Love, mystery.

How many of us use the word LOVE too frequently
it hardly means anything special anymore.
It's a word I have lots of respect for,
and to say it when you really mean it,
it takes a lot, a lot of courage.
I sometimes struggle to voice that one word
even to the people closest to me.


Love - wordless, unencumbered, and beautiful.

- Richard Matheson (The Box)

This line really touched me somehow, like Brian and his Avatar? Hah.

It's all like a trudge, an endless one.

How I wish I knew exactly what my future is.

Thwarted at times, and I just feel like giving up.

But when you wake up in the morning, it's yet another day

and you've gotta face it no matter what.

Perhaps things have to be bad once in a while, isn't it?

Or else how'd we appreciate the good ones coming our way.





And yes, I'm having trouble sleeping again. That's why I'm here.
I really am a freaking insomniac.

Introducing..

Joanna Wang.
Not sure how many of you are aware of her. She isn't a stunning looking singer, but definitely a very musically talented newcomer. Just listen to her voice, it stands out from any other artistes. Can't embed her videos here, but For No Reason is a darn good song. I personally prefer the chinese version. Click here to view it on Youtube. Her other songs I like are Lost In Paradise, As Love Begins To Mend, The Best Mistake I've Ever Made & Lost Taipei.

Another awesome one! I've kinda been digging out old songs. Khalil Fong's 總結 from SoulBoy. That's a really good album I think, has great songs like 每天每天, 春風吹, 南音 and others. Sadly, no MV for it too. I slept with this song playing in my head, and I woke up to it as well. His songs make me so wanna get a guitar here! Gosh..

Hope you enjoy the songs! =)

3rd year anniversary

Blink of eye and it's already been a whole 2 years. Being in Melbourne I mean. It doesn't feel real at all, as if it was all a dream, one that flew past a bit too quickly. Memories of that morning I left still crystal clear in my mind, can't believe its two years now.

Alright, this just emphasizes that I'm getting old soon.
Still not adjusted to the fact that I'm turning 20 in no time.

This will go on forever if I were to reflect on years 2008/09. There's just too much going on. Despite the occasional tears, they were good times, really.

And I truly appreciate everyone that stepped into my life one way or another, and everything that occurred. It's all these ups and downs that make me who I am.



Spent the 2nd half of my day watching Sherlock Holmes with Daryl, Chris, Joseph and Yuki. Dinner with the guys after that since Yuki had to study, apparently. Haha! Well, how I miss those days we used to hang out in massive groups. When's the next time it's gonna happen again?

Don't Know Why

I'm addicted to it again. What a song!! And her singing rocks. =)

I waited till I saw the sun, I don't know why I didn't come
I left you by the house of fun, I don't know why I didn't come

When I saw the break of day, I wished that I could fly away
Instead of kneeling in the sand, Catching teardrops in my hand

My heart is drenched in wine, You'll be on my mind, forever

Out across the endless sea, I would die in ecstasy
But I'll be a bag of bones, Driving down the road alone

My heart is drenched in wine, You'll be on my mind, forever

Something has to make you run, I don't know why I didn't come
I feel as empty as a drum, I don't know why I didn't come

Summer

15 hours per week of 2 subjects is ridiculous. Business Finance is officially killing me with MID SEMESTER test on Wednesday. Yeah, it's middle of the semester before I even realize it. I guess it's actually not that hard, but cramming 12 weeks' work into 4 just isn't fun.

Internet got off limit, which explains why I had disappeared for more than a week.Wasn't too bad since it proved that I can actually survive pretty well without it. Although I got slightly outdated, like in Jia Hui's case. Ahem.

I'm still very not used to the late sunsets here.

Does this look like 930pm to you?

 This is what I mean by getting dark brown, see the contrast?
Anyone could tell I've been wearing slippers.

現在 我很幸福

This song has been stuck in my head since the day I flew back, cuz I was listening to it on the plane. Enjoy the song. I love it! Accompaniment might be off, can't really hear cuz my laptop volume is just too low, even the max.

他的手掌有種粗糙的體貼  他在我需要時候出現身邊

被你傷的那些 崩潰眼淚  多虧他無私的奉陪

哪天要是和你真的再見面  誰都不要再提醒那一段從前

有些事不面對 反而安心安全  你無權再動搖我的世界

哪天要是和你真的再見面  我不會提到最後和他的一切

面對不愛的人 我終於諒解了  曾經你用無言畫的句點

現在我有了幸福 有人照顧 應該知足

你不像他 從不讓我哭

可是我越想投入 越是生疏 抱的再緊

依舊止不住那流失的溫度

現在我不停忙碌 不斷讓步 想看清楚

你不像他 把我當成全部

可是愛有時善良 有時殘酷 我要如何

愛他像愛你那樣義無反顧

A-Lin - 現在我很幸福 《以前，以後》

OK, I see how my blog is flooded with clips. I think the next time I do record something it will only be in my Youtube channel, unless I find it really special. Hehe.

How am I gonna survive this

Melbourne is such a dead city. Like REAL DEAD alright, and I'm not kidding. Even restaurants aren't open everywhere. Went to so many places before settling down for lunch since everywhere near uni is closed. Don't tell me I gotta bear with Subway and KFC for lunch in the next 2 months.

Chris's birthday today, again only managed to dine at the 3rd restaurant cuz the previous 2 were closed as well. Only 3 of us around, how depressing.

Perhaps it feels really quiet here cuz I haven't got many friends around at this time. And my whole house is empty and quiet. This always make me start thinking about stuff that kinda brings me down a bit.

Oh well, would get too busy for any of this. 1st test in 2 weeks time, and a 3000 words assignment to hand in sometime soon.

Good luck to myself

I love window seats on the plane.
Esp when you get to see the sunset.
So beautiful, yet so short.

Only if all good things were to last a little longer...

失戀無罪

I have just fallen in love with guitar once again, thanks to Eilene! Been spending quite some time on the guitar since I'm back, and this beautiful song caught my attention few days back. So this is my first guitar recording. Alright, I know I suck at guitar, but I still enjoy playing it. And I think singing with guitar sounds better than piano. =)

你說我對你緊緊跟隨 你覺得疲憊

你一句話就逼我撤退

沒想到你說最近選擇 一個人睡

我忍住眼淚 我尊重眼淚

孤獨萬歲 失戀無罪 誰保證 一覺醒來有人陪

我對於 人性早有預備 還不算太黑

獨身萬歲 失戀無罪 愛不夠 愛你的人才受罪

用過去 悲傷換來自由 難道不珍貴

一個人崩潰 不是在犯罪

A Lin - 失戀無罪

2nd album! I think it's of really high quality, just like the first one. No wonder it's sold out everywhere, and the top seller in many other Asian countries. The super long wait was definitely worth it. Enjoy the entire album so much, from the songs to the packaging, front cover, designs; absolutely every single part of it! =)

Tracks 2 4 6 8 11 are the ones I totally LOVE. But all the rest are all awesome as well.

找一條有你的街

找一種回家的感覺

（是時候停下的感覺）

傳説中的歸根落葉 曾經多不屑

原來最渴望的 不過這些
