Good feeling is good

Image
It's been a while I last felt this way. The feeling of being here, the feeling of really exist, not surreal. It's weird, after so many months being right here in this land of Hong Kong, I never really felt I'm actually here. Vague, I know. Do not ask why, cause, I don't know. I went to a sharing session at Culture Club today, a few presenters shared a song that they are "all over" and their presentation should be as long as the duration of the song too. It was good, brings back some good old memories of my favorite kind of songs too, the good old days, and I do still listen to those songs even now, I guess the time in me never changed. I like the environment, really, although I'm never really belong in the crowd, but somehow I felt, I belong more to those kind of crowd. Cozy place, everyone drinking, chatting. Sometimes I just felt, I have put myself into a time and space I don't belong to but somehow after a while now, I felt, even I'm to...

So much to read, read so much~!

You are on your back in the dark

That is kinda the line that kept appearing in the book I just finished reading. This semester I admit, I read lesser, reason being I only go down to the main campus like 2 days a week and one of the day I don't even have time to have lunch break, class all day. So last week I actually pick up a lot of books and today I pick up a few books too when I went down to return my dvds and I happen to already finish reading one of the books. It's "Company" by Samuel Beckett, it's the longest prose he written apparently. Quite interesting one, as he kinda says to someone who wanted to make this into a play that we when we are born, we started to die. It only took me like an hour to read this book, but some parts touched me, as I go on, my mind...I think back in time....now I feel....oddd....calm but sad. Well, is ok, good one, try to read this book if you have a chance, short but interesting. Apparently this book is in CityU library since August 1984! It was published in 1...

Rainy day~

It's been a while since I last blogged. It's now week 6 i think in a new semester for me in CityU and everything just got on track quite ok, last week was a horror week =P And that of today is Thursday which suppose to be my off day but I normally go for a sit in class. Well anyhow, is a relax day for me, to get some things done in the morning, and get my mind some off time too. Well, haven't been going out much for month to be exact now, had a muscle torn at my left leg joint near the groin area and made me quite unable to walk much for weeks. Got stuck out in the cold when I try to go somewhere, when I walked out, the temperature outside literally frozen my injured muscle that I'll be in so much pain and all I can do is just stay at the same spot until the pain goes away and I'll be able to walk again, and that normally takes an hour or so. LOL, never felt walking was so much of an effort before. Learnt from this now. It's getting better, just still slight pai...

North Point : Street Markets

Image
I wanted to go out on my own for some adventures for a while already, but I just couldn't get my butt off this chair. So finally this morning I woke up and I tell myself I will go out! Where to? Somehow, I love to go to street markets at Hong Kong, especially those with a lot of things to look at (or buy) and cheap. Actually there's one near my area, which located at Pei Ho, Sham Shui Po (SSP), but recently I have been to SSP for so many times, for meals and dessert, so I decided to go elsewhere. I looked up on net for some other street markets available and I found Chung Yeung Street Market which is located at North Point. So off I go, MTR my way to North Point. I took the long way to escape the crowd. I decided to go to North point by Yau Tong interchange, when I reach north point, as I was walking, someone tapped on my shoulders... when I looked up, was my lecturer, Nadim! Hong Kong's really small huh! Actually the last time I went to North Point, I had egglets, at King...

Dopamine-responsive dystonia (DRD) might be mistaken as Cerebral Palsy, parents take note!

Image
I saw this video just now, I was quite shocked. But this could change many people's life, CP patients' I myself is with CP, life could be hard at times. But do remember, there's always hope =D Visit msnbc.com for breaking news , world news , and news about the economy For those who don't know what cerebral palsy is, basic explanation would be it's a some sort of neurological disorder. When you have it, it's sort of permanent, can be help to improve by some therapy. To know more about DRD read here .

Time and space...

It's been 2 months since I arrived in Hong Kong. I would say I have already settled down. I felt I have already kind of blend in to the pace of life her or at least are quite comfortable with it. Studies are alright, but I wished I could be stronger and ignore those unnecessary stress and focus I should do. I'm trying to. Someone told me I looked like I have slowly regain my energy, regain a life. I do really hope and feel so too. I don't know how to explain how surreal it is and how grateful I am just to be in this place. Although I don't get the fresh air I used to get back in Malaysia, but I am gaining more energy. Slowly seeing more things around here too. People, places, and all sort of things. Actually 2 months is short, but why do I felt super long... Perhaps I have done a lot compare to what how I was in my routine-ish days...? I guess, and I hope so. The feel of lost in Time and Space~

