hmm.. just realised tt it might not be obvious enough.. -.- since this post is so long.. e gift is e lyrics below.. :)
been a long wait eh? 19 months since my last composition.. finally managed to come up with my 5th set of lyrics.. but before i continue, just wanna say tt i've somewat made searching for my own lyrics easier by tagging e posts with the label: lyrics.. haha.. even i have difficulty locating them in my own blog.. geez..
e lyrics below were actually e 6th set.. but e original 5th set is incomplete and has been put aside for e moment.. as i've mentioned in various earlier posts, i've been deciding between various options and toying with some ideas for this next set of lyrics.. one of which was whether to continue with e friendship series of lyrics or start off with a different themed set..
also e idea of incorporating new elements into my lyrics were considered and ultimately, only 1 was implented in this set.. which is e inclusion of e friend's name in e lyrics itself.. other ideas tt i've toyed with, i'll probably introduce them as they appear in my following compositions..
so much for e long talk, now about this set of lyrics itself.. it is e 2nd set of lyrics in e friendship series, which i quote myself (haha.. lazy me): "my inspiration would come mainly from my friends and through the lyrics, show a different aspect of them tt is not commonly shown".. although i would like to add on tt e series is also meant as a gift to my dear friends who have played an important role in my life journey..
the following set of lyrics is dedicated to someone who, i'm glad tt, has crossed paths with mine..
Lyrics no. 5
勇敢向前
陈旧的照片 洒落在地面
回忆的碎片 我翻了几遍
街上的车声它安静了一点
风在我耳边轻轻地念
明月挂天边 照着我心田
泪水在嘴边 我望着眼前
心灵的声音它明亮了一点
夜将我小手轻轻地牵
抛下所有厌倦 舍弃所有眷恋
我相信我能不再流连 往事那一篇
哪怕尘世再变迁 哪怕困惑多缠绵
我会惦着我脚尖 勇敢地向前
玉镜它不变 就如我理念
所有的演变 我当作历练
未来的呼声它明确了一点
光引我向前轻轻地牵
作词:小飞机
二零零七年十二月二十三日完成
In a nutshell: this song talks about this girl who while looking back at her troubled past, is not daunted by it, but instead forges ahead.. a mentally strong person, she takes her life experiences as guides for her future path..
Comments: i remember e days when i stayed in blk 12.. yr story seemed to be typical of e ppl who lived in tt area.. a path tt is tough to walk, rough and undulating.. but with yr determination, u managed to get to where u are today.. really glad to have known u as a friend and i wish u all e best in yr future endeavours and i hope tt u'll be able to get watever u seek.. :)

it's hols once again.. well at least for one, i guess it's slightly diff from e other hols tt i had.. in tt i didn't maple and pangya as much.. though there was quite some bit of dota with my friends.. also took an interest in e anime bleach.. quite nice i'd say.. like e way in which it blends in seriousness with humour, or e other way round.. would think tt it's actually better den naruto.. still have pretty much room to develop.. for bleach's storyline and characters, which will make it's subsequent episodes interesting..
took ippt todae with marc and kelvin.. haha.. well, we all failed.. e result of not exercising much (if at all) was evident.. my results was worse den e one tt i had when i took in my ICT.. this time round i failed another station which i nv did b4.. situps.. erm wth.. really.. i didn't even cross e 30 mark..
and somehow, somehow.. i managed to lose my 11b.. of all things.. and just my 11b.. geez.. wonder where i lost it.. dunnoe if it was in e camp or at tt bedok hawker centre (e one at tanah merah).. seriously hope tt someone finds it and be so kind as to send it b to me.. browsing through e internet, e process for reporting e loss seems quite troublesome.. and it costs $50 to replace it too.. sian..
tty's back in sg once again and we had actually planned on jamming overnight at his place.. but it didn't work out to be and we ended up playing cs.. haha.. i think we need to plan beforehand e scores tt we're going to play.. and i also dunnoe how to play any musical instruments.. -.-
so subject registration ended a few days ago and i managed to get e same classes as e gang.. guess i wont be tt much of a loner in e coming sem.. good to have ppl u noe in e same class as u.. quite unfortunate tt i didn't get chinese lyrics or any of e hp200 modules.. either e timings clashed for e timetable or for e exams.. so ended up taking hp311.. 4 day week still seems quite far from my reach.. guess only possible in e following sem.. depending on how things go..
had a pretty interesting dream e other day.. was a lucid one, not a controlled one though.. well, at least not exactly a controlled one.. moved w e flow of e dream.. anyways, in e dream i was parachuting.. v fun.. though probably not as adrenaline pumping as window jumping.. dun ask me y, even though e height involved is higher and technically speaking e speed involved is much higher too.. but e parachuting wasn't a straightforward one.. and if u may, actually seems more like an obstacle course.. haha.. really! and e dream lasted for quite long too.. would put it at abt 10-15mins.. real life timing.. fun fun.. i guess i might try tt out again in my next controlled dream.. if i can tt is..
haven't been much out of my home, less going abroad.. kinda miss e family tradition of going overseas every hols.. now tt my sis and i have diff hols, it's diff to plan an outing together..
i wonder if i should plan anything just b4 e school opens..

