Stop & Stare.. (One Republic)

Posted in Music, Musings on March 31, 2008 by st3fani3

This town is colder now, I think it’s sick of us
It’s time to make our move, I’m shakin off the rust
I’ve got my heart set on anywhere but here
I’m staring down myself, counting up the years
Steady hands, just take the wheel…
And every glance is killing me
Time to make one last appeal… for the life I lead
Stop and stare
I think I’m moving but I go nowhere
Yeah I know that everyone gets scared
But I’ve become what I can’t be, oh
Stop and stare
You start to wonder why you’re ‘here’ not there
And you’d give anything to get what’s fair
But fair ain’t what you really need
Oh, can u see what I see
They’re tryin to come back, all my senses push
Un-tie the weight bags, I never thought I could…
Steady feet, don’t fail me now
Gonna run till you can’t walk
But something pulls my focus out
And I’m standing down…
Stop and stare
I think I’m moving but I go nowhere
Yeah I know that everyone gets scared
But I’ve become what I can’t be, oh
Stop and stare
You start to wonder why you’re here not there
And you’d give anything to get what’s fair
But fair ain’t what you really need
Oh, you don’t need
What u need, what u need…
Stop and stare
I think I’m moving but I go nowhere
Yeah I know that everyone gets scared
But I’ve become what I can’t be
Oh, do u see what I see…

n.

  1. A light soft thin fabric of silk, cotton, wool, or another fiber, with a crinkled surface. Also called crape.
  2. See crape (sense 2).
  3. Crepe paper.
  4. Crepe rubber.
  5. (also krĕp) A very thin small pancake, often stuffed and rolled up.

Anyway, Friday was really interesting and fulfilling (tummy-wise) I and AL went to Crepe A Croissant :)

The food there was so crepe-licios :)

12 years ago :

She was just about 6 years old, running to her mum and says ” Mummmy, the sun is looking at me” Hides her eyes from the sunshine.

And now, she still does not like too bright sunshine directly at her eyes :D

Indecisiveness & No worries

” If you wanna be somebody you better wake up” Dr. PC

I just realized, my calendar for the easter holidays are so inconsistent and indecisive.

Scribbles here and there, and so disorganized. Man, motivation needed. Should i study from 1.1 – 1.9 consecutively or a mixture of 1.1,2.2 etc. ARGH

I’m bad at making decisions, orange bag or red bag, panini or toastie, chicken bake or steak bake

Girl, wake up you cant have both things all the time! :)

And presenting, an all time favourite disney classic : hakuna matata

Today was an interesting day, woke up as usual and went to uni – SL, pick up the daily metro on the bus and read about the local news. Reached uni, and went to the SL and worked on PBL 1.6, immunity………………………………AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH and Malaria Moskisstoo :) Mosquito.

Phone buzzzed :

” Hi Stefanie! where are you” HK

“M on my way there, fancy a cup of tea, Its my day off today, so i feel like celebrating”

I went to meet HK at Iceland and then we walked down byres road, and went to look for food and drink. Baguette express and Stefanie ate a Panini, It was good but it seemed torturous to see the bread being squashed by the big pans lol. PANINI

Starbucks-logo

then we headed to starbux, the place of COFFEEEEEEEEEEEE and my lovely Java Chip. It was ages since i been to a starbux, first time here in Glasgow UK. Hana bought a Cinamon Ice blended it was so good :) and we got frost teeth bite. Funny though, the cream was sweet i prefer non sweetened cream.

Waste Not, Want Not, Cook Less

Posted in Uncategorized on March 17, 2008 by st3fani3

What do you do when u see a 3/4 full pot of spaghetti going down the drain and being disposed off?

Im not complaining, is just that food here at WH goes to the bin if it is not eaten, there are second helpings and all but they should let us ta pau some food for tomorrow lunch or at least donate it to a home or something, it should not be wasted and ending up in the drain pipes.

Of potatoes and songs, my potato song :

Seconds anyone?

Posted in Musings on March 16, 2008 by st3fani3

Now, food at WH seems so plentiful and alot left, that the canteen ladies are now calling ” third helpings anyone” Oh boy, am sure going to get fat over easter. More gym for me,

As the coming week will be a quietened down week, the last week of Lent, Holy Thursday, Good Friday, Holy Saturday and Easter

HAVE THINE OWN WAY, LORD
1. Have thine own way, Lord! Have thine own way!
Thou art the Potter, I am the clay.
Mold me and make me after Thy will,
While I am waiting, yielded and still.
2. Have thine own way, Lord! Have thine own way!
Search me and try me, Savior today!
Wash me just now Lord, wash me just now,
as in thy presence humbly I bow.
3. Have thine own way, Lord! Have thine own way!
Wounded and weary, help me I pray!
Power, all power, surely is thine!
Touch me and heal me, Savior divine!
4. Have thine own way, Lord! Have thine own way!
Hold o’er my being absolute sway.
Fill with thy Spirit till all shall see
Christ only, always, living in me!

Stefanie Things to Do list ( Over the easter holidays)

1. Revision Block 1 PBLs to Block 6 PBLs ( A must)!

2. More prayful

3. Keep in touch with my friends back home and family too

4. eat less chocolate ( i have seen grotesque pictures of gangrene etc etc due to diabetes, to me that is scary and the worst disease)

5. Gym more ( Try running on the treadmill and a fast sprint)

Memories

I think it was because of a back injury in primary 4 or was it primary 5 i could not take part in PE and was kind of discovered after some aerobics role on the mat thingy. was rolling i think. which made me a book worm person, It was those heavy bags and i remembered i went to the chinese doctor for my back pain and i did had a sling or something. and a herbal patch stuck on my lumbar part of my spine ( which was smelly) So i earned PJ marks, by making scrap books lol. And back then, went to the chiropractor on a weekly basis, no bowling and no golf. so thats why i always turn down bowling till now, strengthening my spine by doing back muscles ( which i learnt from in gym during college time).

I miss being a prefect, secretary in SMKDJ and being with my classmates.. i miss school..! and still remember the moment when me and mayshi got our SPM results at the corridor where the staffroom was. So clearly!!!

school was a time of fun, embarassing moments,  but all mistakes are to be learnt from :)

Cat 007 Kittens to Cats 009

Snowie, found in the garage who was a small tiny undernourished kitten, which i looked after for , i miss you the way she used to visit me in the kitchen during meal times and brush against me. the brown eyes.

i miss my cats, cornflakes and patches, i miss them and it was freaking unfair they had to go to kitty heaven, i mean seriously, justice! patches knocked down by a car and cornflakes by an automatic gate. Streaks and Ginger put in a home that is so unfair. ( and it was not my doing) and i still think that life is unfair.

RYM and everyone i miss you all, CK and everyone so much. I miss the cell groups and eveything all the outings and activities we had together. Miss the times i was Youth @ Mamak leader. where organizing activities and the one to the FRIM ROX!