Songs songs songsss =P

I have been learning electone for 3 years+++ I guess I have very much improved in the sense of playing especially my pedalling skills. Now my left leg is even more lively then my right leg, it was the other way round years ago~ Thanks to pedal training, haha! Let see, since last year, I have managed to play a few harder songs, although they're not perfectly played but I'm still happy I manage to play them! Years ago I would say those songs are just unplayable for me =P Some songs list : 1. I've been working on the railroad (orchestra version) - Grade 6 2. Back To Future - Grade 6 3. Alvamar Overture - Grade 6 3. Voyager - Grade 5 *prouds* etc. Now I am thinking to get my hand on that 50th Year Anniversary electone theme song! Someday My Prince Will Come. But it look soooooooo hard, I took 6 months to learn Ayura last time when I first started, this one...about so? >.<""

Memphis Belle

Image
I never like much of battle/war movies much actually. But yesterday, I was off, and my dad was watching this movie, and so I sat down and watch too. This war movie wasn't like any others that normally about the senarios or history of a certain place. This one is about the war plane "Memphis Belle" or just "Belle" as the soldiers would call her. It is a World War II bomber with all young crews onboard, they have to finish their 25th and final mission in 1943, to Bremen bombing a Nazi supply factory, after that they can all go home. I wouldn't say much about the story, you have to watch it yourself, worth the time. After watching it, I really feel like mentioned by families of the soldiers in the movies, there's many other ways of solving political problems other then war. Memphis Belle during refurbishment in 2003. from wikipedia I searched up info about Belle. It is still now at National Museum of the United States Air Force. It was the first US bomber...

Pong Nan 藍奕邦 - 靈光

Image
靈光 曲/詞: 藍奕邦 編: Ted Lo 監: 藍奕邦 伍仲衡 徐繼宗 這驅殼和肉身 總會 難逃避必經的耗損 愛是會超越短暫生存 並無一息間斷 無需 來為誰唏噓 來讓晨光蒸發掉剩餘眼淚 隨風去 都揮之不去 再不要靠近釐定散聚 頭上一絲黑髮隨年漸白 懷內一顆心跳緩緩靜下 呼吸 停頓 偏卻 從未 吹熄 熊熊地亮照的火把 如若真的相信輪迴的話 還未急於觸碰霎眼煙花 此刻 離別 且看 生命 昇華 耀眼得叫誰也跪下 即使挽留在手 轉眼 如塵劃遍了宇宙 美麗放心頭永垂不朽 哪用緊握佔有 靈光 如遁形的光 從未停止普照著大地蒼茫 提醒我 放下我的悲愴 尚要繼續尋覓沿途風光 頭上一絲黑髮隨年漸白 懷內一顆心跳緩緩靜下 呼吸 停頓 偏卻 從未 吹熄 熊熊地亮照的火把 如若真的相信輪迴的話 還未急於觸碰霎眼煙花 此刻 離別 且看 生命 昇華 誰話過祗得一剎那 心間 留住 這片 鮮艷 光華 我更加堅強過活吧 I haven't been listening to Pong's songs since his songs became more commercialized. So I didn't go thru all his song from his last album. I heard his new album is coming out soon. And I went to listen to some of his previous album songs, and I found this song, pretty sad one. Looking forward for his next album =)

Sunday again

Sunday again yes. And I finally have mood to sit down here and blog a bit. Nowadays Sundays for me is not as hectic but I have lots to do and with CNY coming also. I tried to clean up my rooms for the past month but I really don't have a good time to do so, and I'm always tired. Woke up around 10.30am this morning. Made myself clean up my wadrobe, packed away many clothes, not exactly old ones but those that I seldom wear and don't want to wear. Coz no point buy to keep so many clothes when we also buy new clothes, my small wadrobe will burst la XD Oh well, didnt pack away as many clothes as the last round, but still feel relieved a bit seeing my wadrobe clears up a bit haha~ Ah well, still many clothes on the bed need to clean up..... later la! Back to this room, my floor is full of books, papers, junk etc.....(cleanest spot at the electone) Ah well, I shredded manyyyyyyy unwanted papers n scores, FUN! Finally below my table have leg space, threw many junks away. But still...

awhhhhhhh

I'm gonna have sweet dreams with music, orchestra and HIM in it~~ Sooooooo energetic and lively conductiong ^______^ haha! Krzysztof Urbański~ hopefully to see you soon!
