~S.H.E - 你不会~

S.H.E - 你不会

第一次拥吻以前　我们找不到语言

但听见彼此灵魂多渴望永远

贴心后嘴角的甜　摩擦后眼角的咸

一起　懂爱和真爱的差别

你送的杯子里面　还装着温热感觉

你给的每个纪念都排在床沿

相机是牵手两年　围巾是东京五天

戒指　是又哭又笑的道歉

＊我不相信　你心中现在她最美

　你不会你不会你不会把我们的爱　踩碎

　我不相信　你口中会讲出后悔

　你不会你不会你不会不心疼

　我拒绝被看见的泪

当初被激烈反对　你安静却没妥协

对我更好来瓦解别人的偏见

我生气时总几天　我倔强口不择言

是你紧抱我到情绪沉淀

Repeat ＊

我不相信　走来的幸福在脱轨

你不会你不会你不会留残酷让我面对

我不相信　累积的回忆都损毁

你不会你不会你不会舍得我

流一滴像乞讨的泪

This bird is gone!!! Ohh no... This bird had been resting on the plant in front of my house for months... and now it's gone... :( I haven't seen this bird in weeks... Hmm... Is the bird okay? Did the bird found another plant to rest on? Or... Did the stray cat eat it? >.<" Touch wood!!! Anyway, hope it's okay... Maybe the bird is just "twittering" with its friends... hehe... :P

Recently I just started to use Twitter... It's a simple and user-friendly app to use... From now on, I'll post short updates, comments or quick sharing on Twitter... If I want to write a long update or share long stories, then only I would post my entries on this blog. (Well, most unlikely. Since I'm kinda lazy...)

My twitter link is http://twitter.com/myfavourites. Access through this link for all the tweets or just look at the left hand corner under Alien In Action section for the most recent tweets only...

Here is the poster for the 2007 movie Into the Wild...

Just a little info, Kristen Stewart (of Twilight fame) briefly appeared in the movie... Anyway, Emile Hirsch (the main character) is the scene-stealer in this movie. He gave a brilliant performance and the movie is great... Btw, those who dislike indie films might find the movie a tad bit boring...

~Roger, the GOAT!!!~

Congratulations to Roger for winning his 15th Grand Slam title... Yay! I hope he continues to win his 16th Grand Slam title in this year's US open!!! Anyway, watching Rog playing tennis is really inspiring to me. Determination, perseverance, elegance and pure genius are just some of the qualities that I can see and learn from him (although they are not easy to learn)... I love the way you responded by winning Roland Garros and Wimbledon, when people were writing you off after the Australian Open 09... Anyway, uni life starts soon (yet again)... i need to learn from Roger to be determined and be a hardworker... argh... but that's just so haaaard... I'm just too lazy...

Yay! Finally the French Open title is yours!!! I was pumping my fist and shouting 'Yes!' as i watched Soderling missed his service return. I was really delighted that Roger played his best and managed to win it quite comfortably despite of the 'minor incident' occurred during the 2nd set... I was shocked when I saw that man running in and got kinda worried for Roger as I don't know what he was doing to Roger (later found out that he was trying to put a hat on Federer)... crazy guy claimed to be Federer's fan... Well, I think a true fan would not do this kind of crazy act on him, trying to disrupt his momentum and the flow of his most important game...

Lucky enough, that incident was occurred during Soderling's service game, which Rogi lost the game to love... Imagine that incident happened during Rogi's service game, he might lose concentration and his service might get broken... Anyhow, Roger as a true champion managed to regain his composure and hold his next service game... Well, let's just hope this kind of incident wouldn't happen again...

Yay! Now that Roger Federer has completed a career Grand Slam and even ties with Pete Sampras' record of 14 Grand Slams, I (not only just me ^.^) hope he can go the extra mile and break the record with more Grand Slam wins! Hope he'll stay healthy and maintain his superb form and recapture the Wimbledon crown and the no. 1 spot!!! Hehe, kinda greedy here... but we know he'll do his best regardless of anything... Finally, all the best for Roger in the Wimbledon and the US Open!!!

p/s: And also all the best for me in my finals!!!

許茹芸 - 好聽

你說的話我都相信說得好聽說得甜蜜
你說的每一句我都相信

為了愛情失了聰明聽你的話閉上眼睛
這個夢多美麗讓它繼續

你說的話總那麼好聽你愛不愛我不能確定
也許你只把它當遊戲我卻愛得太用力

你說的話我都相信說得好聽說得甜蜜
你說的每一句我都相信

為了愛情失了聰明聽你的話閉上眼睛
這個夢多美麗讓它繼續

你說的話總那麼好聽你愛不愛我不能確定
也許你只把愛當遊戲我卻沒那麼聰明

你說的話總那麼好聽你愛不愛我不想確定
我會關掉你送的手機然後靜靜不去理

你說的話總那麼好聽你愛不愛我不想確定
我會關掉你送的手機然後靜靜輕輕是再也不去理

*听着这首歌，旋律优美简单，带点感伤。。。突然觉得歌词很真实。。。

1. Butterfly Effect
2. Fallin'
3. Harujaku Days
4. 습관 (Habit)
5. 쉿 (Shh)
6. 1분 1초 (1 Minute, 1 Second)
7. 1825 (Paper Cranes)

Omg! im really hooked onto Epik high's Lovescream mini album! i've been listening to their mini album since 30th of September and i can't seem to get enough of their music... Besides that, i'm still not over with their last album, Pieces, Part 1!!! In Lovescream, epik high made a complete changeover from their previous album which featured songs with heavy themes like heartbreak, suicide, social estrangement and politics. Lovescream is less darker and it features simple love stories with sounds of classical instruments in their unique style. Epik High is one group that NEVER disappoints me!!! Their albums are always an inspiration to me. ^^

Lovescream starts off with Butterfly Effect. It has a well written rap and i was mesmerized and moved by the beautiful piano playing... Listening to Butterfly Effect got me thinking... i really like the ending part in 3:58 where the piano playing was stopped and the drums continued to beat out rythms to end the song...

