The smooth surface,
Almost mirror like,
Watching it unknowingly,
I entered its flow,
Unconsciously submerged by it,
Fighting to grasp the sky,
Before being pulled down again,
Following it’s flow,
Unable to turn back,
The road is set;
I shall head to sea,
Can you see the future?
It’s unpredictable

i think this is my second post titled boredom.... lately i ve always been bored... don't feel like going out.. gone out too much in fact.. no money to spend.. ==' no mood...
not to say that i have nothing to do, i have, i can... 1. go study??? (me study... sigh maybe i should? horng yang just displayed the importance of knowing the statutes by heart the other day.. ergggh i don't like to study... if it's bio or chem that might be a different story haha),
2. play piano?? (currently guitar is out of the option cause the strings broke... waiting for ccy in the evening to fix...., but cause of my painful arm.. not really an option to play piano also..)
3. Read a book? when my shipment came back from the UK, i shipped quite a number of my sister's books back as well.. but no mood..
4. chat online?? but no one to chat too.... and no mood....
5. Blog? am doing that now, but once i am done.. what should i do???
what to do, what to do, that i like? no mood for anime, or dramas... read manga? but nothing interesting, and no new chapters...also no mood...
learn my japanese.. no mood, so cant concentrate (another reason why music is out..) sleep? can't sleep... after tonight cannot sleep...
eat? i jsut ate.. =='
sigh all boils back down to.. i have a lot of things which i can do.. clean my room perhaps.. but it all goes back down to the fact that i don't have the mood.. sigh....
maybe i should create a friend's test on truefriendtest.com hhaha...
i shall just wallow in my no mood.. moodiness by myself... sigh...
Ccy said i should press harder when playing the guitar to achieve a clearer sound, so i did, and my fingers hurt.. resting it...so decided to post this...
今日は本当に熱い です。。天の神様、雨お願いします。。 [kyou wa honto ni atsui desu.. Ten no kami sama, ame onegai shimasu] (Today is really hot, gods in the heavens please let it rain)
To help me with tuning the guitar, ccy found this video for me, and since i am more sensitive to the tone, this is a good one for me to use to tune.. ありがとう智君 :)
On another note, banzai for me for being able to tune the newly replaced 5th string with no help at all haha.. after that only i got the video.. :p
recently i ve been intersted in taking up dance classes.. especially hip hop because they give a full body work out. and since xian ai, was looking around for one as well.. and she knew i was looking around.. she called me along..
for this second round, it was in another centre, people there were nice and friendly, i think i could consider joining..
the dance moves were simpler and at least i could follow, but according to xian ai, it was actually usually more difficult?? hmm~ well important thing is i guess the environment, people there were friendly and helpful. haha shall discuss with my mom about it :p
this is in chinese and not japanese.. as i said in the previous post this is the link for the story ccy promised to translate...
for those who cannot read chinese.. if my chinese still serves me right, i think it reads as, yu he sui de gu se, meaning the story of the fish and water..
jsut got back from class, so shall try to read the chinese version on his blog later haha :p as for now.. it's dinner time :p
The shipment with my stuff finally arrived from the UK last week... :) yip yip hurray..
After almost 3 months....
wait.. i shipped it on the 11th of august.. and got it last week.. on the 17th.... or was it the 18th...of november.. so technically it isn't a week yet since my stuff came in.. but OMG.. took them that long.. took them 3 months and six days.... sigh... but oh well, it was considered cheap..... i guess.. =='
anyway... after procrastinating, not really procrastinating, but cause i was busy with classes and all.. so i finally have it fully unpacked now..
as i was unpacking, in a way, i felt like a small kid at christmas, seeing what i have in the box... and as i unpacked, memories came running back to me, as some things brought a smile on my face.. hahha
i sound like an old women, and i haven't even parted with those stuff that i shipped back for more than 3 months...
but seriously, now that i am back in malaysia, my time spent in the UK seems like a dream, i am slowly able to cross roads now by myself, though am still a little fearful sometimes.. and well.. i am falling back into the malaysian habits again..
