We’re standing on the edge of time
We’re riding to the stars
And we never will surrender
Lonely knights we are

And we are flying into the open sky
Gliding to the stars
We are standing strong together
But still they seem so far

And we’re diving into eternity
Facing destiny
And we are flying away eternally
Forever riding free

Hands up high
Oh warriors of light
And carry on a thousand times
You’re forever lasting ride

Land of light
The glorious unite
Oasis for a thousand lives
Forever we survive

We’re flying to the promised land
To the gates of no return
We’re heading for the future
And we’ll fight until the end

[Bridge / Chorus]

Once upon a time
We reached the stars our hands have touched the sky

After 2 days couldn’t access to the internet, now I can do it again. It’s so good, and it looks like I’m getting a new life. I can’t live without internet; there was a uncomfortable feeling inside me; I concerned if anyone sent me emails, or some important things might happen and I couldn’t get it in the right time. It was very scary, wasn’t it? I tried everything, from unplugging to uninstalling everything, so I felt so sad when all my attempt went to waste. Suddenly a thought appeared on my mind; I tried to reset the internet router, and finally, my computer can access to the internet again. The thing is I could play game through the local area network via the router, but I couldn’t get to the internet, and my cousin can easily get to it. That’s why I didn’t think the problem was with the router.

It’s like you lose something that is precious to you. For a long time, you put all of  your mind, your soul into it, and in just a second, it disappears. It hurts, you know… it’s so painful. Yeah, I know I give it up with my will, but… Well, life moves on, everything moves on; it will surely find a way out.

After attending 2 classes that I had enrolled this intersession, I decided to… drop them all =)). I’d never thought that Winter session could be so stressful.

It was funny that the first day I attended at the English 1A class, the instructor said the Winter session is only for professors who want to finish this class in a short time in order to get their bachelors :) ) That’s a reason, and the other one is her accent. As was noticed on ratemyprofessors, she talked with her Ukrinaian tone which is so hard to understand. 

Later yesterday, I went to the History class; the professor was so nice. However, I can’t study it in just one month. When I looked at the syllabus, I thought “What the heck is this!” =)) He demanded we read a chapter per day, and each chapter is about 20 pages. Not only that, we’re gonna have 4 essays in total – 2 take-home essays, and 2 in-class essays, and that I didn’t mention 10 quizzes and pop-quizzes of his :-ss.

So in the end, I quitted all =)) Now, in three weeks, I’ll focus on taking the driving license. I’m gonna have a car, I’m gonna have a car =))

Just look at the Mexican – American or British – American girls and you’ll know what I’m talking about. The way they make-up, the way they dress, their bodies and their faces – all of those make your heart skip a beat. I wonder if they are lost angels…

We are living the last days of 2008, and just a few more days, we’re gonna be in a new year. In 2008, there were so many things happened to me, and the biggest event was that I could go to the US. Now, I’m still scared when remembering the interview, but it was just the past; everything is fine now.

What do I want to say? – Right! The most thing I was surprised when first put my feet in the US was their parking lots :) ) I can say it’s triple larger than Singapore’s and so 5-6 times larger then Vietnam’s (if it has any :D ).

Well, in 2009, I can’t go to NTH’s traditional fair and can’t be given lucky money; that’s so sad. However, I’m going to Las Vegas to celebrate the New Year Event, and I’m looking forward to it.

Happy New Year to Everyone!

Today is the Christmas day, and it’s also a special day to me. When I went to the church with my aunt this afternoon. I saw a girl who almost pictured everything about Dung. She had the same smile as Dung’s which used to make me be deep in love. I was stunned and speechless in a few seconds. I know that was just a coincidence, but how could it be like this?

What a miracle!

“What the heck is Rasputin?” – I know that some of you are trying to question it. Actually, Rasputin was a Russian monk, but people entitled him as a mad monk. He was  the most influencing person to the Russian king and queen in 1900s. When I was in 3rd grade, I used to hear a song named “Rasputin”, and I felt so excited with its rhythm. A couple days ago, I accidentally found it on Youtube, and so it recalled my memory.

There lived a certain man in Russia long ago
He was big and strong, in his eyes a flaming glow
Most people looked at him with terror and with fear
But to Moscow chicks he was such a lovely dear
He could preach the bible like a preacher
Full of ecstasy and fire
But he also was the kind of teacher
Women would desire

RA RA RASPUTIN
Lover of the Russian queen
There was a cat that really was gone
RA RA RASPUTIN
Russia’s greatest love machine
It was a shame how he carried on

He ruled the Russian land and never mind the Tsar
But the kasachok he danced really wunderbar
In all affairs of state he was the man to please
But he was real great when he had a girl to squeeze
For the queen he was no wheeler dealer
Though she’d heard the things he’d done
She believed he was a holy healer
Who would heal her son

RA RA RASPUTIN
Lover of the Russian queen
There was a cat that really was gone
RA RA RASPUTIN
Russia’s greatest love machine
It was a shame how he carried on

(Spoken:)
But when his drinking and lusting and his hunger
for power became known to more and more people,
the demands to do something about this outrageous
man became louder and louder.

“This man’s just got to go!” declared his enemies
But the ladies begged “Don’t you try to do it, please”
No doubt this Rasputin had lots of hidden charms
Though he was a brute they just fell into his arms
Then one night some men of higher standing
Set a trap, they’re not to blame
“Come to visit us” they kept demanding
And he really came

RA RA RASPUTIN
Lover of the Russian queen
They put some poison into his wine
RA RA RASPUTIN
Russia’s greatest love machine
He drank it all and said “I feel fine”

RA RA RASPUTIN
Lover of the Russian queen
They didn’t quit, they wanted his head
RA RA RASPUTIN
Russia’s greatest love machine
And so they shot him till he was dead

(Spoken:) Oh, those Russians…

Somebody says time is the best treatment; it helps you forget everything. Time will heal the inside-wounds, and help you bounce back to the normal life. But I didn’t seem to get it that way.  It has been 4 years, and I’ve tried to forget everything about you; however, it just seemed so hard. That’s so funny! I see myself haven’t changed a bit, still be a lame, naive guy. Literally, I went out with some girls, but ended up as friends cause I didn’t want to make it any further. I want to tell you that I love you; I want you to be next to me, but my dream didn’t come true. I’m still waiting for time to take my sadness away.
