Today's Best Site: Leaf 1
August 20, 2008 - Fairies, Ogres, Monsters, Haunted houses, Talking stuff toys and the like. These are just some of the things that kids usually believe in. When I was younger, I used to believe that when you see a brown butterfly hovering around that means you will have more money and if its a black butterfly, somebody in the family will die. Because of this beliefs I always make sure to visit mom's garden everyday and capture the black butterflies who happens to hover around and release them away from the house. Yep, I'm that superstitious.
So one day, as I was reminiscing a lil portion of my past, I came across with one of the cutest-sans-factual website. I Used To Believe is a funny collection of child beliefs, and on this website you can add your beliefs too!
Here's one of the funniest belief I've read:
Until I was five, I used to think that women gave birth to baby girls andmen
gave birth to baby boys.
How about you? What do you used to believe in when you were young?

Last Song Syndrome: Episode 2
August 17, 2008 - One of the many favorite songs i love will grace this week's last song syndrome. Fix you is part of the X&Y album of the band
Coldplay which was released in in 2005. Rumor has it that
Chris Martin, worte this song for his wife
Gwyneth Paltrow when she suffered from depression, after the death of her father. For more information about the song

I highlighted some lines that really "stucked" in my mind. I hope that you, my dear readers, will also like this song.

Fix You
by: Coldplay
When you try your best, but you don't
When you get what you want, but not what you need
When you feel so tired, but you can't sleep
Stuck in reverse
And the tears come streaming down your face
When you lose something you can't replace
When you love someone but it goes to waste
Could it be worse?
Lights will guide you home,
And ignite your bones,
And I will try to fix you,
High up above or down below
When you're too in love to let it go
But if you never try you'll never know
Just what you're worth
Lights will guide you home
And ignite your bones
And I will try to fix you
Tears stream down your face
Tears stream down your face
When you lose something you cannot replace
Tears stream down your face
And I
Tears stream down your face
I promise you I will learn from my mistakes
Tears stream down your face
And I
Lights will guide you home
And ignite your bones
And I will try to fix you
Of love and other demons,
Cathie

But don’t stop now ‘cause I’m already addicted to your evil grins and outrageous tactics.
:)

Blame it on Eli ^_^
August 11, 2008 - Ive been tagged! Im it! Im it! And now its my task to post about 5 fun facts about me.
Eli started this (so for those whom I have shared this wicked chain, blame it on Eli *grin*). Seriously, I was really having a hard time thinking what to post. I mean I want my 5 fun facts to tell my readers/friends something they don’t know. But for the past 3 months (almost) of blogging, I have posted a lot of things what leads my readers/friends how chocoholic, life-aholic, bookaholic and currently how blogaholic I am. So that’s why I chose to come up with something new.
And with the help of thorough research, concept mapping, brainstorming and clustering, I now present to you my 5 fun facts:
Numbah 1: Multiple Intelligences Test
When Ms. hazel administered the
Multiple Intelligences Test (MIT) to me and my classmates, I was so excited. I love taking personality tests. It's my way of understanding the confusing me. hehehe. So here's my result.
Purple - Naturalist - 8 points
Green - Intrapersonal - 8 points
Red - Verbal/Linguistic - 7 points
Blue - Spatial/Visual - 7 points
Light Blue - Musical - 6 points
Orange - Logical/Math - 4 points
Fuschia - Bodily Kinesthetics - 4 points
Yellow - Interpersonal - 3 points
Note: the image attached above is my result in
bgfl.org while the points are my result from Ms. Hazel's
Numbah 2: The Waterloo
In relation to the result of MIT, you may also notice that i got low in bodily kinesthetics and math. yup! both are my waterloo. I am not comfortable dancing. although it's weird because I always get picked to dance for playground demonstration, linggo ng lahi, school anniversary and even nutrition month. Weird.
In the case of Mathematics - I really hate stffs that have something to do with equations, graphs, and Mathematics. PERIOD.
Numbah 3: For the love of words and utterances
Hajimimashite? Watashiwa Kyasarin desu. Anata no onamae wa?
Fascinating. Interesting.
I really love learning new language. Right now Im learning nihongo (just one of the effects of watching too much animes). And if I am going to have a chance to learn other languages aside from Nihongo, I'd love to learn french, Spanish, Mandarin, hangul and Malay.
Numbah 4: Non-wife material
Loud and clear. i can't cook, wash&iron clothes, and sew. My papa would always say "You are a very good prospect for murder. Your husband will die of hunger." But hey! we have take-out now, right? :)
Numbah 5: Alone in the gloomy dark space
I cannot stand being alone in a gloomy dark space. I cant even move. I have my reasons.
One: My eyes vision grade is 120+ - 140+, nearsighted. This one is acceptable. It'll take a lot of time for my eyes to adjust.
Two: When it's dark, there are ghosts. I am very sensitive when it comes to the energy surrounding me. Good thing my third eye is cooperative. (It doesnt work *wink*)
Three: The last reason is that the eeeewwwy, yucky, cockroach(es) appear. i hate the disgusting mere sight of them.
So these are my 5-lengthy-fun-facts (I hope you guys wont use it against me, especially the number 5). Well, I've done my part. It's now time to pass the ball. And the ball goes to:
Jerjan
Hope you guys will have a good time cracking your heads about your 5 fun facts.
And don't forget to blame it on Eli.
hehehehehe
Of love and other demons,

