- Her Truth -

 Greetings and salutations.  Let's get started with the usual, shall we?  This song is one of my favourites lately. This particular part of the lyrics had goosebumps plastered all over my body when I first listened to it.  【谁让，时间是让人猝不及防的东西。 晴时有风，阴时有雨。 争不过朝夕，又念着往昔，偷走了青丝却留住一个你。 岁月是一场有去无回的旅行， 好的坏的都是风景。】 And as per usual, this is my best attempt with the translation of the part of the lyric I love so much (I apologize in advance if I have butchered any part of this beautiful song) : [We're always caught up in the endless flow of time.  In the midst of the journey of life, there will inevitably be times of stormy weather. We will never be able to defy the racing of time, yet we tend to mourn and cling to the past that is long gone.  Our youth will only pass us by and what will be left is the present. We hold a one-way ticket in life and there shall be no return. Every moment, despite good or bad, shall all be fond memories as time washes over us.] How beautiful....

 Hello again, my dearest readers.  There are so many songs that are constantly on repeat in my playlist and I really can't decide which one is the one I love best at this moment.  I've decided I would want to put down this song here, called <好想爱这个世界啊> by Hua Chen Yu.  My friend introduced this song to me and told me this song was written by the singer when he was contemplating death during the darkest times of his life. And God, when I listened to the lyrics it really does hit me right in the heart.  In December last year, everything came crumbling down in an instant and I realised that I couldn't do this alone anymore.  I found myself in a very dark place in my life where all I could ever think of was to end my own life with my own hands. This scary thought and this voice within me would torment me again and again until I fear that I myself, would give in.  I finally picked myself up from the mess I'd held within all these years and went to the ...

Good evening, it's been quite a while since I've dropped by.  Now let's start with the usual.  This year has not been particularly kind,  and this song has been one that I deeply resonate with in recent times.  The opening part of the lyric calls to me and gives me a sense of familiarity.  As I've mentioned previously,  I'm a sucker for meaningful lyrics.  It goes like this:   【世界上有很多东西，生不带来死不带去, 你能带走的只有自己和自己的脾气 。 你曾拥有最美的爱情，你听过最美的旋律。 触碰过一个人孤独的恐惧，也看过了最美的风景。】 My translation:   We leave this world in the same state we came into it.  Bringing nothing in and thus, nothing away. We could only take ourselves and our legacies with us when our time comes .  You've encountered the most beautiful love in your lifetime,  and you've heard the most beautiful melodies life could offer.  You've touched the brim of loneliness and felt your own fear,  but was healed by the countless breathtaking views in your journey in life.  As ...

  Greetings.  Let's start with the usual. You would've heard this song all over the internet by now.  I don't really understand the meaning, but it is a beautiful song and I really like it.  I've finally finished my degree and is currently waiting for the graduation ceremony. (If I could  pass my finals, that is).  However,  I feel like passing would not be much of a problem as I tried my best just like I always do.  So what brought me here today? In this semi-abandoned blog?  A lot has happened along the year and I could safely say that 2022 is not a year that I would remember fondly.  As usual, I would never disclose private matters onto the internet but all the things that had happened this year would surely be ingrained in my mind. Plans had changed, multiple anxiety inducing incidents had happened and everything is not going as planned.  But I have to convince myself that this is exactly life should be, 'not going as planned'....

 Greetings. I know it's been a while since I dropped by.  Things had been very busy, with the pandemic and all. I just finished my mid-term exam and thought this was just the right time to put up an update with life.  Before all that, of course, here's one of my favourite songs (from a year ago. I have not been listening to many songs lately. But hey, that means I'm less glued to my headphones, which is always good. ) To Me - by Alina Baraz I'm in the midst of doing my year 3 in the UK.  Surprise! It's my 5th month here.  I've never thought I would be here. But here I am.  It's pretty different from what I've expected, less exciting.  But who am I to say this? I'm still that same old me that's not really enthusiastic about a lot of stuff. So for me to have a reaction like this is really within my expectation.  Don't get me wrong though,  I'm very grateful that I have the chance to be here.  To experience life in a different country and t...

I know it's a bit late for a new entry this year, but anyhow,  I'm back at it again.  Before I start, let me just fulfill my usual routine by inserting my current favourite song.  ' It's always the little things '- by Guo Ding.  Sometimes I'm ashamed of myself, I guess I'm still the same old me wherever I go.  I was and still is,  A person who hates crowded places. A person who avoids loud obnoxious environment at all times.  A person who enjoys tranquility and her own piece of mind ( perhaps a bit too much ).  A person who is a sucker for songs with actual meanings.  And a person who is helplessly emotional and affectionate.  Till this day,  I am not able to understand fully,  whether the ability to feel deeply,  is a curse or a blessing.  At times I'm glad that I could feel,  because it reminds me that I'm alive.  I would not exchange this for anything else an...
