More eyebrow stories

[karened]

I was driving to school this morning and heard this song on my cd player. I think its lyrics bear the answer to dear matsuzy's question. Being a Cantonese, I enjoy HK music, but this cd from Alex Fong (National swimmer turned singer/actor) is one of those I really love. The melody from the songs in this album are really soothing while the lyrics are easy to identify with.

12. 好好戀愛
12. Have a good relationship

共你相識三千天　我沒名無姓
慶幸也與你逛過　那一段旅程
曾是日夜期待你　施捨一點同情
這算是固執　做夢或太熱情？
I've known you for 3 thousand days, I have no name.
I'm glad to have walked this journey with you.
I used to wait day and night for you to spare me a little sympathy.
Is this stubbornness, unrealistic or being too passionate?

＊在世上　沒有多少東西
　會盡如人意　多數像諷刺
　逐年成長　必經苦戀故事
　我愛你　你扮作不知
＊There aren't many things on earth
    That will go according to wishes, most are ironic.
    Growing up each year, we have to experience painful love.
    I love you, you pretend not to know.

＃完了吧　如無意外
　重今開始　該好好戀愛
　放下從前一段感情　才能追求將來
　你就似沒存在
＃Let it end, if there're no hiccups.
   I should have a good relationship from now.
   Only by putting down the feelings from before can I chase after the future.
   It's as if you don't exist.

　完了吧　仍能撐起來
　前進便讓自尊心放開
　告別從前總是不易　然而假如只得我在
　這不是場定成敗的比賽
　(也不願盲目留在這愛海)＃
   Let it end, I can still bear with it.
   Advance forward and let free my pride.
   It's always not easy to bid the past goodbye, but if there's only me there,
   This isn't a competition to determine success or failure.
   (Don't wish to remain in the sea of love aimlessly)＃

舊訊息應該刪走　再沒留憑證
我共你去到最遠　也只是友情
如現實是場玩笑　一早清楚內情
過去是勇敢　或是未肯適應？
The old messages should be deleted, not leaving any evidence.
The futherest I can go with you is only friendship.
Like reality is a joke, I knew the truth long ago.
Was the past bravery or an unwillingness to adapt?

REPEAT＊＃
REPEAT＊＃

我與你　就算始終不能相愛
這一種情份　可一也都可再
我用心戀愛　下段道路定更精彩
Even if there's no love between you and I,
If this kind of feeling can develop once, it can develop again.
I'll work hard to love. The next stretch of road will surely be more exciting. 

完了吧　如無意外
曾失戀的都必須戀愛
放下從前一段感情　才能追求將來
你就似沒存在
完了吧　仍能撐起來
前進便讓自尊心放開
告別從前總是不易　然而怎能只得我在
愛不是場定成敗的比賽

Let is end, if there're no hiccups.
All who once fell out of love have to love again.
Only by putting down the feelings from before can I chase after the future.
It's as if you don't exist.
Let it end, I can still bear with it.
Advance forward and let free my pride.
It's always not easy to bid the past goodbye, but if there's only me there,
This isn't a competition to determine success or failure.

On a side note, I had Audit class this morning, and of the scribblings me and my tutorial buddy did, this one is quite interesting.


 

I have no idea what happened to her but she suddenly wrote this on the rough paper on the table. Without me prompting or baiting or anything yo! Remember the eyebrow introduction I wrote about a few days ago?

aiba - smart
Nino - Favboy
jun   - ym's bf
sho  - brown eyebrows
xx    - girl eyebrows

I was so tickled! So I told her that the first and the last 2 were wrong. And I gave her a hangman setup for Ohno's name. She was so lousy! I had to give her _h_ _, _h_o, _hno before she managed to get it. And then she told her boyfriend really randomly, "Hey do you want to be called Ohno? No, you choose. Ohno or Nino." LOLLL...
Then she continued to try correct her mistakes and add on more info I told her about.

aiba sho   - smart thin eyebrow? - most talented.
Nino         - Favboy. AA @ concert Cute
jun           - ym's bf. Cu AA @ concert
sho aiba   - brown eyebrows (ugly, don't like)
xx ohno    - girl eyebrows (ok, not bad) -----------> Father politician?

I told her Ohno and Sho's lines were mixed up in terms of name, and finally she got them all right. LOL...I'm surprised she remembers. Because she's just not the type.
How can I get her to see that Aiba is cuticle!?!?!
Btw, we have this stimulation game for one of our subjects, and the slogan for our imanginary company is...one of these:

1. Big Danger, very cuticle!
2. Meccha Big Danger!
3. We like birds.

Guess?

:) i love the lyrics yo.. i think it kind of fits how im feeling right now too. :) maybe your tutorial buddy's starting to REALLY like them ne. i mean she wouldn't remember such info and even talk to you about it if she doesn't.. XD make her an arashi fan too~ XDD

im guessing that its Meccha Big Danger!....? what's your imaginary company gonna be about anyway? :D

Nah, she's never gonna become a big fan...coz she doesn't like things that she don't understand. That's why I've only been letting her listen to fast Arashi songs, coz the quick and catchy tunes make up for the ??? she gets regarding lyrics ne! But...I was so happy that she said she's gonna marry Nino, just for fun. LOL....She was going all over about how cute he was when I played the TIME concert during our project meeting. XD
Oh, the company...is crap. Each project group has to set up a fake, cyber company where we compete against each other on a fake cyber market. We can choose what to sell, the pricing, promotion, Research etc etc, and the winner's the one who gets most profits and highest share price.

Hehe. I'm glad someone new is starting to like/appreciate Arashi. Just like my 2 sisters =) Haha. By the way, I just kinda found out that you're putting the Arashi goodie bags up for the Haiti donation cause. Is there any way I can donate and buy the goodie bags even if I don't have a paypal account?

karened replied to aly2’s comment:

Haha! You found me over there? I'm not very sure about other means to donate, but if you want, I can do the transfer on your behalf using my paypal account. But the unofficial merchandises come from my friend/partner, so I've gotta ask her if she has any left.
