Don't You Forget About Me - Alexandra Potter


“What would you do if you have a second chance to love him again?” This is the main question in this book.

Tess is brokenhearted when Seb breaks up with her and can’t help blaming herself. If only she’d done things differently. If only she could make right all her regrets… But she can’t. It’s over. She has to forget about him. Drunk and upset on New Year’s Eve, she wishes she’d never met him.

But when she wakes up to discover this dream has come true, she realizes she has a chance to do it all over again. And, this time, to get it right…

Tess is happy with the second chance she got. With the help of her diary, she tries to make things right. Instead of making things right, she turns herself into someone else, the girl that Sebastian would love. She tries so hard to fit in, she is willing to do anything to keep Sebastian by her side, like watching the movie she hates, reading a boring book, wearing things she would never wear in the first place. What a great effort!

How the story ends?
All I can say is this story has a happy ending.

What I learn from this book?
I learn that when second chance arrives for you, it means you haven’t passed the test. The present of a second chance always bring happiness at first but you have to learn again, to find yourself again.

If someone ever asks me, what will I do if I have a second chance to repeat all over again with my ex? My answer will be: I would like to know him more as a friend, not as a lover. Actually, I don’t want a second chance. What has been done is done. All I have to do is to learn my lesson. Cherish the good memories and forget the bad memories. Life goes on.

Alexandra Potter is a good author. I love the way she describe her story. This book is an easy reading, entertaining, and enriching story. I recommend everyone to read this book. I love to thank, Blue Jasmine for giving me this book. Thank You! Perfect choice of book, as always!

Rolling In The Deep

I searched this song for sometimes and finally I got it. First time I heard it in a pub, this song was sang beautifully by the acoustic band that night. I asked around for the title and they gave me the wrong answer. Today when I went back to the office after lunch break, the radio played the song. Ah! I recognize the song immediately. This is the song... Hope you can understand why I like the song, study the lyric! Wish I could have the voice to sing it and the courage to do what the song tells me... LOL...

ROLLING IN THE DEEP
BY ADELE



There's a fire starting in my heart
Reaching a fever pitch, it's bringing me out the dark
Finally I can see you crystal clear
Go 'head and sell me out and I'll lay your ship [shit] bare
See how I leave with every piece of you
Don't underestimate the things that I will do

There's a fire starting in my heart
Reaching a fever pitch
And it's bringing me out the dark

The scars of your love remind me of us
They keep me thinking that we almost had it all
The scars of your love, they leave me breathless
I can't help feeling
We could have had it all
(You're gonna wish you never had met me)
Rolling in the deep
(Tears are gonna fall, rolling in the deep)
You had my heart inside of your hand
(You're gonna wish you never had met me)
And you played it, to the beat
(Tears are gonna fall, rolling in the deep)

Baby, I have no story to be told
But I've heard one on you
And I'm gonna make your head burn
Think of me in the depths of your despair
Make a home down there
As mine sure won't be shared

(You're gonna wish you never had met me)
The scars of your love remind me of us
(Tears are gonna fall, rolling in the deep)
They keep me thinking that we almost had it all
(You're gonna wish you never had met me)
The scars of your love, they leave me breathless
(Tears are gonna fall, rolling in the deep)
I can't help feeling
We could have had it all
(You're gonna wish you never had met me)
Rolling in the deep
(Tears are gonna fall, rolling in the deep)
You had my heart inside of your hand
(You're gonna wish you never had met me)
And you played it, to the beat
(Tears are gonna fall, rolling in the deep)
We could have had it all
Rolling in the deep
You had my heart inside of your hand
But you played it, with a beating

Throw your soul through every open door (woah)
Count your blessings to find what you look for (woah)
Turn my sorrow into treasured gold (woah)
You'll pay me back in kind and reap just what you sow (woah)
(You're gonna wish you never had met me)
We could have had it all
(Tears are gonna fall, rolling in the deep)
We could have had it all
(You're gonna wish you never had met me)
It all, it all, it all
(Tears are gonna fall, rolling in the deep)

We could have had it all
(You're gonna wish you never had met me)
Rolling in the deep
(Tears are gonna fall, rolling in the deep)
You had my heart inside of your hand
(You're gonna wish you never had met me)
And you played it to the beat
(Tears are gonna fall, rolling in the deep)

We could have had it all
(You're gonna wish you never had met me)
Rolling in the deep
(Tears are gonna fall, rolling in the deep)
You had my heart inside of your hand
(You're gonna wish you never had met me)

But you played it
You played it
You played it
You played it to the beat.
