Oops I Did It Again

Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah

I think I did it again
I made you believe we’re more than just friends
Oh baby
It might seem like a crush
But it doesn’t mean that I’m serious
‘Cause to lose all my senses
That is just so typically me
Oh baby, baby

Chorus
OOPS I did it again
I played with your heart
and got lost in the game(oh baby baby)
OOPS you think i’m in love,
that i’m sent from above
i’m not that innocent

You see my problem is this
I’m dreaming away
Wishing that heroes, they truly exist
I cry, watching the days
Can’t you see I’m a fool in so many ways
But to lose all my senses
That is just so typically me
Baby, oh

Chorus

Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah

“All aboard”
“Britney, before you go, there’s something I want you to have”
“Oh, it’s beautiful, but wait a minute, isn’t this…?”
“Yeah, yes it is”
“But I thought the old lady dropped it into the ocean in the end”
“Well baby, I went down and got it for you”
“Oh, you shouldn’t have”

Oops I! did it again to your heart
Got lost in this game, oh baby
Oops you!… think that I’m sent from above
I’m not that innocent…….

Chorus 2x

whee!~

The 9th of August is a holiday
We don’t have to go to school,
we all can play.
I’m dressed in my best,
especially for today!
Hip hip hooray! It’s our National Day!

Today is the birthday of Singapore
We will celebrate this year,
like never before
I don’t know how it started,
but I know it’s true.
Singapore’s a home for me and you.

So we sing!
Happy Birthday to you, Happy Birthday to you,
Happy Birthday, Happy Birthday
Hip hip hooray! It’s our National Day!

I love this song when I was young, and still do. it’s just so catchy and happy and children-ish. :tongue1 I’m so excited! I’m going to the NDP Preview tomorrow!! all thanks to Mediacorp!! haha i’m like a big fan of Media corp now cos this is the second prize I’ve won in a month! the first prize was from an online contest at their website and I won a $60 Revlon hamper (Lipstick, foundation, nail polish and a notebook haha!) ya so bcos they give me so many prizes, i’m their big fan! haha! :buck1

anw, ya my first time to NDP. and i’m sooo lookin forward to the atmosphere (tryin to ignore the heat and squashy ppl and BO and what not) and the FREE GOODIE BAG!!! whee!~ i love free stuff! haha! and i saw the feature on the packing and moving of the goodie bag on the news just now, and the bag looks quite nice aso leh..hehe..:thumbup:

saw one of my (ex)crushes the other day. didn’t expect that he would turn up for the ‘gathering’. so sad, so long never see him and now he lost weight again! :sad1 my poor baby!! haha and he’s still so nice to me! and gentlemanly!! and i finally got a clear pic of him!! and his MSN too!! wahaha! :beer:

“There are some in here you haven’t finished at all.
Mood changed. Do you finish everything you start?
I suppose not, but people are always saying you should.
When something’s not right, why drag it out to the bitter end?
Sometimes you promise.
Sometimes promises can’t be kept.
No. But they should be.”

“You know for most of my life I would have gone through this alone, but then I met you. And I finally found someone I could depend on like I’ve got this. So I guess I called you ’cause I wanted to know if that was still there. ”

“Do not look back and grieve over the past, for it is gone; and do not be troubled about the future, for it has not yet come. Live in the present, and make it so beautiful that it will be worth remembering. ”

“When I fell to the floor tonight, I was so scared, I was so terrified. Then I saw you, and I promised myself that if I could just get up, I’d walk over to you… I’d tell you how much I need you and how much I want you… and how nothing else matters. “

nothing in the end

okie i’m feelin a tad pissy now cos i was desperately tryin to find a pair of pants and top that i can wear. :cuss: those who know me well know that i absolutely abhor wearing pants, and actually so does my sis. but at least she has one pair that she can afford to loan me. now the problem is that i’m f-ing short compared to her, so therein lies the problem cos i only need to wear this pants once. how to alter and not spoil it? in the end, the kiam siap me agreed to fork out $40 if i spoil her pants by altering it. :err1

now let’s hope my heart won’t get broken on Wednesday after going to such great pains. :shiftyeyes: i think it probably will be (broken), but let’s hope for the best and i shall try to be happy. it’s all in the mind.

in other news. oh goddess this is amazing. my previous entry mentioned abt me being attracted to the guy in my office who looks like Prince. right. and i found out today, in the afternoon, after i came back from my client’s place, that i would be working with the Prince-lookalike (let’s call him Prince 2 for now haha) for a job! i can’t remember whether the job is for 1 or 2 weeks. but it’s just funny how i was just thinkin abt him yesterday and bam! today we’ve been assigned to work together. is this fate or is this fate? haha i was darn shocked to hear my senior telling me that Prince 2 and I would be working together. anw all this is just rubbish lah, at the end of it i just hope to get this job done well. heard that the finance head is a bitch, and i’m a little scared of the senior who’s in charge. so really wanna do this well regardless of who i’m working with.

trying to juggle 3 bks at one time now. one is a thrashy fiction book to entertain me aft boring eons at work. one is my stupid theory. shitamama i hate it. last one is a non-fiction self-improvement bk on interpersonal communication. haha let’s see now, considering i hv loads of fiction books to read b4 1 Feb, i gotta finish the current one asap. the stupid theory is due end jan. and my non-fiction one should ideally be completed before i go in for the difficult job with Prince 2 (see above if you’re lost). yes i’m like how conscientious about my work. i wanna do it well. and i even check my office email at home for updates for my current proj. and when my senior said she gotta “see doc 1st”, i asked her, “huh what doc?” i was wondering which document she was referring to when all she meant was that she had to see the doctor 1st!! silly girl.

ok off to my reading. today is a good day cos my current client is quite ok to handle and also of the good news about working with Prince 2! i shall fall asleep with a :tongue1 on my face haha!

