To: Gong-gong

Firstly, I was shocked when I heard that you had passed away last night.

I know that I haven't gone back for three years, and I'm sorry that I hadn't been there even then.

I feel sorry for your/my relatives who must be feeling sad back home, but I don't feel sorry for you, as I know that you must be in some nicer place now.

I have to say that I am sorry, though, as I don't feel as sad as I should have. In fact, it kinda scares me how little sadness I feel, but I guess that maybe, it's partly because I have been away for so long.

I remember you as a man who always wear white sleeveless tops and short pants in the house. You'd sit in front of the TV or sleep during the days as you had nothing to do after you stopped helping out in the shop. You'd take a walk in the afternoons and go to the church during weekends. You'd walk slowly but surely; and the young me had always wondered why you had to walk that slowly. Was it because your legs didn't have as much strength as they used to? Was it because your vision wasn't as good as before? Or was it just the way it is as you got older? But anyway. I remember you for your smile, and when you smiled you'd make a 'heh-heh' sound. I remember that you ate messily, and you'd sit in a weird position in front of the dining table. You struck me as a friendly man and I almost never saw you lose your temper before. But honestly, there isn't much left for me to say.

I'm sorry I can't be there to attend your funeral, no matter how much I want to. It's so unfortunate that my Chinese exam happens to be on next next Monday, and after that I have SPA until that Saturday. There'll be lessons the week after, and I don't know whether I should attend them or not, but I promise that I'll go back as soon as I can.

Well, lastly, rest in peace. =)

Japan craze!

Well, to be honest, actually the main reason of me setting up a blog is just for entertainment purposes. As in, it's for me to post lyrics, dramas, pictures, etc. I won't be posting too many 'personal' stuff, so rest assured, you won't be reading any depressing posts. Ignore the first post, it was totally unplanned. =D

Enough about that. Anyway, recently I've been into Japanese dramas. The most recent one I watched is Great Teacher Onizuka; GTO. I watched it because Oguri Shun acted as one of the kids in it, actually. However from the first episode, I started to like this series. It's a very old one, from 1998. But it's really funny and touching at some parts too. Seriously, you just have to watch it. It's simply of the best yet. ;) Here's the baka Onizuka:









I don't know what his real name is but LOL he looks super funny. xD

Next! Of course, I won't forget to mention Hana Yori Dango. Thanks a lot for the dearest PeiRong who introduced me to this drama (don't say I nvr thank you hor =P). It's the Jap version of Meteor Garden, and I must say that it's much better than its predecessor.

Random; Did I tell you that I really like Hanazawa Rui (cast Oguri Shun)? xD










Acting as the bullied Noboru in GTO. He was only 16 then okay!

and then....


















transformation complete! Rui in HYD, 8 years later.
