The Best

Girls...

... probably the most fascinating species.

Mentally & spiritually, they can be the most complex mathematical paradox to be solved yet.

Yet they are so unique, you would not want to explore them.
Because they are always full of surprises. Sometimes, more surprising than the previous ones.

All the things they have done since history: Motherhood, sacrifices and love, is far more important than stupid sciences ever invented. They are the ones who added colour to this world. Men merely sketched it.

Females are often victimised. People branded them as weak, unintelligent, usable, witch, gullible Eve.
I could not understand this statement.
Because every weep they shed, they shed their colour. Each new skin more vibrant, more hue than the previous one.
And if they continue to shed, they will emerge as more powerful, independent and reliable.


And all they've done, is always beautiful.
In this liberal era, one of the best event to witness, is the rise of the female. And I'm glad that I can witness it.

Raise a glass for all the great mothers, sisters, lovers and friends in this world ^^

Prelude To A Kiss

音乐～
不仅推动生命...

今天上了Youtube点击当时 MTV Hope For Haiti Now 慈善演唱／众星募捐活动的录影，听了我最爱的洋星 Alicia Keys、 Shakira 等的演出。平时听过一些歌曲挺少感受到任何心灵动摇。

一首要算得上是好歌的，不仅是要让人听得自在，而且须让听者感受到那神情的 emotion，raw的。不是那种现在的普通歌手把声线刻意拉长、深沉化、鼻音化去，而必把自己的独特歌唱、飙音法，再加自己的元素，把自己心灵给驻入进去，加上深义的个词，到时是眼泪、笑容、冤恨都能让听者不自禁泄出。



听了 "Prelude To A Kiss"，
一股热血涌了心上。歌手唱得没错：

Sometimes I feel so heavy hearted... but I can't explain cuz I'm so guarded
每个人都有难言处，大事除去了一些芝麻事还是会缠上来，心头的结石不是都能解下的

But that's a lonely road to travel
身边的亲友都有自己的生活，他们会离开－依赖是暂时的。
and a heavy load to bear

And it's a long, long way to heaven... but I gotta get there...
顽强的意志会继续推动你...但在这长途－

Can you send an angel.....?
我们总会需要一些依靠，放慢脚步，接着扶手攀延，接受指导
Can you send me an angel...... to guide me


我曾读过：
命运里有个蜗牛会走在你面前，你不能越过它。
一天，由于长时累积的繁琐。你会踢它、催它走快点。
它还是会一样走得很慢。
但，如果你也放慢脚步－你会看见你身旁的不再是钢骨森林，而是一个世外幽谷。


我也该放慢脚步了，仔细观察身边的景物；不是评论它是否一首好歌，反而聆听生命的佳曲。
音乐，是不呼吸的生命、是精神的水源。

40

This is my 40th post.

I do not know why 40 sounds precious to me, but I seem to be attracted by its meaning, figure out yourself.

I never realise I enjoy blogging so much. I 'became' a music critic, movie reviewer, traveller, and an emotional writer. So many things I wish to share and there are also a few things I regretted sharing (I do not know that many people can actually know this place and access it).

But every joy of sharing is my push to be a better person; and every mistake I made will be another push for my adulthood.

Thanks to all my blogger friends/friends for the encouragements and care, I appreciate them :)

May everyone be well.

面具

人其实没改变，我们只不过连续地换上不同的面具罢了。
有些华丽可人；一些无情狰狞。

Worst Saturday

Those who live in the past can not move on.

Those who are consumed by anger will only crumble.

There is no point lingering back.

西北西北忙

最近会很西北西北忙 T.T ...

第一，一生中第一次做副班长...lame下...所以又要做回奶爸了...

过后，也是一生中第一次参加运动会，而且是800＆400竞跑... 很久没跑步了，听说stamina不够好和忍受不了热会晕（当场晕＠.＠），真的发生在我身上就西北下衰，可以去死算了。

考试... 哇劳，不用讲咯全部及格就是真的有神明了。

English Nite... 也是第一次没错的话，买票吧哈哈... 如果你要看我跳舞的话 XD 我和几位朋友在为班上的表演（话剧）操刀剧本，还蛮搞笑的。但老师既然把我们中六的表演都弄成比赛，就不方便透露更多了...

哦给，要做功课了 BB ^^

Lose Yourself

我失控了...今早终于爆发了!
还挺舒服的...
后天开始又会是个忙碌的一周...
加把劲吧！

Prospekt March

开学两个星期了，但每天都迫不及待地等待着周末来临哈哈...

大家开学后的生涯都过得充实吗＾＾？

忽然想起了今年将是我最后 一年的中学生涯，还有点不舍，降快就有这感觉了。中六还蛮enjoy的，辛苦倒辛苦，但累积起来的全新体验的确获益不浅。我不想浪费这即将结束的一字辈生活，虽然苦辣多于甜，其实也都是再帮我铺个前路...