it really felt like i've never left at all.. i sometimes feel like my memory is fake, like nothing of that sort ever really happened.. like i ve never experienced living in a foreign country on my own, never played in the snow, never went where i wanted, never had my freedom..
and then i had to stop myself to think, and to look around.. my room is surrounded with momentos of the past year, little souveniers from london, and europe.. now i know the importance of souveniers and pictures.. it's the proof to ourselves, so that we don't feel like all this is a lie..
but i don't understand why, i feel like everything is so fake.. i long quite a lot of times to go back, and i m sure it is obvious that i do, seeing that i compare this and that, but, in the end, i guess home is still the best place..
during my final months in london, my heart grew heavy, and i didn't, want to regret anything, i hate regretting, so i didn't want to regret leaving london, i therefore went to all the places that i wanted to go, but i still left a regret..
my only regret is leaving my friends behind, though we say it is a broadband world, how often do we chat online? the living person is still better than just staring at the screen..sigh, and it is so much more harder to catch them online.. because of the time difference, because everyone is busy...
but as i said to my sister, the day i left bridges hall; sometimes i feel that it is better if i never came to the UK, never met any of those people, never made friends with them, since leaving them now is so painful, but then again, for all the riches in the world, i would never have given up meeting them and being their friends, the fact that i can feel the pain and sadness of leaving them, means that i am still human, and that i have made some really good friends.
sometimes, things hurt us a lot, but at the same moment it teaches us to hope, from this pain i am learning to hope, though it hurts to be separated by friends who have become so close to you and also family, we hope to meet again someday..
i was once a person without hope, totally dry of hope, and almost without emotion, i only knew how to show my mask, the mask with the smiling face, i left no place for hope, i feel like i'm Aragon's mother.. (read lord of the rings..) where on her death bed she said, onen i-estel edain, u-chebin estel anim, meaning, i have gave hope to the Dunidien, i have kept no hope for myself..
but putting the point of being a mesochist aside, i think being hurt sometimes is good.. why do we fall down? to learn how to stand up again... there will be scars, and they may or may not fade over time, but at least with everything we learn something new, my time in UK was not a waste, i learnt more about myself there.. and for that i am grateful....
and ok.. moving on.. that sounded really angsty... and sorry to people who have been reading this for like the 3rd time? cause i keep editing as new things come to mind, and yes the reason why it seems like, i jumped here and there, is cause there was no intial planning on the writing for this, i just wrote as the thoughts came to my mind, and just added in stuff at places which i felt i missed out hahaha.. so anyway.. back to the point on my time in UK... i miss not only my friends but also.....
the weather there.. how many times have i said it haha, even before i set foot in England, i was always already complaining about the weather here haha.. but that is life.. i don't regret ever going there, and i don't regret coming back.. even if i did, it's pointless to regret things in life...
as the saying goes, there's no point crying over spilt milk, so yes berate yourself, call yourself a coward and that you are stupid, wallow in the self pity, but do your best to stop your regrets..
nothing changes unless we make it change... it's so hard to change and a lot of people get discouraged just at the mere thought of it, it takes a lot of will power to bring about changes.. those who lack the will power just continue on to wallow in their self pity and blame the world, and blame others..
ok.. before you guys start getting funny ideas.. i am not on the brink of suicide ok.. ??
the reason that i'm talking about all this change and regret thing, is because i recently read a manga called doubt, the main character in the story, is a girl, who was really plain, and unnoticed by others, so when she entered senior high school, she decided to change, and she really did put in effort and all, and well the other characters in the school got jealous of her beauty, and therefore always found fault with her, thus she snapped and told them off, saying she wasn't always so pretty, she worked hard to get where she was cause she wanted to change her life.. etc basically what i stated above haha..
to continue... it is a nice manga, but yeah, sometimes change is inevitable, and sometimes we have to have the courage to bring it around by ourselves, i for one, am a coward in some aspects, but i do my best to be brave, though when it comes to the matters of the heart, as all of you know i am a failure, cause i am totally clueless, but like the main character of that manga, i am bringing about change, and now, though i am clueless i am not that clueless, rome wasn't built in a day.. so cheer me on, on this road to self discovery, of what i want in life, love, family & friends.. :)
on another note, the other day my cousin randomly asked, cause apparently he was doing a survey, in which i can check the results out later at his blog.. but he asked me, what do i think are the fundamentals of a relationship.. well if you asked me, my direct answer, which is short and sweet is just simple.. two things, love and trust...