Last Song Syndrome: Episode 1
August 10, 2008 - For the premier episode of the newest feature of my blog, I'm presenting to you one of my favorite song. I got acquainted with this song when my brother introduced the TV show: Grey's Anatomy to me. The lyrics is very catchy and poetic. It teaches us that we should live life to the fullest - as what common quotes would scream. I love the chorus so much. And aside from that I also love the lines:
Let the monsters see you smile, Let them see you smilling.
So without much ado, here's a video of Life is Beautiful by Vega4.
Special Thanks to:
ElleBrand and YoutubeLife Is Beautiful

Life is beautiful
We live until we die
When you run into my arms,
We steal a perfect moment.
Let the monsters see you smile,
Let them see you smilling.
Do I hold you too tightly?
When will the hurt kick in?
Life is beautiful,
but it's complicated.
We barely make it.
We don't need to understand,
There are miracles, miracles.
Yeah, life is beautiful.
Our hearts, they beat and break.
When you run away from harm,
Will you run back into my arms,
Like you did when you were young?
Will you come back to me?
I will hold you tightly
When the hurting kicks in.
Life is beautiful, but it's complicated,
we barely make it.
We don't need to understand,
There are miracles, miracles.
Stand where you are.
We let all these moments pass us by.
It's amazing where I'm standing,
There's alot that we can give.
This is ours just for the moment,
There's alot that we can give.
It's amazing where I'm standing,
There's alot that we can give.
This is ours just for the moment,
There's alot that we can give.
Of love and other demons,
Cathie

my dad killed it
August 7, 2008 - You read it right. My dad killed it. He KILLED it. It’s a sad story but he got no choice – he just want to protect us. Fear is in the atmosphere. I, myself didn’t expect that it would come near us, that it would dare get in our house.
I was the one who first saw it, and my first reaction was “OH MY GOD” *scream*. Then, after a few minutes I was brought back to reality. I was now torn between fascination and apprehension. I was thinking that maybe I could befriend it. Maybe… just maybe…
When my mom and dad arrived, I told them what happened. So my dad and my big bro immediately went to the crime scene, which is inside our house by the way.
Alas! My dad found it. So he smashed it with a piece of bamboo. He smashed it with so much gusto. It wiggled. It was a very depressing man – vs – nature scene. Then, it died. And I saw it wiggle till its last breath. It was sad. Very sad.
In memoriam:
God Bless that snake.
Of love and other demons,
