everytime

Notice me, take my hand
Why are we strangers when
Our love is strong
Why carry on without me

Everytime I try to fly, I fall
Without my wings, I feel so small
I guess I need you, baby
And everytime I see you in my dreams
I see your face, it's haunting me
I guess I need you, baby

I make believe that you are here
It's the only way I see clear
What have I done
You seem to move on easy

And everytime I try to fly, I fall
Without my wings, I feel so small
I guess I need you, baby
And everytime I see you in my dreams
I see your face, you're haunting me
I guess I need you, baby

I may have made it rain
Please forgive me
My weakness caused you pain
And this song's my sorry

At night I pray
That soon your face will fade away

And everytime I try to fly, I fall
Without my wings, I feel so small
I guess I need you, baby
And everytime I see you in my dreams
I see your face, you're haunting me
I guess I need you, baby



--Britney Spears

so...

can somebody recommends a good poet to read besides John Keats?

"To Hope"

WHEN by my solitary hearth I sit,
When no fair dreams before my - mind’s eye - flit,
And the bare heath of life presents no bloom;
Sweet Hope, ethereal balm upon me shed,
And wave thy silver pinions o’er my head.

Whene’er I wander, at the fall of night,
Where woven boughs shut out the moon’s bright ray,
Should sad Despondency my musings fright,
And frown, to drive fair Cheerfulness away,
Peep with the moon-beams through the leafy roof,
And keep that fiend Despondence far aloof.

Should Disappointment, parent of Despair,
Strive for her son to seize my careless heart;
When, like a cloud, he sits upon the air,
Preparing on his spell-bound prey to dart:
Chase him away, sweet Hope, with visage bright,
And fright him as the morning frightens night!

Whene’er the fate of those I hold most dear
Tells to my fearful breast a tale of sorrow,
O bright-eyed Hope, my morbid fancy cheer;
Let me awhile thy sweetest comforts borrow:
Thy heaven-born radiance around me shed,
And wave thy silver pinions o’er my head!

Should e’er unhappy love my bosom pain,
From cruel parents, or relentless fair;
O let me think it is not quite in vain
To sigh out sonnets to the midnight air!
Sweet Hope, ethereal balm upon me shed,
And wave thy silver pinions o’er my head!

In the long vista of the years to roll,
Let me not see our country’s honour fade:
O let me see our land retain her soul,
Her pride, her freedom; and not freedom’s shade.
From thy bright eyes unusual brightness shed -
Beneath thy pinions canopy my head!

Let me not see the patriot’s high bequest,
Great Liberty! how great in plain attire!
With the base purple of a court oppress’d,
Bowing her head, and ready to expire:
But let me see thee stoop from heaven on wings
That fill the skies with silver glitterings!

And as, in sparkling majesty, a star
Gilds the bright summit of some gloomy cloud;
Brightening the half veil’d face of heaven afar:
So, when dark thoughts my boding spirit shroud,
Sweet Hope, celestial influence round me shed,
Waving thy silver pinions o’er my head.

February, 1815.


-- John Keats

Miss Dior Cherie

i am totally utterly absolutely in love with this new Miss Dior Cherie ad


saw the print ad i think on new VOGUE, and was in love with the colour,
oh did i tell you the perfume is great too :D

Dior .. can do no wrong ..
trully amazing



ps. i wanna be french!

pay it forward

Went to see Bride Wars with Miss S today.
It's hilarious and touching on some part, I actually love it. It made me cry.

Anyway, on the way to the city whilst waiting for the tram,
a lady went up to me and go "Do you have a ticket?"
To which I answered, "No."
So she gave me her ticket (which was a 2-hour), and when I asked why, she simply replied "Cause I'm going home."
Fair 'nuff.
I'm actually pleasantly surprised by this small random act of kindness (well i think it's kindness anyway, she saved me from buying a ticket cause I was stupid enough to leave my tram ticket at work).
Kindness actually still exists in this old, materialistic world.
So I promised myself pay her forward, and do small Act of Random Kindess (ARK - remember Evan Almighty).
What goes around comes around, so remember, every single deed counts: pay it forward.

i miss my long hair...

my heart and thoughts go out to the victim of the Victorian bush fire.
may every soul that was taken from us continues their journey in peace.
may every survivor is granted courage, strength and patience.
may every heart around reaches out to help.
may all rescues prevail.
may all the heroes survives.
may the Lord be with us and get us through all this pain.
amen.

for fuck sake

Kamenashi's new drama is .. just... DIE! (to put it in Rachel Zoe's words)
he wears suits allll the time.. complete with waistcoats underneath..
and you know how i feel about guys in suits...
now imagine kame in suits..
oh wait, why imagine when you can see for yourself? lol



Kamenashi + wine = my dream! lol

okay so Australian Open is back on again.
honnestly i've never been much of a tennis girl.. took me a while to get a grasp of the rules and scoring,
anyway, these past week (and half) been crazy with all these tennis players going in and out the store.
i've never seen so many (sport) stars at one go in my life before.lol
not that i know many of them tennis players... ironically.
except for Nadal and Federer.. (but who doesnt know them?)

so the other day, i told Karolina Sprem (CRO) to wait because my clients were about to make purchase,
then i served Nadia Petrova from Russia,
conversed to Filippo Volandri from ITALY and his coach: Stefano about football,
stupidly asked one of the blonde girl (possibly Russian or the nearby region) how long she's gonna be in Melbourne for (hey i wasn't sure if she was one okay!),
and met Ai Sugiyama and her boyfriend (or something similar).

interesting week it has been.
now where is Nadal?
