苏芮:牵手
Title: Holding hands

因为爱著你的爱 (because I'm in love with your love)
因为梦著你的梦 (because I'm dreaming your dreams)
所以悲伤著你的悲伤 (so i'm feeling miserable about your misery)
幸福著你的幸福 (and my happiness is because of your happiness)

因为路过你的路 (because I've walked where you walked)
因为苦过你的苦 (because I had suffered what you suffered)
所以快乐著你的快乐 (thus i'm happy about your happiness)
追逐著你的追逐 (and aiming for what you are aiming)

因为誓言不敢听 (because I dun dare to listen to vows)
因为承诺不敢信 (because i dun dare to believe in promises)
所以放心著你的沉默 (that's why i believe in your silence)
去说服明天的命运 (in tackling tomorrow's fate)
没有风雨躲得过 (there's no storm avoidable)
没有坎坷不必走 (no difficult paths we can skip)
所以安心的牵你的手 (so i feel secure in holding your hand)
不去想该不该回头 (not thinking abt whether we should turn back)

也许牵了手的手 (perhaps after holding hands)
前生不一定好走 (the future path might not be easy to walk)
也许有了伴的路 (perhaps after having a companion)
今生还要更忙碌 (this life will be even busier)

所以牵了手的手 (thus after holding hands)
来生还要一起走 (still want to walk with you in my next life)
所以有了伴的路 (thus after holding hands)
没有岁月可回头 (time will not be turning back)

*in chinese, walking together in this life means to go through life together.

every single word in this song..is reasonating in my heart. and in many others who are thinking of their loved ones right now =)

so fast... i still rem saying "aiya still got a long time b4 she goes to HK.." and suddenly we're helping her squeeze all her stuff into her luggage and waking up early in the morning to go to airport (actualli i couldnt sleep at all.. juz stayed awake cuz had to get up at 3am.. i think only cm managed to sleep.. n my sis slept too cuz she was sick with flu). then off she goes into the departure hall and the plane took off le! it is january in full blast action!!!

when she went into the departure hall, i suddenly "bu she de" her to go!! haiz why i so emo?? muz be due to lack of sleep, plus worry abt whether she can find her way by herself and if she will be alright alone for 5 mths.. when she didnt call back after her plane arrived in HK (we knew cuz cm checked online.. the plane was late by 1 min! haha we r dat kan chiong..) i was in such a panic.. luckily she managed to call us in the end.. turns out she couldnt use her roaming service, and she had to buy a prepaid card first..the pay as u roam got to manual select operator first.. who the hell would know that???

after knowing she is safe i finally managed to sleep.. after sleeping for abt an hr, we went to buy a web cam so we can chat with her on skype.

first time gonna be separated from my sis for so long.. but hopefully she will have fun during this trip and enjoy herself thoroughly!!

eyes saying "are u sure u know wad u r doing.."

did i say quit bogging him down with my worries? seems like i juz cant stop worrying.. sigh..

i shd try to relax.. we've got a plan.. plus we are still young and have the freedom to try living overseas. we shd go ahead n give it a try n not wait till we are both older. and i have the most responsible man on earth who has decided to do the most responsible thing for me..

but i juz cant stop worrying >_< i'm happy n excited yet worried at the same time. can anyone tell me if i am normal?

doesnt help at all dat work stress is still high.. but i am trying to remind myself everyday that i shd be thankful for a job at these unstable times, and my job is not really as jialat as some other frens..

lilian be grateful for wad u have!!

random post

dunno why.. maybe i'm too sensitive.. but i feel that when ppl hear dat me n cm have decided to get married.. their first tot is.. "cuz he's rich. so can get married so fast"

yes his dad may be quite rich.. but i'm not marrying his dad! i'm marrying cm! cm n i dun haf much money, to tell the truth. but he wants to go overseas for study. and we wan to be together, so we decided to ROM. it's our own decision! it is because he is responsible enough(to go for 2 weeks holiday is one thing. to stay abroad for 2 years is another thing!) we are not getting a big wedding at a big hotel! not even getting a flat! just a simple rom! why do ppl think we are at an advantage cuz his dad is rich n can pay for everything? precisely we cant pay for everything, we choose not to have a big wedding. just a rom for family n close frens. it's a matter of choice! yes he's got a car. but it belongs to his dad! not him!! u think he can just decide to sell it for money or smthg?? or if he stop driving he can save the petrol money?? the petrol money is paid for by his dad oso wad!! and he is really grateful for it too!

then u ask "he bought u a diamond ring. who can afford a diamond ring when he's still a student?" Yes he bought me a ring. At year-end christmas sale and discount of 40%, plus it's not a big ring, and even tho its from Lee Hwa, it is NOT DESTINEE (hope no one asks me anymore). He spent a lot of effort looking for the best deal.. to be exact, the cheapest but most presentable deal. good n cheap!

a teacher even ask me "why nv ask for a bigger diamond ring?"

BECAUSE i would have said yes no matter he gives me a ring or not. But the fact that he saved up his money and tried so hard to find the best ring he could buy for me touched me tremendously, and made me even more convinced that i can put my trust in him. yes he can easily ask his parents for money to buy a bigger ring. but seriously, would u marry a person like that?

yes my ring is not bigger than others but to me it is the prettiest ring i've ever seen and the only one i want to have. yes we probably are not gg to have a normal wedding dinner. yea his dad can probably pay for it easily, but we are not gg to ask him to do that! we are the ones making this decision despite the fact that cm is still a student. so we have to be responsible for our decision! again, i ask u if u will marry a person who only knows how to ask money from parents?

i envy those who go around choosing flats with their to-be-husbands.. but anywhere with him is home.

i'm glad to have frens who are happy that i've found my happiness. and to those who think me n cm are having an easy time cuz of his family background, i simply dun care. deciding to get married is just the beginning.. do u know how much more we have to do and plan and save up for to really be married? it is a lot of hard work.. no joke!

all these have been cooped up inside of me.. just got to let it out.. i know cm is under a lot of pressure as well.. he's trying to make everything work out.. so i wouldnt need to worry.. and he's working hard on his fyp project.. altho his prof says its ok if it doesnt work.. its just a fyp research proj.. he is still trying his best and he wants to make it work. all i can do to try to cut down on spending, save more money.. dun quit now especially i may not be able to get the same pay elsewhere.. and stop bogging him down with my worries.. i will try..

at the same time, i am glad i'm doing this. i wish that everyone can find their happiness too.. it is not easy, but it is definitely worth it..
