Truth is~
I think of life to be fruitfully beautiful,
with the right dose of -
love, chaos, simplicity, eccentricity and paradox.
"'Cause it's a bittersweet symphony, this life."
Most of all,
I'm pretty normal...you know? ^^

望春风
陶喆独夜无伴守灯下清风对面吹十七八岁未出嫁想着少年家果然标志面肉白谁家人子弟想要问伊惊坏势心里弹琵琶谁说女人心难猜欠个人来爱花开当折直需摘青春最可爱自己买花自己戴爱恨多自只要人生不重来何不放开怀Heh...Another one of David Tao's songs, a slightly more popular one since it's a partly re-written version of an old Hokkien song (the 1st 2 stanzas are the original Hokkien lyrics).
FYI, I don't listen to Hokkien songs wo~~~ Besides songs that feature some Hokkien phrases like the renowned '天黑黑 (Ti Or Or)' and this song, I don't indulge in dialect songs. Btw my mom loves this song like hell...she was singing at the top of her voice when she SAW (I wonder what happens if she heard it) the title somewhere. haiz.
Sometimes I prefer oldies and even country songs to contemporary music. But I know nuts about guitar!!! *sobs* And my sis pissed me off that day when she told me they are learning guitar strumming in school instead of the lousy recorder...
FATE IS CRUEL!!!Speaking of which, I fancy a song called 'Inside of My Guitar'. Heard it before?
Inside of My GuitarBellamy BrothersNow there's a place I want to show youDon't you know it's not too farAnd there's a place I want to know youInside of my guitarIn my guitar there is a gardenWhere rainbows bloom and shine like starsIf you say no, I beg your pardonCome inside of my guitarI'll make you laughAnd make you singAnd we can play among the starsAnd we'll make loveDance beneath the stringsInside of my guitarNow there's a feeling that I'm afterSo please don't think my love's bizarreBut I hear music, girl and laughterInside of my guitar
If sadness cascades into your heart,
and lingers in doleful morass.
If happiness falters in shroud,
and leaves before grazing your brow.
Tell yourself...
This too, shall pass.
