Lyrics: Unspoken by Hurts (Album: Happiness; 2010)
I think we’ll never change
and our hearts will always separate.
Forget about you
I’ll forget about you.
The things we never say
Are better often left alone.
Forget about you
I’ll forget about this time.
But it’s the same old situation
We made it through this far.
We watched the rockets kiss the sky.
I saw the flames burn out in your eyes.
Nothing that I do
Will ever be enough for you
Whatever I do, whatever I do.
Take me as I am
I’ll never be the other man.
Forget about you
I’ll forget about this time.
So won’t you save this conversation
And find a better time?
Don’t you ever understand
That if it hurts I’ll do whatever I can?
And if it’s set in motion
I’ll watch it all pass by.
And leave the rest unspoken
I’ll never change my mind.
Leave it unspoken, leave it unspoken,
Leave it unspoken, leave it unspoken now. (x4)
So just let me go
I won’t change my mind.
I’d rather be lonely
Than be by your side.
and nothing you say
Could save us this time.
I’d rather be lonely.
Today, I’m officially Hurts biggest fan! Awesome duo! Live forever, live your music forever! May someday I’ll meet them. God bless the duo!
Lyrics: Stay by Hurts (Album: Happiness; 2010)
Album: Happiness
My whole life waiting for the right time
To tell you how I feel.
Know I try to tell you that I need you.
Here I am without you.
I feel so lost but what can I do?
‘Cause I know this love seems real
But I don’t know how to feel.
We say goodbye in the pouring rain
And I break down as you walk away.
Stay, stay.
‘Cause all my life I felt this way
But I could never find the words to say
Stay, stay.
Alright, everything is alright
Since you came along
And before you
I had nowhere to run to
Nothing to hold on to
I came so close to giving it up.
And I wonder if you know
How it feels to let you go?
You say goodbye in the pouring rain
And I break down as you walk away.
Stay, stay.
‘Cause all my life I felt this way
But I could never find the words to say
Stay, stay.
So you change your mind
And say you’re mine.
Don’t leave tonight
Stay.
Say goodbye in the pouring rain
And I break down as you walk away.
Stay, stay.
‘Cause all my life I felt this way
But I could never find the words to say
Stay, stay.
Stay with me, stay with me,
Stay with me, stay with me,
Stay, stay, stay, stay with me.
Am I better off dead
Am I better off a quitter
They say I’m better off now
Than I ever was with her
As they take me to my local down the street
I’m smiling but I’m dying trying not to drag my feet
They say a few drinks will help you to forget her
But after one too many I know that I’m never
Only they can see where this is gonna end
But they all think I’m crazy but to me it’s perfect sense
And my mates are all there trying to calm me down
‘Cause I’m shouting your name all over town
I’m swearing if i go there now
I can change your mind turn it all around
And I know that I’m drunk but I’ll say the words
And she’ll listen this time even though they’re slurred
Dialed her number and confess to her
I’m still in love but all I heard was nothing
So I stumble there, along the railings and the fences
I know if I’m face to face that she’ll come to her senses
Every drunk step I take leads me to her door
If she sees how much I’m hurting
She’ll take me back for sure
And my mates are all there trying to calm me down
‘Cause I’m shouting your name all over town
I’m swearing if I go there now
I can change your mind turn it all around
And I know that I’m drunk but I’ll say the words
And she’ll listen this time even though they’re slurred
Dialed her number and confess to her
I’m still in love but all I heard was nothing
She said nothing
Oh I wanted words but all I heard was nothing
Oh I got nothing
Nothing
I got nothing
Nothing
Oh I wanted words but all I heard was nothing
Oh sometimes love is intoxicating
Oh you’re coming down your hands are shaking
When you realize there’s no one waiting
Am I better off dead
Am I better off a quitter
They say I’m better off now
Than I ever was with her
And my mates are all there trying to calm me down
‘Cause I’m shouting your name all over town
I’m swearing if I go there now
I can change your mind turn it all around
And I know that I’m drunk but I’ll say the words
And she’ll listen this time even though they’re slurred
Dialed her number and confess to her
I’m still in love but all I heard was nothing
She said nothing
Oh I wanted words but all I heard was nothing
Oh I got nothing
Nothing
I got nothing
Nothing
Oh I wanted words but all I heard was nothing
Oh I got nothing
I got nothing
I got nothing
In an interview last month Anthony McClaran, chief executive of the Universities and Colleges Admissions Service (Ucas):
“Yes, some universities may say we have vacancies on this course for overseas students but not for British or European Union students,” he said. “But it’s not that the overseas students are taking places away from British students. Universities have a cap imposed by the government on the number of British students they may take. If they exceed it, they suffer financial penalties. There is no such cap on overseas students. On one level I can understand that this situation is frustrating.”

UK education is one of the best market in Education Industries. Yes, one of the leading on this planet. It is frustrating to local (UK) scholar with eligible qualifications, yet unable to compete vacancies to enroll to universities versus the international students academically fairly. If you see this from British student perspective, it is extremely disheartening.
This education industry is for the country rather than helping the local directly. The university itself is in a state of irony, who will taught more foreign students whom eventually will leave UK in the end and return to their homeland with their built up intellectuality and skills. And these are the scholars they choose against their local scholars.
This is not wrong to say that, this is what happens when you turn education into a business. The people who run universities start thinking like businessmen. True, but not really true and their fault. As I mention earlier, this education industry is for the country.. and for the country it is indirectly for the people too. Barely an ideal, but safe for the country economy progression.
