David Cook - The Time Of My Life [Winning Song] -



I’ve been waiting for my dreams
To turn into something
I could believe in
And looking for that
Magic rainbow
On the horizon
I couldn’t see it
Until I let go
Gave into love and watched all the bitterness burn
Now I’m coming alive
Body and soul
And feelin’ my world start to turn

And I’ll taste every moment
And live it out loud
I know this is the time,
This is the time
To be more than a name
Or a face in the crowd
I know this is the time
This is the time of my life
Time of my life

Holding onto things that vanished
Into the air
Left me in pieces
But now I’m rising from the ashes
Finding my wings
And all that I needed
Was there all along
Within my reach
As close as the beat of my heart

So I’ll taste every moment
And live it out loud
I know this is the time,
This is the time to be
More than a name
Or a face in the crowd
I know this is the time
This is the time of my life
Time of my life

And I’m out on the edge of forever
Ready to run
I’m keeping my feet on the ground
My arms open wide
My face to the sun

I’ll taste every moment
And live it out loud
I know this is the time,
This is the time to be
More than a name
Or a face in the crowd
I know this is the time
This is the time of my life
Time of my life
More than a name
Or a face in the crowd
This is the time
This is the time of my life.
This is the time of my life.

Always on Time?

I don’t usually wear a watch that probably explains why I’m always late. Kidding aside, I don’t really like to wear a watch because my skin is hypersensitive and I always get a rash everytime I wear one. But just recently I discovered that I am not allergic to watches anymore and I can wear it for a whole day and it does not give me a rash. That’s when I started collecting watches and I don’t particularly wear all of them regularly but I just like to collect them. I’ve got favorites too and this is my everyday watch, a white gold with opal stones with butterflies especially made for me. It was a gift from a dear friend who works in a watch company in Switzerland and she custom made that watch for me last year. It really made me feel so special and I just love that watch so much.

I have several watches that I love as well and I’m not particular with the brand but with the quality, design and overall performance of the watch. I usually like watches that are simple yet oozing with elegance, just like raymond weil watches they’re design is just beautiful and equipped with the latest technology.

Now, that I wear a watch, you probably think I’m already always on time nah I’m still always late why?? Because I hate waiting and most of my friends are always late so I always arrive late than usual to avoid waiting.

Hook on Cook

I’m hooked with David Cook. I’ve watched the rerun of American Idol for the nth time and I just can’t get enough of David Cook. Goodness, I can’t remember the time I felt this way for a celebrity. I feel like a teen-ager once again for having this huge crush on David Cook. Arggh, I’m too old for this but what the heck I just love him!

Who's REALLY Threatening Your Relationship?


Straight from my

No matter how well your relationship seems to be going, there are always threats circling: financial stresses that send your harmony off-key. Divergent interests and priorities that make together-time hard to schedule. But perhaps the most potent threat comes in the form of the enemy invader -- the man or woman who has the power to lure your partner into the tempting and dangerous world of infidelity. And even if your partner is a man or woman of unyielding loyalty, your own jealousy-justified or not-can create a relationship hazard. So, is your jealousy justified? Let's take a look at the prime suspects, and see if we can't figure out what they've been up to.

The Co-Worker
In most work settings, your partner has maybe hundreds, probably dozens, or at least a few opportunities to develop good relationships with people who could be potential lovers. In most cases, those relationships are more innocent than baby lambs. Still, the average office has high potential for trouble, because it's where your partner will meet people who think alike, who battle crises side-by-side, who work in close quarters, and who have the opportunity to really get to know (and admire) each other. While it's crazy to obsess over every person your partner works with, chances are that if you have a gut feeling about a lurking somebody, there may be something to it.

Potential Threat Level: 4 stars (out of a possible 5)

The Drunk Stranger
It's the scenario we all fear. Our partner goes out, hangs with friends, flirts with fellow drunks, makes a bad decision, and wakes up with their underwear hanging from some stranger's chandelier. While the scenario lends itself easily to our imaginations, the truth is that the drunk-stranger scenario isn't as much of a threat as we make it out to be. Why? Even drunk, most of us can be savvy enough to know that the momentary adrenaline that may come from said hookup isn't worth the long-term damage that comes later. The exception: If your partner shows a propensity to make bad, dangerous decisions when drinking. In which case, they have to change, or go.

