Romeo save me, I’ve been feeling so alone

Love Story

We were both young. When I first saw you
I close my eyes, And the flashback starts
I’m standing there, On a balcony in summer air
See the lights, see the party, the ball gowns
See you make your way through the crowd
And say hello, Little did I know

That you were Romeo
You were throwing pebbles
And my daddy said stay away from Juliet
And I was crying on the staircase
Begging you please don’t go

And I said
Romeo, take me
Somewhere we can be alone
I’ll be waiting, All there’s left to do is run
You’ll be the prince and I’ll be the princess
It’s a love story, baby, just say yes

So I sneak out to the garden to see you
We keep quiet ‘cause we’re dead if they knew
So close your eyes, Escape this town for a little while

‘Cause you were Romeo, I was a scarlet letter
And my daddy said stay away from Juliet
But you were everything to me
I was begging you please don’t go

And I said
Romeo, take me
Somewhere we can be alone
I’ll be waiting, All there’s left to do is run
You’ll be the prince and I’ll be the princess
It’s a love story, baby, just say yes

Romeo, save me, they’re trying to tell me how to feel
This love is difficult, But it’s real
Don’t be afraid, We’ll make it out of this mess
It’s a love story, baby, just say yes

I got tired of waiting
Wondering if you were ever coming around
My faith in you was fading
When I met you on the outskirts of town

And I said
Romeo save me
I’ve been feeling so alone
I keep waiting for you but you never come
Is this in my head, I don’t know what to think
He knelt to the ground, And pulled out a ring
And said

Marry me, Juliet
You’ll never have to be alone
I love you and that’s all I really know
I talked to your dad, go pick out a white dress
It’s a love story, baby, just say yes

Cause we were both young, When I first saw you



Never knew the lyric till my 10 year old niece requested for this song sang by Taylor Swift during our Karaoke session sometime back.

Today, again I saw it on Astro, the lyric caught me as it did before. Got me thinking, so easy and simple huh…. To fall in love when you were young.

Will my Romeo save me and knelt to the ground, pulled out a ring and said “Marry me, Juliet; you’ll never have to be alone, I love you and that’s all I really know”.

6 days weekend

It was Zali’s “bird day” and the joke was on dear Bahija. Hehhehee…. I still burst out laughing by just thinking about it.




Nothing unusual, we had Zali’s bird day lunch just before Chinese New Year holiday, we figure it’s a good time to catch up and listen to Bahija’s juicy story from Isketambola (Istanbul).

Our lunch was at Bubba Gump The Curve. I arrived first as Andrea have to fetch Zali from his office (Yeah! Lucky Andrea get to work from home, all to our envy lar ofcoz!). Bahija reached much later as she can only leave office at 1pm. Everything works out fine since we can spare more time (longer lunch hour) as most people are on holiday mood (thus hardly working in the office).

We ordered our lunch, Zali ordered some fancy lunch which looked like “masak pindang” (Andrea have another name for this, just can't seem to remember) and I personally thought it tasted so-so… Oh well! At least we tried (and won’t order the same dish again). My lunch was “Trash” from the sea and Andrea called for something safer - salad & calamari (you can never go wrong with these!). By the way, there’s a Lingam chilli source in Bubba Gump, whatever happen to Heinz ketchup…. But it was funny as I kept saying “Where’s my keropok lekor!”, HAHHAHHAHA….

OK! Enough with the crap. Everything went ok till Bahija arrives. We were “interrogating” her on her jet-setting “ability”, I mean… she was travel ie holidaying almost every month… WOW! That’s like… ok! Am basically speechless here....

We start with her Isketambola holiday, she said it was fantastic, she bought a carpet which is “cheap” to her (apa nak kata, she’s rich lar kan! Hehhehee...). We then found it weird, where did she gets ALLLLLLLLL her leaves (AL). She said she took 4 days leaves, but the other 6 days was on weekend.

Hemmm….. My understanding is that :

1. Every weekend consist of Saturday & Sunday ie 2 days (right!?!? I know my math might not be the best but I am sure I can count up to 2 lar)
2. Meaning she either starts on Tuesday or ends on Thursday
3. Which means…. She only work 1 day in a week.

THAT’S IT! ALL of us wanted to know which company she is working for? How to apply? And anymore vacancies?


Can you believe some people’s luck!

The 3 travelbesties... (photo tag)

Recently I received a photo tag from Under Lock and Key, thought that it’ll be cool to join in the fun (so that my blog won’t be just about my trip - well…. kinda).
:P


Anyway, the rules of this tag are:
1. Open your 1st Photo folder.
2. Scroll to the 10th photo.
3. Post the photo and the story behind it.
4. Tag 5 or more people.

After careful thought and thinking of how best to cheat (INCASE my the pics turn out UGGGGGGLLLLYYYYYY), I am confident it will fall under my personal screen saver album of which I will; one way or another look AT LEAST presentable (phew!).

I opened the album, moved my cursor and counting at the same time… from left to right (naturally). Tah dah.. It falls under my Louvre & me pic… hemmm….doesn’t sound interesting to blog (susah lor like this). I read the rules again… AH-HAH! Since it doesn’t say to move the cursor right to left nor left to right nor top to bottom etc etc etc….. I smartly thought of doing JUST that ie move my cursor TOP to BOTTOM. YEAY! It landed on a pic and it is not just about MOI. Which means, better story to tell…. (as you can see, choosing pic alone took 2 whole paragraph to story mory!).

The 3 travelbesties…

This cool pics (well to us at least) was taken during our Jogjakarta trip (Yeah! Yeah! You can click on Jogja and it will redirect you to my Jogja blog) to see the magnificent Borobudur (YUP! UNESCO site. AGAIN). Our travel agent Lengga was very kind since I (as usual ie the ONE ALWAYS with WEIRD request) “highly” ie "insist-ly" requested to sight see Parangtritis (upon cousin’s recommendation) and YES! The view DID NOT DISAPPOINT us (unfortunately am not allowed to post more then one pics base on the rule lor. Lily SHALL FOLLOW RULE).

This pic was taken after the long horse ride along the beach. The coconut drink was certainly refreshing. Anna, Fatin & me togetherness pic, and if I'm not mistaken; that’s our 2nd coconut drink.

By the way, you will see the same folks in most of my pics by now… ofcos they’re my travelbestie - Anna, Andrea, Grace and Fatin the sista (in no particular order, nanti ada yang merajuk pulak kan kan kan… hehhehee….). Hopefully joining the gang - Kim, Rad & Esther (Come on guys! GURL POWER!).

Do go to my Jogja blog for more storytelling.

Parangtritis Beach Myth
Legends of Ratu Kidul or Nyai Loro Kidul and her tragic, demise abound…… Ratu Kidul's favourite color is a special shade of pale yellow-green known as gadung melati. Local folklore warns visitors not to wear the colour green, or the Queen will entice the wearer into the ocean to drown. And that is why you will rarely see anyone wearing green near the beach. If you happen to be in the wrong place at the wrong time, Ratu Kidul or her one of her ministers, may just claim you as another subject in her underwater court. Hyperlink credits - read more…