Y Choose an Engineer BF?

Message: Let me tell you why girls should eventually marry an engineer over a Law, management, Arts or Medical School Graduate. He has three distinct advantages over the rest of the graduates.

Advantage 1: Secure lifestyle
=====================================
An engineer boyfriend can provide you with a secure lifestyle. At 27 years old, an engineer probably has a respectable, stable job that gives him a high income to own a car, invest, have a comfortable life, and get married and buy a house too. Law graduates are still working as a lowly apprentice in law firm. Most management graduates have just failed on their first business plan. The arts graduate is still looking for a job. And the medical school graduate is still living in a hospital.

Advantage 2: Unmatchable industriousness
=====================================
An engineer boyfriend will dedicate an unimaginable amount of his time and effort to understand you. Engineers strain really really hard to understand their work. You can believe that they will try really really hard to understand women too, just like how they understand their work, once they believe that you are the one. So even if they don’t understand you initially, they will keep on trying. Even if they still do not understand, they will figure out the correct method to keep you happy (e.g. buy diamond ring = 1 week’s worth of happiness.) And once they find out the secret formula, they will just keep on repeating it so that the desired results appear. Unlike the Lawyer who will argue with you. The Management graduate who will try to control your spending, The Arts graduate who will ‘change major’. And the medical school graduate who will operate on you. And you know what, it’s really so easy to make engineers believe that you are the ‘one’. Say that you like one of their project and they will be hooked to you forever.

Advantage 3: An engineer boyfriend will never betray your trust.
================================= ====
Let me first tell you what is wrong with the rest of the others – The lawyers will lie about everything. Management graduates will cheat your money. The arts graduate will flirt, and you probably just look like another cadaver to the medical school graduate. Your engineer boyfriend is either too busy to have an affair, and even if he does, he is too dumb to lie to you about that. Hence, an engineer is the most secure boyfriend that you will ever find – rich enough, will keep on trying to understand and please you, has no time for affairs, and too dumb to lie to you.

So girls, why procrastinate? Get an engineer for your boyfriend!

And above all, Engineers understand and applies the Right Hand Rule which means the best!!

haha my fren sent me this. so this means i can go after the IT engine guy who sits beside me at work!! the one whom i don’t dare to disturb cos he’s hard at work everyday! haha. i only talk to him like at the beginning and end of the day or something. he always asks me to join the rest of the dept for lunch, basic courtesy cos we sit side by side what. but i refuse to go for lunch with my dept anymore. (i don’t wanna blog about it, it’s the people part, and not belonging.) i wld rather lunch alone than go with them. luckily i have my sch mates who are also interning here for lunch company. anw as i was saying, as i’ve migrated to the seat beside him this week, he’s been asking me this week to join them for lunch. one of the days when i declined, he said, “again?” man, was i tempted to tell him, “honey if u ask me out for lunch alone, i’ll definitely cancel all plans with my friends and go with you!” :grin1 haha but he can’t replace jason though.

oh yea, another thing: i only realised why i’m so attracted to the other guy in my dept – i think it’s cos he looks like XX let’s call him Prince. (or PC – prince charming! wahaha) anw yea the other guy really reminds me of Prince man. either i really miss prince or they just look darn alike. saw him at the mrt stn after work but i was with jx so couldn’t talk to him. darn!

(ma asked me whether muz pay anot, but i 4got to ask! by right shldnt hv to cos still within warranty mah!) den he said he noticed dat my warranty was gonna end this yr. i was like, ya so wanna faster change b4 my warranty expires! den he was like, okie can, i order batt for u, den u treat me to lunch. i was stunned. i was like, “er okie can!” wat on earth can i say man? and i reallie need my batt! haha.

“Well, sure you’re overwhelmed. You have too many romantic possibilities running around! Before you let it get you down, think about how long you’ve been wishing for this very problem.”

There’s something about the way
You look tonight
Something about the way
That I can’t take my eyes off you

There’s something about the way
Your lips invite
Maybe it’s the way that
I get nervous when you’re around
and I want you to be mine
And if you need a reason why

It’s in the way that you move me
And the way that you tease me
The way that I want you tonight
It’s in the way that you hold me
And the way that you know me
When I can’t find the right words to say
You feel it in the way
Oh you feel it in the way

There’s something about how
You stay on my mind
Something about the way that
I whisper your name when I’m asleep
Oh girl
Maybe it’s the look
You get in your eyes
Oh baby it’s the way that
It makes me feel to see you smile
And the reasons they may change
But what I’m feeling stays the same

I can’t put my fingers on
Just what it is that
Makes me love you, you baby
So don’t ask me to describe
I get all choked up inside
Just thinkin bout the way

It’s in the way that you move me
And the way that you tease me
The way that I want you tonight
It’s in the way that you hold me
And the way that you know me
When I can’t find the right words to say
It’s in the way that you move me
And the way that you tease me
The way
Feel it in the way
Something about the way you look tonight
There’s nothing more to say than
I feel it in the way