but then again this two things don't just fall out of the sky..from reading the christian book, what is my purpose in life.. (haven't finished reading it, cause well, errm.. not motivated to? but i'm halfway through.. i will blog bout it when i'm done reading), from that book, there was a chapter that said that, god placed us on earth to love him and love everyone in his family, his family being all other believers..
but that is not the point here, the point here is how they described what love is.. and to shorten it, and to put it into my own words, i would say that love is time and devotion.. for example, in a family, why do some families don't get along well, it's cause they don't have time for each other, if you don't have the devotion/effort to make time, how do you expect love to nuture?
it's basically the same in all relationships, if you want to get a loved one, you must be willing to devote your time, and yourself, meaning your heart to the other person.. mother's are the best example as they devote all their time, body and spirit to their children.. but, i don't mean that everyone has to be like a mother to others..that's freaky haha, but basically.. love and trust are jsut two simple answers, i wonder how many people will look deeper.. to see what brings about love and trust...
when one is willing to spend (equivalent to devote) their time for another, feelings grow, and if nutured that is what becomes love, that's why the book was saying that the love for god was not born overnight, but more like built over time, and that is the same with all human relationships..
as for trust, that usually comes along naturally with love, but trust also involves time, the more time we spend with the person, the more we understand that person, the more we know whether that person can be trusted or not..
i think everything boils back down to time.. maybe i should message my cousin and tell him that i've decided to change my answer? :p haha
ヒント:every star has its life span, it starts out by shining very bright, but as the years go by, the gasses used to keep it alight are slowly being burnt out, and in the end the star becomes dim.... dimmer, and in the end totally loses its shine, either it just stays there as a floating piece of rock in space (i think, can't remember) or it explodes... forgot what is it called.. nebular? (sigh, when was the last time i read stuff like that... ==') aarghh.. something, and it becomes a black hole sucking all the light and other stuff into it... 私はの意味はわかたかな?もうげんかいかな。。
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ here is something interesting i got off ccy's msn.. sounded interesting to me, and well kind of romantic? haha.. so i copied it here to share.. apparently he got it off a story?? ask him, i don't know, i can't read chinese story books ==' haha but he said that he will translate it and post about it ahha :p so await the link :)
如果我是鱼,而你是水, 我可以游入你的心里吗? [ru guo wo shi yu, er ni shi shui, wo ke yi you ru ni de xin li ma?]
for the bananas.. ie those who don't understand chinese.. this means.. if i were a fish and you are the water, could i swim into your heart?
reminds me of this quote from bleach that i put on my friendster :p
"If I were the rain, could I connect with someone's heart, as the rain can unite the eternally separated earth and sky?" said by orihime..
mood not good.. what better way to lift my bad mood but through music.. since my arm hurts (somehow smart me, managed to strain the muscles on my dominant hand.. sigh...) so it makes it hard for me to play the piano, i've turned to the guitar, and this is the song i'm trying to learn..

on another note, here is another interesting illustration that i got off a fellow blogger's blog, a singaporean girl called stickgirl!! (ccy sent her link to me..) her blog is really cute, so drop by her blog if you are free.. the links to her blog are under the pictures i posted while crediting her..
and to those inconsiderate smokers out there.. please consider the anaemics okay (or other people affected by the smoke), anaemics, get dizzy, headaches and sometimes diffulty breathing cause of your inconsiderate actions.. so to smokers like the illustration up there.. they should be fined heavily and locked up!!!
i also think smokers should not smoke in an enclosed area... that is being super inconsiderate..(though many will disagree- but hello? smoking in an airconditioned place.. where is your brain??!!! you are just being outright inconsiderate to other people..) i mean duh use your brain, enclosed area means that the not so well people who don't want to die from stroke or lung cancer will still be affected.. go outside and smoke la.. Malaysia really should ban indoor smoking like UK (the ban even applies to clubs, i don't see how, if they can do it, why can't we???), though i heard from my dad, they have, and i have seen some signs. but as usual, we are "malaysia boleh".. sigh...
