Was introduced to this song back in my Uni days, when J-drama and J-pop is the trend.
This song was made popular by a Japanese Drama titled Love Generation.
Hear Me Cry is the main song in the drama.
And I am pretty sure for most role-playingvideo gamers who is an avid Final Fantasy fans would recognize this song in Final Fantasy X.
Despite is sounding raw and consistently low key, the song manage to make the heart shed a tear 😢.
Which is why to date, I still don’t have the courage to watch the drama itself.
Premonition.. most of the time, I wish I have the ability to tell.
At some point, I try very hard to avoid, to disregard, to ignore.
At some point it was a gift, or perhaps it was a curse.
I wish there was a choice, or an option.
I hope I will stand strong or at least stand still.
I wish I can keep calm and carry on..
But sometimes, I wish I could just sleep and dream for a bit.
Just a little, because that’s just what I need.
A little dream to make me feel a little more humane.
Yes, just a little dream will do.
I recently had this confusing conversation with a friend.
Which to date, I still can’t seems to understand what we just talked about:
Potato: What to do on a Sunday noon?
Me: Go paktor lor!
Potato: Yeah, doing that now. But what else can do cause it’s so boring.
Potato: Need suggestion aside movies, shopping, café. What else?
Potato: Is it normal to just shop, movies, café and chit chat? Seems like monotonous one.
Me: Life is like that lor. Eat, shit and sleep. You also monotone for so many years.
Potato: Want to do some activities mah. Like jungle tracking.
Me: Then go cycle at park, catch butterfly with net or picnic.
Potato: Cycling so hot la. I want something that is not too hot and burnt under the sun.
Me: You want activity but give excuses. Hot la, this la and that la.
Me: Then go see museum, science centre or art gallery.
Potato: You think here is Paris or Rome or Europe? Museum here sucks big time.
Me: Seriously, monotone is your choice.
*puke blood* Sometimes, I can only blame myself for allowing this kind of conversation to take place.
If we look at things in a broader picture, life has always been monotone since we are born, no?
I mean seriously, monotone life? Life is monotone, if you allow it to be like that.
It’s the small details in life that makes everything more interesting.
Someone once told me – make time, make an effort and everything will turn out differently.
Now, back to my monotone life! Zzzz…
Sometimes there are many things that words really cannot explain.
Some actions we cannot describe.
Some words are unspeakable.
Yet we all still always ask, and hope to get an answer.
明明就 不習慣牽手, 為何卻主動把手勾?
I have finally came back from my first and probably the last holiday for the year.
Sad 😭 but true. I’m too broke 💸 to plan for another trip.
This was mainly due to my crazy shopping spree when in Hong Kong. Hong Kong is a shopping heaven!
And food heaven too.
Everyone I knew said I gained a lot of weight and have a rounder face now.
But guess what, of all the food I still crave for the Portuguese egg tarts now!
And I’ve only been away for a week only. I can’t imagine when I take a longer holiday.
Time to plan for the next return trip to Hong Kong and Macau to continue my food exploration!
