C'est la vie....

Song of the day: Fish Leong - C'est la vie.

Yes I think it's cheating how she only sings one phrase in French but still, I like this song... I've changed Music<3 - CMB's translation a bit...

I've been too lazy to translate anything lately... I think my grasp of the Chinese language is taking a sharp nose dive down *sigh* why is there not enough time in the world?! It's so hard translating chinese into english, it loses it's beauty somehow... I can't seem to find words in english that does chinese words justice.... hmmmm...

Cest la Vie - Fish Leong 梁静茹

C´est la vie
作词：黄婷　 作曲：易桀齐/伍冠谚
Lyrics: Huang Ting Composer: Yi Jie Qi/ Wu Guan Yan

Ne laisse pas le temps te décevoir
Don´t let the time disappoint you
ll ne peut être conquis
It can´t be conquered
Dans la tristesse dans la douleur
In the sadness in the pain
Aujourd'hui, demain
Today, tomorrow
Au fil du temps Le temps C'est La Vie
As time goes by the time It´s life


Maybe I´ll meet you again, like the lovely way lovers meet again
Look at the moustachioed smile on your face, as candid and frank as always
C'est La Vie C'est La Vie C'est La Vie


Walking the strangeness of a town, I have arrived and dawn's still not aware of the sunrise
all the way the sky´s smiling full of stars has disappeared in the sunrise
C'est La Vie C'est La Vie C'est La Vie

The Seine flows tears from the heart
every shape flown through your smiles (when it goes it won´t return)
I will, in your memories, see myself
see an end... love in the aftermath will be more cherished


We should go in direction of a new journey , goodbye
(we) agreed we won´t stay for each other
Watching in silence through the car´s window.... I won´t cry
C'est La Vie... C'est La Vie... C'est La Vie


The Seine flows tears from the heart
flown through life's ever flowing scenery
wish us each to have a fine future
a fine longing of love; in the sorrow it is more clear...

You are not alone.

I couldn't sleep last night, it must be the new surroundings... This morning my body woke me up at stupid-o'clock again and I forced it to sleep more. Gone are the days when I can sleep until midday and still feel tired... this extra bit of sleep that I imposed upon myself has made me feel more lethargic, life is cruel. I'm taking it slow, I don't think I should though... there's a lot of work still left to be and oh so little time to complete it in =(

This is the song of the day... I think it says a lot about what's going on... even though I'm sleeping and resting, my thoughts never rest.



Another day has gone
I'm still all alone
How could this be
You're not here with me
You never said goodbye
Someone tell me why
Did you have to go
And leave my world so cold

Everyday I sit and ask myself
How did love slip away
Something whispers in my ear and says
That you are not alone
For I am here with you
Though you're far away
I am here to stay

But you are not alone
For I am here with you
Though we're far apart
You're always in my heart
But you are not alone

'Lone, 'lone
Why, 'lone

Just the other night
I thought I heard you cry
Asking me to come
And hold you in my arms
I can hear your prayers
Your burdens I will bear
But first I need your hand
Then forever can begin

Everyday I sit and ask myself
How did love slip away
Something whispers in my ear and says
That you are not alone
For I am here with you
Though you're far away
I am here to stay

For you are not alone
For I am here with you
Though we're far apart
You're always in my heart
For you are not alone

Whisper three words and I'll come runnin'
And girl you know that I'll be there
I'll be there

You are not alone
For I am here with you
Though you're far away
I am here to stay
For you are not alone
For I am here with you
Though we're far apart
You're always in my heart

For you are not alone
For I am here with you
Though you're far away
I am here to stay

For you are not alone
For I am here with you
Though we're far apart
You're always in my heart

For you are not alone...

Through the monsoon....

.... just me and you. *sigh* I think I've reached breaking point now.

Tokio Hotel - Durch den Monsun

I'm staring at a broken door
There's nothing left here anymore
My room is cold, it's making me insane

I've been waitin' here so long
Another moment seems to have come
I see the dark clouds comin' up again

Running through the monsoon
Beyond the world 'til the end of time
Where the rain won't hurt
Fighting the storm into the blue

And when I lose myself I think of you
Together we'll be running somewhere new
Through the monsoon just me and you

A half moon fading from my sight
I see your vision in it's light
But now it's gone and left me so alone

I'll know I have to find you now
Can hear you name and don't know how
Why can't we make this darkness feel like home?