to the inconsiderate smokers, if you want to die a slow painful expensive death, please don't involve other innocent people.. statistics have shown that women are more capable of getting cancer due to second hand smoke... can't remember where i read it.. but here is a link to check out..want to know more? than google it yourself..
besides instead of spending money on ciggerattes go use the money for someothing better like studying for your masters or something..
i got this video from my email.. xin yin loves to send this kind of stuff, and when i do have time, i will take a look..and so happens today i was quite free and i was going through the mail she sent and saw this video.. it's so damn cute and funny at the same time haha :p i've never seen anything like it, so i went through the trouble to upload it onto youtube and posted it here haha :p
Enjoy
speaking about sneezing.. i have reached a hypothesis... recently after posting that i sneezed a lot, in the banzai post, i immideatly stopped sneezing so much.. so here's the hypothesis..
if the sneezing is due to someone thinking of you.. then i guess i would still continnue sneezing.. i mean its not easy to just stop yourself from thinking of someone right?? see like even in my case, though i try hard not to think of my dog.. i still end up thinking of him.. see where this is leading too....???
yes, means that some people out there are backstabbing me and they stopped after reading that post hahahah :p is my hypothesis correct i wonder ;p haha
(just something crappy that i thought off and decided to post here :p doubt that many will notice the edit anyway haha :p )
on the 12th being my cousin's birthday, it became a little cousin outing, ling,wooi yaw (i still have trouble spelling this cousin's name ==') ben and i, went to the curve to celebrate ben's birthday. so we were at cineleisure..
we arrived, bought tickets for the movie stardust, and had dinner in cineleisure.. the asam laksa and nasi lemak wasn't bad haha.. since we had close to 2 hours to kill before the movie, we decided to get a drink..
headed to the ice bar, it was happy hour, so i would say that it was relatively cheap, had two mugs of beer, and headed off to the cinema, cause we wanted popcorn and drinks..
haha had a little laughter at the counter, cause they had this promotion, where when you buy a drink you get this water bottle.. both ling and i wanted the bottle, and told ben who was buying, that we wanted it.. we got confused by the cashier, who said that we have to buy a set first bla bla.. we held up the line for quite some time until they almost wanted to open the other cashier haha.. so funny :p
in the end we got our bottles. pop corn and drinks, and waited to enter the hall..
the movie? it was really nice haha.. having been watching movies alot lately, i watched the trailer and was taken away, plus the fact that melissa said it was from a book neil gaiman wrote.. so i was like ok it should be nice.. my cousin ling had a contradicting opinion which she took back after the movie haha.. so yes it's a wonderful movie, with a feel good ending haha ;p
but we caught the 930pm show so by the time we got out of the cinema it was 12am.. apparently my dog got pissed cause i wasn't home yet, so he peed.. and the dog as well as his mummy here got scolding . "see come home late, the dog got angry go and pee there.. then i have to clean.. bla bla.." hahah.. well my dog seems kind of cold to me, but i guess he is in the end one little insecure puppy who is afraid his mummy will leave him again.. *awww :p*
and... that's all... for this post..nothing much to say.. except my insane classes start next week... sob sob..
my arm still hurts, and it's as if i broke my arm or something ==' can't use it much.. arghhh!!! maybe i should follow my mom's opinion and put it in a sling.. and do everything left handed from now on?? being ambidextrous will help with my piano playing.. haha (though due to the pain at the moment, i can't play the piano.. so am playing around with the guitar.. and i just realised. ccy you didnt finish teaching me the ronan keating song!! G D Cadd D. .then??? o_O')
currently watching hana kimi the taiwan version this round.. not bad. the taiwan version so far, has really stuck to the manga.. and the main actor, acting as sano, is actually from brunei!! o_O he's like us, can speak malay, english, mandarin, cantonese, and well for his case hokkien la ahha :p
oh oh actor name ar.. .err..Wu chun.. haha from fahrenhiet..ermm i think i actually wacthed another drama in which he acted in.... err...tokyo juliet i think.. but i got bored and never finished that drama... i like comedy, not angsty... that's why when i watched the drama called it started with a kiss, i liked it. haha laughing all the way.. :p either give me shows that make me feel touched and cry(one litre of tears, taiyou no uta, helen the baby fox etc) or something that makes me laugh every episode.(hana kimi, it started with a kiss etc) haha.. angsty... gets on my nerves aahaha
so... that's about it... signiing off to continue watching my hana kimi taiwan version ahha :p
Banzai.... = errr..hurray???? so hard to literally translate..
