Onara


I would really like to upload this soundtrack but I couldn't find an mp3 version so I couldn't upload it to my webspace. I downloaded wma to mp3 converters but am having trouble using these softwares.

Just to give you some background on this drama, it's about a maid in a palace back in history. This song is actually a traditional Korean type of poem which includes some lines that has no meaning but just to make the poem sound more beautiful. What a great approach. I don't think we have this approach in our poems. It's always nice to learn new culture... :D especially when I love poems so much.. my close friends have read my poems.. I've even dedicated some to them... u know who u are ;)

Onara onara aju ona
Gadara gadara aju gana
Nanani daryeodo mot nonani
Aniri aniri ani none
Heiya diiya heiya naranino
Ojido mothana daryeogama
Heiya diiya heiyadara nino
Ojido mothana daryeogama

Come! Come! Come for good
   (If asked to come, will he really come to stay?)
Leave! Leave! Leave for good
   (If asked to leave, will he really go away?)
Day after day of waiting, cannot be together
   (Even if I wait forever, we still cannot be together)
No! No! It is not
   (No, It is not meant to be)
Since cannot come, take me
   (Since you cannot come here, take me there with you instead)
Since cannot come, take me
   (Since you cannot come here, take me there with you instead)

(If your really want to hear this song, just search it at youtube.. it's there.. I can't put that up b/c of course the MV shows the story.. I don't want to spoil it as I'm still in the middle of watching it :D)

Some things you can do, and some things you just can't
Saturday, March 24, 2007


I have to do some writings for my journal and essays for this humanities class I'm taking but I'm so reluctant to do so. The prof brought me down. hahah

My daddy told me, there are some things you can do and some you can't... you can't force yourself to do the things you just can't... that was how he tried to make me feel better when I complained about this stupid essay assignment I can't do well... haha... ever since I was little, I know never to tell my dad of my problems because instead of making me feel better, he would scold me... like the time he picked me up after school and I was complaining to him about this boy who keeps on bugging me, taking my water bottle and teasing me... instead of being on my defense he scolded me for being weak.. he said that boys will always tease you, you just have to face it yourself... ever since then, my mom is my shoulder to cry on :D

But of course, I love talking to my dad... he's hilarious, my IU frens know all about it... they read the letter he sent me... filled with jokes... :) me likey...

The night before the interview, he told me, "Pantang nenek moyang kite menangis mase interview" hahaaaaaaaa... as if my nenek moyang pegi interview! :D

Sorry, I'm writing bits and pieces about everything.. just felt like writing and since I have full authority of my blog, I can do it! :) bak kate Kak Engku n Ogy, "kalau tak suke, tolong tutup telinga" :)

I have a quiz for you guys. I got this from a Korean drama.. I think it's super funny ... hehe... So, a king's cook explained the reasons of only cooking a bear's right palm.. bears always reach for bee hives with their right palm and so the honey sticks to their right palm.. so that's why you want to cook the right palm... it's sweet... one student stood up and asked, "But why did you cook a bear's left palm last month?"

Guess people guess!

'raeB dednaH tfeL' (read it like jawi) :D

hehe I find it funny.. maybe it's the way I tell it that makes it sound lame... hehe

Is it all about time?
Sunday, March 11, 2007




Is it really time that matters? A 3 month relationship vs. a 2 year relationship, is it really quantity that matters? I thought it's always about quality... then why do ppl make fun of a short relationship?

If we were to meet someone we really like, for one day, wouldn't it worth more than 4 years knowing someone we like a little bit? Then is it still time that matters?

It's true that you might feel like u wasted a long time with a jerk... that you get so sad b/c u wasted all that time... but does that give you the right to claim that your sadness is more than others'? I might understand this if I were to go through it but I just feel like it's not always about time... it's about how deep you feel about it.. one person can spend 30 years with someone they don't really like but being able to spend only 1 year with someone they like, is worth a lot more... then is it still about time??

No, it's not about time... it's how you feel about it...

(don't get me wrong, this didn't come up b/c of the movie Cinta n that line in the movie... if u know what i mean... hahah)


Spring Break
Saturday, March 10, 2007


It's spring break y'all... so, as usual... korean drama marathon begins... this time, it's 'my name is kim sam soon'... I've watched so many Korean dramas but I think this one has lots of theories on life n love.... I feel it

the starting of the show gets to me... reminds me of sth... what was that? hahaa... From where I am in the show right now, it's progressing like all typical korean dramas, contract love... as much fun as that seems, it's too cliche... I can't believe even this one has a written contract... but that doesn't matter... I feel ya Kim Sam Soon... hahaa... I wish I can write down the philosophies in the script that I find amazing... I might have time for that once I'm done.... :)

Well.. looking forward to seeing my friends... seri's coming to town(yeay!) then I'm going to Lehigh(yeay!) and then to DC for interview(yeay!), after that back to schoollll... arghhh

for now.. let the marathon continue!!!