u probably would have noticed e various changes tt i made to e blog.. added back e nice mouse clock! yay~ dunnoe y i deleted it in e 1st place.. -.- also added this 2nd sticky on youtube music videos.. but apparently it's not really working correctly.. only 48 of e vids got loaded.. also added a new link to freerice.com which allows people to improve their vocab while helping to do a part for e UN World Food Program at e same time.. or at least tt's wat they say.. tty did some research and was quite skeptical of it.. seems tt e advertising money tt e webbie gets more den covers for e amount of rice tt they donate..
fell very sick just yesterday morning.. in e wee hours.. didn't help tt i was feeling darn pissed thinking abt my elective project when i was in e process of falling sick.. i guess i'll talk more abt my sickness 1st.. vomited twice and had diarrhoea like 5 times.. really emptied my stomach out.. to think tt after being illness free for so long, my 1st sickness would be such a bad experience.. feeling much better now though, although i still feel a bit lethargic..
moving on to e project.. really pissed me off man.. decided to finally read through e draft tt this guy sent earlier.. he was supposed to consolidate e report and well, let's just say he did exactly tt.. and only exactly tt.. fuck him man.. e points tt i highlighted in e draft tt i sent to him, to show e changes tt i've made.. it was still there.. highlighted.. and he was supposed to compile e questions tt we came up with for e new questionnaire.. and there was none of his questions in e compiled list.. NONE.. _|_ and there was supposed to be only 10 questions in e compiled list, but there was 14, and all because he just copied and paste e questions there.. highlight, inconsistent bullet numbering & question phrasing and all.. fucker man.. and his english totally sucked.. ok.. maybe a bit of an exaggeration.. but with tt kinda standard he prob would be better off calculating numbers or doing some other shit den studying biz..
i don't think he even proof read e whole report.. his part of e report just plainly contradicted and was inconsistent with my hypothesis testing results.. this guy should really fuck off man.. even worse den e total freeloader group mate tt i had in yr 1 sem 1.. at least i noe tt tt guy was a total freeloader and i didn't had to waste my time editing stupid stuff tt wouldn't exist at all if he was a freeloader.. and he also took such a long time to do e stupid stuff tt he did b4 sending to us.. bravo man..
not tt e other group members were great also.. it was only yesterday, 1 day before e deadline, tt someone volunteered to help hand in e project.. i thought having differnent horizons on this project was bad enough.. 2 of us were planning to minor in psycho while e other 2 just took it as an elective and didn't S/U it..
i really dun care if tt fucker stumbles on to this post.. actually i think it would be good if he did.. so tt he can see e shit tt i have to say of him..

haha.. so the first personality test (well sort of) tt i did after such a long time actually turned out to be quite a rubbish.. doesn't quite seem to be me tt it's describing..
was feeling a bit bo liao and went to google my nick.. ends up tt songluck seems to be quite a feminine name, having female counterparts in china and thailand.. on a side note, e thai counterpart actually looked quite nice.. lol..
turns out tt tty started playing ms again.. this time on D server.. and i thought tt it was laggy playing from down under.. well.. i personally haven played ms in ages (read: ~2 months).. might squeeze in some time next week, just to squeeze my way to the next level before parking him somewhere else to continue farming for my WA10 WG.. probably might be able to get it before e school starts next sem.. hopefully..
the time for exams has come again.. yeah.. let's not talk abt it yet.. haha..
was playing around a bit over lyrics no.5 and it seemed like i really need some long stretch of free time if i'm to come up with something decent.. and of course, e need to improve my chinese.. e words tt swim in my head just appeared to be those miserly few..
dreams had been quite interesting lately.. with 2 attempts at something tt i'm trying out.. was actually planning to do a dragonball type of chakra-surrounding/engulfing-your-body move.. or something like king of fighters' athena's ultimate.. e idea is tt e chakra in e dreams stem from e amount of will or control tt u have over yr dream.. and tt this will/dream control is materialised in e form of visible chakra..
and it turned out tt e move wasn't exactly wat i expected.. in e 1st try, i attempted to do e stunt while flying stationary.. in e end, it appeared tt simultaneously flying and executing e stunt proved difficult and i could not keep myself flying upright.. so in e 2nd try, i attempted e stunt in a dhalsim float-above-the-ground yoga position.. to only get my sub-conscious playing punk with me by throwing up random dream characters disturbing my concentration..
on hindsight, i thought tt e stunt might not actually be a good move.. because while executing it, i had to close my eyes and concentrate.. now tt doesn't make sense if i have to open my eyes and see for myself tt i had successfully executed it.. so i thought tt maybe a rasengan/chidori type of stunt might be a better alternative.. e idea remains e same tt i have to materialise my will into e form of visible chakra..
so much so for quite a bit of technicalities on my dreams.. come to think of it.. wat's another word for actually? darn.. even my english vocab are going green by recycling e words..
did an acronym in my previous presentation on dastel and rather amusingly, my groupmate took quite a serious interest in it's creative (*cough cough) use.. such tt e following informal group presentation she actually suggested using it again.. and it popped up again in her final individual presentation just last week, along with another classmate's.. haha.. i personally think tt presentations should be a bit more fun and differing from e normal, boring types.. anyway, i used a story in my final presentation as an attention getter, something which well, was a first in my class.. wonder how e tutor took to tt..
yay.. just realised tt this's quite a long post.. haven't been backing up my blog word file for a long time liao.. probably might want to do it soon.. in e hols.. and perhaps if i have e time to actually edit it into a form tt is compilable into a book.. a check with e file turns out tt i've not backed it up since aug 18 last year.. think e current blog would quite likely have increased to about 70k words from e previous 59,500..

