Lyrics:

さみしいと　さみしいと
Lonely, desolate
こころが騒いだ
My heart is in a tumult
いけないわ
This shouldn’t happen
奪われる罪深さを夢みてる
Yet I dream of the captivating sinfulness

永遠ください　指を噛んで
Please let this be for eternity, I bite on your finger
誘惑持つのよ　硝子のトール
Like the carried temptation, the glass doll

腕の中　こわれたい
In your arms, it seems I’m breaking
あなたが運命
You are my fate
やさしく触れるだけじゃ足りない
Just gently touching is not enough
泣きたい　泣かれたい
Wanting to cry, wanting you to cry
涙にキスして
Kissing the tears
そうっと開いた扉　ふたりだけの秘密
Softly opening the door, secrets belonging only to us

はなれない　はなれない
Please don’t leave, please don’t go away
想いはひとつと
Upon every one of our emotions
誓いましょ
Let’s make a vow
月明かり　白い肌を隠してね
Under the moonlight, to conceal our white bodies

自然に情熱　捧げながら
Sacrificing a natural passion
このまま素直に　とけて行くのね
Being this meek, it seems I’m going to melt

やめないで　甘えたい
Please don’t stop, please be kind to me
あなたに恋して
I have fallen in love with you
透明だった自分が変わる
My transparent self has transformed
咲きたい　咲かせたい
I want to flower, please bloom for me
瞳に映った
In your eyes, I can see
私が見る私　知らない女の子
The “me” I see there, is a girl I don’t know.

腕の中　こわれたい
In your arms, it seems I’m breaking
あなたが運命
You are my fate
やさしく触れるだけじゃ足りない
Just gently touching is not enough
泣きたい　泣かれたい
Wanting to cry, wanting you to cry
涙にキスして
Kissing the tears
そうっと開いた扉　ふたりだけの秘密
Softly opening the door, secrets belonging only to us
やっと気付いた私　女の子の秘密
I am at last aware of myself, a girl’s secrets

That is what i received in my mail today. Made me ‘rofl’

The bird swooped in from above, with upmost precision. Landing with such grace and yet swifty. Moving across the table like a ballroom dancer before picking up what seems like leftovers from the previous diners. After savaging from the pile, it then prepared it’s wings for flight..and with a flap, it’s off with it’s journey towards the great unknown.

Many a times, we do want to be like a bird. Besides being able to travel over great distances, we do enjoy that non-confinement.. of which many of us has yet to experience.

I was thinking of this complusory yet seems like hundrum labour I will have to do in about 2 years time. Yes, it’s the what’s known as ‘National Service’ or *coughcheaplabourcough* to some or even ‘2 years of hell’ to others. To me, it seems like a boring thing indeed (for I have not entered NS).
Let’s do some maths here. Every year, there will be 2 batches of males (complusory for males, voluntary for females) entering National Service. Assuming that 10,000 males per batch. 20,000 males per year (Stimulated Figures). That’s like 200,000 fully trained males ready for battle anytime, anyday.
Hey, that’s fucking smart of the government to do that! Force the males to enter, train them as ‘machines-to-counter-war for 2 years’ and then throw them back into society. They will have to relearn whatever they have learnt before they entered NS (if they forget).

Does that suck? It does. What do you learn in NS? Operation of kick-ass guns, surviving on the battlefield, teamwork amongst comrades, erm… Operation of not-so-kick-ass guns..etc. Does it teaches you how to survive in the future, the recession, or even when you lose a job? Yes it does! You join back the army again! Work as one of the officers!

Either way, why does National Service have to be complusory.. and males to enter after secondary school education (after 16 years old) if they did not apply for education at JCs, Poly, ITE etc. The time between 16 to adulthood seems to be the golden years. Where males grow from boys to men (majority). It is also where tertiary education comes in place. 2 years used for National service could have been spent for attaining a degree (take is if you take the Poly pathway).

I do not understand that making it complusory is necessary. Given that Singapore only has people, the government has no ‘other’ choice but to harvest us as resources. The nation owns our body. We are slaves! I am a slave of the country, fighting for the nation and brainwashed since young. I have watched many fight for their freedom. Unknown to choice — nor known to freedom. Have withstood years of pain to get out of here, yet I am still stuck here. So as I wait… Unlimited Slaves Works.
2 years is important. I don’t know man, but that 2 years is really important. How can the country ‘replace’ that 2 years? There’s this ‘Do not ask what the country can do for you, but what you can do for the country’. I abhor that ‘quote’. For what I know. I do not do things for the country. I do it for the community.

Overall I like the design. It’s about the same size as a thumbdrive which is really cool. Fingerprint marks could be easily seen due to the material used for the case :/

A couple of stuff in my household has started to reach it’s End Of Life (at the same time!).

Those include:

Washing Machine

Air-conditioner

Bicycle

Sandals

MD Player

and my missing Watch (Probably lost)
This is rather fucked up. :/
