Here's my first attempt at translating!! Do let me know if you think I've translated wrongly or there are any other errors. This is the song that I'm currently hooked on and it's the theme song from the j drama "Rondo".
夢見ているのは凍えた指先
yume metiru nowa kogoeta yubisaki
I see frozen finger tips in a dream
同じ朝は二人にはまだ届かない
onaji asa wa futari niwa mada todokanai
The same morning does not reach the two of us
昨日のどこかに残してきたもの
kinou no dokokani nokoshitekita mono
Leave those things somewhere in yesterday
心だけが目覚めない空に今探している
kokoro dake ga mezamenai sora ni ima sagashiteiru
Now searching in a sky where only the heart is not awake
さよなら、さよなら
sayonara, sayonara
Goodbye, goodbye
さよなら言うのは二度と廻らない悲しみに
sayonara iu no wa nido to meguranai kanashimini
Saying goodbye twice does not reduce the sorrow
光を知らない影などないから
hikari o shiranai kage nadonai kara
Don’t know of light because there is no shadow
愛のためにできる事がある
ai no tameni dekiru koto ga aru
There are things that can be done for the sake of love
並んで見えても離れた星たち
narande mietemo hanareta hoshi tachi
Lining up, seeing the stars that are leaving
時はどこえそれぞれの道を今消えている
toki wa dokoe sorezore no michi o kiereiru
The roads wherever in time, are now disappearing
さよなら、さよなら
sayonara, sayonara
Goodbye, goodbye
さよなら言うのは二度と流さない涙だけ
sayonara iu no wa nido to nagasanai namida dake
Saying goodbye twice only brings tears that cannot flow
触れ合う未来を信じているから
fure au mirai o shinjiteiru kara
We’ll be in contact because I believe in the future
愛は誰も見放さないから
ai wa dare mo mihanasanai kara
Because nobody can forsake love
虚しさに流されていかないで
munashisa ni nagasarete ikanaide
It is futile not to let it flow
さよなら、さよなら
sayonara, sayonara
Goodbye, goodbye
さよなら言うのは二度と廻らない悲しみに
sayonara iu nowa nido to meguranai kanashimini
Saying goodbye twice does not reduce the sorrow
光を知らない影などないから
hikari o shiranai kage nadonai kara
Don’t know of light because there is no shadow
愛のためにできる事がある
ai no tameni dekiru koto ga aru
There are things that can be done for the sake of love
I haven't posted for ages....I'm so tired and I've got loads of things to do. 1 presentation and 1 interview transcript to do by Monday. My project group wants to meet on Saturday 10 am (there goes my sleep) to discuss (is there anything else that we do need to discuss?). I"m horribly tired and I terribly need to do my papers!! I've got 5 freaking papers to write!! My ISM is due on the 5th of April, Mac's paper is due on the 7th, IPO paper due on the 10th while Simon's paper is due on the 13th!! May I give a good scream now?? The only paper that has words to it has to be my ISM. I find myself dedicating lots of time and energy to it while neglecting the rest. *sigh*
My friend (who is working) told me yesterday that school is much better than work cos you've got to work very hard in order to get better pay. Well, that really depends on the nature of the job and whether you like it or not, right? If you're in love with you job, I doubt you'll feel as if you're squeezing your life source in order to get more pay. Okies...I shall go off now and go do work. *sigh*

My eyes now hurt...I have no idea...and my right eye was itchy until I dripped a few drops of my eye drops. *sigh* I don't feel like writing my ISM. It's that lagging thingy again....ooh...found a spot in NUS that has free OSIM massage chairs!!! HAhaha...I shall go there to massage as often as I can!! :) Letitia and I went to eat Cheese Prata for dinner tonight...as usual, the curry wasn't spicy enough and there was a lot of MSG. I'm so thirsty now.
