Yellowcard- Roungh Landing, Holly

Best. Music. Video. Ever.

Left the ground in black and white
And when the plane went down
The colours all around
I know by now, the margin's slight
And still I can't get out
She's all I think about
Can’t let her go
It's who you know

(Chorus)
We came down to watch the world walk by
And all she found was trouble in my eyes
From the sky she pulled me down tonight
Let her go, let her go

She moves fast, takes control
And like a heart attack I know I can't turn back
And time just passed, nights moved slow
And she was all I had
I thought I’d never last
Can’t let her go
It's who you know

(Chorus)
We came down to watch the world walk by
And all she found was trouble in my eyes
From the sky she pulled me down tonight
Let her go

Let her go

We came down to watch the world walk by
And all she found was trouble in my eyes
From the sky she pulled me down tonight

She calls out the farther that I fly
I love that sound so give me one more line
From the sky she pulled me down tonight
Let her go, let her go,
Let her go, let her go 

Faith

To be REALLY honest, I'm no religious person. Not that I don't believe in God, but I rarely practice the observances a Christian should do, like church going on Sundays, well verse about the Bible and so on.

But what I want to discuss here is not this type of belief, rather the belief in people in general: faith. Do YOU trust the people you know and love? Why?

You know, people are meant to be living in communities. We just don't thrive on our own, we just don't. We need to rely on other people to make a functional life. So we put trust in people so that they can fulfill our needs, whether it is physical, emotional or psychological.

Somehow we can put a lot of trust in people, especially those who are out there to harm us. We can't trust people who betray, lie, cheat and hurt our feelings.

So it's kinda tricky: how much faith we have in people?
Try this, you need a friend/lover/family member/someone who you really trust:
1. Stand in front of him/her
2. Close your eyes, arms spread out
3. Fall back towards him/her
4. See if he/she catches you

The results can be an eye-opening.

Just because the grass is greener

Just because the grass is greener on the other side of the fence.......

People don't feel that they are that great anymore.
They are not happy
They want more
They become greedy
They got it to keep them happy.

Just because someone is better than you......

You are jealous
You wish you are in his place
You either try to achieve it yourself
Or ruin his life to make yourself feel better.

Just because they have what you don't......

You dream of having it
You try to get it
by hook or by crook

Just because he is loved and you don't......

You become envious
You just want to be loved as well

Just because you don't have what you wish......

Just be happy for what you already have!

Changes

I recently had an insane discussion with someone about this.

Change: An inevitable process someone will face in life.

Change is for the better then it's great. It throws you out of your comfort zone, forces you to tryout something new. Soon you'll face difficult challenges, experienced things you have never imagined.

Is it for the good? Yea. It improves what we had right now. It makes us see differently, encountering our problems much more efficiently. There are also many things can be changed for the better. It might solve the hassle and problems we face currently, and people benefit from the changes made.

Is it bad? It's true too. People are so used to things they like. People just prefer familiarity, or some would say "the better the devil you know". People worried that change might turn out bad, causing more problem than solving them. Maybe sticking to the trusted, tried and true ways on how our life works is not that bad after all.

So do we resist change forever? We can't. Because then our life would be boring, lack of variety, mundane and sooner or later we'll get sick of it. So it's nice to change once in a while.

So when do you change? That leaves you to decide.

Generations

There is a new addition to the family: A new puppy! It's a 2-month old German Shepard, and my we decided to call him Rocky. (Though I strongly against it, since the name is too generic for a male German Shepard)

Cute, eh? Credit my sister for this picture.

Having him in the family really changed things around the house. More noise, chaos, barking and all. Since a lot of attention is diverted to the new needy pup, our current dog is starting to feel envious. Heh, Brownie, you are 10 years old now, and you don't really care if we called you unless we feed you. Now you want our attention back just as the good old days when you're a puppy yourself?

We will know someday Brownie may leave us and Rocky will become the apprentice for the guarding our home. Or maybe Brownie may decide to relax and let Rocky to do the job (You lazy bum!). It's kind of a generational shift. Guess life as dogs are almost like people. Eventually what you are doing right now will be taken over by someone else.

This is my sis and the old dog Brownie for my photography assignment. I still remember he refuse to cooperate when we were taking the picture.

People come and go, but life remains the same for a lot of people. We may have new technologies to help us make life easier, but life in other aspects is still the same: work, learn, make friends, fall in love, starting a family....

My parents are expecting us to bring home the bacon once after we graduate. Soon we'll be taking over dad for the earning money role. Life goes on, so live it to the fullest while doing the same old same old, people!

Sara Bareilles - Love Song

Head under water
And they tell me to breathe easy for a while
The breathing gets harder, even I know that
You made room for me but it's too soon to see
If I'm happy in your hands

I'm unusually hard to hold on to
Blank stares at blank pages
No easy way to say this
You mean well, but you make this hard on me
I'm not gonna write you a love song
'cause you asked for it
'cause you need one, you see

I'm not gonna write you a love song
'cause you tell me it's
Make or break in this
If you're on your way
I'm not gonna write you to stay
If all you have is leaving I'm gonna need a better
Reason to write you a love song today

I learned the hard way
That they all say things you want to hear
And my heavy heart sinks deep down under you and
Your twisted words,
Your help just hurts
You are not what I thought you were
Hello to high and dry
Convinced me to please you
Made me think that I need this too
I'm trying to let you hear me as I am

I'm not gonna write you a love song
'cause you asked for it
'cause you need one, you see
I'm not gonna write you a love song
'cause you tell me it's
Make or break in this
If you're on your way
I'm not gonna write you to stay
If all you have is leaving I'm gonna need a better
Reason to write you a love song today

Promise me that you'll leave the light on
To help me see with daylight, my guide, gone
'cause I believe there's a way you can love me
Because I say
I won't write you a love song
'cause you asked for it
'cause you need one, you see

I'm not gonna write you a love song
'cause you tell me it's make or break in this
Is that why you wanted a love song
'cause you asked for it
'cause you need one, you see
I'm not gonna write you a love song
'cause you tell me it's make or break in this
If you're on your way
I'm not gonna write you to stay
If your heart is nowhere in it
I don't want it for a minute
Babe, I'll walk the seven seas when I believe that
There's a reason to
Write you a love song today

And oh, Have a great April Fool's Day
