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.

Ok, forgive my spazzing.
Create sth myself for a change?
.jpg)
Great. Blogger's finally back to normal. It freaked me out a few days ago when I couldn't post anything.
Phew. Was almost gg to start an account in Wordpress.
First things first. Exams are FINALLY over! HOORAY~~
Have been surfing around these days after regaining my freedom, and seen loads of inspiring stuff...They make me feel a little ashamed of myself, that i am someone who only knows how to admire/gather other people's creativity, but have created none of my own. I use blogskins/wallpapers/interfaces that others have designed. I read books written by others. I eat food prepared by others. I adopt ideas/point of views from others. What is truly my own? Is there a single thought/thing in my life that is mine? that is original?
But doesn't everybody possess creativity? Just that not everyone chooses to develop it like all these wonderful artists i've seen. Modern life, particularly city life, is crammed full of ready made products and ideas. We forget tt we can actually come up with many of those things ourselves too, and then, we gradually lose the ability to create without even realising it. In fact, why create? Waste of time isn't it? people can just get it easily from some brand/artist/shopping mall that they admire. Tragic.
So, i've decided to create something that is truly my own. Just anything to assure myself there's still this tiny spark of creativity left in me.
Ooh, some of e stuff that i've seen:
Wow, Im 'brilliant'! Yay~
Ohoho, this shall break my average record of posting only twice per month. lol~
Was blog-hopping around as usual and found this interesting 'Blogthing' on someone's blog. Im happy with e results- 'BRILLIANT' ME!! Wahaha~ Think everyone should check this out. It has a great effect on your self esteem. Hehe.
I'ld like to say tt all those positive traits are true. Just ignore e 'get stuck in e clouds' part.. Hahaa~ Im gg to try some friends' birthdays n see what I get. And maybe erhem too. Boliao me~
But it's really weird how I seem to keep reading blogs of Phillipinas in e US these few days. Hmmm.

| Your Birthdate: December 11 |
 Spiritual and thoughtful, you tend to take a step back from the world. You're very sensitive to what's going on around you, yet you remain calm. Although you are brilliant, it may take you a while to find your niche. Your creativity is supreme, but it sometimes makes it hard for you to get things done. Your strength: Your inner peace Your weakness: You get stuck in the clouds Your power color: Emerald Your power symbol: Leaf Your power month: November |

1st day of exam. well wth
**(MINOR) SPOILER ALERT!**
Seems like I've gotten hooked onto Youtube. There's always loads of interesting vids to check out, not forgetting my regular dose of DBSK <3 lol~
This past week was especially happening! Just look at this:
Kim Ah Joong in '200 Pounds Beauty'. Soo pretty~
Even though it's classified as a 'romantic comedy', I find some parts quite sad..and even thought-provoking! Well, I thought, life(or rather society) just isn't fair huh? Sometimes beautiful pple get their way so much easier in life. Tell me if tt ain't true. Don't believe? Check out e car accident scene in e movie.
LOL~!! Bet those guys won't be THAT nice to pre-surgery, 200 pounds her. Wanna bet??

Guess im happy : )
Even though there're a million things I could probably grouse about, I can safely say I'm happy now. : )
Sure, undergrad life didn't turn out as fun/relaxing as I'd imagined it to be. Think its even more 'no life' than JC. Hate doing e projects-alot of heartache which you're not even sure wld be rewarded.
But! apart from all that, I am happy, at least at this point in time. The path ahead seems clearer. Maybe because there are not too many choices to take by now. lol.
Oh Im happy, even though my Mum has taken to popping weird questions like,'Do you have a boyfriend?' and then,'Why aren't you going out with a boyfriend?'. Then she'll happily ramble on about how popular she was, e many parties she attended, her wild friends..etc..etc, making me feel like some loser. Who might stay single for the rest of her sorry life. T_T What's worse, she's not the only one who enjoys tormenting me in this way. A few times, when Bapa walks past my room, he would suddenly ask, totally out of the blue,' Don't you have a boyfriend?'
ARRGHH! Alright alright, I don't have a BF, and I just love slacking at home. So?? Seriously, if they keep this up, they're going to unbalance their daughter's mental state. She might just get desperate and decide to have a one night stand, have a baby, and maybe elope with some wanderer. Or maybe not. HAHAA~!
Oh well. I must still be thankful-at least I don't need to undergo the annual CNY grilling by pesky relatives. Heard it's even worse then. Phew~ Anybody has any CNY horror stories to share? hehheh.
Ok just for fun- look at my hubby..he even looks cute as a penguin! Wahaha!!

