2012: The Hamster Goes Thru Another Wheel

And so another year has past.
Ever since the wedding life has been bliss.

Prior to my long discourse about life;

Happy Mouse Day Mousie!!~

Life has been wonderful with you.
You are my playmate, spouse, hamster, babu,
darling, baby, ex-girlfriend, mouse
and most importantly, my soulmate

Its been a wonderful 5 years 8 months with you
and many more to come.
May God bless our paths together all the days of our lives!

2011 recap since May (or the last post)
Wedding. Tonnes of fun with the helpers
Wish some people were there but alas.
Had a blast with those that did,
and hope they had as much fun as we did.
June: Back to work and realised;
i was away from work for at least 64 friggin days.

Surgery to Knee. Surgery for Appendix.
10 days MC.
21 Days annual leave.

You get the drift. Created my own bonus somewhat.
God is good.
Wonderful friends to tide thru June.
Went fishing.
July came and went. Another year younger and older.
Music lessons.
Cajon Lessons.
Inspirations.
Phuket Trip in August with A.Lee, Tan, Jessica, Agnes.
And the Mouse~
Date nights.
September and October flew by.
Cutting back on drinks.
Austerity measures.
KTV. Desmond n Jinx.
Movie craze for 那些年我們一起追的女孩
Book craze for 九把刀 books.
becoming a story teller for the mouse.
Then vocal lesson (s) together.
Novemeber and December flew faster.
Church. Christmas. Candlelight.
Then the new year.
And then suddenly the decision to join the OCBC.
We must be magnets.
first there was 2. then Ms She. Then Terry. Shawn.
Eileen. Adrian. and then some.

Made new friends, or the hamsters old friends from pri school.
And life today.

The story is jumbled. but it goes on.
Just like life.
Jumbled together with a mouse results in
flying bedding and tossed bones.
And two happy furry pets for the year 2012 to come.

Resolutions are made, and prayerfully kept.
Savings. Honeymoon. More love.

Peace Out~!

A New Mouse

The old one and me didn't 'click' anymore.

Quips from this election

I know that if i set up a new opposition party, the Joker's Party, it wouldn't take off.
Firstly, they would boot me out of parliament for being a stand-up comedian refusing to sit down.
Secondly, we laugh at everything, serious or not.
Lastly, politicians, just can't laugh. Just look at the old man.

Of Wedding Preparations and then some more

its not a bed of roses.
then again, nothing is.

but i'm thankful there's a full time mouse on the helm.

i think we're both edgy.

but i think it will blow over.
i can empathize now with those that came into office.
a lil teary eyed and very grouchy.

its just irrinoying that from a simple wedding.
its abit more complicated thanks to great ideas.

but do it once and do it good.
cuz its too tough to do again.
___________________________________

wedding rehearsals was good.
though a tad tiring.
finding keys.
hearing the piano.
a chicken and a songstress.
more weird ideas.
thankfully.
everything was resolved.
and i am kinda looking forward.
to the coming.
and the going. of. the.
wedding.
___________________________________

finding songs.
inviting people.
the ever-morphing guest list.
absent-mindedness.
(i must be losing my brains lately)
gate crashing.
brother gatherings and getting smashed on crutches.
elections gatherings.
the weather must be PAPs fault.
sounding like a singaporean.
listening to acoustic music now.
im running off topic.

Election Fever: Polling Day ish Today

Its that time in 5 years.
Where our votes are presumed to make a difference.

Statistically, even if all the opposition wins,
they still can't form a majority.

but they sure can hell make some noise for the betterment
of our lives.

do we believe, or do we think otherwise.

Baby Boomers, Gen X, Gen Y.

SDP, WP, RP, SDA etc.

If the WP was everywhere, it might have been easier.

Reflections

Sitting here at my desk with abit of the runs now.
Looking at a lil mouse sleep contentedly.
Simple pleasures remind me everyday that its the
little things we live for and not those huge moments.
Blue skies. mouse hunts. mouse walks. mouse meals.
friends. church. family.
still mouse trails. mouse quirks. and more mousey things.
many a time, i feel that words aren't enough.
but i give thanks for the many days we have had since.
Sept 14 2005.
and everyday since that day has only gotten better.
if we do have kids, they'll learn the importance of.
tissue. for their very existence.
heh.

