the rose with black ribbon?

it almost always seem that you are always one step ahead of me. i couldn't agree more. the song just somehow struck a chord in my heart and sang to the lyrics of the tune.

Say you love me every waking moment

Turn my head with talk of summertime

Say you need me with you now and always

Promise me that all you say is true

That's all I ask of you

Interestingly i had this conversation with a close friend of mine. she was complaining how important it is to have the same priorities. Hey SG, you hit the nail on the head. I should know. It was what destroyed me. LY, i read your friendster. Yup, i do understand. Strike one off your new year's wish? Your priority was me, or rather our relationship. I am ashamed to say mine wasn't. Always thought (somehow) it was the last chance for me to pursue what i can during my academic life. But i was wrong. Hon said one thing to me which will stick with me forever. "Spend your time with that someone who is important to you. Cos she will be the one that will walk the rest of your life with you." Dammit. He's right. I have learnt to appreciate the people around me better and actually just screw those who dun give a shit about me/our friendship a little bit harder. Typical DM? I am not sure but it is my new belief on how things should work.

Personal note to Hon: I sure hope my wishes come true too. Thanks for being a great friend all these years.

Say youll share with me one love, one lifetime

Say the word and I will follow you

Share each day with me, each night, each morning

Love me, that's all I ask of you

Happy 2005 everyone. Hope your wishes come true too.

We have only so much time for so many people.

Make it count.
