Time for a change

My twin sister Dina and I always together since we were kids until now, we share almost a lot and everything and always going out together shopping or mall hopping, experimenting new things etc.... In short we are not just sisters but bestfriends... well of course we don't share all specially our love life's hehehe... Last 2004 She's married to a Canadian guy my brat bro-in law ... But even that we are still together, but last friday, they finally got the documents that they have been waiting for the last 3 years, the visa from the Canadian Embassy.... she's granted to go to Canada, and anytime soon she will leave us huhuhu, and have a new life there together with her hubby. At last the moment that they've been praying and waiting for is finally come true. Now I realized that we will never be the same as before, she will start her new life there and mine as well.... although I still have the chance to be together hopefully soon in Canada because my Tiger and her hubby are best of friends and they are just neighbors but its not the same as like before, like we share bed when we sleep or eat together, even taking a bath together hehe....And even taking control of my life sometimes hehe... Well I admit between the two of us she's more of the ate to me hehehehehe........ in short she's the bossy and matured type than I am. I will surely miss my sister but well... life must go on... It's time for me to change, to be mature. But I'm so glad that she's happy now, finally she will be with her husband soon. And I'm so glad that she found a very kind heart, brat but funny guy, my one and only brat bro-in law Terry. We are happy for both of you.. congratulations!!! finally.. you will be together as a family soon... I love you both and hopefully i will have cute nieces and nephews very very soon.....

A music to my eyes and fire to my soul

My tiger just gave me a nice poems that he really wrote it for me, he told me that he really meant what he said in his poems.... how sweet..... i feel like i'm melting hehe..... I just want to share it with you so here are the poems from my baby.....

If I could have just one wish,

I would wish to wake up everyday

to the sound of your breath on my neck,

the warmth of your lips on my cheek,

the touch of your fingers on my skin,

and the feel of your heart beating with mine...

Knowing that I could never find that feeling

with anyone other than you.

When I close my eyes I dream of you.

Can't sleep at night 'cause I wanna be with you.

Don't want to live, don't want to cry

Without you by my side.

When I go to sleep at night

I ask God to make my days bright.

I know he will do it - I know it is true.

Because he knows I only want to be with you.

I hear your voice inside my head.

I can imagine us together again.

I know it will happen - I know it is true;

Because I asked God if I can be with you.

I see you and I together again;

Holding hands and feeling the pain.

What a beautiful feeling - I wish it were true.

But I am only dreaming - dreaming of you.

If you could see inside my soul

see inside my heart

you would know how I long for you

whenever we're apart

Though with each new day, each sunrise

we can't know what's in store

there is one thing I know for sure

each day I love you more

I could search the whole world over

and this I know is true

I would never find another love

like the love I found with you

You are my heart, my soul, my treasure,

My today, my tomorrow, my forever,

My everything!
