Am I better off dead Am I better off a quitter They say I'm better off now Than i ever was with her As they take me to my local down the street I'm smiling but I'm dying trying not to drag my feet They say a few drinks will help me to forget her But after one too many I know that I'm never Only they can see where this is gonna end But they all think I'm crazy but to me it's perfect sense [Chorus] And my mates are all there trying to calm me down 'Cause I'm shouting your name all over town I'm swearing if i go there now I can change your mind turn it all around And I know that I'm drunk but I'll say the words And she'll listen this time even though their slurred Dial her number and confess to her I'm still in love but all i heard was nothing [Verse 2] So I stumble there, along the railings and the fences I know if I'm face to face that she'll come to her senses Every drunk step i take leads me to her door If she sees how much I'm hurting She'll take me back for sure [Chorus] She said nothing Oh I wanted words but all I heard was nothing Oh I got nothing Nothing I got nothing Nothing Oh I wanted words but all I heard was nothing [Verse 3] Oh sometimes love is intoxicating Oh you're coming down your hands are shaking When you realise there's no one waiting Am I better off dead Am I better off a quitter They say I'm better off now Than I ever was with her [Chorus] She said nothing Oh I wanted words but all I heard was nothing Oh I got nothing Nothing I got nothing Nothing Oh I wanted words but all I heard was nothing Oh I got nothing I got nothing I got nothing
Nothing

Still Gonna Eat It?

Here's an article that I've just read a few days ago regarding fast food, but after reading it, I think I won't be eating McDonald’s anytime soon. Here's why.
Vladimir Lenin, King Tut and the McDonald's Happy Meal: What do they all have in common? A shocking resistance to Mother Nature's cycle of decomposition and biodegradability, apparently.
That's the disturbing point brought home by the latest project of New York City-based artist and photographer Sally Davies, who bought a McDonald's Happy Meal back in April and left it out in her kitchen to see how well it would hold up over time. The results? "The only change that I can see is that it has become hard as a rock," Davies told the U.K. Daily Mail.
She proceeded to photograph the Happy Meal each week and posted the pictures to Flickr to record the results of her experiment. Now, just over six months later, the Happy Meal has yet to even grow mold. She told the Daily Mail that "the food is plastic to the touch and has an acrylic sheen to it."
Davies -- whose art has been featured in numerous films and television shows and is collected by several celebrities -- told The Upshot that she initiated the project to prove a friend wrong. He believed that any burger would mold or rot within two or three days of being left on a counter. Thus began what's become known as "The Happy Meal Art Project."
"I told my friend about a schoolteacher who's kept a McDonald's burger for 12 years that hasn't changed at all, and he didn't believe me when I told him about it," Davies told us. "He thought I was crazy and said I shouldn't believe everything that I read, so I decided to try it myself."
Some observers of the photo series have noted that the burger's bun appears at different angles, and therefore aired suspicions that the Happy Meal may not in fact be as "untouched" as the project's groundrules stipulate. Davies says there's a simple explanation for the mobile-bun effect. "The meal is on a plate in my apartment on a shelf," she says, "and when I take it down to shoot it, the food slides around. It's hard as rock on a glass plate, so sure, the food is moving."
Davies' friend was the person who should have done the additional research. Wellness and nutrition educator Karen Hanrahan has indeed kept a McDonald's hamburger since 1996 to show clients and students how resistant fast food can be to decomposition.

So are you still gonna go and eat at McDonald’s? I'm not. :)

That's just how I feel right now...
I was born in the arms of imaginary friends
free to roam, made a home out of everywhere I've been
then you come crashing in, like the realest thing
trying my best to understand all that your love can bring
oh half of my heart's got a grip on the situation
half of my heart takes time
half of my heart's got a right mind to tell you
that I can't keep loving you (can't keep loving you)
oh, with half of my heart
I was made to believe I'd never love somebody else
I made a plan, stay the man who can only love himself
lonely was the song I sang
free to roam, made a home out of everywhere I've been
then you come crashing in, like the realest thing
trying my best to understand all that your love can bring
oh half of my heart's got a grip on the situation
half of my heart takes time
half of my heart's got a right mind to tell you
that I can't keep loving you (can't keep loving you)
oh, with half of my heart
I was made to believe I'd never love somebody else
I made a plan, stay the man who can only love himself
lonely was the song I sang
'til the day you came
Showing me another way and all that my love can bring
oh half of my heart's got a grip on the situation
half of my heart takes time
half of my heart's got a right mind to tell you
that I can't keep loving you (can't keep loving you)
oh, with half of my heart
with half of my heart
your faith is strong
but I can only fall short for so long
Down the road, later on
you will hate that I never gave more to you than half of my heart
but I can't stop loving you
I can't stop loving you, I can't stop loving you
Showing me another way and all that my love can bring
oh half of my heart's got a grip on the situation
half of my heart takes time
half of my heart's got a right mind to tell you
that I can't keep loving you (can't keep loving you)
oh, with half of my heart
with half of my heart
your faith is strong
but I can only fall short for so long
Down the road, later on
you will hate that I never gave more to you than half of my heart
but I can't stop loving you
I can't stop loving you, I can't stop loving you
I can't stop loving you , I can't stop loving you [x3]
but I can't stop loving you with half of my...
half of my heart, oh half of my heart
half of my heart's got a real good imagination
half of my heart's got you
half of my heart's got a right mind to tell you
that half of my heart won't do
half of my heart is a shotgun wedding
but I can't stop loving you with half of my...
half of my heart, oh half of my heart
half of my heart's got a real good imagination
half of my heart's got you
half of my heart's got a right mind to tell you
that half of my heart won't do
half of my heart is a shotgun wedding
to a bride with a paper ring
And half of my heart is the part of a man
And half of my heart is the part of a man
who's never truly loved anything
half of my heart, oh half of my heart
half of my heart, oh half of my heart
half of my heart, oh half of my heart
half of my heart, oh half of my heart
SICK

Feeling awfully sick today. Went out to KL Yap Ah Loy Temple in the morning to receive blessing for the upcoming finals in November. But after breakfast, that's where all the sickness starts coming. Of all the times that it could have happened. But now I'm suspecting that it's because of the dessert I shared with Ai Vee yesterday after she ate "the bomb". And yes, she's sick. *facepalms*
Wanted to make today a very productive day by finishing chemistry and calling for sponsors, but had the entire day taken away. Head is still throbbing now. I even had to force myself to go out to collect the blazer with my head feeling like it's gonna explode anytime just now. Robyn's right, the blazer's so freaking small. And sorry I couldn't make it to Pam and Sharleen's outing at Pyramid. Soooo sorry, but still, HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!! =D
Here are some cartoon about falling sick, so yeah...enjoy! =p
