October

Bulan baru- rotation baru. Mood baru, kesibukan baru. Semua pun baru. Motivation still same old-same old. Haih~

Tak sanggup lagi aku
Mengenang kisah lalu
Keganasan menghantui diriku
Biarkan ia pergi
Menjadi suatu misteri
Bagaikan tiada hati yang peduli
Tidak mahu ku ingat lagi
Apa yang telah terjadi
Tragedi Oktober
Sesalan aku hanya untukmu sayang
Ampunilah segala dosa-dosaku
Tidak sengaja aku mengasari dirimu
Bagiku kau bukanlah lawanku
Kekasihku...
Hanya satu ku pinta
Kujujuran darimu
Berilah peluang hidupmu
Aku rela bersama
Meranjau onak duka
Agar berkekalan hendaknya

Lagu ni popular masa darjah 5. Tiap kali Oktober dtg,mesti lagu ni jadi siulan.

Also I like this song-by U2:

October
And the trees are stripped bare
Of all they wear
What do I care
October
And kingdoms rise
And kingdoms fall
But you go on

October also is the most imporant month for politicians- those in US and Aetearoa.
Especially for Helen Clark's team and John Key's team- this is the month that they need to sell all the new policies, before the election; 8th Nov 08.

ps: Obviously, our politics are much more interesting then theirs =p

Current PM - Helen Clark from Labour

'1% Kiwi Saver and Tax' man - Mr. John Key from National

What I Like About You 3

As many people having such unhappy days recently, maybe this ad could help to lift you up!

Smile though your heart is aching;
Smile even though it's breaking.
When there are clouds in the sky, you'll get by.
If you smile through your fear and sorrow,
Smile and maybe tomorrow,
You'll see the sun come shining through for you.

Light up your face with gladness,
Hide every trace of sadness.
Although a tear may be ever so near,
That's the time you must keep on trying,
Smile, what's the use of crying?
You'll find that life is still worthwhile,
If you just smile.

Lyrics by John Turner and Geoffrey Parsons.
Music written by Charlie Chaplin, 1936.

This song is quite famous.If you google this, you can find many versions sung by big names like MJackson, Nat King Cole, Barbara Streisand, Robert Downey Jr and my fav of all, Josh Gorban.

p.s: of course this is one of the collection of NZ ad. This one is for AMI insurance =)

What I Like About You 2

Another nice ad I've seen in TV. Not quite sure whether this is only local or worlwide.And this ad won the best ad of the year 2008. Im not 100% agree with the Kiwis. Come on, there's more than this monkey bussiness!

What I Like About You

WILAY is one of my favourite series. Amanda Bynes is one of the main actress in that sitcom. And I think Val in that story is similar if not the same as myself...hehehhe...and Im hoping one day I'll have my own version of Vic...hahahha...

Enough with Lalaland, feet right back on the ground!

As we are counting days (we becoz it's not only me who does it =p ) to 'sayonara-ing' Aotearoa, these are a few things that I will be missing soon about this little land.

1. I really like ads here. They are funny, yet meaningful. Some ads I cant really understand at all, then I have to ask Melor.She is really good at interpreting tv's ads.

2. Having a fresh milk for my morning coffee. Fresh milk seems so luxurious back home. Here, it is necessity.Well it's true what the ad said about NZ - beribu juta lembu! (I have proved you the power of ad!)
3. The air is very fresh!I used to walk along Lambton Quay every morning. Lambton Quay is quite a full on area, it's in the heart of Wellington CBD. Yet, you can still feel the freshness of the breeze, even at 1 o'clock in the afternoon!


4. It's really safe to cross roads here. It's because they make full use of the zebra crossing and traffic lights. As simple as that!
That's all I can think of at the mo. Im not stimulated to brainstorming at present. Well, here's one of the cool ads from Aotearoa.