Poems- Ageing and Death
Sometimes, I wish my brain was like an inexhaustible database. Wouldn't it be nice if I could remember all the cool stuff I've read in their entirety? Well actually the brain is like that, isn't it? Just that mine was probably not wired properly, so every time I slot in some new component, another gets overwritten. sigh.
Which is why I need to put things down in words. And why I shall post (yet) more poems today.
Do you believe in an afterlife? in whatever form?
Do Not Stand At My Grave And Weep
Do not stand at my grave and weep;
I am not there. I do not sleep.
I am a thousand winds that blow.
I am the diamond glints on snow.
I am the sunlight on ripened grain.
I am the gentle autumn rain.
When you awaken in the morning's hush
I am the swift uplifting rush
Of quiet birds in circled flight.
I am the soft stars that shine at night.
Do not stand at my grave and cry;
I am not there. I did not die.
notes: This poem was left in an envelope for his parents by a British soldier Steven Cummins, killed on active service in Northern Ireland, to be opened in the event of his death. Apparently, it wasn't written by him, and its origins are unknown...
When You Are Old
When you are old and grey and full of sleep,
And nodding by the fire, take down this book,
And slowly read, and dream of the soft look
Your eyes had once, and of their shadows deep;
How many loved your moments of glad grace,
And loved your beauty with love false or true,
But one man loved the pilgrim soul in you,
And loved the sorrows of your changing face;
And bending down beside the glowing bars,
Murmur, a little sadly, how Love fled
And paced upon the mountains overhead
And hid his face amid a crowd of stars.
by W.B.Yeats
Another poem-wistful~ I wonder if I would feel lk this when Im old. In fact, I alrdy feel lk this, at least what's described in the 1st stanza. Sometimes I look in the mirror and find that my eyes have changed. They look harder, less vulnerable. Is that a good or bad change?

Ryo Kase~~
I think Clint Eastwood should have won Best Director for this year's Oscars, instead of Martin Scorsese.
I mean, Infernal Affairs didn't even have an original plot, and the HK original was still better. Ok, Iwo Jima was based on Gen. Kuribayashi's journal, but it wasn't entirely cut-n-paste material..Im not saying Scorsese doesn't deserve any Oscar at all, but why didn't the jury award him for his other, better (and original) films?
Anyway, this was sparked off after watching Iwo Jima recently. Somebody told me it was funny, and I was like,'What?? isn't it supposed to be one of those sad, poignant films? why funny?' You know what? She was half right- it did have some amusing bits. One particular scene where they suddenly cried, 'Long Live the Emperor' in unison just sent me chortling. I dunno why, the way they did it was just highly amusing to me.
Isn't there a popular belief that there's at least 1 stranger in the world who looks like you? Hey, maybe that's true.
Because there's this guy in Iwo Jima who really looks alot like *gasp* Micky!! Monki said he looks lk an improved version of Micky. (nope, i don't agree Monki!) He plays Shimizu, e kind hearted Kempeitai. The minute I saw him emerge from a helicopter in the rain, i went,' OMG! Micky!!' After that, I was like,' Please don't die please don't die~' So you can imagine my sadness when he did. sigh.
Some pple might say he died a coward, desperately clutching that white towel to his chest lk that, but I think otherwise. He saw that the so called 'foreign savages' were every bit as human as he was, and even their mothers were lk his own. What exactly was his fighting for? For the pride and honor of the Imperial Army? which expected the soliders to 'die in glory' for the Motherland all on their own without reinforcements? How do you do what's right? Does any right or wrong even exist in a war? I think Shimizu just saw the pointlessness of it all. Maybe he believed the right thing to do then was to surrender, because he believed his enemies were humane enough not to kill him. In other words, his surrender was an act of faith. But maybe faith doesn't exist in a war, because he became a tragic victim of it.
Ooh, the actor's name is Ryo Kase. He was in Nobody Knows too, as e minimart employee! I didn't know that!

