I just read a lovely story online (link) about a girl’s spirit accidentally trapped inside a cat. No, it is not some great classic, and yes it is a story for teenagers and I think it is written by some teenage girl. Anyways, I think this story is really cute, and I’d like to translate the story into English so the non-Chinese speakers can enjoy it with me. Sadly I cannot find the real writer of this story because people who posted the story didn’t give a proper citation!

The 2 leading characters of the story:

cat

Angel

The cat is not really a cat but an university girl whose spirit is trapped in a cat.

The angel is not really an angel but an university boy who is as noble as an angel.

Prince of persia = Prince of Gymnastics (LOL)

I am a fan of the original Prince of Persia game in the 1980s. In the first game, the prince was actually a foreign traveler who fell in love with the princess. He earned his prince title because of his bravery (and of course he married the princess).

The prince’s image in the new Prince of Persia games and the new movie (which is based on the new game series)  is not much of a prince. I don’t understand why he has to dress like a pauper. I am not saying that he should dress like a Christmas tree, but he should really get rid of those shreds and get a real shirt!

Recently me and my friend V are very into a Korean reality show We got Married (우리 결혼했어요). The producers paired up the celebrities and formed made-to-believe couples. We both particularly like the Crown J / Seo In Young (서인영) couple AKA the Ant couple of the first season (2008-2009). CJ is a Korean-American rapper and In Young  is a sexy pop singer. The two didn’t appear to get along and argued a lot during the show, but they were made to each other. When In Young was on her famous temper, Crown J knew exactly how to calm her; when Crown J was annoyed by In Young, she would act in a pettishly charming manner that no one (esp the soft-hearted rapper) could refuse.

The Ant Couple was a big sensation in and out of Korea. Crown J’s inverted upside down “peace” sign and his exclamation of “A!” became a popular phrase. Everyone from children to middle-age women all knew how to “A!”.

Both CJ and In Young are talented singers and have a good sense of fashion. Their obsession with fashion is another highlight of the show, while In Young is crazy about shoes and CJ is mad about jewelry. They also have wonderful shapes. Recently In Young was voted to be the “actress with the best belly” in Korea. :p

A! Crown J and In Young

One time Crown J seriously pissed In Young off, he wrote a song for her to say sorry. It’s a sweet song called “Too Much”. I managed to find the English lyrics and hope that the non-Korean speakers can enjoy a piece of good music.

Crown J- Too much (Feat. Seo In Young)

(Crown J)
Too much~ey too much~ey
Too much~ey too much hey ey

(In Young)
I love you only you I need you
The shine in my eyes that watch you and the way I talk
They seem to imitate you little by little

My mood that’s as bright as the sun
Heaven’s gift sent from above
You’re my last love~ ooh~ I love it

(Crown J)
A never ending fantasy as a duet
Feels like we’ll always be one team forever~ let’s do it
Even though you’re true self emerges when we’re fighting,
maybe I just think you still look pretty that way

Baby~ at that moment, even if I get hit, my heart still skips a beat
For me, I don’t need any other girl
It’s enough for me to love one
Our feelings from our love that are so soft

If i only have you, even when I’m awake I’m living a dream
I love you~I hope my feelings don’t ever change for you

From time to time, because of you one day feels like heaven and hell
Your name is the most beautiful restraint

Always inside my heart, always inside my head
I told you, i’m completely intoxicated with you~

(In Young)
I love you only you I need you
the way i look at you and the way I talk
they seem to resemble you little by little
My mood that’s as bright and cheerful as the sun
Heaven’s gift sent from above
You’re my last love~ Oh~ i love it

(Crown J)
Too much~ey too much~ey
Too much~ey, too much hey ey

Girl, do u like it?

I like it, I like it

I love you (x2)
ey~what u gonna do about that yeah

(Crown J)
Can I be as happy as this?
You’re my fantasy
The voice you call me with
has a melody even the keyboard can’t imitate

I’m sorry~ I always leave you all the time, I’m busy alone
You always wander inside of me
Can u feel me~maybe I’m feeling anxious
If you ever feel worried, don’t even allow yourself to think those thoughts
Baby my love is heavy weight, everyday
Even when I’m away from you, I’m still thinking about you

On my finger is a ring that fits just right
When I brush against your hand~I’m going crazy
You’re my best friend trust me I trust you
Something I’ve always wanted to tell you the whole day

(In Young)
I love you only you I need you
The way I look at you and the way I talk
They seem to imitate you little by little
My mood that’s as bright and cheerful as the sun
Heaven’s gift sent from above
You’re my last love~ ooh~ I love it

Too much too much too much (x2)
Too much too much

(In Young)
I love you only you I need you
the way I look at you and the way I talk
they seem to imitate you little by little

Love you, my best love to you yea
Can we look so into you, I love you woo~

(Crown J)
Too much~ey too much~ey
Too much~ey too much hey ey

If we’re going to be together, my mood is
If we spend one day together, everyday is
Baby 24/7 all day, i’m clean, so clean

Too much~ey too much~ey
Too much~ey

I had 3 cork boards installed at my apartment. I change the decorations of the boards from time to time for fun because I hate seeing boring white walls.

