1. It's not everyday I get my toes squished against the shoe tip due to gravity for more than 3 hours (it's the 4th time)
2. Splurged
3. My singing may not be that horrible after all (though bad would be good to describe)
4. There are always two sides to history and life.
5. SALES AND DISCOUNTS!
   

The angel never dies. The dagger can stab, hurt, but can never kill her.

The angel was throwing a dagger into her heart when someone stabbed her, kissing her.

The devil sets off with its flaring wings, burning the souls of innocence.

Too awesome for me to quote.

And no, I refuse to blog about my day.

EDIT: And I shall add a point, that I hate ACE lessons. I truly do.

The lyrics for this song deserve a post by itself, I think.

Das Schweigen--Lacrimosa
[English translation:]

The Silence

Repulsion covers the world
Hate that flows through the hearts
Disease that goes along the line
Human being's noble lines
In wich uniform stands by uniform
In between there's a crack
That divides the races like sexes
Oh repulsion that unveils itself to the world
Nobody has seen it
Nobody has listened to it
Nobody'll talk about it
And nobody will ask about it
The street smells of blood
But nothing happened
These hands folded to pray
These hands ready to kill
These hands that pray for peace
These hands will chain them
This mouth begs for mercy
This mouth that speaks about guilt
This man! breaks down and dies
This man will live
These eyes have seen it
Howevere, these eyes will shut
Nothing stops the blood from flowing
And the silence grows louder and louder.

WOOTS I PWNED TING! =DD

With Lacrimosa!

Don't worry, it's not any song but the one on my blog (ie it's not emo, goth, whatever shit).

Too many lyrics to quote, so never mind.

EDIT: Too awesome.
Alleine Zu Zweit -- Lacrimosa
[Together Alone]

At the end of truth
At the end of light
At the end of love
At the end - there are you
(The heart empties - there goes a part of me )
Nothing has survived
We have parted in silence long ago
And with every day of 'us'
grew the lie of our love
And the further we went on our path together
The further we have grown apart

Lonely - together
We have forgotten to find us a new
Habit gaggs
Dullness suffocates
Arrogance makes you drunk
and closeness drives to flight

Dance - my life - dance
Dance with me
dance with me again
into the pure flush of naked love

If I see him/her like this
If I experience him/her
If I watch us
Something survived
And when I find strength and hope
If I could believe in us
If I could reach him/her
Have him/her for myself once more
If the base - our foundation
If we could explore us once again
If he/she only wanted
I will !

Siehst Du Mich Im Licht? -- Lacrimosa
[English translate: CAN YOU SEE ME IN THE LIGHT?]

Your lips pressed into the flesh
Mine wildly contorted
In the orgasm of vulnerability
The soul is crying out for more
Come along into my little world
And eat your way through to the scaffold
Chew each cell of my cold raw skin to pieces
And you remain empty
You have destroyed
Only experienced this ecstasy for seconds
And you remain empty
You lied and deceived
And only projected yourself in all this

Two eyes in your head
And the ears left and right
And as blind as a dead fish
You cannot understand me
No - you will never understand me
You can only talk about me
You don't give a shit if it's true or not
Because it never affects you in the end
You are the last authority
You are the gauge of the balance
You are the murderer of each essence of truth

In a short moment
Of blind arrogance
You sense your wisdom
Your falseness - your obsession
And you are not aware that
Your stupidity is the desire
Which is slowing erasing your mind
And you remain empty
You have destroyed
Only experienced this ecstasy for seconds
And you need more
You must lie and deceive
And in all of this -
Can you see me in the light?

Two eyes in your head
And the ears left and right
And as blind as a dead fish
You cannot understand me
No - you will never understand me
You can only write about me

You don't give a shit if it's true or not
Because it never affects you in the end
You are the last authority
You are the gauge of the balance
You are the murderer of each essence of truth
Your strength doesn't lie in talking
You look for your victims in monologues
Whose beings keep you alive

Two eyes in your head
And your heart in the wrong place
You are the echo of our time
You are the mouthpiece far and wide
I don't want to make any words
Since it is you who makes enough already
You will probably laugh again
In the meantime I'll drink your blood
Two eyes in your head
And your heart in the wrong place
And as deaf as a dead fish
You cannot understand me
No - you will never understand me
You will never understand me!


Enough for today. Enough.
It's all enough and never enough.

Do NOT think sick.

Thank you.

Apparently something happened. Which resulted in this cleavage.

