thank God for popcorn too

You Are a Buttered Popcorn Jelly Bean

You have a strong, distinct flavor that makes you quite controversial. Some people love you, others wish you would disappear forever.

DOIN' JUST FINE
Boyz II Men

There was a time when I thought life was over and out
When you went away from me
My dying heart made it hard to breathe
Would sit in my room
Because I didn't want to have to go out
And see you walking by
One look and I'd break right down and cry

Now you say that you made a big mistake
Never meant to take your love away
But you can save your tired apologies
'Cause it may seem hard to believe, but..

Chorus:
I'm doin' just fine
Getting along very well
Without you in my life
(I don't need you in my life)
I'm doin' just fine
Time made me stronger
You're no longer on my mind

You were my earth, my number one priority
I gave my love to only you
Anything you'd ask of me I would do
But somewhere down the road
You felt a change in the weather
And told me that you had to journey on
A kiss in the wind and your love was gone

Now you say you never meant to play your games
Boy don't you know it's far too late
Because you let our love just fall apart
You no longer have my heart
(Chorus)

When you said goodbye I felt so all alone
There were times at night I couldn't sleep
My heart was much too weak to make it on my own
Baby after all the misery
And pain you put me through
So unfair to me boy
You're no longer my world
And I ain't missin' you at all
(Chorus)

i am dedicating the song above to my friend sam. and probably partly to friend sanny as well (ok sanny, though i really got confused and a bit miffed during our chat earlier.. maybe one of these days we'll talk more sanely about that again). guys.. you know why the song's for you.. :)

as for me, well, i'm doing just fine right now. in fact, i'm doing more than fine.. thanks to the first heavy rains of summer hehehe :) i'm grateful for a lot of things. and so, before i turn in for the night, here's a short "thank you" list:

i thank God for:
.. my family who puts up with my weirdness and laziness (hehe)
.. my tita ruby who always emails me though i don't always have time to reply (sorry hehe)

.. my zahir who adds zest and color to life
.. my soulmate who knows how to lift up my mood everytime
.. my friend sanny who often drives me nuts
.. my bestfriend lian who learned to love sandman because of me :p
.. my sister hazel who's been trying to meet up with me for the longest time
.. my sarcastic and cynical pal carolle who owes me lunch ;)
.. my students who texted their "get well" msgs to me this am (awww)
.. the pc that's kept me company the entire day
.. lemony snicket whose books entertained me tonight
.. genius neil gaiman who's soooooo gorgeous (i wonder when he'll be back here)
.. creative for replacing my zen micro unit :)
.. nokia for coming up with the N71
.. c.o. bigelow for making such a cool lip balm
.. the bed i'll sleep in and the pillows i'll be hugging in a few minutes

*yawn* yep.. i'm certainly doin' fine.. and more :) and though some people will probably wish that i'll "disappear forever," just the thought that some people do love me ensures that i'll be sleeping with a smile on my face tonight.. :)
