Original song by Corrine May.. Beautiful.. Guess u will know why I like.....:)
Journey
It's a long long journey
Till I know where I'm supposed to be
It's a long long journey
And I don't know if I can believe
When shadows fall and block my eyes
I am lost and know that I must hide
It's a long long journey
Till I find my way home to you
Many days I've spent
Drifting on through empty shores
Wondering what's my purpose
Wondering how to make me strong
I know I will falter
I know I will cry
I know you'll be standing by my side
It's a long long journey
And I need to be close to you
Sometimes it feels no one understands
I don't even know why
I do the things I do
When pride builds me up till I can't see my soul
Will you break down these walls and pull me through
Cause It's a long long journey
Till I feel that I am worth the price
You paid for me on calvary
Beneath those stormy skies
When Satan mocks and friends turn to foes
It feels like everything is out to make me lose control
It's a long long journey
Till I find my way home to you
To you

The story of the Tree, cow and buffalo
I am just too lazy to put up the photos, will do that once I finish packing my scrapbook stuff. I promised....Finally put up the shelves so now its sorting time... gosh i got too many stuff. 2009 I gotta put myself on a paper ban. :)
Ok back to the story.
We took a overnight train from HaNoi to Sapa, its about 8 hours train ride, and I think I only slept like an hour in total. Sleeping on the upper deck its wobbily+ noisy + musical ensemble through the night. A good thing I never fell down ahha.
Reach there early morning, driver Hai pick us up. Now that's quite a handsome young boy(to me he consider a boy category), with eyes that can mesmerise you. (Now thats the story that evolves around our Sapa beauty and him hahah)
I wonder how he drives with mist and I can't even see the road. An hour ride and we are into cat cat hotel. Freezing cold and electricy surge. Luckily the manager gave us each a hot tea. That really keep us warm a little.
Went out for breakfast and a few of us decide to try the market food while the majority of the rest go into some cafe. Met a local lady and she speak pretty good english and help us to order food. Hmm nice yummy noodles. I like it :)
Met our tour guide Miss Khu in the afternoon and she brought us trekking into cat cat village, a disappointment cos its all misty land. So we see horses, chickens, ducks in misty mountains. Reminds me very much of my grandparents place,or my old place.
Sammi was joking her friends are going to laugh at her for spending $$$ to come here to look at all this when she could have look at this in Malaysia .. opps.
I think these local people are smart, will attach the photos soon to show u why they are smart, making use of each opportunity to pound rice.
A real pity we couldn't see the terrace rice fields, went down into the waterfall. Well just another waterfall to me, unless its those magnificent ones like Nigara which I haven't got the chance to see yet.
Going back is a real challenge, cos we have gone all the way down into the valley so now its up up up slope. Gosh. Finally we make our way back. Actually for me going down the steps is always a scary thing for me, feel like tumbling down like humpty dumpty .. Going up is never a issue ekkekeke
Second day we went into Ta Phin, village.
The moment we get down from the bus, all the ladies and kids crowd around us. Trying to sell us their handicraft. ( i got no idea what they are selling then, cos its all covered up in baskets)
They follow us, asking us our names, I simply ignore. You see I don't want to get entangled into this never ending story. We walk quite a far bit still there are still a few of them who followed us. One of them walk beside me asking me my name. I keep quiet . I spoke in Mandarin telling my tour mates infront and behind me, saying : 我知道我很没礼貌。Guess what, the local tribe lady replied me: Never mind.
Gosh I am so embarrassed, she actually understand. Ok I forgot to mention Tafin village comprises mainly of the red tribe and their ancestors are from China. So most likely they understand mandarin.
There is also this lady who is carrying her baby behind her and following us all the way, I really feel so sorry for her and the kid. hmmmm the rest of my tour mates are reminding me don't be so soft hearted.
Along the way back, Cyn ask me to take a photo of her and a tree. I gave her this weird expression and almost want to say: What's so great about this tree? Then I told her in mandarin hey I am going to take u + the tribal lady beside u. Cyn went ok. After the shot, she told me: U really think I want to take with the tree, its the lady I want to take. HAHAHa.. Blur sotong me.
End of the story is I end up buying a pouch from the lady carrying the baby. She and her fellow mates are trying to tell us in English about having to take care of children etc. I don't know the stories she and the rest told are true or not about feeding babies etc but well if If a SGD 2 can bring smile to her, why not. I can see that she is happy cos after that she can run so fast with the baby. Ok I never have a photo of her, cos I just don't want to take. I buying the pouch from her doesn't mean I should take a photo of her. Its just not right.
The third day we went to one of the markets, don't know the name. But is definitely far 3 or 4 hour ride with us having to find a toilet when we reach the destination. The tribles there are all flower tribes. Hmm in my opinion nothing much in the market.
The most interesting part is along the way, cynthia was saying Cow . Miss khu went: Its a Buffalo, buffaloes have horns, cows don't. Haha, and the whole journey was we teasing cynthia. Even Hai went teasing her on all the animals that we came across during the journey Poor Cynthia actually got so confused and doubted her own self and when she was in teh market, she ask her cousin if those at the market are cows or buffaloes.
Oh ya found this in youtube on Sapa. Ignore the music on the second video, no idea why they put such Chinese kind of music .. eeks

