Scorpio? Bite anyone?

scropio
You should be a Scorpio, your Passionate,
emotional, and determined, but you can be
obsessive, unforgiving, and a little arrogant

Past life

Chapter 1: The Sun

Your Sun is in Leo (Tropical zodiac).


Leo symbolizes the consciousness wherein there is strength, creativity and virility, as well as a certain headstrong or willful nature in how you apply yourself in relationship with others.

For instance, Paige, reading biographical or historical novels about European royalty, daydreaming about the courts of Kings and Queens of modern Europe or ancient times and other grandeurs of the past may bring to your conscious mind memories of previous incarnations when you were at the forefront of things. Hence to this very day there probably remains within you considerable inner strength along with a strong feeling for behind-the-scenes intrigues as well as a powerful sense of individualism. These qualities are probably connected with your past life experiences involved -- directly and indirectly -- with leaders of society and government.

You are also likely to have an above-average interest in the great artistic and spiritual accomplishments of the grand cathedrals and great churches of Britain and Europe, as well as the ancient temples of the Mediterranean world.

Sounds quite true wor....

Picture

Hi, juz want to share somethings with you.
I was attracted by this illustration done by my fave artist.
I fall in love with this kind of illustration style long time ago.
But i think it involves adobe photoshop which i dun think i can do it.
The feelings of sad and blur is being shown.
Make me feel connected with her somewat.
Maybe I am too focused on the negative side liao...
but anyway, I like this pic currently.
Maybe i will put this on my desktop
hahaha.....Hope u like it too.
:P

Song by me!!!

Pathetic Freedom Paige Tan

Everywhere you go people tell you
Dont do this Dont do that
Government says this is too inappropriate
censor this censor that
Till Everything is so smooth
That you wonder Why do you have to hire a pro

Father says dont carry thing with one hand
Should carry it with both hands
Mother says dont go this path
otherwise you will regret
Even Younger brother has an order for you
I need your things Give it to me

Living in this world is so pathetic
Restrictions and worries everywhere
When you take one step out
Eventually you will retreat two steps behind
Why cant we just move as freely as we should
Why do we need to worry so much
Just for a frightful reponse You are so selfish

Pathetic freedom pathetic live
everyone seems to control you directly or indirectly
You cant even say no
You dont even have a choice
Suffering in silence
Hoping that all this will end swiftly


Strictly for my own expression. If you want it, juz ask!
I dun support piracy especially when its on me!

Play ground downstairs

To further carry out the facts that government have too much $$$$ or for the greater benefit of children....the concrete playground is demolished to give way to plastic n metal type...


Used to rembr when i 1st moved here, i was very much excited by it....I begged my mum to bring me downstairs to play wif the slide, the swing and build castles in the sand. I used to do that when i was in my old house.


I din dare to try the pole sliding. I tot i could get hurt...I regret not trying sia,...I still rembr the joy of playing with them..that's my comp game b4 PC ever arrive...but as age passed..no 1 has the time to go there n swing or even walk around.....i pass by without stopping...


my cousins came by to visit us..n they were thrilled by it...They din even have one back in malaysia...I relive my joy of playing wif it...thru them....thru their eyes ignited by the joy of playing with it...we have fun wif sparklers....fun night it was....laughing n making merry...


I hated when some ignorant kids tried to set fire to it...lucky then get away wif warning from the police....should have give them a few whacks....wonder wat will they do when the see the brand new flammable playground? Hands itchy?


Now seeing the machines removing the slides, demolishing them...my hearts was weighed down by the memories that i have...so touching n fun....happy memories...now gonw wif the wind....cant help it....it seems so vulnerable then it break into pieces..at the hands of machinery...but it seems so solid to me when i was young....


I regret not taking photos of it.....now that it is gone...it is gone forever.....


Time pass, things change, people change, everything will eventually become dust...n fly with the wind.

Lou Yu Qing, my Fave author...

