Week 2

Ever since I left my glasses on my dressing table all alone, I've had people noticing my eyes - my eyelashes in particular. Feels good when changes work in your favor. Thank goodness I've made the right decisions so far. Not that I'm bragging or anything, it's just that I had been quite on an emotional ride for the past year - be it work or personal. I could feel my body giving up on me sometimes. And my mind would just not work when I needed it the most. A little change is all I need.

Anyway, no more tuition classes from this week on. I figured I wouldn't be able to take the extra load that comes with the new job. I think the kids will be alright, they're a bunch of smart and hardworking young people. I'm not that worried. They'll be alright. I'm gonna miss teaching and being amused at their innocent way of reasoning.

It's sad to leave something that I enjoyed doing but to tell you the truth, I am happier. I feel more confident, I am more sensitive to my needs, I am livelier than I've ever been and also I feel a leeeeettle bit sexier. You'll never know what a career can do to a woman. I've never imagined to be at where I am now. Still I have so much plan for myself I don't think I can do it all. There's so much I want to do but then again, one can only plan. What a short life span we humans have!

At this stage of my life, I'm thankful for the person that I am, for the family that I have, for the friends (I have a small circle of them) who care, for the miraculous helps that seems like coming out of nowhere and for this blog, for without it I'd be like a lost puppy. Now I really wish I had a boyfriend so I could mention about him here but looks like that's not going to happen soon. Hmmm.... well that's a start.

Off topic, this is the song Keith Urban serenaded his wife at their wedding...

. The lyrics made me smile the first time I heard it over the radio.

Making Memories of Us

I'm gonna be here for you baby, I'll be a man of my word
Speak the language in a voice that you have never heard
I want to sleep with you forever, and I want to die in your arms
In a cabin by a meadow where the wild bees swarm

I'm gonna love you like nobody loves you
And I'll earn your trust making memories of us

I want to honor your mother, and I want to learn from your pa
And I want to steal your attention like a bad outlaw
And I want to stand out in a crowd for you, a man among men
I want to make your world better than it's ever been

And I'm gonna love you like nobody loves you
And I'll earn your trust making memories of us

We'll follow the rainbow
Wherever the four winds blow
And there'll be a new day
Comin' your way

I'm gonna be here for you from now on, this you'll know somehow
You've been stretched to the limits but it's alright now
And I'm gonna make you this promise
If there's life after this
I'm gonna be there to meet you with a warm wet kiss

And I'm gonna love you like nobody loves you
And I'll earn your trust making memories of us

I really love his lyrics. Here's another one - just a snippet.

I wanna be the wind that fills your sails
Be the hand that lifts your veil
Be the moon that moves your tides
The sun comin' up in your eyes
Be the wheel that never rusts
Be the spark that lights you up
All that you've been dreamin' of and more
I wanna be your everything

And another.

We all have our days when nothing goes as planned
Not a soul in the world seems to understand
And for someone to talk to, you'd give anything
Well go on and cry out loud 'cause someone's listenin'

Call it an angel
Call it a muse
And call it karma that you've got comin' to you
What's the difference
What's it in a name
What matters most is never ever losin' faith
'Cause it's gonna be alright
You're not alone tonight
