Knock You Down - Cover Version

This song is my current favourite. It's in my head over and over again. Luv this version... The girl is so pretty. A very talented couple with both having a great voice! Enjoy...



Lyrics
Keep rockin', and keep knockin'
Whether you Louis Vuitton it up or Reebokin'
You see the hate, that they're servin' on a platter
So what we gon' have, dessert or disaster?

I never thought I'd be in love like this
When I look at you my mind goes on a trip
Then you came in, and knocked me on my face
Feels like in I'm a race
But I already won first place

I never thought I'd fall for you as hard as I did
(As hard as I did, yeah)
You got me thinkin' bout our life our house and kids, yeah
Every mornin' I look at you and smile
'Cause boy you came around and you knocked me down
Knocked me down

Sometimes love comes around
(Love comes around love comes around)
And it knocks you down
Just get back up
When it knocks you down
(Knocks you down)
Sometimes love comes around
(Love comes around)
And it knocks you down
Just get back up
When it knocks you down
(Knocks you down)

I never thought I'd, hear myself say, ooh, ya'll gon' head
I think I'm gonna kick it wit my girl today, kick it wit my girl today
I used to be commander and chief
Of my pimp ship flyin' high, flyin' high)
Til I met this pretty little missile that shot me out the sky
(Oh shot me out the sky)

Hey, now I'm crashing, don't know how it happened
But I know it feels so damn good
Said if I could back, and make it happen faster
Don't you know I would baby if I could
Miss Independent, ohh, to the fullest, the load never too much
She helpin' me pull it
She shot the bullet that ended that life
I swear to you the pimp in me just died tonight
Girl sometimes love

Sometimes love comes around
(Love comes around)
And it knocks you down
Just get back up
When it knocks you down
(Knocks you down)
Sometimes love comes around
(Love comes around)
And it knocks you down
Just get back up
When it knocks you down
(Knocks you down)

Won't see it coming when it happens, hey
But when it happens you're gonna feel it, let me tell you now
You see when love knocks you down

Won't see it coming when it happens
But when it happens you're gonna feel it, let me tell you now
You see when love knocks you down

Sometimes love comes around
(Love comes around)
And it knocks you down
Just get back up
When it knocks you down
(Knocks you down)
Sometimes love comes around
(Love comes around)
And it knocks you down
Just get back up
When it knocks you down
(Knocks you down)

Freedom Writers

A good movie to watch... I think the movie was aired some time ago. But I managed to catch the movie only today on cable TV coz we had all cable channels temporarily for free. It was shown on HBO Family. For those who have watched it, I'm sure u'll agree with me. For those who have not, a recommended movie to catch. No cable TV, get or rent the DVD... Enjoy!

Results are out

My exams results are out. Alhamdulillah... I passed all 3 papers, Management Accounting, Social Psychology and Cognitive Psychology. For a freshman in a degree course, I am satisfied with my results. All the efforts did pay off... Woohoo!

Sleepover @ Grandma's house

4 days ago, I spent the night @ my grandma's house. I was accompanying grandma coz my aunt's family was away on holiday to Bali for 4 days, 3 nights. Sis and I took turns to accompany her. The first 2 nights were by my sis coz I was working... and the last night was by me. Sis had something on for the last night anyway. Kinda miz sis actually for all 3 nights...

My grandma required us to accompany her for the night only. During the day, she's fine being alone. My aunt had her neighbors to check on her also. Grandma is really an inspiration to me. She had been thru a lot but, she still stays strong and move on with life. Watching her sew and telling me that her mind is at her utmost ease when she's on her sewing machine, makes me smile together with her. It makes me happy to know that she's happy.

Love u lots, grandma... Every moments spent with you shall be cherish. Life is short, embrace it while you still can. Especially with your love ones.

IPPT

Completed my IPPT yesterday and the after effect... today, I have an aching body, especially my thigh area. The 2.4 km run was the killer. The weather was super hot. I almost feel like giving up at the fourth round. Gd thing, Salleh was pacing me... Like as though he was able to read my mind, hehe. I continued on... kept on thinking. just get it over and done with. Well, it all paid off. I got silver... That's it, I'm satisfied with the result. No more IPPT till next year.

I'm broke

I'm running out of cash... I can't wait for the next pay day!
Till then, any kind soul who can donate some money to me? =)

Weekend Off

It's hard to get the weekend off when one is working shift... Last weekend, was my weekend off. Finally... On Sat, I got back home from night shift, changed and immediately leave home again to attend Art's sister's wedding. Initially, when I arrived at the wedding, I was fine... But when the time flies, I can feel the tiredness and I was like a zombie. My eyes were giving way... I wish I was able to stay longer coz I was with a bunch of luvly peeps, Noraini, Fizah, Sab and Art. But, I had to excuse myself early coz I need to get myself some sleep. As soon as I reached home, I immediately dozed off. I spent the rest of the Sat at home, recuperating myself from a bz night shift. 

Sunday was the day that I finally met up with Said. We attended one wedding, which was his friend's sister's wedding. After that, we went out to Orchard for some window shopping and watched a movie - Night at the Museum II, at Lido. It had been a while since I last catch a movie at Lido. A really antique place... The space between my seat and the person in front of me was so near, I was afraid that I might juz kick her head. Lucky that did not happen... =) A good movie to watch if you wanna have a good laugh. After the movie, we headed back home. Not able stay till so late coz I'm working the next day. Furthermore, we were on public... I do enjoy the short time that I spent with Said though. Can't wait for the next time to see him... In 3 days time I hope.

Missing XoXo peeps, NO MORE

Now that exams are over and school holiday had begun, my focus had changed. I got back to work and my workloads are all piling up. I had to clear them all bit by bit... Gd thing I still managed to cope. On the hind side, getting back to work allows me to meet my teammate and colleagues. Although some of them can be a P.I.T.A who likes to irritate me, they are still bunch of people that I missed during my study leave. 

Recently, we had the promotion ceremony... I was involved in it coz my division was the organizer this year. The team that I worked with was great fun. Except for Aisah, it was the first time that I worked with the rest of the members. I had no problem working with them and we bonded well. It was obvious that we were the closest as compared to other teams. Being involved in the promotion ceremony, gave me the first-hand information on who got promoted this year. 3 of my squadmates, Keith, Ah Boon and Ah Huat, got promoted. There were also colleagues and friends from other division and department... It was really nice to catch up with them and CONGRATULATIONS to all!

Fortunately, Nini flew back to Singapore when my exams were over. Feefee, Art, Nini, Noraini and I got together... I had missed them so dearly and being able to meet them again was a relief. I had not met them for about a month and it seems that I had missed out a lot already. I found out that they were talking behind my back! Till now, I do not know what it is. It's alright though, I understand... it was all in the name of fun and laughter.

I made a point today that I must meet up with my grandfather and grandmother. Grandfather seems to be unwell. It breaks my heart to see his condition. But I have to keep a strong front... I really hope that he'll get better. Grandmother is fine... 

As for bf, it is still hard for me to meet him. With the current deployment, our shifts overlapped. My off days will be his working day and my working days will be his off days. But, as much as possible, we still find time to talk on the phone everyday and meet up on the limited times we had. These minor things actually got us even more closer and understand each other better =).

I am really glad that I finally had the time to catch up with the people that I missed.