_____________________________________________________

its great to see Mr Wan back in SG.
its been a long time.
welcome back bro!
_____________________________________________________

i wish people find the strength to move on.
quicker than they desire.
when pain becomes a habit.
and happiness something they deem unattainable.

i pray that God is justice. and love.
and metes out to those that deserve,
and those that deserve.

"dgthedg, wise sage and retriever of ages"

Since May 15, 2006, life has never been the same;
its all been wonderful, and we'll continue
to have a squeaking good time being dorks,

I love you.

暗恋 - DT (Cover) - 31082010 neimaddamien82

Still lonely still lonely 

昨晚又再见到你 你还是那么美丽 

我紧张到话都不会说 就傻傻看着你 

渴望永远这距离 就是和你在一起 

醒来发现这一切都只是我的梦境 

告诉自己要冷静 却又无法不想你 

我的懦弱已经开始让我讨厌我自己 

是你对我有戒心 还是我没有自信 

可是谁也不能阻止我 我要暗恋你 

So lonely So here I am standing all alone 

在某个街头 有个我在这里只为你等候 

Here I am waiting just for you 

开放我所有 希望你能了解你能够接受 

So lonely 

今晚渴望再见你 虽然只是在梦想 

短暂的甜蜜也胜过了一辈子没有你 

就算没快乐结局 就算从此死了心 

我要付出我所有诚意 只要能感动你 

我愿意 

So lonely so here I am standing all alone 

在某个街头 有个我在这里只为你等候 

Here I am waiting just for you 

开放我所有 我要为你怎么做你才接受我（才接受我） 

我喜欢你（我喜欢你）我要你（我要你） 

我爱你 

So here I am standing all alone（standing all alone） 

在某个街头 有个我在这里只为你等候 

So here I am waiting just for you 

开放我所有 希望你能了解你能够接受 

I’m lonely 

故事就说到这里 就算你们再好奇 

我想说的都已说完了 其余是秘密 

在那某一个街头 会流传某个旋律 

那是我在轻轻唱着歌 我多爱你Janine 

Of Ice Cream & More Ice Cream

Its official, me and chris are ice cream junkies.

First Udders, then:





















Oreos and Cream FTW~!!

CG Outing 29082010 Oasis & Udders~

Before the post starts proper:
Congrats to the SOT grads, they've done something
that i've been thinking of, just thinking of, for a long time.

So its another CG outing, or most of it.
Chris, Chris Bro, Jacky, yrreT, Kenneth, Jael, Esther, Agnes.
And the guest appearance of Robin, the dentist friend.

We went to Oasis for dinner.
The chef must have been crying very badly at the point
of time when he/she was cooking our food.
we also speculated the price of salt crashed overnight
on the commodities market.
nuff said about the taste of the food which was a tad disappointing
since its never happened before.

THEN, we headed to Udders Ice Cream @ Siglap.
We also note a few poltergeists that were around.


though not being physically there.
but they're loved nonetheless haha

Firstly, lets talk about the crowd:


actually, the word "crowd" does not suffice to
describe the multitudes of people squeezing into
that small space.
but i guess the stat board did get it right by
realizing we do have one of the highest
population densities in the world >o<



The cookies and cream was really nice,
the Tiramisu ice cream, unless you want to get high from ice cream.
its totally laden with alcohol. can't taste the tira from the misu.
and makes "i" wanna "scream" gahh~
not bad for a forfeit penalty to punk your friends with though.

So the evening went well, with lots of banter.
Though the place was too cramped for my liking.
Agnes's "please please pleaseeee" will never be forgotten, hahahhaa.
The really nice boy waiter.
Fervent exchange of flavors.
A colored shirt.
A colored blackboard.
An incessant craving for cider (perhaps only me...)
and before we knew it, it was 1130pm and time to go.

Here's the rest of the pics:









The End~!

True Love

You know it's true love when you can test one another's morning breath and agree which is worse.

Aftershock 唐山大地震

When an earthquake hits Tangshan in the Hebei Province, China, in 1976 at about 3:30 in the morning, a married couple is ... well, they are having sex in the back of their truck, but that's not important. The couple rush home to rescue their sleeping children. When the mother attempts to run into the collapsing building the father throws her aside and rushes in and the building falls on him and kills him. The children are alive but buried beneath the rubble in such a way that saving one of them would crush the other. The mother has to make a choice. After much weeping and wringing of hands she chooses to save her son. Her daughter hears her mother make the choice. Ouch! The daughter is left for dead but miraculously survives. She's so hurt by her mother's decision she refuses to identify herself and is taken to an orphanage where she is eventually adopted by a young couple who were part of the People's Liberation Army's rescue team.

