Who am I to judge??

For some funny reasons, I think there certain seasons / phases when you realised that suddenly, everyone around you is getting attached.... OR married... OR breaking up...

This period seems to be this phase.... ppl around me are going through some experience of sorts... And I've been talking to some of them....

And I can't help it but formulate some impression of sorts about them... when I know I shouldn't... They are confiding in me knowing that they can trust me... and in retrospect, I'm now asking myself who am I to do that? To formulate impressions, to pass judgements about them even if it's within me. Human err and so do I... one should never pass judgement until I have an absolutely clear picture of what's happening... until I have a complete outline of the nooks and crannies of both sides of the coin. I wouldn't like people doing that about me as well... Saw this statement in the newspaper by one of the celebrity recently. She said "Don't say you hate me when you don't know me." Guess she's right...

Oh well.. what am I doing contemplating about stuff like these in the middle of the night? Time to get to bed...
Work's getting fast paced though I still feel stuck at snail's pace... Time to buck up Zennie!

Here comes the rain again...

Falling on my head like a memory...
Falling on my head like a new emotion...

For God knows what reason, as per gazillion other times of having songs stuck in my head the whole day, this song has been stuck in my head for a good half of today. Can't wait to get it out of my head by sleeping it off...

Anyway, my Nano's here! I'm a happieeeee girl... hehe... But my colleagues accused me under utilising it. I need more MP3s!! Can't wait for Ran to pass me his external HDD... Am expecting a store of jewels... Heh...

Felt the need to revamp my life today. Need to add in more activities such as swimming, blading etc. Can't help but feeling that time passes real quickly and in a blink of an eye, the weekend's over. I don't wanna live the later half of my life regretting things that I've done, or worse, that I've failed to do.

Am off to bed now... Looking forward to a brand new day ahead with tonnes of challenges, plus yummi-licious smelling Lavender tea that I bought at Market Place today!

Music... the soul of language?

Am eagerly awaiting the arrival of my ipod nano! Rob ordered it online for me and I chose to have that inscripted on my black nano for free!!!

Nothing but the truth to me, music is the soul of language in many ways. Many a time, melodies and tunes bring out the essence in words and the meaning of the lyrics. Imagine having lyrics from a certain song, accompanying another tune and you get a different feel completely. Try lyrics of "Hotel California" to the tune of "Bridge over troubled water"....

In anycase, met Gerald for dinner today... and after that dropped by church to visit the 'new' RCIA music ministry. It was the first time in a few months that I stepped into Holy Spirit. Sitting there listening to the short practice (cuz Gerald skipped practice to go for dinner with me and by the time we went there, they were at their last couple of songs), I can't help but miss singing hymns and all....

On one hand... music has the power to lift my spirits, on the other, it could easily throw me into the pits of depression... perhaps depression is too strong a word to use but you get what I mean... It's like the minute I hear "Wake me up when September ends", I turn all gooey and stuff.... yet I simply love that song.... urgh....

Anyway, looking forward to nano~! Yippeeeeee.....
