I do not blog about my life. This is a journal of random thoughts of whatever interests me.
A temporary spot of existence where memories are stored for a period of time until they are forgotten...

Piglet sidled up to Pooh from behind. "Pooh", he whispered.
"Yes, Piglet?"
"Nothing," said Piglet, taking Pooh's paw, "I just wanted to be sure of you."
~ Winnie the Pooh quote


Translations are always unlocked. Posts that touch upon real life & studies will be locked.
A recurrent theme of sorts, what 70% of most posts will be about:

Chinese Lyrics translations
  • What this journal was formed first and foremost for.
  • Why do I do them?: (1) for practice (2) I enjoy musing over the poetic nature of language [read ~ dancing with the dead by Red Pine].
  • Despite all, languages have never been my strong point :) I'm very much a science student.
  • 2 ways to look for translations: (1) tag: *lyrics translation: from chinese (2) tags: artist names. *NEW* An index list for your convenience.
  • I'm always more than happy to take requests, please leave a comment on this post with the song title.

Music (Chinese/Japanese), Dramas (Chinese/Japanese), Quotes

  • I love music. And I love lyrics. [Follow my music recommendations at one_tune]
  • I watch dramas for the unrealisticness.
  • I think finding a good quote can be the best thing that has happened in a day.

YUZU (Japanese folk duo band)
  • A heading on it's own because they are awesome!

Super Junior (Korean)
  • I'm a Cloud (Yesung fan) more than anything.

JE fandom
  • V6: For reasons even I am not very sure off. [Check out Vi6es' V6 English subbed releases at 1995_to_forever].


"Would you tell me, please, which way I ought to go from here?"
"That depends a good deal on where you want to get to," said the Cat.
"I don’t much care where--" said Alice.
"Then it doesn’t matter which way you go," said the Cat.
"--so long as I get SOMEWHERE," Alice added as an explanation.
"Oh, you’re sure to do that," said the Cat, "if you only walk long enough."
~ Alice's Adventures in Wonderland, Chapter 6

I checked your site after you left your comment on one of my entries, and I think you have such a pretty blog. :) Made me wonder how you've come across mine. :P I see you're really into Yesung. Nice meeting you by the way! :)

Oh hai :D I'm glad to see you here too! Thanks for the compliment *feels all warm inside* I do like Yesung, but I've only been in the K-Pop fandom 1-2 months? haha. It's a bit misleading really, because there are in-between posts that are locked. Although you can say it's a new infatuation so I do tend to ramble a lot on him at the moment XD My mainstay is still Cpop and Jpop, plus the random varieties you see above. I found your blog while searching for SS3 fanaccounts, specifically those that focus favorably on Yesung. haha. Thanks again, have a lovely day~

You're welcome! Thank you for liking my translation of the song :)

My medical course in university is 6 years. This journal is my hold of sanity through the process. 31 dec 2012 marks the end of my final year in university and everything changes again afterthat ^^

I adore kyusung, I enjoy watching their interactions. I really liked the imagery in your story :)

If you hover over the link 'the day you stop' on my side bar it will direct you to the original post. The words are not mine, I'm sure you can use it as inspiration for your fic ♥