The first twenty minutes of the film are all about the earthquake and CGI. After that it becomes pure drama, spanning thirty two years, with some haphazard scenes cutting in from time to time. The young boy grows up to be a successful businessman and the young girl grows up to almost be a doctor but marries a foreigner and moves to Canada instead. The boy doesn't know his sister is alive and the girl, despite the urgings of her foster father, has no intention of reuniting with her brother, or her mother. But the film is less about them and more about the mother. She is the film's emotional centerpiece.

The mother suffers long and hard for the decision she made and for the loss of her husband. She refuses to leave Tangshan because she wants to be there when the deceased return to her. She lives in a tent for a while and moves into a modest apartment when the family home is not rebuilt. Every year she visits a ceremonial site of mourning and gives her husband and daughter directions to her new place of residence.

The film builds to a crescendo culminating in 2008 with the earthquake in Sichuan. The brother and sister both go there and join the Tangshan Rescue Team as volunteers. The film drops into a low gear and downplays the moments when they meet each other and the daughter goes home to see her mother. Then there's all this tension about who should be more sorry, the mother for her decision, or the daughter for condemning and causing her mother to suffer thirty two years for that decision.

All of the performances, except the guy who plays the daughter's foreigner husband, are top notch, especially Xu Fan (the director's real life wife) as the mother. There are all kinds of wonderful and heartbreaking scenarios touching on the nature and loyalties of family. The boy's paternal grandmother wants to take custody of him because now that her own son is dead he is her last bit of male family blood. When the boy becomes a successful businessman he wants to move his mother into a nice new apartment, partly for his own notion of her happiness and partly for not wanting to be perceived as someone who is not taking care of his mother. What loyalties and affections should the daughter have towards her foster parents when she becomes an adult? And, of course, what about the daughter's decision to not let her blood family know she survived the earthquake?

Nuff said, just watch the show.

Stay (Cover) - 27082010 neimaddamien82

I've been sitting here staring at the clock on the wall
And I've been laying here praying, praying he won't call
It's just another call from home
And you'll get it and be gone And I'll be crying
And I'll be begging you, baby Beg you not to leave
But I'll be left here waiting With my Heart on my sleeve
Oh, for the next time we'll be here
Seems like a million years And I think I'm dying
What do I have to do to make you see
He can't love you like me?
Why don't you stay
I'm down on my knees
I'm so tired of being lonely
Don't I give you what you need
When he calls you to go
There is one thing you should know
We don't have to live this way
Baby, why don't you stay
You keep telling me, baby There will come a time
When you will leave his arms And forever be in mine
But I don't think that's the truth
And I don't like being used and I'm tired of waiting
It's too much pain to have to bear
To love a girl you have to share
Why don't you stay
I'm down on my knees
I'm so tired of being lonely
Don't I give you what you need
When he calls you to go
There is one thing you should know
We don't have to live this way
Baby, why don't you stay
I can't take it any longer
But my will is getting stronger
And I think I know just what I have to do
I can't waste another minute
After all that I've put in it
I've given you my best
Why does he get the best of you
So next time you find you wanna leave his bed for mine
Why don't you stay
I'm up off my knees
I'm so tired of being lonely
You can't give me what I need
When he begs you not to go
There is one thing you should know
I don't have to live this way
Baby, why don't you stay, yeah

Remember to go to the washroom~

and so another thursday nite ends.
with Koi~ and Agnes/Esther/Jacky
and Terry/Alex/June/Mervyn/Jo/Kaixin.

To remember our first love.
and to make a conscious decision to go deeper.
into our commitments.
to redefine the turning points in our lives.
and to rededicate our lives for things eternal.

Strangely, i don't even feel the crisis.
Nothing's changed if we don't allow anything to change.
So let's stay strong and focused.
Gotta lift up my new career more, love more and pray more.

To forgive others and myself.
and to keep seeking to be sanctified.
and washed over, and over.

Thank you Lord.

