I'm not a superwoman...

but maybe I can be one...

Recalling yesterday, I was running with my heels down a flight of stairs just to catch the bus, luckily the bus didn't drive off... It's been a while since I wore heels, I have been favoring the flats more. But my thoughts have been drifting away, everytime the door is closing, I realized I've already reached my destination. Like today in the MRT, like yesterday on the bus!! So I ended up alighting without tapping my Ez-link at the exit, because I anxiously ran down. I hate this stupid system, where you pay the maximum fare and get the rest refunded when you alight. Why can't they learn from London bus that we pay a fixed amount of fare!! Old people forget, anxious people like me forget... So I thought I'd check it out how I can get a refund at the ticket sales office. It ended up that I can only collect the pathetic 40cents back with the receipt a week later at any sales office. How silly, only 40 cents, takes a week?? Forget it lah hor... Well, if I do remember and if I do have the receipt... Should I write in to them that they should really improve their system!

For the last 4 months, I rarely bumped into my neighbour, this Honkie-British old couple... Till the day before, I happened to see them at the lift lobby. Since my holidaymaking in London, my neighbour auntie has been encouraging me to stay on in UK and suggests lots of ways I could stay there. I wish it is that easy! Can I give up my passport for theirs??

My life is getting routine and I seriously detest it... Work, eat and sleep. Basically, that's all I do. Finishing work, I get home around 12am or before if I'm luckier... Sleep around 3am (if I do manage a hair wash) or some TV (fortunately World Cup ended)... it means I get more beauty sleep. Woke up at 11am, not much time left after a breakfast and shower, then I need to prepare to leave for work at 1pm. Tabulek tahan!!! I don't even find the decent time to paint my nails, think about my long-termed career - I need that!

I dream every night... I wonder if all my creative cells have been resting too much at work and they all worked throughout my sleep! There is no need for my creative juice to flow at work, so sad... luckily they aren't dying, they just changed their shift to work the later night shift :S The night before I dreamt about Emperor and fruits (a buffet)... don't ask me why, maybe watched too much Korea serial the last time round. Last night, I actually dreamt I met up with Dan. A friend I have known online since I was 16... 8 years now, we lost contact and got back in touch. It's funny that we are so near yet very far at the same time. He was like a brother to me, though now we're not as close as before... He lives some bus-stops away from my workplace, but we just have not decided to meet. The later part of the dream was horrible because I met a pervert... there's no one around to help me :((((((((((


Early in the morning
I put breakfast at your table
And make sure that your coffee
Has its sugar and cream

Your eggs are over easy
Your toast done lightly
All that's missing is your morning kiss
That used to greet me

Now you say the juice is sour
It used to be so sweet
And I can't help but to wonder
If you're talking 'bout me

We don't talk the way we used to talk
It's hurtin' so deep
I've got my pride, I will not cry
But it's makin' me weak

*I'm not your superwoman
I'm not the kind of girl that you can let down
And think that everything's okay
Boy, I am only human
This girl needs more than occasional
Hugs as a token of love from you to me, ooh, baby*

I fought my way through the rush hour
Trying to make it home just for you
I want to make sure that your dinner
Will be waiting for you

But when you get there you just tell me
You're not hungry at all
You said you'd rather read the paper
And you don't want to talk

You like to think that I'm just crazy
When I say that you changed
I'm convinced I know the problem
You don't love me the same

You're just going through the motions
And you're not being fair
I've got my pride, I will not cry
Still I can't help but care

*chorus* x 2

Oh, baby, look into the corners of your mind
I'll always be there for you through good and bad times
But I can't be that superwoman that you want me to be
I'll give my everlasting love if you'll return love to me

*chorus*

If you feel it in your heart
And you understand me
Stop right where you are
Everybody sing along with me

Hoo, hoo, hoo, ooh, ooh, hoo
Hoo, hoo, hoo, ooh, ooh, hoo
I'm the kind of girl that can treat you so sweet
But you got to realize that you got to be sweeter to me, oh, ho, ho

Hoo, hoo, hoo, ooh, ooh, hoo
Hoo, hoo, hoo, ooh, ooh, hoo
I need love
I need just your love

*chorus*

I'm not your superwoman

A song that perfectly describes my feelings...
