Song: 最快乐的那一年
Artiste : 梁静茹 Fish Leong
Here's how the story goes...
This song actually "belongs" to me and my ex gf. And it only came about after we broke up, so for those of you who understand the song, you will know its so suitable for broken up couples.
But thats not all. I usually meet up with this ex gf of mine for lunch or dinner or whatever. So on this particular night (about 2 years ago) , we went for drinks at a pub, and I dropped her home after that at around 12+am. So I was driving home, switching radio stations to find something which suits my mood.... and this suddenly I heard this song.
At that time the song was close to the end, so I only heard from the chorus (我们最快乐的那一年 onwards...) onwards. Imagine with just that 20secs, I was so into the song and was hoping that the DJ would announce the name of the song or even the singer. But that did not happen. So I thought maybe I'll call my ex to ask if she heard the song, and whether she knew of the song.
But just before I reached for my handphone, my ex called me. And she was all excited asking "Did you hear it? did u hear it? the song over 93.3? Do you know what song was that?"
"Ya I did and was about to call to to ask about the same thing. I think its by Fish Leong, but I dunno the name. Very nice, very touching lyrics. .... dunno about the front part, but the rest definitely describes us.... "
"Ya.....really lor...very nice.... just like describing our past and emotions"
OK so how many times do you people come across a song that describes 100% of what you are going through, and on top of that the person involved in it actually heard the song at the same time, called u just when u are about to call her, AND is just like you, never heard the song before but totally loves it?
I promised her that I'll go find out about the song and get the CD. You won't be able to imagine how difficult it is to find a song which you only know the ending and not even sure of the artiste. So what I did was I bought and borrowed all the Fish Leong CDs that I could find and listened to every single song. Darn! Wasn't there!
So I looked up on the net and I found there was an album from Fish that was missing from what I had. Believe of not... this album, cannot be found in the CD shops of JB and even the famous "pirated" stores in JB do not have it! (or at least for the one month that I was bz looking).
So the other option was to search from the net. I typed in all the lyrics as well as I could remember, but at could not find the right song. I was doing this everyday for a week, and was about to try other ways when upon closer inspection of the search box, HUH???? HOW COULD I HAVE TYPED IN A WRONG WORD??? *&%^&%^*(&!! I replaced the error and within 10 mins, I found the song!!!!
Yes, the song was in that elusive Fish Leong album afterall. You guys can't imagine my joy when I finally got the song. Was so happy that I had teary eye and all. Serious!!! :)
Listening the whole song for the 1st time... its like having found your true love.... hahahahaha
Ok.... here's the lyrics :
一部怀旧的电影淋湿了心情
An old movie dampens my heart
你的爱还在旅行或已定居哪里
Your love is still on holiday, but where will it settle down upon?
也许遗憾和年轻总绑在一起
Maybe regrets will always come along as you age
不容许一点委屈等放手才懂惋惜
Never allowing ourselves to suffer, but regretting it as soon as we've lost each other
静下心来发现过去大半是甜蜜回忆
When you think about about it calmly, you realise most of the memories are sweet ones
我最快乐那一年
During my happiest year
是你陪我经历一切
You accompanied me thru everything
什么都生动又强烈
Things were so lively and the feelings were so strong
有真正在活着的感觉
That It feels like I'm truely alive
我们最快乐的那一年
Our happiest year
像浓缩了最精华的时间
Was like a condensed amount of time
短暂却永远是火焰
Short, but will always be like a flame
在情绪冰凉时暖和心田
Warming our hearts when we are feeling cold
多留恋都不能活在从前
No matter how we miss our past, we cannot live in it
决定不愁眉苦脸不让深爱的人挂念
We promised not to look sad, so that we will not be missed by the one whom we love so deeply.
Have to forgive my translation... Its very difficult to translate Mandarin songs coz the syntax and grammer is so different... hhahahaa But that's the gist of it. Touching, isn't it?
about my life, my stuff and anything else that comes to mind

