The one with the song syndrome

You know when you hear a specific song and your memories simply drift to some distant memory in your life?

It happens to me all the time…And then there are songs which remind me of just one person. I wanted to forget him but whenever I hear a song that was played when we're together, I am lost again.

It seems like it happened yesterday. I was once again the girl who was waiting for a guy to notice her and the guy was looking on the other direction.

Sigh. Time flies. I thought I got over the "butterflies in the stomach" part of my life. It’s really silly to remember such stupid memories. Maybe you never really forget your first love. You can say, “I moved on” or “I’m ready for a new relationship” but when you think deeper, you still have a part of you that would scream, “You’re not completely over him yet.”

When do you get over a person?

Is it when you can look him in the eye without noticing the way he's looking at you? Is it when you can talk freely about your love life to him and do not feel any hidden motive of making him jealous? Or is it when you unconsciously bump your knees and not feel anything?

For whatever reason, I remembered him again. Honestly, my mind’s telling me to go find someone else because he can never be mine. I’m going to waste my lifetime pining for the person you have to let go even if the world turned upside down.

Another sigh.

As if that will make it go away. I wish it would. Oh boy, I wish somehow it could.

The one with the freakin' memo




I hate my boss because she gave me a freakin' memo based from her stupid assumption that I broke a code of the company.

She said she is doing her job, gets reprimanded for our absences and claims innocence. I almost walked out during a meeting after her "I'm good" speech. I literally wanted to puke at her feet. We are allowed to get sick--"Please stop acting like we're robots!"



I was not listening to her because I was busy envisioning myself telling her, "I can't stand listening to this crap", and then walking out of the office. She even had the guts to send me a message about a good news at the office after her hilarious speech.



What a fake! She's giving us the memos after she had been signed up for a development plan from the manager. A complete schemer and a manipulative superior!

Well, I feel sorry for her because after I receive my BONUS, I'm out of that stupid company and her performance is going to suffer even more because of my resignation.



I've stayed for more than 2 years for the crappy job but this memo is beyond my comprehension.

------------------------
I will not stay for being reprimanded for something I did not do. The hell with her!!!

How I wish I was my friend who could tell it to his boss' face, "I can no longer continue working for this stupid company and your idiotic supervision. Lastly, you can't fire me any time from today because I quit!"

The one with the lyrics

How To Save a Life

Step one you say we need to talk
He walks you say sit down it’s just a talk
He smiles politely back at you
You stare politely right on through

Some sort of window to your right
As he goes left and you stay right
Between the lines of fear and blame
And you begin to wonder why you came

Where did I go wrong, I lost a friend
Somewhere along in the bitterness
And I would have stayed up with you all night
Had I known how to save a life

Let him know that you know best
Cause after all you do know best
Try to slip past his defense
Without granting innocence

Lay down a list of what is wrong
The things you’ve told him all along
And pray to God he hears you
And pray to God he hears you

Where did I go wrong, I lost a friend
Somewhere along in the bitterness
And I would have stayed up with you all night
Had I known how to save a life

As he begins to raise his voice
You lower yours and grant him one last choice
Drive until you lose the road
Or break with the ones you’ve followed

He will do one of two things
He will admit to everything
Or he’ll say he’s just not the same
And you’ll begin to wonder why you came

Where did I go wrong, I lost a friend
Somewhere along in the bitterness
And I would have stayed up with you all night
Had I known how to save a life

Where did I go wrong, I lost a friend
Somewhere along in the bitterness

And I would have stayed up with you all night
Had I known how to save a life
How to save a life
How to save a life

Where did I go wrong, I lost a friend
Somewhere along in the bitterness

And I would have stayed up with you all night
Had I known how to save a life

Where did I go wrong, I lost a friend
Somewhere along in the bitterness
And I would have stayed up with you all night
Had I known how to save a life...

---I just love this song...it keeps playing in my head...over and over and over...

The one with the rooftop scene



I watched Just Like Heaven again. I just can't get enough of this movie. Who wouldn't? I mean...it's unpredictable, entertaining and has a smooth flow in its story. I love the scene on the rooftop when David (Mark Ruffalo) was sharing some of his memories to Lizzie (Reese Witherspoon) about his ex-wife:

R: What was she like?
M: You know, she was justa big pain in the ass.
No, really.
I mean, the bras on the doorknobs,
leaving the car with the...
with the gas needle below empty.
She couldn't put gas in the car.
It was impossible for her.
And just total stubborn inability to master a remote. So she would just randomly click buttons, until the TV was snarled into some unmanageable condition.
I mean, I'm so...
I'm mad just thinking...
...thinking about her.

And the other scene when his friend was doubting his sanity when they were going to kidnap her body to keep her alive...

FRIEND: If your friend's really behind me, ask her what I'm doing: Rock, paper or scissors?
R: Rock.
M: Rock.

R: Scissors.
M: Scissors.

R: Paper.
M: Paper.

R: Rock again.
M: Rock again.

R: He's flipping me off.
M: Are you flipping her off?
You're flipping her off!

FRIEND: How...? OK. OK, sometimes people with emotional and mental disturbances can have psychic moments. But even if she was real, do you know what you're risking for this woman?

M: Yes!

FRIEND: Why?

M: Because I love her.

I love her.

I do, I love you. (to Reese)
