YAY finally managed to convince my parents to get a new digital camera XD After years of persuasion...I OWN A DIGICAM!
Granted it's nothing fancy, just a regular RM799 canon camera, but it's better than nothing.
Again...YAY! Now, for a new handphone! I actually have enough money to get a new one myself, but hey, it's kinda pricey for an unemployed almost-college student like me, so I'll just depend on my parents' money while I still can :P
On another note, I'm getting addicted to Jojo's 'Beautiful Girls. Somehow I prefer her version over Sean Kingston's. His voice is just...freaky to me Too accented, it doesn't sound very natural. Some may say that Jojo's reply is kinda mean, but what the heck - it's just a song!

Reminiscence
For some funny reason, last night I suddenly remembered the songs we used to sing in our primary school choior XD With my usually lousy memory, you'd think that I've forgotten all the songs! But strangely enough, I did remember, not just the tune but also the lyrics. OK not the complete lyrics, but a few verses at least =P So I came home, and searched for the lyrics. Believe it or not I still have some of the music sheets to the songs O_o
Here's one that I found at the bottom of my long-forgotten piano chair - the song Katak Lompat XD
Lompat si katak lompat
Lompatlah tinggi tinggi
Cepatlah adik cepat
Cepatlah bangun pagi pagi
Cepatlah adik cepat
Lompatlah tinggi tinggi
Cepatlah adik cepat
Cepatlah bangun pagi pagi
Kalau adik, malas lagi
Malas bangun pagi
Lalalalalalala
Lalalalalalala
Nanti kita rugi
OK I can't stop laughing while typing this!!
And then there are two other English ones, some stupid sounding song about a bird, and another called Today.
These two are for u Trix XD
Una Paloma Blanca
When the sun shines on the mountain
And the night is on the run
It's a new day
It's a new way
And I fly up to the sun
I can feel the morning sunlight
I can smell the new-mown hay
I can hear God's voice is calling
For my golden sky light way
Una paloma blanca
I'm just a bird in the sky
Una paloma blanca
Over the mountains I fly
No one can take my freedom away
Today
Well I'll be a dandy and I'll be a rover
You'll know who I am by the songs that I sing.
I'll feast at your table, I'll sleep in your clover
Who cares what tomorrow may bring?
I can't be contented with yesterday's glory
I can't live on promises winter to spring.
Today is my moment and now is my story
I'll laugh and I'll cry and I'll sing.
Today while the blossoms still cling to the vines
I'll taste your strawberries, I'll drink your sweet wines.
A million tomorrows shall all pass away
Ere I forget all the joys that are mine today.
OK there's actually more to these songs, but we did not sing the entire song, as I've just realized. Right. Reminiscing about choir songs.

A Little Too Emotional
I finally finished watching Heart of Greed today! Very intricate plot indeed, with some of the most horrible characters I've ever seen, in other words Sheung Joi Tak and Wong Sau Kam! Oh and Jackie's family members - totally unrelated to everything that had happened, and yet so kaypo! Greedy, manipulative, cheating, lying bastards they are. I swear, if I ever encounter people like that in real life, I'll strangle them!
On the other hand, the relationship of Alfred Cheng Leung and Sheung Joi Sum is just...heartbreaking. I was crying my eyes out when the accident happened, it was just so so sad! And that was the very moment that she forgave him too...I won't go into details as I might spoil those who haven't watched the show but plan to. It's just so so sad. I can't stop listening to Vincent~Starry Starry Night and My Love Will Get You Home, which were their songs.
Vincent
Starry, starry night.
Paint your palette blue and grey,
Look out on a summer’s day,
With eyes that know the darkness in my soul.
Shadows on the hills,
Sketch the trees and the daffodils,
Catch the breeze and the winter chills,
In colors on the snowy linen land.
Now I understand what you tried to say to me,
How you suffered for your sanity,
How you tried to set them free.
They would not listen, they did not know how.
Perhaps they’ll listen now.
Starry, starry night.
Flaming flowers that brightly blaze,
Swirling clouds in violet haze,
Reflect in Vincent’s eyes of china blue.
Colors changing hue, morning field of amber grain,
Weathered faces lined in pain,
Are soothed beneath the artist’s loving hand.
Now I understand what you tried to say to me,
How you suffered for your sanity,
How you tried to set them free.
They would not listen, they did not know how.
Perhaps they’ll listen now.
For they could not love you,
But still your love was true.
And when no hope was left in sight
On that starry, starry night,
You took your life, as lovers often do.
But I could have told you, Vincent,
This world was never meant for one
As beautiful as you.
Starry, starry night.
Portraits hung in empty halls,
Frameless head on nameless walls,
With eyes that watch the world and can’t forget.
Like the strangers that you’ve met,
The ragged men in the ragged clothes,
The silver thorn of bloody rose,
Lie crushed and broken on the virgin snow.
Now I think I know what you tried to say to me,
How you suffered for your sanity,
How you tried to set them free.
They would not listen, they’re not listening still.
Perhaps they never will…
My Love Will Get You Home
If you wander off too far, my love will get you home.
If you follow the wrong star, my love will get you home.
If you ever find yourself, lost and all alone,
get back on your feet and think of me, my love will get you home.
Boy, my love will get you home.
If the bright lights blinds your eyes, my love will get you home.
If your troubles break your stride, my love will get you home.
If you ever find yourself, lost and all alone,
get back on your feet and think of me, my love will get you home.
Boy, my love will get you home.
If you ever feel ashame, my love will get you home.
If its only you to blame, my love will get you home.
If you ever find yourself, lost and all alone,
get back on your feet and think of me, my love will get you home.
Boy, my love will get you home.
Love the series, and love the songs too, including the theme song by Susanna Kwan.
And Raymond Lam and Moses Chan are starting to really grow on me =D

