Been quite some time since I last blogged.

Oh well...school has started and laa-dee-dah.
I've been trying to change my sleeping and eating habits now.
Not to forget cutting down the hours I spend on the computer too.

Changing my sleeping habits really works.
I can now officially go to school without complaining "I'm sooo tired." as much.
Of course there are still times when I nap during class breaks...
But oh well...that's a different story.

Taking 5 modules is really not as easy as I thought it would be.
Not to mention that I still have my japanese class and some other commitments.
But I'm trying my best to look at things in a positive way.

Of course there'll be times when I feel like complaining (as usual).
But heyyy!!! I remembered that someone has volunteered to be my "trashcan" for the whole of this year. (:

I will be fine. (:






"思い出してみて 絶望を感じたら
君が諦めようとしてる今日って日は
どこかの誰かが諦めたくなかった
明日なんだってこととその手を
僕が強く強く握っているってことを"

"Try to remember, if you’re in despair
On this day when you’ve decided to give up
Somewhere, someone didn’t want to give up
And remember that I am tightly, tightly
Holding your hand and the future"

First post in 2010!

Would like to wish everyone a happy new year!
あけましておめでとう! (:

I must say that I have learnt alot in 2009.
And now, as usual, it's time to review my resolutions for 2009.


1. Study Hard

Definitely done. I've studied like I've never ever studied before.
I've studied so hard that people in school thinks that I'm a mugger.
This is a breakthrough you know..lol


2. Start learning Japanese

Hell yea...me and val finally got our ass down to Bunka and registered for the Japanese class...More Japanese classes awaiting in the future..lol


3. Keep in contact with old friends

Kinda done..had meetups with 0405 and dyb peeps...:D and of course my secondary school friends...wow..I should have even more meetups though...


4. Go to Japan (?)

Oh well...this ws not fulfilled...but since I went to Hong Kong and Bangkok instead, I guess it can be a replacement? haha! :D More trips in 2010 hopefully!


5. Catch my first ever concert

Sadly not fulfilled. The rumor of Arashi coming to Singapore/Malaysia was obviously not true. And since I want to keep my virgin concert for a Japanese artiste/band...I guess I'll have to wait...


6. DYB Zoo Trip

FINALLY FINALLY FULFILLED.
It was great. And lots of people turned up.
But of course, there are always people who can't make it (or perhaps they just didn't want to be there)



NOW!
My resolutions for this year:

1. Study hard

This will continue to be a must-have in my resolution till the day I graduate. There were a few times I got so overwhelmed by what's happening around in school that I've forgotten my dreams/goals. It made me feel lost. But thank goodness my dreams/goals are always here with me. It will always motivate me. And I will never stop trying.


2. Apply to go to UB

I really want to make this true. I don't want to be just talking about this but not doing anything to fulfill it. This is why I really must work hard for the upcoming semester and then apply to go to UB.


3. Continue learning Japanese

DUH! :D


4. More overseas trips!

I want to travel around the world more. :D
It's nice to be traveling with my sis. And not to mention no parents..hehehehehe :D:D


5. 10th year anniversary with secondary school best friend (:

Yes! I'm going to celebrate the 10th year anniversary with my secondary school best friend! It's nice to know that I still have someone supporting me and listening to my rants when I needed it most. (:



This are the resolutions I have for this year. And I need to continue reminding myself to move on in life. And never look back.

I can already foresee a year filled with activities, new memories and of course, more fan-girling to keep me happy (:


"Scars left behind will become part of a memory.
And these memories are going to push me closer to my dreams!"

I officially declare this my favorite design among the 3 designs I had tried so far.

And now....JPOP AZ XD
I really love this song because I like the lyrics.

About how a guy wants to say "I love you".
But it all turns into a code that looks/sounds like
『☆#%◎X…』. :D

----------------------------------------------------------------

C: Code by Nishikido Ryo (Code - 錦戸亮)




今僕より一つ二つ先を進んでた 君の証拠が
浮彫りになってく 沈黙破ってくれるから
違う誰かの話で ゲラゲラ盛り上がってるフリしてる
でも その笑顔まだ見てタイから 言葉呑み込む

『☆#%◎X…』


今以上を欲しがる僕は 世間知らずなガキですか?
求めるよりも与えろと 諭すのですか?
永遠なんて無いよと 牽制してもいい
でも 僕はね 光ってみたい共に 例え一瞬だけでも

『☆#%◎X…』


君を彩る全ての要素を 僕が守ってみせよう
何があっても傍にいよう
君が悲しむ全ての要素は 僕が奪うから
もう少しだけ 愛を 愛を 愛を

溢れ出す言葉 思いきって言った「アイシテル…」の筈が
脳からの指令を又 無意識に 僕だけの暗号に変えて

『☆#%◎X…』


君に胸張って この想い届けられる日は来るかな?
誰かに誇れる 僕でいられるかな?
君がいるのなら 何だって叶えられる そんな気がするから
届けるね 愛を 愛を

君を彩る全ての要素を 僕が守ってみせよう
何があっても傍にいよう
君が悲しむ全ての要素は 僕が奪うから
ありったけの 愛を 愛を 愛を


『☆#%◎X…』


Translation:

The proof of you advancing
one or two steps further than me
Has been etched like an embossed carving
which has broken the silence
I see you laughing loudly at someone else's jokes
as if you're enjoying yourself,
but it's all an act
But because I want to see your smile,
I swallow my words down

「☆#%◎※...」

For me who wants more than what I have now
Am I like a kid
who knows nothing about the world?
Am I being admonished for waiting
for something to be given to me
rather than pursuing it for myself?
It's fine even if there's a constraint
such as "there is no such thing as 'eternity'"
I'd still want the both of us to shine
Even if it's only for an instant

「☆#%◎※...」

I'll show you that I can protect
all the elements that make you you
No matter what happens, I'll be by your side
I'll snatch all the elements
of your sadness away
So believe a little bit more in love
In love, in love

The overflowing words that I boldly said
Should have been "I love you"
But once again the instructions
from my brain unconsciously
Turned it into a code
that is mine and mine alone

「☆#%◎※...」

If I wear my feelings upon my sleeve
Will there be a day when
these feelings will reach you?
Will I be someone that you can boast
about to someone else?
Because you're here
It feels as though anything can come true
So my love will reach you won't it?
My love will...

