Day 59 - Solamente si tú sabíendo...

"At times,
I feel as though I am something just next to wind.

Sometimes,

I think I am something no more than dust."



My voice,
silenced volition, to the loudness of your pride.
My love,
dimming glow, to the brightness of your light.
My pace,
baby steps, to the speediness of your stride.


How am I ever gonna keep up?


Sometimes,
I feel as though this is like
A masquerade for you, a massacre for me...
I'm dying, over and over again
before your mask of coldness.


How am I ever gonna survive?



And still again, this night,
you haunt my dreams with the air of a master,
And still I am, this day,
waking up with tears streaming,
all from this gaping hole of loss.
Credits: Afaust

How am I gonna mend it?


And it's all about you, all about you...


"en los que tú me decías,
ya juntos toda la vida;
pues para mi, la vida no es vida,
si tú no estás junto a mí..."


If only you knew...

What are people going to do?

Using both positive and negative characteristics, describe what six people are going to do and what they are doing: a woman, a man, a girl, a boy, you and me. Ex. The man is going to buy a car. The woman is not buying flowers.


El hombre va a viajar en el automóvil. No va a caminar. No va a ir en la bicicleta tambien.

La mujer y la niña están en la mesa. La mujer va a comer, no está comiendo. Pero la niña no va a comer, está satisfecha.

El niño no va a jugar, está enfermo. Así que el está durmiendo en la cama.

Tengo el cabello corto ahora. Espero tener el cabello largo en el futuro.

¿Qué vas a hacer? Voy a sentarme en el sofá. No voy a correr, estoy cansada.

¿Qué va a hacer ella? Ella va a comprar un libro y leerlo en la mesa marrón.

Te voy a subir por la escalera. No estás parado en la escalera.

¿Qué va a hacer él? El va a comprar las flores rojas en la caja por el esposo. El espera el esposo esta feliz.

No te voy a escribir sobre la mesa, voy a leer un periódico en la silla.

Viva La Español !!!

Sí. My Spanish is pretty much alive again, after it's deep slumber for like, how many months?

(though self-learning is slow as a snail... and my Spanish is still at the stage of like, standard 1 or 2 English?! Sigh, sigh, sigh... ) *Been working on it... Gotta have patience!*

Well, at least I can write simple 50 words paragraphs decribing people, things, what people are doing etc... and err, simple self-introduction... anyway, I'm loving it all the same!!!

Me encanta, me encanta!


Yes, I have a thing for Spanish. I actually love the languages. Spanish, Chinese, English...
I'm more of a language person I suppose, which explains why I can still get into the top positions during secondary school even with not-so-good results (Awww man, I can barely scrape an A2) in my Add Maths (urgh...) and Chemistry (Double urgh...).


Too bad these are like the 2 out of 3 core subjects I'm taking now in A-Levels...
*Yea yea yea, great luck! *


Sigh, guess I'll just have to work extra hard on them. Gotta tackle them, tackle them. Thank God at least Biology lets me breathe a little... ~Ahhh~


Which reminds me; OMG !!! Externals coming in 1 MONTH'S TIME !!!

OMG OMG OMG... I'm always chasing after time...


Neways, before I get back to nerding, let me
practise a little on my Spanish... ^_^

Exercise 1 :

Using both positive and negative characteristics, describe what six people are doing:


La mujer está durmiendo en la cama morada. No está sentado en el sofá rojo. El hombre está comiendo la comida en la mesa marrón. No está comiendo los dulces sobre la caja blanca. Las niñas están jugando sobre la cama anaranjada. No están corriendo. El niño está bebiendo en la silla. No está sentado en el sofá. Las flores son moradas y están sobre la mesa verde, no sobre la cama negra. Él no está caminando, está parado. No estoy sonriendo. Estoy llorando. Estoy leyendo un libro en la silla. No estoy escribiendo con bolígrafo en la mesa.


To all pro people out there, please review for me if you all have the time!
Gracias in advance!

What Sem Break Means?

So, do you know what sem breaks mean to me?


Here we go...



1. Dancing, dancing and more dancing!!!

Finally, Sifu, here I come!!!
OMG I've been yearning for the long holidays to come all these time. I juz can't let myself carry on like that, as in not progressing in my dance and all. It makes me feel like such a procrastinator. I'm wasting my time. If it goes on like that, my dreams will never be achieved.


Routines---basic steps, locks, spins, swivels, chasses, splits, rolls, time steps, underarm turns, sliding doors, cucurachas, spot turns and all... Wow, I've got so much to catch up on. To learn new routines, to brush up my old ones.


Skill, posture, style, emotion, expression, interaction with the floor etc... too bad I don't have a partner just yet. It'll be easier to learn with one. Bigger progress compared to doing solo. Sigh... But guess I should juz have to put up with my current situation.


I'm in a standstill now, so lotta catching up to do. (stress, stress, stress) Not improving much either on my old routines, so Sifu, please be patient with me!



2. Time to have some fun!!!

Yupz, what's holiday without having fun?! Have lotta plans up my sleeves.

- Indulge myself on a shopping spree... that's a must must. ^-^
- Online as long as I want. Have a whole list of songs I wanna download, a whole lot of movies I wanna stream...
- Go jogging and swimming and playing ping pong, badminton, basketball... or juz running about burning calories. Gotta work those abs and lose some fat. And who says sports aren't fun? (though I'm not particularly good in them)
- Wake up as late as 12 noon!!! Seriously, that's some luxury that not anyone else can have, you know...
- Stay in bed reading a book... Luxurious!!! Fantastico!!!
- Eat anything I want. I've been making a mental list of food I wanna eat when sem break is in. (Juz hope it won't add inches to my waist!!!) Yum yum, juz at the prospect of thinking about it...



3. Blogging as much as I can.


See why I'm here almost everyday? Since lotta extra time lately, so I can utilize them fully by uh... ranting here. Sorry people, hafta bear with mua... *winks*




4. Work my Spanish.


Estudio, estudio, estudio español!
Something to do if I have the resources. And when I am in a NERDy mood, but didn't want to face chemistry juz yet. Gonna get a good Spanish book when I have the money.



5. Just spend time with you...

You, you, you and you... *grins*



Have a lot more but...
Tata for now!!!
Till the next time...
