多看書多吃素 X 不約束不怕輸:新預言書

多看書

多看書多吃素

多看書多看書多種樹

多看書多看書多看書多寬恕

多看書多看書多看書多看書多傾述

 

多看書多看書多看書多看書不約束

多看書多看書多看書不怕輸

多看書多看書不投訴

多看書不超速

不裝熟

 

成長 理想

失落 沮喪

但我們會走下去

燃油被抽乾 河流極骯髒
心裡一個天使在哪方
繁華換饑荒 熔岩撞教堂
再見烏托邦
看赤子出世 被瓦礫安葬

若我活到多一日 還是要珍惜一日
置身廢墟更需每天發掘
未到末世安息日
是向理想整裝待發
青春的固執 相信… 相信…

遺傳病加速 孩童在抽蓄
佳節想慶祝那樣慶祝
謠言在歪曲 明日便結束
聽棄嬰痛哭 woo…
每句時代曲 亦聽到怨曲

若我活到多一日 還是要珍惜一日
置身廢墟更需每天發掘
未到末世安息日
還是向理想整裝待發
青春的固執 固執的奉信 無限隻白蟻 改變大人物
要用我自己的方法掙扎
無論明日這個天太黑

在最混賬的今日 還是過得多充實
每天有新見識有新怪物 就算上帝也哭泣
只不過信衪要感動我 存在多一刻 對生命固執

萬能俠舊日伴隨自己 屋企通處飛
七歲幾膽敢預言自己 操一艘戰機
但到一定年紀 經不起經濟起飛
放下志氣 喜中帶悲

萬能俠大熱漸成歷史 彷彿一世紀
穿梭機附運舊時夢想 升空中跌死
為了生活而放棄 要奮鬥來贏盡厚利
世界是大人遊戲 那幼稚預言誰緊記

*時光機 留給你 回憶裡 誰帶路
假使間給你再做 問你又會否寄望更高
傻瓜機 留給你 誰歡笑 誰憤怒
想當初預言無數 世界有太多變數

萬能俠昨日熱誠隊友 通通隱了居
新世紀福音熱潮動畫 一早不再追
面對生活流水 天真給幾次榨取
往日戰友 一一退隊

不記得夢幻樂園地址 消失於市區
一箱箱護衛地球漫畫 安息於廢墟
習慣失望和氣餒 有勇氣原來亦有罪
已到達大人年歲 那偉大預言無根據

REPEAT*

時光機 留給你 回憶裡 朋友號
只懂得欺騙細路 奉勸別太早仰望太高
傻瓜機 留給你 誰苦戰 誰卻步
青春的預言無數 有那個信守到老

要 背負個包袱 再 跳落大峽谷
煩惱 用個大網將你捕捉
還是你 拋不開拘束
你 昨夜發的夢 到這夜已告終
沉下去 頭上散落雨點沒有彩虹
你 還在抱著記憶 就似塊石頭很重

*得到同樣快樂 彼此亦有沮喪
童話書從成長中難免要學會失望
經過同樣上落 彼此墮進灰網
沉溺 煩擾 磨折 何苦 多講*

我 快樂到孤獨 我 缺乏到滿足
遊戲 就算愉快不會幸福
人大了 開心都想哭
我 每日要生活 我 每日要鬥苦
捱下去 連上帝亦也許沒法攙扶
我 前路有右與左 面對抉擇難兼顧

REPEAT*

擁有同樣寄望 彼此亦有苦況
棉花糖從成長中曾送你愉快天堂
經過同樣跌盪 可會學會釋放
童話 情書 遺書 尋找 答案
曾經...曾經...回憶當天三歲的波板糖

End of The Month X Dark of The Moon: Socialization Mode

it has been two weeks

since the semester ended

but break doesn’t start yet

since I chose to stay back

and participate in the 3 weeks

intra-faculty major portfolio project

 

out of all the fields I can choose

no

I didn’t go into photography or writing

a totally new one

advertising and design

 

picking up something new apart

but the sad thing is

where the photography, film and even writing

people are out to the street

to collect materials

 

we spend the hell 3 weeks

in the lab

sketching, and Adobe-ing

 

and hanging out

with the new people

sort of brings change to my routine as well

 

yesterday

ended up in Sunway Pyramid

since one of them is looking for

some materials for the project

 

couldn’t find it at Sunway

then back-to-back

The Gardens

the huge art store at level 3

 

then headed to MPH

at Mid Valley

and I stole some time

to check out MNG

still a crowd

despite being a Tuesday night

me in my nautical romper

 

and 11pm

still hanging out at Starbucks

that’s totally so not me

green tea latte

 

then today

the fun continues

pizza delivery to school

and eating them right away in the lab

pizza

 

after “work”

it’s Sunway Pyramid again

unbelievable

they actually got first row tickets for 3D

movie tickets

 

for the first time

I am broke

not because of shopping

and at one point of time

I was only left with rm 5

and had to run to ATM 

 

