Behind the Song #1

I've thought about it, and I have decided that I will make a post explaining the meanings behind the songs I like. I plan to do this at least once a month which means that you're guaranteed one awesome behind the song once a month so look forward to it.

First of all, let's label the type of song this is. The title of the song is The Promised Love and the song is downbeat with a sad loving tone from Jay Chou's voice. With this I'm going to label this as a sad love song. If you truly listen to the song and understand it, you will be able to feel what Jay Chou is trying to say in his song.
Now, I will try to explain the song in how I see it. There's a man and woman that are together and promise each other that they will love each other until the very end. (There's no evidence from the lyrics that they are married or not but it's possible and that's up to how you see it.) This is before the song actually happens. The song is the man asking the woman what happen to the love that they promised to each other.
The song starts with him talking about how she was slowly drifting away and not replying to him.He talks about a white dove that lost its sweetness. When he says this, I believe he's using the dove as a symbol of love which represented the woman. So what happened to the promised love?

6/27 Singapore day trip

I had to go to Singapore to renew my visitors days for Malaysia. I actually got to hang out with some online friends. This is the second time in my life where I met online people. I only got to be in Singapore for around six hours so we decided that we would just do a food run. I arrived in Singapore around 9am. My friend, Jelly, met me at the airport and then we had breakfast at Saffron where we met two other friends. Breakfast was basically paratha. After that, we took a Grabcar to Orchard Central and ate at Tanuki Raw. We ordered and shared the salmon kaisen and the foie grass truffle yakiniku. The food there was really nice and I would definitely go back again. When we finished eating there, we took the MRT and went to eat at Standing Sushi Bar. We ordered and shared two rolls that were also really good; one of the rolls was a bit spicy. It reminded me of the volcano roll I had in California at Taiko Sushi. Lastly, we had dessert at Matchaya. I ordered a cup of hokkaido milk ice cream. It was nice, creamy and tasty. All in all, it was a great, fun day. I will definitely remember this day. Thanks to Jelly and Ginger for taking their time to spend the day with me and below is a picture of the three of us.

烈火如歌

Yesterday, I finished watching The Flame's Daughter (烈火如歌). It was recommended by a friend and now I want to recommend it to others. It's a really interesting historical drama that has good character and plot development. The drama makes me want to be like one of the main characters, Yin Xue. You will know why if you watch the drama so watch it! That's all for this post. Until next time!

My Crush is a Goddess

I wrote this a while back. I'm sure everyone has had a crush before. It's been a long time since I wrote something decent. Feels Good.

My Crush is a Goddess

I really wonder why
I keep thinking of her
I see her here, there and everywhere
I don't even really know her
I think I've really lost it

All I know is that
She has long beautiful hair
She has a nice, sweet smile
She seems kind-hearted
Little does she know my heart skips a beat when I see her

I hide away ensuring our eyes do not meet
I only fear I would blush and give it all away
Her beauty is that of the heavens
You could say that she fell from the sky
She's a goddess

I've been told to go for her
I've put a lot of thought into it
I just don't have the confidence to win her heart
Maybe I'm just scared of being rejected
She's far out of my league

I know I'm not worthy
Yet I still foolishly hope
That there could be a chance
That something could happen
That maybe she could be the One
