“No,
you don’t get to break down,
you don’t get to fall apart.
not when there is still a chance
and there still is a chance ,
okay?”
there are still rainbows and stars and family and friends (=
You can =)
Take me where I've never been
Help me on my feet again
Show me that good things come
To those who wait
Tell me I'm not on my own
Tell me I won't be alone
Tell me what I'm feeling isn't some mistake
'Cause if anyone can make me fall in love, you can
Save me from myself, you can
And it's you and no one else
If I could wish upon tomorrow
Tonight would never end
If you asked me, I would follow
But for now I'll just pretend
'Cause if anyone can make me fall in love, you can
Baby, when you look at me
Tell me what do you see?
Are these the eyes of someone
You could love?
'Cause everything that brought me here
Well, not it all seems so clear
Baby, you're the one that I've been dreaming of
If anyone can make me fall in love, you can
Save me from myself, you can
And it's you and no one else
If I could wish upon tomorrow
Tonight would never end
If you asked me I would follow
But for now I'll just pretend
'Cause if anyone can make me fall in love
Only you can take me sailing in your deepest eyes
Bring me to my knees and make me cry
And no one's ever done this
Everything was just a lie and I know, yes, I know
This is where it all begins
So tell me it will never end
I can't fool myself
It's you and no one else
If I could wish upon tomorrow
Tonight would never end
If you asked me I would follow
But for now I'll just pretend
If anyone can make me fall in love, you can
Show me that good things come
To those who wait
Currently in love with this song =)

What God wanted me to know on Facebook today =)
On this day of your life, Jessica, we believe God wants you to know ... that God is there for you to hold on. | |
 | Hold on to what is good, even if it's a handful of earth. Hold on to what you believe, even if it's a tree that stands by itself. Hold on to what you must do, even if it's a long way from here. Hold on to your faith, even if it's easier to let go. Hold on to God's hand. |
Jasmine's Father
Tonight is the first night of "freedom".
No rushed dinners.
No rushed baths.
No running to Astana for practices.
No drawing props lists.
No script writing or memorizing
No migrations, no props repairing, no twists, no grammar checks.
Nothing.
Empty.
Hollow.
And then i realize,
i miss my team.
No rushed dinners.
No rushed baths.
No running to Astana for practices.
No drawing props lists.
No script writing or memorizing
No migrations, no props repairing, no twists, no grammar checks.
Nothing.
Empty.
Hollow.
And then i realize,
i miss my team.
I miss each and every one of you.
I miss the laughter.
I miss the crazy waiting.
I miss listening to the guys' random crap shitting
.I miss listening for grammar mistakes,
and laughing at our new vocabulary.
"speaken",
"miating",
" terriblerer",
"listen to your father explain"
echoes in my mind all the time.
I miss going out on trips to buys props,
and running round and round to look for the stuff needed.
Simply put,
i miss the presence of each and every one of you around me.
We were once strangers with different paths and directions,
now,
i can't imagine what it'll be like without you people around.
i can't imagine what it'll be like without you people around.
Without Adrian
and his directing, camera and disallowing Shawn to sleep.
You were the glue that held us together when we were falling apart.
Without Esin
and her "i'm hungry" and commitment towards her character.
You proved that you were the best actress despite everything that the judges said.
Without Heah
and his super "geng" designing skills,
You showed us that the prettiest of things are self made.
Without Shawn
and his "My Lord" when being ignored and mosquito killing sessions,
You gave us the spark of random laughter when we needed it.
Without Heng
and his lateness and never-ending jumping on cement floors.
You thought us how to be patient.
Without Kuan
and his red props bag and speakers,
You showed us that being who you really are is the best acting skill needed.
Without WenXue
and her kesian role of being abused and crying from the start till the end,
You showed us real commitment can bring wonders.
We have come a long way.
The Jasmine's Father's crew has come a long way.
Remember our first meeting?
It was so formal and awkward.
Remember our first ever practice?
We did not even have proper names for the characters yet.
Remember our first ever performance?
We thought it was our last.
I am glad that i had you,
every one of you,
every step of the way.
with one less member,
we would not have made it to the end.Props team included =)
Finally,
19th April 2011.
The night which made it all worth it.
That performance was the best that our team has ever shown.
The applause and cheers from the audience filled me with pride.
We did it,
we finally did it.
And guess what?
We nailed it.
In my eyes and in my heart,
we were the champions for the night,
because we exceeded our own expectations and limits.
Our best prize?
It wasn't the 500 bucks.
It wasn't the best actress or the best supporting actor awards (although those two awards were pretty damn awesome too XD)
It was the fact that for that moment in time,
we knew deep in our hearts that nothing,
nothing can ever take what we have away from us.
ever.
It has been an amazing month with you people.
One hell of an awesome month.
It is hard to believe that a month earlier,
all this did not exist.
Now, i can offhandedly recite what your preference for food.
So my dearest team,
you are a miracle sent to me this semester.
Angels without wings and saints without halos.
Brothers and sisters that God forgot to give me.
Don't cry because it's over, smile because it happened.
Smile because this is not the end of the story,
Smile because it is merely the beginning of a new chapter of our friendship.
Here's to the people that made my final semester of foundation a freaking awesome one.
cheers!
Lotsa love and care,
Christine =)

