.K i a T. welcome to my eternal melancholy

Ah... my blog has come alive again after revamping it. Lately nothing seems to get me down, at least not too much.. probably my motivation comes from anime music. I don't know how those Japanese write their songs, but they seem full of emotion, meaning, purpose, life. It's not that Chinese and English songs don't have that flavour, I guess it's a different thing altogether. Maybe it's the language or something. I think I'm gonna pick up Japanese. Haha... there'll be lots of time next year after ORD.

Speaking of ORD brings my mind to studies. NTU just offered a double degree programme earlier this year. Aerospace engineering and Economics. Both are subjects which I have interest in, but not absolutely love. Then again, there's nothing in this world that I've come across to be exceptionally interesting to study, at least not yet. It's a 5 year programme with the curriculum packed to the max. I know it's gonna be tough, and people tell me it's gonna be a mug-your-ass-off-and-have-no-life course. Uni life is supposed to be fun right? But books can always mix around with fun, and that would be perfect.

Actually I have no idea about the workload and stuff. If I join some CCA, my time will probably be all exhausted in uni. That's the best. Because if you don't live life fast, furious, packed, it's gonna be boring. Never be contented with what you have. Our Asian counterparts learn fast, and when they get to the market they're deadly. If you don't level yourself up, to your maximum potential, someday you're gonna keep running the rat race. I want to break that. I will never be want be stuck in the rat race forever. In life, just whack.

Whack smart.

Nobody knows who I really am
I never felt this empty before
And if I ever need someone to come along
Who’s gonna comfort me and keep me strong

We are all rowing the boat of fate
The waves keep on comin’ and we can’t escape
But if we ever get lost on our way
The waves would guide you through another day

遠くで息をしてる //Breathing in the distance

透明になったみたい //As if I've become transparent

暗闇に思えたけど //It seemed to be the dark

目隠しされてただけ //But I was merely blindfolded

祈りをささげて //I offer my prayers

新しい日を待つ //And wait for a new day

鮮やかに　光る海 //To the end of the sea

その果てまで //That shines vividly

Nobody knows who I really am
Maybe they just don’t give a damn
But if I ever need someone to come along
I know you would follow me and keep me strong

人の心はうつりゆく //People's hearts move

抜け出したくなる //And want to slip out

つきはまた新しい周期で //The moon in its new cycle

船を連れてく //Brings along boats again

And every time I see your face,
The oceans heave up to my heart
You make me wanna strain at the oars,
And soon I can see the shore

Oh, I can see the shore
When will I see the shore?

I want you to know who I really am
I never thought I’d feel this way towards you
And if you ever need someone to come along
I will follow you and keep you strong

旅はまた続いてく //The journey is still continuing

穏やかな日も //On the calm days, too

つきはまた新しい周期で //The moon in its new cycle

船を照らし出す //Begins to shine on boats again

祈りをささげて //I offer my prayers

新しい日を待つ //And wait for a new day

鮮やかに　光る海　 //To the end of the sea

その果てまで //That shines vividly

And every time I see your face,
The oceans heave up to my heart
You make me wanna strain at the oars,
And soon I can see the shore

運命の舟を漕ぎ //Rowing the boat of destiny

波は次から次へと //The waves assault us

私たちを襲うけど //One after the next
