had anyone know about

this song!

Da grand opening and closing theme for 2002 FIFA World Cup.

Can’t play imeem/youtube here AT ALL. Just click da link to watch/listen if you haven’t;)

i just so happened to recall da tune of la la la la la la la la, la la la la la~ la … (x2)  and then start humming, whenever i’d go jogging with meow meow at da nearest track where stadium is. Out of da soooo many times we were there catching up with our breathing, there’d be more than 90 percent sure bound to see some Korean footballers on da field doing thier usual trainings.

Upon seeing Koreans, track, field, and some posters around, it was enough to bring back some memories of this song that was once very popular within da Japan and Korea.   

Even though i’m certainly not into watching football (cos i refused to pick up as a hobbie), not even when i was 17 in da year 2002, but at that very year, that was when i learned about FIFA World Cup became uber hot over da world!

The duo was selected in 2002 as part of the 2002 FIFA World Cup official artist unit Voices of Korea/Japan, along with Brown Eyes (Korea), Lena Park (Korea), and Sowelu (Japan), raising their profile significantly in Korea, adding to the mutual cultural interest that has been blazing between the two countries since the turn of the century.

If not for Chemistry, i guess i wouldn’t had download to listen.

Back to FIFA. No exceptions in Singapore, especially during my ITE time, some World Cup siaos would come approaching me to send them this song through net after that i had this ‘Let’s get together’ song first sent to a classmate. So hype especially at that FIFA period!

Until today, not so siao over it already of course. But i was irresistably hooked to da Chemistry’s, da Japanese R&B duo and Hirai Ken’s voices unknowingly at da tender age of 14. To treat myself nicer with some good music relaxation therapy, with some background rhythems to bring me back well-focus so that i won’t miss any hits on da thick thick notes, if not -.-

On a side note, Chemistry’s coming up with another album named Face to Face, on da 30th this month yor:)

So meanwhile, i’ll just have to keep on floating before da new album released!

entry of da 2008.

Hahs. I’m so late. Late for more than 2 week plus to greet every boredy here a … happy new year 2008~!!

It’s da year of Olympic that China is to hold for an event. Olympic 2008 logo is everywhere you can easily spot. Gradually has become a "tool" to promote China product while market is still pipping hot.

************

Lazy is all you can see cos there’s only like 1 or 2 entry in a month i’d contributed so far to keep my blog still living, with dusts and dullness covering on top of it.

Still, i am feeling great, glad and thankful to some audience out there who’s been keeping a track with me here. I’m sure writting an online diary is something one should be open enough to share their stuff. Something you’d once read for that mere second can take much of an effort and guts to show by a writer. Somethimes i do really sound stern ya? =PP Pardon me, cos I can’t help it too. My views and personal blog style may or not take into other’s account. Moreover, i can make no one oblige to think what i think. For me to see da truth, it do really depends alot on how did you interpret my purpose that time.

Less of my confessions here. I am supposed to update da trip at Japan last October. LOL.

Pretty cover uh? It is a practical souvenir cos no one would bear to throw it away after finishing da cookies inside. This is da typical souvenir that many people would go for, can eat and keep for good use:)

600yen each. It’s like 4.8 Singdollars. I’m like a happy girl having good time distributing them to my Mom(pink), Dawn(pink) and Ah Bee(purple).

2 little keychain seal disguise to be bee and beatles. (Grabbed this 2 at great deal!)  If anyone out there had been to a shop call Mother Garden, you’ll know things ain’t cheap at all. Chanced upon this shop in Japan, i thought da price should be of no any different from Singapore. Thank goodness i checked. Indeed it is a whopper! I mean a whopper in here. Over there this 2 seal is like 1/2 price cheaper can? Cute little thing. meow meow meows! :D

4 to 5 bucks each.

Outta sooooo many gifts i distributed, da largest quantity given out at a time to da same person, to my surprise, is her!!! Totally miscount all right? And when after da return, i got everything out to see how much things i had gotten her so far during da trip.

Can you guys spot da piece of note i wrote in da picture? Is it not clear enough or my english simply just sux that makes no human understand?

Apparantly some english il-literate did it behind my back. Hahs.

I think it is not da matter of throwing da box away. I just felt not being respected in a way. When EVERY1 was informed not to discard. All snacks are not from local except that Merci. Bought it from fairprice during that very day, for everyone and some ingrate to eat. Knowing themself they are one, fancy still eat infront of me. LOL. I suddenly feel good again =PP