In short, do NOT pressurise YS to comfort me ANYMORE. At ALL.

Ok?

Any doubts or whatsoever, MSN.

Break all your remaining spider legs for the remaining common tests! :)

Why am I spamming blog post ar?

This be what I got when I revisited my dead iGoogle page and clicked on "Garfield of The Day" gadget.



And presenting to you, yet another lyrics spammage.

Satura -- Lacrimosa
Satura

On my spirit's gallery
I heard the music of my soul
I saw the hole in my heart
And drank the tears of my pain
I stood in my life's shadows
Waiting for my appearance
On the street of solitude
Inside the walls of my fear
Turn around and show me your face
I behold my shadow in your hand
A last meal given
I feel the blood in your veins
But what will happen?
But what will happen?
Finally I find the lust for life
I want to feel you - to touch you
But I'm afraid of it
I'm afraid
I close my eyes
Watching into the twilight of my soul
Reaching out for you
But I just touch the fear inside
All alone in these halls
Just you and ! me
Turn around and show me your face
I've never seen this much of doors
Not so many ways out there
I've never been holding tight
But now I'm in chains
Turn around and show me your face
I feel the strenght's leaving me
I feel my eyes dim in the storm of time
I raise as an old man
The last time I reach out my hands
You turn around and show me your face
But I'm too old and I can't see you anymore.


Why I spam these lyrics, I have no idea. Goodness, I know Lacrimosa is freaking gothic and German and stuff. Perhaps, I don't expect anyone else to appreciate this kind of music (it is freaky as it is supposed to, and just...out of place?), but perhaps I would like it if people would like the lyrics.

Though I must admit, Satura is the pwnage because the lyrics are "awesome".
Satura (Album) Lyrics

Yes, Satura is both the name of the album and the first song in it.

I finally remembered my comment on the CO Camp.

Not sleeping for 2 days gives me 精神虚脱。

Don't know what that is in Chinese, but I think it's emotional drainage. I don't know.

I don't know at all.

WTF: What The Fuck
FTW: Fuck The World

So much for thinking that ftw was just the reverse joke of wtf.

The title explains itself.

Nothing much, except that my sock stinks, netball court is awesome for star-gazing and sleepless nights are fun.



I find it too short.

Sleepy.

Have not gone for sleep for 21 hours.

And I've never got out of the void.

I. Got. Pwned.

Completely pwned.

This is probably the first long and constructive post of the year.

Reached City Hall MRT station at around 1.40pm, from the escalator up to the 2nd floor onwards I got pwned. The escalator part, I shall skip, since I guess it's common for all these annual stuff.

Had to walk like a crab to navigate around. Paying in cash entails you to a shorter queue. Paying in exact amounts entitle you to a free HDD pouch.

HDD
So Toshiba have this awesome discount. 250GB HDD in red, from $125 to $109 to $83.

Me being a blue fanatic, of course got the blue one. 400GB, from $169 to $149 to $139. Not as awesome a discount jump as the red one, but still.

Got to wrong queue, good I realised early. Supposed to get a piece of paper, good I realised early too.

"You are paying by...?"
"Cash."
"Oh there is a much shorter queue for paying by cash. Just turn left and you will see it."
O_O

The queue for paying by card is like...60+ at least. The queue for paying by cash? I was the 5th person.

-to the person in front of me- "Oh, you got the second last pouch! The pouch is not for those who buy the 400GB..."
"Huh?!" -- me upon hearing it
"Ok joking lar. Actually the policy just changed." I =.=-ed.

"So this is your hard drive, the free pouch, and a free 2GB USB."
"...Huh what? 2GB USB?"
"Yes, for free."
O_O again.

-count count count- "Woah it's exactly $139! No need to give change!" -- salesperson
"OMG Thank you so much!" to me. "Give pouch give pouch, this type, must give pouch" -- cashier beside the "policy just changed" salesperson

Sennheiser
Wanted to spend on headphones, remembered my dad asked me not to spend on what I have already. So after a long while of testing and loitering around and deciding like crap and squeezing one round, I got Sennheiser Sport 80 II earphones for $59.90.

With a pair of FREE MX400 earphones!

:D

"So you came back, and you get more instead!" -- salesperson following me around

I was smiling like hell. Seriously, damn happy.

Regarding Sennheiser earphones, I really want to declare the opening of Sennheiser earphones packaging an official art. Seriously, without experience, it is hell.

