Tori No Uta ( Air )

Song-Tori No Uta
Singer-Lia
Anime-Air

Lyrics-
kieru hikoukigumo bokutachi wa miokutta
mabushikute nigeta itsudatte yowakute
ano hi kara kawarazu
itsumademo kawarazu ni irarenakatta koto
kuyashikute yubi wo hanasu

We watched the fading vapor trails
They were so dazzling, I ran away- I was always weak
I let go, frustrated by the fact
That I couldn't stay unchanged since that day
Couldn't stay unchanged forever

ano tori wa mada umaku tobenai kedo
itsuka wa kaze wo kitte shiru
todokanai basho ga mada tooku ni aru
negai dake himete mitsumeteru

That bird still can't fly well
But someday she will know the feeling of cutting through the wind
The place she can't reach is still there in the distance
She gazes at it, keeping her wish to herself

kodomotachi wa natsu no senro aruku
fuku kaze ni suashi wo sarashite
tooku ni wa osanakatta hibi wo
ryoute ni wa tobidatsu kibou wo

Children walk along the summer railway tracks
Exposing their bare feet to the blowing wind
We place in the distance the days of our childhood
We place in our hands hope that springs forth

kieru hikoukigumo oikakete oikakete
kono oka wo koeta ano hi kara kawarazu itsumademo
massugu ni bokutachi wa aru youni
watatsumi no youna tsuyosa wo mamoreru yo kitto

Chasing, chasing the fading vapor trails
It hasn't changed since the day we crossed that hill, and never will
So that we will always have it,
We'll guard the strength of a sea god, surely

ano sora wo mawaru fuusha no hanetachi wa
itsumademo onaji yume miru
todokanai basho wo zutto mitsumeteru
negai wo himeta tori no yume wo

The blades of the windmill that turn in the sky
Always have the same dream
The dream of a bird, her wish kept to herself,
Gazing at the place she can't reach

furikaeru yaketa senro oou
nyuudougumo katachi wo kaetemo
bokura wa oboete ite douka
kisetsu ga nokoshita kinou wo

I look back: the sun-baked railway tracks are hidden
By stormclouds- even if they change their shape,
May we always remember
The yesterdays left behind by the seasons...

kieru hikoukigumo oikakete oikakete
hayasugiru aizu futari waraidashiteru itsumademo
massugu ni manazashi wa aru youni
ase ga nijindemo te wo hanasanai yo zutto

Chasing, chasing the fading vapor trails
The signal is given too early- we start laughing
So that we can always look straight ahead,
Even if it's slippery with sweat, I won't let go of your hand, ever

kieru hikoukigumo bokutachi wa miokutta
mabushikute nigeta itsudatte yowakute
ano hi kara kawarazu
itsumademo kawarazu ni irarenakatta koto
kuyashikute yubi wo hanasu

We watched the fading vapor trails
They were so dazzling, I ran away- I was always weak
I let go, frustrated by the fact
That I couldn't stay unchanged since that day
Couldn't stay unchanged forever

Just posting the lyrics for fun .. So that i know it's here for my perusal .. The anime itself is not realy that nice .. the only thing i like and that you won't like about it is ..

ITS PRACTICALLY BURSTING WITH MELANCHOLY AND SAD STUFF!!!!!

Which is something i do life .. lol ..

Unlike Kanon and Clannad , Air has sad ending .. Unlike Kanon and Clannad , it has only 13 episodes .. Unlike Kanon and Clannad , I don't like the storyline .. Unlike Kanon and Clannad , i dont have anything else to say ..

Why , though , you ask , am i only relating Air to Kanon and Clannad ?
That's because they are all produced under KEY .. lol ..

Emotions..

We go through our lives everyday . We see people walking , running , bustling through the busy places of the world . We see people getting caught up in the hype or tension that would sooner or later dispel . Dispel back to the originality that was ordinary life . This hype or tension as we call it comes with a certain feeling , an emotion .

What is an emotion ? What defines an emotion ?

An emotion is a mental and physiological state associated with a wide variety of feelings , thoughts and behavior . Every person has emotions . A person without emotion would be like a zombie . Oblivious to the surroundings . Having no care of the world that revolves around him .
We show our emotion when we cry , when we feel angry , when we feel happy , when we feel determined . We portray our emotions through our actions . Our facial expressions . Our desires .

