Reflection time

Is it me... Or has this semester gone by wayyyyyyyyyyy too quickly? The usual trend for me is that it flies by during the first half of the semester, then it'll pass by like a snail during the middle, and before I realise, it's time for exams~
The difference with this semester and the last 5 semesters that I've been through is that it does not feel like there is a middle phase where I wish time would go a bit faster. I'm flying through this semester and it is freaking me out.

The cause of this may be due to:
---> It's my last semester
---> Assignments are distributed evenly across
---> Too much fun? <-- [This can't be true...]
--->Since it is the last semester... The things I am studying now are somehow a bit easier to understand?
---> Different approach to living? [Huh?]
---> No free days off uni [Less time to dream]
---> Less dramas therefore less things to worry about?

There are many possibilities and all of them probably contribute a little to why time is flying by faster this time around.

Sighs. I'm having one of those reflective momments and it's getting me a lil emo.

Bahhh.

Time to go to bed =P

Ciaoz ppl~

You are my love...



Sakura's version of you are my love in my opinion is better than the english version. She sounds so sad!!! Which is the whole point cuz this song is about her wanting to remember someone whom she loves so much but can't.

Translation:
There's a traveler
With a gentle gaze
Whose cheek, wet with rain
Smelled of tears

Nostalgic music
Echoes in the silence
My forgotten memories
Wander about

"Dreaming" is flying away on tiny wings
The two of us going together
To a place where my memories won't disappear
Crossing the distant sea, the sky

Shine on me
In the dark of night
And you, with your
Gentle gaze
I miss you so...





This is another one of my favourites from Tsubasa - kaze no machi he.

These songs really bring back some bittersweet memories...

Come home



I heart this song so much~

Hello world
Hope you're listening
Forgive me if I'm young
For speaking out of turn
There's someone I've been missing
I think that they could be
The better half of me
They're in their own place trying to make it right
But I'm tired of justifying
So i say you'll..

Come home
Come home
Cause I've been waiting for you
For so long
For so long
And right now there's a war between the vanities
But all i see is you and me
The fight for you is all I've ever known
So come home
Oooh

I get lost in the beauty
Of everything i see
The world ain't as half as bad
As they paint it to be
If all the sons
If all the daughters
Stopped to take it in
Well hopefully the hate subsides and the love can begin
It might start now..Yeahh
Well maybe I'm just dreaming out loud
Until then

Come home
Come home
Cause I've been waiting for you
For so long
For so long
And right now there's a war between the vanities
But all i see is you and me
The fight for you is all I've ever known
Ever known
So come home
Oooh

Everything i can't be
Is everything you should be
And that's why i need you here
Everything i can't be
Is everything you should be
And that's why i need you here
So hear this now

Come home
Come home
Cause I've been waiting for you
For so long
For so long
And right now there's a war between the vanities
But all i see is you and me
The fight for you is all I've ever known
Ever known
So come home
Come home

Our other half

I found something interesting while reading Haruki Murakami's Kafka an the Shore.


According to Aristophanes in Plato's The Banquet, in the ancient world of legend, there were three types of people. We weren't simply male or female but one of three types: Male/Female, Female/Female, and Male/Male. Each person was made out of the components of two people. But one day, God took a knife and cut everyone in half down the middle. So after that the world was just divided into male and female. The consequence of this was that people ended up spending their time running around looking for their other halves.

It's a nice way of thinking why we crave looking for that someone that completes us. We are all looking for that someone that was part of us. We often stumble along the way, find the wrong half, and encounter all sorts of problems. But I guess, while all these are happening, your other half is trying to look for you too. So somewhere, one day, two of you will eventually meet up. And that day is when you feel that completeness that you've been searching for.

Fix you...



When you try your best but you don't succeed
When you get what you want but not what you need
When you feel so tired but you can't sleep
Stuck in reverse.

And the tears come streaming down your face
When you lose something you can't replace
When you love someone but it goes to waste
Could it be worse?

Lights will guide you home
And ignite your bones
And I will try to fix you

And high up above or down below
When you're too in love to let it go
But if you never try you'll never know
"Just what your worth"

Lights will guide you home
And ignite your bones
And I will try to fix you

Tears stream, down on your face
When you lose something you cannot replace
Tears stream down your face and I...


Tears stream, down on your face
I promise you I will learn from my mistakes
Tears stream down your face and I...


Lights will guide you home
And ignite your bones
And I will try to fix you.

I hope lights do guide your way home... And I will try my best to fix you...
