Japan


I'm pretty sure everyone knows about the Japan tsunami by now...
So...wow, if you've watched the news - you'd know about how LARGE the disaster was.
It was honestly...horrible and heartbreaking.
Even though I'm glad that the japanese exchange students we had last year are completely safe -
but it's still really saddening that thousands and thousands of people are confirmed dead or missing.
And a lot of the japanese exchange students had friends and family in Tokyo so I hope they won't be worried and that their friends and family will all be safe.


I hope everyone can help support Japan and hopefully they can rebuild again,
hopefully the people who have lost family and friends will regain their strength,
hopefully everyone can help contribute and continue to pray for Japan.

I know this is really late but it's just been really sad,
and here I am just looking around and nothing ever happens here
and I'm just so glad - it's good the way it is.

Thank you to everyone who donated~~!!!!

It was my birthday on the 8th so I wanted to share some photos from my surprise party! :D



Kimi ni Todoke ED Kimi ni Todoke - May's Lyrics / Translation



douka ima dake wa furimukanaide
please don't look at me right now

yuugare sawagu kaze
the sun's set, the wind's blowing

furesouna kyouri
and we're so close that we can almost touch

kimi wo mitsumeteru zutto
my gaze has always been fixed on you

kimi ga suki de
i like you

kimi ga suki de
i've always liked you

kono omoi koi demo ii
i don't mind if this emotion is what they call is love

kizu tsuitero ii
and i don't care if i get hurt by it

nando demo tsutaetai
i just want to tell you, over and over again

kimi ni todoke
i want to reach you



Oh ... Wow...Year 11...Lovely!

Year 11 started off with a BANG! Not one of the teachers I had, had a discussion of 'how the holidays went' or 'let's introduce yourself' No siree, they immediately started handing out course outlines and telling you that year 11 is going to be much more stricter because of the new principal.

Yes...that totally makes us feel so much better indeed. It just feels as if we didn't even have the holidays and totally just get into school work because on the first day I was handed...an assignment. Third day? Assignment and 2 worksheets and 7 pages of homework which totally stressed me out so much.

This year will probably be exactly the same as last year - the usual...boring, unexciting, misery-filled and stressful year. My life is so boring sometimes I wonder if I should just totally lie on this blog and talk about this new made up life I have in my mind. You know...like it's filled with exciting dramas and funny teachers and girls who fall in love but then something exciting happens that stops them. Then people can quote it like it's in the movies so it'll be like totally AMAZING.

But no, sadly...no.
Life is just boring as.

Goodbye Holidays

So, school is tomorrow. First year of YEAR 11! That's right, two more years until I graduate and finally become an adult and go to university/college and start life. I can finally experience the life my Sims had that I never got to have!!!


Yeah, so, holidays were really quite boring and the only exciting thing that happened was sleeping. Oh and I forgot to mention the exciting dreams I had whilst dreaming. The saying 'Dreams are better than reality.' Oh yeah - I couldn't even wake up until 6pm some days (during the holidays) because my dreams were so fascinating.


This morning I was dreaming of Skins...I really don't know if that was a good or bad thing o.O because it's like R rated and everything but it was definitely generation 1 of Skins. I'm really beginning to like generation 2 of Skins though :) Everyone finds Pandora annoying and they hate her but she's okay for me. I like her. She's useless.

We also have a river cruise in March. Everyone's already found their dresses and everything ~ well except me of course. Or else I would have already put it on my blog instead of moping around wondering what to blog about today. I went around Whitfords where they have like Sportsgirl, Dotti, THE FOREVER NEW! Ugh yeah, no luck cause everything is not 'river cruise' enough except for Forever New except everythings SOOOO EXPENSIVE!!!! It's like you're looking for something formal but not too formal. Everything here is like way too formal or way too casual!! It's really hard :/ But I don't know, I've only been window shopping at Whitfords. I still need to go to the city to check it out.

... Anyhoo, school tomorrow so I better go to sleep. Though I have my alarm clock so I don't know why everyones worried. :)




You're Perfect

 
 

Don't let anyone tell you you're not - Perfect.
Be Yourself.

Paintbrushes, Coffee and Psychology


Fight for what you love, And love what you fight for
School is starting soon. Year 11, they say.
That's two more years until I graduate. That's a scary thought.
I'm one of those people who are still deciding what to do with their life.
I don't have any particular interests besides blogging and going on facebook.
I'm not an outgoing person and I'm excluded from the rest of the crowd because of one flaw.
I'm an idealist, I think too much and speak too little. I don't speak what's on my mind; I bottle it up.
It's just so scary to think that once I'm over these 2 years of exams and constant studying - I'm out there, in society where I'll have to work or continue studying at different universities from my current friends.
I'll lose contact with them (like I always do) and they'll make new ones and everything in highschool just seems like a blur.
When did time catch up and speed ahead?
I'm still taking it in all very slowly.
I don't want this to be over.
Not yet.