But the reward is awesome XD

Laptop Bag
This part is much less epic. In fact, it's just my last stop after all the damn squeezing. Well, got it because I do need one with a handle. (So that my laptop does not get owned on MRT and buses again)

It's discounted from $40 to $28.

"Hey you want this pair of Philips bluetooth earphones? $2 only."
"O_O...never mind, thanks. I don't have bluetooth device."
"Oh don't need bluetooth device lar. They have the receiver and transmitter already."
"O_O..."
"You give your friend also can what."
"Oh ok lorh..."

Like, WHAT THE HELL? BLUETOOTH EARPHONES. PHILIPS. $2.

Concentrated pwnage.

Every $100 you spend entitles you to a lucky draw coupon. Lol got my 2 coupons. I think the people were staring at me because I was the only "child" shopping all by myself.

In summary, I got a 400GB HDD for $139 + 2GB free USB, Sennheiser Sport II 80 earphones for $59.90 + free MX 400, laptop bag for $28 + Bluetooth Earphones for $2.

Altogether, $219.90.

And I had $100 note + 3 $2 notes left over. =.=

Departure
Once again, let's skip the escalator parts. Except for the fact that the 3rd level (Sony @ Concourse) was very very very spammed.

Walk like siao, people jammed like siao, escalators pwned like siao. Reached Raffles Link.
The escalator goes down to city link. Queued for 5 minutes. After that:

-security guard with loudspeaker- "Everyone please clear off, people are coming up, there is a really big human jam downstairs, people are coming up, please clear off!" -siren-

O_O The person in front of me managed to get down. Pfft.

Wandered around, realised everywhere is jammed. Struggled around and back, found myself at Suntec city again. Saw a crowd of people asking the information counter for Marina Square about something, so I decided to try.

"Is there any other way for me to get to the MRT Station?"
"Oh the MRT Station is closed down already. You have to get out."
"Get out?"
"Yes it's closed down already. You have to get down. Just cross a junction."
"Oh so I cross a junction to get to the MRT Station?"
"No, it's closed down already. You just cross a junction."

...

Wanted to call my dad. Both Starhub public phones eat coins. The first one ate 20 cents + 50 cents, the second one ate someone else's 10 cents I picked up from the coin return box. Pfft.

No choice, queued up for taxi. I was wondering, will I be the first person to pay for taxi fares using $100 note?

Ends up, I waited for the taxi for 40 min, the taxi got me back to Chinatown Point in 5 min. It was nicely $6, which was what I had exactly other than the $100 note. Awesome.

Epilogue
Met with my dad, bought an ice mocha, got pwned due to caffeine intolerance, drank extremely expensive soda, washed car, laughed at person who sprayed water at our windscreen while asking us to proceed forward.

Today. Is. Win.

Sennheiser FTW!

After Linkin Park, the band which I declared as too awesome to behold since I-don't-know-when, the next band which I declare the status of awesome-ness will be Lacrimosa.

Kelch Der Liebe--Lacrimosa

[English translation:]

Chalice Of Love

My body dives into light
And my spirit swims behind
My heart is my compass
And love my horizon
Those words are like storms
Those glances like a rough sea
The waves engulf me often
But they never claim victory!

And who asks for me and who wants to hear me?
And who looks at me and who speaks to me?

And I - I do not want to live without an aim!
A life without love is not life!
I need no life!
I only need you!
Your body -
Your soul -
And your heart!

This one takes from my soul
That one eats from my spirit
Others drink from my love
And many achiev from my strength
I am human and I need love
But what remains is only longing
And these words that hurt me
But are not even meant for me

And who asks for me and who wants to hear me?
And who looks at me and who speaks to me?

And I - I do not want to live without an aim!
A life without love is not life!
I need no life!
I only need you!
Your body -
Your soul -
And your heart!
And whe the world is in flames
And the last of mankind has gone
Even if the sun is bursting
The light of love will remain with you

Take this chalice
With the life of a nameless clown
Of the one locked out - the one rejected
Of the shadowly creature of light
This in now the chalice
Filled with the love of a clown
Of the one locked out - the one rejected
Of the shadowly creature of love

Apparently, you are eating me up. Left to pick up all the pieces by myself. I will try. I don't know how much I can hold. I'm sorry.

No number of "argh"s can express how argh I feel right now.

Argh.

I still love him. I won't want to make it harder for him.

I got myself addicted to the most unlikely type of song I will ever listen to.

The lyrics? Hell you won't even want to know.

