大发现！蓝奕邦！

我好喜欢他的音乐！

偶然之间点选他最新的专辑听，
发现它们有着英式摇滚的作风，
正是我喜欢的类型！

再上YouTube找找他的歌，
发现他有一首歌叫热带鱼。
热带鱼，曾是我写的一则小故事的主角。
在此献给你们听。
好喜欢这首歌的风格！

原来，他是个香港本地创作歌手、作曲人、填词人、舞台剧演员。他的音乐风格从原音，电子元素，到现在我刚刚听到的英式摇滚及爵士都有。他还曾为许多著名歌手填词作曲，如梁静茹、林忆莲、容祖儿、刘德华等。包括梁静茹《Fly away》的曲就是他作的。

懂得创作、自弹自唱、歌唱有感觉、风格豪爽，
他会不会取代方大同在我心中的位置呢？

对他有兴趣的话，可留意他的部落格《叫我藍邦》。


热带鱼
曲：蓝奕邦 | 词：蓝奕邦 | 编：蓝奕邦/李汉金

*热带鱼
鱼缸中一双一对 谈不上挥之则去
大家不想太疲累 功课做完大觉睡
鱼缸中懒惰浮游 得过且过的屈居 不进则退 *

兴那个 跟那个 抄个够吧 书报里 推介过 然后你又赞它
大红人 穿着过 所以着吧 总会有 AB餐 无谓费神去拣

天光必然有天黑 根本不用计算吧
思想保持最简单 等个笨人站前哨
讲的不是你所想 别做突出的那个
不需多动脑思考 逃避现实做哑巴

Repeat *

兴那个 听那个 起势唱吧 他会舞 双截棍
然后你又去耍 大红人 讲那套 反战说话
因你怕 跟不上 然后你又去反

催谷心灵喝鸡汤 纤体矫形再美白
追捧他人爱追的 帮个犯人做横额
偏激将弊处指出 受尽大家的怪责
不需多动脑思考 逃避现实做哑巴

热带鱼
鱼缸中针锋相对 谈不上挥之则去
大家不想太疲累 只要做人没顾虑
谁都可照样浮游 开心得有点心虚
烂泥一堆或是物以类聚

Repeat *

Fish with a Transparent Head

MACROPINNA MICROSTOMA: A "BARRELEYE" FISH

"This fish might look made for science—or just plain made-up—but it's 100-percent real. First described in 1939, this "barreleye" has been somewhat of a mystery to science. But researchers from the Monterey Bay Aquarium Research Institute were recently able to catch one of the deep-sea creatures and study it in a shipboard aquarium. They've learned that the fish can actually rotate its eyes upward to peer through its transparent, liquid-filled head. It's believed that the green color of the eyes (seen here looking sky-ward) might help to filter out sunlight so the fish can better spot its prey—glowing jellyfish—from its stomping grounds 2,000-2,600 feet (600-800 meters) below the surface."

Hi fish with transparent head and rotating eyes! Nice to meet you! This is such an interesting finding. We humans have so much more we don't know.

拭目以待

我在看这套剧之前就已经在电台听到这首歌。
听了，很有能量与希望。
歌词，句句在表达这我现在的心声。
后来才发现，是本地(新加坡是我们的邻居，比较起中港台，它是本地）创作。
唱歌、写词曲都是我以前欣赏的：红毛派与小寒。

每一口呼气，我们离开过去，
每一口吸气，我们走向未来。
重生在呼吸间。

在这经济不景气的时段，
有些人找工，有些人找姻缘，有些人找人生的意义。
就让我们不要害怕，不要被打垮，
对过去检讨放下，
对未来拭目以待，
活好现在。


由于这首歌没有MV，只能用《我的未来不是梦》的片头影片。你可以直接scroll下去看歌词。我想分享的是词曲唱哦！还有黄俊雄很帅。

拭目以待

第一次的過失 才發現 心中有把真理的尺
勇氣它原來這裡開始
　
每一次的得失 決定著 我明天是什麼樣子
塞滿理想的城市淚水變成了奢侈
微笑是對自己的懂事

我願意拭目以待
去等待每份色彩
拭目以待我打造什麼未來
時間是個郵差 按時遞送題材
我的夢我主宰你最明白

每一次的錯失 會發現 緊握空拳頭的手指
緊握的是跳躍 的堅持
　
偶而會有迷失 決定著 人的幸福最後地址
成長沒有方程式跟隨真心的聖旨
你是我 最值得的固執

拭目以待
去期待每份精彩
拭目以待那是怎樣的未來
我用雙手撐開 天空 每片的陰霾
我的夢我主宰風雨不改

Do something!

I shall send few job applications TODAY.
I shall tidy my wardrobe and desk TODAY.
I shall call my aunt TODAY.
I shall list again my to-do list TODAY.

The nightmare this morning is scary. Probably deep in my heart, I know that I am guilty of procrastinating :S

Happy valentine

I want to make a shout-out.

I am proud, grateful and excited to have Hidayat with me.

He gives me
emotional freedom,
trust,
loads of sayang,
Dharmic support,
attention when I need it
and patience.











We should remain mindful of ourselves and the relationship.
To hell with my excessive worries about failure in the future
and live the present moment to the fullest!
As the future is constructed by each pieces of "present moment"s.

Prescription - Meditation

As Hidayat mentioned, I am mindful of the "trauma attacks" and be able to be subjective of it, but I lack the stability to manage my emotions. I should do regular meditation.

Yes! I shall do it! 5 minutes a day. Hope this medicine helps.

Thanks for the support in my spiritual practice and emotional problems, yat.

Sea Ming Blue

I am currently plagued by "trauma attacks" (or dips).

I can be quite happy and suddenly, a big wave of blue swept me off my feet. The past unhappy memories began to drown me before I am able to stand up. The bitter-sour water come berduyun-duyun-ly (consecutive waves) until it suffocates me.

I need help. I need to do something or else I will go crazy at this short period of time.

Being mindful that these thoughts are not what I really think, I see them as a kind of mental sickness which will relapse until the past is fully let go of. Wo ming bai this is just part of the mood swing.

All in all, these water, upon analysis, do tell me something about the sea. It still needs time before it is self-sustainable.


The moral of the story:
1. Too much of attachment, really brings suffering.
2. Don't give yourself email names such as seamingblue@yahoo.com.
3. DO SOMETHING! Exercise! Eat healthily! Speak out problems! And constantly be MINDFUL.

My first post!

Welcome to my blog!

This new year, marks an exceptional milestone for me.
I have graduated from the academic world, just got together with my boyfriend, decided to let go of the past, and I start to adopt a healthier lifestyle.

I yearned for a blog for some time. I love to express my thoughts. As much as I converse better in Chinese, I feel that I can write better in English. So my blog will have a mixture of both languages =p

New year (not so new ya, haha). New status. New mindset.

Bon voyage!
