halloweenn

Happy halloween!!! I'm stuck at home researching on the homework sheik gave us =(. ok at least there's music to keep me company! I find that i dun understand alot of shoulder stuffs, especially the biomechanics. Everything's just more complicated with the scapula involved .haish. I feel like the school din really teach us biomechanics of shoulder or were we supposed to do that at our own time? i dunno. Over at Melbourne, they learnt anatomy and physiology for 2 years. For us, it's just all jam-packed. I didn't learn my anatomy well and i regret it. =/ haish. And i feel that biomechanics is like damn important for physiotherapist but unfortunately we were not grounded with all those knowledge. Damn physiotherapy should be a 5 year course! Not that i want to be stuck at NYP for 5 yrs la. But considering the shitload amount of knowledge we require, I tink 5 years is really needed to assimilate all these skills. It's just such a knowledge-intensive course. Sigh

Heavy in your arms

Heavy in Your Arms -Florence and the Machine

First heard this song off Twilight, "Eclipse" soundtrack and i absolutely love it. The lyrics are somewhat metaphorical and poetic and the melody is intense.


"Heavy In Your Arms"

I was a heavy heart to carry
My beloved was weighed down
My arms around his neck
My fingers laced to crown.

I was a heavy heart to carry
My feet dragged across ground
And he took me to the river
Where he slowly let me drown

My love has concrete feet
My love's an iron ball
Wrapped around your ankles
Over the waterfall

I'm so heavy, heavy
Heavy in your arms
I'm so heavy, heavy
Heavy in your arms

And is it worth the wait
All this killing time?
Are you strong enough to stand
Protecting both your heart and mine?

Who is the betrayer?
Who's the killer in the crowd?
The one who creeps in corridors
And doesn't make a sound

My love has concrete feet
My love's an iron ball
Wrapped around your ankles
Over the waterfall

My love has concrete feet
My love's an iron ball
Wrapped around your ankles
Over the waterfall

I'm so heavy, heavy
Heavy in your arms
I'm so heavy, heavy
So heavy in your arms

This will be my last confession
I love you never felt like any blessing
(Ohhhh)
Whispering like it's a secret
Only to condemn the one who hears it
With a heavy heart

Heavy heavy i'm so heavy in your arms
(i'm so) Heavy heavy i'm so heavy in your arms
(i'm so) Heavy heavy i'm so heavy in your arms
(i'm so) Heavy heavy i'm so heavy in your arms

I was a heavy heart to carry
my beloved was weighed down
My arms around his neck
My fingers laced to crown

I was a heavy heart to carry
But he never let me down
When he had me in his arms
My feet never touched the ground

I'm so heavy, heavy in your arms.

Heavy, i'm so heavy in your arms.

Another song that I'm absolutely in lov with is 'Mad World', both Aiden Grimshaw's and Adam Lambert's version. Lambert made the song very dark and thrilling. Aiden Grimshaw's version is goddamn intense! His trembling voice and mad-looking angst-filled eyes. He looks like he's having some kind of inner struggle, hiding something dangerous inside of him, like he's trying to supress and trembling because he couldn't hold it in him anymore. woah.. tt was really one breath-taking performance..

Aiden Grimshaw sings Mad World - The X Factor Live



It's sort of like Lambert brought sorrow and darkness to the song, beautiful and tragic, while Grimshaw shocked me with the intensity and the insanity. Both are great in their own ways.

Lambert's version

Enjoy!

i went to the salon then to the doc

Today I went to the salon near my house to dye my hair. This auntie told me it's 50bucks and i was like 'wow that's cheap!'. But den turns out she's a total cheater la. She put the colour on and stuffs she din even use those steamer to set the hair etc. worst part was when she was washing off the dyes etc she said '小妹你要做那个colorsilva (or watever shit it is called) 的东西吗 因为如果你不要做那个颜色会留在你的头皮会刺刺的,阻塞毛孔. She still have the face to tell me it's only 15 bucks. I was like walao u shld have told me from the start wat. just tell me its 65 bucks at the start lor. She say until liddat of cos u will want to do this stupid thing rite? -.- ZZZzzzZ cunning sia!! N this fanciful sounding procedure is just she put some conditioner thingy on my hair then walk out and came back to me then wash it off and it cost me additional 15bucks! wth lor. SHEESH

Then after tht went to see doctor cos the bump on my lip is gross looking and painful with pus oozing out. Doc say it's a coldsore caused by a Herpes Simplex Virus. I got it like right after the beach outing with classmate. Could be the sun (exposure to UV rays) or cld be the sharing of saliva i guess. hmm. Pharmacist say it takes about 14 days for it to heal but the process can be accelerated by the application of some cream. Haish n this kinda virrus is recurrent throughout your life, though the latent period between each attack is quite long. Think i got it before in JC or sec sch b4. cant rmb tho.

On a DARKER note, school is starting this coming MON. I'm so FRIGGIN DEPRESSED. ARGHHHHHHH hate studying ttm.

Bionic

I have been really into christina aguilera's latest album 'Bionic'' for quite some times álready cos it's a pretty interesting listen. Every song is so different and unique and you can see the shadow of the artist who co-wrote the song. Very distinctive styles there. Like for e.g. 'Elastic love is very M.I.A- ish, monotonous chanting. 'Desnudate' is a hooking song, very Christina's style,sensual with breathy chantings. This song is co-written by Tricky Steward who produced many hit songs. The tracks 'love and glamour'and 'glam'' is too cliche and she seem to be trying too hard to come up with cool phrases. ''Prima Donna'' is annoying and noisy, same with 'not myself tonight', very classless. 'My girls' is pretty cute, co-written by Le Tigre feat Peaches. Then there is the usual Linda Perry. 'Vanity'and Í hate boys'' is just plain annoying. ''Monday morning'' is one of my newer fav, written by the lead singer of The Bravery. I like their Án Honest Mistake'. Nice and interesting song there. Must listen! Some tracks were written by Sia Furler, like ''All I need '', ''I am'' and ''You lost me'' all i love!!! And yea Sia Furler has become one of my fav artist! She got some really awesome song. I think she got Graves disease tho. Aha n the song 'Birds of Prey'' and ''Little Dreamer'' written by LADYTRON!!!!!!! I love LADYTRON! they r so awesome. this 2 song is Great too! Sometimes I listen to some song and i wonder why some people are so genius in making such wonderful songs. ''Bobblehead'' at first seems annoying but it's actually a cute song. haha.

Overall, this album is good. Tho people say it's too messy and does not surround a central theme. Well, but i'm happy with enjoying the tracks indiividually. I know some people like to listen to the entire album as one whole entity . haha. I do agree there's too much shadow of other artists but sometimes when you put another person's voice into a particuar different style of music, it becomes a refreshing listen .

Monday Morning - A MUST LISTEN
