I am supposed to be mugging my butt off but look what I did, I did a Chinese translation of my current favourite song. T_T Well, at least I hope I did an okay job at the translation, considering how my English is not very pro. I love the song though... Really. I like it enough to translate the lyrics into Chinese when I'm supposed to be studying.
I always needed time on my own 我一直都需要属于自己的时间 I never thought I'd need you there when I cry 我从没想过我哭泣时需要你在身边 And the days feel like years when I'm alone 而当我孤单的时候感觉度日如年 And the bed where you lie is made up on your side 床上你睡的那一边已整理好了
When you walk away 当你走离 I count the steps that you take 我数着你迈开的脚步 Do you see how much I need you right now? 你看到我现在有多需要你吗?
When you're gone 你走了之后 The pieces of my heart are missing you 我心的碎片都在思念着你 When you're gone 你走了之后 The face I came to know is missing too 我所熟悉的脸庞也跟着消失了 When you're gone 你走了之后 All the words I need to hear to always get me through the day 那些我听了才能度过每一天的字句 And make it OK 让一切没问题 I miss you 我好想你
I've never felt this way before 我从来没有过这种感觉 Everything that I do 我所做的一切 Reminds me of you 都会让我想起你 And the clothes you left 你留下来的衣裳 they lie on the floor 它们躺在地板上 And they smell just like you 闻起来就跟你的味道一样 I love the things that you do 我爱你做的那些事情
When you walk away 当你走离 I count the steps that you take 我数着你迈开的脚步 Do you see how much I need you right now? 你看到我现在有多需要你吗?
When you're gone 你走了之后 The pieces of my heart are missing you 我心的碎片都在思念着你 When you're gone 你走了之后 The face I came to know is missing too 我所熟悉的脸庞也跟着消失了 When you're gone 你走了之后 All the words I need to hear to always get me through the day 那些我听了才能度过每一天的字句 And make it OK 让一切没问题 I miss you 我好想你
We were made for each other 我们是天生一对的 Out here forever 在这里,永远 I know we were 我知道我们是的 Yeah Yeah
All I ever wanted was for you to know 我只不过想让你知道 Everything I do I give my heart and soul 所有的事我都用我的心和灵魂去做 I can hardly breathe, I need to feel you here with me 我快窒息,我需要感觉你就在这里和我在一起 Yeah
When you're gone 你走了之后 The pieces of my heart are missing you 我心的碎片都在思念着你 When you're gone 你走了之后 The face I came to know is missing too 我所熟悉的脸庞也跟着消失了 When you're gone 你走了之后 All the words I need to hear to always get me through the day 那些我听了才能度过每一天的字句 And make it OK 让一切没问题 I miss you 我好想你

Weekend trip to Batam, Indonesia
My namecard template.
Me, at the messay director's desk, doing work for him free-of-charge! Tsk, I'm like, the sales executive and I don't even have a fixed wage? SAD~~
My dearie cousin. Love her!! <333>
My cousin's kid. He is so cute and huge~! (By the way, he's the fat baby I mentioned in my blog post in I think this year's Feb when I went to Batam)
This is the Indonesian custom of congratulating businesses. Ours filled TWO streets. O_O Minus the small bouquets of flowers delivered that were crammed inside the shop.
Just came back to Singapore last night. Although I went to Batam for a whole near four days, I was so busy and tired throughout I don't even see it as a vacation.
[[* Thurs night: *]] Reached Batam, helped prepare and plan for religious 座谈会 on Friday as well as helped buy and carry beverages for my uncle's shop's grand opening on Saturday. My little cousin had Chinese homework and had to study for English and Maths tests on the next day. Tutored her until 11 plus PM before we finally finished and she went to bed. Slept together with her, but I only fell asleep only at 8 in the morning and woke up at 10.
[[* Friday: *]] Newspapers reported that there will be a 6-hour electricity turn-off for selected areas of Batam. What you call it Electricity Conservation Exercise? Went for market trip and helped prepare desserts to serve people coming for the 座谈会。If you think Cheng Teng was easy to prepare, then you're sadly wrong! Just preparing the Pong Dua Hai nearly killed me. Remind me to smile extra for the aunties at the dessert stalls when I patronize. Ugh. Anyways, after that, for two hours or so, we went to the shopping mall across the street for lunch and went shoe-shopping until evening, when we headed home for a quick dinner before religious friends started arriving. During the event itself, I was busy doing up the company profile for my uncle so that he could use it on Saturday during the grand opening. Slept at 2 plus, woke up at 4 plus, stayed awake until morning.
[[* Saturday: *]] Grand opening! Super shag. Helped to carry the catered food back from the place where the food was prepared back home. Also went to buy watermelons and cut them up. 100 people's share handled by 3 people! O_O We had a backup generator which couldn't give us too much energy but enough to get by. Blackout lasted from 8 plus AM til 3 plus PM. After the food was ready, we had to rush to bathe and then i became one of the main photographers. Somewhere around 4 in the afternoon, I gave up and napped for half an hour, then hid myself in the room until 6 plus.
At night, the others went to 喝喜酒, and my da jie, my aunt's niece and me were left at home. Me and the niece had to help my uncle do work. Blackout occured again from 6 plus until around 10 plus. -_- Finally got work done at near midnight and by then we were itching to death from mosquito bites. When we were finally back in the bedroom, I had to help the niece do up contents for her mobile phone. Did that until 3AM, slept at near 4AM and woke up at 6 plus AM, then at 7plus AM, and then finally at 8 plus AM.
[[* Sunday: *]] Finally, we could do a little shopping. Went with the little kid to the shopping mall opposite and played for a while but didn't buy much. Went to the supermarket later to get instant mee goreng (best in the world) and tempe. My da jie bought thousand-layer cakes as well. Went home and was packing halfway when we realised that we left stuff at the supermarket item-storage counter. We then headed back, and then stopped for afternoon tea at a dim sum restaurant located at a weird corner in the mall. Nice food!~ After that, we went back and rested for a while and then we were already on our way to the harbour. Bah.
At the end of the four days, my conclusion was: my uncle invited us over just so to make use of us as free labour! Bah! And I forgot to claim the money for the Lexmark catridge I helped him buy! T_T My money~ But still it was a nice trip to remember. My little cousin stuck to me the whole time. I love her so much~! Hee hee. Too bad Heng didn't come along this time round..
By the way, I went to rebond my hair today. It was really fast and nice and good, but my hair's gonna smell weird for the next few days... :/
