sista sången

the last song - x japan

Watching the stars till they're gone
like an actor all alone
who never knew the story he was in
who never knew the story ends
like the sky reflecting my heart
all the colours become visible
when the morning begins
I'll read the last line

* owaranai ame dakishimeta yoru ga asa wo mukaeru
kokoro wa mada nureta mama

(translation: embracing this fine intermittent rain
night moving towards dawn
but the heart has already been drenched)

in endless rain, I've been walking
like a poet feeling pain
tryin' to find the answers
tryin' to hide the tears
but it was just a circle
that never ends
when the rain stops, I'll turn the page
the page of the first chapter

# kizu tsuku dake kizu tsuite wakatta hazu no kotae wo
doushite mada toikaketeru?
(translation: still being hurt
the answers that should have been understood
why persist with the questions?)

am I wrong to be hurt
am I wrong to feel pain
am I wrong to be in the rain
am I wrong to wish the night won't end
am I wrong to cry
but I know, it's not wrong to sing The Last Song
cause forever fades...

ki ga tsukeba mata hitori yoru no sora wo mitsumeteru
sukoshi zutsu kieteyuku OUR MEMORIES
(translation: just having discovered something
nevertheless yet again gazing the night sky alone
slowly they vanish and fade away OUR MEMORIES)

I see red
I see blue
but the silver lining gradually takes over
when the morning begins
I'll be in the next chapter

today, tomorrow and thursday

my last three days in sweden wei~~~
sweden.
sweden...
sweden.....
when i take myself out of my own life and look at it, sweden still sounds mystical somehow ^^ my sincere gratitue to those who make these two exhilarating years a reality, not mentioning those who gave me their blessings and supported me throughout :)

karin: what do you like best in sweden?
asa: hm... there are so many things i dont know which one to choose from. ak, right, it's probably the nature!
karin: aaah... javisst (ofcoz)! (then she started to go on and on about how beautiful is norway's landscape instead.../swt)

the woods surrounding the härlanda lake has kept me stay put in this same basement which has no doubt become a cozy home throughout my time here. the nature, with some help from the weather, has turned me into a walker. i hardly spend a week without walking more than an hour at a time. i hardly spend a week without venturing into the woods also ^^ my visitors too, get to have a taste of the nature as slottskogen (the castle forest), härlanda woods, and the islands have proven to be among the most-popular-destinations-asa-likes-to-lure-ppl-to :P

karin also wanted to know what do i hate most in sweden. but since she turned the topic to norway, i din hav to answer it XD anyway, i do have an answer to that. an easy one for me. the distance, away from people dearest to me. easy hey?

today, i shall do the second round of cleaning to make my room gleam and sparkle, do the last round of laundry, and stay away from food that might make me sick XD
tomorrow, i shall give away and post away everything that would be useful...
thursday, i shall do the final round of cleaning to make my room whitewahsed ="= no, juz some final touches... and final packing, and... yup, need to say goodbye to the woods :)