概談轉了風格的樓雨晴
  樓雨晴是個很特別的作家--我是這樣想的。
  從前,對她的印象大概是「一個文筆流暢,還不錯的作家。」直至《孟春情初開》的出版,我才對她改觀。看完《孟春》後,我很懷疑是自己弄錯了嗎?這不是樓雨晴的書吧。不是輕視樓雨晴,而是感覺完全不同,像是另一個人的作品一樣。
  她往日的書我看過,但沒有一字一句的讀,也沒有很深刻的感受。因此,我會從她轉風格(《孟春》後)講起。
  《孟春情初開》起,樓雨晴的風格大大轉變了,從前的大喜大悲,轟轟烈烈的愛恨情仇找不到,只有細膩的感情。這一刻我愛上了樓雨晴的作品。
  四季風情是很溫馨情深的一個系列。言孟春傻得可愛,對葉初晴唯命是從;言仲夏跟方歆平日打打鬧鬧,卻互相疼惜;言季秋的溫柔體貼,默默付出;搶著說自己壞的言立冬。
  其中穿插寫的《分手日記》,是樓雨晴的精品。相戀七年,沒有甜言蜜語,有的是行動證明。梁心影感到愛情淡而無味,寫下一封分手信。誰知,失去後才發現他已是生活中的一部份,沒有他,好像一天也活不過來。任牧禹認定了她,彼此間有一生的時間,照顧了她的生活,卻忘了呵護她的心靈。
  分手後,他和她各自品嘗酸甜苦辣,不同的體驗卻是相同的感受,沒有一刻不想著對方,自由得很空虛。舊情難卻,經過種種磨練,他們又再走在一起。
  樓雨晴完完全全寫出了那種無奈、茫然、心酸,追尋著遠不可及的夢境,而忘了隨手可捉的幸福,刻劃出主角的心情變化。
  再來就是以第一人身寫的《愛情的海洋》和《愛情的海洋續》,其中最難寫的是「我」的心情變化,不是以往的一筆帶過,而是一句一句的表達。海寧愛上了予默,寫情信、傷心離開、交男朋友來遺忘、後來的誤解,她的眼淚已經流得沒有再流了,明白一切想補救卻無補於事。予默被妹妹所欺,情信變成了普通的一篇文章、看著海寧交男朋友、一心一意的付出被踐踏、回台灣情緣難續,終於以一首「愛情的海洋」複合。
北海道的星星很漂亮,像米粒一样灑满整個天空,讓人有種错覺,只要一伸手就能掏了滿懷。你们一定無法想象,它美得多麼令人屏息贊歎。但是我總覺得它不够亮,因為我曾经看過一雙眼,比北海道的星星更美、更亮,更教我屏息悸動。然而,它卻不是恒星,而是一颗流星,劃过我的生命,留下永恒的美麗與惆悵。
  使人心碎,揪著心疼惜他們,在這個時候我恨極了樓雨晴。
  《姻緣線》寫了情人節、中秋節、聖誕節、愚人節的故事,當中情人節和中秋節兩本有些相似卻又不盡似。關丞穎為了前途放棄了楊欣儂,耿凡羿因為自尊與杜若嫦分開,得到了名利富貴,心中卻茫然若失。耿凡羿是幸運的,杜若嫦在他功成名就之時仍愛他如昔,而楊欣儂在關丞穎放手那一刻已放棄了他。
  中秋節的我看到的不是裴季耘和安絮雅的感情,而是裴家兩兄弟的親情。哥哥聲稱討厭這個弟弟,弟弟不介意哥哥的欺負,不是同父同母的兄弟,但仍讓人感動。愚人節是四本中較輕鬆的一本,鬆一口氣,不會被愁雲慘霧壓得看不過來,開首的自白更引人入勝。
  《七月七日晴》:
如果 我還能再多活一天我要勇敢告诉你--我爱你将我最後的 僅有的 二十四小时的美麗献给你等待来生 化作秋蝉 为你吟唱一個夏季的缠绵
  感人的兄妹戀,同父異母的兄妹,從愛上那一刻起已經注定了是悲劇。道德倫理容不下一對在血緣關係的兄妹相戀,無論他們會不會有後代,這段感情也不會被世人接受。天晴的死,成了最圓滿的結局,他們至死不渝的感情反會被欣賞。
  《叛逆》──关砚彤是一個女強人,一個外表堅強、不需要依賴人的女強人,她的寂寞孤獨有誰能撫慰?當她遇上一個她想依賴的人,她就再也不能放手。若她遇上的不是趙之航,是個騙子,那麼整個故事可能都不同了。猶幸樓雨晴沒有這樣的寫,她終於不再孤單了。
  《冤家宜解不宜结》我不會說,我實在對它沒有多大的感受。《近水楼台先得月》的言子萱對所有事都懷有疑心,她覺得自己配不上魏懷恩,忘了愛情沒有配不配。兩人相愛,她患得患失,痛哭如雨,仍然捨不得放手,魏懷恩卻捨不得她苦,分手想她冷靜下來。言子萱不得其意,以為他另有所愛,不斷的交男朋友,拿他們跟魏懷恩比較,卻沒有一個比懷恩好,她愛的從來只有懷恩一個。懷恩心底唯一的身影,未曾變過,只有她言子萱一個。很多情侶都像他們一樣相愛,一樣為了誤會分手,但沒有他們的情根深種,分手了也就放下了,最終形同陌路。他們能夠再走在一起,是因為他們愛得最深。
  樓雨晴的書都寫的很真實,可能有一大半跟我們身邊的朋友的故事一樣,只是比我們的朋友愛得更深,緣份更深而已。寫到這裡,不想再寫下去了……

