When I grow up

When I was 11, I wish I was a good sister, 

like Violet.

When I was 14, I wish I was secretly a Princess,

like Princess Mia.

When I was 17, I wish I was smart,

like Hermione.

When I was 21, I wish I could run a company,

like Richie Rich.

When I was 25, I wish I was famous,

like Pussycat Dolls

but

by 29, I wish I'll be a cool mom,

like Ted's mom.

Movies

No, bukan new movies I've watched recently.

Today, I'm going to post movies that I can recite even in my dreams. (≧◡≦)

1. 3 Ninjas - "Last Summer, me and my brothers-" "My Brothers and I" "Whatever!"

I used to have such huge crush for Rocky a.k.a. Michael Treanor. :P

2. Ever After - "I told you Gustav, Not today!" "You look like a girl" "That's what I am half wit" "yeah but today you look it!"

I know I've mentioned this before but this Cinderella movie is my utmost favorite because it shows how very strong the Cinderella character was without magic. Her strength was only from her wit and cleverness.

3. Mulan - "little brother! oh there you are. who's the smartest doggy in the world?" "Fa Lee, is your daughter here yet? The matchmaker isn't a patient woman" "Of all day to be late"

also, another girl power favorite. Mulan's character was so boy-ish here and shows that a lady can be as strong as a man if she wanted to be.

hahaha 

this post has no point.

I just want people to know I'm a freak somehow or another.

hahaha

I have the habit of watching a movie over and over again (even if its just in the background while I was doing something else on my phone or laptop) especially when it has a good storyline or action scene or simple brilliant punch line!

currently, I'm addicted to Easy A which has Emma Stone as the leading role. so this could be the fourth movie that I'm going to be able to recite in my sleep. hahahah

Close To Me

Close To Me by BoA

taken from her Shout It Out single.

Coz I am jobless and hating my job (plus a certain someone) to death (╹◡╹)凸

I am making myself busy by trying to memorize this song by the end of this week.

This song was supposed to be easy because it has so much English that I don't understand why is it not in English saja? щ（ﾟДﾟщ）

But it's not easy. I'm always off key during the chorus (not saying I wasn't during any other part of the song; it's just I am more off-key-err during the chorus). and I really don't know how I else I should do it.

I only just realize that I actually have the minus one (meaning the karaoke version or on the official Track List says 'Close To Me (Inst)' Inst being instrument only) version of this song! Now I can record myself (as I usually do when I'm "memorizing" a song) and pretended that I'm in some kind of a studio, recording my new single (n˘v˘•)¬ 
Currently I've recorded two and I'm not very happy with the outcome. 

Practice makes perfect they said.

But I say, lets just give it a rest for tonight and try again ...say, next month.

ahahahaha

So for now, enjoy. 

Here's the romanized lyrics for you to read. 

Let's memorize together! xD

Sitting alone kabe ni motare reminiscing

Taiyo falling thru kigi no suki ma kara

Now I'm so sorry Konnanimo afure teru

Amai kaori ni

kizuite you're my something I'll be next to you

Am I getting too close? I just want you to stay

Zutto isshoda yo and don't go away

you're always here with me Ima, ai no uta ryute tsutsumikonde hanasanaide

Sono nukumori o kawarazu ni

Now I'm getting you close to me

Mayoikonda koneko no yo It's embarrassing

Kako mo, ima mo, mirai everyday

I'm looking at pictures and know you and then donna ni datte

Aoku tada so clear

Kizuite you're my something I'll be next to you

Am I getting too close? I just want you to stay

Zutto isshoda yo and don't go away

You're always here with me imma ai no uta ryute tsutsumikonde hanasanaide

Sono nukumori o kawarazu ni

now I'm getting you close to me

You are the sin, you are the light

You are in my perfect picture, here I am

mo hitostu can I ask

Oh am I getting too close

I just want you to stay zutto isshoda yo and don't go away

you're always here with mr imma ai no uta ryute tsutsumikonde hanasanaide

Sono nukumori o kawarazu ni

and now I'm getting you close to me (close to me)

oh I'll be next to you now I'm getting you close to me

Here's also the live version

I have a love/hate thing with this live version. i hate it coz she used too much nostril voice. I love it coz towards the end when she builds up the song, it's her awesome live voice that made me love her so much! 
but no matter, you gotta respect BoA for getting where she is now. I know she deserves it. I'm not really a 'constant' fan of hers but from where I've been following her up until now, I've seen her hard work and versatility. I just hope she will stop trying so hard to break it into the US (as in becoming English). She is great where she is now, she should focus on that. I'm not saying she shouldn't try at all. I'm saying stop 'trying too hard' and lose focus. that's all I'm saying.
Remember her Make Your Move movie? BoA was the female lead and at one point the movie was just trying so hard to make this Aya's character 'awesome' like she can switch languages without trouble; speaking Japanese to her friend and then spoke Korean with her brother in the same conversation. It's just, maybe not the best way to sell a movie? I don't know. 
Critical Analyzing maybe one of the Sept characteristics but Music/Movie business isn't really my forte so, imma shut dap now. 

Maybe I should try and stay focus instead ~(◠﹏⊙✿)

Living in your shadow

I'm 27 years old and soon to be 28.