You entered: XXXXXXXXXXX
There are 11 letters in your name.
Those 11 letters total to 55
There are 3 vowels and 8 consonants in your name.
Your number is: 1
The characteristics of #1 are: Initiating action, pioneering, leading, independent, attaining, individual.
The expression or destiny for #1:
A number 1 Expression denotes the skilled executive with keen administrative capabilities. You must develop the capacity to be a fine leader, sales executive, or promoter. You have the tools to become an original person with a creative approach to problem solving, and a penchant for initiating action. Someone may have to follow behind you to handle the details, but you know how to get things going and make things happen. You have a good mind and the ability to use it for your advancement. Because of these factors, you have much potential for achievement and financial rewards. Frequently, this expression belongs to one running a business or striving to achieve a level of accomplishment on ones talents and efforts. You have little need for much supervision, preferring to act on your own with little restraint. You are both ambitious and determined. Self-confident and self-reliant must be yours, as you develop a strong unyielding will and the courage of your convictions.
Although you fear loneliness, you want to be left alone. You fear routine and being in a rut. You often jump the gun because you are afraid of being left behind.
The negative attributes of the 1 Expression are egotism and a self-centered approach to life. This is an aggressive number and if it is over-emphasized it is very hard to live with. You do not have to be overly aggressive to fulfill your destiny. The 1 has a natural instinct to dominate and to be the boss; adhering to the concept of being number One. Again, you do not have to dominate and destroy in order to lead and manage.
Your Soul Urge number is: 3
A Soul Urge number of 3 means:
With the Soul Urge number 3 your desire in life is personal expression, and generally enjoying life to its fullest. You want to participate in an active social life and enjoy a large circle of friends. You want to be in the limelight, expressing your artistic or intellectual talents. Word skills may be your thing; speaking, writing, acting, singing. In a positive sense, the 3 energy is friendly, outgoing and always very social.
You have a decidedly upbeat attitude that is rarely discouraged; a good mental and emotional balance.
The 3 Soul Urge gives intuitive insight, thus, very high creative and inspirational tendencies. The truly outstanding trait shown by the 3 Soul Urge is that of self-expression, regardless of the field of endeavor.
On the negative side, you may at times become too easygoing and too optimistic, tending to scatter forces and accomplish very little. Often, the excessive 3 energy produces non-stop talkers. Everyone has faults, but the 3 soul urge doesn't appreciate having these pointed out.
Your Inner Dream number is: 7
An Inner Dream number of 7 means:
You dream of having the opportunity to read, study, and shut yourself off from worldly distractions. You can see yourself as a teacher, mystic, or ecclesiastic, spending your life in the pursuit of knowledge and learning.
There are 11 letters in your name.

haha.. just realised tt i love blogging at midnight.. e past few posts were all put up at ard this time.. ya so it's nearing e end of e sem.. and how soon too.. didn't feel tt i studied much.. which is a bad thing i suppose..
this week is mob week.. and from wat my sixth sense tell me, next sat is a burnt one.. sad.. quite a waste of time i feel..
so bra told me tt he has his eyes on a particular flower lately.. and it was quite funny to think about this event tt happened on e train.. well, i saw him on e train some days back and he was with the flower, together with some lightbulbs.. so they were yakking away when one of e lightbulbs asked bra wat kinda girl he liked.. haha.. i thought it was really funny, esp since bra was sitting beside e flower..
anyway, tty was trying to tell me smth abt his flower too but den he just abruptly cut off.. wonder wat he's up to.. maybe there's a spy watching.. lol.. haven been talking to him much recently even though i see him online quite often.. i guess it's kinda like wat they say.. friendship is something tt needs constant effort put into it by the various parties.. a lack of common topic is wat i feel gave rise to this little communication.. i think e 3 of us needs to once again find some common topic between us..
well actually i haven been in touch with just abt a lot of ppl.. have stopped sending mass smses for a long time.. partly due to e fact tt i ran out of memory to store new ones and also partly due to e fact tt not really a lot of ppl reply to them.. sometimes i do feel tt i need someone to have a heart-to-heart talk with.. much like e ones tt i had with kian pok and xiang.. and of course tty and bra also.. during e stayovers at tty's place.. just received a reply from snoopy after sending snoopy a birthday msg.. i think things have really changed.. not seeing someone for quite a period really weakens e friendship between e parties..
actually coming to think of it.. i guess there r many things to blog abt tt happened during my absence.. quite trivial things actually.. but neverless things tt have kept me busy lately.. mainly school stuff though..
guess i'll just sign off here for e moment.. getting late and i'm getting up at 7 tml.. not a wise choice to stay up too late..