Ps Terry, remember to go to the washroom. HAhahahhaha

So don't kick me. hehe.

Reservist is coming up, and Phuket.
A much needed trip imho.
We've both been so caught up with work,
since the ROM in December we haven't had proper
time for one another :)

Wheeeeeee~!!!

_____________________________________________

So many thoughts in my head all convoluted.
I'm really perturbed;
About Jack Neo. About People reacting to his news.
About societal grace, and the lack of it.

S'pore film-maker Jack Neo's press conference on Yahoo! SEA @ Yahoo! Video

The media: happily filming away at the end. Ugly.
The Tabloid papers: Gossiping til no end. Ugly.
The Shit-Stirrers: Encouraging divorce to fulfill their sense of justice. Ugly.

Vicious comments everywhere about Jack Neo's family.
Ugly.
(i honestly do not know how wishing his children
end up the same way serves as a constructive comment)

Jack Neo fools around; shame on him.
Women that throw themselves at him; shame on them.
Not like they were that young, hello??
Consenting adults anyone?
In the end, everyone will account for what they have done.
And that's not for man to judge.

I reserve my worst comments for the media.
*%&#$@^&$!*

If his wife has decided to forgive, who are
outsiders to dictate her decisions otherwise?
God gives us free will, these people act like they're
above God in their words.

I think people making noise at the sides would
love to have the same scrutiny happen to them if they
were caught with their pants down doing the same.

Thankfully there's something called forgiveness.
Which is evidently missing in tonnes of comments
made by the public.

Jack's wife is not naive. And she's far bigger a person
Than those at the sidelines.

Reconciliation vs Seperation.

The choice is obvious.
and a good way to discern character.

For those that choose the latter;
no wonder there's no end to war in the realms
of ideology and in our physical reality.

Just leave the 2 alone.

Some funny/weird comments on Yahoo!

"想了,约了,定了,见了,抱了,亲了,摸了,脱了,舔了,湿了,硬了,
进了,顶了,叫了,射了,爽了,抽了,软了,瘫了,洗了,擦了,干了,
睡了,又想了............ "
- errr.... haha okay.... next.

"Strange. Nobody forces them to hold a press
conference. He shouldn't be shouting at the reporters.
He should have expected how these reporters will behave,
since they are reporters. He need not shout at them.
From the video, they were just trying to take shots
from the best possible positions. Didn't see any one
getting in their way at all. Also, his gesture of
getting his wife to speak after he made his speech
seemed very 'planned'. Personally feel that he was
shaken because of the pressure from everyone,
from the possibility of losing his career etc.
Don't think he is at all remorseful for what he
had done, looking at his expression when he talked.
Can't feel his sincerity."
- Like he owes it to you.

"Irene Kng, You've "forgiven" your husband of
donkey years for cheating on you with 10
(possibly more) women. Are you sure that
you've forgiven him? Or you're just standing
by your man because he's filled with wealth
beyond your wildest imagination? Did he
control you to be on his side with his MONEY?
If he can control 10 other girls to bed with him,
who are you again? A trusty SPARE TYRE.
The one that never fail to go to bed with him
when 10 others or more have rejected his
advances? Let's just hope that Jack's little
brother doesn't jump out of his pants again...
in which I highly doubt so.
Do you think people will change easily? You wish. "
- Your cup must be half empty, all the time.

The Wife's Bdae: Journal Entry 2010

January 18, Monday. Leave.
Clinic.Vivo.Running all over the place looking for ATM.
free movie. Asian Kitchen. Amazing dumplings.
Even more amazing company.
And a very wonderful evening just spending time.
With one another capped off with some
Fei Fei noodles.



And so another birthday has passed!
my hamster is now 25 :)
according to scientific research
and i'm the researcher;

Specimen: Mous'eAngChristinaestes ZiweI:
This breed of hamsters
lasts a very long time as a pet and
make good partners in life to love,
to cuddle, and to hold.

lolx

assuming i live to 98
i still have another 70 more birthdays
to spend with this mouse
and i'm looking forward to everyone of them as
they come to pass.

i'm typing now with cough syrup in my body so
you know that this is true love.

i really feel, after marriage,
that the best gift.
to a loved one;
is a gift of undivided time and attention.
i.e. no TV and computer games or comic books.
but pure undivided time just to bond.
to hold. walk around the world.
converse. and just be with one another.
and you know the time spent.
will be made history etched into our minds.
every passing second we walk on this earth.
i'm thankful i have yours, and you have mine.