A pity I lost this song when my mp3 player spoilt a yr back. :(
当我们同在一起
王羚柔
专辑：当我们同在一起

如果云 是天空的呼吸
风是我 慌张的叹息
回忆是 爱的延续
只因为 你和我已经 不在一起
当我们同在一起 在一起 在一起
空气里 有午后的暖意
我听着 沙沙收音机
突然间 下起了雨
雨让我 好想好想你 想抱着你
当我们同在一起 在一起 在一起
在一起 在一起 其快乐无比
-
你是我 曾经的甜蜜
我是你 爱情的过去
那一段 美好的记忆
我们都 不能够忘记
因为我 很爱很爱你
所以能 微笑着离去
虽然我 不会在见你
幸福是 我们曾经在一起
----
空气里 有午后的暖意
我听着 沙沙收音机
唱什么 听不清晰
因为我 傻傻的笑着
想起了你
当我们同在一起 在一起 在一起
在一起 在一起 其快乐无比

对的人
I know I had put up the lyrics some time back, now here's the MTV for it. Enjoy....
對的人 - 戴愛玲
曲︰KEITH STUART
詞︰姚謙
編︰KEITH STUART
你問在我心中 是否還苦惱
那次受傷 否決了愛的好
謝謝你的關照 我一切都好
一個人 不算困擾
＊愛雖然很美妙 卻不能為了寂寞
又陷了泥沼
＃愛要耐心等待 仔細尋找 感覺很重要
寧可空白了手 等候一次 真心的擁抱
我相信在〔這個〕世界上 一定會遇到
對的人出現〔在眼角〕
那次流過的淚 讓我學習到
如何祝福 如何轉身不要
在眼淚體會到 與自己擁抱
愛不是一種需要 是一種對照
重唱 ＊,＃
能願意為了一份愛付出去多少
然後得到多少並不計較
當我想清楚的時候 我就算已經準備好
放手去愛 海闊天高 WO WO WO WO YEAH
重唱 ＃,＃

Whoever find this, I love you
Chyi, one of my favourite singer. Heard her singing this song many many years back and fell in love with the way she sang it. I actually have the old cassete tape then, anyway got a CD version when she releases a compilation. I don't know who the orginal singer of this song is, however Chyi did a good job. Touching song that can bring tears................
Whoever Finds This I Love You!"
Verse 1
On a quiet street in the city a little old man walks along.
Shuffling through the Autumn afternoon.
And the Autumn leaves reminded him another summer's come and gone.
He had a long, lonely night ahead waitin' for June.
Then among the leaves near an orphan's home a piece of paper caught his eye,
And he stooped to pick it up with trembling hands.
And as he read the childish writing, the old man began to cry,
'Cause the words burned inside him like a flame.
CHORUS
"Whoever finds this, I love you!"
"Whoever finds this, I need you!"
"I ain't even got no one to talk to!"
"So, Whoever finds this, I love you!"
Verse 2
The old man's eyes searched the orphan's home,
And came to rest upon a child with her nose pressed up against the window pane.
And the old man knew he'd found a friend, at last,
So he waved at her and smiled.
And they both knew they'd spend the winter laughing at the rain.
{Recitation}
And they did spend the summer laughing at the rain, talking through the fence, exchanging little gifts they'd made for each other. The old man would carve toys for the little girl, and she would draw pictures for him of beautiful ladies surrounded by green trees and sunshine, and they laughed alot. But then on the first day of June, the little girl ran to the fence to show the man a picture she had drawn, BUT HE WASN'T THERE! And somehow, the little girl knew he wasn't coming back. So she went back to her little room, took out a crayola and a piece of paper, and wrote:
"Whoever finds this, I love you!"
"Whoever finds this, I need you!"
"I don't even have no one to talk to."
"So, whoever finds this, I love you!"
Whoever Finds This I Love You!"