Hmm..I "discovered" a new band...haah...ok, they've been around since 1997 but I have recently discovered their music. They're a mix between undergound rock and mainstream music. I think they're technically very good...as in guitar/bass/drums. I can't find their mp3s anywhere and I think I can't be a pirate for them...have to buy their album!! That would be SGD30 something from me...and I've got to ask Ng Wei to get it for me when he goes to Japan. Yay!! At least there's someone going to Japan!! ;D

Bored? Stressed? Haha...then join me with having nail art!! Haha...yes..it's my latest obsession and my hands look rather wrinkly huh...hmm...need to moisturise!! those are my real nails btw...not those stick-on nails. The only things that are fake are the stars and crystals.
Anyway, on a more somber mood, let us all pray for Moon's grandmother as well as my uncle who has blood clots in his brain.
Yeah...we have finally decided on a place for our grad trip!! Cambodia! We're going to see Ang Kor Wat! (what?--> Letitia's reaction to "Ang Kor Wat") Yay...yippee...budget airfare is going to be about $120...still have to check out the expenses for hotel etc. Will have to consult my neighbour about that. Hmm...I need to start saving money. No new clothes for the next 3 mths, staying at home to eat (i.e. make parents buy food home) and charging everything else to my parents/brother (wahahaahah). We 7 samurais' grad trip!!! Wooot!!! HAha...ok...any non-JS people wanna join us??? Tentatively, we'll be going on the 25/26th May and we're planning to stay there for 5-7 days.
Yes, it's thursday..but yesterday was Ash Wednesday - the start of Lent - and I had such a full day. Let me begin my story in a chronological fashion.
12 noon - Went to Chatterbox (USP blk) to collect a book from classmate
12:30 pm- Went for class
3:40 pm - Class ended
4:00 pm - Finally managed to catch bus to student's place
4:45 pm - Reached Student's home.
Ok...let me moan about my student. *sigh* His problem is application and he doesn't really bother to think about what he writes on paper. His grammar sucks but what he writes on paper sounds totally different from what he speaks. He's untidy in his work. I now know why my teachers always write "Neat and conscientious student" in my report book. How can you organise your thoughts when writing them down is such a mess??!! There is only so much that I can teach him...application is very hard to 'teach'. I can tell him something but I'm very sure that he'll forget it immediately because he is too caught up with wanting to play. This guy has seriously TOO many toys, TOO many computer games and TOO many material stuff for him to think about anything else. I think children these days are too addicted to the telly that they've forgotten that there are so many good books out there to read. READ!! I share Oprah's concern about children not reading. And I get very irritated every week because my student just gives up so easily!! He knows the answer to the questions, it's just that he doesn't bother to link the knowledge that he knows with the question! Give him some application question and he'll immediately go, "I don't know!" Rubbish. He knows. He just doesn't know how to use his textbook knowledge. *sigh* I shall not rant anymore.
6:30 pm - ended lesson and went to Tanglin Mall for dinner
7:10 pm - rushed to the bus stop to go for Ash Wednesday mass
7:30 pm - mass
8:45 pm - mass ended...we waited for like 15 mins before a cab came. Stupid cab driver reminds me of my student. I said this: Uncle, Anchorage, OPPOSITE ikea. He heard: Ikea. Oh gosh...took such a LONG route home, which made my mum fuming mad.
9:05 pm - reached home. Changed my bag into my small one. Touched up my make-up and changed my shoes.
9:20 pm - left my house to catch a cab.
9:48 pm - finally managed to catch a cab. Apparently, taxis do not like my place after 9. They flock to Ikea instead. Damn them.
10:00 pm - reached Ministry of Sound (MOS) and met up with Sing and Kewei. DANCING TIME!!!
Ok...MOS is a lot better than Club Momo. The music is better, the transition of the songs were better and MOS did not repeat songs. The drinks in MOS were well mixed and tasted great. They have flair bartenders and they didn't look moody and hassled (think Club Momo). Retro Night was good...too bad R&B night is actually tonight (damn). I had my workout last night...haha!! I'll never wear 3.5 inch heels to club ever again. Seriously. Not very friendly to the knees.
Anyway, reached home at around midnight stinking of cigarette smoke. My tolerance for cigarette smoke has increased in terms of sinus...but my skin is still a wee bit sensitive. *scratch* But I'll definitely go clubbing again...once my exams are over!!! Who wants to join me??
