Songs 15 & 16 [Chinese] : ..的情书

Not really a fan of Chen Wei Lian 陈伟联but his new song《分手的情书》certainly caught my attention. I somehow like the music and the lyrics and the way it is sung.
眼前无路心中有数 何必继续漫步
你该拥有更轻易的幸福 谈恋爱不是追逐难度
爱如苗圃命如蜡烛 沿路烧到光秃
是我自私放不下同甘共苦 也念不出分手的情书
Check it out.

However, I still like this song by Jiang Mei Qi 江美琪 - 那年的情書
手上青春还剩多少 思念还有多少煎熬
无意重读那年的情书 时光悠悠青春渐老
回不去的那段相知相许美好 都在发黄的信纸上闪耀
那时青春失去记号 莫怪读了心还会跳
你是否也还记得那一段美好 也许写给你的信早扔掉
这样才好曾少你的 你已在别处都得到
Sometimes, in life, not everyone has the luck to 'make it big' but perseverence may pay off someday. This is definitely one of my most loved songs ...Check it out.

M

M-Merits
M-Mean
M-Man
I feel that I have been laxed in pursuing what I really/truly desire. This is no good.
Again, is it destiny or I have gave up pursuing cos I cannot afford the time/effort as age is catching up?
Allow me to reflect what my FS Master wrote in her blog -
"Who we are are what our bazi says about us.... and unless we have merits accumulated then we will change and our luck can become better .... destiny can be changed but is not easy."
Maybe, I have not been a saint and being mean, I can only be an ordinary man.

D

D - Destined (to be in a job?)
D - Dressed (for Success) ...one of my favourite song by Roxette
D - Derailed
I know in life, our fate is somewhat destined. However, we can 'enhance' but not 'change' it totally. As such, some of my dreams are unlikely to come true. One day, I hope to be able to dress for success in what I do ...and not be derailed. I need a calm mind to think through.

I can sing?

I know I can't really sing well, or rather nobody actually praised me for my singing before thou I was once a champion in an organisation karaoke competition when I did a duet with a lady (not my wife ...ooops...haha).
Anyway, my mum attributed my inclination to singing cos when she was expecting me, she watched GETAI!! haha.....Infact, I recalled being fascinated by the singers at the GETAI performance when I was a young boy. Just yesterday, I was lured to watch a small-scale GETAI near my house (imagine they allow it IN a housing estate!)....for about 10 mins ...and memories came back.
If my mum had perused my interest when I was young ...probably, my life would not have been what I am today ...haha...doing desk-bound jobs.
I know I am not destined to be in the entertainment line, this life but somehow, there is still a little desire in me to want to fulfill some small dreams of mine ....

Must WATCH

Those who are glued to the Taiwan Idol Drama like me, MUST WATCH this "Black & White", starring Vic Zhou.
http://sugoideas.com/black-white-episode-01/
I believe there was much fanfare about this drama but I didn't bother cos I am not really a fan of Vic but the night before, after I recovered from my bout of flu...I 'tuned' to Episode 1 and glued to it .... I only realised in Episode 4 that most of the lead/supporting actors/actresses, aside from Vic and Kingone were 'shortlisted and handpicked' from a 'star search' equivalent contest...they are really talented if these are their first attempts (now, I really admit that I have no X factor...sigh)
Now, I know why our local dramas have a long way to catch up ....

Hit

Yes, finally, my turn to be hit by the virus bug. Recently, there was a diarrhea bug going around...and it hit me yesterday. So bad was it that I turned into 'jelly' after some rounds in the toilet (morning), stomach pain/cramp at work (cos there was an important exercise in school), and being 'merlion' (when i reached home in the afternoon). Almost dehydrated. I am still weak and could hardly stand for long today ...must sit or lie down. Hope the virus ends with me.

B

B-Bitter
B-Believe
B-Best

Sometimes, I do feel bitter about things ... why do some lucky others always get the tastier fruits. Did they work harder or smarter than us? or just that they are luckier or born with silver spoons. I was told that it has to be fate. Not all of us believe in it...or rather ... we should believe in ourselves that one day, we could probably be able to make it - best in our own league.

Emo & Senti

Heard this song on the radio last night ...felt emo after that ...surfed the net and realised that this singer, Van has quite a fair bit of nice sentimental songs ...sometimes, we are so caught up in the 'hip and favourite and trendy' ...and forget the others who may not seem as dazzling ... thatz why one needs to make oneself more visible and 'be seen'...I was advised to do so at work. Things done but unheard may be as good as not done...that's the reality of life. We can't be forever nightgales...

R&P

There is a saying ...the rich get richer ...and the poor gets poorer. I guess that's life.
This celebrity is certainly rich to afford the luxury items ...sometimes, I wonder how he build up his empire of wealth ...*faintz with envy*
http://blog.omy.sg/davidgan
As for the poor, I am sure we have all seen them...some can't bring food to the table for themselves and their kids...and they are struggling to make ends meet ...
We know "one earn more, one spend more" ..."one earn less, one spend less (live within means)"
Some of us are destined to get rich someday but not all....and that's the poverty trap.
As the song goes ...I wanna be free...I wanna be RICH...haha
