Tumblr Questions

OK, so I am bored.

A: Who do you like and Why?
Right now? I don't think there is anyone, unless you count a certain someone whom I've kept at a distance for ages. Because sometimes it is better to idealize and dream after someone than having no one at all.

B: Have you ever been in love? If yes, how many times, and how do you know it was love?
Yes, but really only once, the others are just crushes or fancies. I know it was love because it hurt so much, and broke my heart to pieces. A part of me was taken by that love, probably never to return.

C: Longest relationship you've ever been in, and why did it end?
I would count it as...more or less than 2 years. Why? Because when we never were ready to be in a relationship.

D: Have you ever changed for someone, if yes, how?
I am not sure, because I don't really know where I changed.

E: Pretend I'm you ex, what do you want to say to me?
I love you, good-bye.

F: Have you ever been cheated on?
No.

G: Have you ever cheated?
Would that I could...joking!! I am not made for cheating, I really am not.

H: Would you date someone who's known for cheating, if yes why?
I probably wouldn't, but that's hard to say.

I: What's the most important part of a relationship?
Communication.

J: Do you like to be in serious relationships or just flings?
I don't know about flings, I think I prefer serious relationships.

K: When you are dating someone do you believe in going on "breaks"?
Yes and no. I believed if I had given us a chance for a break, maybe we wouldn't have broken up.

L: How many people have you ever hooked up with?
...2?

M: What's one thing you regret saying or not saying, doing or not doing in a previous relationship?
I don't ever want to lose you, but I lost you anyways, to a guy.

N: What age do you think is appropriate for kids to start having sex?
18

O: Do you believe in the phrase, "Age is just a number?" Why or why not?
Yes and no. Age will matter, but it depends on how much it would matter.

P: What about "Love at first sight"? Why or why not?
Yes, I do. Because love is unpredictable.

Q: Turn on's?
Eyes and a really nice smile reserved for me.

R: Turn off's?
Excessive make-up is a no.

S: What do you consider a deal breaker?
No idea.

T: How do you know it's time to end a relationship?
I don't, I always somehow get dumped or left behind.

U: Are you currently in a relationship? If yes, for how long? If no, how long have you been single?
I am single, and have been single for years now.

V: Do you think people who have dated can stay friends?
No. It would never be the same.

W: Do you think people should date their friends?
It's a risk, but some relationships start from friendship.

X: How many relationships have you had?
A serious one? 1.

Y: Do you think love can last forever?
Unfortunately, no...

Z: Do you believe love can conquer all things?
Again, no...

1: Would you break up with someone your parents didn't approve of?
If they don't approve, I will try even harder.

2: If you could go back in time and give yourself one piece of advice about dating what would it be?
Be honest, talk, and don't be so damn passive.

3: Do you think long distance relationships can work? Why or why not?
Not before I have tried it out, my views on it are still neutral.

4: What do you notice first about another person?
Their eyes.

5: Do gay, lesbians, bisexuals or transgender people bother you?
Of course not. Do straight people bother you?

在心中永遠的分手歌



記得

誰還記得是誰先說 永遠的愛我 
以前的一句話是我們 以後的傷口
過了太久沒人記得 當初那些溫柔 
我和你手牽手說要一起 走到最後

我們都忘了 這條路走了多久 
心中是清楚的 有一天 有一天都會停的
讓時間說真話 雖然我也害怕 
在天黑了以後 我們都不知道 會不會有以後

我們都累了 卻沒辦法往回走 
兩顆心都迷惑 怎麼說 怎麼說都沒有救
親愛的爲什麼 也許你也不懂 
兩個相愛的人 等著對方先說 想分開的理由

誰還記得愛情開始變化的時候 
我和你的眼中看見了 不同的天空
走得太遠終於走到 分岔路的路口 
是不是你和我 要有兩個 相反的夢

Hello, Ukraine!

Okay, it's been another month of neglect!! Though to be fair, I was quite busy during the whole month of May, in which my 21 birthday whizzed by without making any ripples. So, here I am.

I'm going to Ukraine for 7 weeks during summer vacation, even til now I still find this fact quite hard to absorb. Maybe because it happened so quickly and suddenly, and BAM! The e-ticket to Ukraine is already in my hands. Whoa, there. Maybe I have to be actually standing in the airport with a huge suitcase, and hearing the buzz of Ukrainian all around to get me to really see.

The truth is, I'm scared as hell.

怎麼一下子就大三下了?

(錯愕)

上一次發文在3月底,現在又已經5月初了,我到底都在幹嘛啊。說學校在忙也是真的,不過對於打網誌卻真的是完全被忽略了。(其實從2011年開始我就沒怎麼再增加網誌內容了) 春假已經過去了,普雷又來臨了,我快要大四了...唉。這段網誌空白期,發生了很多事。以前我會習慣性把發生的事情以網誌紀錄下來,可是年紀越大越懶得這麼做。

先從瑪奇開始談起吧...

HAMMER

Thanks to Autostraddle, I now know Sarah Blasko. I immediately searched and downloaded 3 of her albums. Out of the 3, What the Sea Wants, The Sea Will Have is by far my favorite one. I think I already mentioned before that I usually take great liking to songs that aren't focused on love, but instead on life. Love songs are great, they can touch your heart at specific moments in your life. But once you stepped over that love or memory or whatever, the song also becomes something of the past. Songs about life, emotions, and being a human in general usually never fall out of fashion because those are part of living life.