but i fixed my translation widget muahahha.. .
who say mac is cacat?
cis... smack you..
for future reference for myself, and so that i don't have to search like a donkey again... and well for those who had the same problem.. here's the solution :p
Problem : DashboardTranslationWidget --> The "translate from" language is now Japanese, and the language it says to translate to now just says "undefined" for some reason. When I click to change the "translate from" language, it lists all the options, but when I click to change the other language, it says only English, and it is checked. Also, I can't click in the textbox to type. When I click the swap languages button, both boxes switch to saying English, and I can again only change the first language. Also, I see a Systran logo on the front of the widget, and can't click to view the back of the widget.
Solution: Open Finder and go into the Library->Caches folder located in your home folder. Go there to the folder named DashboardClient and delete it's entire contents (there will be sub-folder's named like 00, 01, 02, etc.)
Then go to the Library->Preferences folder and delete there the file named: widget-com.apple.widget.translation.plist
2nd Solution (simpler, but i didn't manage to try it out, cause i got this solution after i've already tried the first one):- 1) Close the widget--click on the + at the bottom of the Dashboard screen, then little X in the upper left hand corner of the widget to close it. Close dashboard.
2) Search for "widget-com.apple.widget.translation.plist" -- you should find one file with that exact name. Throw that file in the trash.
3) Now, go back to Dashboard and re-open the widget. It should be fixed.
If using the "Find" command isn't working, do this:
Find your user folder--it should be in the left side of any Finder window with an icon that looks like a little house.
In that folder, there will be a folder called "Library". Within "Library" there is a "Preferences". Within "Preferences", you should be able to find a file called "widget-com.apple.widget.translation.plist"--drag that to the trash.
**** Problem 2: i ran repair disk and this is what came up
Volume Header needs minor repair The volume Macintosh HD needs to be repaired.
Error: The underlying task reported failure on exit
1 HFS volume checked Volume needs repair
now it wont let me repair the disk
Solution: insert the install disk that came with the laptop, and hold down the c key while it starts up, on the upper bad that comes out, select disk utility, run and repair :) simple
for mac users out there.. this mac forum is really useful, i go there for all my mac troubles :)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
on another not so banzai record.. why do i keep sneezing??!!
Chinese thinking.. --> sneeze once, people are talking behind your back, sneeze twice, someone is thinking of you...
Japanese thinking --> sneezing means there is someone thinking of you..
i don't know about korean....
i don't know whether it's thinking or back stabbing.. i don't mind thinking but back stabbing??!! o_O'
but sneezing so much is not pleasant for me.. ==' and well it could just be the dust, or it's cold in the morning.... ==' or i don't know something else.. arghh.... sneeze sneeze sneeze 面倒臭い (めんどうくさい- mendoukusai - troublesome)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
anyway.. since i'm blogging today i shall take the chance to wish ben my dear cousin and cheese happy birthday.. i didn't realise that they were both on the same day.. till last night i was like :- "oh. it's the 12th already.. have to wish ben and cheese.." and then.. ==' (yes my reaction is slow...) "... ben and cheese?? their birthday is on the same day??!!" o_o'
yes, wonderful mind i have there, i memorized birthdays but didn't remember that they are together, which kind of don't make sense.. reminds me at that time when i realised that wai kitt and ling's (my other cousin) birthday were on the same day as well haha :p blur sayaka.. :p
so ya, happy birthday to the both of them, and well, later i am going out with ben and ling to celebrate ben's birthday :p ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

so anyway.. actually ccy and i last ate at 1130am-12pm, so we were starving and said 7pm, but the others said 8 so we kind of waited, and they showed up.. ordered food and drink which took close to and hour to arrive.. ==' almost died from hunger, i was so hungry to the point that i no longer felt hungry..
