Long time no see!

Went for my secondary school class 4E5 reunion yesterday.. oh how much everyone has changed!

The person who changed the most is definitely Viknesh! He has lost 27kg OMG!! I'm so gonna blog about his before and after once I get the photos!

Time has past really quickly! It's about 6-7 years of friendship!

I'm also gonna dig out my secondary school photos and then blog about the before/after of everyone! (if there is any significant changes)

We're so gonna meetup next Friday again (I hope it doesn't get cancelled)

I wish Viknesh all the best in his studies in Australia! Good luck in his future endeavours and say 'hello' to independence!!

稻香

「稻 香」 詞:周杰倫 曲:周杰倫

對這個世界如果你有太多的抱怨
We have too many complaints in this world
跌倒了就不敢繼續往前走
When we fall, we don't dare to move forward
為什麼人要這麼的脆弱 墮落
Why is human so vulnerable to degradation?
請你打開電視看看
Please turn on the TV to see
多少人為生命在努力勇敢的走下去
Many people struggling to live
我們是不是該知足
Should we learn how to be contented?
珍惜一切 就算沒有擁有
Learn to treasure everything even if we can't have it

還記得你說家是唯一的城堡 隨著稻香河流繼續奔跑
You will recall that the family is the only castle as the river continues to run
微微笑 小時候的夢我知道
Smile, I know my childhood dream
不要哭讓螢火蟲帶著你逃跑 鄉間的歌謠永遠的依靠
Don't cry, let the firefly escape with you, the village's folk song is your support
回家吧 回到最初的美好
Go home, go back to your best memories

不要這麼容易就想放棄 就像我說的
Do not give up so easily like I said
追不到的夢想 換個夢不就得了
If you fail to pursue your dream, why not change another dream?
為自己的人生鮮艷上色 先把愛塗上喜歡的顏色
Let the colors brighten your life, let love paint your favourite color
笑一個吧 功成名就不是目的
Smile, getting famous is not your purpose in life

讓自己快樂快樂這才叫做意義
Be happy, this is the meaning of life
童年的紙飛機 現在終於飛回我手裡
The paper aeroplane from my childhood, has returned on my palm
所謂的那快樂 赤腳在田裡追蜻蜓追到累了
Such happiness, chasing dragonflies barefooted around the field
偷摘水果被蜜蜂給叮到怕了 誰在偷笑呢
Getting stung by bees while picking fruits
我靠著稻草人吹著風唱著歌睡著了
I leaned against the scarecrow, sang until I'm tired, and fell asleep
哦 哦 午後吉它在蟲鳴中更清脆
The guitar sounds clearer in the afternoon, amidst the chirping of bugs
哦 哦 陽光灑在路上就不怕心碎
Don't be afraid of being sad, the rays of the sun will always shine your way
珍惜一切 就算沒有擁有
Learn to treasure everything even if we can't have it

還記得你說家是唯一的城堡 隨著稻香河流繼續奔跑
You will recall that the family is the only castle as the river continues to run
微微笑 小時候的夢我知道
Smile, I know my childhood dream
不要哭讓螢火蟲帶著你逃跑 鄉間的歌謠永遠的依靠
Don't cry, let the firefly escape with you, the village's folk song is your support
回家吧 回到最初的美好
Go home, go back to your best memories

魔杰座



Jay Chou's new album is finally expected to be released on 9th October!!
Pre-order starts 24th September :)

Usually I pre-order from Popular's CD Rama but last year I heard from Rosalind that Music Junction (if I didn't remember wrongly) has pre-orders for the Taiwan's version filled with more goodies! But of cos, it comes with a hefty price..

His 9th album is titled <魔杰座> and his hit song <稻香> would be having it's premiere broadcast in Asia on 22th September at 10am!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

And his album photos are damn cool can!?




LOVE JAY CHOU!!

Attended my cousin's wedding last Saturday. Personally, I liked the wedding video. Instead of the usual slideshow-of-photos-from-start-of-relationship-till-wedding-day, my cousin had gotten someone to do a flash animation for her! It showed how she and her husband met, how she had initially rejected being her husband's girlfriend, to gradually missing him and accepting him, and then the proposal part.

The proposal part was unromantic though =X Imagine you and your boyfriend were on the way home in a car, and then he just pop the question?????????????????????????

I'll scold my boyfriend upside down!!!!!! No roses, no dinner, no romantic ideas etc... hmph!!

But the flash animation was cute, maybe I'll get Pixar to do a 3D animation for mine in future LOL!!!! ($$$$$$$)

Also, I realised most of the weddings I attended, played the song "From this Moment" by Shania Twain when the couple marched in. So common leh!! Must be different..

Attending Jiexiang's cousin's wedding tomorrow. Shall see if there is any interesting thing!

Wish me good luck!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Lotus



Watched 12 Lotus last last weekend (overdue post again). I must say, the film is very very well made. I loved the unexpected twist (actually not much but it really amazed me how everything connects) and the costumes that were used.

It's a story about a girl, named Lotus, who wanted to sing the Hokkien song "12 Lotus". The movie protrayed how Lotus eventually "lived through" the song. It's a very dark movie, yet it impacts me so much I kept thinking why Lotus had such a fate, kept thinking up till the next day.

I read Yahoo! Movies reviews, the reviewers either liked it or hated it. (I belong to the former)

There is an artistic touch in this show - maybe that's why some ppl cannot understand and hated it. But the depth of meaning that the director wants to imply is far stretching and purposeful.
- zingtan, Yahoo! Movies review

Totally agree! Jiexiang's aunts, mum and dad didn't like it, but the both of us find it nice. His mum said the first part of the movie is good, but the second part is very bad. I found it rather alright, except the "buy stones" part -_-;

So if you like dark tales, like artistic films, like plausible endings, or even like Royston Tan, you can watch this movie!