I think I can live on my own.

I always dream about living alone in a small apartment; doing things at my own pace at my own time.

It's not the norm here in Brunei, of course. Unless you live in Bandar but work in KB or Temburong which most people often either share rented house with other colleagues or stay with a relative. but if you live in Bandar and work in Bandar, it's weird to not live at your own house. (I've never heard anyone of my cousins (yg bujang) ever live alone di Bandar ani. So I don't know about other people ah).

I wonder what the reaction would be if I was to make this dream of mine reality. Kajut beruk kali eh semua urg.

hahahah

I mean, 
One; I'm perempuan. I don't think it's advisable to live alone. (but I'm often left alone when semua urg jalan/melepak/etc till so late at night. When we were in the phase of moving house, I was often alone coz my mom stayed at the new house during renovations.)

Two: I can just hear my uncles and aunties saying, 'Rumah mama mu basar atu, inda kan tinggal arah lain?' 'Kesian jua mama mu sorang2 tu' yadda yadda yadda 

Three: My mom would think we all trying to leave her. as in 'buang' ia or something. -.- my question to those parents who felt like they are being left behind is this, "Didn't you live your parents to raise your family?" If they answer me "atu lain" my retort would be "sama saja pun. you leave them behind, to build a life of your own. and visited them (if rajin) on weekends only" am I correct? or am I right?

Four: People would think I'm selfish. Yes, maybe. but isn't this the dream of so many people? Inda kan aku mesti kawin baru tah bulih pindah rumah? Didn't mother always said to me (to us all really) to 'Pandai-pandai tah kamu bah eh' which translated into 'be independent'?? So how am I supposed to be independent when I still live with my mom? right? ლ(ﾟдﾟლ)

I was once labelled 'too liberal' by some saloon aunty, I remember blushing when she said that but I don't know if I was offended or ashamed or 'caught'.
But i think now that I don't mind being labelled 'liberal' which in her context it means 'freedom' 'independent'. 
Coz I know I can be independent if you would just give me the chance, mom!
(┛◉Д◉)┛彡┻━┻

Haha

I wish I've discussed the above matter with mom but no. of course not. I'm Asian with a very strict Asian mom. you think I would win this debate? (￣□￣)

Possibility of losing and ended up cutting my mom of my life would be too high.

Hahahaha

Well, as a good friend of mine once said, "Angan-angan atu free"

☜-(ΘLΘ)-☞

another Concert

It seems like a very long time since I last post anything kpop here.

So, here goes;

SHINee annouced last Nov 1st at their I'm Your Boy concert in Hiroshima, Japan
that they are invited to do a concert at Tokyo Dome on March 14th, 2015.

Jonghyun was crying. that cry baby dino. can't he just left it in behind-the-scene thing?

(photo cr as per shown)

haha sorry, being insensitive there. he must've felt much love then. It was their long awaited dream to perform at Tokyo Dome (some kind of prestigious thing to do, like performing in Royal Albert Hall, London, I guess *shrugged*). Hence, he was crying. Key did too but more handsomely then this one. hahaha sorry dino. but come on~

anywayyyy, I was thinking, I WANNA GO! to Japan next year. visiting plus concert.

How i wish I'm super2 rich right now. 

I mean, I can't be sure if all members gonna be there, like the last concert of their SHINee World III, Onew wasn't there. I would hate to have come to the concert and one member couldn't make it.
I guess i want it to be as perfect as my first SMTown concert in Singapore. Everyone was there.

sigh.

Let us google flight tix and hotel tix for now. After I see the prices, then maybe I can decide properly.

. . .

Sampai Hajat

so, I mentioned that I went to Singapore recently and smua hajat smpi.

1) Kimmydoll

2) Smiggle

3) SMTown Live in Singapore tickets!! (Onewssi~~ here I come~!! xP)

and of course the most excited one is ticket ke SMTown tu lah!! xD

insyaAllah, akan tersampai lah ceta2 ku tahun ini. xP

. . .

my dream duet xD

Have you ever dream of doing a duet with yr beloved artist(s)?

I have.

and ever thought that it'd be a far-fetch, fat-chance, never-gona-happen dream?

I have.



BUT WHO GIVE A FCUK?!

IT'S YOUR DREAM.



*inhale, exhale*



So,

here's one of the song that I want to do a duet with my fav artist.



Art of Love by Guy Sebastian feat Jordin Sparks.





xD

and the fav artist; SHINee's Onew.

wawawawa

but really it's a nice song and I think Onew can pull it off easy.

and NO. they have to edit my voice for it blend well with Onew's.

the Pianist in Me xP

hello happy people. I just wana share with you these two master pieces. hehe


first, Love Poem. this is one 'discover' from the Korean Drama Spring Waltz. I duno whether am supposed to be happy or sad when i hear this piece. but I LOVE IT!




second, River Flows in You. this one, I 'discover' when I was browsing for the actually Bella's Lullaby (from Twilight). I have never love a piece like i did for this one. *sigh dreamily* n the fact that SHINee's Taemin love and actually can play this makes it even more meaningful~ xP




now, how I wish i could play the piano. it's the best music instrument, EVER. to me lah. besides the harp and the violin. ehehe