It would probably be obvious that emotions play a very important role in our thinking . Our perception of matters . Simply put , emotions affect our conscience . Our conscience determines our actions . Our actions portray our desires . When you are angry , naturally , your impulse would be to despise the person or the subject that made you angry . It takes a great deal of discipline to control your feelings of anger and to think rationally . The same goes when you are happy . When you are happy , nothing can bring you down , no matter how drastic the matter .

Emotions .

Emotions are what makes us human . It shapes us , making us able to decipher the numerous factors in life . Picture a society that is devoid of any emotion . Life is an empty shell but you do not feel the vast emptiness inside you . One merely goes on with life with no feelings . A walking dead man . You can't feel sad , you can't feel anger , you can't feel happy , you can't feel the rush of adrenaline that's going through your very veins . You are , so to speak , dead . You neither care nor ignore the void . You just go on with life as though it is as common as breathing .

A good example would be the Clerics in the movie " Equilibrium " . A must watch for everyone who enjoys fighting and likes Matrix . The Clerics have no emotion when they fight . They regularly take drugs to suppress their emotion and in the end one of them finally feels his emotions . He feels pain , he feels sadness , he griefs , he is happy , he is angry . He is not an empty shell . What i want to imply is that , would life be nicer with emotions or without it ?

Of course , everyone wants emotions . Would the world be in a better position as it is without emotions ? Without emotions , there is no war . without emotions , there is no happiness . Would the price of no war be enough for relinquishing our grip on happiness ? I highly doubt it , but what do you think ?

Personally , for me , i have emotions . Of course i do . The only thing is , i'm hardly able to express the emotions in real life , preferring instead to write it down and later surrender it to the perusal of others . When it comes to death , people cry . They look sad . For me , a funeral is just a normal thing to me . I do not cry when a sad thing happens . I merely blink the tears away and assume a calm front . Why ? i do not have the slightest idea myself .

Emotions are a part of us humans . Controlling these emotions , however , is not part of a normal human .

-Kage Futatsu- [ Two Shadows ]

This is another Clannad song that's really cool .. There are two versions of this song .. one's the original and another is a Mintjam mix .. i can't upload the song here but here is link if u wanna here the song .. I can't find the remix .. but the electric guitar rift in the remix is cool ..

http://www.youtube.com/results?search_type=search_playlists&search_query=kage+futatsu+mix&uni=1

Now the lyrics ..

-Kage Futatsu- ( translation )
On that day of the beginning, I pretended to be strong
I stood on tiptoes for the childish meeting

We felt the same wind and laughed together
Ah, if I look back, there are the nostalgic days

The sound of your footsteps remains in my ears
No matter where your voice is, it’ll reach me, look

I’m not alone anymore, there are two shadows
I carefully embrace the tune that echoes high and far

I’ll change my nurtured thoughts into words
I’ll hold your warm hand endlessly
And keep passing
The time with you

You asked, “Where did you get to?”
If you ask, “Are you tired?” I’ll laugh and shake my head

Then we’ll walk again, with our shoulders aligned
That’s right, in front of our eyes, there’s a colorless earth

Interferers don’t exist anywhere
We’ll pick up our feet and advance forward, unhesitatingly

With my definite feelings, within the wind
I feel the shapeless you in my closed eyes

My unstopping thoughts leave behind footprints
Now, our tracks are born here

I’ll change my nurtured thoughts into words
Hold your warm hand forever
And keep talking about
The future with you

Ano hajimari no hi tsuyogatteta
Osanai deai ni senobi o shite ita

Onaji kaze o uke waraiatta
Aa, furikaereba natsukashii hibi

Sono ashioto ga mimi ni nokoru
Kimi no koe wa doko ni ite mo todoku hora

Mou hitori ja nai kage futatsu
Takaku tooku hibiku shirabe daiji ni daite

Hagukunda omoi o kotoba ni kaeyou
Doko made mo atataka na te wo tsunaide
Kimi to no jikan
Kizamitsuzukeru

Doko made kita ka to kimi wa kiita
Tsukareta? to kikeba warai kubi o furu

Soshite mata aruku kata o narabe
Sou, me no mae ni wa ironaki daichi

Jamasuru mono wa doko ni mo nai
Ashi o soroe mae e susumu mayowazu ni

Tashika na kimochi kaze no naka
Tojita hitomi ni katachinaki kimi o kanjite

Tomaranai omoi ga ashiato nokoshi
Ima, koko ni futari no kiseki umareru

Hagukunda omoi o kotoba ni kaete
Itsu made mo atataka na te o tsunaide
Kimi to no mirai

The Holidays ; how it's been like ..