我小学生涯并不怎么快乐，常被羞辱欺负。小时也傻里傻气的不会还架什么的，就是那种阿呆瓜给人玩的。说实在的，我也挺是怪罪我身旁的长辈没什么教导我该如何处人处事，只会把令伯关在房里咬书嚼字，每天书、书、书、书、书、书、书的，我几乎没有生活。没了大人和模范的指引教导，我越走就越迷失、困扰、越疑惑... 讲真的不能怪他们因为那时我真的也是西北傻一下的咯...

到了中学就bright一点了，有了个模糊的方向。但由于自幼鲜少与人沟通和了解世务，我和别人产生了不少摩擦、误会。人气直滑T_T...那时也是很多约束，这个不敢、那个迟疑，很noob下的哈哈...

但中三开始就有很大气色，过后也蛮enjoy...
中六呢辛苦归辛苦，但所看过、体验的让我更充实，自由里也有限制，欢笑中亦有苦处。

Hmm... 在这想告诉小我一辈的朋友们多把握你们这短暂的青春，关爱亲友。对有兴趣的就去闯闯吧；看开点（这点我对一些人还存有芥蒂无法做到哈哈）；表太叛逆...

这是我最后的中学生涯... 希望它不是完美的句号，但会是个漂亮的豆号。

谢谢你朋友们 :)

2010... 这就是Prospekt March... 自历史，向未来看齐。

Music Review 02

Year of the Monster
So 2009 was Gaga's year, ignore Beyonce for her 10 nominations, if B wins more than G; Grammy is history.
The Fame has capture our hearts without us noticing. Suddenly underground friend of mine even go 'Muh-muh-muh-muh~'. And the freaky, alien couture/costumes wore by Gaga which is like for a freak show looks OK; what was considered freakish dress & behaviour became a norm for music lover. A much more contemporary and smarter Madonna rises. So yes I'm biased towards her, because I do not see other much more captivating and talented new artiste out there. But does Monster score this time? I HOPE so.
This album is short for roughly 32 minutes, and this may be the disadvantage Gaga will face this year.
Expect a less contemporary feel to this album. There are loads of late 80's + 90's pop beats in it packed with loads of bizarre lyrics [He ate my heart then he ate my brain...]. Unlike other pop stars, you might need a thinking cap on to know what she's singing about, as this is her strongest link: procuring smart lyrics.
I'm also shocked, very shocked to found out Gaga's softer, vulnerable point here, which can be her weakest link. We get used to her being a rather eccentric feminist- wild and flamboyant who constantly explore art unorthodoxly, that we forgotten that she is much a human like we do, so that when you listen to Telephone carefully, a duet with Beyonce, you'll see a real woman instead of a woman with a multiple mask (poker face) on.
Yet with her (is this her first?) ballad Speechless, we get to know her more personally: emotional yet bold; you will love her more. Monster is quite different from Fame. And I believe with her presence, pop in the future may gain much more respect. Kudos for a wonderful woman who redefines and reinvents.

Be Open & Patience for Freedom

We knew Keys for mostly her soft ballads and some memorable uptempos. That is when her music style is still much rooted to R&B with heavy piano use, smooth soul and with vulnerable, yearning words that praises love as well as the sorrow love has caused.

In this album, I'm surprised by Keys' musical transition towards a favour for more hip-hop beats (neo-soul), added with much more of a sunny feel to it compared to her previous albums, which has this feeling of late night jazz/soul club.

Well this is not a bad thing at all because one can't help to compare Freedom to As I Am; while Keys only just realeased AIA slightly more than two years ago, one would expect a longer hiatus from an artiste to search for a new musical direction. AIA was not that bad, only thing is that it goes down and down towards the end of the album while only the first half of the album is more notable. So, AIA comes up more as a nap time option.

If you are familiar to urban music espcially soul ones, you will enjoy it. Freedom was quite sunny despite the amount of downtempo songs is more than that of up- and midtempos. You'll get more hip-hop beats (Unthinkable (I'm Ready)) packed with helps from vintage keyboards.

According to Keys, this album is about overcoming depression. I do not agree 100% but I do appreciate its effort.

Despite great music numbers, the lyrics fulled with metaphores can be a cliche, and may sound a little bland [...I'm gonna make it without you/Say you love me and put it in a love song...] at times; however some lyrics can be catchy, piercing and memorable [This king-size sheets need more than just a queen]. Its weakest link still lies on the songs arrangements, a reocurring mistake from AIA; as well as some of the beats of certain songs seem to repeat itself in other track like Doesn't Mean Anything with Through It All.

Still, this album leaves me with good impression: it may not be the finest, strongest work from Keys, but music lover shall love this new direction. All you need is to be open for the music to flow in and have the patience to have it crawl into your heart