Thank you God for placing a hammie
so beautiful in my life.
i've celebrated all my birthdays
at once having her as my lovely wedded mouse.
Hallelujah!

Now lets work harder to feed this hungry baby.

I call it preparation to be a parent~

Dog Tales

"Mama didn't raise dumb puppies"

Hahahahahahhaha

don't even try to figure what that means ;p

Anyhow~

Avatar is a freaking good show man,



i think i'm going for a second round.

So i confess the plot is linear.
but im a sucker for happy endings.
and the characters had sufficient time for
development unlike the stoopid
"The Time Traveler's Wife".
I'm sure all that read the book agrees with me.

Not blogging for too long.

It was good outs with
Esther, Peter, JQ, Michael, Terry, Alex
Hamster & Me.

Cheerios and its a brand new week!!

And so there was Mr and Mrs Retriver Goh, 13 Dec 2009

The Movie:


The Script:JP: Do you take Ms Hammie Ang as your lovely bewedded Wife?
R: *Woof Woof!*

JP: Do you take Mr Retriever Goh as your husband?
H: *Squeak Squeak!*

And it came to pass that we are now Mr and Mrs Retriever Goh.
You can call her Mdm Ham... lolx~~

Here's the vows we declared to each other,
over the phone the night before as we couldn't sleep anyway haha.

Retriever Vow:
To my best friend Christina aka Hammie, I want you to know
that as i take your hand in marriage today, i promise
these paws of mine will always stay knitted with yours;
in both good and trying times.

They will comfort, uphold and support you, tickle and love you
as we begin another chapter of our lives together.

I promise to care & provide spiritually, emotionally and always
remain faithful to you.

My Home, is wherever we are together for with you, i can smile,
laugh, sing incessantly and truly be myself.

With God as our witness, i give you these promises today and
for the rest of the days of our lives together, i love you!

*Woof Woof*


Hammie Vow:
To my playmate Retriever and lover Damien Goh, i thank God
for our unsual meeting over a tissue paper 4 yrs back.

In you, i see my best friend who has shown me patience,
sacrifice and most importantly, unconditional love.

So this day, i pledge to you my life as the Church is to Christ;
I promise always to be your supportive and faithful loving wife.
Thru economic boom or crisis; in sinus's and pink health;
til the end of our days.

I say all this believing that Jesus Christ is in the midst of us,

I love you!

*SqueaK SqueaK!*

Ps. Calling Pa and Ma to what used to be uncle and auntie is a
weird experience. Its all Good hahahhahahhaha.

Hah! November didn't slip away

we really shouldn't be blogging.
for the sake of blogging.
but.
this is my blog ;p

so....

November is coming to an end.
and December is coming.

Its a big month you know.
and it's going to be exciting~!

November went by in this fashion:

Work. Targets. Stress.
Fever.Flu. Sinusitis.
Antibiotics. 2 rounds of it.
(Still sniffling but better.)

and

Alot of hamster loving.

Proverbials 364:4267837 says:

"Blessed is the Retriever who has a Hammie"

btw... some doctors are plain weird.
i think weird is a criteria for them to be.
on my company's panel of doctors we can see.
they'll freak you out and prevent you from seeing them.
and take less MC's from work...

anyhow

We're anxiously waiting for the hdb balloting results.
so we have a home to call our own.
and we've yet to send out the wedding invitation cards.

we need a sound system for the actual ROM event too.

anyone?

;p

anyhow, December is round the corner.
and i look forward to our lives together :)
its going to be exciting and of course
with its fair shares of ups and downs.

but if there's anyone i want to go through it all with.
its the wonderful lady He's put into my life.
nearly 4 yrs ago.
and she's my best friend, pet, lover and partner.

Ms Hammie Ang.

hahahahaha

we caught Twilight.
that's it ;p
oh i nearly forgot....
... when Jacob took off his shirt...
aunties.... never see hunk take off shirt before meh...

its weird listening to middle aged women.
gush and coo when they see a hunk take off his shirt on screen.
who says only men are visual creatures.
they're visual... and verbal too ;p

just like how my wife-to-be is asking me to have a body like his.
wtfish.....