walkin' in e sunshine
Somebody asked me where my ideal honeymoon destination would be.
I said i didn't know yet, but for now it'ld be a place with neverending grassplains/meadows and streams. We'll just lie right there, feel the wind and sunshine on our faces, and be happy simply because we're together, in that peaceful place. Yeah, guys! I'm a low maintainence girlfriend! HAHAA~
On second thought, best to have a good shopping spot. lol.
Even I don't know where this place might be. Maybe New Zealand? Does anyone know of such a place? What's your ideal honeymoon?
But for now, I can only dream, because i lack the 2 most important prerequisites for it to come true. Go figure. So, I'll just imagine myself strolling in a meadow with my (imaginary)dog Scruff. Note the matching slippers. hehheh.

Happy Valentines' day to myself
I think im suffering a slight case of the HFV snydrome. Hunger for viewership snydrome.
Hahahaa~! I just coined a new acronym!
Seriously, i find myself checking out how many people have viewed my Youtube channel and blog every now and then. Of course alot of people say they blog for their own pleasure, but who wouldnt like to see people actually leaving comments for them? I get a rush of satisfaction and 'self-achievement' when I see that my viewership has increased, and get strangely disappointed when it hasn't. Therefore, the side effects of HFV- alternating obsession and depression.
Clearly, this is not a very healthy state of mind. But it seems like im not alone in this condition.
A recent study states that a v. high percentage( forgot how high exactly) of teenagers and young pple
check viewership on their virtual accounts everyday.
My brother is one living example. Every night, without fail, he'll check how many people have viewed his
Friendster profile. Particularly the number of girls. Anyway, I better curb this obsession before it becomes full blown. I dont want to blog just for the sake of getting more readers.

Pieces of me everywhere
I connected with this poem immediately, probably because I'm an untidy person too? Haha~
Sometimes I feel like there're so many odd little pieces of me everywhere, that I cannot safely say
which makes me me, because they are all part of me. Sometimes I may be physically here, but I'll
be somewhere else inside my head. Oh dear, this came out sounding a little weird. Anyway,
Slatten
I leave myself about, slattenly,
bits of me, and times I liked:
I let them go on lying where
they fall, crumple, if they will.
I know fine how to make them walk
and breathe again. Sometimes at night,
or on the train, I dream I'm dancing,
or lying in someone's arms who says
he loves my eyes in French, and again
and again I am walking up your road,
that first time, bidden and wanted,
the blossom on the trees, light,
light and buoyant. Pull yourself
together, they say, quite rightly,
but she is stubborn, that girl,
that hopeful one, still walking.

luv Singapura~
Check out this video! After watching, I realised how much I love this little red dot of a country.
I was like,"Yah that's soo true!" and laughing throughout the viewing. Hahahaa~! The person who did the
animation has a wicked sense of humour! Even found myself singing along to the chorus.
That's how good this vid is.
Right, will not reveal any spoilers. Watch it for yourself. ; )

Happy new year~
Tada~! How do you find my new blogskin? Before you label me as 'another besotted hua chi', hear me out. Got several reasons for using this skin, beside the obvious one that it displays five shuai ge(s). Which happens to have my darling situated almost in the centre.. hehheh.
Was walking home after an impromptu countdown sleepover at Monki's place, when I just started to get unusually thoughtful. (Want to know what we did to usher in 2007? Something super lame, actually. You might have already guessed.) Was reflecting on my favourite theme of late- age. FYI, the DBSK guys are around my age, while one of them is even 2 years my junior. While some of us are still floundering around doing god knows what, they have already built a successful career and are going on to greater things. That single thought depresses me.
Therefore! In this new year I will try to catch up with them in my own way. Either academically or otherwise. More action, less talk! And thus the self motivating blogskin. haha~