I don't even know what I want to be and what to do with my life yet,
All I can do is wait, look around to see if God has given me any signs.
I'm blind though, I can't pick up these signs because I'm dreaming.
I've been dreaming a lot these days too.
The dreams are indescribable and queer.
It's as if it's predicting the future but the future seems so far away.

I'm just a confused teenage girl with too much on her mind.

End rant.



Skins US?!


Nuff said


30 Day Asian Drama Challenge [in a couple of days] Day 1 ~ Q1-6

Because I can never seem to actually finish it all in time. I always end up finding a better one to do ahaha.

So I'll split it up into 5 days....Which is 6 questions each :)


Kimi ni Todoke 2nd Season episode 1: Valentine's Day

Contains SPOILERS and LOTS OF PHOTOS:


So after a week of constant waiting I finally watched Kimi ni Todoke Season 2 episode 1 (the other one didn't count!!) - Valentine's Day. Although I've already read the manga but watching the anime made me even more upset that Sawako didn't give the chocolates to Kazehaya!! He was looking forward to them and it seemed like everyone else had them except for him D:

Even though Kurumi is really adorable and cute, in this episode I really hated her!! No wonder why they put the Episode 0 about Kurumi and her "rejection" so we could feel sorry for her and understand her side of the story. Me and Kurumi have a love/hate relationship. I totally hate her sometimes but then I totally love her and pity her. Haha. Though Sawako will always and I mean ALWAYS beat Kurumi!! Both personality and looks ^_^



In Ecstasy by Kate McCaffrey


So this book 'in ecstasy' caught my eye while I was borrowing books from the library since I really have no social life and reading is better than wasting your time sitting in front of the monitor refreshing the facebook/tumblr page :/

So the blurb says:

Ecstasy. I'd always thought I might try it one day. I'd heard kids at school talking about getting wasted on the weekends. They made it sound awesome. I pictured the roughly made tablets with their tiny butterflies. An amazing experience inside a tiny pill. 
My body ached and my face was sore - I guess from smiling so much. I don't remember ever laughing more. A new world had opened up fro me, a place where I was confident and beautiful and a hot guy like Lewis wanted to be with me. That morning I figured life couldn't get any better. How could something that made you feel like that be bad for you?
So we studied Anna's Story in school and they actually mentioned it in here.

'Go easy, Mia. Drinking too much water can be as bad as dehydration.' 
 'What?' How could pure water be bad for you?
'A girl died. She drank heaps of water, way too much, and it diluted her blood. Her brain was swollen.' 
They also mentioned how society has that whole propaganda thing telling you everything about why drugs are so bad for you and everything. It's very realistic. It covers a whole lot of issue and the author is honest and doesn't side with either side. It's not biased. So this is a book, I would recommend to teenagers and parents and people who want to know the truth about the drug culture. This was definitely a good read and I couldn't put the book down. It's from these two girls point of views - Mia and Sophie.



I want... Red Hair

No, not the orangey-red dullish colour but the VIBRANT red colour!

Park Bom :D
picture taken from:
http://panache-halloweentown.blogspot.com/
Seriously want her hair!!

Vibrant Red Hair!
I actually dyed my hair red when I was 13 (before my hair died and splitted away~ because it was so dead from all the dying I did) Hey, dying your hair was cool in year 8 haha.

See! See?
Ah..you probably can't :/
I couldn't find anymore pictures that actually showed my red hair because well...I dyed it over black hair so you could only see it in the light. But I want vibrant (and visible) red hair the next time I attempt to dye my hair!! Which will not be this year...because I'm focusing on growing it out more than colouring it ^^ 

I might be going back to Hong Kong this year, maybe I'll find a vibrant red hair dye just in time for the year 12 prom. Yeah yeah yeah!! I'm totally cutting my hair after the year twelve prom -.- I've been growing it out since year 8. (Failing badly ;_;) 

Really (seriously this year!) not going to cut my hair at all!!! omggommggomgg I want red hair so bad.

About the IU Translation

As much as I love people coming to my blog and getting lots of people viewing my blog and making people happy ^^ My blog is is a personal ranting one where I just post personal stuff and not a lyrics blog.
I don't like it when people only visit my blog just to get the lyrics. It kind of makes me upset even though I should be happy. I want people to visit my blog because they want to and it's interesting. I don't want people to visit my blog just to get the lyrics and not read anything else from my blog because that's not the main purpose of my blog.