so i only realised quite some days ago tt i had forgetten to "celebrate" my bloggie's birthday.. lol.. 4 years liao.. and sorta still surviving.. haven't really had much changes from wat it used to be when it first started out..
finally things seem to be able to slow down a bit now tt it is e recess week.. of course there are e usual projects tt require attention during this period.. haiz.. and talking about groups and group members for tt matter.. i must admit tt this is e first time i came across someone who is so opinionated.. hmmm.. before i go on any further, i'm wondering if i should be ethical and just keep additional comments to myself before e sem ends and e group members go their own ways.. ethical.. haha.. sounds so saintly.. really.. y cant some ppl just open up and listen to e comments of other ppl?
nonetheless, e groups this sem still are pretty ok.. landed in a i'm-e-only-guy-in-e-group situation for a 3rd consecutive sem.. argh.. projects projects projects.. now it seems somewat e trend tt we actually have to interview ppl in a company and it would be beneficial to have family members and friends who work in important positions in organizations.. cos tt will help us a lot in e process of our project.. was doing e AC213 project on thursday in clementi.. interviewing a former accountant of this company tt we were working on.. ended up finishing at 10pm and slumping into my bed right after i reached home and finished bathing.. but geez.. my elective project haven even started.. most prob only will after e break i guess.. stats.. argh.. bleh..
was talking to tty e other day about the phenomenal 179 8.30 queue.. now tt i actually dun stay in e hall and have to commute to school everyday, i think i've experienced e worst of e queues.. to think tt there is a place in singapore where e bus queue can actually strectch up to 150m.. and it's a daily occurance too.. something tt i also saw from this phenomenum is e inconsiderate and ugly side of some singaporeans (read: ntu students).. and they are a real picky lot mind you.. once they see tt e seats in a bus are filled up, they more or less won't bother to board e bus ie. refusing to stand.. yeah.. seems like some kinda rich spoilt brat.. or maybe they'll just defend themselves by saying tt they are e consumers and tt e choice is theirs..
an equally common sight would see some ppl waiting for their friends (or for empty seats in e next bus) while they are queueing up.. and when e bus comes they would just let e ppl behind them walk past to board it.. come on.. wat's with those ppl really.. if u wanna wait just wait outside e damn queue.. if not just board e bus and frigging stand for tt short journey..
moving on to talk about something on a lighter note.. i did my third? jump out of e window stunt in my dreams.. still as exciting as ever.. i guess there's an unconscious trend lately tt there's more of floating action than flying in my dreams.. staying in a spot in mid-air, several floors above e ground.. equally fun though.. hmmm.. quite looking forward to my next window jump.. haha..
haven watched a movie in a loooooooooong time., considering how common it used to be, before tty went to au to study.. maybe if u see this brandon, u can msg me a date and we'll come out and catch a crappy movie.. lol.. getting late.. maybe i'll post more about e girl who's mp3's too loud for e mrt announcement and e poster on anti-bus driver abuse next time.. oh ya.. maybe i'll talk about e controversial negarakuku video too..

a little short post before i do some real reading.. and talking about readings, this sem is a disaster of sorts for someone like me who nv has much patience in reading stuff.. just recapping e most serious stuff tt i've read b4 probably explains it all.. i've yet to read e full version of any english classic tales (like e black beauty), only read a full version of one chinese classic (water margins) and some mathematics books (history of maths kinda books included.. haha.. yeah..).. so basically tt's all.. and to think tt 3 out of 5 modules this sem has tons of readings to do (think OB x 3).. geez..
i guess this sem is better than e last (in e non-academic sense).. got to hang out more with this bunch of guys during lectures and watever free time we may have.. quite a huge group i say.. 8 ppl to be exact.. including me..
was talking to bra on msn e other day, to find out tt e shoes and socks affair was over.. i guess if A noes tt B likes A, then it would do all parties good if A told B tt A doesn't like B early on (if tt's e case).. procrastination in love is a cruel thing..
ok.. so i finally delayed enough time through writing e stuff above to recall some interesting tt i would like to share.. xinhan gave me this interesting webby.. think mastermind (words style)..
also came across a nice videos on ASF: guitar.. so i told tty abt it and hmmm, as usual he saw it b4 i did.. and he pointed me to some other cool vids: super mario brothers theme being played with e flute, drums, acoustic guitar, electrical guitar and even with bare hands! e theme is also played with double electric guitar by this talented guy called Zack.. quite cool looking at e way he plays 2 guitars at e same time.. definitely one of his better videos/pieces..