I guess

there is always a cost to pay

in order to mingle around with new friends

socialization cost

 

economically.. obviously

and non tangible one like

following the majority

and do thing that I don’t even like to

eg:

watching a high rating movie (first row)

hanging out at high-end café

dinner at 12 a.m.

 

I miss my kitchen already

and my bed where I am most comfortable at

that’s me

what to do but

that’s just me

 

there are time

you do things

when you are in the mood to

but also

the time where

mechanically speaking

you are put in the mode to

Ultra Heat Treatment X Pasteurization: Milk Classification

Ultra Heat Treated Milk (UHT)

Pasteurized Fresh Milk

The UHT process ensures total microbial and enzyme inactivation, because the milk is heated up to 150 °C for 5 seconds.

The pasteurisation process heats milk to 70 – 75 °C for 15 seconds, inactivating or killing all of the disease-producing microorganisms in milk while preserving most of the nutritional value of milk.

Rumor has it that the McDonalds's McFlurries are made with UHT milk. It's also rumored that UHT milk is the kind of milk served on planes and trains. Neither rumor can be confirmed but if a milk product has a label, you may be surprised as to which type of milk you're drinking when you inspect that label.

The flavour of pasteurised milk is more similar to that of fresh milk than that of UHT milk. This is due to a certain caramelisation of milk sugar that happens in the UHT processing.

UHT milk, on the other hand, has a shelf life of six to nine months at room temperature. Once opened and refrigerated, that shelf life reduces to a few days, but then it's already being consumed.

Dairy fresh milk has a very limited shelf life requiring refrigeration and usually only for few days. Dairy fresh milk will go bad in the refrigerator even if unopened, within two weeks.

 

Although pasteurisation or UHT

may result in small loses

in some of these vitamins (below 20% on average),

this will have a negligible effect on

the nutritional value of a balanced diet.

Vitamin losses resulting from processing are

sometimes offset by the addition of vitamins.

Some milk is also enriched with multiple vitamins.

full cream vs low fat

Full-fat milk contains considerable quantities of

vitamin A, B and D and calcium.

Semi-skimmed or skimmed milk contain

the same levels of proteins, calcium, magnesium,

phosphorous, potassium and zinc and B vitamin

as full-fat milk,

but the amount of vitamin A and D

is either halved or almost non-existent.

 

me?

I drink both…

but back in hostel

I drink more of UHT milk

since it’s the only way to ensure

I have a constant supply of milk

 

and here I go

experiment different things with milk

Milkee Coffee

Power Oat Milk

 

and Stephelle’s Kitchen Sweet Surprise

still in the fridge

will be served later as my

Sunday Night Dessert

Power Blow X Energy Flow: Five Elements in Hero

電影《英雄》之五行:

純屬個人意見,

絕無侮辱電影之意

sorry if you find these are sheer craps

Hero movie poster

 

The representation of the Five Elements 五行

is manifested throughout the movie.

The elements are:

  • 水 Water
  • 火 Fire
  • 木 Wood
  • 土 Earth
  • 金 Metal

水 Water

is significant in the fighting scene of

無名 Nameless and 長空 Long Sky in the rain.

Swift movements in the rain are magnified to

illustrate the speed of the fighters.

 

When rain drops fall onto different surfaces and

make the tickling sound,

time stands still and

the fight transformed into

a psychological fight between the two minds.

 

When the sword finally penetrates through rain droplet,

the ultimate prowess is liberated and

there 長空 Long Sky loses the fight and his life.

the fatal move

 

It brings out the message of water,

being a tranquil yet powerful element of life.

Similar message is brought out in

the fighting scene between

無名 Nameless and 殘劍 Broken Sword as well.

 

火 Fire

is the element of bravery, determination and passion.

秦王 The King makes a metaphor between

無名 Nameless’ determination to assassinate him with

the oil lamps surrounding them.

When the light from the lamps becomes dim,

秦王 the King senses the swing in

無名 Nameless’ determination as well.