The Ministry (government) have set a cap. Universities are concern about the penalties from the Government, but why is it so serious? Well it comes down to International Fees; yes Money. Average for International fees may cost around £10, 300 or more, than average local fees cost around £3, 200 and more. Can you see the differences? It’s a huge assets and a huge profit if you just plain see the figure (You don’t need to use a calculator). Talk about University upgrade, Talk about University maintainability, Talk about building a new accommodation, Talk about the Tourism, how much foreign money coming to the country?? its all symbolize profits. and TAX! tell me about it!
A person spoke: “Given a cap on foreign student enrollment why are foreign EU countries applicants not classed as foreign. If this were done it would free up a few more places for domestic applicants who could perhaps be charged the same rate foreign ones are charged.”
A Respond Spoke:“I believe fees are now standardised between all EU states by law, so EU students pay the same as UK ones and can’t be ‘reclassified’ as overseas students.”
Now, put it like this, what will a university said if you offered to pay the same amount as a foreign student for your place. Would they take the local students?
As a foreign, it not them to blame.. Its like helping foreign to help British.. Its a win win situations. The only part which is in technically in a problem state is, there are not enough associate educators to teach the many of scholars, and not to forget the teaching and learning tools to accommodate everyone too.. Its just not enough for everyone.
That’s the reasons why these problem started. If Universities have all the necessaries resources on hands that could cater everyone, then there won’t be any limits. It just put a fair ease to all applicants, both local and foreigners. So don’t mock and knock foreign students, they are not to be blame, they are friendly people like me, *winks*.
Government and Universities need to overcome this disheartening, hopefully in 5-10 years. World population are growing fast, not just population, but brilliant and smart population. More Universities, Educators, Teaching/Learning Tools and Labs may need to be at par to accommodates with the population demands.
So birth control anyone? haha I know you love me XO XO
Thank god, that I’m gifted with a “believe” for myself that I could do things that I think I can do. In short it’s called the power of self-confident. Some may less be fortunate, for they do not acquire these skills; well that’s just what the norms people would say. It’s strange, how you get older you want to do what you think will be right for you, well technically with your own little mind voice called desire.
I never thought I would want to become a teacher in my teen eras, but hey being in this Education fields it feels GOOD! REALLY GOOD! I really don’t want to stop at a Diploma Level (in Primary Education); I wish tu pursue to other areas of Education too. Sport or Physical Education will be great, because as a man, its a natural to have this masculine interest in sports studies (very debatable: women do have strong interest in sports too, hehe); I also would love to take minor Management and Counselling in Education, or English but now, what I think I could empower my education, (after my 4 month of teaching practice at school) is, “I really want to further my studies in Early Childhood Education”.
Yes, you read it correctly; Walid or Alid wish to take ‘Early Childhood Education course somewhere on this earth’. After going through many things in your life, all the sudden you want to do this and that. Its weird but what the heck, life is too short not to get what we want right? Now, that I think that, I wish the degree in Early Childhood Education were still open at Universiti Brunei Darussalam. I’m aware of the next generation course availability at UBD. But it doesn’t suite me because I guess I’m not the next generation hehe. The changes happened because Changes are needed I guess for a good cause for our country’s benefits and the people. Seriously I’m no expert on this Political Education System. Well I’m not a pacifist either. Well if I were a pacifist, wouldn’t I be cute? :) haha
So back to my Early Childhood Education interest, seriously I like teaching kids, I’m totality falling in love with them. But Alhamdulilah, I’m not a pedophile, I’m straight and normal! HAHAA. I believed the reason is both my pre-school cooperative teachers at Sekolah Rendah Pintu Malim (during my teaching practise), inspires me very deeply about their work and how to handle the young children, with care and love. At this point, there’s time when the echo of the small voice will sung:
“I want this, I really want to do this, God where do I start? I believe I can be an early Childhood Educator, well an excellent one”.
It’s not easy to request things when you get older. When you were just a kid, you could easily select the toys you want and buy it. But now, no way man. It is so damn difficult, so much for asking or saying to the girl you adore “I love you”.
With all do respect, sometimes a thought of a comedian act or drama in my mind, on how I could simply knock the Minister of Education of Brunei ‘s door, and ask kindly if he could help me to pursuit my Education Dream. Yeah.. Thats illusionary wooon’t really work in reality. HAHA
At this point also, I start to regret and I wish I did well in my Education, especially during my A levels. But maybe if I didn’t mess up with my A levels, I might as well wouldn’t be in this education field. So its all about fate in the end. So right now what I can TRY and do to pursuit it is by:
1) Hopefully got posted to a great school, with great Administration, thus a good negotiation will be applicable if I could take the Pre-Class/school with the principal consents.
2) In 3-5 years, given the opportunity to continue my education, Integrated Master in Early Childhood at UBD. And hopefully given the Early Childhood Course. And not Integrated Master in other than English, ECE haha.
These are just hope. On the other hand, I wish I could get a miracle too; like to be send right now to do a Early Childhood Course, maybe a degree or even an HND level . Preferable overseas hehe. Yeah! I LOVE that to happen. I wish. I just need about BND$90,000+ for an average of HND level for tuition fees and life expenses. That will be enough to carry my dream flying. So Oprah Winfrey would you like to give me the Oprah scholarship, I’ll be an asset to your Oprah School. or Andy Baldwin (US Naval Officer, Doctor, Humanitarian, Ironman Triathlete) I’m definitely be an asset with your volunteering program, oyeah i like the Got Your Back Network, I wish I could be involved; seriously by that! it reminds me I’m not a US citizen. Toing~ Oyeah Baldwin like kids.. just like me HAHA. I know I get Prasan sometimes. Dear Baldwin, Go get a great wife, marry once and have kids, I’m sure you will definitely be a great father. But when that happen, don’t questions me about your time management. He have this bunch of schedule for people.. he need to get his own quality time for himself. On other words he need to rest.
Ok, I’m signing out.. “everyone have dreams, and this is mine, this is part of it, and I’m very dedicated for it.”