i guess y i decided to write up this post at this kinda hour is probably that i wanna keep a record of some interesting dream control stuff that i did in the holidays.. depending on how fast i type, i guess most likely i won't be touching much on other stuff..
so yup.. made some 1sts in my dream control.. there was this dream where i managed to hypnotise a group of people by just snapping my fingers.. and one interesting thing was that, probably following from wat happened in a controlled dream some dreams back, there was this person which was rebelious against my attempt to hypnotise.. i wonder why this kind of rebelious behaviour is starting to appear in my controlled dreams (although counting this in, it has only appeared twice so far..).. hmmm.. a deprovement in my dream control abilities? most probably my subconscious is trying to play punk with me by limiting the amount of full blown consciousness (or wat i like to term dream will - the will to control yr dream) tt i was using to control my dream..
there was this other dream which was quite intriguing in that it was sort of like a flying test.. lol.. yeah.. a test of my in-dream flying skills.. the flying terrain was a line of trees planted in a road divider.. and i was like trying to land and take off carefully from each tree branch as i maneuvered among the trees.. e tree branch were those kind tt were pretty thick though.. also had to, at the end of my controlled dream, land on a narrow pavement tt was beside this canal.. so this dream was different from e others in tt i had to exercise more control in my flight in that i actually had confined landing spaces.. quite a challenge, but it wasn't too tough for me.. oh yeah.. before i forget.. i actually did a mid-air back flip in this dream too.. quite fun.. but i guess e back flip experience could be enhanced if i could better visualise wat it was like looking at e world from a upside down point of view..
lastly, there was this other thing tt i did in my other dream.. must have been e most unusual/weirdest thing tt i've done (when u look at it from outside e context of e dream).. well, e thing was tt i converted everything in this shop in my dream to cost only $1.. i was shopping with someone in my dreams u see.. and i guess i must have had a flshback of something tt e person told me in real life to cause me to conjure up this weird move.. and er hmmm.. this was one move which i had no idea as to whether it was successful.. partly because i was more interested in making e person happy den to check out e success of my move.. -.-''' but my guess was tt it was a successful one though, looking at e person's expression after i had conjured up e move..

so yup.. back from a long hiatus again.. this time round 2 months long.. think my recent posts have been quite depressing ones.. sorta going through a low period i guess..
i think my memory is getting more self selective.. choosing to remember only certain things and forgetting the others..
didn't join in the music13 lyrics composition competition in the end.. i think i'll put aside lyrics writing for the time being.. totally not in the mood and condition to come out with anything.. i guess it's really a lack of passion of things that have been making me bum around for quite some time.. not doing anything productive..
k.. maybe before this gets into yet another depressing post, i should change the subject.. watched the anime series fate stay night.. forgot where's e hyphen or slash in e title.. but hack.. anyway it's quite a ok anime to watch.. just that it strangely introduced more sexual elements towards the end of the series.. and i think that the additions were just plain out of the blue and uncalled for.. -.-
i guess jap animes never fail to contain pretty much creative elements and i was just wondering if i could incorporate anything from fate stay night into my dreams.. the idea of tracing is certainly interesting and may eventually solve my problem (read: inability) to summon objects in my dreams.. been flying in my dreams just a few days back.. feels quite nice to be able to do that again.. realised that my dream flights seem to be getting higher up and the method of flight changing.. was just flying at ~15-20 storeys high in my dream the other day.. and actually, strictly speaking, it's more of gliding than flying..
hmmm.. actually thought that i had quite some bit to write.. especially since i always do after a hiatus.. but it seems like i'm having a blogger's block now..
oh ok.. now i remember what i can type about.. just logged in to blogger and realised it (was typing on notepad all the while..)
got a few youtube vids which i think are quite nicely done.. although the one in the first link has quite some vulgarities in it.. funny vid nevertheless.. and oh yeah.. it has hokkien in it too.. the second one is done by the lao char bo who acted in jack neo's Just Follow Law..

k.. now i remember what else i can blog about.. my exam results.. but i guess i'll leave it to another day..

i guess this has more of became like a monthly affair for me.. just published an old draft (see e post b4 tty's).. had actually wanted to continue from there on, but then i changed my mind..
finding myself increasingly drawing away from social activity and interaction.. pretty much a contrast to my sec school days.. i don't know.. but it seems like i may just be slowly screwing up my life.. or maybe it's just that i'm going through something which i dun enjoy.. uni life has really fallen short of anything tt i had perhaps expected.. and this only served to pop up e question of wat education is all about in its true fundamental sense..
there has always been a conflict of e unconscious idealistic me and e pragmatic, realistic aspect of my being.. and i do not really noe wat to make of it.. seeing e world as a huge cauldron of irony.. and sometimes just feeling life is a drag..
so wat would probably maslow say of my situation? an unfulfilled need for love and belongingness i guess.. haha.. irony irony.. self diagnosis of my personal problems..
have been a long time since i had a heart-to-heart talk with anyone..
2 more papers left to clear and i've not studied for them yet.. and yet i do not now feel e anxiety of failing to finish studying in time.. which most probably would be e case.. negative energies can result in a pretty vicious cycle.. or in OB and psychology terms, e cycle of low self-efficacy..
OB has been e most enjoyable module so far.. i guess partly because enjoyment in an activity does have a positive co-relation to e accomplishment level in tt activity.. 3 A+ grades for e 2 reports and 1 personal assignment has helped to put me in a good position to get a good grade for e subject.. that is, if i didn't screw up my paper.. was surprised to hear from an acquaintance that he had actually left 40 marks of stuff blank.. and because he had spent too much time on e front questions.. and ya.. he had GPA 4.72 for last sem.. realised tt there were actually not many ppl who had a lower GPA than me.. and they are actually countable..
i guess there are many more things tt i had wanted to type about, but i guess they might just freak ppl out..
there are some things tt i yearn for and yet i do not say them.. because i noe tt if i did, e feeling will be different..