Running through the monsoon
Beyond the world 'til the end of time
Where the rain won't hurt
Fighting the storm into the blue

And when I lose myself I think of you
Together we'll be running somewhere new
And nothing can hold me back from you
Through the monsoon, hey, hey

I'm fighting all this power coming in my way
Let it take me straight to you
I've been running night and day

I'll be with you soon just me and you
We'll be there soon, so soon

Running through the monsoon
Beyond the world 'til the end of time
Where the rain won't hurt
Fighting the storm into the blue

And when I lose myself I think of you
Together we'll be running somewhere new
And nothing can hold me back from you
Through the monsoon

Through the monsoon
Just me and you
Through the monsoon
Just me and you

The worst of the British.....

I think if there was a degree in procrastination then I'd be top of the class. *sigh* This is ridiculous. I haven't revised all week and I'm just at my wit's end about how/where to start all this revision. I ended up just half-heartedly sifting through the papers and hoping that inspiration would come to me and I would snap out of my lazy mood. I feel like just screaming "THIS IS YOUR FUTURE, DO NOT THROW IT AWAY LIKE THIS!" but nothing seems to be working. My mind is seriously preoccupied and I'm not sure what with.... crap as always I would suspect. Pah. I've learnt endless 'new' words which I think if I had studied English properly I would have known. My knowledge of vocabulary is extremely poor but this hasn't really been of a disadvantage to me until I actually found out that I would FAIL 2/3 of my exam if I didn't improve. I think in the long run I will try to improve gradually but in the case of my up and coming exam, it is too little too late. On a side note, why the fuck do we have to take an AUSTRALIAN based knowledge exam?!?! I think the aussies are out to get us.... they just want to prove that us British are stupid and ignorant. Or both.

Song of the day is by JJ Lin. I was obsessed with this song waaaaaaaaaay back in the days when guys and relationships did not take up even a slight proportion of my wandering thoughts which kind of begs the question why on earth was I addicted to this song so much?! anyway, here it is, many of you might've heard it before. What kinda throws me is the fact that there are 3 languages in this song....

Crazier

I don't know what to say today. I don't know what to think. I don't know how to behave, how to live, how to function, and just.... what is wrong with me?




I'd never gone with the wind
Just let it flow
let it take me where it wants to go
till you open the door theres so much more
i never seen it before
i was trying to fly
but i couldn't find wings
but you came along and you changed everything

you lift my feet off the ground you spin me around
you make me crazier crazier
feels like im falling
and i'm lost in your eyes
you make me crazier crazier crazier

i watched from a distance as you made life your own
every sky was your own kind of blue
and i wanted to know how that would feel
and you made it so real
you showed me something that i couldn't see
you opened my eyes and you made me believe

you lift my feet off the ground you spin me around
you make me crazier crazier
feels like i'm falling
and i'm lost in your eyes
you make me crazier crazier crazier

Baby you showed me what living is for
i don't want to hide anymore

you lift my feet off the ground you spin me around
you make me crazier crazier
feels like im falling
and i'm lost in your eyes
you make me crazier crazier crazier
crazier crazier

Coldplay - Fix you

I'm rather cold, shivering in my room at the moment and this song came to my mind. It's beautiful and so bitterly sad at the same time.



When you try your best, but you don't succeed
When you get what you want, but not what you need
When you feel so tired, but you can't sleep
Stuck in reverse

And the tears come streaming down your face
When you lose something you can't replace
When you love someone but it goes to waste
Could it be worse?

Lights will guide you home,
And ignite your bones,
And I will try to fix you,

High up above or down below
When you're too in love to let it go
But if you never try you'll never know
Just what you're worth

Lights will guide you home
And ignite your bones
And I will try to fix you

Tears stream down your face
When you lose something you cannot replace
Tears stream down your face
And I

Tears stream down your face
I promise you I will learn from my mistakes
Tears stream down your face
And I

Lights will guide you home
And ignite your bones
And I will try to fix you
