Hey,
Thanks for the lovely dinner, not to mention companionship, on Saturday night. I'm glad you had a good time, May! In about 2hours, you'll be 17!!! Join the club man. 17 is actually quite a nice age to be. Haha, I'm not in a hurry to turn 18... seems so grown-up.

I realise that we would all be a lot happier if we understood that there's so much to be grateful for. I guess I have to say I"m disappointed at not getting what I wanted and knowing the reasons... it's just so unreasonable that it's maddening. BUT I suppose this is the kind of time when I should think about all the other blessings and opportunities I've been given. And if I do attempt to count them, they are really really numerous. Uncountable, you could say. SO, i'll like to suggest that every once a week, perhaps we could include an entry on someone, something in our lives that we can be thankful for. I'm sure if we search, even the bad weeks do have moments we can be grateful for, right? May did say that this can get depressing. So why don't we spend some time giving thanks as well? Finding for things to give thanks for makes us more appreciative of every thing we have. Haha, of course if a week's too regular then it's up to you la. The idea is to make us more grateful... it's isn't a duty or anything. What do you people think?

I'm thankful for my friends. For the good times and the bad times, we're in the same boat.

HAPPY 17TH BIRTHDAY, MAY!




this time what I want is you
there is no one else
who can take your place
this time you burn me with your eyes
you see past all the lies
you take it all away
I've seen it all
and it's never enough
it keeps leaving me
needing you

take me away
take me away
I've got nothing left to say
just take me away

I try to make my way to you
but still I feel so lost
I don't know what else I can do
I've seen it all
and it's never enough
it keeps leaving me
needing you
take me away
take me away

I've got nothing left to say
just take me away
don't give up on me
yet don't forget who I am
I know I'm not there yet
but don't let me stay here alone

this time what I want is you
there is no one else who can take your place
I've seen enough
and it's never enough
it keeps leaving me needing you

take me away
take me away
I've got nothing left to say
just take me away
take me away
take me away
I've got nothing left to say
just take me away

-Take Me Away, Lifehouse