Ridiculous Idea!!
I was going through today's newspaper and I saw this report. The title says it all : "Bloggers May Have To Register - Government seeks to prevent malicious content"
Oh COME on!!!! Whats wrong with these people?
I had an entry in my blog about the "prequel" of all this hoo-ha about bloggers leading to the events recently. Now they are saying "there were a lot of avenue for anyone to host websites with malicious content which could harm the country's security." HUH?? DUH??.......
There HAS and WILL ALWAYS be avenues and ways which a country's security could be breach. That's why we have the police, that's why we have the various ministries, departments, committees, blah blah blah....And with all the "talent" in the local government, THIS IS THE SUGGESTION THEY CAN COME OUT WITH????
Yes, there's the age old saying "If you are not involved in anything bad, why the fear of letting people know of your identity?" Its not that I want to hide when I'm saying anything bad on my blog, but there ARE personal issues that I would like to only share with family, friends or the online community. I don't NEED and DO NOT WANT the government to know that I fell out of love today, or my pet died yesterday or whatever. And sometimes I would like to receive feedbacks and comments without letting other people know who am I, so that it can be a somewhat honest, truthful and unbiased info.
Although the suggestion is and can only be limited to .my sites, its still such a incomprenhisible idea. Hey.... they were not even so "keen" on violence or ponorgraphy on the internet. Just because of malicious remarks by a certain individual, on a certain minister, on doing "certain things", they get so "excited".
Blogs are in my personal opinion, JUST THAT. PERSONAL OPINIONS. Whether there's any truth to what I blog, I am the only one who knows it. Try and grow a brain and decide for yourself what you read. I am entitled to MY opinion, and if you don't like to read or know other people's opinion, DUN READ THE BLOG!!!
Like I said, responsibility comes from both parties, the bloggers and the readers. There's no doubt that any prominent individual or organisation or government will receive more attention than they would like to. If there's a malicious rumour or post on a blog that is getting so much attention, just do thorough and transparent investigation and also publish it on a blog or anything!! I'm sure the government has much more access to the various media than any individual. Or do they feel starting an investigation everytime something "malicious" comes out is simply too tedious? Come on... if the topic has garnered so much interest and feedback, wouldn't it be good if the facts are clarified once and for all? I don't think there's a need to "meet the people" have "dialogues" etc etc only when elections are near. These sessions can be on blogs, where I think opinions will be more forthcoming.
Instead of making things difficult for bloggers, why not try to think of ways that bloggers could help the government instead?

So Sweet...
I saw this on a webpage. Sweet lah..
A girl ask a guy if she was pretty,
He said no.
She asked him if he wanted her,
He said no...
She asked if she left he would cry,
He said no.
She turned to leave,
He grabbed her arm and said:
"You are not pretty, you are BEAUTIFUL,
I don't want you, I NEED you.
And if you leave, I will DIE....
I LOVE YOU"

I'm Like your CDs
我就像是那些CD，被你放在一边。
选歌时是多么的用心， 听的时候是多么的感动。
你用心了几次， 又感动了多少？
有心情时你会把CD拿来听，
它们多可望每一次听时你都会感动，
它们多希望你会了解每一首歌背后的意思。
我就像它们一样，多么希望，多么可望。。。

Alicia : Hmmmm errrrr ehhhhh.... Aiya this girl I've known for 5 years. How to describe? Ah!!! She's the "I know she's the 100% will NEVER take advantage/hurt/harm me" kind. And to her I'm also the "will NEVER take advantage/hurt/harm" her kind. Anything we do for each other is always for the good of the other person. And the rest as they say, is history. :)
Alan : My cousin!! He's 2 months older than me. We went to the same primary school, studied in S'pore and stays very near my place (although he works n stays in S'pore now). When we were kids, we fought a lot!! Hahahaha. More about him later.

Derek : This one...childhood friend. Apart from Alan, he is the other friend that I've known for wah... how long ar??? .... 25 years!!! Most of you dun even have bro/sis for that long!!! And its not the just "know" kind. We've been in touch throughout the years, so he's more like family than anything else. hahahaha. He's born in May, same year as me. Now he's in New York, US and comes back on average once a year.
The thing with 3 of us is, Alan's born in April, Derek in May, and me... June!!!! All in the same year! That's why we are brathez!!!! and will be for the longest of time :)

幸福
如果每天都能像昨天那样，简简单单，有说有笑的过每一天，那算不算就是两个人的幸福？
如果你真的明白我说的每一句话，写的每一个字，可又不闻不问，是不是对我来说是最痛苦的惩罚？
为你心痛时，该怎样诉苦？为你开心时，又能跟谁说？

你不知道
很好听的歌! 超感动哦!!
作词:崔惟楷 作曲:杨韵禾
编曲:陈熙
把回忆重新翻一遍
重温我们的交集点
有点甜也有点远
一切的开始就像昨天
剪不掉好多画面
闭上眼还看得见
我好想能停在你的身边
我的想念何时你才会发现
你不知道我的难熬
爱情在我们中迟到
爱的暗号你没有收到
我要怎么办才好
你不知道我想依靠
只要能躲在你怀抱
我不知道
有天你能否只对我好
可不可以靠近一点
记住这张爱你的脸
闭上眼等待永远
我好想能停在你的身边
我的想念
何时你才会发现
