14.10.11 (Friday)

At last I'm writing the blog post that I wanted to write on Friday. I felt kinda freaked out that day. I seriously can't believe how forgetful I am. My aunt told me that morning to send an email for her (she's not really familiar with computers) sometime during the day and told me a couple of times not to forget (cause I always forget things). I had to go to the library first, and when I got there I thought I'd send the email first before I forgot. When I got to the end of the email I didn't know how to finish it (I didn't know if the recipient was her friend or someone else, and I was never really good in writing letters and emails anyway). Talking on the phone is not allowed in the library so I couldn't ask her about it. So I had to send the email later at my parents' shop. I closed my iPad and put it in my bag and right at the moment I closed my iPad, I had forgotten all about sending the email until nighttime when my aunt asked me about it. She said: "Oh! You forgot again! I told you not to forget!". I don't think it was even a minute between typing the email and forgetting about it. After going to the library, I went to my parents' shop to help out. My mom told me to bring over the blue evening gown by the storage room to the rack by the changing room and when I got to the gown she told me to do something else (forgot what it was). Later she said: "Hey! What about the blue evening gown?". Right at the moment I walked away from the gown to do the other thing my mom asked I had fogotten all about bringing the gown over to the rack. Pretty freaky.

My mom went to see a Chinese Medicine doctor and she said that always forgetting things is due to the liver not working properly and not being healthy enough. I guess that is true cause I'm always sleeping late and not getting enough sleep. The liver heals/replenishes itself (or something along those lines - not sure how to translate 養肝 into English) between 11 pm and 1 am. I tell myself I need to sleep earlier but I end up sleeping late again (like I am now).

Anyway, it was pretty freaky how I could forget things so quickly and easily.

New blog!

I have just created a new blog called "I love mooks!".  It's a blog about music and books I listen to and read. So from now on, I'll be posting my favourite music in that blog instead of this one.  Check it out!

Shut Up - Simple Plan

"So Shut up Shut up Shut up
Don't wanna hear it
Get out Get out Get out
Get out of my way
Step up Step up Step up
You'll never stop me
Nothing you say today
Is gonna bring me down"

"Don't tell me who I should be
And don't try to tell me what's right for me
Don't tell me what I should do
I don't wanna waste my time
I'll watch you fade away"


Welcome to My Life - Simple Plan

"To be hurt, to feel lost
To be left out in the dark
To be kicked when you're down
To feel like you've been pushed around
To be on the edge of breaking down
And no one's there to save you
No, you don't know what it's like
Welcome to my life"

     The new school year is almost starting and I haven't found something to study yet.  I've just finished Year 1 of  the Higher Diploma in Commercial Design 2 year course, and I don't want to continue studying it because I don't think it's really right for me.  Also, my grades aren't that good and I don't think I really fit in (Everyone in my class are from local Hong Kong schools while I'm from an international school, so I don't understand what they're saying sometimes.  I don't have true friends there either.  Also, everyone keeps asking me questions about English and when the teachers don't know, they say "Ask her!  Ask her!  She knows.  She's from an international school." and I hate that).  So I've been looking and I haven't made a decision yet.  Everyone is asking me questions about school:  "So school's starting soon, huh?", "What are you studying?", "What do you want to do?", "You should find something you really like and study that."  I've had enough and I want everyone to shut up and leave me alone!  I know I have to find something to study really soon but I haven't found something suitable yet (It's either not something I really want to do or it's too expensive).  My dad keeps telling me to study this or study that but I don't want to study the things he tells me.  Right now, he keeps telling me to study to become a pet stylist because I can care for animals and it is a good business to work in.  I keep telling him that I don't want to do it and he asks how I would know if I haven't tried.  But liking animals doesn't mean I want to do something animal related.  If I really was going to do something animal related, I'd rather be rescuing animals than styling and pampering them.

Favourite music of the week (15-21.8.2011):

Lucifer - SHINee



Welcome to My Life - Simple Plan

Lyrics:

Do you ever feel like breaking down?
Do you ever feel out of place,
Like somehow you just don't belong
And no one understands you

Do you ever wan to run away?
Do you lock yourself in your room?
With the radio on turned up so loud
That no one hears you're screaming

No, you don't know what it's like
When nothing feels alright
You don't know what it's like
To be like me...

To be hurt, to feel lost
To be left out in the dark
To be kicked when you're down
To feel like you've been pushed around
To be on the edge of breaking down
And no one's there to save you
No, you don't know what it's like
Welcome to my life

Do you wanna be somebody else?
Are you sick of feeling so left out?
Are you desperate to find something more
Before your life is over?
Are you stuck inside a world you hate?
Are you sick of everyone around?
With their big fake smiles and stupid lies
While deep inside you're bleeding

No, you don't know what it's like
When nothing feels alright
You don't know what it's like
To be like me...