Potential Threat Level: 1 star (unless...)

The Ex
Tough one. Some of us want nothing more to do with our exes once we break up. And some of us keep have our exes as our desktop background for years after the split. Since we're very sensitive about the status of the ex (according to national surveys I did for Men, Love & Sex, 20 percent of us think that searching the Internet for an ex is cheating, for example), we all know the stakes. We know that our current partner used to find something attractive about the ex-so we're vulnerable to feeling as if we'll never live up to that prior history. While hooking back up with an ex is tempting, most of remember exactly why we broke up in the first place. Novelty is the greatest temptation toward cheating, and that's one thing an old flame can't offer: the lure of something new.

Potential Threat Level: 2 stars

The Opposite-Sex Friend
Drives you crazy, eh? He meets her for coffee every week. She IMs an old college buddy a few times a month. The opposite-sex friend lurks like a hungry wolf, ready to pounce at the next opportunity. While I'm convinced that men and women can both be very good at drawing the line between friendship and romance, the truth is that it's pretty darn easy for a long-lasting friendship to turn into a secretly burning romance. In the aforementioned surveys, one-fifth of men say they secretly love their platonic friend, with many more secretly lusting after them. That doesn't mean that your partner can't have opposite-sex friends, but it does mean that as the friendship grows, so do the odds of trouble. Potential Threat Level: 5 stars That's my inventory of lurking love threats. Now it's your turn to share yours-either merging traffic that knocked your main love interest off the road, or exit ramps you've taken, or were tempted to take, for roadside attractions. Do tell... The harder part, here, is deciding what to do about this phenomenon, whether you're tempter or temptee. My advice is to shine a big light on the situation. Mystery is the shawdowy zone where suspicions take root. So if your partner tends to worry about interoffice correspondence springing up, invite him out for after-work drinks with the gang, or to the company picnic this summer. Familiarity, in this case, breeds understanding and defuses suspicions. And if you're thinking about an extracurricular dalliance, take a step back. The only thing that works is to stick to the one-serious-relationship-at-a-time rule. If you're not satisfied with the primary relationship, either fix it or end it. Then when Paula from accounting or Peter from HR starts hanging around your desk, you'll reject the offer with good reason, or head off into the supply closet with nary a care in the world (unless, of course, there are security cameras and company rules about this sort of stuff).

Travel Plans

I love to travel and I always want to see the world. Well, it may sound impossible but I can at least try to travel to places that I really want to see. Traveling gives me a sense of fulfillment and I always love to discover new things and meet new people along the way. In a few weeks my family and I will have an interview for our US Visa application, no we’re not migrating, we just applied for tourist visa and most of our relatives from the US are really hoping that the embassy will grant us the visa so that we could visit all of them. Most of my relatives reside in California, that’s why I don’t need to find any cheap San Francisco Hotels and cheap Los Angeles Hotels when I finally grace Hollywood.

I’m terribly excited and I have a good feeling that our visa application will be approved and if that happens we’ll be flying to the US this year. My bestfriend from Toronto said that we could meet at NY and maybe stay in cheap New York City Hotels. I don’t mind if our accommodation is not first class, we won’t be staying there much anyway. As long as it provides all the necessity I need and it fit right into my budget then it’s alright. My mom also plans to visit her long-time friend in Miami and I think we need to arrange accommodation at cheap Miami hotels because I don’t feel comfortable staying with her friend and her family because we don’t really know who they are. Hopefully all our plans will come true and I’m keeping my fingers crossed.

Soothing Mood

Today is the last day of our renovation and I am excited to see our newly furnished house. I think the color I chose for the living room was so light and relaxing, it’s exactly what I want so that my family and I could have a chance to chill out after a whole day of work. The Hinkley lighting is also very inviting, it adds up to the mood and it’s very soothing.

I Want a Man

I smiled a little when I got the result after doing this quiz. Well, it's a good thing I don't need a man in my life but I have to admit it's true I definitely want one. =)



You Don't Need a Man, but You Want One!



You like having a guy in your life, and overall, you prefer not to be single.