What am I doing?
So, the dreaded day came...and went. Sigh.
At least it turned out to be quite a happy day, because I bought a fabulous present for myself-a DBSK CD!!
WAHAHAHA~~ And I'm also waiting to get 'that' present from you, Monki.....
Do you sometimes wonder what the hell you are doing with your life? I do, and very often too. Even more often since my birthday. Sometimes you see these people who are your age, already carving out a niche for themselves in whatever field, and then you realise you haven't exactly accomplished anything. Very depressing thought.
Would making an early resolution for the coming year help? Hmm..resolutions seem to be made so I can feel pious and less guilty. "At least im making an effort", I tell myself. And then I conveniently forget all about it.
I just took this 'what tarot card are you?' quiz. It says Im about to come across something/someone 'that is so much a part of myself..that I cannot, dare not resist'. Whoa..sounds interesting! It even goes to the point of saying that I will 'know instinctively' that I must have the something/someone, even if it means diverging from my chosen path. Alright, am not getting younger-better buck up from now on~

Can I NOT turn 20?
The terrible onset of age!!!
A gentle reminder to all those concerned ( with giving me presents) --my BIRTHDAY is approaching. Though I dont really want to remember it this time round..After this birthday, it'll be sayonara to my already distant teenagehood. Noooo~
I feel so old.
A while ago, I felt depressed when I see those secondary school girls. They have this look that only girls of their age have-vibrant, very happy and carefree. Now, I get depressed when I see secondary school and JC girls. To put it simply, I feel o.l.d.
For me at least, I was happiest in secondary school, especially in lower sec. Even though we were kind of idiotic at that age, there was always something to do or look forward to. Maybe it was because I was more easily amused at that time. Sigh~ JC wasn't exactly a bundle of fun, but well, it had certain redeeming points.
Truth is, I dont want to grow any older beyond my 18 year old mind and body. If you could choose which age to remain as, what age would you prefer? Most probably 18 for me. 16 is a little undeveloped, 20 seems unexciting, but 18 is an age full of possibilities. Another reason I dont want to grow any older is some very unfair social perceptions.
Why do women have to be young to be beautiful? Guys just get more attractive with age, and are called "bachelors", whereas older women are considered "over the hill" , unattractive "spinsters"/ "old maids". Why?? Cant we age elegantly?
Anyway, I have walked around quite alot these days, and seen some very nice stuff. And many things I 've been wanting suddenly comes to mind. *hint hint* So I thought I'd compile them into a wishlist. ( which is in my 'icecream addict' profile) * HINT HINT*
A gentle reminder to all those concerned ( with giving me presents) --my BIRTHDAY is approaching. Though I dont really want to remember it this time round..After this birthday, it'll be sayonara to my already distant teenagehood. Noooo~
I feel so old.
A while ago, I felt depressed when I see those secondary school girls. They have this look that only girls of their age have-vibrant, very happy and carefree. Now, I get depressed when I see secondary school and JC girls. To put it simply, I feel o.l.d.
For me at least, I was happiest in secondary school, especially in lower sec. Even though we were kind of idiotic at that age, there was always something to do or look forward to. Maybe it was because I was more easily amused at that time. Sigh~ JC wasn't exactly a bundle of fun, but well, it had certain redeeming points.

Is anybody still watching TV these days? Im now addicted to Youtube- the greatest invention since chocolate (and ice cream) . Haha~
Have been watching a lot of Korean variety shows recently, discovering a whole host of v interesting Korean entertainers, and also my most recent object of obsession. Hehhehheh. It all started one fine day when I decided to look up Princess Hours videos and clicked on some of the accompanying links. At first it was just a song, then to a particularly cute vid of my obsession, and a super funny variety show. The rest is history.
*P.S. THE FOLLOWING IS PURE CRAP. YOU DON HAVE TO READ IF YOU HAVE BETTER THINGS TO DO.* ( which is unlikely, since you are reading my blog.)
Do you feel bored and listless? Find yourself stoning while watching television? Then here is your lifesaver---Korean variety shows! They are really entertaining, excellent destressers.
There! I have done my part for Youtube.
So anyway, if you haven't watched Youtube vids, come back to earth-watch today~~
