And that brings the total number of songs by S.H.E to a staggering 98!
Yeah! 98 songs in barely 6 years. (Including all songs in OSTs, but excluding duets that are not present in their album)
Freaking impressive. There aren't many artistes that comes even close to that. Generally, most of them releases only 1 album per year. For example, Jay's been around for 7 years and has 7 albums (the impressive thing about him is he has never release a compilation to date). Lin Jun Jie debuted in 2003, and currently has 4 albums. Jolin has 8 official albums (she has too many "remixes") after 8 years. The only one that "can fight" is Stefanie Sun, with 10 albums after 8 years. But I think one of her compilation contain only like 2 new songs.
Anyway, I've just scanned through the album once, looking at the lyrics and listening to the song. So, it's still way too early to comment which song is good and which one is bad. And way to early to judge the album.
But there's no doubt that this is their most innovative (or some say weird) album to date. They've tried some styles of songs that were never present in their previous 9 albums before. Previous albums always follow the "Classic, Winning, Safe Formula", meaning lots of love ballads with a few fast songs throw in between.
Now I'm indulging in their photobook and the new songs. Haha. Might do a review once I think the "freshness" factor has stabalize.

7.5KM Cross Country...
Geez...just ran "Seven Point Five Kilometres". Took me around an hour. Whew...so shagged when I finished the run, but the feeling is really great!
Wonder how long has it been since I run anything close to that distance. Even secondary school also 4.8km only. The first person to complete to run took only 31mins plus...That's crazy. 31 minutes to complete 7.5km?!
Anyway, after the run I took a bus and reach Chong Pang City... so many memories from that place. I haven't been there for a long long time. During my Secondary School days, I took 858 from there everyday for 4 years to school and back home. Today I took the same bus again. Brings back a lot of memories...
Like bidding goodbye to my Sembawang mates, chasing after 856... Haha.
Well, just finished bathing and all that. Now waiting for my old man to bring me food. After that I think I will collapse on the bed. My legs are totally sore... don't know tomorrow wake up still can walk or not.

ORD Lo...Bye Andrew!
When Andrew returned in triumph with the pink IC, we were all full of envy.
He's the first person to ORD from the unit since I got here, and he's one of the 3 grand seniors of the unit. Then we got to see the "Release from Service" letter and all that...
Haiz... When will be my turn?
Sometimes, I wonder if I would forward the time if I had that Universal Controller.
SK still joked about checking Arven after he's gone. Haha. Anyway, I think he'll still come back to visit Arven, and all of us of course.

Most Touching Lyrics...
Sometimes, the lyrics can really make or break a song (even if the music is superb). A Melancholy tune combined with emotive lyrics will touch your heart much more, and that's what makes a truly great love ballad. This doesn't apply only to love songs (although most of time it is). Some songs have such great descriptive words that you can almost visualize the "MTV" of the song. You can just picture the scenes in your head just from the words.
Here are some of the most touching lyrics that have left the deepest impression on me. It goes all the way from the really old classics to recent songs.
1)谁还记得是谁先说, 永远的爱我。。。以前的一句话是我们以后的伤口
2)不管我后来遇见多少人, 只能叹息, 都不是你
3)早知道伤心总是难免的 你又何苦一往情深。。。
4)过去让它过去, 来不及, 从头喜欢你。。。如果不能够永远走在一起, 也至少给我们怀念的勇气
5)曾经爱过却要分手, 为何相爱不能相守。。。既然说过深深爱我, 为何又要离我远走
6)非要等到爱远走, 分两头, 才知道多不舍你走。。。
7)还记得那个微凉夜里天空正飘着小雨。。。
8)一生得几回年少 倦鸟终归要回巢。。。
9)美丽的故事总有个结局, 我的就是失去了你
10)如果全世界我也可以放弃, 至少还有你值得我去珍惜
11)离开是想要被挽留, 如果开口那只是, 我要来的温柔
12)与你分享的快乐胜过独自拥有, 至今我仍深深感动
13)多想化成隐形的人 掩饰我伤痕。。。隐藏我的泪在翻滚
14)连分手也是让我最后得到的消息。。。还爱着你 你却把别人拥在怀里
15)我又回头去飞, 去追任往, 事一幕一幕催我落泪。。。
16)如果我们现在还在一起会是怎样, 我们是不是还是深爱着对方。。。
17)明明从前, 连争执都很甜美。。。现在怎会, 说句话, 就冷冻一边
18)你哭着对我说, 童话里都是骗人的, 我不可能是你的王子
19)有种叫做时间的东西, 说没问题, 最后我们会痊癒。。。
20)情人节就要来了, 剩自己一个 。其实爱对了人情人节每天都过。。。

Correcting Mistakes...
Sometimes, it's good that people can correct your mistakes before it becomes rooted into you.
Like today, just what I experience. Shit happens.
It's quite unfair when let's say, you're totally new to something. The first "teacher" you got taught you some things. Naturally you just assumed everything he says is correct and you just follows everything he says... And when you keep doing it over and over again, it naturally becomes part of you, and it becomes the "right thing" to do.
What if, say 2 months later, someone tell you in your face that certain things you've been doing were wrong all the while? It would definitely be quite a shock... Usually the first thing you're expose to (in a new field of knowledge) will be "implanted" into you, and you wouldn't question it.
Anyway, its' definitely good when these errors get spotted by others, and they tell you in time (before something bad happens due the mistakes). The earlier it gets corrected the easier it is to change.
