christine glass - my love will get you home

finished watching the abalone series better known as Heart of Greed during my study break. heh.

and because they kept replaying this one song in the show, it's now stuck in my head.

very simple lyrics but i think the simplicity of the song makes it so nice :) downloaded it

If you wander off too far, my love will get you home.
If you follow the wrong star, my love will get you home.
If you ever find yourself, lost and all alone,
get back on your feet and think of me, my love will get you home,
boy, my love will get you home.

If the bright lights blind your eyes, my love will get you home.
If your troubles break your stride, my love will get you home.
If you ever find yourself, lost and all alone,
get back on your feet and think of me, my love will get you home,
boy, my love will get you home.

If you ever feel ashamed, my love will get you home.
When there's only you to blame, my love will get you home.
If you ever find yourself, lost and all alone,
get back on your feet and think of me, my love will get you home,
boy, my love will get you home.

If you ever find yourself, lost and all alone,
get back on your feet and think of me, my love will get you home,
boy, my love will get you home,
boy, my love will get you home.

here are two videos of the song. enough to get it stuck in anyone's head hahaha

my blog is so chinese-syyy lately *squints*

my courses in mandarin

Back in primary or secondary school during exam periods, granny would always ask me this question when she sees me studying..

theng yat hao mat yeh? [what papers are you having tmr?]

back in those times there was no problem translating the names of those subjects to cantonese and explain it to her...

the translation part became more n more difficult since i started foundation.

few days back, i was asked a similar question

bai yat hao mat yeh? [what paper are you having on Monday?]

then i stopped for a while....

pondered...

pondered....

and i can't seem to find a proper way to describe to her the courses I'm enrolled in currently.

so i end up saying

Aiyahh!! psychology la.

granny : -__-

since I'm feeling lame now, will study the chinese names of my courses so that i can give her satisfying answers in future hahaha

well, i have the lighter purple text is my translation of the name while the ones in darker purple are direct translations that are VERY ACCURATE thank you :)

Advanced Research Methodology
(direct translation in canto)

Biopsychology
(direct translation in mandarin)

Conflict Resolution
(direct translation in mandarin)

Human Services
(direct translation in mandarin)

Quantitative Methods
(direct translation in mandarin)

just hate being in a state where you try to make things better but nothing is helping u, nothing.

dot dot dot

dre-ee-ee-ee--eeam

I've even hand written the menu.

There's at least 5 courses. *evil laugh*

I am so distracted!

Matsuri video AFC

haha ok that was kinda bodo.

okok sorry.

I went to genting. You know that place on top of that hill where people say is not cold anymore?

First World Hotel

Yeah this place.

And because of listening too much to rumours, i got conned to wear a dress to genting. Bodo!

Thats cos i was going for Kitaro!!
so thought wanna act more matured and all that bullshit la u know lol.

me have me tix

me and my aunty looking brother haha

so why did i say i was conned?

just look at how freaking misty the place was!!! It was giler cold!

This is the entrance to the Arena of Stars.

Look at this pic, can u guess what is behind those thick ass mist?

it was this! remember? my fav ride in the theme park?

I was freeezing like mad thank god mummy almighty brought windbreakers for each of us if not I just might die there. might.

the wind was strong and it kept "lifting" my dress also. brother called me a marilyn monroe wannabe. -_-

Thank god i wasn't stupid enough to actually strut around in my heels because the place was crowded! (i changed to my trusty with crocodile sandals before getting off the car) not crocs! but crocodile brand!

i'm suddenly reminded of these kids from this milk powder ad. You know the one where one kid teaches another kid how to imitate the sounds of animals? so freaking cute la.

kid 1: what sound does a crocodile make?
kid 2: i dunnoooooooo *innocent face*
kid 3: RArrrr!!

ahh!!! i wanna pinch those kids in that ad.

ANYWAY.

Here is the stage before the event. I was kinda shocked to see the backdrop of the stage so empty.

The place was slowly filled up, everywhere was filled EXCEPT for some rows of the VIP seats. Too expensive maybe?

there was an icecream man...well selling ice cream in the arena and because of my lack of self control =( i bought an ice cream on impulse. Impulsive sial. i grabbed the ice cream before asking for the price and then finding out that i didn't bring my wallet so i had to borrow some moolah from the brother.

look what did he say about me!!!!!

Oh yeah, forgot to mention about my sis. Before the show started, there was a few man walking around the place selling ice-creams, Cornetto. She wanted to have an ice-cream even though she was feeling cold... She doesn't have any money with her and coax me to lend her. Until she hold on to the ice-cream cone, I asked how much? The man said "5 ringgit" OMG! Thanks to her lackadaisical decision, I just wasted my RM5 for an ice-cream with the price of 2 ice-creams... I thought it would be RM3.00 somewhere there but RM5 is too much...bla bla bla... At least she paid me back my money which make me losing nothing except for stupidity for lending her money.

I returned him his money weih! bleh!

yeah i was freezing but ice cream was...irresistible!

Kitaro started the show. *claps*

He is such an awesome artist. You can see and feel his enthusiasm for music, peace and love through the way he plays and the music he produces.

Top notch, no doubt.

and...he prolly plays every instrument available on earth.

He plays these thingies on the floor that i couldn't get a proper picture of.

He plays the flute.

He plays the keyboard.

He blows this other thingy i have no idea what is

He plays the keyboard again.

He plays the guitar...

He plays the harmonica.

He plays those big ass drums at the back

and he makes awesome

"HUUMMMPHH!"

"FOOOOHHHHH!"

sound effects for his songs. Remember in Matsuri? Thats actually his own voice.

chunted la.

After the encore session, he came back holding the mic near him and everyone thought he was gonna sing hahahha........but he didn't.

anyway he gave a short speech on how thankful he was to be here. Couldn't really make out what he was saying exactly but i could catch a few words like.

"we would like to coming to Kuala Lumpur in future"

"Our nature for our next generation....keep situation good for them..."

"music to the heaven...the heart...the soul...for peace..."

something like that.

very down to earth man judging from the way he speaks.

I feel so cultured being at the show. It's nice to watch him play because he plays with a smile on his face..his gestures are pretty cute haha.

After the event, since the place was packed and so many people were crowding the exit...we came down to the VIP section to get a closer peek at the instruments on stage.

then the guitarist came on stage and started throwing out his picks! bah! i couldn't get one for baybee :(

a closer look at this pic seems to suggest that....LOL!!!!

its the angle and all that la ok? the man was throwing guitar picks to the crowd.

Besides Kitaro the man himself, his guitarist was really awesome throughout the night.

so was his violinist.

and those 2 on the keyboard.

and that man on the drums.

Now im hooked on listening to Kitaro.

Matsuri was DEFINITELY the best song during the night.

ahh...miss the night.

and i'm gonna end this post ever so awkwardly. as usual. kontradikcion style ma.

peace out.

omg i haven't started studying!
