Infused.

I used to listen to "Take it From Here" (the song that's playing now, on my blog) to calm myself down. I used to have it on repeat mode during those stressful, neck wrenching, hellish, good ole' project work days. Haha. Calmed me down a whole lot. I'd pretend that there's this lovely angel...which somehow usually takes the form of Himself (er... who, in the current context, no longer exists as my boyfriend). He is supposedly looking out for me, while warbling this awfully cheesy yet strangely romantic song, making sure that I know that everything will turn out better than just fine. It worked wonders! Within those five minutes, I’d feel all energized and raring to go! So I guess what I’m trying to say is that this song helped me source out whatever strength that is left within me, to just plunge in and get going again. Thus, here I am, hoping, in mild desperation that this song will calm me down and help me achieve that "innerpeace" before I start my last minute Econs revision again.

Anyway, here's the lyrics and my favourite cheesy lines from this song, are hi-lighted in clour! It’s so predictably cheesy... it has mozzarella dripping all over!

Take it From here

Sometimes, sometimes the world gets hard

I'm gonna take it from there girl
Don't you worry

I wanna be your lake, for your bay
And any problems that you have
I wanna wash 'em away
I wanna be your sky
So blue and high
And everytime you think of me
I wanna blow your mind


I wanna be your air
So sweet and fair
So when you feel that you can't breathe
Ma, I'll be there

I wanna be your answer, all the time
When you see how I put your life before mine
With no question

(Chorus:)
When all the love feels gone
And you can't carry on
Don't worry, girl
I'ma take it from here
Just as sure as the sun will shine
Every morning, everytime
Don't worry, girl
I'ma take it from here

I wanna hold your hands
Review all your plans
I wanna make sure everyone of your dreams will stand

I wanna be your broadway show on review
(Why)
So I can act out how God was when he made you
I wanna be your lighthouse when you get lost
I'll light a bright and shining path to help you across
I wanna be your mother, wait
See what I see
And when you see that can't nobody hold you like me
Cause I love you

(Chorus)

Give me one reason why we should not be leaving
This world is so deceiving, the time is now
Let's fly away speeding
Through the Garden of Eden
Where all the sweet breathing of love surrounds

(Chorus)

Love ain't always the way they write in books
(No, no)
See there's the good guys
And also heartbreak crooks
Your heart's the real book
Just take a look inside
'Cause it's a colorful illustrated guide

So there you go
Don't worry
I'll be the one
To help you weather the storm
I'll be there mami
No matter what time
No matter what place
You can always count on me
I'll take it from here

Oh well, I know straight up that when it comes to most things in my own life, it's all really up to me to see it through... yeah, the whole nine yards and possibly more, because only then can I say; been there, done that, made it (:

Econs prelim paper at 1pm tomorrow. Mmmm. The final papers I'm gonna sit for as a student of Millennia. I think i'm feeling a shot of nostalgia already. How about you guys? Our last seven weeks as students in uniform... believe it or not. And to think that it took a genius like Einstein to figure out that time is a relative concept. Chet.