Perfectly Random #1
Right, I know this is really random but I've noticed something weird about the way I blog - it seems to be completely devoid of any sense of humour or...or any emotion at all. I sound like I'm typing a newspaper article for heaven's sake! Blogs are suppose to be for you to vent your feelings and thoughts right? But I don't seem to be able to do that :P I blog like I'm writing an essay for exams or something. Lol. That makes me realize something; I'm more suitable to write non-fiction/facts/exam essays =.=" rather than fiction. Why? Because of the completely dry and inexpressive manner I deliver my sentences. Maybe I'll be a good reporter of events then...? Hah. Right now I'm not sure why I decided to blog about this either....
Something In Me Was Dying - Keane
Something in me was dying
And my heart was heavy as stone
Hard as i was trying
I never could find, find my way home
And your voice came out of nowhere
Be my friend and give me your hand
Let's take off together
And then we can live wherever we land
Something in me was broken
And my thoughts were bitter and ill
My world was blown open
I couldn’t see and i couldn’t feel
You said be yourself and think of me
And you'll know there's nothing to fear
Let's make plans together
It's time to move on and get out of here
Girl i need you
Don’t know what I would do
You will see the story through
It's a cruel world
And I need somewhere to hide
But time goes by
And your still on my side
Something in me was thinking
Cuz my heart was heavy as stone
I gave up, was thinking
I never would find, find my way home
And your voice came out of nowhere
Be my friend and give me your hand
Let's take off together
And then we can live wherever we land
Girl i need you
Don’t know what i would do
Will you see the story through
It's a cruel world
And i need somewhere to hide
The time goes by and your still on my side
Waiting
Searching
Turning over
Running round in circles
And i've worn myself out
Hoping that we'll always be together
yeah we'll always be together[4x]
I love this song by Keane.

Finally done with FFXII!
Yay I can't believe that I finally finished playing FFXII! I thought it'd take me years to finish it, like FFVII and FFVIII (which are not completed yet actually ^_^'). Woohoo, go me! That makes the second game I've ever completed on both PS1 and PS2, the first game being FFIX =P
Anyway, I really enjoyed the game, unlike many others who are not satisfied with it. It's not the best Final Fantasy game ever, but it's fun to play. Lots of quests to complete, which I did not actually finish, but heck, it's still fun. I've changed my mind about the battle system, which I initially rated 0/10. After completing the game, I'd say...a 2/10. Lol.
I actually found the story interesting and more realistic compared to the others because somehow it makes more sense than a nutcase who wants to be reunited with his 'mother', crazy sorceresses, a guy named Kuja and a twisted God. Loved the ending, the graphics are awesome! And it makes me want to play Fantasy XII: Revenant Wings >_< i want a nintendo DS! Hopefully they'll do something like KH's Chain of Memories on PS2 :D
Now on to the other uncompleted games...

This rating was determined based on the presence of the following words:
* hell (4x)

...WTF? XD XD I don't recall ever typing...fuck?
Anyway, that was fun :P

Pinkitivitis
Lately I've been buying a bunch of pink stuff...and I have no idea why! I don't even like the bloody color. In fact, I've spent time dissing that particular color with my friends...and so says my mum 'Aiyo the person who dun like pink why buy pink leh?'
Let's see...pink t-shirt...pink swimsuit...pink earrings...pink scrunchies...well, for the pink t-shirt, I actually wanted it in black or red, but sadly, not my size! So I had to settle for pink... O_______O I hope the list does not increase!
Darn. The A Levels results are out. I'm too terrified to go get it. According to Adeline I passed everything (albeit with terrible grades)....but I dare not believe it until I take a good, long look at the results list. Wish me luck people. Cos after results means I have to start thinking about the future! Which is something that I don't really wanna think about. If I do pass, I'll have to think about what to do next...work or study? If study then where? I don't really plan on remaining in IPG...if I fail however then I guess I have no choice but to remain there :(

Obsessing over this song *points above*
I'm too bored...so I'll be posting the lyrics to Flavor of Life here:
Flavor of Life by Utada Hikaru
*Arigatou, to kimi ni iwareru to
Nandaka setsunai
Sayounara no ato mo tokenu mahou
Awaku horo nigai
The flavor of life
Tomodachi demo koibito demo nai chuukanchiten de
Shuukaku no hi wo yumemiteru
Aoi FURUUTSU
Ato ippo ga fumi dase nai sei de
Jirettai no nan notte baby
*Repeat
Amai dake no sasoi monku
Ajikke no nai TOOKU
Sonna mono ni wa kyoumi wo sosorare nai
Omoi doori ni ika nai toki datte
Jinsei suteta mon ja nai tte
Doushita no? to kyuu ni kikareru to
Uun, nan demo nai
Sayounara no ato ni kieru egao
Watashi rashiku nai
Shinjitai to negaeba negau hodo
Nandaka setsunai
“Aishiteru yo” yori mo
“Daisuki” no hou ga
Kimi rashiin ja nai?
The flavor of life
Wasure kakete ita hito no kaori wo
Totsuzen omoidasu goro
Furi tsumoru yuki no shiro sa wo motto
Sunao ni yorokobitai yo
DAIAMONDO yori mo yawarakakute
Atataka na mirai
Te ni shitai yo
Kagiri aru jikan wo
Kimi to sugoshitai
*Repeat
LOL. Pointless, but whatever.
