Well, I AM sick at home, but the title was just a silly way of saying 'Music' if you didn't get that... anyways... felt like posting a vid of one of my fav 80s songs. It's the live version since the actual MTV was too 80s cheesy =P. I'm definitely going to try to hunt down the piano scoresheet for this one. Might need it one day... =P
EDIT: The original video got removed... so here's another live performance vid. I wish they had this in karaoke...

If I Lay Here...
I don't quite know
How to say
How I feel
Those three words
I've said too much
But not enough
If I lay here,
If I just lay here,
Would you lie with me,
And just forget the world?
...
All that I am
All that I ever was
It's here in your perfect eyes
They're all I can see
I don't know where
Confused about how as well
Just know that these things will never
Change for us at all
If I lay here,
If I just lay here,
Would you lie with me,
And just forget the world?

The Goods and The Bads
I can never understand how there are always those days/nights that I make some of the most stupidest mistakes on the job ever... after 2 years of working you'd think I'd know better by now. I don't know...
I'm a bit peeved that I let this slip through my hands. I should've caught it. But I didn't and I nearly got into serious shit for it. Luckily, there was no big impact that mattered, so it became a learning experience for me and my friend who's new at the job. While he would have learned the most, but for me this was a lesson I shouldn't have needed repeating. Things like this really get on my nerves. Maybe I'm being a bit unfair to myself and being too hard, but I would expect to not have these things happen by now. It's kinda ridiculous...
It also had to happen on the day I had my interview for the job that I really want to move to. Great, this will really help...
Sigh... Why can't I just grow up already? I've screwed up enough times as it is... am I being too hard on myself? Too many second chances... and yet sometimes too few...

You Raise Me Up
You raise me up so I can stand on mountains
You raise me up to walk on stormy seas
I am strong when I am on your shoulders
You raise me up to more than I can be...

Leaving it all behind
Song of the moment: Utada Hikaru - Final Distance
---------------
A month... some of us still can't believe that an entire 31-day span has passed since Leslie left us. The pain still lingers, our hearts still long for the good old days when all of us could be together to share wonderful family moments like always. But we have to face the reality. My parents lost a cherished daughter. We siblings of four have become three.
I feel that I'm probably the only one who seems to have gone back to normal life almost completely. Yes, I still feel the pain. There are situations or things I hear that might remind me of Leslie and I'll end up having to step aside to cry and mourn, but for the most part, I've been ok. I've been going back to work and sounding pretty much the same. I've kept the same cheerful attitude when dealing with people at the office and it's as if nothing's changed. I think the only time it isn't is when I'm at home. Things do feel a bit less cheerful than usual, but that goes without saying.
I think perhaps it's because I have a tendency of taking things for granted when someone isn't around. I've been used to Leslie being physically away so that explains why I'm able to feel that it's not that much different. But when it dawns on me that she's physically away FOREVER, then it hits me. Things definitely will never be the same, but I don't want to see us so emotionally crippled that we've lost our touch with our goals and dreams.
Goals and dreams... knowing how much Leslie accomplished in her time on Earth, I feel that it's time I started to push myself more to get more done than ever before. I only wish that it didn't have to be in this circumstance. I should've thought that way long ago. I have to push myself in terms of getting my career goals going, and of course, other goals... though not sure what I can do in that area right now however.
It's interesting how many things have changed during the 2 weeks I was gone in HK... the future certainly is looking different than I had originally thought. A lot of interesting... 'politics' and 'talk'... and I am thinking a lot of it will continue to cement my self-identity. I'm starting to feel that I'm getting more comfortable with who I am than before. Perhaps I am maturing after all... should provide a nice self-confidence boost.
But to put it to the test... hmmm... where?
