It's not the things you do which hurt, it's the things you don't...


Song of the moment: T.M. Revolution - Heart of Sword

Yaru dake son suru yona, mainichi wa
Sha ni kamaeteta hou koso, raku ni naru

Atsukute, tsurai jibun wo kakushite, mijikai toki wo ikiteru

Hitori de wa, tooi ashita wo
Yoake no mama de, koesou de
Hottokeba, hashiru omoi yo
Yume mo mata, sure chigai

Kanpeki to chau, jinsei no shuushi
Puramai zero da nanteba honto ka na?
Shinu made ni tsukaikiru, un no kazu
Semete, jibun de dashiire wo sasete


(More effort, more damage--this is my daily life.
Taking a cynical attitude may give me some comfort...

Hiding myself, heated and irritated; living only a short time.

When I'm alone, tomorrow feels far away.
And I must go over still into the darkness of dawn.
If I let my emotions free,
My dreams will once again not go well.

I think the balance sheet of my life is imperfect.
If I add up the pluses and minuses, will it really equal zero?
I want to control all my luck
That may be used up before my life is ended.)
Heart of Sword by T.M. Revolution

Watched Howl's Moving Castle last Saturday. Despite the 'overwhelming' response, only JY managed to make it in the end. I was really hoping more people would come, especially since a few people, including JY would be making the trip to Tekong soon, where our National 'Get Fit' program (a.k.a National Service) for males 18 and above is being held. Nonetheless, the movie was pretty good.
Basically, Howl no Ugoku Shiro is about a girl, Sophie Hatter, who has been cursed to become a 90 year old lady by the wicked Witch of the Waste. Thus, she decides to run away from home, in the hope of finding a cure when she inadvertently runs into the Wizard Howl and his moving castle. Although it had a strong start, it started to get a little confusing towards the end. Should you have any doubts about the plot, I recommend that you purchase the original novel by Diana Wynne Jones to clear your doubts. [Movie Rating: 8.5/10]

Played Touch Rugby on Sunday with a couple of the youth. Considering that two-thirds of them failed to turn up, the fact that we did play was probably a blessing. Due to a couple of unique rules that Melvin came up with to try and make it an even game, our team led from start to finish (thanks a lot to Su Ai), even though I lost track of the score 15 minutes into the game. After the game, I wanted to talk to KK about it, but something came up, so it was delayed until later at night, when we could finally talk in private. After finding out what they talked about, I really wanted to cry/angst/scream in agony out loud. But I couldn't. In fact, if I think about it, I haven't had a good cry in years.

There's a chinese saying you know, which says "Real men only shed blood, not tears". Unconsciously, I have been following this saying for years. However, recent events has led me to reconsider it. That, perhaps I've been taking it too literally. Perhaps, being able to express your true emotions, be it happiness or sadness, is a sign of strength too? I guess that I've been bottling up my feelings and emotions for so long that maybe...I've forgotten how to cry. Some people may laugh at this, some may feel sorry, others might even understand...but this is just how I feel.

PS: I also find it funny that for the past few weeks Melvin of all people has been telling me what I've been trying to tell him to do a month or so ago. Well, I guess that's a good thing but...just let me off the hook for a while alright? Give me a little time first.