EDIT: OH YEA I DISPLACED THE SO CALLED STICKY. MUAHAHAHHAHAHAAHAHA.
"The Three Musketeers' Blog - Songluck, Mtzang & NoDnArB"
I didn't notice the blog title till like a few days ago. When was it changed? Mayb it will be more appropriate to name the blog "Songluck-of-the-Three-Musketeers's Blog with very very very very very occasional guest appearances by Mtzang and NoDnArB".
When was the last time I posted here? think about a year ago.
How come no updates from the main contributor of this blog? and the sticky is really really annoying leh.. =P
4 years pass in a flash... this blog started in JC2 and since then we've survived the A levels, 2yrs of army and our first year in uni. Funny I dun feel like any of us has changed at all.
Reading past entries evokes the feeling of nostalgia... JC days were much more carefree and relaxing for me. And more happening too. now life here in sydney... almost no life - as in out of the house life. Don't go to movies, eat out, shopping, things you do outside your house. My life revolves around the uni and the place I stay in. Kinda miss the days in the past.
Blog more after my exam... i've got shitload of stuff to study but only 1+ day left.... S H I T. . . .

just finished watching e last episode of 1 litre of tears.. been a long time since i've watched anything as down-to-earth and heart warming as this series.. definitely ranks along side e italian? show Life is Beautiful..
realised tt cherryblossom actually does have e jap lyrics for only human.. and a brief glance showed tt my translation was pretty accurate.. will update e correct version of e jap lyrics when i have e time.. sometimes e jap language tool in e language bar doesn't seem to be working e way tt i want it to be.. btw, i just discovered tt e jap language tool in e language bar has a handwritting recognition software! and it's v accurate too, even when i tried to write in a horrendous and near illegible manner.. there was also a software tool for voice recognition, translating yr voice into text.. too bad tt it doesn't seem to be working.. if nt i'd have had a fun time playing around with it.. haha..
a few interesting or notesworthy events occurred during my absence from blogosphere this time round..
emu organised a sent-off gathering for tty some weeks ago and we had a fun time.. we ate at this jap restaurant at ps, which served relatively cheap, quality jap food as compared to sakaesushi.. after which we had dessert at one of e shops at e Asian Civilisation Museum (hope i nv rem wrongly.. e shop was at ACM rite? crosses fingers.. praying tt ju-zi's not reading this post lol..).. i would think that it's my first time (i have pretty horrendous memory.. or then again, maybe it's due to it's selective nature..) enjoying e company of a live band? under e open nite sky.. v enjoyable experience.. although e singing and strumming of e guitar of e "couple" band wasn't exactly perfect, i think tt tt shouldn't be e main point when listening to a live performance..
e experience made me feel like going to e 民谣餐厅 木船 to see wat it's like.. for those of you who don't noe, it's quite a popular place to listen to local singers performing local music or self composed songs.. 蔡淳佳 and 陈伟联 are just 2 of e singers who have performed there b4 they became household names.. would definitly be an great experience to spend a night there, listening to e singers crooning away..
oh ya.. just b4 i forget.. we also managed to meet up with ju-zi's bf, mr oatsy at e ACM.. haaha.. seems like a pretty nice chap..
brandon seems to have at least taken some frutiful actions these days.. and i thought tt he was a bit slow in his approach.. okay.. i still think tt he is a bit slow.. haha.. well, is it really difficult to get somebody's email? tt was wat we were pondering over, during e dinner at e jap restaurant.. esp e girls.. i think they were just plain perplexed as to y it might be so difficult.. to which i was surprised in turn by ju-zi's and emu's confessions tt they just about add anyone to their contact list.. without much thought given.. and ju-zi do not even bother to find out who e stranger was tt just added her on msn.. *rolls my eyes round* O.o