Christmas is coming.
and its a very busy month.
this year especially.
everyone's getting married omg...
its almost like its in fashion.

then again.
we're of that age when all the apples.
start to fall off the trees in pairs.
so......

Congratulations everyone~!

May God bless every one (i mean pair) of us!

I'm sleepy now.

Good nite~!

Of Long Days and a Chorus of Very Mature Voices

As i type.
im in the Victoria concert hall.
and im tired from a days work.
and im listening to at least 50 senior citizens sing.

btw, 50 is the minimum age.

this is not a ageist post.

cuz im wondering.
when im that age.
and if my desire for singing doesn't die.

would i be there?

so now imn sleepy.
no disrespect.
but if the tone deafs would step aside.
there are really a few gems to be found.
but its like looking for a needle.
or needles in a haystack.
a cacophony of voices.
and it takes real effort to single out the better voices.

recycled singers.
recycled dancers.
recycled uniforms.
recycled moves.

still.
its a fine performance for its class.
when the dancers eyeball each other to egg.
the other into moving the same way.
due to lack of practice.

im not making sense now.
and i need to study.
help....

help........

help...................

helpppppppppppppppppppppppppp




woofing off.

(speaking in native tongues can be fun!)


p.s. my mum can sing :)

The Lucky Undie

幸福小底裤 provided the best laughs of the nite.

幸内裤........ Adrian, kudos to you for imagination.

鬼阿~！ its student's day.

cheers to the evening where "the departed"
arrived.
and we had a barrel that looked like an alien.

no long stories.
mad's great sacrifice.
straws. fried rice. never ending noodles.balls.
and the chicken wings that never materialized.

but nevertheless.
a great gathering.

to sharon.stretch.adrian.madeleine.

cheers~! Asahi-gozaimashitei~ whatever that means~

here's the pics for the night.
"i love you guys."

for the sexists;

"you gals and guys ;p"

hurrr







it was fun, and we finally heard gilbert.
for the first time.

September is running away

So this is not a post about waking up when
September comes.

Anyhow, breathing some life here is a duty
to the html that's screaming for my attention.

heh

its been an interesting month.
departures and new arrivals.
below are the photos to capture.
the one for one moments.
the random moments.
and i just want to say it has been.
a terrific time with you peeps.


Sailing, Heng, Dee


Sailing, Dee


Sailing


Ms Huo, Heng, Red



Harry was a good man, Red thinks so too.

To the good times above, another cheers!

I need to study for M5, 8, 9 , HI.
I need to register for it first.
I haven't done so.

Phooey~

Its been a ball of a time.
a rediscovered passion for working out.
for playing ball with the right shoes.
for having suppers.
des.anson.daniel.
wedding planning.
or more like ROM planning.
and new job jitters and anticipation.

trust. in Him.

Caught "The Ugly Truth" with the missus yesterday.
definitely worth more than a few laughs.

it was a proper date.
amidst the busy schedules we've had for awhile.
like quite a long long while.
heh~

all couples must date.
Tony Parson's says so.
or at least that what i inferred.

must fall in love with each other over and over.
cuz there's no other way.

its the only way.
and she's wonderful.



if i had to do it all over again right from the start.

i would.



Signing off,


Dee

P.s Im getting less crappy. Must be age.... it sucks to be 24. Bye!

l love~~

this is priceless, check Dick Lee out~

And We Were There

And as the post says it.
We were there,
when it mattered the most.

It was a first and also symbolically,
the last as 6A's landscape starts to change.
but if there's anything.

the memories linger.
and its a sweet aroma.
that carries us where we once were.
and where we are today.

so we went to Roomful.
and we were at Roomful.
and we made it good.

Thank you everyone for making it happen.
i hope you enjoyed the evening.
and may the compilation
"We Were There"
keep all of us strong,
and stronger in our everyday lives.
and also in our memories of each other.

heres the list of songs i gave you and the lyrics:





