Hady is the Singapore Idol! I must say I'm quite surprised by the result cos I had totally expected Jonathan to win. I mean Hady is a much better singer, but I thought that the public/whoever wouldn't make the winner too similar to the first season. Ah well. I wanted Jonathan to win anyway cos he really knows how to emote and interpret the songs he sings, to bring out the story in the songs. And of course, I've been supporting him since the start haha. Anyway, I'm actually quite amused by the fact that I'm still following Singapore Idol quite closely despite the fact that I'm not really in Singapore haha. Whatever.
Sigh. I feel lazy to study for my child psych exam tomorrow. I do not like to memorize stuff! I was looking through my planner and I found out that I will have midterms/exams/paper due every week till the Thanksgiving break!! What a disheartening thought! Arghh. Oh well. No use complaining about it (anyway, I'm trying hard to cut down on my complaining now, cos I think complaining is really a sign of ungratefulness..).
I just found out that one of the finance courses I want to take next sem is only offered in fall! Which means I can only take it in fall '07 (I can't take it this sem cos I don't have the pre-reqs). But I need that finance course for the higher level finance electives I have to take. Arghh!! Let's just say..no matter how thorough or how hard I plan my course sequence and everything, it can just go wrong when you find out the courses you have to take are not offered or the times clash. (And I think the course catalogue I have is outdated). Ah well..shall not think about that now.
Anyway, I have a new song stuck in my head: Chasing Cars by Snow Patrol. And Jonathan's performance of this song is just fantastic.
We'll do it all, everything, on our own
We don't need anything or anyone
If I lay here
If I just lay here
Would you lie with me
And just forget the world
I don't quite know how to say how I feel
Those three words are said too much
They're not enough
If I lay here
If I just lay here
Would you lie with me
And just forget the world
Forget what we're told
Before we get too old
Show me a garden that's bursting into life
Let's waste time
Chasing cars
Around our heads
I need your grace to remind me
To find my own
If I lay here
If I just lay here
Would you lie with me
And just forget the world
Forget what we're told
Before we get too old
Show me a garden that's bursting into life
All that I am
All that I ever was
Is here in your perfect eyes
They're all I can see
I don't know where
Confused about how as well
I just know that these things
Will never change for us at all
If I lay here
If I just lay here
Would you lie with me
And just forget the world
