Song of the Moment

Shot taken at Tokyo Tokyo. I will miss hanging out on a Saturday...



I have been searching for the lyrics of this song for the longest time, and now, I have found it...or actually Ami was the one who found it without effort.

So here goes:


Take This Love
by Sergio Mendes
album:
I know what you're thinking
Your eyes give you away
We've been talking all night long
And there's nothing left to say
It's a mutual emotion
Nothing's standing in the way

I've got this feelin' babe
That this was meant to be
You've been playing hard to get
I've waited patiently
It just keeps getting harder
There's a point of no return
'Cause the heat is in the moment
And the moment's in your hands

CHORUS
Take this love and let the night begin
(I want to give it all to you)
Time for you to show the way you feel
(You know how long I've waited)
I need a reason, a meaning in my life
So open up and take this love tonight

Too many wasted nights of hollow victories
But I know this time is diff'rent babe 'cause you mean so much to me
You're the answer to my question
And I need the answer now
'Cause the heat is in the moment
And the moment says it all

CHORUS
AD LIB
CHORUS

CHORUS 2:
Take this love and let the night begin
( I'll give it all to you!)
Time for you to show the way you feel
(You know how long I've waited!)
I need a reason, a meaning in my life
So open up and take this love...

Now, A word from the newest Weekend Rep...

I am currently here at work....Yup, it's a Sunday morning...early morning, so that means that I went to work on a Saturday night. Yes, you got that right...on a Saturday night! On a regular shift! (groan!) Yes, this is actually my first ever regular shift on a Saturday night. I am now a full pledged weekend rep. Hmp! Where did all those 2 years of loyal stay here at PS go? So much for seniority... I am actually at a new account right now...My third week tonight. It's a big leap for me since I left my comfort zone at Experian, where, I was living the very ideal life of an ATL ( as in NO calls twice a week, if you're lucky, you can go sometimes up to 4 times a week!), everyone looks up to you, everyone respects you and all... Then, out of craving for change, and due to peer influence ('tara na...sabay sabay tau mag ATP!'), I decided to join the bandwagon of ATP happy people and here I am, at a techy account, Earthlink, well, it's People PC actually, but techy nevertheless, and doing sales... Ha! Sales! Even though it's inbound sales, I never really imagined myself doing those sales pitches...but now I have to do it, everyday of my stay at here at PS. Thank goodness, even though I have to suffer retakes all throughout that entire training, (retake for the final exam and call certification), I can say I am doing good so far... My first QA is----- Tadah! 100% and so far, I was named top performer for the day last week! I deserve a pat on the back for that! Hehehe!

But that still does not change trhe fact that I am still a weekend rep...my restdays are thursdays and fridays. Thank goodness, I'll be on leave for the next 2 Saturdays... So that means, I just have to endure going to work on Sundays, but that's ok. I can live with that. I really thought when I woke up this morning that it was a Monday....but I really have to convince myself that I am going to work for Saturday shift, not Monday.... (drats!)

What did I do to desreve these breakouts on my face?????? One lesson to be learned..never ever, try a new product that is too good to be true..not all expensive products are right for your skin...sigh...hope this will all go away soon... I really can't take it!

I come to realize something (me and my neverending realizations), that I have to start going home....ALONE.

My Wonderwall in this Half-Life

I have to say..."Wow, can't believe it's already October....!"

This song suddenly crooned out of my headphones while I am here, spending my restday Thursday surfing the net... I also have another song that's playing on my mind right now.. both songs are old, but I still like it.
I'll just write more about my first week on the floor as a sales rep on my next entry... The field I dreaded the most before....Feeling a bit out of the blue right now, might be coming down with a cold, probably because of walking under the rain last Tuesday morning.... I really have to remember to bring an umbrella the next time..or maybe I should've accepted the offer for the underwear...(hehehe! 'll keep that to myself..)

"Wonderwall"

Today is gonna be the day
That they're gonna throw it back to you
By now you should've somehow
Realized what you gotta do
I don't believe that anybody
Feels the way I do about you now

Backbeat the word was on the street
That the fire in your heart is out
I'm sure you've heard it all before
But you never really had a doubt
I don't believe that anybody feels
The way I do about you now

And all the roads we have to walk along are winding
And all the lights that lead us there are blinding
There are many things that I would
Like to say to you
I don't know how

Because maybe
You're gonna be the one saves me?
And after all
You're my wonderwall

Today was gonna be the day
But they'll never throw it back to you
By now you should've somehow
Realized what you're not to do
I don't believe that anybody
Feels the way I do
About you now

And all the roads that lead to you were winding
And all the lights that light the way are blinding
There are many things that I would like to say to you
I don't know how

I said maybe
You're gonna be the one who saves me?
And after all
You're my wonderwall

I said maybe
You're gonna be the one who saves me?
And after an
You're my wonderwall

Said maybe
You're gonna be the one that saves me
You're gonna be the one that saves me
You're gonna be the one that saves me

Half-Life

I'm awake in the afternoon
I fell asleep in the living room
and it's one of those moments
when everything is so clear

before the truth goes back into hiding
I want to decide 'cause it's worth deciding
to work on finding something more than this fear

It takes so much out of me to pretend
tell me now, tell me how to make amends

maybe, I need to see the daylight
to leave behind this half-life
don't you see I'm breaking down

lately, something here don't feel right
this is just a half-life
is there really no escape?
no escape from time
of any kind

I keep trying to understand
this thing and that thing, my fellow man
I guess I'll let you know
when i figure it out

but I don't mind a few mysteries
they can stay that way it's fine by me
and you are another mystery i am missing

It takes so much out of me to pretend

maybe, I need to see the daylight
to leave behind this half-life
don't you see I'm breaking down

Lately, something here don't feel right
this is just a half-life
is there really no escape?
no escape from time
of any kind

come on lets fall in love
come on lets fall in love
come on lets fall in love
again

'cause lately something here don't feel right
this is just a half-life,
without you I am breaking down

wake me, let me see the daylight
save me from this half-life
let's you and I escape
escape from time

come on lets fall in love
come on lets fall in love
come on lets fall in love
again


I just realized, (for the nth time, I guess) that its so amazing how the feeling of just being inlove can really change your outlook in life.....it is a really delightful feeling!
