lie with me and forget the world

i had one glass of margarita that was so well-mixed i didn't taste the tequila at all... and neither was the lime sour. it was a GOOD MARGARITA. especially when after just one glass, i find myself floaty and happy.

it was a GOOD MARGARITA.

then i had red wine.

so by the time i got to Paulaner Brahaus at Millenia Walk, my vision wasn't as sharp as it was a few hours earlier, especially since after my dumb eyes got infected too.

i saw this guy sitting at a table RIGHT IN FRONT OF ME. he had shoulder-length hair and well, he was handsome.

*blink blink* i blinked. Jonathan Leong?

*looks hard at him* well, after i scrutinised his face while trying to avoid being too obvious, (which was quite tough because he was RIGHT IN FRONT OF ME) i concluded, i'm wrong, that's not Jonathan. he looks handsomer than Jonathan.

went indoors. Fweedarth Vader came up to me and asked, "was that Jonathan outside?" with confidence, i said, "no lah! i thought he was too! but no!"

ok, fine. *grits teeth*

Wai Wai saboed me and dedicated Snow Patrol's "Chasing Cars" as a request to the band to sing for my birthday. for those who don't know, that's the song Jonathan sang at SI2006, and when asked by the judges why he sang so passionately, he said, "i'm thinking of somebody." *melts* and again during the finals that BLEW ME AWAY.

so band lady makes fun of me and says birthday girl has to go up on stage to sing. my ass, i will.

then she says, well, birthday girl should sing with Jonathan Leong because, yes, he sang that song... *bla bla blah* (refer to information above on Jon and "Chasing Cars")...

and here comes the clincher.

"Jonathan was just here. Yes, Jonathan Leong just left."

*whimpers* he was RIGHT IN FRONT OF ME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

*SCCREAMS!!!! SCCREEEAMS!!!!! SCCCREEEEEEEEEEAAAMSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!*

*cries*

*flashback to SI Finals* Jonathan stepped up on stage and crooned in his silky, low and somewhat melancholic (pensive? *bitter laugh*) voice:

"We'll do it all, everything, on our own,
we don't need anything, or anyone,
if I lay here, if I just lay here,
would you lie with me and just forget the world?"

and on he went... and then when it came to the part of the song where the bass gets turned up, it came out strong, blasting through the speakers, live to 9,000 people, with mini-fireworks (what are THEY called?) shooting sparks up in one row behind him as he lost himself in the song and i lost myself in the rhythm and dance as best i can, seated. :|

euphoria. a surge of pure, untainted adrenaline coursing through my blood. the joy, the ecstasy... PURE, ADDICTIVE EUPHORIA.

he was right in front of me... *sigh*

yes, Jonathan, i would lie with you and just forget the world.

and you too, potato.
and you, Blue Cap.
and The Apostle.
well, yes, would any of you lie with me and just forget the world?

*grins* guess not.

i'll lie by myself then and i'm already forgetting the world every now and then.