The title song, One Minute, One Second is really addictive... The song is about a failed relationship and how it can never be forgotten for even one moment. It's really catchy and similar to epik high's One. However, it's a softer song compared to One... The MV is amazing and creative too!

I really love Track 2 Fallin... Although it may not be as addictive as One Minute, One Second, but it's a catchy song... i can't help but to sing along I‘m fallin, fallin, fallin deeper and deeper...I’m fallin, fallin into you...

Track 7 1825 (Paper Crane) is a short piece of music accompanied with Mithra Jin's excellent rap. It's very easy on the ears and I was moved by the music instruments, esp. the piano...can't get enough of it cuz this song is toooo short...

*Hmmm... I always loved Epik High's songs which have a female singing in the background/chorus, such as One minute, One Second, Fallin from this album and Love Love Love, One, Oosan, Your Pieces, Fly, Spider Web, Paris from their previous albums...

Rating : 4.5/5
Recommended Songs: Butterfly Effect; Fallin; One Minute, One Second; 1825 (Paper Crane)

*Butterfly Effect*
~All causes and all effects.
No college shit necessary to acknowledge it.
Some call it love and some call it sex. opposites.
Call it what you want, but with one touch and you’re gone, so call in sick.
Human politics, from whispered hushes and distant crushes.
Mental fits breakin’ pencil tips and inkin’ brushes. Simple rushes.
God makes man, and this is the devil’s finishing touches.
From dukes to duchesses and kings to queens.
From dust to dust, this is the sinful theme.
The scene for crack fiends and gun-packin’ teens
High on vaccines, magazines and saccharine.
From dukes to duchesses and kings to queens.
From dust to dust, this is the sinful theme.

~An Old Friend~

2008-10-12T19:19:00.005+08:00

Yesterday, i met him for the 1st time in almost 2 years
i felt awkward, and i stuttered
i didn't know wut to say
Although he was my close friend during my school days
but it felt like there's a bridge pulling our friendship away.

Seeing him brought back old memories of
days when he accompanied me back to my home,
days when he gave me a treat! ^_^
days when i was annoyed by his 'surprised' tickling >.<"

As time passes by, we no longer chat like we used to
good friends are hard to find, harder to maintain
regretted for not cherishing a good friend like u
I used to think that,
if things turned out differently on that day,
will things ever be the same?
are we able to say hi when we meet again?

There's no turning back in life
but every memory of friendship shared,
even for a short time, is a treasure,
like sunshine and warmth in our lives,
like a cool breeze on a humid day,
like a shower of rain refreshing the earth....

~Painted Skin, Painted He<3rt~

2008-10-10T15:08:00.004+08:00

Yay!!! Finally finished my marketing assignment.... ^_^ get to relax for a bit...(but since when im not relaxing?) anyway, last week i went to watch a movie,

Painted Skin...... I strictly suggest this to anyone who wans 2 catch the movie… Please! Please! Please! Watch the mandarin version!!! Do not watch the Cantonese dubbed version… Why? Why? Well, personally I hate to watch dubbed movies. XD Btw, Painted Skin is not a horror movie!!! It’s more towards the romance, love, myth, supernatural genre. Personally, I think it’s a decent movie cuz it has a smooth flowing storyline. Some ppl may think that the characters in the movie have complicated relationships, but somehow, I managed to put them together. There are some entertaining scenes btw Donnie Yen and Sun Li. However, this is not a comedy, so don’t expect ‘laugh ur lungs out’ scenes. All the actors have done a great job in the movie, especially Zhou Xun, as the beautiful fox spirit. The movie is kinda touching but at times a lil draggy… but there's one thing that i couldn't stop thinking... what's up with the worms under the skin?! I thought she was supposed to be a fox spirit, not a worm spirit?! Anyway, i enjoyed watching this movie, since I have a soft spot for love, fantasy and myth movies Hahaha… :D

P/s: the white fox in the movie is really cute!!!

~Rowing the Boat of Fate~

2008-06-04T16:30:00.001+08:00

Exam is around the corner and im lacking motivation to do my revision... =( i've been slacking off... playing computer games, watching series and anime... and browsing interesting stories... and i came across this interesting greek myth about narcissism. narcissism means the trait of excessive self-love, based on self-image... which basically means vain... what interests me is that narcissism is derived from the Greek myth of Narcissus. Narcissus was a handsome Greek youth who rejected the love of the nymph Echo. As punishment, he was doomed to fall in love with his own reflection. Well he eventually dies of heartbreak hahaha and is carried to the Underworld where he is forever tormented by his own reflection in the river Styx. Unable to consummate his love, Narcissus pined away and changed into the flower that bears his name, tada! the narcissus!

Narcissus

oh well he must have seen this in his reflection...

Narcissus & his 'reflection' (original picture from Caravaggio)

hahaha well, i do hav some friends that are similar to Narcissus... let's just hope they're not going to fall into the same fate as Narcissus... :P

Recently i have been listening to an old song, Rie Fu - Life's Like a Boat. It's a lovely and soothing song.

"Nobody knows who I really am
I never felt this empty before
And if I ever need someone to come along
Who's gonna comfort me, and keep me strong

We are all rowing the boat of fate
The waves keep on comin' and we can't escape
But if we ever get lost on our way
The waves would guide you thru another day"
