"Well, all I have to say is, you're a soft-hearted guy. After seeing u cry, now I know. No worries, ur not the only one."
- Zayaana
I remembered those words my pet sis wrote to me in the memento she gave me during Jalan Impian last year. For those who didn't know, I cried after the second matinee show in the dressing room, as a lotta the cast members and my mom consoled me. At that time, I can say that those were tears of guilt and regret and I would acknowledge that considering that I would admit to being at fault for whatever I had done before that, but I guess that's not the topic for the day.
But one thing's for sure, I am indeed a soft-hearted guy as how Zayaana described to me.
I must be THAT emotional I guess.
Then I thought about it and realized that I can get really emotional at times and sometimes, tears would just flow outta my eyes, particularly if it was an incident that had a certain meaning to it, like the time I cried at KLIA before I left for Perth for the second time last year. Heck, at times, I get emotional watching B'z's Itsuka No Merry Christmas and OCEAN performances from last year's Music Station SuperLive 2005 concert cause I think about my best bud, Masta K, a lot just by watching that.
These days, with my newfound fandom for the beautiful Yuna Ito, I have gotten emotional just listening to her singles. Yes, her career started to kick off sometime last year when she emerged in the Japanese music world, thanks in part to her role as Reira in the hit movie based on the popular manga, NANA, but nonetheless, the singles that she released, ENDLESS STORY, a Japanese cover of a very popular Western song, If I'm Not In Love by Dawn Ann Thomas and was voted by Oricon readers as the Number One Love Song Of 2005, and her latest single, Faith, both ballads by the way, would not fail in making my eyes water a bit. I guess with the powerful vocals that she posseses (She could reach the seven octaves at a very young age!), the musical arrangements and the meaningful lyrics, it's no surprise that it could easily touch my heart just by listening to them. Faith is probably the best example, but I shall save that for the review in my blog if you click on the link right below the Currently listening to section after the post. Rarely do I hear songs that would make me cry and now, with these two singles, I was proven wrong indeed.
I maybe a wrestling purist for 13 hard long years, which would make all of you judge me to be a no-nonsense temperamental tough guy, but I am indeed a softie at heart too.
Anyways, enough about that. I guess I should update about my current life so far, which is pretty, umm, dull. Yeah, but at least yesterday, I got to go out for dinner with Abu, Philip and Esther, my KDU friends who are studying in Murdoch with me, so that is indeed kinda refreshing for me. I'm not entirely sure what else my plans are for this week though, but I hope it would be a good week for me. It has been boring lately, but then again, it's just my second week here in Perth, so I've got about 13 more weeks or so before I depart back to K.L. again.
So, I guess that is all from me today. Till then...........