To be hurt, to feel lost
To be left out in the dark
To be kicked when you're down
To feel like you've been pushed around
To be on the edge of breaking down
And no one's there to save you
No you don't know what it's like
Welcome to my life

No one ever lied straight to your face
And no one ever stabbed you in the back
You might think I'm happy
But I'm not gonna be okay
Everybody always gave you what you wanted
You never had to work
It was always there
You don't know what it's like
What it's like

To be hurt, to feel lost
To be left out in the dark
To be kicked when you're down
To feel like you've been pushed around
To be on the edge of breaking down
And no one's there to save you
No, you don't know what it's like
What it's like

To be hurt, to feel lost
To be left out in the dark
To be kicked when you're down
To feel like you've been pushed around
To be on the edge of breaking down
And no one's there to save you
No, you don't know what it's like
Welcome to my life (3x)


Shut Up - Simple Plan

Lyrics:

There you go
You're always so right
It's all a big show
It's all about you

You think you know
What everyone needs
You always take time
To criticize me

It seems like everyday
I make mistakes
I just can't get it right
It's like I'm the one
You love to hate
But not today

So Shut up Shut up Shut up
Don't wanna hear it
Get out Get out Get out
Get out of my way
Step up Step up Step up
You'll never stop me
Nothing you say today
Is gonna bring me down

There you go
You never ask why
It's all a big lie
Whatever you do

You think you're special
But I know and I know and I know
And we know
That you're not

You're always there to point out
My mistakes
And shove them in my face
It's like I'm the one
You love to hate
But not today

So Shut up Shut up Shut up
Don't wanna hear it
Get out Get out Get out
Get out of my way
Step up Step up Step up
You'll never stop me
Nothing you say today
Is gonna bring me down
(Shut up Shut up Shut up)
Is gonna bring me down
(Shut up Shut up Shut up)
Will never bring me down

Don't tell me who I should be
And don't try to tell me what's right for me
Don't tell me what I should do
I don't wanna waste my time
I'll watch you fade away

So Shut up Shut up Shut up
Don't wanna hear it
Get out Get out Get out
Get out of my way
Step up Step up Step up
You'll never stop me
Nothing you say today
Is gonna bring me down

Shut up Shut up Shut up
Don't wanna hear it
Get out Get out Get out
Get out of my way
Step up Step up Step up
You'll never stop me
Nothing you say today
Is gonna bring me down

Bring me down
(Shut up Shut up Shut up)
Won't bring me down
(Shut up Shut up Shut up)
Bring me down
(Shut up Shut up Shut up)
Won't bring me down

Shut up Shut up Shut up

Lyrics to the songs posted earlier

Lucifer - SHINee
.

숨을 곳도 찾지 못해 나는 피하려고 애써봐도
sumeul gotdo chatji motae naneun piharyeogo aesseobwado
거부조차 할 수 없는 네게 갇혀버린 나
geobujocha hal su eomneun nege gatyeobeorin na
사랑이었다면 정말 사랑했던 거라면 내게 이러지는 말아
sarangieotdamyeon jeongmal saranghaetdeon georamyeon naege ireojineun mara
Her whisper is the LUCIFER

*나를 묶고 가둔다면 사랑도 묶인 채 미래도 묶인 채 커질 수 없는데
*nareul mukkgo gadundamyeon sarangdo mukkin chae miraedo mukkin chae keojil su eomneunde
자유롭게 비워놓고 바라봐 오직 너만 채울게 너만 가득 채울게
jayuropge biwonoko barabwa ojik neoman chaeulge neoman gadeuk chaeulge
거부 할 수 없는 너의 마력은 LUCIFER
geobu hal su eomneun neoui maryeogeun LUCIFER
거부 할 수 없는 너의 마법은 LUCIFER
geobu hal su eomneun neoui mabeobeun LUCIFER
다가서면 너는 마치 천사 같은 얼굴로 나를 사는 이유라 말하고, 말하고
dagaseomyeon neoneun machi cheonsa gateun eolgullo nareul saneun iyura malhago, malhago



너를 처음 봤을 때 짧은 순간 멈춰버렸지
neoreul cheoeum bwasseul ttae jjarbeun sungan meomchwobeoryeotji
누가 마치 내 심장을 꽉 쥔 채 놓지 않는 것처럼 (아직까지도)
nuga machi nae simjangeul kkwak jwin chae nochi annneun geotcheoreom (ajikkkajido)
너는 그렇게 내 맘을 다, 다, 다, 다, 다, 다 가져놓고
neoneun geureoke nae mameul da, da, da, da, da, da gajyeonoko
니가 없으면 내 맘이 다 타버리게 만든다
niga eobseumyeon nae mami da tabeorige mandeunda

