Sometimes I lay under the moon
And I thank God I’m breathin’
Then I pray don’t take me soon
‘Cause I am here for a reason

Sometimes in my tears I drown
But I never let it get me down
So when negativity surrounds
I know someday it’ll all turn around because

All my life I been waitin’ for
I been prayin’ for, for the people to say
That we don’t want to fight no more
They’ll be no more wars
And our children will play, one day

It’s not about win or lose ’cause we all lose
When they feed on the souls of the innocent blood
Drenched pavement keep on movin’
Though the waters stay ragin’

And in this life you may lose your way
It might drive you crazy
But don’t let it phase you, no way

Sometimes in my tears I drown
But I never let it get me down
So when negativity surrounds
I know someday it’ll all turn around because

All my life I been waitin’ for
I been prayin’ for, for the people to say
That we don’t want to fight no more
They’ll be no more wars
And our children will play, one day

One day this all will change
Treat people the same
Stop with the violence down with the hate
One day we’ll all be free and proud
To be under the same sun
Singing songs of freedom like

I was on my way back from terawikh when this song airs on the hitz.fm and for some reason, I want to put it up here. The title of the song is The Only Exception by Paramore. (currently I’m having these Paramore-Charice-Lovato-Ke$ha-and-so-many-more-fever) 😛

The Only Exception

When I was younger I saw my daddy cry and curse at the wind.
He broke his own heart and I watched as he tried to re-assemble it.
And my mamma swore she would never let herself forget.
And that was the day that I promised I’d never sing of love if does not exist.
But darling..

You are the only exception

Maybe I know somewhere deep in my soul that love never lasts.
And we’ve got to find other ways to make it alone or keep a straight face.
And I’ve always lived like this keeping a comfortable, distance.
And up until now I swore to myself that I’m content with loneliness,
’cause none of it was ever worth the risk.

But you are the only exception

I’ve got a tight grip on reality,
but I can’t let go of whats part of me here.

I know you’re leaving in the morning, when you wake up,
leave me of some kind of proof it’s not a dream.

You are the only exception

And I’m on my way to believing

Right now I have this: Keep you feet on the ground but never stop reaching for the stars!

Ok so I was listening to Arashi’s All the Best! album and my ears caught a song. An old song. Slow and sweet.

I especially love Sho’s rap part. Something with the way he sings it that night maybe. And is it just me or it is the fact that Aiba’s husky voice is a thumbs up? ^^

And I just love EXILE’s FIREWORKS.

Huahhhhh…..! I’ve abandoned my blog for almost a month! Yikes!

So yeah. I’m busy with classes and all but actually I’m not that busy. Its just that… I can’t find the mood like I used to have last time when I’m in holiday at home. But I’ll still write; I still find blogging is a nice thing to do as it keeps track of what I’ve been doing each day, or week, or month =P

Nihonggo class is fun. Rika-sensei wa yasashi desu -> I’m not sure if its correct or not >_< but I love new things that I get to know in class. You see, I already knew my hiragana before going to class and I do know some of the words that sensei are using so I’m kinda… Show off? Nah~ But I can’t resist myself from saying out loud whatever things that I knew. Thanks to all the dramas and shows I’ve watch and also my friend, I find it hard to differentiate the formal and casual usage of everyday conversation. Haha. And I need to work on the numbers as well; it keeps giving me headache everytime I tried to say the numbers with correct positioning and all.

My PERL class is fun! The lab tutor are acting like a celebrity; so some of my classmates were calling him that but for me, he’s forces me to concentrate in class and everyone knows that concentrating is very important in order for you to understand. And the lecturer is so funny and so intelligent too! For my other class, its called Management of Information System if I’m not mistaken and I love the lecturer too. Puan Rosnah made us discuss things in forum and she made me read the book; which I never did before. Oh and yeah, in this class we need to do a case study so me and my group decided to do on a -rumah orang tua- and so far I just love my group; all are responsible and its not hard to get cooperation and so I want to give my best too. Gambaremasu!

Hm few weeks back Desa Saujana held an event, it was called Expo ICT, maybe, and I went there just to look around. My friend bought some things for their lappy while I have my eyes on one of the laptop they have there but yeah, my economy condition doesn’t allows me to even ask for the price. Sigh~ So I went for blood donation. I don’t have any idea why I find that blood donating is a fun thing to do; it is not, but I went anyway and I will do it again in the future. Donating is good, ne =P

As a fangirl… I’m currently following Buzzer Beat; Yamapi’s drama and I try to download Orthros no Inu and Niini no Koto Wasurenaide (I’m not so sure about the tittle) both have Ryo as the actor but so far the internet at my house hates me so much it limits my download and I can’t torrent in my school’s network and I can’t download any .001 part from school too. Buzzer Beat is so different from any Pi’s drama before so yeah, I find it really interesting to watch and even though I do have the idea of how the drama will end but I still want to know how the story evolved. Hate Pi’s hair though… And Keiko is sooooooo cute! Oh not to mention those basketball guys; HOT!