Sketchbook on the wall! (May2010)

“Sketchbook on the wall!” is the latest theme of my board. Basically I just move my journal on the board. The beautiful frabics are gifts from my mother from Central Asia.

Who is the one to fall in love first? Boy or girl?

Let’s Fall In Love (Karen Mok 莫文蔚)

–
作詞：姚謙 作曲：張佳添

想他的時候風忽然都 停了

好像老天想聆聽我心裡動作

Let us fall in love 他還不曉得

我每一分鐘都等著他 這樣承諾

Let us fall in love 在擁擠的寂寞中

我從來沒懷疑過這樣一個選擇

他微笑訴說心中想些什麼

我 多麼希望他能夠其中提到我

Let us fall in love 他還不曉得

在他眼中我的臉是多麼的失落

Let us fall in love 在擁擠的寂寞中

那一天他會開口說 Let’s fall in love

I am not going to write a book review because it’d be very long, but the late Stieg Larsson did a very good job to blow my mind away. This Swedish wirter amazingly came up with these amazing crime stories because his mother country has very low crime rate.

“It’s a beautiful song.”

“Yes, it is, Princess Priya.” Luka felt his cheeks flush red, but he tried very hard not to show his embarrassment. He was suffering from low self-esteem recently especially after he started to develop a slight affection for the princess.

“Would you please just call me Priya?” The princess smiled. “Friends do not need formalities. Besides, I’m in my pyjamas, so I don’t look exactly like a princess now.”

“Thank you, Pri…Priya.” He still felt a bit surreal to be friends with a princess, a true royalty. Yaira and Anzelm were heiress and heir of the richest families in the world, of course they made friends with royalties, or the royalties tried their best to please them. He was very fond of Yaira and Anzelm, however, deep down in his heart, he wanted to be more like Nad, who was always happy and willing to express his true feelings.

“Are you OK, Luka? You seem a little bit distracted.” Priya asked with concern.

“I am alright, Pri…Priya,” desperately trying to have a conversation with the princess and not being awkward, Luka said, “I am very happy to be here. Thank you for inviting me.”

“You should thank Yaira instead. She’s a very generous hostess.”

“I mean, I love being with you…guys.” Luka was totally shock by himself but he managed to “mend” his sentence at the last moment.

“Me too! I am glad to be here!” Without noticing Luka’s embarrassment, Priya was immersing herself in happiness. “This is the first time I have quality time with my best friends. I really enjoy my freedom on this island.”

For the first time, Luka looked at the girl he adored in her eyes, “I wish you happy everyday.” He said sincerely. Suddenly he realized nothing was more important than her well being, although he might not be able to tell her his feelings at all.

“Do you know you have beautiful eyes?” Priya somehow felt the weight in his words, but she figured it was not the right time, yet.

1.Call Waiting

My friend V is a active member of MusiCall, a local Christian music organization. They had their annual concert in Tusen Wan Town Hall last Sunday. I was astonished at the members’ voices and skills. They handled different music style and languages well. It is also not hard to notice their passion for music.  Although I am not a believer in religion, I do like to listen to religious music because it represents one important part of human civilization.

2. Abby and Eric

NCIS is my favorite TV show. As it’s becoming more and more popular, CBS starts its spin-off show this year (like CSI and it’s spin-offs). NCIS: Los Angeles is starred by my favorite Chris O’Donnell. I don’t really like the first few episodes because the story lines were quite weak, however, I am stunned by the latest episode, crossed-over with the original NCIS star Pauley Perrettee playing the gothic forensic geek Abby Sciuto.

Pauley, as awesome as always, lightens up the whole episode. Her interaction with Eric Beale (played by Barrett Foa, who is also a stage actor and has a great voice. I hope the show can focus more on him in the future XD) is particularly appealing. Eric is now officially my new favorite NCIS guy.

