can you keep a secret?

Last week, my Ma told me that there's someone from Florida who will be calling my mobile phone to interview me for that PT job she wanted me to apply for. Read this post to refresh your memory.


Sunday morning at about 7 o'clock, my mobile's ringing woke me up. There was no number on the caller ID, just (no number) showing on the LCD, I turned off my phone and went back to sleep. After a couple of hours, I turned on my phone and got a text message that I got 7 missed calls from that line. The same thing happened the next day at about the same time, I turned it off too and got 4 missed calls after I turned it on. I never really thought about it when I got another call this morning, at about 10:30AM. Now, my caller ID showed a phone from the US and I suddenly remembered what my Ma told me. I just stepped in the shower at that time and I was in no mood for a "friendly chit-chat" with some foreigner (I spent 8 hours and a half at work talking to foreigners!). So, I ignored it. If that decision ruined my chances of working abroad, then so be it. But I don't think it will be all there is in my life.


I haven't told my Ma about this, so it's just between us. Shhh... :)




Airplanes
Take you away again
Are you flying
Above where we live
Then I look up a glare in my eyes
Are you having regrets about last night
I'm not but I like rivers that rush in
So then I dove in
Is there trouble ahead
For you the acrobat
I won't push you unless you have a net


You say the word
You know I will find you
Or if you need some time
I don't mind
I don't hold on
To the tail of your kite
I'm not like the girls that you've known
But I believe I'm worth coming home to
Kiss away night
This girl only sleeps with butterflies
With butterflies
So go on and fly then boy


Balloons
Look good from on the ground
I fear with pins and needles around
We may fall then stumble
Upon a carousel
It could take us anywhere


I'm not like the girls that you've known
But I believe I'm worth coming home to
Kiss away night
This girl only sleeps with butterflies
With butterflies
With butterflies
So go on and fly boy

Jezza: I'd like to, if I'm ready. But I don't think I am and I don't wanna force it, you know. If I'm meant to go there, I'd be ready when the time comes. :)

Lau: I don't feel bad about it. I'm just tired of forcing myself to do things I'm not meant to do. It's not my way out, trust me. I can feel it. :)