Damn it ><

Time Stands Still (At the Iron Hill)--Blind Guardian

Light fails at dawn
The moon is gone
And deadly the night reigns

Deceit

Finally I've found myself
In these lands
Horror and madness I've seen here
For what I became a king of the lost?
Barren and lifeless the land lies

bridge:
Lord of all Noldor
A star in the night
And a bearer of hope
He rides into his glorious battle alone
Farewell to the valiant warlord

chorus (repeat 2x):
The Fate of us all
Lies deep in the dark
When time stands still at the iron hill

I stand alone
Noone's by my side
I'll dare you
Come out
You coward
Now it's me or you

He gleams like a star
And the sound of his horn's
Like a raging storm
Proudly the high lord
Challenges the doom
Lord of slaves he cries

Slowly in fear
The dark lord appears
Welcome to my lands
You shall be damned

bridge

chorus

The iron crowned
Is getting closer
Swings his hammer
Down on him
Like a thunderstorm
He's crushing
Down the Noldor's
Proudest king

Under my foot
So hopeless it seems
You've troubled my day
Now feel the pain

bridge

chorus

The Elvenking's broken
He stumbles and falls
The most proud and most valiant
His spirit survives
Praise our king
Praise our king
Praise our king
Praise our king

They are everywhere.

1. (Ting)^2
2. 20^2 = 400th Post
3. 3^2 = 9 (030309, which happens to be today, in case you've forgotten)

So.

I am sorry, I have to quote this. I know I am supposed to do a clean cut, be completely gone away with this blog altogether, convince it that I don't love it anymore, but apparently. I still came back..

I am sorry.

Snuff--Slipknot
Bury all your secrets in my skin
Come away with innocence
And leave me with my sins
The air around me still feels like a cage
And love is just a camouflage
For what resembles rage again

So if you love me let me go
And run away before I know
My heart is just too dark to care
I cant destroy what isn't there
Deliver me into my fate
If I'm alone I cannot hate
I don't deserve to have you
My smile was taken long ago
If I can change I hope I never know

I still press your letters to my lips
And cherish them in parts of me that savor every kiss
I couldn't face a life without your light
But all of that was ripped apart...
When you refused to fight

So save your breath I will not hear
I think I made it very clear
You couldn't hate enough to love
Is that supposed to be enough?
I only wish you weren't my friend
Then I could hurt you in the end
I never claimed to be a Saint
My own was banished long ago
It took the death of hope to let you go

So break yourself against my stones
And spit your pity in my soul
You never needed any help
You sold me out to save yourself
And I wont listen to your shame
You ran away you're all the same
Angels lie to keep control
My love was punished long ago
If you still care, don't ever let me know

If you still care, don't ever let me know...

In summary, I got a 400GB HDD for $139 + 2GB free USB, Sennheiser Sport II 80 earphones for $59.90 + free MX 400, laptop bag for $28 + Bluetooth Earphones for $2.

Altogether, $219.90.

And I had $100 note + 3 $2 notes left over. =.=

Departure
Once again, let's skip the escalator parts. Except for the fact that the 3rd level (Sony @ Concourse) was very very very spammed.

Walk like siao, people jammed like siao, escalators pwned like siao. Reached Raffles Link.
The escalator goes down to city link. Queued for 5 minutes. After that:

-security guard with loudspeaker- "Everyone please clear off, people are coming up, there is a really big human jam downstairs, people are coming up, please clear off!" -siren-

O_O The person in front of me managed to get down. Pfft.

Wandered around, realised everywhere is jammed. Struggled around and back, found myself at Suntec city again. Saw a crowd of people asking the information counter for Marina Square about something, so I decided to try.

"Is there any other way for me to get to the MRT Station?"
"Oh the MRT Station is closed down already. You have to get out."
"Get out?"
"Yes it's closed down already. You have to get down. Just cross a junction."
"Oh so I cross a junction to get to the MRT Station?"
"No, it's closed down already. You just cross a junction."

...

Wanted to call my dad. Both Starhub public phones eat coins. The first one ate 20 cents + 50 cents, the second one ate someone else's 10 cents I picked up from the coin return box. Pfft.

No choice, queued up for taxi. I was wondering, will I be the first person to pay for taxi fares using $100 note?

Ends up, I waited for the taxi for 40 min, the taxi got me back to Chinatown Point in 5 min. It was nicely $6, which was what I had exactly other than the $100 note. Awesome.

