love is winning by beginning,
one step at a time

you know smth, twinn? i just realised that (before this post) we have 69 posts in total on this blog. haha queer number :D anyway i shall start updating regularly so this doesn't become the TWINN'S blog instead of TWINNS' blog. note the great difference caused by the positioning of the apostrophe. hoho i still rmbr that sample essay we were given in eng/lit named "in appreciation of the apostrophe", wait or was it the full stop or exclamation mark x/

went over to twinn's place today! haha acia was playing maplesea as usual, and benny wasn't home yet. i taught twinn how to play ff tactics advance on gba, but then the controls very hard to teach leh, cos i'm so used to the feel of the buttons that i hafta pause and think if u ask me the exact buttons to press. it's just instinct luh :/ yup heh and now twinn knows why i'm so addicted to that game, besides the fact that i am a total game junkie :D i want ps3! it's coming out soon soon soon and i must have it (:

bleah i forgot to bring the twist of fate cd to twinn's place today; SORRY TWINN ): to make it up to you, i shall post the lyrics to house of lim chin boon here, see i'm so sweet ((:

[Chorus]
Oh, so sedate so refined
Seeming to the world that there's
Nothing on our mind
Not a hair out of a place
As we sip from the cup
All is style and grace
With our little pinkies up
Is it all a facade?
Are we tense?
Are we trying too hard?
It's the effort we make
For appearance's sake
But this scene cannot last
If you're versed in such things
You will know, it will end
When the door bell rings

Still we sit, still we wait
Have another cup,
doesn't matter if she's late
Are we all we appear?
Does it show? Can you tell?
This is a veneer
That we polish rather well
But then to our dismay
Came the note
She's arriving today

With the deepest regret
She is bound to upset
Our domestic affairs
With the news that she brings
But we'll know pretty soon
When the door bell rings

Maybe it's a hoax
One of Richard's jokes
Why should she come searching now?
If a joke then I don't see the humour
Must we all be tormented by a rumour?
I trust the truth will soon unfold
It's just some girl
who comes to dig for gold

A pleasant afternoon
The house of Lim Chin Boon
A house that seems at home with intrigue
Feuds and tragedy
A normal afternoon
The house of Lim Chin Boon
The surface seems unruffled but beneath
the torrents run
And no-one deals with this as well as
The Peranakan

[Repeat Chorus]

If we are correct
What will she expect?
Surely Boon will not allow her here
Not now
If she is who we think, can she prove it?
If a problem we'll have to remove it
She can go back to England from whence
She came
With her foolish story
A pleasant afternoon
The house of Lim Chin Boon

listening to it now, it sounds so alfred hitchcock-ish. there's a name for that you know. distortion or something starting with d, some piano playing style we learnt it music (: the violin sounds tragic too :D HAHA AND ONE STEP AT A TIME sounds comic. like the song "at midnight"; i love that song! especially when they all harmonise and throw open the windows at the end. i wanna watch again!
