All that is gold does not glitter,
Not all those who wander are lost;
The old that is strong does not wither,
Deep roots are not reached by the frost.

From the ashes a fire shall be woken.
A light from the shadow shall spring;
Renewed shall be blade that was broken,
The crownless again shall be king.

~J.R.R. Tolkien

Providence



I only like providence in this form.
It's hauntingly beautiful.

Providence, rendered by the Warsaw Philharmonic Orchestra.
There are many good music which
you may not discover them in your whole life.
But there's no other way apart from coincidence.

趴趴熊般的假期


看了这张图后,突然很想冲杯咖啡。

 




趴趴人生。

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

This song, "The Invisible Wall" by the Gazette, in my mind all this while, its chorus goes like this:
"Sono menu, sono menu, sono menu, uuyeea~~"
That doesn't make sense.

Then eventually, my curiosity leads me to search for the lyric.
......

"Sorrow made you, sorrow made you...."

Ahahahaha. But it's a nice song.
Also, I was quite convinced that 80% of the lyric are in Jap. I was so wrong =\
Anyway, whatever.

Little Fugue in G minor

Let's have a little bit of Bach.



How cute is this.

因为现在有这个心情

近来真的变废人了。脑海里想着要出去办事逛街购物,结果还是呆在家。
坏习惯卷土重来,我的白天又被睡掉了,结果不能弹琴。

觉得自己做事总是慢吞吞地,慢功出细货嘛比较像是借口,我总是少了那股冲劲。
说这是因为我的画一直没完成。

最近看 Soul Eater,好好好笑。故事不啰里啰唆,又有独具一格的幽默。

说要在这悠闲长假买些特定的书来看。
结果 ,上次去了书展,根本不记得本来的目的。目不暇给,不记得也怪不得。
哦,倒是买了“尼采文集”。看了几十页,结论是我是个肤浅的人。

上火车前买了一本书,John Sandford 的 Broken Prey, 还停留在64页。
现在都不记得故事了。

老人与海,不知停在第几页。
记得姐姐说对那个华文翻译没信心,哈哈哈。(喂人家是渔夫吃沙丁鱼配饭是没罪的)

也看了 Luna Sea 的 One Night Dejavu ♥

错!

题目有点惊人?
不,只是突然想到为什么 “错” 是 金字旁。
上网查查,它的本义似乎是 “用金涂饰, 镶嵌”。

为啥会演变成一个带贬义的字?


最近尝试教自己日文,在想会日文上网搜查日本音乐也会较方便吧,oho 。 麻烦的只是日文汉字而已。
又不是假期,我竟在做这等事。

对文字有兴趣,上次也尝试学韩文, 现在都要忘光了,但 banana 怎么写却忘不了。
忙死的时候都有买 banana,这水果太方便了。有一天我只啃两条 bananas,唉,现在终于有时间好好煮一餐。

青玉案

此 “案” 读 “碗”,难以想象为什么。作者的名字都好怪,但又挺吉利的。



东风夜放花千树,更吹落,星如雨。宝马雕车香满路。凤箫声动,玉壶光转,一夜鱼龙舞。

蛾儿雪柳黄金缕,笑语盈盈暗香去。众里寻他千百度,蓦然回首,那人却在灯火阑珊处。

- 辛弃疾


这个 “他” 是个 “她”。

The outgrowth on your head

My assignment requires me to find information on horns.
Then I saw theeeese bizarre pictures on Wiki (Neh, 'cause I saw it for the first time)


The spiralll-horn goat!
How cool is that?

Hm it might be quite popular
among the opposite gender
;D









The the the three-horn sheep!
I vote for you to become 
the leader of the flock.


No sheepish sheep it is, eh?



People are getting more relaxing towards the end of semester, but why not us?
The assignments flock towards the end of semester.
Bbbaaaaaad (Genie's tone) thing.






Update: Just found this.
Who don't love Genie? He's just insanely funny.
You bbaaaaaad boy.

oh Lord......of the rings

All that is gold does not glitter,
Not all those who wander are lost;
The old that is strong does not wither,
Deep roots are not reached by the frost. 


From the ashes a fire shall be woken.
A light from the shadow shall spring;
Renewed shall be blade that was broken,
The crownless again shall be king.

Stumble!

I stumbled into Wikiquote ne.
So I clicked on the big names hoping to see big words.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"We are what we think.
All that we are arises with our thoughts.
With our thoughts we make the world."


"Do not believe in anything simply because you have heard it. Do not believe in anything simply because it is spoken and rumored by many. Do not believe in anything simply because it is found written in your religious books. Do not believe in anything merely on the authority of your teachers and elders. Do not believe in traditions because they have been handed down for many generations. But after observation and analysis, when you find that anything agrees with reason and is conducive to the good and benefit of one and all, then accept it and live up to it. "

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~


;)
Guess who said that.

Miaohahaha

What's with the laugh?
I have been reading a manga about a cat's everyday life, and he laughs that way.
See~ X)














Ahahahaha it makes me laugh. And I have a reason to laugh now.
The mangaka is quite a genius as she is able to draw the human side of cats with cats' demeanour. It's so damn amusing. Cats are good, you know.
(This manga is 《茶茶的日常生活》)

What a day to remember

2009 2009 ne.

Hmmmm。

This is really weird.
There is this profile picture of my friend which shows a silhouette of a Chinese temple.
Then there is this caption: Rantau Panjang Chinese mosque, Kelantan.

