House Visit
Havent been blogging for a while already. shall start from last sat. was supposed to go for eugene's bday but then PSC had some SJT which they wanted their scholars to try out so i went for that instead. The exercise was quite interested but im not sure how much of it was confidential so i shant divulge anything about it. after that, went with
kenneth (who was also there) to funan cos i needed to go to the Times there to spend $40 worth of vouchers. i originally intended to spend them on iris johansen's books, since i recently got hooked on her books and somehow they are quite hot in the library too. however, i remembered that i wanted philip pullman's "His Dark Materials" too, and the trilogy set cost 39-ish so i just settled for that. along the way,
kenneth told me about his india exercise and the various places he had been to during R and R. the tour sounded like a real eye-opener, but i believe that tour was very hard earned.
anw, yesterday we organised a visit to
dingzhi's house since noone has visited him yet ever since he broke his arm. we waited at Lot One for
yongsheng to come down from camp and i suggested going to the arcade. we ended up playing initial D. haha i always went for the easy way out and chose auto, and kept flooring the accelerator throughout the race LOL. imagine doing that during my TP haha :P it was so fun that our house visit almost became an arcade session.
after yongsheng arrived, we headed down to
dingzhi's house. when we reached there, we quickly switched the TV to channel 5 cos EnBloc was already showing and it was the 2nd last episode, ie 2nd last chance to see andrea forseka haha. then we all chatted with
dingzhi for a while. his condition seems quite bad and the doctors arent exactly that responsible in ensuring a timely examination of his condition. hopefully he will be able to recover ASAP (:

Mass song updates!
Havent blogged in a long while. i shall update my blog with some of the nice songs that im recently addicted to.
the first song is a song in pin guan's new album, and it is written by ah xin! qi + qu by him. haha. im really impressed by his recent compositions for several artistes. yang cong for aska, wo hen hao for liu ruo yin and na xie nv hai jiao wo de shi for pin guan. they really suit the singers, and show a slightly different side of them. not to forget, they are all very K-ge type of songs, with very nice lyrics.
speaking of the lyrics, na xie nv hai jiao wo de shi is very similar to some of ah xin's other compositions. firstly the countdown from 10 to 1 reminds me of the counting from 1 to 9 in si ben dao yue qiu. and the repetitive "xiang nian de xiang nian de xiang nian de" in this song reminds me of "yi ceng yi ceng yi ceng" in aska's yang cong. ok. mebbe im thinking too much haha. this is my favourite song now... after yang cong (which is still my all-time top fave)
那些女孩教我的事 - 品冠
要不是你让想念猖狂打破天窗
我不会发现枕头上的荒凉
以为你就是故乡
却变成我的流浪
谁的傍晚是谁的天亮
十九八七六十六亿人同时狂欢
五四三二一个人倒数孤单
回忆的拥挤广场
假装你还在身旁
就像你最爱依赖我的肩膀
第一行诗的狂妄
第一首歌的难忘
第一次吻你的唇 你的倔强
第一颗流星灿烂
第一个天真愿望
第一个诺言 美丽的荒唐
你教我爱的善良
你教我恨的野蛮
你教我忘记该忘伤心太伤
那些你教我的事
让思念更苦更长
只想问 想念的 想念的 想念的你 怎么样
爱情是信仰或只能是旅途风光
那女孩带我漫游一次天堂
你教我怎么爱上
却没教怎么遗忘
让我的阳光都变成了泪光
第一行诗的狂妄
第一首歌的难忘
第一次吻你的唇 你的倔强
第一颗流星灿烂
第一个天真愿望
第一个诺言 美丽的荒唐
你教我爱的善良
你教我恨的野蛮
你教我忘记该忘伤心太伤
那些你教我的事
让思念更苦更长
只想问 想念的 想念的 想念的你 怎么样
第一行诗的狂妄
第一首歌的难忘
第一次吻你的唇 你的倔强
第一颗流星灿烂
第一个天真愿望
第一个诺言 美丽的荒唐
你教我爱的善良
你教我恨的野蛮
你教我忘记该忘伤心太伤
那些你教我的事
让思念更苦更长
只想问 想念的 想念的 想念的你 怎么样
那些你教我的事
让思念更苦更长
只想问 想念的 想念的 想念的你 怎么样next up is kenji's 3rd hit. the tune of this song is alot more catchy than his previous 2 hits, wei ni xie shi (which sounds a bit kiddish now) and qian qian qian shou.
越爱越难过 - 吴克群
说说你为什么为什么要走
说你为何要分手
别拖求你别软弱求你说出口
分手的理由
但你却拖拖拖拖到什么时候
如果要走却又为何停留
请你别拖拖拖大声的说出口
请你要痛就痛给我个快活
如果说你要走我不会留我不去管以后
然后我们说清楚一句话就够
如果说你要走我不会留我不去管以后
多么痛多么的难过别越爱越难过
说说你为什么为什么要走
说你为何要分手
别拖求你别软弱求你说出口
分手的理由
但你还拖拖拖拖到什么时候
如果要走却又为何停留
请你别拖拖拖大声的说出口
请你要痛就痛给我个快活
如果说你要走我不会留我不去管以后
然后我们说清楚一句话就够
如果说你要走我不会留我不去管以后
多么痛多么的难过别越爱越难过
然后连话都不说继续沉默
连朋友都没得作为了什么
然后跟别人说你其实还是爱我
就算了吧坏人我来作
如果说你要走我不会留我不去管以后
然后我们说清楚一句话就够
如果说你要走我不会留我不去管以后
多么痛多么的难过别越爱越难过
last song i'd like to recommend is zhang jing xuan's new song, which is the mandarin version of his canto song 酷爱. i love the tune and the wonderful finish to this song. (:
吻得太逼真 - 张敬轩
无论怎么叫我都觉得虚伪
陪伴你那么久你说是受罪
从前到现在当我是谁
你这花心蝴蝶
昨夜陪你醉
唱到我心碎
你竟说我和你不配
完全忘记往日为何
能与我彻夜缠绵
和你 吻吻吻吻吻
吻你吻得太逼真
让我把 虚情假意
当作 最真心 的亲吻
怪自己 来不及区分
你对我 是酷爱是敷衍
我想 吻吻吻吻吻
我该怎么脱身
你却说花花世界
不必当真
多么伤人
让我爱上多情的红唇
拿什么心肠面对我的生冷
能不能想一想你让我多伤
你的爱就像完美毒药
对手的场地依然漂亮
不敢想曾与你渡过
多少真实的晚上
一转眼热恋后身受重伤
和你 吻吻吻吻吻
吻你吻得太逼真
让我把 虚情假意
当作 最真心 的亲吻
怪自己 来不及区分
你对我 是酷爱是敷衍
我想 吻吻吻吻吻
我该怎么脱身
你却说花花世界
不必当真
多么伤人
让我爱上多情的红唇
深渊万丈你把我的爱
用尽后丢弃荒野埋葬
你犯的罪装没人知道
用什么证明你的亲吻真的残忍
和你 吻吻吻吻吻
吻你吻得太逼真
让我把 虚情假意
当作 最真心 的亲吻
怪自己 来不及区分
你对我 是酷爱是敷衍
我想 吻吻吻吻吻
我该怎么脱身
你却说花花世界
不必当真
多么伤人

