Hey there.
I figure I haven't updated anything about my life for long enough.

First things first.

10. "皮影戲" (Pí Yǐng Xì Shadow Puppetry)
11. "超跑女神" (Chāo Pǎo Nǚ Shén The Goddess of Race)

How epic is that?
Sadly, I haven't had the chance to purchase one copy for myself..yet.
Since I'm a pirate, I've listened to every song in it.

The first two tracks introduced to me were "驚嘆號" and "Mine Mine". I have to be honest: I was pretty disappointed when I listened to them for the first time.
(Okay, here comes the know-it-all bitching)
As for "驚嘆號", maybe it's because I'm not a big fan of Chinese-rock songs and the poor quality of the sample song I found didn't help either.
Whereas "Mine Mine" on the other hand, is pretty easy on ear. I like the music. But then again, Jay decided to autotune the whole song, and I was like, 'WTF Jay, your voice sounds brilliant without all those artificial touches.'

However after the album was released and after I listened to all the tracks, I've decided, I LOVE the album.

I mean, are you kidding, the whole album has been on repeat on my playlist for like the whole day. (Some of my contacts must have noticed it.)
(Don't worry, I WILL BUY the album.)

My favorite song by far is "你好嗎".
Its mellow melody and simple yet deep lyrics manage to get me. :)
And of course, Jay always manages to sing sad songs so well that it (almost) always touches my heart. (Over-dramatic much?)

Following closely is "公主病", the melody of which is pretty similar to "陽光宅男" (a song from his past album "我很忙", well...Jay himself has demonstrated it actually, far before the makings of the album.

The lyrics of "公主病" are so fluffy that I melted the moment I learned about it..almost literally. It should be illegal for someone his age to be so cute!

The other songs, they're good, but they haven't struck me as hard as the two above do..yet.

In conclusion: All in all, I love the album.
Jay NEVER disappoints me.
(But then again, I always love the songs made by Jay..)
(And then again, I was a tad bit shocked when I first heard about his so-called marriage..I'm not going to lie: I was depressed, devastated. Fanatic much?)

So, about my day today..
The whole day went just fine, nothing too bad nor too good happened.
My EB (English for Business) lecturer handed us back our individual feedbacks on our previous assessments. The feedbacks aren't mandatory for the lecturers, she just chose to provide us with some. Thank her.
At first when I read the words 'Well done!', 'Good Job!' etc in the feedback paper, needless to say I almost jumped up and down in excitement.
But after reading through some of my friends' feedbacks which contain almost similar words, I started to doubt the ambiguity meaning behind the words.
Is she trying to console us, who didn't do as well as the others?
Or does that mean the work we did is sufficient?

...I doubt it.

Anyhow, nothing else of importance emerges.
However, my journey back today wasn't as enjoyable as the other days.
First of all, the bus was fully packed. I tried to wriggle out when I realize my friend couldn't get in, but I was roughly shoved by the bus' entrance door. Thankfully I didn't get squeezed (to death by the door) or something.

When we arrived at the next stop, the driver didn't even bother to inform me that he was going to open the door. I mean hello? Am I supposed to notice anything with my back facing the door, I obviously couldn't see a thing.
If I wasn't wrong, the other drivers did make a short announcement when they were about to do so..
And what was he thinking? We could barely move and he still expected more passengers to ride? Come on, at least let the passengers alight first, won't you?

In the end, my right slipper was stuck..under the door. I struggled to get it back (and I believe some people outside the bus watched me did so) before quickly made my way to the body of the bus.

Yes I do love leaving my stories hanging like this. :)
(Actually nothing happened afterwards, just some boring walking and boring eating and boring browsing and a bit boring sketching before blogging boring post...)

Another thing is, I'm about to face my first semester examination in about 15 days..and that sucks.
(I don't know, I just have the habit of blogging just right before examinations..I guess.)

I should be revising right now..
