  • Smiling from within

    Wake up at 7.15am everyday, go to school, have healthy foods.

    Read, discuss and analyse with coursemates.

    Go running in the weekends, with the headphones, seeing kids running towards the great sunlight upon the greenest grass ever.

    Gosh, this is heaven.

  • The very first day

    It's always interesting to meet new people, it gives you the general feeling of how things go.It s been the third day of my arrival, and I finally get to meet a group of new people.They were generally younger than I expected, mostly fresh graduates, and I am one of the few "mature students".

    Two of them were graduates from Oxford who at the same time, possess trainning contracts on hand. Some of them were purely here because they couldn't find a job after obtainning a degree. The others...don't really seems to have a purpose really.

    I have successfully persuaded two coursemates to get hardheaded with me. Both were born in Italy, one is a HK girl, the other, a USA real estate company owner who at the same time agreed to work towards becoming a Bar with me! Although classes only begin on Wednesday, we have already decided to start early, which we will meet at the library tomorrow morning at 9am. Materials that we all agreed to finish reading by tomorrow, for the purpose of discussion before any Lectures.

    Yes, I can see this really coming through. 6 years ago, which I had the chance to do exactly the same thing, I didn't at last. I chose lifestyles, friends and dramas. Indeed, for the past 6 years, they have been my outstanding areas. However, it's time. It should be the right time now. 

    It's ironic that I ve seen some of my previous attitudes and behaviours among the group of people, and I decided that I no longer want to act that way. This time round, is really, one shot, one opportunity, eager to succeed.

  • One shot

    Look, if you had one shot, or one opportunity
    To seize everything you ever wanted-One moment
    Would you capture it or just let it slip?

    His palms are sweaty, knees weak, arms are heavy
    There's vomit on his sweater already, mom's spaghetti
    He's nervous, but on the surface he looks calm and ready
    To drop bombs, but he keeps on forgettin
    What he wrote down, the whole crowd goes so loud
    He opens his mouth, but the words won't come out
    He's choking, how everybody's joking now
    The clock's run out, time's up over, bloah!
    Snap back to reality, Oh there goes gravity
    Oh, there goes Rabbit, he choked
    He's so mad, but he won't give up that
    Easy, no
    He won't have it , he knows his whole back's to these ropes
    It don't matter, he's dope
    He knows that, but he's broke
    He's so stagnant that he knows
    When he goes back to his mobile home, that's when it's
    Back to the lab again yo
    This this whole rhapsody
    He better go capture this moment and hope it don't pass him

    [Hook:]
    You better lose yourself in the music, the moment
    You own it, you better never let it go
    You only get one shot, do not miss your chance to blow
    This opportunity comes once in a lifetime yo

    The soul's escaping, through this hole that it's gaping
    This world is mine for the taking
    Make me king, as we move toward a, new world order
    A normal life is boring, but superstardom's close to post mortem
    It only grows harder, only grows hotter
    He blows us all over these hoes is all on him
    Coast to coast shows, he's know as the globetrotter
    Lonely roads, God only knows
    He's grown farther from home, he's no father
    He goes home and barely knows his own daughter
    But hold your nose cause here goes the cold water
    His hoes don't want him no mo, he's cold product
    They moved on to the next schmoe who flows
    He nose dove and sold nada
    So the soap opera is told and unfolds
    I suppose it's old partner', but the beat goes on
    Da da dum da dum da da

    [Hook]

    No more games, I'ma change what you call rage
    Tear this motherfucking roof off like 2 dogs caged
    I was playing in the beginning, the mood all changed
    I been chewed up and spit out and booed off stage
    But I kept rhyming and stepwritin the next cypher
    Best believe somebody's paying the pied piper
    All the pain inside amplified by the fact
    That I can't get by with my 9 to 5
    And I can't provide the right type of life for my family
    Cause man, these goddam food stamps don't buy diapers
    And it's no movie, there's no Mekhi Phifer, this is my life
    And these times are so hard and it's getting even harder
    Trying to feed and water my seed, plus
    Teeter totter caught up between being a father and a prima donna
    Baby mama drama's screaming on and
    Too much for me to wanna
    Stay in one spot, another day of monotony
    Has gotten me to the point, I'm like a snail
    I've got to formulate a plot fore I end up in jail or shot
    Success is my only motherfucking option, failure's not
    Mom, I love you, but this trailer's got to go
    I cannot grow old in Salem's lot
    So here I go is my shot.
    Feet fail me not cause maybe the only opportunity that I got

    [Hook]

    You can do anything you set your mind to, man

  • The second time round packing

    After the same old 3 years,  I am doing the packing in my second rented flat.

    Again, it's a flight to the UK, but this time, is a definite longer period.

    Was flipping through the pages in my xanga, 3 years ago, the same time, I was doing exactly the same thing.

    Is my mentality different? Definitely.

  • Macallan 12 years and The lonely tenor Sax

    Sometimes, I wonder...whether it really happened?
    So distint from the scenes of my current life.
    Far from the image I possess here.
     
    They were movie images.
    Characters in films, weren't we?
     
    I'd soak myself in the costly memory
    hung a swallow of Macallan
    the taste of bitterness
     
    numbness, I thought...
     
    DC 078
     
     
    You go to my head
    And you linger like a haunting refrain
    And I find you spin'n round in my brain
    Like a bubble in a glass of champagne
    You go to my head
    Like a sip of sparkling burgandy brew
    And I find the very mention of you
    Like the kicker in a julep or two
    Oh the thrill of the thought
    That you might give a thought
    To my plea
    Cast a spell over me
    Still I say to myself
    Get a hold of yourself
    Can't you see that it never can be
    Yes
    mmm You go to my head
    With a smile that makes my temperature rise
    Like a summer with a thousand Julys
    You intoxicate my soul with your eyes
    Though I'm certain that this heart of mine
    Hasn't a ghost of a chance
    In this crazy romance
    You go to my head...
    You go to my head...
    You go....to....my....head.....

  • Theme of my drama: Nulla in mundo pax sincera

    Nulla in mundo pax sincera,
    Sine felle; pura et vera
    Dulcis jesu est in te.

    Inter poenas et tormenta,
    Vivit anima contenta,
    Casti amoris, sola spe.

    Translation:

    There is no true peace in the world
    without bitterness; in you, sweet Jesus,
    it is pure and rightful.

    Amongst anguish and torment
    lives the contented soul,
    its only hope, chaste love.

    by Antonio Vivaldi

  • Philosophy about people

    If you like to be hard, there must be people liking to be soft.

    If you try to be soft and avoid the awkwardness of playing hard against the soft....then, the soft will no longer feels their soft, hence, leaving a world without any soft nor hard, then what s this place gonna be?

    Only when there s hard, you can see the soft, if all hard turns to be soft, the soft finds no reason to be soft, because, maybe, the whole reason of being soft is to be different from hard...

    So, when the soft comes to the hard and goes "Hey, hard, don't be so hard, u ll be so awkward when there are many softs..."

    Hard can reply "Hey, you, you know what? The only reason you can feel your soft is that there is hard..."  

    If you see what I mean...yeah.

  • Clock is ticking

    The choices of getting marry and having kids seems approaching closer and closer.

    The choices of making up your mind and choosing which way you wanna go seems getting nearer and nearer.

    I thought we can still be spoil and follow our feelings.

    I thought we are still young and the world is still tolerating us.

    Thou, seeing people around, getting settled and steady, the fire within them is completely extinguished,

    I know and I should have known,

    the clock is ticking.
