don't worry...everything will be alright...

REAL GIRL

If I had one chance to

In my life again

I wouldn't make no changes

Now or way back when

And if everything turns out

The way I hope it goes

But I can't wait to find out

What it is that God knows

But I don't want to think about

What's gonna come around for me

I'll just take it day by day

'Cause it's the only way

To be the best that I can be

I never pretend to be something I'm not

You get what you see, when you see what I've got

We live in the real world, I'm just a real girl

I know exactly where I stand

And all I can do is be true to myself

I don't need permission from nobody else

'Cause this is the real world, I'm not a little girl

I know exactly who I am

And nothing's ever perfect

There's no guarantee

And if I knew the answers

It would put my mind at ease

So I'll just keep on going

The way I've gone so far

And maybe I'll end up

Tryin' to catch a fallin star

Baby this is who I am

Don't need you to understand

'Cause everything is right where it should be

It won't be long til you know about me,

'Cause I don't give a...

Even when I'm out of love

'Cause everythings just how it should be

And it won't be long till you know about me

I never pretend to be something I'm not

You get what you see, when you see what I've got

We live in the real world, I'm just a real girl

I know exactly where I stand

And all I can do is be true to myself

I don't need permission from nobody else

'Cause this is the real world, I'm not a little girl

I know exactly who I am

(Real Girl lyrics - Mutya Buena)

reality check

one thing i hate about myself, which my closest friends also want me to change, is that i trust too much. i'm rarely skeptical with new people i meet. i give them a 100% of my trust, up to the point when they do something to break it. i've always believed that we are all born good and that deep inside the heart of even the most evil person is a pure & kind heart.

am i really wrong to believe this? i don't want to, but should i start doubting every person i meet and from there let them earn my trust? has our world really come to a point where we can trust no one but ourselves?

proud sister

red and green

last time i went to MOA was January of this year. 9 months since, i had the chance to go there again for Sunday brunch with 2 of my great friends. i was amazed to see red & green lights installed in the parking slots. if the light in a slot is green, it means that it's available & if it's red it means that a car is parked. i wish all malls will have these kind of lights installed. it will help save gas & save time too!

Nohari Window

the nohari window is the opposite version of the johari window. it maps out a person's perceived & unrecognised weaknesses. i hope those who know me will take time off to answer this for me. don't be scared to put your name or if you are, you can answer with a codename or just leave it anonymous. i'd love to hear criticisms & hopefully change to become better. hehe:)