Epilogue
Met with my dad, bought an ice mocha, got pwned due to caffeine intolerance, drank extremely expensive soda, washed car, laughed at person who sprayed water at our windscreen while asking us to proceed forward.

Today. Is. Win.

Sennheiser FTW!

After Linkin Park, the band which I declared as too awesome to behold since I-don't-know-when, the next band which I declare the status of awesome-ness will be Lacrimosa.

Kelch Der Liebe--Lacrimosa

[English translation:]

Chalice Of Love

My body dives into light
And my spirit swims behind
My heart is my compass
And love my horizon
Those words are like storms
Those glances like a rough sea
The waves engulf me often
But they never claim victory!

And who asks for me and who wants to hear me?
And who looks at me and who speaks to me?

And I - I do not want to live without an aim!
A life without love is not life!
I need no life!
I only need you!
Your body -
Your soul -
And your heart!

This one takes from my soul
That one eats from my spirit
Others drink from my love
And many achiev from my strength
I am human and I need love
But what remains is only longing
And these words that hurt me
But are not even meant for me

And who asks for me and who wants to hear me?
And who looks at me and who speaks to me?

And I - I do not want to live without an aim!
A life without love is not life!
I need no life!
I only need you!
Your body -
Your soul -
And your heart!
And whe the world is in flames
And the last of mankind has gone
Even if the sun is bursting
The light of love will remain with you

Take this chalice
With the life of a nameless clown
Of the one locked out - the one rejected
Of the shadowly creature of light
This in now the chalice
Filled with the love of a clown
Of the one locked out - the one rejected
Of the shadowly creature of love

Apparently, you are eating me up. Left to pick up all the pieces by myself. I will try. I don't know how much I can hold. I'm sorry.

No number of "argh"s can express how argh I feel right now.

Argh.

I still love him. I won't want to make it harder for him.

I got myself addicted to the most unlikely type of song I will ever listen to.

The lyrics? Hell you won't even want to know.

Damn it ><

Time Stands Still (At the Iron Hill)--Blind Guardian

Light fails at dawn
The moon is gone
And deadly the night reigns

Deceit

Finally I've found myself
In these lands
Horror and madness I've seen here
For what I became a king of the lost?
Barren and lifeless the land lies

bridge:
Lord of all Noldor
A star in the night
And a bearer of hope
He rides into his glorious battle alone
Farewell to the valiant warlord

chorus (repeat 2x):
The Fate of us all
Lies deep in the dark
When time stands still at the iron hill

I stand alone
Noone's by my side
I'll dare you
Come out
You coward
Now it's me or you

He gleams like a star
And the sound of his horn's
Like a raging storm
Proudly the high lord
Challenges the doom
Lord of slaves he cries

Slowly in fear
The dark lord appears
Welcome to my lands
You shall be damned

bridge

chorus

The iron crowned
Is getting closer
Swings his hammer
Down on him
Like a thunderstorm
He's crushing
Down the Noldor's
Proudest king

Under my foot
So hopeless it seems
You've troubled my day
Now feel the pain

bridge

chorus

The Elvenking's broken
He stumbles and falls
The most proud and most valiant
His spirit survives
Praise our king
Praise our king
Praise our king
Praise our king

They are everywhere.

So.

I am sorry, I have to quote this. I know I am supposed to do a clean cut, be completely gone away with this blog altogether, convince it that I don't love it anymore, but apparently. I still came back..

I am sorry.

Snuff--Slipknot
Bury all your secrets in my skin
Come away with innocence
And leave me with my sins
The air around me still feels like a cage
And love is just a camouflage
For what resembles rage again

So if you love me let me go
And run away before I know
My heart is just too dark to care
I cant destroy what isn't there
Deliver me into my fate
If I'm alone I cannot hate
I don't deserve to have you
My smile was taken long ago
If I can change I hope I never know

I still press your letters to my lips
And cherish them in parts of me that savor every kiss
I couldn't face a life without your light
But all of that was ripped apart...
When you refused to fight

So save your breath I will not hear
I think I made it very clear
You couldn't hate enough to love
Is that supposed to be enough?
I only wish you weren't my friend
Then I could hurt you in the end
I never claimed to be a Saint
My own was banished long ago
It took the death of hope to let you go

So break yourself against my stones
And spit your pity in my soul
You never needed any help
You sold me out to save yourself
And I wont listen to your shame
You ran away you're all the same
Angels lie to keep control
My love was punished long ago
If you still care, don't ever let me know

If you still care, don't ever let me know...
