Boston

[Now listening: Boston by Augustana]

Time for an update!

Throughout this so-called "holidays" of mine, I've acquired certain feedback from people who have entered JC's through the PAE. Other than "making friends" being the most sensible answer for the advantages for going to JC, seems like the rest haven't been appealing much to me.

So thank God I didn't go for it! (No offense though, and I'm not adding salt to wound to those in JCs in any way or other)

Anyway, this few weeks have been quite enriching despite the duration alone. In 2 weeks, I have been learning quite much stuff while going back to school to help the band out. Well, though it might not be that obvious, but I guess it has an accumulative effect!

It takes time, takes time.

Eh, but on a sadder not... kind of bored man. Whenever I wanna go out, it's so hard to go out in large groups can (especially when everyone else is in school -.-).

But nevertheless, this free time actually allows me to do many other stuff, and to sit down, relax, think and you know, brainstorm/reflect on things I've never thought of.

And thinking about it, I've never felt so free emotionally compared to now. Carefree. Great feeling man... it's like there's nothing much for me to worry about, just that when it's time for band, I gotta start thinking and stuff, which is not bad 'cause afterall I'm a human, and I'd have to work my brains once in a while right?

Or else I'll be considered a monotonous zombie - and a stupid one.

Okay, I don't know what else I wanna say, and I think I'm talking nonsense. Haha. Just to spend time away...

So, away with crap. Here's some real stuff, man!

Boston by Augustana



[Verse]
In the light of the sun
Is there anyone
Oh it has begun
Oh dear you look so lost
Eyes are red
And tears are shed
This world you must have crossed

[Chorus]
You said you don't know me
And you don't even care
Oh yeah
she said you don't know me
And you don't wear my chains
Oh yeah

[Verse]
Essential yet appealed
Carry all your thoughts
Across an open field
When flowers gaze at you
They're not the only ones
Who cry when they see you

[Chorus]

[Bridge]
She said I think I'll go to Boston
Think I'll start a new life
I think I'll start it over
Where no one knows my name

I'll get out of California
I'm tired of the weather
Think I'll get a lover
And fly him out to Spain

I think I'll go to Boston
I think that I'm just tired
I think I need a new town
To leave this all behind

I think I need a sunrise
I'm tired of a sunset
I hear it's nice in the summer
Some snow would be nice

You don't me, you don't even care
Oh yeah

Boston... no one knows my name
No one knows my name
No one knows my name

No one knows my name

Okay, somehow, the song made me remember some stuff. Haha, to be precise, all the memories of last year.

No link with the lyrics thought. But it's the feeling ah... just the feeling.

Who'd have known a year has gone.

[Now listening: Stop and Stare by OneRepublic]

2 days into the year 2008, and I still don't feel the change at all!

Weird, I'd say, maybe it's 'cause of the seemingly long holidays after O's that it makes, you know... me still in the holiday mood. Okay, I don't know what I'm talking 'cause I'm supposed to explain "why I'm still stuck in year 2007".

Maybe my lack of sleep has dragged my timing so slowly that I'm 2 months away from the so-called year 2008.

Apparently, I'm still not over stuff that have happened throughout the past 365 days (lazy to name each and every one), but well, miss 'em and will not forget 'em!

Anyways, best wishes to each and everyone for the new year, and those who are going for PAE, have fun (truthfully)! (:

For the rest who have not decided to join PAE -- be it to slack more, or have decided to join Polytechnic -- continue to have fun and well, have fun! Haha.

Ah well... thinking about it, almost everyone will be in school in 7/8 hours time, while I'll still be lazing in bed. But what really bothers me is that... I'll be so damn bored and more importantly, miss the company I had during the entire 2 months of break.

You know, all the outings, staying overnight outside home and stuff... not to forget class chalet and whatever memorable events that happened in the 2 months.

And one more thing... 4 years have really passed that damn quickly, and now we've gotta go our separate ways. But no matter how, hope the bond that was established in the 4 years will still remain, and... still have time together!

But right now, a GREAT, BIG thanks to all these peeps for everything:






Rock my life! (:

Stop and stare,
I think I'm moving but I go nowhere.
Yeah I know that everyone gets scared,
But I've become what I can't be, oh

Stop and stare
You start to wonder why you're here not there
And you'd give anything to get what's fair
But fair ain't what you really need
Oh, can u see what I see
