19th-Apr-2009 05:40 pm - I've had enough
Jon Foo *sword*
You know what? I should've done what [info]tiuneo suggested me since the beggining of it all, I'm dropping this LJ. I'll keep contact only with people I think I should keep talking to. Bye.
16th-Apr-2009 12:27 pm - Writer's Block: Theme Song
Jon Foo *sword*

What song would you choose as the theme song for your life?


View other answers

(Omg, LJ has been coming with cool themes lately - or maybe it's just me. I like music-related themes)

I guess that would be Foreplay/Longtime, from Boston.
Lyrics, for whom it might interest. xD

It's been such a long time, I think I should be going
But time doesn't wait form me, it keeps on rolling
Sail on on a distant highway
I've got to keep on chasing that dream, I've gotta be on my way
Wish there was something I could say

Well, I'm taking my time, I'm just moving along
You'll forget about it after I've been gone
And I'll take what I find, I don't want no more
It's just outside of your front door

It's been such a long time...

Well, I get so lonely when I am without you
But in my mind, deep in my mind, I can't forget about you
Good times and places that remind me
I'm trying to forget your name and leave it all behind me
You're coming back to find me

Well, I'm taking my time, I'm just moving along
You'll forget about it after I've been gone
And I'll take what I find, I don't want no more
It's just outside of your front door

It's been such a long time...

It's been such a long time, I think I should be going
But time doesn't wait for me, it keeps on rolling
There's a long road, I've gotta stay in time with
I've got to keep on chasing that dream or I may never find it
I'm always just behind it...


...it's hard to justify anything when the lyrics are already self-explanatory. But this question... I guess it really depends on your current mood, and I guess this is how I'm currently feeling. (...yes, that I'm in a road and that I should just keep walking)

Stolen from [info]sanguine_vlos 

X what you saw
O what you haven't finished/saw sizable portions
Bold what you loved
Strike for what you disliked/hated
Leave unchanged if you never saw it at all

15th-Apr-2009 01:28 pm - Writer's Block: Taxmen and Poetry
Ono - taking notes

It's Tax Day in the U.S., a day when the mind might be too occupied with deductions and long lines at the post office to think about poetry. But let's try: what's your favorite line of poetry? Song lyrics count.

LOL, I took a look at a couple of answers and barely saw lines of poetry. Most of the people answered this one with song lyrics, so I'll just go with the flow.

There are a couple of lyrics that I really like because their meaning is deep or reminds me of a particular thing, but I think that there is no song that makes me more thoughtful than this one:

Would you lose everything you ever had planned?
Would sit down again and play another hand?
Would you risk everything for the chance of being alone?
In the pressure find grace or would you come undone?
That's how legends are made. At least that's what they say.

We say goodbye, but never let go
We live, we die 'cause we can't save every soul
Gotta take every chance to show that you're the kind of man who
Will never look back, never look down and never let go.

Yup, from the movie The Guardian. I was never able to watch the entire movie and frankly, even though it seems quite a good movie, I don't have patience to watch it. The song is quite catchy, though (and I'm not saying this because it is Bryan Adams who sings it) and when I first really payed attention to the lyrics, I caught myself in thoughts.

First of all, I want to make it clear that I never considered myself a legend, so ignore the "that's how legends are made". In this specific case I consider "legend" not as being a person who is known and "worshiped" by everybody. For me, a person considered a "legend" is the one who did something remarkable, even if not for the others. In this context, I understand "legend" as a synonym for "a hero" (not necessarily considered a hero by the masses). I consider my father a "legend", for an instance.
Okay, so what's up with all this lecture?

Well, from my point of view, this song is all about the sacrifices that one can yield for the good of other people.
I wonder how far can one person go for the sake of the other people..?
How willing are people to risk everything for the sake of someone else?

I do think I know the third line well enough to say that I wouldn't mind risking a friendship that lasted for years, for an instance, for the sake of another person's well-being, even if that meant for me being alone in the end. Of course, I'm not the kind of person who would give up my boyfriend only because someone else likes him. At the same time, that doesn't necessarily mean that I don't value friendship.
Not only friendship. Seeing my life as it is, with all those trips and stuff, not rarely I have to leave my house and my family behind and go on by myself. Ok, maybe I'm not alone in the song's context, but you can't say that it isn't lonely to travel by yourself for a greater good (...which is bringing money for my family's well-being).

Maybe I'm missing the point here.

Anyway, I really saw my own self in this song. Maybe not in the context it was meant for, but in my own "life context".

Now I know how to react when I receive a shocking truth.

Seriously, Scott Meyer is a genius.

Oh, here's one of the things that make me say "WTF??".

I never thought about getting drunk and kissing fishes.

Jon Foo *angry*


Cooperative mode, both online and offline (split screen). Omg. I love cooperative mode.
I played a little bit of this game yesterday with my colleague. We pretty much lack synchronism, so we can't really play as good as the guys from the video. I'm trying to convince someone who has a XBox360 to play it with me, but it seems like I'll have to wait a little bit.

Oh, well...
