Tag-athon Part One

Ipohmom tagged me over a month ago (sorry for the delay!). I found this tag quite difficult to do.

a.I was involved in a pretty nasty accident back in 2003.
b.When asked for my parents phone number, I said “It’s too late at night, don’t want to disturb them, call tomorrow morning lah..” I didn’t know how bad my condition was.
c.I got multiple lacerations, fractured pelvic (can’t remember which side now) and had to use a wheelchair for over a month.

I Finally Found Someone – Barbra Streisand & Bryan Adams

I finally found someone
That knocks me off my feet
I finally found the one
That makes me feel complete
It started over coffee
We started out as friends
It's funny how from simple things
The best things begin

This time is different
And it's all because of you
It's better than it's ever been
'Cause we can talk it though
My favourite line was
"Can I call you sometime"
It's all you had to say
To take my breath away

This is it, oh I finally found someone
Someone to share my life
I finally found the one
To be with every night
'Cause whatever I do
It's just got to be you
My life has just begun
I finally found someone

Did I keep you waiting? I didn't mind
I apologise, baby that's fine
I would wait forever just to know you were mine

You know I love your hair
Are you sure it looks right?
I love what you wear
Isn't it too tight?
You're exceptional
I can't wait for the rest of my life

This is it, oh I finally found someone
Someone to share my life
I finally found the one
To be with every night
'Cause whatever I do
It's just got to be you
My life has just begun
I finally found someone
And whatever I do
It's just got to be you
My life has just begun
I finally found someone
