If I knew then My friend posted part of the lyrics of this song on her facebook wall & it immediately caught my attention. Really reminded me of my old time favourite, I knew I love you by Savage Garden. But in a very different favour of course.. this one is soft and has a melancholy tune to it.. with a splash of lifelong regret. Nice in it's own way definitely. and the lyrics is just so well written!! Anyway go have a listen on youtube, here's the link: If I knew then by Lady Antebellum Hope you enjoyed it as much as I did. ((: The first time that I saw you Looking like you did We were young, we were restless Just two clueless kids But if I knew then what I know now Id fall in love On a bus in Chicago Three rows to the left You know my heart was racing for you But we never even met But if I knew then what I know now Id fall in love Chorus Cause love only comes once in awhile Knocks on your door and throws you a smile And takes every breath, leaves every scar Speaks to your soul and sings to your heart And if I knew then what I know now Id fall in love On a summer night in August In the back seat of my car Instead of trying to get to know you I took it way too far But if I knew then what I know now Id fall in love Repeat Chorus Oh I used up a lot of chances I cant get them back But if again it comes calling Im gonna make it last Repeat Chorus Oh if I knew then what I know now Id fall in love July 16, 2010
Life's unpredictable so let Love count Loads to tell, lots to update, but never the time- but here's a short take on what's going on this Summer. FASS and NTU Biz accepted me, SMU plain rejected, very very strange. I'm either going to have another go next year or just settle down with NTU.. I'm really lazy and it's too early to tell, so anything goes really. HUGE NEWS, after a few agonising months of waiting, I finally got my Enlistment date!! It'll be on the 8th of Nov 2010 . Which is BAD because it'll mean i'll have to miss my uni intake in the year 2012 by a mere month! Obviously I can't do with just seating around doing nothing. So i headed down to CMPB, even spoke to Wong Kan Seng briefly to have my enlistment date changed to an earlier date or an assurance of some sort that i'll be allowed to disrupt my service and defer for one month, but unfortunately to no avail.. i wasn't exactly turned down, it was much worst.. my request simply fell on deaf ears. Why? Cause the government don't give definitive answers, the Minister of Defence simply doesn't care, and the folks at CMPB just don't know what I'm talking about. I pleaded for a solution, all I get was a "there's nothing i can do". I want so badly to say in return "Well, that's simply not good enough!" but I know too well that they are just going to add another word to their original reply, "there's REALLY nothing i can do"; yea, i'm SURE you don't. It's odd, how it's perfectly fair and fine if we fight and die for the country but they can't even offer to help. And instead so gladly mess up with my studies and the prospective career opportunities that I might so lose if i waste another year. In other words, I serve the nation so they can screw up my future. But the worst part is simply, not being able to do anything about it when you know, they can - well, if they wanted anyway. thus, I swallowed hard, forced myself to accept reality and settle with a part-time job for the time being. hopefully it'll be a good one. I've been idling one too long, and i wished i had completed more books. How Starbucks saved my life was really good albeit really draggy.. i hope the last lecture will be much better.. it's funny how when you're busy you always wish u had time to do all the things you want to do but when time is all you have, you find yourself a little lost, not knowing what to do first or at all, Life's unpredictable, as the recent months i had so clearly depict and sometimes it really kicks you right in the butt. What we do then, at times of swirling, is let the love in, I'm glad i have my.. the friends who share congratulations and consolations. my parents who supported me through what i now call the 'pre-enlistment saga' and a wonderful gal that loves me and serves way more than just a listening ear.. live and let die.