I'll show you that I can protect
all the elements that make you you
No matter what happens, I'll be by your side
I'll snatch all the elements
of your sadness away
With all the love [that I have]
All the love I have

「☆#%◎※...」

Just some of the things I do when I'm bored.
It's back to school soon ):
And then I won't have time to do things like this....

1.) Polyvore.com. Pretty fun to make a scrape-book-like-picture.




This is inspired by Ayumi Hamasaki.



And this is inspired by Audrey Hepburn.


2.) Nail art. Still not too good at it. :P



My nails before I went to HK.



And my nails now...

It's been days since i watched my last JDRAMA omg...
My finger is so tempted to click on that "dramas" folder..oh nosss!!!

And this is such a wrong time to be fangirling over harry potter, BSB and tons of other japanese artistes too.. *faints*

Hopefully after the draft is done I will have more free time...
But I doubt so since finals will be in like 2 weeks after. OMG

I'm so used to slacking.

Another japanese song that starts with B that is not so angsty and motivates me to do what I'm supposed to do. :):):)

I'm so going to achieve my dreams. Just wait and see. :D

B: Bokurashiku by Tegomass (僕らしく - テゴマス)



庭の隙間に 落ちたった根
光を浴びて 芽を出した
空に向かって まっすぐに
疑うこともせず

あぁ 僕なんて 
悩んでうつむいている
分からない 歩けない
そんな時こそ

さあ 顔を上げて僕らしく
負けそうな夜だって
光を胸に
さあ 顔を上げて 僕らしく
何度でも立ち上がる 
を胸に
未来へ

風に吹かれ 倒れても
根を張り起き上がる

あぁ 僕なんて
つまずいてくじけている
分からない 歩けない
そんな時こそ

さあ 顔を上げて僕らしく
負けそうな夜だって
光を胸に
さあ 顔を上げて 僕らしく
何度でも立ち上がる 
強さを胸に
未来へ

両手広げて まだ見ぬ世界に夢を馳せるのさ

さあ 顔を上げよ 僕らしく
何度でも立ち上がる 
強さを胸に
明日も

さあ 僕らしく



Translation:

In an opening in a garden, a seed fell
As light poured upon it, it began to bud
It gradually grew towards the sky
Despite its hesitation

Ah, And yet
I look down when I'm unsure
I'm confused, I can't walk on
Even during those times

I raise my head and be myself
Even at night when I'm defeated
There's a light in my heart
I raise my head and be myself
With a strength in my heart
that helps me stand again and again
and move on towards the future

Even if the wind beats upon it
Its roots spread out and it continues to grow

Ah, and yet
I always stumble and fail
I'm confused, I can't walk on
Even during those times

I raise my head and be myself
Even at night when I'm defeated
There's a light in my heart
I raise my head and be myself
With a strength in my heart
that helps me stand again and again
and move on towards the future

I spread out both my hands and a dream runs on of a world yet unseen

I raise my head and be myself
With a strength in my heart
that helps me stand again and again
Tomorrow, again

I'll be myself

Gossip. What is it?


“It’s a social skill, not a character flaw,” says Frank McAndrew a professor of psychology at Knox College in Galesburg, Ill. “It’s only when you don’t do it well that you get into trouble.”

Why.  
Because my mum cannot handle stress effectively.
Because my mum likes to let her stress out on us.
Because my mum has too many things to do.

That is why we get scolded when she can't handle her stress.
That is why we can only accept the criticisms she made on us even if it made us feel useless.
That is why her workload should be lessen. Especially religious work.


Because her life probably revolves around herself more than us.
Or perhaps that is how it seems to be anyway.

Maybe she think she understands us very well.
But no. Hell no.

(How's my revision going?)
She don't know any shit.
She don't understand how tired I'm feeling.
She don't understand how stressed I'm feeling.

(Am I still feeling unwell?)
She don't know any shit as well.
She don't understand how it's been for me and my sis.
She don't understand that we're feeling worried cause of the bites.

(When's my birthday?)
She knows?
12 November MY FOOT!
She don't even remember when I'm freaking born.

What's my favourite food?
Who's my favourite singer?
What's my aim in life?
What's my hobby?
What troubles have I been facing?

She probably knows nothing.


Ironic huh?
My mum is a teacher.
A teacher who understands all of her students.
A teacher who her students admires.
A teacher who everyone sees as friendly and nice.

Thanks mom.
Thanks for making me feel useless.
Thanks for making me breakdown 2 times in a week.
Thanks for making me wish that I can go crazy.
Thanks for providing me all my needs.
...
...
All but one.


My emotional needs.

---------------------------------------------------------

Thank goodness I have a sister.
Thanks for calming me down.
Thanks for being here with me.
Thanks for standing up for me.
Thanks for being my company. (:

The best sister a girl could ever have.

---------------------------------------------------------

NOTE:

If any DYB teachers or fellow temple mates sees this.
Please
please please lighten her workload by like 1000000000000000000000000 x a million times. She can't handle the stress even if she says she can.
