Never assume.

I'm assuming that you're assuming that I can play the violin.

I'm assuming that you're assuming I can play the violin.

Well… I can make scratchy screechy noises that sound like nails on a blackboard to the tune of 1000 Words from FFX-2.

Following up from the previous blog entry, the ‘expiry date’ one.

My brother told me that he was planning to watch Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen with me instead of his girlfriend before I backed out. I bailed out because I assumed that despite being invited in the first place, I was gonna be third wheeling along. It turns out that she doesn’t like watching movies of that genre…

It was partially my fault. My bro didn’t tell me that I wasn’t intruding or anything when I backed out. I told him that I couldn’t be bothered rather than sulking and saying ‘*points to self* third wheeler, HELLO?’. Openly admitting that kinda hurts my pride, dunno why.

The moral of the story is… Just don’t assume… especially if it matters. AND IT FRIGGIN’ MATTERED!! My bro ended up watching it twice for the price of one, at IMAX! He stayed to watch all the credits and then by the end of it, people were walking in for the next session. So he decided to stay for another round. LUCKY……………..

Nothing is as it seems. But assuming can be comforting in some ways. Assumptions, to me, were temporary conclusions I relied on when I don’t know the real answer or reason. And sometimes I prefer my assumptions over the truth anyway. So yeah, WIN… maybe not.

Quoting my friend, “when you ASSUME, you make an ASS of U and ME”.

Expiry Dates aren’t just for food

Encouragement from dearest Swordie ~

Encouragement from dearest Swordie ~

Yesterday was a very eventful day. We had a BBQ at Pipemakers which was quite awesome. The day can be summarised at best with 200 photos from me and another 200 more from the other girls’ cameras.

Today was an uneventful day. I was meant to go watch Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen with my brother and his girlfriend at IMAX. Apparently it was really good and I looked forward to it. But then I decided to bail out last minute. I didn’t want to be a third wheeler lawl =__=”…

I Love the Rain.

I Love the Rain by Claude Kelly. I like an English song for once.

LOVING MY BABY PUMA XL IT, WHITE/RED.

LOVING MY BABY PUMA XL IT, WHITE/RED.

Oh, please don’t discriminate against those born with the idiot face… i.e me.

Last night I had the urge to go shopping at Woolies [please get with the program if you cannot comprehend]. I spent about $70 on a variety of things, mostly food and such.

The next bus home came in 30 minutes so instead of waiting for it, I decided to walk home, in the rain with a shit umbrella that kept flipping out and four bags of whatever I bought from Woolies. I forgot about my jarred pinky so by the time I got home it kinda died. Anyway I started snacking and playing Kingdom Hearts II. Lizzie watched me play for most parts, fangirling over Sora and Donald. And MAN, I WANNA MARRY RIKU’S HOT VOICE. I MELTED INSIDE WHEN HE SAID “take care of her” TO SORA. AHHHH~

[Lyrics] Nishino Kana – kimi no koe wo feat. VERBAL (m-flo)

kimi no koe wo kikasete hoshii yo
negau tabi kokoro furueru no
kawaranai kono omoi ga
mune no naka de atatakai

It’s my way, your way, no way…
It’s ONE WAY LOVE
It’s my way, your way, no way…
It’s ONE WAY LOVE

sono hitomi nani wo utsusu no?
dare yori mo kimi wo shiritai
dakedo mimi wo fusagu uwasa banashi ni
mata mune ga itaku naru no

wanna tell you
konna ni chikaku ni iru no ni
furerarenai sono nukumori
kowaresou de ienai yo
kono kimochi subete

kimi no koe wo kikasete hoshii yo
negau tabi kokoro furueru no
kawaranai kono omoi ga
mune no naka de atatakai yo

baby baby ima demo atatakakute
wanna tell you

nanigenai meeru hitotsu mo
kudaranai naga denwa mo
kimi to tsunagatteru tada sore dake de
mitasareteta hazu no ni

wanna tell you
mujaki na sono waraigoe mo
bukiyou na sono yasashisa mo
watashi dake ni misete hoshii yo
kimi no subete

It’s my way, your way, no way…
It’s ONE WAY LOVE
It’s my way, your way, no way…
It’s ONE WAY LOVE

[insert rap - lyrics can be found here]

kimi no koe wo kikasete hoshii yo
negau tabi kokoro furueru no
kawaranai kono omoi ga
mune no naka de atatakai yo

iro no nai hibi mo kimi no egao de
kagayaki ni kawaru Always wanna be your side
itsu no hi mo donna toki demo
zutto kimi wo aishiteru

kimi no koe wo kikasete hoshii yo
negau tabi kokoro furueru no
kawaranai kono omoi ga
mune no naka de atatakai yo

motto koe wo kikasete hoshii yo
negau tabi kokoro furueru no
kawaranai kono omoi ga

Geek Brother

My older sister was at work and I was at home. Received a package from my brother in Japan, who’s coming back tomorrow. The package which was addressed to my sisters claimed that its contents are a ‘model steam engine kit spare parts’ and a ‘hobby toy model robot kit, Gundam 1/114 scale’, but everything ain’t what it seems.

OH and by the looks of things, it seems like he found a soccer shop in Japan! What a legend! Here I was betting on whether or not he’d be able to get my Kashima Antlers shirt or whatever he decided to get but I guess he’s no noob ^^”…

[Lyrics + rough translation] Inoue Joe – maboroshi

Original lyrics found here.

I watched the MV for this song and I was all “what the heck’s going on?” over it, so I decided to make a rough translation to the song. Hopefully by the end of it, I’ll understand the MV better ^^.

Again, please comment if there are any mistakes, etc. Thanks!

[Lyrics + rough translation] Inoue Joe – hitomi -HE TOLD ME-

Original lyrics taken from here.

Romaji by me. And Google. AND Monash University’s Online Japanese Dictionary. MONASH IS GREAT!!

I love his album to bits. This was the first song I played from the whole album and I LOVE LOVE LOVED it the moment it started playing. Catch it [listen to the song] if you can! I might be posting more lyrics from the album if I come across more songs I must sing along to…

The title’s like a cool cross-cultural pun!

Please leave a comment if there are any corrections that should be made ^^. I’ll get to it ASAIC…

I do… not…

…remember when my brother is coming back from Japan.

ARGH! THAT ALSO MEANS I’M NOT EVEN SURE WHEN MY BABY EEEPC IS COMING BACK!!! IRA-IRA-IRA-IRA~!!!

I’m positive he comes back on the 30th but what if it’s not? Even my mum and my older sister aren’t sure LAWL.

Well I guess we’ll wait and see. I wonder if he’s found anything from my ’shopping list’… no wait I mean I wonder if he’s doing well over there at the moment. Teehee~ shows how much I care.

TIME TO GO BACK TO WATCHING JUNJOU ROMANTICA 2!!!

Oh before I go, just had to add…

Latest catch: DF Kasai Kenta of Kashima Antlers. HE'S CUTE <3

Latest catch: DF Kasai Kenta of Kashima Antlers. I love his sleepy-face (*w*)b

Kashima Antlers’ jersey is so damn hot. Red and black horizontal stripes! Even their older red and grey jerseys look awesome! Good job, Nike~ your designs won’t come right back laughing their ass off at you.

Kasai Kenta is a Puma fan.

“Junjou baby love” ;D