1) 有梦有朋友
夜將來臨　心靈黯淡時光
那一盞燈　最早為你點亮
當黎明時分　回首長夜漫漫
那一顆星　堅持因為你
我會變得夠堅強 陪你一晚

夢想在左手　朋友是右手　
軟弱的時候　我不會低頭
多麼幸運和你一起走

明天的天空　因為有夢有朋友
心靈的翅膀才能飛得久

夜將來臨　心靈黯淡時光
那一盞燈　最早為你點亮
當黎明時分　回首長夜漫漫
那一顆星　堅持陪你一晚

在難免有風有雨人生長路上
因為你我會變得夠堅強

夢想在左手　朋友是右手
未來才會變得有看頭
軟弱的時候　我不會低頭
多麼幸運和你一起走
有夢有朋友　有汗有笑有淚滴
都會是一生溫暖的回憶　

有夢有朋友　有笑有淚滴
將是我們溫暖的回憶



2)当你孤单你会想起谁

你的心情总在飞
什么事都要去追
想抓住一点安慰
你总是喜欢在人群中徘徊
你最害怕孤单的滋味
你的心那么脆
一碰就会碎
经不起一点风吹
你的身边总是要许多人陪
你最害怕每天的天黑
但是天总会黑
人总要离别
谁也不能永远陪谁
而孤单的滋味
谁都要面对
不只是你我
会感觉到疲惫

当你孤单你会想起谁
你想不想找个人来陪
你的快乐伤悲
只有我能体会
让我再陪你走一回

你的心情总在飞
什么事都要去追
想抓住一点安慰
你总是喜欢在人群中徘徊
你最害怕孤单的滋味
你的心那么脆
一碰就会碎
经不起一点风吹
你的身边总是要许多人陪
你最害怕每天的天黑
但是天总会黑
人总要离别
谁也不能永远陪谁,
而孤单的滋味
谁都要面对
不只是你我
会感觉到疲惫

当你孤单你会想起谁
你想不想找个人来陪
你的快乐伤悲
只有我能体会
让我再陪你走一回
当你孤单你会想起谁
你想不想找个人来陪
你的快乐伤悲
只有我能体会
让我再陪你走一回
你的快乐伤悲
只有我能体会
让我再陪你走一回



3) 朋友的祝福

相遇在，繁忙的人群人海中
命运偶然，撮合了你和我交际
意想不到，此中我找到了你
意想不到，此中我找到了你

短暂的旅途，感觉彷佛好朦胧
之中的曲折，喜悦，感动和委屈
一瞬间，换成我们笑谈的回忆
在一瞬间，换成了我们的回忆

在今夜，我们不谈伤感
只相信，我们心中那无言的羁绊

飞翔吧！我的好朋友
展现我们心中的那份威傲
不管世界多辽阔，你走多远
不管我们的身处，在哪一边
回首只盼望，看到你微笑的容颜

眼泪只代表，我们祝福的语言。


4) 最想念的季節

半開玩笑才打破沉默　無論如何可別太想我
說不出口還是要說祝你順風啊　沒有關係　不必擔心我
偶爾陽光偶爾雷陣雨　時光如浮雲散落如島嶼
曾經我們奮不顧身捲向浪裡去　漩渦的記憶潮汐裡浮游

我所有瘋狂所有悲傷只有你了解　最想念的季節　最初的那一天
我愛說的夢你愛的歌靜止於完美　人生多麼善變啊　已無所謂
不像想的那麼容易啊　是誰說的有捨才有得
你陪我鬧　你陪我笑　陪我不說話　你陪我寫的歌　還有誰能感應

我所有瘋狂所有悲傷只有你了解　最想念的季節　最初的那一天
我愛說的夢你愛的歌苦澀而甘甜　隨我遠走高飛　緣起緣滅

未知的世界慢慢向外傾斜　未來還要多久　還給我一個夢
我有天空　自由灑脫　不管世界多麼大　也不怕　有層層雲霧
我緩緩飄落海的那邊星光的草原　卻已找不到我流過的一滴淚
我默默追尋昨天的我最遠到哪裡　明天不再有你