 I aim to get more people reading my blog, aim to get more followers and I don't care how many people visit my blog this month people of those lyrics I only get hits but no more followers or comments. I get motivated to blog when I get followers and comments. I think many bloggers would agree on that one too!

I know my blog is like boring and not that interesting that's why not many people read it but I'm trying to make it more interesting but my friends, family and some people from my school might read this blog so I have to be careful with what I write or I'll get in trouble. I am also restricted to not posting photos from school because it is not allowed.

As much as I love my blog, I hope everyone understands that I only post stuff that I like and that I would read back later on in the years. This blog is mainly for that reason because I love reading stuff I write from when I was little and it's so funny as I look back. :D I hope everyone agrees with me, I don't think I'm going to post anymore lyrics on my blogs anymore (maybe just the songs I like!) because it is really annoying me how my #1 Popular post is not an original post I created but a lyrics post. :/

Otome Youkai Zakuro Episode 13 (Finale)

I finished~ I finished~ I finished~ Otome Youkai Zakuro! YEAH YEAH YEAH. It was so brilliantly good!



Thought the fighting scene (against Lady Rangui) went on way too quickly and everything was burning and on fire and yet they were fighting. Damn Lady Rangui is so freaky!!!! Her voice and the eyes and the arms...and the bald hair. I like her better in human form even though her humungous boobs irks me x_x



When Agemaki told Zakuro that he loved her and when Zakuro pulled out her pendant to unleash her full power!!! IT WAS SOOO EXCITING!!! Then Zakuro just full on killed Lady Rangui with one strike. (Pretty fast fighting scene) But.....AGEMAKI TOLD ZAKURO THAT HE LOVED HER!!!!! Then she replied "You're suppoed to wait until everything's been taken care of' XD



 I thought the building would have collapsed already XD Especially the bit when Omodaka wanted to stay with his mother. I thought it was collapse already since it was dragging on and on...



At the end, it was soo sweet and the guys had to leave TT_TT so each of them said their goodbyes. They were all so very sweet but so sorry Zakuro and Agemaki but I thought Riken and Susukihotaru were the winners! They were so incredibly cute and adorable.

I got soooooooo sad when they left and the ending song just made it worse. Then Omodaka and that other half-spirit girl were alive!!!! 


Then when they came back and got reinstated I was like 'well I got sad for nothing' AND THEY THE TWO LITTLE SPIRITS!!! AHAHAHAHA They told the rest of them that Zakuro and Agemaki kissed!!!! Sooo funny!!!


Letter 1 Your best friend

Dear Best Friend,

you're the bestest friend in the world and I feel like the luckiest girl in the world to have you as my best friend. Everyone likes you A LOT and you're funny, smart, creative and beautiful inside and and out. Best of all you actually listen to what I have to say and when I'm with you I don't have to be the listener or the advice giver ALL THE TIME... but I can actually talk to you about anything. You don't brush my feelings aside and when I when I do something really bad to you or someone else - you don't judge me and I'm really grateful for that. You take me seriously when I need to be taken seriously - even though I joke most of the time! :O You're there for me and for other people and I hope I can be there for you too when you need me. I will always be there to listen! Thank you for being such a good best friend this year. I really appreciate it.

I will try my best to be a better friend next year!

Lots of love xoxo

Sincerely,
Cyndi.

Nobody's Perfect : Michelle Phan Controversy [rant]

I really don't want to post this but I have to get it out of my system since it's bugging me to much as to how much hate there is towards a person.

Dear 'Haters,' 'Ex-Phans,' 'People passing by,' 'Person who happened to drop by,' 'Followers,' 'YouTubers,' and 'People in the Trash a Guru' section (not all of the people because some actually hate moderately and some people just full on hate all the way)

I am not a 'minion' or an obsessed fangirl or boy nor am I a hater. I just think that you should hate moderately (oh, I use to like her until... i did/didn't like that tutorial but she did do a messy job/ though i did like,) and not go on whincing and complaining about every single flaw about Michelle Phan (I hated that tutorial everything was messy and stupid like...and like..., did you see what she posted on facebook? she should have just used..., YOU SHOULD UNSUBSCRIBE! ). Nobody is perfect like seriously! You might think that 'oh that's what everyone says!' but how else am I suppose to break it to you that everybody is flawed?

So, some people write back saying that they shouldn't be so mean and everything in the forums. Then people write back as to why Michelle is a bad person and then they write 'if you want to rave about a guru there's a section for it - this is trash a guru.' Since I'm on neither, I can just write whatever I want right? Well here goes.


Canon Rock violin


LOOOOOOOOLLlLL Before the video started I was laughing my head off because of the masks/.. LOlL.
Too damn funny but at the same time it was awesome!!!!
