He took risks, he enjoyed life.
"He brought immense joy to millions of people, particularly to children, and it's just such a terrible loss. He was one of those great quintessential Australian faces that people recognised everywhere," added the grim-looking prime minister after parliament was told of his death.
Ordinary Australians called into their local radio and television stations expressing their shock and sadness at Irwin's passing, while others flocked to the television star's Australia Zoo in Beerwah, on the Sunshine coast of Queensland state, to lay flowers in his memory.
"We just thought he was a good guy for what he did for Australia. He put us on the map, I reckon," said Rod Cameron at the zoo.
Another mourner was more sanguine. "He died doing what he loved, didn't he?" said tourist Glenn Batson.
The son of a plumber who launched his own reptile park, the young Irwin became a crocodile trapper, ridding residential areas of their reptilian threats before eventually taking over his parents' park.
His fearless approach to the animal kingdom however provoked international outrage when he involved his infant son in one of his death-defying antics.
In early 2004, he fed a four-metre (13-foot) crocodile with one hand while clutching his baby son Bob in the other during a show at his Australia Zoo reptile park.
But Irwin was unrepentant when confronted about the incident in an interview. "I will continue to educate my children and the children of the world so they don't go into the water with crocs," he said.
Irwin's voice remained on the answering machine of his zoo on Monday, reminding callers with a whoop: "Remember, they rule," referring to his dangerous documentary subjects.

I can't believe this. Why must the media lose such a brave and brilliant animal lover ? His courage can tantamount to the biggest creatures he's faced. I will always love Crocodile hunters , and I will never forget its extraordinary host, Mr Steve Irwin.
