As Long As You Love Me by Backstreet Boys

Backstreet Boys band was really popular in the 90s era. My secondary female classmates would scream their name in class. I like their songs but prefer the Spice Girls back in 1997, the year I took GCE 'O' levels examination. 

I love many songs by the Backstreet Boys including this song As Long As You Love Me. I hope you do too. 

                                                As Long As You Love Me

Although loneliness has always been a friend of mine
I'm leaving my life in your hands
People say I'm crazy and that I am blind
Risking it all in a glance
And how you got me blind is still a mystery
I can't get you out of my head
Don't care what is written in your history
As long as you're here with me

I don't care who you are
Where you're from, what you did
As long as you love me
Who you are, where you're from
Don't care what you did
As long as you love me

Every little thing that you have said and done
Feels like it's deep within me (ooh, ooh-ooh)
Doesn't really matter if you're on the run
It seems like we're meant to be

I don't care who you are (who you are)
Where you're from (where you're from)
What you did, as long as you love me (I know)
Who you are (who you are)
Where you're from (where you're from)
Don't care what you did
As long as you love me

Yeah-eh-eh!
As long as you love me

I've tried to hide it so that no one knows
But I guess it shows
When you look into my eyes
What you did and where you're coming from
I don't care
As long as you love me, baby (ooh, ooh-ooh)

I don't care who you are (who you are)
Where you're from (where you're from)
What you did, as long as you love me
Who you are (who you are)
Where you're from (where you're from)
Don't care what you did (yeah-eh-eh)
As long as you love me (as long as you love me)

Who you are (who you are)
Where you're from, what you did
As long as you love me
Who you are (who you are)
Where you're from (where you're from)
As long as you love me
Who you are, as long as you love me
What you did, I don't care
As long as you love me

Big Panda and Tiny Dragon

I like this picture book, Big Panda and Tiny Dragon by James Norbury at Kinokuniya. It shares snippets of wisdom in this beautifully illustrated book. I went to kinokuniya bookstore at Ngee Ann City last Friday to read and buy some books and magazines. They have a wide variety of books which I love. I can spend hours browsing the latest books and magazines. So normally I go to bookstore alone as I can spend 3 to 5 hours reading the latest books and magazines. I hope bookstores will continue to have a presence in shopping malls. I still prefer real books and not electronic book.

 

Spice Up Your Life

Sharing good news with all singles! You can sign up for $100.00 sparks credit to offset up to 50% of course or events fees. Recently I received update that I have $100.00 credit Sparks Connection which allows singles to use the credits to participate in events to meet other singles too. I realised I didn't use the $100.00 spark credits for the past three years. 

I think it's time to spice up my life and not stay at home on weekends during the November and December school holidays. I'm looking forward to participating in interesting events to meet new people in one of the activities. I find Art spinning and Barista skill workshops interesting. It's like the Skills Future credit but it's only for singles. I can use the sparks credits to offset the workshops costs. If you love to cycle, there are many cycling activities too. 

Sadly for Barista skill workshop where you get to learn about coffee and coffee art, the maximum class size is only 4 people. 2 people from each gender. Anyway if I don't meet suitable guy, at least I learn something new about coffee. Think I better lose 7 kg before attending the workshop.

OneMillion Trees Movement in Singapore

Are you interested to help to achieve the goal of planting one million trees over the next ten years in Singapore? I find this activity really meaningful and plan to plant a tree in mid or late November. It is one method to reduce climate change. I love nature as it helps me to recharge and it helps to reduce global warming. 

Hey buddies if you plan to plant a tree too, watsapp me so we can participate this meaningful activity together. I will go only in November during the holidays. 

To find out more information on upcoming tree-planting activities, you can visit NParks website here.

Fractal Clouds?

This morning I saw a unique cloud scenery at my workplace.  It reminds me of fractal shapes and cabbage. What do you see?

Home-cooked Tacos

I love to eat crunchy tacos but find it expensive.  I decided to try and cook tacos at home and I think it turned out great. Great if there are avocado, egg and cheese. 

Christmas 2020 at Gardens by the Bay

Beautiful Italian lighting at Gardens by the Bay during the Christmas season in Singapore. 

Blooming Tulips at Gardens by the Bay Flower Dome

梁靜茹- 沒有如果

I like to sing this song whenever I go to karaoke with my buddy and cousins. It's not so challenging to sing with those high notes. I miss singing at karaoke with my buddy who can sing very well and with my cousins.

Fluffy Clouds Today in Singapore

I love today beautiful fluffy clouds. This morning, the clouds are like soft fluffy cotton and this afternoon the clouds are much crisper and brighter with bright shining sun up in the sky. What a beautiful day today!

Soft fluffy clouds up in the sky this morning at Ang Mo Kio. 

Hot blazing sun hidden behind the clouds this afternoon.
