Is this life?

For a long time now, I've felt tt my life is like this..

Bus stop

Lights are burning
In quiet rooms
Where lives go on
Resembling ours.

The quiet lives
That follow us-
These lives we lead
But do not own-

Stand in the rain
So quietly
When we are gone,
So quietly...

And the last bus
Comes letting dark
Umbrellas out-
Black flowers, black flowers.

And lives go on.
And lives go on
Like sudden lights
At street corners

Or like the lights
In quiet rooms
Left on for hours,
Burning, burning.

Donald Justice

.....My life is just one of many tiny flames, burning, burning....towards inevitable extinguishing in a quiet room. Everyday is like every other day. Mine is the same as hers/his/theirs. Perhaps it's not truly my life, since there's little part of me in it.
Perhaps some of us sit, in mutual loneliness, even when surrounded with friends, waiting...
waiting for something, someone to arrive. Presuming it would ever arrive. How many of us really own our lives? How many more live it out for the sake of living?

That's why:

'Ah, love, let us be true
to one another! for the world, which seems
to lie before us like a land of dreams,
So various, so beautiful, so new,
Hath really neither joy, nor love, nor light,
Nor certitude, nor peace, nor help for pain;
And we are here as on a darkling plain
Swept with confused alarms of struggle and flight,
where ignorant armies clash by night.'

-quoted from 'Dover beach' by Matthew Arnold

For all the beauty in the world is only deceptively so, and more can be 'enjoyed' for a price. How cynical, huh. lol.
Consider a world without humans/animals-beautiful as it is, what joy is there? The only real, priceless comfort we have can only be found in each other.

Look, my v.own daemon~

Got linked to e official site for this new upcoming movie based on 1 of my fav books 'The Golden Compass'. And look what i found~ my own daemon xD





Cute, just like me. Wahaha~
So what do u think? Does this best represent me?

AHhhh~Im such a techno-noob

There seems to be some problem with my recent Chinese post, so i took it down for e time being. Apparently the HTML code is visible..though i don't see anything wrong in my Firefox browser T_T
Y like tt???!
Suspect it's because i cut and paste from Word instead of inputting the entry directly in Blogger...but every time i try to do that, e characters turn out in those weird symbols, which makes it impossible for me to read what im typing. TT_TT
Just as I think im getting e hang on technology, it hits me tt i don't even know how to control the simplest settings in my own blog. Sigh. Modern city life and its many difficulties. Lol~
Shall try again ltr.

情深似海

我的第一篇中文稿耶。哈哈。

这其实是很久以前写的。。因为最近又翻来读，所以决定‘登’出来。

是电影「情深似海」的观后感。看得我边笑边哭的。。韩剧就是有这种莫名其妙的魅力！

如果有一天

我失去了记忆，

不记得家人·朋友，

甚至你。

你还会爱我吗？

如果知道自己将有这么一天，

我还会勇敢地爱着你吗？

失去了记忆，我算失去了灵魂。。。吗？

即使知道可能会很痛苦

随时粉身碎骨，

我还是想尝试

努力又勇敢地爱一次。

Dona Nobis Pacem

Oh dear, i think e pic's too small. Ah~ i tried. If u want to see what's written on it, please click on e image.
To start this off, 'Dona Nobis Pacem' is Latin for 'Grant Us Peace'. I got e main pic from this lady who started this blog movement some time ago (last yr?). Basically, her idea's to spread a powerful message on this day (6/6/07) whereby all bloggers will post e same thing/pic wishing for peace. Read Mimi's thoughtful post on how it all started...So now u see how free i am. lol~

[EDIT] Wow. It's working. I just goggled e words 'Dona Nobis Pacem' n it came up with over 2000 results for blog entries! n e blog count's probably increasing by e minute. Incredible.

Woohoo~ Cuba!

Am now in a 'Cuba' phase. Haha! Just watched 'Dirt Dancing: Havana Nights' featuring 2 awesome dancers (Diego Lunas <3~) , n some great music! Liked many of e songs, so i did a search on Imeem...and now im hooked. lol~
Also found loads of colourful pics of this sunny Mediterranean country. Gosh, e women's dresses are extradinary. Their cars are cute, too.

It's e dork's Birthday~ xD

I shall sing in a penguin outfit~
Happy birthday to u
happy birthday to u~
Happy Birthday to Micky~~
happy birthday to uuuuuuu~

It's Park Yoochun a.k.a Micky's birthday today~! Stay dorky always~ Though there's less than half an hr left..
LOL.
Hope he had a great day.

Ok, forgive my spazzing.