You won't go out with a guy out of desperation.. you rather be alone.

However, when you're single, you do tend to obsess a little over dating.

Because no matter how good your single life is, it's better with a great guy around.

Do You Need a Man?

LifeLock Review

My previous entry about someone stealing my love article was someone who asked for exchange link with me and when I checked out her blog and read some of her entries I read something very familiar. The title has been change, some of the words were rephrased but still the story is very much close to my heart. I wrote that article way back in 2003, even before I started blogging and I first posted in an online forum I used to be active with. I don’t mind if someone else would re-post my articles but I would appreciate it a lot if they could somewhat be gracious enough to acknowledge me or just admit that it was copied from someone else’s blog. We should always give credit to where it is due. I really hope that plagiarism among blog can have some penalty because it’s really wrong. Imagine your creative work being stolen, now, imagine your identity being taken away from you. The internet maybe a great place to be but it is not safe. You can have your whole identity be stolen. That’s why you need lifelock for your own security and protection. I’ve read some lifelock reviews and I am persuaded to get one for myself. Why don’t you give it a try too and read lifelock review to be educated on how you can protect yourself from identity theft.

My Niece

I’m waiting for my teen-age niece. We’re off to the mall to for a little shopping, she’s celebrating her fourteenth birthday on Saturday and we’re going to buy her outfit for her party. I also have an appointment to my dermatologist for my regular facial treatment and I’m also going to consult my dermatologist about what acne treatment is suitable for my niece. I know it’s normal for teen-agers to have acne but still we need to prevent it so that she could maintain her good skin even if she gets older.

Sex and the City

My officemate handed me premiere night tickets for Sex and the City this Tuesday and I can’t help but feel excited. I used to watch that TV show regularly at HBO and I am just fascinated by Carrie, played by Sarah Jessica Parker and although the storyline doesn’t resemble my life in any way I always enjoyed watching it. Now, years after the show has ended I am thrilled to watch them on the big screen. My friends and I have been waiting for this for quite some time now and I was a bit worried that movie will not push through after reading from entertainment sites the issues surrounding the stars of that show. Well, I am glad that somehow they come to terms and pushed through with the movie. I am more glad to have a friend who could get premiere tickets, we will actually walk in the red carpet. I feel like a celebrity and I need to come up with a matching attire to go with it. On that note, I found a great web site where you can thoroughly search for people you would like to know more Spock gives you a comprehensive result for the fascinating and even the not-so fascinating people you would like to know, I looked up for Sarah Jessica Parker and I got some amazing results. If you’re looking for information about a certain person then Spock is just the one you are looking for.

Some Normality, Please

I was in the middle of my deadline and I was so stressed out. I’m not feeling well for several days now and I’ve been catching up with work. I know I need to rest and take it slow but there’s just so many things that I need to do and I hate it when my lupus forces me to drop everything, I am once again faced with the reality that I am sick and no matter how I try to put some normality in my life this chronic disease finds its way to hurt me and it sucks big time! I need some normality in my life, for weeks now I’ve been feeling really low and unhappy and I’m not even sure why.

Call Me Not
Tuesday, May 20, 2008

I put my private number in the No Call List. I am just terribly annoyed by those prank callers who have nothing good to say and those telemarketers who are trying to convince me to buy or apply for loans, etc. I think it’s a waste of time with those people. As much as I want to add my number at the Reverse Phone Lookups, I’m not sure I’m willing to pay for it.

DO NOT COPY
Saturday, May 17, 2008










Maybe you notice that I’m not posting much in this blog well I’m just not in the mood for blogging just yet.

I’ll be celebrating the first year anniversary of this blog next month and I first created this blog because I was harboring a broken heart and writing in this blog helped me overcome that broken heart.

I love writing so much and whenever I write something about love, I pour my heart content on it that is why I was dismayed to read my exact entry to someone else’s blog, this time the title was modified and some of my words were rephrased and I informed the blogger that she posted one of my entry in my archive and even provided a link for it but she just ignored it. I reported it to blogger but I’m not sure they can do anything about it. This is not the first time that I became a victim of plagiarism and it just makes me want to stop posting my love entries anymore. It’s just disappointing.