so anyway.. chatted and all.. actually mawarians are quite okay to get along? haha. sorry for the prejudice.. but err,... back in high school our classes were like enemies/rivals? haha.. petunia unfortunately didn't really like mawar cause of the special treatment they got from the teachers.. :p
anyway after dinner, we ended up at a internet cafe called fullmetal jacket... my 2nd time at such a place... at first was playing a car racing game.. so hard to control!! i prefer daytona.. intially was doing okay, but in the last game i totally died there.. ==
after that we played dota.. ahh that game.. which i played for the first time 2 years ago?? with gene,ccy, ro and their friends... this time i had better control.. and kind of knew it better.. so it wans't that bad haha :p was quite fun, and besides i had my sensei.. satoshi kun there haha..
time passes by so fast when you play computer games.. my parents called and i was like still early ma.. and satoshi was going..1130pm liao la.... i went o_0'
so finished the game than leonard sent me home.. cause it was raining and ccy only had his motor.. leonard doesn't usuallly send girls home if you get what i mean haha..

十一日十一月二00七年:日曜日
the night before.. i think ccy told me that huey wanted to go to some japanese festival charity baazar at hotel Nikko KL.. ermm so got a text in the morning.. looked at it.. and fell back asleep.. haha typical of me ahha... so ccy called.. so i dragged my ass out of bed haha :p went for breakfast with my parents, got dragged to digital mall, cause my dad wanted to upgrade his laptop's memory.. then picked huey up, and ccy came over, and the three of us headed to the lrt, and to hotel nikko..
the charity baazar was so-so, guess cause we arrived around 1 something almost 2 there wasn't much things left, and well they cut down the prices on some stuff haha...
we bought some food stuff :p and the japanese curry.. sigh.. i still can't find the one like okubo sensei's curry.. no one makes it like she does ==' but it was okay, we had onigiri too ahha
after hotel nikko we headed to central market to look see..it was raining quite heavily so i guess it was good we were there.. walked quite a lot.. felt so tired..
since huey's parents went for a wedding dinner today, i suggested that we have dinner together.. so after central market the 3 of us headed to ming tien 明天 to have dinner.. and then we walked to my house, to chat, play the guitar and the piano...
huey tunes the guitar better than ccy haha.. i don't feel like it's really out of tune when she was done :p haha
did some tarot reading for the both of them as well haha :p after that my dad sent them both home.. and hear i am journaling it,so that if i do get amnesia one day... haha, i will still know aha :p
so that's it.. i think i'm some alien or something, cause you know, when people get injured, they tend to heal, but in my case i tend to get worse.. =.=' my right arm, hurts even more lately, that seriously, i can't even play a complete song on the piano.. (symptom of depression? chronic pain for more than 2 weeks.. haha --> wikipedia - clinical depression..) thus i have turned to the guitar haha :p maybe that's why my guitar skills have improved? haha :p
but that's about it.. i'm too tired to write down all the nitty bitty little details.. if i really do get amnesia i have huey and ccy to be my reference haha :p
Permalink, the thing that allows fellow bloggers to link each other to their posts.. doesn't seem to work on mine. but seems like i can obtain the link if i enter my account, so if anyone wants to link me, sorry it's troublesome but we don't have an option, you will have to ask me for the link...