Currently I’m collecting all the Arashi no Shukudai-kun episodes and out of everything they have only 1 or 2 that is -boring- and now they have almost 150 episodes. Arashi is crazy! XD Looooooove their Everything single. Besides Ans, of course I’m following VS Arashi too and I just discover another show that gets my attention; Domoto Kyoudai. OMG those people are hilariiiiiious! Seriously, for those who never watch it, you might want to YouTube it now. Its crazy, trust me. Both Domotos are total baka with those innocent face.

Ok this is my latest favorite PV from Domoto Koichi-Ayakashi and the other one is B’z-Ichibu to Zenbu (Buzzer Beat theme song)

Domoto Koichi is one of the kyoudai in Domoto Kyoudai (note that both of them have nothing to do with each other relatively) and he is also one of KinKi Kids guy and this is his latest single and it got to top the Oricon’s daily ranking chart on 28th July 2009. Love the move and something in this song gets my attention. And I just love the energy from B’z song. It got to the top of the charts on 4th August 2009. Source from oriconcharts@LJ.

That was shocking. OK I’ll admit that lately I’m so into Jpop and Jdrama I almost forget that there is other part of the world that still exist but I do try my best not to left behind; at least not to this big big big really big news.


Nisa was checking her mail this morning through my lappy and when she logged out, the tittle of an article in the front page catches our attention. So this morning through all radio stations, we’ve been listening to the same news with Michael’s song over and over again. And I believe that rotation of song will continue for at least 3 days.

Honestly I’m not a big fan of him but there’s one video clip of his song that I really really love when I was a kid but I can’t recall the tittle of the song. The video clip has these elephant that is shot dead and everything is crumbled and dead too but towards the end of the video clip, the thorn is there back and everything come back to live. Mannnnn can’t remember at all although I have it ringing in my ears right now! And I used love his song “You Are Not Alone” and “Smooth Criminal”; I mean, who doesn’t, right? (to name few of his song that I remembered).

Yup, you are not alone.

Okay. Now can I wish that I’d be THERE with enough money to come to all their concerts AND buy the album too?

I was early this morning and as usual my life will start with me browsing through all the blogs and LJ’s posts. And of course. The world are talking about the same think (its my world, at least >_<) and as the tittle says, its Arashi time! Yatta! ^_^

Arashi - Believe
So yeah, these boys are already 10 years in the industry as Arashi and now they are going to do a tour and will be releasing an album which is a compilation of their best singles. The name of the album is All the BEST! 1999-2009and it includes 32 songs; that is 31 old songs which the group member will choose + 1 new song that they wrote for us ^_^ This album will be released in 19th August so I guess sooner they’ll open the pre-order in major online sites. Of course, they will release the RE and LE too. Yay! ^_^

28-30 August 2009 – Kokuritsu
18,19 September 2009 – Fukuoka Dome

Short post. Well it is not my post actually. I’m actually copy-paste-ing since the author allowes it (and because I can’t read Japanese =P)

Dozo.

*I do not know what 6/8 week means =P

Sugoi ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Arashi rocks! ^__^

I’ve finished Ryusei no Kizuna. Trust me guys, you’ll finish a box of tissue without you realizing it (that is if you finish the drama only in one shoot). And I love the insert song, ORION by Mika Nakashima. She even appear in the drama for few episodes and her character is so funny. ^_^ I’m not familiar with her though, but from what I read, she has number of singles and albums since 2002 and was determined to become a singer since she was very young.

The song are very sad. Maybe because I love OST and when I listen to the song, I’m able to picture what the song means. >_< Gyaa ~ I dunno how to write because I can’t put into words what I feel of the song so you can get the lyrics here but I put the English translation below   ^_^

Nakashima Mika

Nakashima Mika

ORION

It was me who cried
Not showing your weakness doesn’t mean that you’re strong
Because you told me. I believe

My breath becomes cold and my foot stretches in front of me back home
I might even forget the warmness that I felt just now
I just realized how it feels to love someone

It was me who cried
The beautiful winter constellations, hope they don’t disappear from the skies
I looked at it, I believe

I want to protect this hand so that it will never separate
What I want to say doesn’t come as words
Laughing at things surrounding you softly

Counting the number of shooting stars
I’m here right now because we met
Because you taught me, I believe

It was me who cried
Not showing your weakness doesn’t mean that you’re strong
Because you told me. I believe

Because you told me. I believe

*Nisa, if you read this, I’m sure you know her right? ^_^