Finally changed my blogskin

I guess I have to change coz it reminds me of the Tsunami situations....yeah....terrible sia...

I know I haven been updating do bear wif me....let me list wat I did for last month ok?

Jan

1. Jan 10th, after I bidded all my modules, I fell sick, aching all over, moving like an old lady n lying in bed for 3days....after that, I become Ali coz I carry a huge Tongkat(umbrella) to school (get the joke? Tongkat Ali???)

2. Went for a Haircut....n sort of temporary straighten my hair...my friends find it amazing as they exclaim, "ur hair so long!"...Maybe I should go n do rebonding huh???....

3.My friends who seen me exclaimed again," U lost weight again!! wat happen??" Guess that's the best part about being sick...coz u eat either marcoroni or porridge for 3 meals sia....

4.Went for a shopping trip wif Vallerie n Clarina....Wah Seh.....they realli superb man...we go out from11am n come home around 11pm sia..my legs so tired..n I am amzed by how much they buy sia....

5. Went out shopping agian wif Vallerie...this time ...me bought a lot of things n watch the "Shall We Dance?" good movie by Richard Gere n J. Lo n Susan Saradon...adapted from Japanese Movie...but lost some original touch of the intimacy n the intricacy of the reflection of society..but on its own, as a reflection to American white-collar lives, Hollywood did a good remake sia....n I end up spending more than Wat I have done so far...horrible....

6. I have watched 1 1/2 b/w movies by hollywood, one is Greta Garbos's " Queen Christina" produced my MGM (now I am super sensitive to production companies). Greta is a good actress, but the Spanish Count n other male counterparts not very appealing wor....then the other half is "Roman Holidays" by Audrey Hepburn (virgin movie) and Gregory Peck...realli good portryal by Audrey n Gregory...now Gregory seems more more nicer, n handsome than the Spanish Count...

U may wonder y I chose to watch b/w movie coz...the lib reserved the newest films like the insider, ferenheit 9/11 to film classes....sian sia....

7. Miz Kexin very much.....hope to c her soon...hehehe...

8. Mit a lot of friends via the irc....but me very blur lor...often forget their names..hope they dun mind....n some of them juz have the intention of....u know lah....wat a world sia...

That's all for a monthly update...will update the next time as soon as I can....
