Adele’s

Goodness gracious!! for some who didn’t catch a single episode of this season’s American Idol except Jordin Sparks’ audition, i’m soooooo into the finale for her (AND i can’t believe i’m blogging about her!!!)! can’t get enough of her. i’m totally blown away and indeed proud and happy for her!! and i don’t even know her! personally or even as one of the contestant on the show and also her progress since the season started!

I’ve caught all of her performances for the entire season last night and downloaded all the songs she sang (and listening to them over and over again - *my sis should be slapping her forehead now going OH NO!!…. sorry, mei! can’t help it. it’s just me.) and including the latest This is My Now. i think she carried out the song beautifully well. It totally IS her song and her NOW.

I stayed up so late last night to watch for the second time, her final performance in the show. might catch the finale again for the second time tonight just for her. oh my gosh! i’m getting fanatic already!!

Anyway, i had to listen to This is My Now a few times to get the lyrics ‘coz i couldn’t Google it. here it is peeps:

This is My Now

There was a time
I packed my dreams away
Living in a shell
Hiding from myself
There was a time
When I was so afraid
Thought I’ve reached the end
Baby that was then
But I am made more than my yesterdays

This is my now
And I am breathing in the moment
As I look around
I can’t believe the love I see
My fears behind me
Gone are the shadows and doubt
That was then
This is my now

And I have the courage like never before (yeah…)
I’ve settled for less
Now I’m ready for more
Ready for more

This is my now
I am breathing in the moment
As I look around
I can’t believe the love I see
My dreams behind me
Gone are the shadows and doubt
That was then
This is my nowwwwwwwwwwwww

Can’t believe the love I see
My dreams behind me
Gone are the shadows and doubt
That was then
This is my now
This is my now

Okie dooks… back to reality now from Hollywood. sigh…. reality’s not looking or sounding as nice. but i suppose we can’t have it all eh? at least i’m pretty sure things will get better as they already are seeming to get into places on their own. Thank You, Lord!

Gotta go get some rest now. not feeling well. can’t believe i’m doing all this when i’m not feeling well. Jordin must be some girl!! =) have a Sparklingly beautiful Friday and weekend ahead y’all! xoxo….

Crush

Another tough day to get by,

Nothing to do with the on goings around me,

The haunting thoughts of your most adorable smile,

Or the quick flashes of your charms weakening my knees,

Nonsensical smiles creeping up on my face,

Incessant blushes getting me into trouble,

Only you can make my heart race,

Like a wild horse away from the stable,

On guard I have to be when it comes to you,

Persistently my mind will turn your way,

Everything then seems mistily concealed,

Zooming in and out of foolish hopes and dreams at the bay.

Just thought i should blabble a little here. i’ve been having tons of poem ideas but haven’t got the chance/time to pen them down. sigh….

Then again, i’m sort of to blame. hmmm… maybe not. well, it’s not my fault that Wentworth Miller’s so intriguing!! Can’t stop watching Prison break day and night this week!

Well, i was after all sick in bed since Sat. you know, the usual flu, sorethroat, fever… am still having it actually. but i think, being the workaholic that i am, coming to the office would probably cure me faster than just lying in bed.

Anyway, i was just wondering if someone who really matters would be so sweet as to dedicate a poem as such to me one day:

A day of life in this chaotic swirl…
Drifts me away to another world…
Emeralds n diamonds covering a thousand mile…
Leading me to this amazing girl…
Eyes of an angel that makes me smile..

Doesn’t it just make you go "Owh………..so sweet………" and maybe "That’s romantic!!" ? =)  Anyway, a friend of mine wrote that and sent it to me. i’m not sure if it’s for me though. if it was, then he’s really sweet. too bad he’s taken. haha!

Well, i’m just yapping along this time. have been having lotsa Prison Break dreams everyday this week. whether it is during my night time beauty sleep or my get well soon afternoon naps. i keep dreaming of criminals and bars! oh, and Panama!!

Michael and Lincoln better get there soon and let me finish the second season this weekend. then, i can get back to my tear-jerking Grey’s Anatomy. =)

i’m just missing everyone. my bestie Rai will be leaving to the States on the 15th of May. Sob sob… My best friend Alethia will be back in June but i’ll only get to see her in July. Anyhow, we’ll be spending wonderful 17 days in Australia together in Aug. i soooooooo can’t wait!! =) then, my dearest sister Lydia will be back in July. looking forward to seeing her.

This month should be quite a busy month of work and shows. anyone caught Spiderman 3 yet? too bad i’m ill and can’t go to the movies this week. Hoping to catch My Fair Lady in the middle of the month. Oh, and Pirates of the Carribean at the end of the month. and so many meal appointments!! another fattening Adèle up month! sigh…

Ok, before i bore you all to death. i shall stop now. my dear handsome friend Afiq’s coming up with my lunch (Chicken Cornish from Secret Recipe’s) anyway. by the way, he’s a chef! what more could a girl ask for?? i hope his girlfriend thinks the same! =)

Toodles y’all……..
