If I Die Young lyrics by The Band Perry

If I Die Young lyrics by The Band Perry
If I die young, bury me in satin
Lay me down on a bed of roses
Sink me in the river at dawn
Send me away with the words of a love song

Lord make me a rainbow, I'll shine down on my mother
She'll know I'm safe with you when she stands under my colors
Oh, and life ain't always what you think it ought to be, no
Ain't even gray, but she buries her baby

The sharp knife of a short life
Well, I've had just enough time

If I die young, bury me in satin
Lay me down on a bed of roses
Sink me in the river at dawn
Send me away with the words of a love song

The sharp knife of a short life
Well, I've had just enough time

And I'll be wearing white when I come into your kingdom
I'm as green as the ring on my little cold finger
I've never known the loving of a man
But it sure felt nice when he was holding my hand

There's a boy here in town, says he'll love me forever
Who would have thought forever could be severed by
The sharp knife of a short life
Well, I've had just enough time

So put on your best, boys, and I'll wear my pearls
What I never did is done

A penny for my thoughts, oh no, I'll sell 'em for a dollar
They're worth so much more after I'm a goner
And maybe then you'll hear the words I been singing
Funny, when you're dead how people start listening

If I die young, bury me in satin
Lay me down on a bed of roses
Sink me in the river at dawn
Send me away with the words of a love song

The ballad of a dove
Go with peace and love
Gather up your tears, keep 'em in your pocket
Save them for a time when you're really gonna need them, oh

The sharp knife of a short life
Well, I've had just enough time
So put on your best, boys
And I'll wear my pearls

Merry Christmas 2012 !

Hi All, Merry Christmas to all!
Did you have a great time partying ? =)

My celebration started at Wild Honey. All day breakfast.



Then Jack Reacher, entertained me for that evening..



Great Movie..!

On Christmas Eve, it was a half day at work. (or rather 3 hours off work.)
One colleague gave out a Christmas cookie when i reach office.. Nicely baked..



And there it is, the Christmas Lunch by the company...



Best part of the lunch, i won a Chocolate hamper during the lucky draw at lunch !!
(YEAH!)



The earpiece, which was my wish list for the company gift exchange.



This burning candle and aromatic oil with potpourri (Is this the right description?), was given by my boss.



Then was the friends gathering at night. Food, and catching up, plus the gift exchange..

With our christmas gift under the christmas tree.. HAHA!



And, i got a bottle of wine, YEAH~



How was your Christmas celebration? = )

Another new method to prevent cancer ??

It seems scientists discovered another new method to prevent cancer......

It is squeezing of the breasts.

HUH !! My eyes opened wide, when i saw the header of this article.

The article mentioned that Experiments found that physical pressure led cells back to normal growth patterns, and that even after compression was no longer applied, the malignant cells stopped growing.
And therefore can prevent cancer.

So those with lovers, wife, you know what to do.



Or, I can volunteer to help to squeeze..!

HAHA!!

Full of Shit

That day, while having lunch, one of our lunch khaki had bird shit falling on her arm.

"Eeeee...." she shouted. And grabbing tons of tissue paper to clean it.


We had a good laugh that day.

* * * * * * * *

Sorry to laugh at her.
Last evening when i was on my way home after work, i encountered the same situation.

I was traveling up the escalator to take the public bus home.. when i reached the platform, "some liquid" fall onto my hair. (I felt it but then thought it was rain, as it was raining.. but i forgot the platform area was sheltered.)

I ignored, and continue walking.

Suddenly ! I saw the right of my polo tee, there is this whitish, plus a bit of yellowish substance...

Oh no! It's bird shit !!!!
Laugh at me, i actually took some and smell it. (To double confirm.)

I rushed to the nearest toilet to clean it up.

My first time.
I wonder how many people saw this.......



I must really shout, HUAT ah !! (My favorite word to use.)
Huat (pronounced as Huat), is the hokkien language for prosperous. 