我怎麼瘋狂怎麼悲傷沒有人了解　最想念的季節　最初的那一天
我愛說的夢你愛的歌往事如雲煙　停在那一年　雨最大那一天
最想念的季節　有人記得嗎


5) 那就这样吧

不要哭了嘛 该哭的人是我吧
你都坦白爱上了他 我有什么办法
我...也同意啦 既然你提出想法
我们不要拖拖拉拉 就从明天开始吧

那就这样吧 再爱到曲终人散啦
那就分手吧 再爱都无须挣扎
不要再问我 怎舍得拱手让他
你走吧 到了记得
要给我通电话

那就这样吧 再爱都要 Sayonara
再给抱一下 吻一吻你的长发
不要再哭啦 快把眼泪擦一擦
这样吧 再爱我有缘的话

你不要哭了嘛 该哭的人是我吧
你都坦白爱上了他 我有什么办法
我...也同意啦 既然你提出想法
我们不要拖拖拉拉 就从明天开始吧

那就这样吧 再爱到曲终人散啦
那就分手吧 再爱都无须挣扎
不要再问我 怎舍得拱手让他
你走吧 到了记得 要给我通电话

那就这样吧 再爱都要 Sayonara
再给抱一下 吻一吻你的长发
不要再哭啦 快把眼泪擦一擦
这样吧 再爱我有缘的话

快去把东西收拾一下 再耗下去都天亮啦
这里的钥匙你先留着吧 怕你有东西
假如你有东西 忘了拿

那就这样吧 再爱到曲终人散啦
那就分手吧 再爱都无须挣扎
不要再问我 怎舍得拱手让他
你走吧 到了记得 要给我通电话

那就这样吧 再爱都要 Sayonara
再给抱一下 吻一吻你的长发
不要再哭啦 快把眼泪擦一擦
这样吧
再爱我有缘的话


6) Just For You

每年深秋 我总要说
Happy Birthday 祝福你
而这首歌 Just For You
这是为你写的歌
在我们不再是恋人的多年以后
我试着回忆已泛黄的你
什么原因叫我离你而去
往事却不复记忆
对我来说总有些心悸
虽然世故的我并不想拥有什么
就让我停留 让我停留
在满布尘埃的旧信笺里
而你依然是你
在曾是属于我们的年少时光里


7 & 8) 朋友的祝福 / 有没有那么一首歌

灯熄灭了月亮是寂寞的眼
静静看著谁孤枕难眠
远处传来那首熟悉的歌
那些心声为何那样微弱

很久不见你现在都还好吗
你曾说过你不愿一个人
我们都活在这个城市里面
却为何没有再见面却只和陌生人擦肩

有没有那么一首歌会让你轻轻跟著和
牵动我们共同过去记忆它不会沉没
有没有那么一首歌会让你心里记著我
让你欢喜也让你忧这么一个我
最真的梦,你现在还记得吗
你如今也是一个有故事的人
天空下着一样冷冷的雨
落在同样的时间
昨天已越来越遥远
有没有那么一首歌会让你轻轻跟著和
牵动我们共同过去记忆从未曾没过
有没有那么一首歌会让你心里记著我
让你欢喜也让你忧这么一个我
有没有那么一首歌会让你轻轻跟著和
随着我们生命起步,一起唱的主题歌
有没有那么一首歌,会让你突然想起我
让你欢喜也让你忧这么一个我
我现在唱的这首歌若是让你想起了我
就算来了若是寂寞,也想知道为什么
有没有那么一首歌,会让你突然想起我
让你欢喜也让你忧这么一个我
我现在唱的这首歌,就代表我对你诉说
就算日子匆匆过去,我们也曾一起走过
我现在唱的这首歌,就代表我对你诉说
就算日子匆匆过去,我们曾走过
就算日子匆匆过去,我们曾走过



9)My Friend

My friend, I know i'll be there if you're feeling blue
My friend, even though we're worlds apart
And u think u haven't got the style
to stand alongside superstars
My friend, even though how everything turned out wrong
My friend, after all its just a passing phase
We're not the only one to believe
u deserve a that much better life
So u can say what u want
let urself be free
Let ur heart guide u
But if u want, i won't desert u
i won't be far
My friend, no one knows me well like how u do
My friend, always out for the long conversations
About my indecisions, in love, my irradic moves
You're hard to find
So you can say what u want
Let yourself be free
Let your heart guide u
Cry if u want, i won't desert u, i won't be far
My friend, u know we'll be there if you're feeling blue
My friend, even though we're worlds apart
We might be walking into directions
Like we know we're inches let into
So u can laugh all u want
Let yourself be free
i won't let u down
Or do what u want, let out your victories
i'll understand
Or say what u want, let urself be free
Let ur heart guide u
Cry if u want, i won't desert u, i won't be far away

___________________________________________

Thank you all, it was, and will be,
Wonderful knowing that;

We Were There :)
