Op.13 No.6

Below is the lyrics of an anime's opening theme. I find it very meaningful. The original song in japanese is very soothing. A slow, calm tempo. This anime I watched it last year. To guys, it seems like a girl-kind-of show. But it teaches me how to handle human relations. I believe every show, you must see it at various different angles. They are always telling us something. Not just only the visual effects, actions, dialogues etc..........Must look out for its morals. Seldom there's someone who shares the same thoughts as me when watching a show.....

I was so happy, you were laughing
With a smile that melts everything away
Spring is still far away, inside the cold earth,
Waiting for the time to sprout
For instance, even if today is painful
And yesterday's wounds remain
I want to believe that I can free my heart and go on
Let's stay together itsumo
I cannot be reborn
But I can change as I go on, so
Let's stay together always
Smile only at me and touch me with those fingers
This simple desire is everlasting
I want things to be simple
Let's finally get across this sea of mournful sorrow
For instance, even if today is painful
Someday it will become a warm memory
If you leave everything up to your heart
Let's stay together itsumo
I understand the meaning our living here
It is to know the joy of having been born
Let's stay together always
For instance, even if today is painful
Someday it will become a warm memory
If you leave everything up to your heart
Let's stay together itsumo
I understand the meaning our living here
It is to know the joy of having been born
Let's stay together always...................

Another day has passed. Was on msn with my cousin and he told me he is buying "Long Vacation" box set. A sudden adrenalin burst in me and I was ransacking my drawer for the piano scores. I found the piece "Close To You". That was years ago after watching the drama, I transcripted myself note by note. Luckily it's still well-kept. Though mixed amongst other scores. The music sure bring memories. Sometimes I really wonder am I an emotive, nostalgic person. Looking up into the sky, images of the past is re-enacting in my mind. I think this is very unhealthy. I should be thinking of the future. But then, my friends thought I'm a frivolous person. Maybe is the way I present myself, the way I speak when I'm with them. For I feel that since out chilling with friends, might as well let my hair down. Crack jokes, talk nonsense, laughing out etc......Maybe my jokes too lame and I feel they have an impression that I ain't a serious person. What's weird is, some actually take it seriously when I joke for fun. And when I'm with the opposite sex, at times, I find myself play possum. I'm very unpredictable. I have too many principles. Yet, I find it hard to balance them with my feelings and life. I admit to defeats, grew tired, yet, I believe if you never try, you will never know. Perhaps that's how a musician life should be ? I'm not sure. I feel like going into seclusion, exile. But sometimes I'm afraid of boredom. I will just wait, on long vacation. Till the right one appears and exemplary services will be rendered. Like a wise adviser to the king.................
Funny ? Perhaps................

Initially my friend had helped me revamp my blog page. But I think it lack of originality as Cloud Strife from FF VII Advent Children is pictured inside. Though I'm into FF VII, I prefer my blog page is something I created. One of my friend requested me to write down my trip to Japan. It's almost 3 weeks since returned. Hopefully my memories are still fresh.

On 23rd October 2005, I finally get to go abroad after my regimental service. The last trip I went was to Genting Highlands back in early 2003. The take off was 2330 hrs. Almost 6 hours of flight, the plane touched down at Narita Airport at 0620 hrs. Japan's time is an hour ahead of us. After passing the customs, the tour guide lead everyone to the coach. The first destination went was Hakone. About 4 hours of travelling time, we reached the destination. Our drop off point has a very big lake, with hills of green trees set as the background. One or two maple trees were spotted with its leaves turning red. As it's Autumn, the atmosphere was very cooling. Around 15 degrees celsius. Embraced by warm sunlight, the scene is beautiful. After lunch, we proceed to Odaiba's Peace Park. A shrine dedicated to Lord Buddha is the center of attraction. Visiting a live volcano was next. Steams are emitted from ground. The whole area smells sulphuric. But when up at part of its peak, it seems you are in high up in the sky looking down at god's creation. Nature. Before dusk, we went to Mount Fuji. The coach brought us up to Mount Fuji's 5th station. Its peak is magnificent. Little areas of it is covered with snow as Winter is approaching. When sunset falls, the whole place turn into an orange scene. Cool wind blowing and orange clouds are so clear in front of my view. A lovely romantic view. Enchanting. Makes me feel I'm in heavens. Anyone will melt in a scenery like this. Too beautiful to be described with words. It's best to see it with your very very own eyes.

Will stop here today. Actually I have something else to write. But then, I felt should write my trip events down before it faded off my mind. Will continue the rest in my next entry...........
