The Opera Populaire

Was watching and listening to a DVD that has Shania Twain and other divas a few days ago. Her song, "U're Still e One" reminded me of my cousin's wedding, where e bride and groom took to e floor dancing to it. Hai...such an apt song. Here is why: both met in UK, where my cousin flew to study for her bachelor's. Of course, they fell in love, but my cousin might have thot it an impossible romance, becos they came from 2 sides of e world. But (Jenn is close to tears here liao), as the song says, they "made it", after a few yrs of communication oceans apart. They are still happily married, very much in love, an object of envy to many of us, married or unmarried alike. Here is part of e song lyric:


Looks like we made it
Look how far we've come, my baby
We might have took e long way
We knew we'd get there some day
They said, I'll bet
They'll neva make it
But just look at us holding on
We're still together, still going strong

Chorus:
U're still I run to
The one that I belong to
Still e one I want for life
U'r still e one that I love
e only I dream of
Still e one I kiss good night

Ain't nothing better
We beat e odds tog
I'm glad we din listen
Look at wat we would be missing
They said, I'll bet
They'll neva make it
But just look at us holding on
We r still tog, still going strong

Repeat Chorus.

Oh I'm so glad we made it
Look how far we've come, my baby.


Hai...now u see, why it's such an apt song for them. Sorry, actually I'm quite a romantic at heart. I actually nearly cried at their church wedding in England. Hmm...maybe during Shaoyun's wedding they may oso actually have some very personal song? Sekali I embarrass myself by starting to sob away at that hahahah. Anyway, I do wish both Shaoyun and my cousin many happy marital bliss.

PS: I can't remember whether I had actually taken my afternoon dosage of medicine? Argh nvm I'll just continue by taking e night one. So far I'm responding quite well to it. No vomitting or anything. Thank God! :)