哀しみ の 向こう 岸に
微笑み が ある という よ
哀しみ の 向こう 岸に
微笑み が ある という よ
辿り 着く その 先に は
何 が 僕ら を 待ってる
逃げる ため じゃ なく 夢 追う ため に
旅 に 出た はずさ 遠い 夏 の あの 日
明日 さえ 見えた なら ため 息 も ない けど
流れ に 逆らう 舟 の よう に
今 は 前 へ 進め
苦しみ の 尽きた 場所 に
幸せ が 待つ という よ
僕 は 未だ 探して いる
季節 はずれ の 向日葵
古武士 握り緊め 朝日 を 待てば
赤い 爪 後 に 涙 きらり 落ちる
孤独 に も 慣れた なら
月 灯り 頼り に
羽 鳴き 翼 で 飛び 発とう
もっと 前 へ 進め
雨雲 が 切れた なら
濡れた 道 輝く
闇 だけ が 教えて くれる
強い 強い 光
強く 前 へ 進め
English translation (from The Cherryblossom Garden):
On the opposite coast of sadness
is something called a smile
On the opposite coast of sadness
is something called a smile
But before we can go there,
is there something we’re waiting for?
In order to chase our dreams, we can’t have a reason to run away
We’ve got to go, to that far away summer’s day
If we find it tomorrow, we can’t sigh
Because like a boat that opposes the stream
we have to walk straight on
In a place worn down by sadness
something called a miracle, is waiting
Yet we are still searching
for the sunflower that grows at the end of spring
The warrior who awaits the morning light
before he can clasp it with red nails, his tears glitter and fall
Even if we’ve grown used to loneliness
only relying on the light of the moon
We have to fly away with featherless wing
just go foward, just a little further
As the rainclouds break
the wet streets sparkling
Although it brings only darkness
A powerful, powerful light
helps push us to walk on
p.s. not entirely sure if e jap lyrics are correct, but it shouldn't be far off the mark.. will check up with my jap-eng dictionary when i have e time.. e spacing of e jap lyrics were done with reference to tt found in e cherryblossom garden.. feel tt spacing it this way is a bit ugly, but it's easier for those new to e language i suppose..
Veoh video download website - a pretty good alternative to youtube, with some of the videos being of very high quality.. dvd like.. of course the corresponding loading time is longer.. but i think the search results are still not as relevant as youtube's..

哀しみ の 向こう 岸に
微笑み が ある という よ
哀しみ の 向こう 岸に
微笑み が ある という よ
辿り 着く その 先に は
何 が 僕ら を 待ってる
逃げる ため じゃ なく 夢 追う ため に
旅 に 出た はずさ 遠い 夏 の あの 日
明日 さえ 見えた なら ため 息 も ない けど
流れ に 逆らう 舟 の よう に
今 は 前 へ 進め
苦しみ の 尽きた 場所 に
幸せ が 待つ という よ
僕 は 未だ 探して いる
季節 はずれ の 向日葵
古武士 握り緊め 朝日 を 待てば
赤い 爪 後 に 涙 きらり 落ちる
孤独 に も 慣れた なら
月 灯り 頼り に
羽 鳴き 翼 で 飛び 発とう
もっと 前 へ 進め
雨雲 が 切れた なら
濡れた 道 輝く
闇 だけ が 教えて くれる
強い 強い 光
強く 前 へ 進め

the previous few weeks had been a fast passing one.. 1 more week and it's the mid-term break.. last week was the week of presentations and this week, the week of quizzes and mid-term test.. hmm.. boring boring.. change topic..
was suddenly insipred to watch 1 litre of tears on youtube.. a nice jap drama tt was adapted from the real life strory of this young girl who was diagosed with the spinocerebellar athrophy disease.. highly recommended tt u watch it.. a tear-jerking show, so have tissues by your side..
once in a while, knowing the fact tt there is someone else on this earth who is less fortunate than you will make you thankful of the stuff tt you have.. and all problems tt you have just suddenly seem to pale in comparison..
but soon later, reality hits back and you wonder how to solve the problems tt u have on hand..
haha.. wat am i typing really? seems incoherent to me..
couldn't really seem to settle down and concentrate on my studies.. so many distractions.. computer games, newspapers, tv dramas.. or maybe it's just escapism.. escapism.. such a familiar situation.. but such a different context..
perhaps it's because tt yesterday was v-day.. i wonder what's wrong with me.. i remember how i used to be easily infatuated with the girls in my class back in secondary school.. but such infatuations have been lacking in presence for a long time.. afraid to be hurt again in relationships? likely.. but i guess one good thing tt has come out from the last few years is the fact tt i'm better aware of wat the character traits tt i look for in the opposite sex are.. my dream girl.. independant, has inner resilience, is more chatty than me (well tt's very easily satisfied aint it) and has a nice smile..
i guess tt isn't a v high demand, is it? had taken a look at meiju's blog earlier.. and was wondering about the views tt people hold when they enter into a relationship.. do they, perhaps unconsciously, deep down inside, enter into a relationship with the view tt it would not last long? tt it'll be just an experience? or do they go into a relationship for the long-run? i feel tt i'm personally currently looking for a relationship tt is long lasting ..
i think tt i've changed quite some bit these last few years.. became more introverted..
there's so many recurring themes in my life tt i think if i post any of them, it'll just seem to be a case of deja vu..
have been working very slightly on my next set of lyrics.. well, i really do not know how to number the lyrics anymore.. there's currently 2 sets of partially completed lyrics tt i have now.. but i guess one of them will eventually be scrapped to make way for the other.. such work on lyrics, i feel, shouldn't be dragged for too long a period.. lyrics writing should be a spontaneous affair.. pretty much like blogging.. once there is a time lag, the initial feeling tt u have attached to the lyrics or blog post just isn't there anymore..
recent dreams tt i have seem to have taken a more unpleasant tone.. not really sure if they could be called nightmares.. because i have somewhat, since i learnt about my innate ability to control dreams, felt tt nightmares are a thing of the past.. after all, i have been very successful in preventing my dreams from turning into nightmares, due to the fact tt nightmares-to-be are excellent catalysts to increasing my lucidity level.. this have helped me steer countless dreams away from taking up an ominous theme..
nonetheless, new things have been achieved once again in the realm of dream control.. one such thing is the reversal of time in the dream.. yes.. pretty fascinating stuff.. but no, u dun get to see the dream rewind in front of yr eyes.. i just rewinded myself straight to an earlier point in the dream and continued from there.. another thing, which i'm not exactly sure if it's a 1st in my personal dream control experience, is the change of scene.. well, quite literally it just means tt i changed the scene/setting of the dream..
just realised tt there r actually 5 ppl who r in e same tutorial class with me for all 4 modules.. and i had initially thought tt there was only 1.. but i guess tt's just pretty much typical of me.. oblivious to the stuff around me.. on autopilot mode most of the time..

