Dokuritsu. Independence. Indipendenza.

Haaaa~. It was a great National Day holiday today~! I usually spend my National Day at home. Alone. Watching the TV. Eating Kentucky fried chicken. Staring out of my 15th storey apartment into the night wishing I’d utilized my day to its full potential. huuuuu…. (; – ; )
Laugh out loud!
Anyhooo, this year’s quite a whole new ball game~ Went out for a nice long dinner at Seoul Garden (I’m now basically adding my blog to a whole list of other blog sites when someone googles for ‘Seoul Garden’ lol.) with my secondary school friends. Well other than Grace and Dave, whom I basically see daily (bleagh.. hah! kidding. You know I love ya guys *hugz*), its been quite a while since I saw the others. *sigh*..
It was really great to see you guys man. We hung around the seaside and the Esplanade. Taking pictures. Telling jokes. Chilling. Reminiscing. haiii~ Ended the day with a shared ice latte from Starbucks or somethin’. Nice.. (It also resulted in a very hyper-active me. AT 1AM IN THE MORNING!. Bad move..)
Yeah. So. DAMMIT. I’m losing my flair for writing. Really. I can’t write anything for jack. It seems like I’m loosing my grasp of the English language. Noooo. Darn. I need to read. Maybe a short refresher course in Dicken’s Tale of Two Cities should suffice. Hmmm..
Yeap. So anyway! Here’s my promised piano rendition of the Final Fantasy X-2 track, Seal of the Wind ~The Three Trails~. Once again, keep in mind: I can’t read notes. I can’t play pedals. Everything was (de)composed by ear. lol. Took me 2 hours to decompose and 2 days to get used to the keys. (P.S. Ignore the ending. lol)

I leave you with this jazzy Japanese track by Minmi titled ‘Shiki no Uta’ (The Song of 4 Seasons).
Ja. Thats it yo. Back to restoring my grasp of the language. mmmmm…books. Byeee.
P.S. I got a small stint writing the backstory for a videogame meant for the XBox Live / PC! WooT! Lol.

Japanese people online, picking up more informal Japanese. Level? Nah..
