Been out for a month, I was busy dealing with university and planning my christmas trips. No christmas photos bcoz the highstreets were too crowded and the weather was gloomy everywhere I went.

Don't Know Much

Recently I came across a beautiful classic piece in Levi's 501 Hits album. I thought I would like to share with you ppl, I modified the lyrics a bit to match what i've been going through this semester. Enjoy !

Don’t know much about MCME
Don’t know much about ISGE
Don’t know much about textbook
Don’t know much about subjects I took

But I do know that I love you
And I know that if you love me too
What a wonderful world this would be

Don’t know much about geography
Don’t know much about trigonometry
Don’t know much about algebra
Don’t know what a slide rule is for

But I do know one and one is two
And if this one could be with you
What a wonderful world this could be

Now I don’t claim to be an A student
But I’m trying to be
For maybe by being an A student
Baby, I can win your love for me.

*MCME = Management Compentencies in a Multicultural Environment
*ISGE = Information Strategy for a Global Economy