Just in Singapore
just watched the last episode of yi fang ban ting yi shui gang and i felt that it was the best mediacorp ending in a long long while. really, thumbs up for this show. i initially thought the plot was very lame and didn't really want to watch it. however, after watching a few episodes, i found the story funny and constantly pokes fun at real life scenarios in singapore. it is like a much better packaged jack neo show.
on to the last episode. every minute of the last episode was exciting. even up till the last 10 minutes of the show, the vat was still changing hands and the fate of the vat was still very much unknown. and every single family had their own mini conclusions throughout the show. there wasn't a single scene in the last episode that was draggy. right up till the final scene, even though that ending was expected, but they made the best of the ending and it didn't seem cheesy at all. it was also heartening to see that the cute weijie survived (: this is definitely THE BEST MEDIACORP SHOW ENDING for a long while and i regretted not watching the whole show due to my initial bias towards it.
*sigh* now i wont get to see much of fiona alr :P
on my aos day, i heard joanna's i love you on 933. haha im damn mesmerized by her voice! (: totally! :P it is a really nice version of david tao's ai hen jian dan. thk im recently very crazy over joanna's songs. in addition, my clerk also showed me a very sad mv which you all might want to take a look if u r free. he warned me that i might cry after watching but unfortunately i didnt hahas :P

Xiao Tai Yang
ive been complaining for 3 months about the lack of new songs from tian wang, tian hou and tian tuans. really, unlike previous years, few top end artistes released their albums in the first quarter of this yr. up till now, we have yet to hear news from many of these top end artistes with regards to the their 2008 album. anyway, quarter one this yr was more like the season for new singers to release their albums. lots of new singers chose to release their debut albums during this period, as if it were pre-planned.
thankfully, my complaints are finally answered. on monday, there was the du jia shou bo of mayday's new song, xiao tai yang. when i first heard of this song title a week ago, i was expecting it to be like a fast rock song, but it turned out to be a slow wang-ci like song. was a little disappointed, but then the tune was quite nice so at least it sounded awesome overall. (:
SHE has also released their version of zhang xue you's hong bian quan qiu. in less than 2 weeks since zhang xue you's version was released, SHE had already fan chang-ed their song. was quite surprised that SHE actually sang this song for beijing 08, since they are usually very careful not to tread on political issues. the SHE version of the song is less majestic, but it sounds a bit more playful, gentle and is generally cuter, so i like the SHE version more on the whole.