so now it's already midway through week 2.. glad tt todae's finally over.. yeah.. e day of e 3 tutorials.. O.o and yesterday's e day of 3 lectures.. -.-
coming to e slack part of e week.. time to do some clearing of e backlog tt i've created.. yah.. just only wk 2 and i'm starting to have backlogs.. wth..
went to buy e textbooks.. ex.. -.- and i'm like almost buying 1st hand for all 5 modules, except for stats, which i bought from yee qian.. y can't they stop changing e recommended textbooks every sem? waste my money go buy 1st hand stuff.. -.-
tutorials been quite ok so far.. although lecture wise they simply can't be compared to last sem's.. this sem's lectures are just dead boring.. i mean e lecturers.. of course then again there's e exception.. e psychology lecturer's quite enthusiastic about her stuff and er hmmm.. not to mention tt she's quite young and pretty too.. =x and hmmm.. she has a PHD if i'm not wrong.. one thing to mention though, she goes through e lecture notes so fast.. wat was supposed to be a 2hr lecture ended in just 1hr..
oh ya.. i passed my driving test!!! hohoho.. let me recount wat happened on tt day.. firstly it was raining on my way there.. but i thought tt it was a good thing, cos e other drivers on e rd would then be not driving tt fast.. e rain reduced to a drizzle by e time i got to e driving centre and man.. my warm up was fast.. done in 30min, when it was supposed to last 45min.. 1st to reach back e driving centre.. and so was it for e test itself.. haha..
didn't do any e-brake or u-turn for e test.. haha.. yah yah.. lucky me.. and to think tt i could still pass after striking e kerb.. at only e 3rd obstacle for e test somemore.. but tt's my only mistake k? i didn't even get another single tick for e whole paper, save for e tick tt indicated tt i passed e test.. so 10 demerit points it was.. happy.. :)
just remembered tt i forgot to mention about e suayness tt surrounded my 22nd b'day.. well, i think i'll save e post for another day..

又是深夜时分。。 窗外下着细雨。。 近日来生活过得平平凡凡的。。 多一个礼拜就是考车的时候了。。 前几次去学驾车感觉有些不稳，
开始为我的考车担心，不知是否能及格。。 今天去学车，做了个预备式测验。。 得了30分。。 本来是能及格的，不过犯了两个不该犯的
错。。 结果无缘无故的白扣了16分。。
接下来的星期日应该没有什么特别的安排。。 也不知是为何。。 没什么心情去举办聚集会。。 可能会和朋友们有超小型的聚会，但不会
特地去约全四义的同学们来聚一聚。。
用华语来写博客真的有些不顺畅。。 说到来也是因为华语的使用率没像往日那么频繁。。 真是的。。 接下来的学期，我还将会修读现代中文歌词导读。。 O.o
近日来所作的梦还蛮校园似的。。 是我最喜欢的梦型之一。。 那种梦幻校园性的梦境。。 又能在梦里遇见喜欢看到的人。。 校园型的梦是那么的甜蜜。。
以过去的经验来说，这次的假期应是我第五首歌词出炉的时候。。 有点遗憾的说，我并没有在这假期里碰到我桌上的那个歌词草稿。。 也是因为这次的歌词是我有史以来改变得最多次的一个。。 对于歌词最终的构思，我至今并还没确定。。
就要开学了。。 上学期的成绩也已经揭晓。。 总得来说还算过得去。。 只是对我的商业法律成绩有些不满。。 也不知是怎么搞的。。 才刚刚及格。。
