D-Day Coming.....

不用如果，现在就已经有了。。。

LUCKY

Do you hear me? I'm talking to you
Across the water across the deep blue ocean
Under the open sky, oh my, baby I'm trying

Boy I hear you in my dreams
I feel your whisper across the sea
I keep you with me in my heart
You make it easier when life gets hard

I'm lucky I'm in love with my best friend
Lucky to have been where I have been
Lucky to be coming home again
Ooh ooh ooh

They don't know how long it takes
Waiting for a love like this
Every time we say goodbye
I wish we had one more kiss
I'll wait for you I promise you, I will

I'm lucky I'm in love with my best friend
Lucky to have been where I have been
[ From: http://www.elyrics.net/read/j/jason-mraz-lyrics/lucky-lyrics.html]
Lucky to be coming home again

Lucky we're in love in every way
Lucky to have stayed where we have stayed
Lucky to be coming home someday

And so I'm sailing through the sea
To an island where we'll meet
You'll hear the music fill the air
I'll put a flower in your hair

Though the breezes through trees
Move so pretty you're all I see
As the world keeps spinning 'round
You hold me right here, right now

I'm lucky I'm in love with my best friend
Lucky to have been where I have been
Lucky to be coming home again

I'm lucky we're in love in every way
Lucky to have stayed where we have stayed
Lucky to be coming home someday

Ooh ooh ooh
Ooh ooh ooh, ooh

====================================

"Lucky" simply describes my feelings in recent days as we count down to our nuptials!! I can't help but think of how lucky I am to have found this soulmate, companion, low-maintenance, simple-lifestyled, down-to-earth woman whom had agreed to spend the rest of her life with me.

I cannot imagine how she is able to tolerate me.. but well, she's managed to and is prepared to do so until the end of our time. There are many things that I can imagine us doing/experiencing together. Perhaps I should make a list of all these things lest I missed out any.

Believe it or not, listening to this track and typing this post, my eyes started getting moist....

PS : I'm 99.9% sure I'm gonna have this song at our wedding.

English Translation of 黄昏's Lyrics

Was trying to self-translate the lyrics of 黄昏 from Mandarin to English but gave up due to my regretfully poor grasp of the language.... the former language. Luckily, I managed to find something online which pretty much fits the bill....So here it is... the English translated lyrics of 黄昏, Dusk.....

Dusk

过    完    整    个    夏    天 (Mandarin)

guò    wán    zhěng    gè    xià   tiān (hanyu pinyin)

After the whole summer,

忧    伤    并    没    有    好    一    些

yōu    shāng    bìng    méi    yǒu    hǎo    yī    xiē

my sadness still did not improve.

开    车    行    驶    在    公    路    无    际    无    边

kāi    chē    xíng    shǐ    zài    gōng    lù    wú    jì    wú    biān

Driving my car on the vast, boundless roads,

有    离    开    自    己    的    感    觉

yǒu    lí    kāi    zì    jǐ    de    gǎn    jué

I feel that I’m getting out of touch with myself.

唱    不    完    一    首    歌

chàng    bù    wán    yī    shǒu    gē

The song that I could not finish singing,

疲    倦    还    剩    下    黑    眼    圈

pí    juàn    huán    shèng    xià    hēi    yǎn    quān

Left me so tired that there are rings around my eyes.

感    情    的    世    界    伤    害    在    所    难    免

gǎn    qíng    de    shì    jiè    shāng    hài    zài    suǒ    nán    miǎn

It is inevitable to get hurt in the realm of love,

黄    昏    再    美    终    要    黑    夜

huáng    hūn    zài    měi    zhōng    yào    hēi    yè

No matter how beautiful the dusk is, the dark night must follow.

依    然    记    得    从    你    口    中    说    出    再    现    坚    决    如    铁

yī    rán    jì    de    cóng    nǐ    kǒu    zhōng    shuō    chū    zài    xiàn    jiān    jué    rú    tiě

I recall that you said, “Goodbye” with a tone of steel,

昏    暗    中    有    种    烈    日    灼    身    的    错    觉

hūn    àn    zhōng    yǒu    zhòng    liè    rì    zhuó    shēn    de    cuò    jué

I had a delusion of being burnt by the sun in the darkening dusk.

黄    昏    的    地    平    线

huáng    hūn    de    dì    píng    xiàn

The horizon at dusk,

划    出    一    句    离    别

huá    chū    yī    jù    lí    bié 

Drew out your line of, “Farewell.”

爱    情    进    入    永    夜

ài    qíng    jìn    rù    yǒng    yè 

Love plunges into eternal night.

依    然    记    得    从    你    眼    中    滑    落    的    泪    伤    心    欲    绝

yī    rán    jì    de    cóng    nǐ    yǎn    zhōng    huá    luò    de    lèi    shāng    xīn    yù    jué

I still remember the tears falling from your desolated eyes.

混    乱    中    有    种    热    泪    烧    伤    的    错    觉

hùn    luàn    zhōng    yǒu    zhòng    rè    lèi    shāo    shāng    de    cuò    jué

In the confusion, there is an illusion of being burnt by the hot tears.

黄    昏    的    地    平    线

huáng    hūn    de    dì    píng    xiàn

The horizon at dusk,

割    断    幸    福    喜    悦

gē    duàn    xìng    fú    xǐ    yuè

Severed happiness and joy.

相    爱    已    经    幻    灭

xiāng    ài    yǐ    jīng    huàn    miè

Love has already been destroyed.