Hammer is a song that aptly describes my own frustrations in life, recently.

15 Songs that went on endless re-plays in my iPod

In no particular order, here goes the 15 songs. (I'm not including OST songs.)

1) Trolley Wood - Eisley

This was the song that made me discover Eisley. To tell the truth, I don't understand what the lyrics are talking about, but I love the melody and harmony of it. Somehow it also reminds me of the twins Adeline and Emmeline from the book The Thirteenth Tale.

"Out one day
Walking one day
Out one day, with you hallelujah"

2) 下個星期去英國 - 陳綺貞

Cheer Chen's songs are great, but this is the one score that I could really relate to. It tells of two friends who have drifted apart, and I know what that feels like. Everytime this I listen to this song, I recall our friendship, high school, and the distance that is now between us.

"因為我曾是你 我曾是你 無話不說的朋友
因為我們改變太多"

3) Love Story - Taylor Swift

Heh, I actually was the first among my friends to discover Taylor Swift before she came to Taiwan. This song also became the theme song of our freshman English play Juliet, though ironically our play was no love story.

"We were both young when I first saw you..."

4) Yell - いきものがかり

The lyrics of this song strikes a chord within me. They tell of dreams, hope, and being lost. Ever since getting into college, I've been constantly thinking of my future. What am I going to do after graduation? What do I want to do? I think back on childhood dreams, and find that I don't have dreams now anymore, which makes me sad...

"「“わたし”は今 どこに在るの」と 踏みしめた足跡を 何度も見つめ返す
「”我”現在在哪?」 反復地凝視著走過足跡
枯葉を抱き 秋めく窓辺に かじかんだ指先で 夢を描いた
在秋天來臨的時候懷抱著枯葉 用凍僵的手指 描畫著夢想"


5) 情歌 - 梁靜茹

I usually don't take much liking to conventional love songs, but I think this one is pretty decent. And it does make me sad.

"還好我有 我這一首情歌
輕輕的輕輕哼著 哭著笑著
我的 天長地久"

6) Obvious - Hey Monday

This will always be Fang and Vanille's song in my heart, also my gateway song to Hey Monday.

"So surreal
As the story unfolds on the screen
Stop stalling
The credits are rolling
Hold me now
Before we run out of time"

Here's the list: (I bold the ones that apply to me)

Jaw-dropping, Mahou Shoujo

I usually view only one anime series per season (sometimes not even finishing one), and I was convinced into watching Mahou Shoujo Madoka Magica for this winter season. I saw this particular series in the preview articles, and it didn't catch my eye at all. The art is too moe for me, and I'm personally not very interested in the mahou shoujo genre. The only anime that I watched in this genre was Cardcaptor Sakura, and that's like years ago.

Okay, so how was I convinced? I read some interesting speculations and reactions to this series from various aniblogs, but that wasn't enough to push me into watching it. Instead, my friends in Mabinogi gave such interesting reactions after watching 3 episodes of Madoka Magica that I decided to watch it.

Hermione in Harry Potter 7

I think Harry Potter stands as a very important part of my childhood, and I've religiously went to the movies for all the big screen versions of them. But as I grow older, the passion has faded considerably. This does not mean I don't like Harry Potter anymore, I still do; it's just that I now have other stuff to be obsessed about. I realized some time ago that my memory of the Harry Potter books ends at volume four, literally. I remember most of what happened in the first four volumes, I know what happened, what transpired, and the endings. But from there on, my memories are blurred and need a lot of prodding to recall things.

And so, it took me a long time to get to theaters for this first part of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, mostly because I wasn't that enthusiastic at first. Only when the movie had almost stopped showing did I realize I've been present for all of the movies before, so I went to see it. Welllll, I remember only small details about the seventh book, so I saw this movie almost like someone who has never read the book, lol.

In Midst of the Finals Week

為什麼睡不著。

























看(複習)完了Harry Potter第六集,沒錯,在期末考週。唉,我看到Dumbledore死掉,還真的滿難過的,也想起當時看完這一集時多麼的想知道接下來會有什麼發展。當然,我現在依然想不起第七集在講啥,除了結局。

Ginny和Harry的戀情首次登場,我怎麼覺得他們比我現實中認識的情侶還要閃到我的感覺? 他們的故事讓我感到好孤單,真的好孤單啊... 幹,害我現在心情有點低落。

為什麼我就碰不到呢? 我就是碰不到,也找不到能讓我認真去愛的人。

2010 +1

唔,2010就在我24小時不眠的狀況下跨到2011。不過這次我原本打算是窩在家裡跟Summer、爆告、還有瑪奇一起跨年的。沒想到,衝著建國100年這美妙的紀念數字,我竟然跑去升旗了。因為升旗要很早起,所以我就乾脆不睡了,直接熬夜到出門。

感想:我再也不會去升旗了。

大概唯一有點感動到的部分是聽"奉獻"這首歌時...

長路奉獻給遠方 玫瑰奉獻給愛情
我拿什麼奉獻給你 我的愛人
白雲奉獻給草場 江河奉獻給海洋
我拿什麼奉獻給你 我的朋友

我拿什麼奉獻給你
我不停的問
我不停的找
不停的想~

白鴿奉獻給藍天 星光奉獻給長夜
我拿什麼奉獻給你 我的小孩
雨季奉獻給大地 歲月奉獻給季節
我拿什麼奉獻給你 我的爹娘

...這個歌詞真的太感人了,邊聽會邊回想起2010的許多種種。 Q_Q
