SoNG : Blue by Utada Hikaru
the title says it all. Utada Hikaru's songs are quite captivating ah. no, no...don't get me wrong.....they juz sounds nice and pleasant to me, especialy with all those voice gymnastics that she does in the chorus parts. If you love her older songs, you will certainly fall for her new album, UltraBlue. It's released quite a while back, but heard it juz arrived in the west, so it'll be pretty new stuff for em.
so, i shall "infect" you with my *passion* and liking for J-pop (** oh no sounds like the 3 testimonials hahax) with the newly added mp3 player (bottom of the webpage - not the scrolling text). It's a simple yet simple-to-use flash player, so I'm gonna rotate songs occassionally and hope u guys will enjoy =)
hmm thought i will restart my old blogging tradition : songs rotation( as explained above) and fact of the day!!
Fact of the day : The electric discharge of an electric eel can start 50 cars !! super elec-terrifying.
Mo0D : frustrated
it only dawned on me that today is officially last day of an illustrous JC school life when I finally cringed with fatigue gripping my legs during floorball. It was one tough and very, very enjoyable game. We played a full 2 hours match, occassionally shuffling players. all the usual collisions, high balls, tyco and nicely-crafted goals, shrieks of defeat and screams of victory (nt sure if that sounds rite haha). but haix...it's the last game...PE game, that we'll ever have in NJC (yeps..sobs..so sad)...a difference that seem so subtle yet so deep in meaning. i don't know...it may nt seem oblivious now, but it will soon enough.
there are positives though.i finally scored a hattrick. ashley could have doubled the no...but the post seemed to deny him, not the other way round. but the most fun was when me and louis were randomly teamed up with the gals...finally got to experience a new "dimension" of gameplay, and realise how good the gals really are (they're really gd!)
i felt overly fatigues only upon reaching home. mind was not in good state either, so i occupied myself with my long-lost hobby - drawing animes!! my drawing's not really that fantastic lar..but u can view them below =)
the latter was to be my new blogskin =D. but i decided that its didnt suit well to my taste. so oh well. what a waste. hope the hours of drawing can more or less improve my memory and hand. (now still numb from floorball)
after this, it's mugging time!!!
Mo0D : sian
yay, i've finally won the battle against the flu virus!! ( though i shouldnt be admitting now that it took me 2 weeks and 2 days to do so). it has somewhat deprived me of the newfound focus on mugging and bursts of energy that have fueled my enthusiasm in physically challenging stuff like PE and soccer, so hoping i'll do well for the post-sick recuperation. hehe. so much for the recovering part.
came across this new band that's seemingly slightly over-ambitious - and good.hmm of course it should be good, they've got tom delonge from Blink 182 and the drummer guy from the Offspring and some other guitarists from some other well-known-but-I-don't-know-one bands. nope, no more blink 182 half-naked clowning, or hilarious lyrics, nor the super energetic drums with familiar heavy electric guitar accompaniment. looks like the new band, Angels and Airwaves, is leaving the blink world to enter coldplay territory, but is stumbling along the way. the songs are nice, but half of the album don't have that 'punch'. or 'kick'. you know what i mean. anyways, I posted one of their songs here. so yep, enjoy! 'The Adventure' is one of those kind that may make your soul drift away a bit for a moment, before immersing yourself in some aura of good music.
Mo0D : rejuvenated
this week has been very tough for me. what was seemingly going to be just another extra hectic week with all those mugging for biomedical quiz turned horrendous when my temp skyrocketed to 39.8 degrees over the weekends. immediate doses of medication din seem to do much, so had to stay in bed the whole weekends, and had more break later all the way to thurs (and even now, I still haven't fully recover). I still tried my best to make time though to salvage whatever I could from those thick biomed books, and I'm very glad that NJ came in 3rd overall behind (default and normal) finalists RJ and HCI...yea!!!
Biomedical quiz preps was one of a heck kind of experience. absorbing the facts (x 10 of current bio syllabus) itself was an arduous task; applying those facts esp those for anatomy etc was more than daunting. makes me rethink whether I really want to go medicine or other bio-related fields of study. but of course, passion supercedes everything when it comes to fields like life sciences, followed by the will to learn...so I will just follow my heart and do my best from now on to achieve my aims.and stop playing.and stop slacking. and start mugging.hmmmm now that reminds me of the pile of homework debt i've accumulated over the week. ahhhhhh.
Mo0D : very jaded
I have to admit...this yr's World Cup is a blast...no wait..it should be "was",not "is". Arghhhh!! for any non-soccer-fans-turned-world-cup-spectators who think the world cup fever is over, that would mean you'll never understand some of us, the soccer fans. not that i want to degrade those under that category; it's already such a bombastic feat to get earthlings on the nerves watching teams battling for the coveted title. But...quite simply, the fever won't just fade away like that! Temperatures are still high in most fans, some scathing from the seering truth in France's defeat, me being one of them, others basking in the Azurri joy.
It may seem unoblivious that this yr's world cup is to be a major chapter in football's history, and will be talked about again and again in future "history of World Cup" programmes. Coupled with Italy's fourth title, none of this generation would forget the disgraceful yet pitiful end to Zinedine Yazid "Zizou" Zidane's otherwise super glittering career; a maestro, a genius, a immensely skillful player with trademark tricks on the pitch, and probably one of the best- or the best football player in the world. He showed the world that even the best do made mistakes; to err is human after all, and even a normally calm, cool-headed guy like him could loose his cool under provocation/spats etc and went to the extent of headbutting in brute retaliation. Despite all that, he remains as the best player in many people's eyes and deserves the golden boot award, presented to the outstanding performer of the competition, having almost single-handedly helped the Les Bleus crawl back towards the finals after returning from international retirement.
Soccer aside, played netball for PE just now and got totally whooped by the other team comprising half the class. veron, xinyi and gal gang plus the boys like aravin, qiyang and ashley tormenting our defense throughout. we did our best though to hold them off and score a few through eric and choonheng, while others like me, louis, fadhli and the other gals tried to catch them on the break, but it was not to be. very entertaining game though. even got snippets of the zidane-headbutt and c. ronaldo-rooney incidents. hehe.
tomorrow is the sevens. i hope my past is not coming back to haunt me again.