 

The element of Fire is also indirect represented in

by red clothing.

Back to the calligraphy school,

the young students and

their old calligraphy teacher who

defend themselves with courage are

all donned in red.

 

木 Wood

which is pretty much linked to the art of 書法 calligraphy.

殘劍 Broken Sword has been practicing calligraphy

with a long wooden stick and

hence masters a special skill in sword

through his calligraphic work.

the calligraphy

 

Just like the old calligraphy master and

his students who stay back and

continue writing despite

the massive arrow attack which

ultimately kills them all.

 

It goes on to reflect the resistance and

perseverance of

the 木 Wood element.

 

Earth

is exemplified in a particular death scene.

human is part and parcel of the earth,

therefore after death,

human dissolves into dust and

shall return to the mother Earth.

 

in juxtaposition with

塵歸塵、土歸土

ashes to ashes,

and dust to dust;

in the sure and certain hope of

the resurrection unto eternal life……

 

The death of 如月 Moon in the forest

illustrates this philosophy.

She fell onto the ground,

buried in the fallen leaves.

It implies the amalgamation with the earth

symbolizes the ending of life.

returning to the Earth

 

金 Metal

is represented by sword.

Metal is solid yet sharp.

The positive attributes of metal are

firmness, strength and determination.

 

無名 Nameless, the master of sword

has all the attributes of metal.

To him, sword is more than just a weapon;

it embraces the swordsmanship and pride in him.

Finally he gives up the assassination and

the hatred in himself although

he has got all the opportunity to put the King to death.

Nameless & sword

 

On top of the Five Elements mentioned as above,

the representation of other natural elements

can be found in the names of the characters.

 

For example,

飛雪 Flying Snow indicates

her cold and capricious personality.

She would go at all costs to achieve her goals,

including killing her loved one.

 

On the other hand, the character,

如月 Moon holds certain spiritual characteristics of the moon.

She seems to be insignificant at times,

but she is the only loyal servant

who is always there for her master.

 

in conclusion

Just like how the main story goes,

there is no absolute theory of right versus wrong.

We would not say that the King is wrong

for all the killings he has done,

since the ultimate aim is

to unify the country. A

ll human are seeking for is

a balance of the different elements in life.

Cutting Words X Looking Forward: 22nd TW-Golden Melody Awards

haven’t been following

Taiwanese Mandarin Pop for quite awhile

listening to my favourite artists

on selective basic

 

and i mean

yeah i have certain personal grudges

against the whole awards organization itself

because they let Gary Chau betting Khalil Fong

how could they?

OMG..  i will never get over it like forever

 

franking speaking

long long awards presentation

sometimes can get quite tiring

especially the speeches

by the hosts, the awards presenters

and finally the award recipients

 

but anyway

i still follow the awards over the years

2008 - 19th GMA

2010 - 21st GMA

 

but over the past 10 years

i learn to focus less on the results

instead as a lesson

as my quick “crash course” class

on what’s going on in the Taiwan music industry

 

and quick browse

through the nominees’ lists

to see whether there are any good albums

which i kinda miss out

 

best example,

A-Lin,

the nominee for best female vocal

i don’t really know who she is frankly

except vaguely remember her first song

until so many sharing on FB

practically becoming the talk of the whole show

although she didn’t win

 

and just enjoy the show

especially the performances

something i particularly enjoy during awards

medleys..

給自己的歌 / 縱貫線

 

well,

this is my first time hearing it, actually

i must say..

it’s very Jonathan Lee

anyway of course

he is like the legend of the

late 80’s to early 90’s

for the whole Mandarin music industry

 

but does this song actually

deserves the whole 3 awards

i don’t know

 

and not to miss it

congrats to Jay Chou

there’s no surprise he will win

yet there’s not too much debate

whether he deserves it

because he is simple the king

 

this is not exactly my favourite album of 2010

but one of my favourite of all his albums

好久不見的周杰倫

周杰倫 《跨時代》

 

last but not least

韋禮安 William Wei !!!

韋禮安 William Wei

 

he still looks boyish then ever

end of the year

the army call

so how long do we have to wait

for the next album??

but there is rumour saying that

the new album will be released

right before the break

William Wei 02

 

but for the time being

have to satisfy myself listening to his live album

兩腳書櫥的逃亡演唱會Live 

 

and Yen-J

another cute and talented one

but what to do if

there can only be one winner

people just can’t help comparing them huh
