I am yours - Jason Mraz


Saw this guy in concert last year, this is a great song.  Actually, the whole album is pretty good!  Lucky is another great song from the same album
_______________________________________________
Well, you done done me and you bet I felt it
I tried to be chill but your so hot that I melted
I fell right through the cracks, now I'm tryin to get back
before the cool done run out I'll be givin it my best test
and nothin's gonna stop me but divine intervention
I reckon it's again my turn to win some or learn some

But I won't hesitate no more,
no more, it cannot wait
I'm yours

Well open up your mind and see like me
open up your plans and damn you're free
look into your heart and you'll find love love love love
listen to the music at the moment people dance and sing
Were just one big family
And it's our godforsaken right to be loved loved loved loved loved

So, i won't hesitate no more,
no more, it cannot wait i'm sure
there's no need to complicate our time is short
this is our fate
I'm yours

Scooch on over closer, dear
And I will nibble your ear

I've been spendin' way too long checkin' my tongue in the mirror
and bendin' over backwards just to try to see it clearer
But my breath fogged up the glass
and so I drew a new face and I laughed
I guess what I'd be sayin' is there ain't no better reason
to rid yourself of vanities and just go with the seasons
it's what we aim to do
our name is our virtue

But I won't hesitate no more,
no more it cannot wait
I'm yours

well open up your mind and see like me
open up your plans and damn you're free
look into your heart and you'll find love love love love
listen to the music of the moment come and dance with me
ah, la one big family
it's your god forsaken right to be loved, loved, loved, loved

open up your mind and see like me
open up your plans and damn you're free
look into your heart and you'll find love love love love
listen to the music of the moment come and dance with me
ah, la happy family
it's our god forsaken right to be loved loved loved loved

it's our god forsaken right to be loved loved loved loved
listen to the music of the moment come and dance with me
ah, la peaceful melodies
it's you god forsaken right to be loved loved loved loved

Guys, show your dicks!

When I was shopping for cars back in Spring, I had consultations from lots of friends, guys had tons of suggestions, from european to japanese.  Girls on the other hand, had no idea why cars are big deals to guys, to some of them, cars are cars are cars.

The thing with cars and guys are simple.  A car is the extension of a guy's dick.

Never mind what a guy is telling you, how the job requires a more presentable car (that doesn't explain the 300hp), or safer car (that doesn't explain the highest speed of 250km/h), or they need to drive clients (that doesn't explain the 2 door coupe)...  he just wants a nice presentable part of himself.

That is why when a guy has the chance, he will get a 2 door car, preferably with more than 200hps, preferably black.  I have been trying to talk friends out of buying a crappy Audi TT, or a impractical Accord Coupe...

For those guys who have grown up, they will op into a SUV, because they are safer (not always), and give better vision (but many of them seats lying down, that doesn't give much vision).  All they are doing is to avoid buying the unavoidable Van for future family members, to preserve part of their manhood, SUV is their last resort.

For myself, I got myself a black, totally unreliable, not exactly fast coupe... hey, i want my dick to look good!

Grumpy older man

It is almost that time again, age is slowly creeping up on me.  Although I have been telling everyone I have met this year that I'm 33, it still sucks when I age.

It's not like I cannot feel it either, I get sleepy all the time before lunch after lunch, during and after conversations...

The worst effect is probably the grumpiness that comes with aging.  I mean I should become more patient and wiser.  But I'm finding myself getting frustrated more easily.

Frustrated at traffic, at pushy sales, chatty friends, speed of my computer.  

Of course there might be reasons other than aging causing my grumpiness.  

But getting older does kinda suck.  Especially when I always have feelings that when someone ages, it is the time to check if the person has accomplished enough.

I always feel under-accomplished, and that sucks!

Kayaking marriage

My friend and her husband just came back from a 3 hour kayaking tour.  Ms. Cake asked her how it was.

She said it was exhausting, all the paddling with and against the current.  She wanted to quit a few times but knowing that her husband won't be able to paddle the kayak by himself, she soldiered on and survived...

Ms. Cake told me about the conversation and commented that it is a perfect metaphor for marriage as well.  The couple is on the same boat, with clear goal in mind, one cannot quit because the boat won't go anywhere with just one person paddling.

Beautiful analogy, I said, and I added, "they should have fun and enjoy the scenery on the way to their goal as well".  Like my married friends.

其實我很不浪漫

最近不知道怎麼了, 面書上出現了一堆為女人寫的文章, "其實你不懂女人", "女人只要你的溫柔", "男人必看"... 光是看名字就很反感了.

今天早上, 看了女王的文章, 叫"他很不浪漫", 要不我拜讀過女王的文章, 我會把它當作靠腰文跳過去, 但女王至少還是兩性作家, 應該不會太靠腰.

看了以後, 就明白男生和女生成長的歷程, 曾經自己也是扮浪漫的小男生, 寫歌, 送花, 溫暖接送情. 不知道什麼時候開始, 會被罵, 被嫌, 不夠浪漫, 像根木頭.

其實, 我很不浪漫, 很少買花, 很少稱讚, 很少擺闊, 但我省下來計畫以後...