Numa Numa Misinterpreted Lyrics

In-Camp-Training

Yeah! 2wks away from the office, 2wks no need to see that IDIOT's face. YIPPIE!!!

Today's the first day of my 2wks ICT and as expected, we've gotten a night's off. So, here I am at home typing away and counting down to 930pm when I'd have to zoom back to camp. The main body will be arriving on Wednesday while ppls like me go in a day or 2 earlier to prepare for their 'checking-in'.

As I'm not a combat fit soldier by medical grounds, I do not need to chiong sua (aka go outfield). As such, my ICTs are spent in the battalion office doing 'admin' stuffs such as clearing the waste-paper bins, printing forms & other documents, calling up the Appointment Holders asking this & that, etc... So you can see that it's pretty much a waste of my time doing ICT when I could have been in the office clearing my work! To be honest, each time I'm away from the office for a few days, I fear for my mailbox.... Seemed like I've been poisoned by my occupation :S

Roy sent me a YouTube video the other day. It's pretty lame but funny, enjoy....

Cold As Ice

Cold As Ice (by Starsplash) is part of Track 4 in Body Combat Release 38. The very moment the tune of this song came on during the class, I fell in love with the melody and I resolved to find it.... which I did. Looking through the lyrics, it seemed to mirror what I used to experience....

---------------------------
Foreigner (Original Artiste) - Cold As Ice



You're as cold as ice
You're willing to sacrifice our love

You never take advice
Someday you'll pay the price, I know

I've seen it before, it happens all the time
(Oooh-oooh) You're closing the door, you leave the world behind
You're digging for gold, yet throwing away
(Aaah-aaah) A fortune in feelings, but someday you'll pay

You're as cold as ice
You're willing to sacrifice our love

You want paradise
But someday you'll pay the price, I know

I've seen it before, (oooh-oooh) it happens all the time
(Oooh-oooh) You're closing the door, you leave the world behind
You're digging for gold, (aaah-aaah) yet throwing away
(Aaah-aaah) A fortune in feelings, but someday you'll pay

Cold as ice, you know that you are
Cold, cold, as, as, ice, as cold as ice to me
Cold, cold, as, as, ice

Ooh ooh ooh, cold as, cold as
I, i, ice, (you're as cold as ice) yes
(Cold as ice) You're as cold as ice, cold as ice, I know
(Cold as ice) You're as cold as ice, yes I know
(Cold as ice) You're as cold as ice, you're as cold as ice, cold as ice, I know
(Cold as ice) You're as cold as ice, oh yes I know
(Cold as ice) You're as cold as ice, you're as cold as ice, cold as ice, I know
(Cold as ice) You're as cold as ice, oh yes I know
(Cold as ice) You're as cold as ice, you're as cold as ice, you're as cold as ice, I know

Aother Feeling of Nostalgia....

Thanks to a YouTube Video posted by MF, I'm all nostalgic again....

周杰伦-说好的幸福呢
词:方文山曲:周杰伦

你的绘画凌乱著
在这个时刻
我想起喷泉旁的白鸽
甜蜜散落了

情绪莫名的拉扯
我还爱你呢
而你断断续续唱著歌
假装没事了

时间过了走了
爱情面临选择
你冷了倦了我哭了
离开时的不快乐
你用卡片手写著
有些爱只给到这真的痛了

怎么了你累了说好的幸福呢
我懂了不说了爱淡了梦远了
开心与不开心一一细数著你在不舍
那些爱过的感觉都太深刻
我都还记得

你不等了说好的幸福呢
我错了泪干了放手了后悔了
只是回忆的音乐盒还旋转著
要怎么停呢

怎么了你累了
说好的幸福呢
我懂了不说了
爱淡了梦远了
我都还记得

Those of you who know me well enough to know what I've been thru recently would be able to understand why I posted this song....

Biggest Physics Experiment on Earth

"An international team of over 2,000 scientists, led by Professor Tejinder Virdee from Imperial College London's Department of Physics is stepping up preparations for the world's largest ever physics experiment, starting next year at CERN near Geneva, Switzerland."




Those people at CERN seemed to be very free and can afford to make rap in their spare time. Wondering if any rap's going to emerge outta XXX anytime soon :p

If you had read Angels & Demons by Dan Brown, you couldn't have missed the backdrop on which he had based the novel upon. I completed the novel about 3yrs back and I actually did googled CERN back then. I've never expected that the "Anti-Matter" thingy that Dan Brown had in his novel is actually a reality in the making! You gotta read his novels if you have the time and energy to do so. Don't need to read all, just "Da Vinci Code" & "Angels & Demons" will do. Actually, its recommended that you read "Angels & Demons" before you proceed to "Da Vinci Code" as they are somehow vaguely related.

Before you bash me with things such as the above 2 novels being anti-Christ, I would like to clarify that as long as you read it with the mentality of reading a storybook, I'm sure your faith, no matter how strong or weak, will not be shakened.

Coming back to the topic proper, CERN is experimenting with re-creating the Big-Bang. Should anything go wrong along the way, the facility will most likely blow up, with the potential fallout (nuclear?) affecting hundreds of thousands of innocent lives around the vicinity. However, if the experiment goes well, the potential benefits to the human race could be in-measurable....

World running out of Iron ore, no problem... CERN can produce some!

YouTube Spoofs.....

An 'irritating' friend of mine recently forwarded me this YouTube video of some spoof taken off a Hitler documentary. They edited the original storyboard with their own and came up with the following :



If you visit the actual location of the video @ YouTube, you will be able to find numerous other spoofs using the very same video BUT with different storyboards. Some are pretty lame but damn funny!