My favorite song of Peter, Paul and Mary’s:

Puff the Magic Dragon
Written by: (Leonard Lipton, Peter Yarrow)
Album: “Moving” – 1962

–

Puff, the magic dragon lived by the sea
And frolicked in the autumn mist in a land called Honah Lee

Little Jackie Paper loved that rascal Puff,
and brought him strings and sealing wax and other fancy stuff. Oh

Puff, the magic dragon lived by the sea
And frolicked in the autumn mist in a land called Honah Lee
Puff, the magic dragon lived by the sea
And frolicked in the autumn mist in a land called Honah Lee

Together they would travel on a boat with billowed sail
Jackie kept a lookout perched on Puff’s gigantic tail,
Noble kings and princes would bow whene’er they came,
Pirate ships would lower their flags when Puff roared out his name. Oh

Puff, the magic dragon lived by the sea
And frolicked in the autumn mist in a land called Honah Lee
Puff, the magic dragon lived by the sea
And frolicked in the autumn mist in a land called Honah Lee

A dragon lives forever but not so little boys
Painted wings and giant rings make way for other toys.
One grey night it happened, Jackie Paper came no more
And Puff that mighty dragon, he ceased his fearless roar.

His head was bent in sorrow, green scales fell like rain,
Puff no longer went to play along the cherry lane.
Without his life-long friend, Puff could not be brave,
So Puff that mighty dragon sadly slipped into his cave. Oh

Puff, the magic dragon lived by the sea
And frolicked in the autumn mist in a land called Honah Lee
Puff, the magic dragon lived by the sea
And frolicked in the autumn mist in a land called Honah Lee

This is a song about growing up. Nothing is forever, Puff the magic dragon should know better than anyone. Why do I still feel sorry for him?

Little does the two inside the room knew that they were overheard by the others.

“Who’s singing in the middle of the night?”

“It’s our young hostess I suppose?”

“She’s too young to have a sad voice like this.”

“She’s not the eight-year-old anymore. She’s a lot mature after she went to college.”

“True, but she’ll always be our little sister.”

“It seems her song makes you sentimental, Nad.”

“She’s been through a lot lately, April!” Nad was a bit tetchy. “I can’t believe she didn’t tell us about the kidnap.”

“I am upset too, but you can’t seriously blame her. The kidnap has traumatized her enough.” April held Nad’s hand gently. “She’s a headstrong 16-year-old genius. Besides, you can’t expect a young teenage girl to open her heart with you.”

“Why not?”

“A. You are absentminded. B. You are a boy.” April burst into giggles.

“Very funny.” Nad stared at his childhood friend, his classmate and girlfriend. “Do you think I am absentminded?”

“Yes,” April smiled at him, “but in a sweet way.”

“I don’t like to hear such sad song from her. Yaira should be carefree, constantly showing off her wealth and intelligence,” Nad insisted. “And constantly making troubles for her friends.”

“Let it go, Nad,” April turned Nad’s face to her with her hands. “Don’t be overprotective.”

“Stop smirking at me.”

He’s a world famous R&B singer. She is a 16 year-old PhD student.

He came to see her during her vacation with her friends.

“O My princess.”

“I’m your princess, but you’re everyone’s prince.” She laughed.

“I’m solely yours, as always.”

“Liar,” said she. “Why are you really here?”

A long pause. “Why am I always being left in sorrow?”

“You just haven’t met the right one yet.”

“Can you sing for me please?”

“I think you are the famous singer here.”

“I need your voice now.”

“What am I to sing?”

“Anything sad.”

“This is self-torture.”

“Please~~~”

“You are such a baby.”

“To you only.”

Contrasting to her youthful look, she owned a deep, low voice, just like Joni Mitchell’s.

Both Sides Now (oroginal sang by Joni Mitchell)

Bows and flows of angel hair and ice cream castles in the air
And feather canyons everywhere, i’ve looked at cloud that way.
But now they only block the sun, they rain and snow on everyone.
So many things i would have done but clouds got in my way.

I’ve looked at clouds from both sides now,
From up and down, and still somehow
It’s cloud illusions i recall.
I really don’t know clouds at all.

Moons and junes and ferris wheels, the dizzy dancing way you feel
As every fairy tale comes real; i’ve looked at love that way.
But now it’s just another show. you leave ‘em laughing when you go
And if you care, don’t let them know, don’t give yourself away.

I’ve looked at love from both sides now,
From give and take, and still somehow
It’s love’s illusions i recall.
I really don’t know love at all.

Tears and fears and feeling proud to say “i love you” right out loud,
Dreams and schemes and circus crowds, i’ve looked at life that way.
But now old friends are acting strange, they shake their heads, they say
I’ve changed.
Something’s lost but something’s gained in living every day.

I’ve looked at life from both sides now,
From win and lose, and still somehow
It’s life’s illusions i recall.
I really don’t know life at all.

—

“Do you feel better now?” She asked after taking a breath.

“Not at all.”

Abby Sciuto from NCIS. I like her character very much.