unless my blog designer.. satoshi kun manages to come up with something. which in this case i feel its too troublesome so forget it la haha, your time is better spent studying.. so go study muahaha :p

あの ルキシャンロク(Lucky Shamrock) は 本当 にルキ(Lucky) です。お父さん は たすかる、私 の ラキシャンロク(Lucky Shamrock) 見ちぇった :) [Ano lucky shamrock wa honto ni lucky desu. otousan wa tasukaru, watashi no lucky shamrock miechatta] (That lucky shamrock is really lucky, my dad was a big help, i found my lucky shamrock)
since hoc mun asked me write in english, so here it is lor haha :p since i found the shamrock, i m not so upset anymore so i don't mind translating :p and for some of you who are learning japanese..consider this as a lesson to learn some kanji, katakana and hiragana, i don't mind teaching :p
-サヤカ- [Sayaka] (basicaly it's my middle chinese name translated to japanese)
and ya, when i'm upset i tend to use japanese to blog.. so ermm, if you want to understand what i'm saying either learn japanese or ask someone who knows to translate ahha :p
i was listening to my itunes and jsut realised.. how come the ochestras don't play chopin????? why don't they ever play tristesse or waltz in d flat major, or preludes.. or etudes... ==' wouldn't it sound nice if it was a piano concerto??
i want to hear chopin with an ochestra haha.. but usually chopin is just the piano only, i don't think i ever heard chopin's work blended in with an ochestra.. the most was, a duet.. violin and piano.. which is on my player. and that was from an anime.if not i don't think that i would get to hear such a wonderful duet
bach isn't realy my thing, don't really like the hapischord... but it's ok.. but well mendelsshon is quite good.. i still like grieg the best at the moment thanks to the slovenia philharmonic haha...
mozart, beethoven.. are a bit over played... but still ok... strauss...hmmm~ haven't heard that one in an ochestra yet.. aii.. i want to go for anohter ochestra....
but MPO's standard does not meet my expectations... how?? o_0'
and ccy, the player only can upload a limited amount of songs?? but nevermind la.. i uploaded quite a lot already :p
**i feel that this is compressed since i m too tired to write too much but, for the super compressed version please head to ccy's blog..**
三日十一月二00七年:土曜日
actually planned to go for the Malaysian Philharmonic Ochestra [MPO] on this day, but in a way it was good we didn't go on this day, cause saturday performances requires one to dress formally, and we were going straight from class. yes the 10am -715pm class == so tired..
heard from Ai kun bout the Okinawa Dance & Music Festival, and decided to go for that instead, since it was free, so i went with Ai kun to collect the tickets, and on saturday was rushing satoshi kun who was holding the tickets, cause we needed to exchange them haha, but we made it in time, and after that spent some time camera whoring
--> it was at auditorium DBKL at Jalan Raja Laut, there is a picture of the three of us, but it blocks off the background...
yesh we were all in pink hehe
so who was there? huey, ccy, me, ai kun, mel, cheese, and nick leong..
nick spent the better part of the performances intepreting the dance movements to me, and well i think they were using okinawa slang, that i didn't understand what the heck they were singing... only here and there.. did i understand, but when they sang the song titled Hana [花], i understood it haha :p my japanese isn't that bad after all haha..
so ya, it was a fun experience, though i was tired as hell, the night before didn't have enough sleep, and the show ended around 11pm, by the time i got home etc, i went to bed around 2 something in the morning.. sigh. and the next day i had class...
about the dances, the dancers were quite good, their body movements were very controlled... etc and well ccy said the rest on his blog, go read his blog la...
pictures courtesy of Cheese, i m too tired/lazy to get the pictures out of my camera... so that will be later... :p
although lacking sleep, i dragged my sorry ass out of bed, cause today i was going for the MPO!! was excited about, it and thought to be a bit vain today since i rarely dress up anyway.. resulting in me being a bit late, so thought to call horng yang and follow him to college, but by the time i arrived at college he was still at home.. =='
class was kind of torturing seeing that i was tired, not enough sleep ==' lunch... well only had a lotus seed bun, no appetite.. (but thank god by dinner time kid of recovered ahaha)
so left class and headed to KLCC to meet up with the rest, performances were so-so... i missed the piano concerto, the highlight of the event for me, yes was very,very pissed, but not really anyone's fault, it was just a bad day.. sigh.. it's just my luck and my fate..