A day full of shit.
At work, and on my head.

HUAT ah !

The next movie i want to watch.

Over the weekends, i caught a movie.

It was "Life of Pi", directed by Ang Lee (李安).



Pi (Read as pie) is the mathematical number π, which is approximately equal to 3.14159.( Rounded to 3.142.)
However the movie has nothing to do with maths, but more to surviving in a very tough situation of a kid surviving a tragic disaster at sea, with a tiger.

A great movie, whereby you can see a lot of beautiful animals !! =)

The next movie i want to watch would be : Jackie Chan's Chinese Zodiac ( 十二生肖 ) !!



Let's see him do Magic, again !

Hello December !

Hello December !

The topic now is are we going to die on the 21 of this month ?
We discussed it during lunch time.
The Mayan calendar is set to end on Dec 21, 2012.

There is even a website for this date.... ?



Whatever it is, i already paid my credit card and mobile bills.. i thought of not paying it, but then if i survive this date, i will be penalized for  paying late. Dilemma.

We survive or not, i love you, all my friends, all who know me !!!

I will schedule a post on 22 Dec 2012. If it gets through, and you can see, please drop me a comment okok?
Meanwhile, we enjoy music, ok?
Be Cool, take good care!!

Twilight Breaking Dawn

Sunday, i went to watch this movie.

Lucky for me, it was 3rd row from the back.
(Other cinemas mostly full.)



I was not the hardcore fan of this.. but then overall, it was not bad.
But then i think the girls should be having their saliva all over the cinema floor.... =P


Just for laugh, I think it is funny to share. Someone posted this on Twitter.

Twilight, the Asian interpretation. (Hehe!)

Getting grumpy ?

As i age, i realized i am getting grumpy.

Scenario 1.

Last Friday at a Japanese restaurant, after dinner and i was queuing up to make payment.
There was only one counter, the queue was long.

There was supposed to be a receipt of list of items i ordered. I did not get it.
"I will quote the table number.." i thought to myself..

There was already about 3 people queuing in front of me.

Holding my credit card in my hand, finally it was my turn, and yes, i quoted the guy my table number. He generated the bills.
As i was going through the items, the guy grabbed my card from my hand. (He must be very desperate for my payment.)

My mind went -__-''

He thank me in the end, but my reply to him was : " Next time, dont grab people's card away like that. "And, walked off.

Scenario 2.

Seated at a table, while going through the menu, the waitress approached and check with us if we can change the to another table. (The incoming team was of 8 people.)
Being nice, we agreed.

But, so much for being nice.
Seat was being shifted to the most corner of the dessert place, and the air con was blasting onto me.
Best part of all, no one bothered to take my order, i had to walk to the counter to do so.

The next irrirated thing was, the same waitress who requested me to change seat, ask me to go back and prepare the money to pay. (Huh? I have not even eaten, and you asking me to pay??)

Feeling irritated.

I paid my $8.30 bill, with a $5 note, and the rest in coins. (Bleh!!)

Am i becoming more and more grumpy ?



Or i am just bad ??

Singapore Zoo's polar bear Sheba

The article stated : Singapore Zoo's polar bear Sheba dies at age 35.

No wonder i did not see it at my recent visit to the zoo.

I think most of us can remember that polar bear, whom we all know, and would be so excited to see it when we visit the zoo.
Its tough to see a polar bear, in topical Singapore.

I love watching the polar bear, swimming around.

So sad.

Will the zoo, make a theme out of her like Ah Meng too?

R. I. P. Sheba

Nice songs heard, recently.

Been to KTV few days back with my ex colleagues.
It was also a birthday gathering for two November babies.

Some one sang this song.
 
Wanting 曲婉婷 - 我的歌声里 (You Exist In My Song)



Later i realized she is a Chinese born Vancouver based International singer/song writer. (From her Twitter Profile.)

Her voice reminded me of Adele.



But still, i enjoy both their singing. Do you? =)
