SMILE

"SMILE" by Nat King Cole

Smile though your hear is aching

Smile even though it's breaking

When there are clouds in the sky, you'll get by

If you smile through your fear and sorrow

Smile and maybe tomorrow

You'll see the sun shining through for you

Light up your face with gladness

Hide every trace of sadness

Although a tear may be ever so near

That's the time you must keep on trying

Smile, what's the use of crying?

You'll find that life is still worthwhile, if you just smile

That's the time you must keep on trying

Smile, what's the use of crying?

You'll find that life is still worthwhile, if you just SMILE.

* This song is based on an instrumental theme in the soundtrack for the 1936 Charlie Chaplin movie and it is composed by Charlie Chaplin himself.  The original singer is Nat King Cole but subsequently is sung by Michael Jackson and it is one of Michael's favourite song.  Listening to this song when a bit down, does cheer you up a bit.  'SMILE' and there will be a better tomorrow.  Is it that hard to tickle ourselves sometimes?!?  Haha  : )))

In Loving Memory of MooMoo's beloved Brother

Time really flies... It's one year already... 21st August 2012.

Around this time last year, MooMoo's brother had the most difficult time to go through.  Death leaves a heartache no one can heal, Love leaves a memory no one can steal.  Well, one thing for good is that he never had to go through it alone and he managed to say goodbye to all his loved ones before he returned to God's side.

He is dearly missed by everyone who loves him.  Sometimes, MooMoo actually missed his nagging and arguments.  Someone actually reminds MooMoo a lot about him.  Well, MooMoo's brother may no longer be around but he will always stay close to our hearts.... and watching Cutie Pie grow up is like having him near all of us.  Cutie Pie really resembles him.  She is really smart, super stubborn and hot tempered.  She even have a big ego like daddy but she is a real good girl.  If daddy's around, she is sure a 'Daddy's girl'.

Always in our thoughts, Forever in our Hearts.  May you always rest in peace.

No luck for Swimming today :p

It's been awhile since MooMoo last go swimming, which was about more than a year ago with Piggy.  MooMoo bought herself a new swimsuit and a new pair of goggles to start her swimming workout again.  She got bit motivated reading Piggy's blog and want to get back to her swimming lessons too.  Peer pressure?!?  Hahaha!!

MooMoo got everything ready for swimming, waiting to opening ceremony her new pair of goggles but too bad the weather was pretty unpredictable.  It was still beautiful all the way... but when MooMoo was nearing the swimming pool, there was a sudden downpour. = ((

MooMoo and friend waited awhile for the rain to stop, then walked over the swimming pool.  Although the rain stopped but they would not let us swim as the pool is remained closed till further notice.  So disappointing!  Will have to wait till next week then.

MooMoo hope that this new pair of goggles is really 'anti-fog'.  Hahaha.  Here's some tips from MooMoo's friends to keep the goggles away from fog.  

(1) Pooi... Pooi... Pooi! Disgusting saliva... :p

(2) Anti Fog solution

(3) Johnson Baby's Shampoo

(4) Toothpaste

MooMoo will just stick to option 2, if the anti-fog feature of this new goggles fail.  

* Lucky, MooMoo did 2 classes (Step and Sculpt) today... to compensate for not swimming... feels good that the abs and the butts are aching badly now... kekeke... No pain, no gain... Starting to feel a bit BLUE dy now... Hope these 2 days HAPPY hormones can boost up some energy... = ))

THE SMURFS 2

MooMoo's gym buddies called her a kiddo when she told them she is going to watch SMURFS.  It's always GREAT to be a kiddo.  Everyone gets wrinkles but you can always stay young at heart and enjoy life! Never too old to do whatever makes you happy.  = )))

It's an enjoyable movie for a fun laughter but funny that it actually make MooMoo leaking a bit in the movie.  A new word learnt from the movie... leaking = crying. Hahaha!  It actually set MooMoo tearing a bit at this part towards the end of the movie.

MooMoo loves the part where Papa Smurf said this phrase to Smurfette, "It does not matter where you come from, what matters is what you choose to be".  It is also true that what Papa Smurf said to the rest of the smurfs that "You never give up on famly!"

The 2 little new characters are quite cute, 2 naughties called "Vexy" and "Hackus" that the baddy "Gargamel" created.  Smurfette's voice is actually by Katy Perry and Vexy's voice is by Christina Ricci.  Vexy somewhat reminds MooMoo of Christina Ricci's features.

If you're looking for some fun and laughter, you can go catch this movie but if you're expecting more than that, it will not be that entertaining for you.  La.. la.. la la la la... La.. la la la la... LOL! :p

* MooMoo did gym marathon today... 4 classes in a row: Pilates, Step, Flex & Flo and ABT... feels great with all the HAPPY hormones generation today.... ^=^

STAY

"STAY" --- By Rihanna

All along it was a fever
A cold sweat hot-headed believer
I threw my hands in the air, said show me something
He said, if you dare come a little closer

Round and around and around and around we go

Ohhh ohhh now tell me now tell me now tell me now you know

Not really sure how to feel about it
Something in the way you move
Makes me feel like I can't live without you
It takes me all the way
I want you to stay

It's not much of a life you're living
It's not just something you take, it's given

Round and around and around and around we go
Ohhh now tell me now tell me now tell me now you know

Not really sure how to feel about it
Something in the way you move
Makes me feel like I can't live without you
It takes me all the way
I want you to stay

Oohh the reason I hold on
Oohh cause I need this hole gone
Funny you're the broken one but I'm the only one who needed saving
Cause whenever you see the light it's hard to know which one of us is caving

Not really sure how to feel about it
Something in the way you move
Makes me feel like I can't live without you
It takes me all the way
I want you to stay... Stay...
I want you to stay, ooooooooooooooooh
