And after all we are are blind

Sometimes we are blind to what we have
Sometimes we are blind to things we need to treasure
Sometimes we are blind to what our actions will bring
Sometimes we are blind to what we need
Sometimes we are blind to our potential
Sometimes we are blind to possibilities
Sometimes we are blind to our purpose
Sometimes we are blind to what will the future may hold
Sometimes we are blind to pray for things other than sight
After all we are blind

Just take me away

this time what I want is you
there is no one else
who can take your place
this time you burn me with your eyes
you see past all the lies
you take it all away
I've seen it all
and it's never enough
it keeps leaving me needing you

take me away
take me away
I've got nothing left to say
just take me away

- Lifehouse

Even after performing this song a few times (especially at one Holy Trinity feast day where people at the coffee shop were looking in), I never really felt the emotion until recently, Jason Wade is such an awesome song writer.

Lifehouse has been so inspirational to me, I loved their music ever since their first album and I still remember hearing "Hanging by a moment" on radio in 2001 when I was in NS and just had to find out the band.

My respect for them grew with their next few albums and singles and what sealed the deal for Lifehouse to be one of the best bands in the jon high fidelity charts was when they paid tribute to George Harrison in 2007, by performing an acoustic cover of Something

While my heart gently weeps

I want to tell you
my head is filled with things to say

I give you all my love
that's all I do

I give my heart to you
from the very start

Try to see it my way
Why do you see it your way?

Think of what you're saying
Think of what I'm saying

Seeing the strawberry fields
let's be the fools on the hill

there will be no answers
if we let it be

I wanna tell you something
I wanna hold you hand

Remember I'll always be true
I'll send all my loving to you

Money can't buy me love
Money can't buy my love

There's no good reason
to take the fast way out

Baby you can drive my car
cause baby I love you

we're looking through each other
and we're not the same

let's fix the hole
and never like the rain get in

when I'm sixty-four
I will still need you
I will still feed you

Something in the way you move
Don't want to leave you now
Don't need no other lover

Help me if you can
I'm feeling down

There is no one compares with you
In my life I love you most

We can work it out
We can work it out

We built this city

During my JC days, when I was thinking about University and what I wanted to do as my career, other than IT/Computers, architecture was there in my top 10 list. I always wonder whether I would have liked it. To a certain extent, the field is both an art and science, very interesting...

Anyways, 2 days back ,the URA unveiled the eight winners for the 2009 Architectural Heritage Awards, I really like the interior of the india house and the external design of the old vs school. The rest of the winners are also interesting in their own way.

When I was in New york, the architecture there was great with so many different designs and styles, it really showed the age of the city and many influences man had. One building, the Flatiron Building on 5th Ave, caught my attention due to it's shape from the sky, it looks like a slice of cake or pie! Anyways it is based on the Beaux-Arts style which was a style that started and was taught in Paris (see how architecture spreads across continents and countries)



I realized that architects' designs like transcends time and if it's good, people actual study it! Seems so subjective, just like any art subject right? Somehow, it is also like music, it makes you feel a certain way, like how old shophouses make you think of times of our forefathers.

We'll you made through the troubled times

One of my all-time favourite Fountains of Wayne songs, I remember the first time listening to this in 1999... it just touched my soul and still does, incredible.... after all these years...

I can't believe I missed Chris Collingwood performing this live at Baybeats 2009! Well at least someone recorded it