To an extent , the holidays this time are like the calm before the storm .. the ultimate storm.. We Form 5's are using the holidays to do some serious studying ..

Or are we ?

Not me , that's for sure .. I came down with flu two days ago and only just recovered .. before that my left arm was facing a weakness .. i can't lift it of hold anything .. fortunately , it didn't last long ..

I'm trying to concentrate on my studies but i can't help but think about other things .. things of no relation whatsoever to the SPM but more on the later life ..

I will seriously try studying tomorrow .. today , my minds somewhere else .. i will rest today and tomorrow .. but we can't determine the future , can we ?

I realise that i have used this blog as a medium to vent my frustration or otherwise express my sadness .. most of the posts here are about my miserable life .. perhaps even more into depth about them .. but most of all , i treat this as my sanctuary of thoughts .. where i throw my feelings here and put out a false front outside .. after all , life is about being cheerful outside , is it not?

I do not own the world , i only live according to the rules that are made by the world ..
No matter how much we strive , it all comes back to following the rules made by the world ..
Whether you like it or not ,your life depends on the choices you have made ..
Whether you enjoy it or not , your life depends on the paths that you take ..

Bla .. bla .. i being melancholy again ..

Until then .

Trial exam update

Today's papers were okay..

Chemistry 3's experiment was leaked .. i give you that .. But , i still had to think for some time ..
Physics 3 was the tough one ..
The experiment was heat capacity and frequency of sound ..

I chose heat capacity but even doing that got me in a headache ..

Tomorrow is Maths 1 and 2 .. Gonna aim for 98 .. i know i can't get full marks .. since i'm not really gonna study for it .. lol .. more concerned for Physics 1 and 2 on Thursday .. lol ..

Lol..

Tomorrow is Paper 3 for Chemistry and Physics .. Not worried of physics .. worried of chemistry ..

Eff...

Cuttin' some slack

Well , its very unheard of .. especially if you happen to understand who i am .. but .. I haven't been studying this whole Saturday and Friday .. I am , to use the term ...

CUTTIN' SOME SLACK ..

Sue me ..

:D

I think i might just happened to be influenced by Shawn's freaky anime-watching these two days ... I watched Spice&Wolf and am now in the process of finishing My-Hime ..

Dear me ..

Its Add Maths on Monday .. and i plan to try and get full marks this time around .. The Science Paper 3's are also incoming as well as Physics ..

Stress ..

Lol..

Still , i'm relaxing for these two days before going back to my serious mode .. A person needs to slack sometimes :P ..

I'm going for the Prom Night thingy .. hopefully it will be nice .. wouldn't wanna waste my RM60 .. sitting in the same table as Dhaneesh , Tze Quan , Double A and Audrey .. the rest .. well .. i'm an outsider .. sue me ..

At times like this , my senses are going awry and i can't seem to concentrate much .. Losing my grip on reality .. yea , that's probably why ..

The missing piece ..

I was looking through all my certificates today just for the fun of it .. ( I got 48 official ones since i was in school .. 2 short of my target ) and i glanced through some of my old school pictures when i was in kindergarten and in primary school ...

I realized i was such a freeloading , carefree guy before i reached Form 2..

In other words , i was rather immature during my younger days ..

I think that if someone were to yell at me that the world is about to end back then , i would have laughed it off.. and died with a smile on my face , without a care of the world ..

How things have truly changed ..

As i stepped in the realm of Form 2 , i met new friends .. i hung out with about almost everyone .. good people .. bad influences .. i even got myself a warning letter ..

Hard to believe right ? Since most people look at me as a study freak ..

Eversince then , i loosened up a little .. Going around the place .. slacking ..
Doing things i won't have done before ..

I have changed ..

Changed to know that the world changes too ..

But not changed enough to know when i have to fall .. and when i would have to get back up ..

Maybe someday ..

I will know .. i will understand ..

One day ...

That's a promise ..

Here it comes ..

Tuesday ..

My Gerak Gempur starts ..

To be honest , i'm rather unprepared this time around .. Lapsing too much .. Let's hope it doesn't end in a disaster ..

Don't get me wrong !!

I did study alot .. but , i'm also using the computer abit more than necessary ..

LOL ..

Sue me ..

Here's a nice song that i can suggest for those who need a song to relax while studying ..

" Last Regrets " by Ayana ..

Very nice song ..

Back Where I Started

I'm back ..

I'm back to do what i'm supposed to do ..

I've returned to try and get what i want to get ..

I want to make my dreams come through ..