dear team,
we have given it our all.
we endured the sleepless nights.
we have given it our all.
we endured the sleepless nights.
we wiped our tears and shared the laughter.
we made changes and thought of ideas.
we have come a long way.
tonight is our night.
we deserve the applause and recognition of our hardwork.
you guys are the most awesome people i have worked with.
whatever happens,
we are already champions in my terms.
Let's just let it all out,
and Let God do the rest.
He'll give us miracles,
He always does. =)

Where there was me and you
It's funny when you find yourself
Looking from the outside
I'm standing here but all I want
Is to be over there
Why did I let myself believe
Miracles could happen
Cause now I have to pretend
That I don't really care
I thought you were my fairytale
A dream when I'm not sleeping
A wish upon a star
That's coming true
But everybody else could tell
That I confused my feelings with the truth
When there was me and you
I swore I knew the melody
That I heard you singing
And when you smiled
You made me feel
Like I could sing along
But then you went and changed the words
Now my heart is empty
I'm only left with used-to-be's
And once upon a song
Now I know you're not a fairytale
And dreams were meant for sleeping
And wishes on a star
Just don't come true
Cause now even I can tell
That I confused my feelings with the truth
Because I liked the view
When there was me and you
I can't believe that
I could be so blind
It's like you were floating
While I was falling
And I didn't mind
Cause I liked the view
Thought you felt it too
When there was me and you
Looking from the outside
I'm standing here but all I want
Is to be over there
Why did I let myself believe
Miracles could happen
Cause now I have to pretend
That I don't really care
I thought you were my fairytale
A dream when I'm not sleeping
A wish upon a star
That's coming true
But everybody else could tell
That I confused my feelings with the truth
When there was me and you
I swore I knew the melody
That I heard you singing
And when you smiled
You made me feel
Like I could sing along
But then you went and changed the words
Now my heart is empty
I'm only left with used-to-be's
And once upon a song
Now I know you're not a fairytale
And dreams were meant for sleeping
And wishes on a star
Just don't come true
Cause now even I can tell

Because I liked the view
When there was me and you
I can't believe that
I could be so blind
It's like you were floating
While I was falling
And I didn't mind
Cause I liked the view
Thought you felt it too
When there was me and you
"They take pictures of mountain climbers at the top of a mountain. They’re smiling, ecstatic, triumphant. They don’t take pictures along the way cos who wants to remember the rest of it. We push ourselves because we have to, not because we like it. The relentless climb, the pain and anguish of taking it to the next level. Nobody takes pictures of that. Nobody wants to remember. We just wanna remember the view from the top. The breathtaking moment at the edge of the world. That’s what keeps us climbing. And it’s worth the pain. That’s the crazy part. It’s worth anything."
-Grey's Anatomy-
i was asked this question :
"how do you think your team did for the drama?"
sincerely
i think we're seriously awesome in a kick ass kind of way.
that's what i think.
we struggled hard against all odds.
we pushed through the insane lethargic periods.
although there were times where the word "i give up" flashed across all of our minds,
i still think we're awesome.
not because we made it to the finals.
not that the other teams aren't terribly good.
not because i feel like boasting about us.
its just because we are who we are,
and we're good at being who we are.

Found myself today
Oh I found myself and ran away
Something pulled me back
The voice of reason I forgot I had
All I know is you're not here to say
What you always used to say
But it's written in the sky tonight
So I won't give up
No I won't break down
Sooner than it seems life turns around
And I will be strong
Even if it all goes wrong
When I'm standing in the dark I'll still believe
Someone's watching over me
Seen that ray of light
And it's shining on my destiny
Shining all the time
And I wont be afraid
To follow everywhere it's taking me
All I know is yesterday is gone
And right now I belong
To this moment to my dreams
So I won't give up
No I won't break down
Sooner than it seems life turns around
And I will be strong
Even if it all goes wrong
When I'm standing in the dark I'll still believe
Someone's watching over me
It doesn't matter what people say
And it doesn't matter how long it takes
Believe in yourself and you'll fly high
And it only matters how true you are
Be true to yourself and follow your heart
So I won't give up
No I won't break down
Sooner than it seems life turns around
And I will be strong
Even if it all goes wrong
When I'm standing in the dark I'll still believe
That I won't give up
No I won't break down
Sooner than it seems life turns around
And I will be strong
Even when it all goes wrong
When I'm standing in the dark I'll still believe
That someone's watching over
Someone's watching over
Someone's watching over me
Someone's watching over me
Oh I found myself and ran away
Something pulled me back