Go.. somebody up there doesn't love me.. =='
my comment on the MPO? Slovenia's Philharmonic Ochestra is better.. the players in the MPO seems really stiff, not much expression.. skill wise, i think they are not bad, but their music failed to move my heart, maybe i was too pissed to enjoy, but i kind of calmed down already... during that time.. and well huey seconds me, so ermm i guess Ganbatte MPO!! put more expression into it.. move people to tears....
like in Slovenia, when the played the part that a boat was travelling, you could really feel like you were in the storm with the boat going up and down, and when you reached calm waters again.. OMG that was like so chun, you can really feel the music...
after the MPO we headed home, nick, ccy and i went to ming tien 明天 for dinner, the other's couldn't join, met Rachael there, my classmate in form 1 chatted a bit, headed home, played a bit of piano, and then it was online haha.. supposed to sleep early cause i wanted my nasi lemak, but it seems like people on msn don't want me to sleep, hence i slept late, tired as i was and missed my nasi lemak.. well there is always tuesday la ahha..
no pictures from MPO unfortunately =='
but that's that.. so ccy, this considered long or short? i'm feeling very tired today... ==' where is my energy source?? haha... ロスコちゃん will do la hehe
shoulder still pain.. sigh.. 私はの人生大嫌い。。wash toilet then play piano?? ahha :p
i don't know what i did, slept on the wrong side? but it was like that since Europe and Australia, so i attributted it to the heavy luggage bags i had to drag around with me... especially in London...
cause my shoulder hurts like hell, that doing simple stuff like lifting heavy, well not so heavy stuff as well, raising my ram, strecthing my arm hurts.. damn.. really affecting my piano playing. sigh... the guitar is out of tune again, but i have to learn how to tune it back at some point, cause once satoshi kun returns to the US who is going to tune it for me?? :(
i think i'm either too sensitive to the tone or i'm tone deaf.. 15 years of playing the piano and tone deaf.. so sad.. but guess you can't really say i m tone deaf if i can figure out that the guitar is out of tune.. and my piano as well.. is kind of out of tune...
sigh if not for the previous post... stating my research, i think i would have yet again mistook the chest pain i was having while sitting down , and lazing around as a heart attack or something haha, but being a first aider, i roughly now the symptoms of a heart attack anyway, and i m still alive and well here..
maybe i'm getting heart ache since my dog doesn't really seem to love me anymore.. do i really bully him that much? but i bath him, bring him for walks, feed him, cuddle him, play with him, carry him when he wants me to, what more does he want??? is a little love so hard to give to your poor little mummy here??? traitor of a dog .... to think i raised you == one year to be more exact 10 months of my absence could change your heart so much... cis =='
seems like my com slows down alot when hot.. guess it's too used to cool tempretures as well? as i type this, i think i'm typing at least one pragraph ahead of what teh computer is showing, so don't mind teh spelling mistakes cause i can't check it since i type while looking at the screen and my words are coming out way too slow... and i m too lazy to reread and correct it... =='
chest pain, shoulder pain, headache.. sigh it's jsut like what satoshi kun said.. i'm like an old aunty... anyway.. brickfields college has me being a bit busy preparing my documents to send in to the legal profession qualifying board for the CLP so am a tad busy, not to mention that i have a tutorial tonight and tomorrow it's the torture class of 10-715pm, and sunday there is morning class..
on a side note, this saturday i am going to watch teh okinawa dance and mucis festival in auditorium dbkl, and on sunday i get to go to the malaysian philharmonic ochestra, looking forward to the MPO more though hehe, which will be playing:
Bach's suite no 4 in D, Bartok piano concerto no 3, and Mendelsshon 's symphony no 3 in A minor..
should be good hehe... but afteer that the horror starts cause after the Deepavail break, for the whole of november i will be having classes everyday except on monday..
yes EVERYDAY EVEN WEEKENDS!!! (minimum class hours perday? 5 hours straight... ==') sigh.... ==' such is my life.. well at least in december it somewhat slows down again...
anyway. got to get ready for my class tonight... am therefore signing off... and before i go i would like to share the cute little icon that i got of marlyn's facbook below haha..
actually seeing that most of my mates are guys... errr.. i might get stones thrown back at me instead haha :p but it's cute nevertheless, and you guys are way too nice to throw stones at girls right?? heheh