* Repeat

너와 같이 나눈 사랑얘기들 나랑 같은 곳을 바라보는 너
neowa gachi nanun sarangyaegideul narang gateun goseul baraboneun neo
우리 더 이상은 완벽해질 수 없다고 느꼈을 때
uri deo isangeun wanbyeokhaejil su eopdago neukkyeosseul ttae
나만 쳐다봐. 너는 더, 더, 더, 더, 더, 더 나를 원해
naman chyeodabwa. neoneun deo, deo, deo, deo, deo, deo nareul wonhae
나만 바라봐. 모든 게, 게, 게, 게, 게, 게 니가 중심
naman barabwa. modeun ge, ge, ge, ge, ge, ge niga jungsim
언제부턴가 조금씩 잘못된 것 같아 이상한 너

날 알던 사람들 모두 하나 둘씩 곁을 떠나 난 가진 게 너뿐이고
nal aldeon saramdeul modu hana dulssik gyeoteul tteona nan gajin ge neoppunigo

* Repeat

마치 유리성에 갇혀버린 삐에로만 된 것 같아
machi yuriseonge gatyeobeorin ppieroman doen geot gata
절대 만족 없는 너를 위해 춤을 추는 나
jeoldae manjok eomneun neoreul wihae chumeul chuneun na
훤히 들여다보고 뇌를 만져 바보 된 것 같아
hwonhi deullyeodabogo noereul manjyeo babo doen geot gata
난 점점 네게 끌려가는 것만 같은데
nan jeomjeom nege kkeullyeoganeun geotman gateunde
Loverhollic, Robotronic, Loverhollic, Robotronic.

니가 미운 건 아냐 싫단 것도 아냐 단지 그런 눈빛이 부담일 뿐
niga miun geon anya sirtan geotdo anya danji geureon nunbichi budamil ppun
어디 안가 이렇게 난 너만 바라보고 기다려 왔잖아
eodi anga ireoke nan neoman barabogo gidaryeo watjanha

Rap:
너의 눈빛이 날 사로잡다 날이 지날수록 날카로워졌다
neoui nunbichi nal sarojapda nari jinalsurok nalkarowojyeotda
너의 집착에 지쳤다 많이 베었다 맘에 피가 난다
neoui jipchage jichyeotda manhi beeotda mame piga nanda
나 쓰러질 쯤 되면 다가와서 천사같이 “사랑해”란 말
na sseureojil jjeum doemyeon dagawaseo cheonsagachi “saranghae”ran mal
누가 진짜 너였는지 알다
nuga jinjja neoyeonneunji alda

* Repeat

마치 유리성에 갇혀버린 삐에로만 된 것 같아
machi yuriseonge gatyeobeorin ppieroman doen geot gata
나를 냅둬 자유로워 질 때 너를 진짜 사랑할 수 있고
nareul naepdwo jayurowo jil ttae neoreul jinjja saranghal su itgo
훤히 들여다보고 뇌를 만져 바보 된 것 같아h
wonhi deullyeodabogo noereul manjyeo babo doen geot gata
나를 냅둬 질리게도 말고 너를 진짜 바라볼 수 있게
nareul naepdwo jilligedo malgo neoreul jinjja barabol su itge

나를 묶고 가둔다면 사랑도 묶인 채 미래도 묶인 채 커질 수 없는데

Boulevard of Broken Dreams - Green Day

I walk a lonely road
The only one that I have ever known
Don't know where it goes
But it's home to me and I walk alone

I walk this empty street
On the Boulevard of Broken Dreams
Where the city sleeps
And I'm the only one and I walk alone

I walk alone. I walk alone
I walk alone. I walk a--

My shadow's the only one that walks beside me
My shallow heart's the only thing that's beating
Sometimes I wish someone out there will find me
'Til then I walk alone

Ah-ah, Ah-ah, Ah-ah, Aaah-ah,
Ah-ah, Ah-ah, Ah-ah

I'm walking down the line
That divides me somewhere in my mind
On the borderline of the edge

And where I walk alone

Read between the lines of what's

Fucked up when everything's alright
Check my vital signs to know I'm still alive

And I walk alone

I walk alone. I walk alone
I walk alone. I walk a--

My shadow's the only one that walks beside me
My shallow heart's the only thing that's beating
Sometimes I wish someone out there will find me
'Til then I walk alone

Ah-ah, Ah-ah, Ah-ah, Aaah-ah
Ah-ah, Ah-ah

I walk alone. I walk a--

I walk this empty street
On the Boulevard of Broken Dreams
Where the city sleeps
And I'm the only one and I walk alone

My shadow's the only one that walks beside me
My shallow heart's the only thing that's beating
Sometimes I wish someone out there will find me
'Til then I walk alone