I was like wth...?! I have never heard of this mosque although I am a Kelantanese. Hm maybe it's a new one. So I was thinking, is it a mosque for the Chinese or a Chinese temple which serves as a mosque? The concept is kinda confusing. =S

So google I did, aah it is a mosque which adopts a Chinese architectural style.

See, there's nothing weird about a mosque with Chinese architecture, as I believe in China this kind of architecture does exist. The weird thing is, it is IN Kelantan.

Eh? In Kelantan? I can't help but smell some, err, 不单纯的动机。 Ehem.

Well, if it can stand for the next couple of decades, it might make its way into books, for its existence is nothing to be taken for granted.

Hopefully we will see more interesting things happening in this boring state, eh.
(For example, a decision to build a cinema, a theme park etc, woohooo~~ *wake up, wake up*)

棋子在脑海中互相残杀


看一部漫画, 提到 Chess。 脑中尝试想起棋子的布阵,好在,还记得。
西洋棋, 酷! 尤其是闪闪发亮的棋子 *-*
家里有一幅,觉得还蛮精致,但 chess board 看似非常脆弱,毕竟只是厚纸一张,用多了自然老化得快。

没事用 WordWeb 找 KING 的定义, 竟是 "The weakest but the most important piece"。哇哈!一针见血,笑死我。它可以走那么一次一步,就算 Pawn 杀到来也来不及逃得远远。(好,是我策略不到家)连 Pawn 都可以横跨两步啦,但谁让它那么重要呢。

记得每次都拼死保护 Queen,因它最神; 或拼命把 Pawn 格格爬上8th Rank。然后, “PAWN power, Make Up!” 变身。

下西洋棋印象中并没什么特别风光的纪录。看着骏马被人家的庸兵 (人家的是庸兵,我的是 Riders of Rohan!! ) 揣一脚还是会心痛的,Queen 被俘虏了会欲哭无泪。有时会剩 King 孤零零一棋,当然啦没了女王你什么都不是 噗)

小时常与哥哥下,有一段时间搬棋去学校与好友下 (哗想不到我也有“琴棋书画”的校园生活)。
想想有三四年没碰了。以前还会在 Yahoo Games 下。现在下我的兵力一定很快被吞噬殆尽。

才知道原来这个局面是 draw?? 什么嘛~
每次碰到这个局面时的我还是会觉得我输啦。
其实不懂西洋棋的正统规则,因为都是看着哥哥学着玩的。记得中学时有参加 Chess Club, 废的。我校大多数学会是名副其实地名存实亡。

“Checkmate can be accomplished with a bishop and a knight, or one rook, or one queen. If both sides only have their king and one bishop (or knight), the game is a draw.”
呵呵呵,谁叫你 Bishop 只可以斜走?


在棋局上意兴阑珊地说 CHECK · mate · 应该会很过瘾吧?

So sorry

So sorry your world is tumbling down
I'll watch you through these nights
Rest your head and go to sleep

'cause my child

this is not our farewell

Our Farewell - Within Temptation


在企图挽留生命但它还是烟消云散时,它存在过的证明会变得非常有杀伤力。
生离死别,真的就是生离死别。

没有天堂的重遇,没有地狱的重逢。


无论如何,请保重。

嘿嘿嘿

嘿什么?没事,这叫心来潮。

好难得认真做功课(不是心血来潮),结果败给了到处溜达的乐趣。死性不改。
我其实是在做功课的。嘿嘿。在找关于 Dubrovnik 的资料,除了上网还有哪里可以找到一堆图画嘛?(我,理直气壮!)
那真是一个美丽的地方。

还有还有,发现那边好像 很多猫。结果我对它的好感增加百倍。我将来要去的地方,又多了一个。
 

猫,真的可以招财。
猫儿~~~来~~~啦!

唉,刚才看了 The Pirate Bay's founders 被判的消息,我还是乖点写个什么 disclaimer 吧。ALL pictures are taken from the net, thus, not mine. (废)


名副其实的 kuro neko 啦~

我正在~喵~望远方。

Cats Series 1: Brown Cat and the Ancientness of Dubrovnik (烂)

I maaaau some of the you-know-what.



来来,一人一边。


全都是Croatian kitties =D
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

好像是去年,跟朋友看了一部 匪夷所思/莫名其妙 的电影。 记得看到它的简介时,兴趣是1%.那为啥还去看?
除了免费,还有什么理由?当时剩下的免费电影就只有它。

看完后,朋友无语。其实,全场好像也没有声音。那部电影叫 "Tony Takitani"。トニー滝谷。

当时觉得不错,虽然根本不懂那部电影到底真正讲啥。我是乐观看电影的。从来只有一部电影,让我觉得是报纸写的那种所谓的废片。它叫无极.不好意思写出来,但我不懂无极什么意思,不能暗示。本要用 Google language tool 翻成英文敷衍下,但,Google 的翻译更让我无言。

哦,刚刚其实想说,无意发现了这部 Tony Takitani 原来改编自 村上春樹 Murakami Haruki 的原著。哗!久闻大名,但他的作品一本也没看过。眼镜有点跌了一下,原来我看不懂大师级的作品。

Opening Words *Clap clap*

Have a blog elsewhere, but couldn't customize much.

Let me play around and I will see what can I do here.