To do that ..

I gotta be strong ..

When i'm down , i have to go on ..

I won't stop ..

I won't crumble ..

I will move on ..

CCW

Fiasco

Is it a fiasco to have your hair cut the way you want it to be ?

According to my mum , my hair looks like a red indian sakai ..

What's that ?
lol ...

Yesterday , i covered up Chemistry for 9 hours before doing add maths for an hour ..
Today , i'm doing Bio ..

While watching Kanon ..
lol ..

I gotta change ..

As the title goes ..

I gotta change the way i handle stuff .. It's a simple weakness of mine .. i tend to totally focus on one thing and forget the hundred other things ..

Which is what happened to me in my recently concluded trials ..
Here are my results so far ..
1. BI- 78
2. Add Maths -92
3. Maths -94
4. Biology - 74 [ =.= ]
5. Chemistry - 63 [ :( ]
6. Physics - 79 [ :D ]
7. EST - 91
8. Sejarah - 80
9. Moral - 80
10 . Accounts - 83

So far , 8A1's , 1A2 and 1 B4 ...

B4..

ARGH!!!!!!

I guess i paid too much attention to Physics and History and totally missed out Chemistry and Biology . haihz ...

Out there , there are probably alot of people who can juggle everything equally , but for me .. i guess i have to work doubly hard to get even ..

I hope i get an A1 for BM .. one of my classmate's marks were so shocking i am starting to think mine's gonna be worse ..

I gotta change ..

Now , i'm studying Chemistry .. maybe tomorrow , i can finish the whole thing and start on other stuff .. Gerak Gempur starts next Tuesday and i think i wouldn't be ready this time ..

Ah well ..

' What changes , changes in time .. But what never changes , remains hidden between the lines .. '

Small update

This , as the title proclaims , is a small update about school ..

Got back more results today .. i'm sorry to all those out there who thought i was a jerk ..
i realised i have been looking depressed even with good marks from my trials ..
What i really felt was that i was sad i had missed my goal .. but happy at the same time that i was improving .. I just couldn't get the thought of flunking Chemistry off my mind ..

What Carmen and Alex said was probably right .. I shouldn't stress my self too much ..

On a happier note ,

This ' Thank You ' goes out to Alexander Lim who gave me the songs which enabled me to obtain very excellent marks in Add Maths , namely
1. Lucille [ BB King ]
2. 171 Clannad songs

I listened to those songs when i do practise my Add Maths and they are truly helpful ..
Check it , here are the marks that i got so far ..

1. Add Maths - 92 [ i know i should feel happy .. was just feeling abit angry that i messed up the cosine formula ]
2. Mathematics - 94 [ expected ]
3. EST - 91 [ totally unexpected . am happy with it .. Ram had 96 =.=.. crazy ..]
4. English - 78 [ I was anticipating this .. coz i hadn't enough time to write my story properly ]
5. Physics - 79 [ as i said before , missed my mark by one ]

Overall , i'm contented .. Currently in 3rd or 4th place in class .. need to know Keat Ping's marks to confirm my current standings...

I expect my Chemistry to pull me down but i guess my BM will pull me right back up ..

i hope .

Now , let me go along and enjoy my Wednesday !

lol

BTW , i'm changing my story a bit and i haven't had the mood to complete it .. so .. might have to postpone posting it ..

Start Of The Serious Stuff

Three more months ..

Just three more months and SPM will be at hand ..

Am i ready ?

Am i prepared ?

Can i handle the tension ? The exam ?

That depends on these three months ..

Whether or not i can prove that i can handle any question , it all comes down to these three months ..

The first trials has just ended before the one week holidays ..
I got back my full Physics marks , as well as a few other papers ...

1. Physics - 79 ( one mark of my target =.= )
2. BM paper 2 ( 92/110 [ so far , i know i'm highest in class for now ] )
3. Chemistry paper 1 ( 43/50 [ very badly done .. since i know i lost like 12 marks in my overall paper due to wrong experiment in paper 3 and miscalculations in paper 2] )
4. Add Maths paper 1 ( 72/80 [ okla but compared with Ram who got 79/80 ..] )

So far , so good la..
I hope i can do well in my Gerak Gempur next week ..

I'm using the comp now as i'm feeling drowsy this afternoon .. only studying at night today .. can't concentrate ..

Was reading a book titled " 1984 " by George Orwell .. interesting book .. again my appreciation to Shawn for lending it to me ..

Might be able to finish the story today .. will post it up ASAP .. lol ..
