Life is Like a Boat - Rei Fu

-
Nobody knows who I really am
I never felt this empty before
And if I ever need someone to come along
Who's gonna comfort me and keep me strong

We are all rowing the boat of fate
The waves keep on comin' and we can't escape
But if we ever get lost on our way
The waves would guide you thru another day

Tooku de iki wo shiteru
Toumei ni natta mitai
Kurayami ni omaeta kedo
Mekakushi sareteta dake

Inori wo sasagete
Atarashii hi wo matsu
Azayaka ni hikaru umi
Sono hate made

Nobody knows who I really am
Maybe they just don't give a damn
But if I ever need someone to come along
I know you would follow me, and keep me strong

Hito no kokoro wa utsuri yuku
Nugedashitaku naru
Tsuki wa mata atarashii shuuki de
Fune wo tsureteku

And every time I see your face,
The oceans heave up to my heart
You make me wanna strain at the oars,
And soon I can see the shore

Oh, I can see the shore
When will I see the shore?

I want you to know who I really am
I never thought I'd feel this way towards you
And if you ever need someone to come along
I will follow you, and keep you strong

Tabi wa mada tsudzuiteku
Odayaka na hi mo
Tsuki wa mata atarashii shuuki de
Fune wo terashidasu

Inori wo sasagete
Atarashii hi wo matsu
Azayaka ni hikaru umi
Sono hate made

And every time I see your face,
The oceans heave up to my heart
You make me wanna strain at the oars,
And soon I can see the shore

Unmei no fune wo kogi
Nami wa tsugi kara tsugi he to
Watashi-tachi wo osou kedo
Sore mo suteki na tabi ne
Dore mo suteki na tabi ne

Nobody knows who I really am
I never felt this empty before
And if I ever need someone to come along
Who's gonna comfort me and keep me strong

We are all rowing the boat of fate
The waves keep on comin' and we can't escape
But if we ever get lost on our way
The waves would guide you thru another day

Taking deep breathes
As if I were transparent
I thought I was in the dark, but
I was only blindfolded

Offer a prayer
A new day is waiting
Til the ends
Of a vividly shining sea

Nobody knows who I really am
Maybe they just don't give a damn
But if I ever need someone to come along
I know you would follow me, and keep me strong

People's hearts change
And you'll stop wanting to slip away
The moon is in a new cycle
So bring the boat along

And every time I see your face,
The oceans heave up to my heart
You make me wanna strain at the oars,
And soon I can see the shore

Oh, I can see the shore
When will I.... can see the shore?

I want you to know who I really am
I never thought I'd feel this way towards you
And if you ever need someone to come along
I will follow you, and keep you strong

The journey still goes on
Even on quiet days
The moon is in a new cycle
Illuminating the boat

Offer a prayer
A new day is waiting
Til the ends
Of a vividly shining sea

And every time I see your face,
The oceans heave up to my heart
You make me wanna strain at the oars,
And soon I can see the shore

Row the boat of destiny
And even though
Wave after wave attacks us
This is a wonderful journey
They're all wonderful journies

Satisfied with the Kobukuro ALL SINGLES BEST album

-
It has been a month since I bought the Kobukuro ALL SINGLES BEST that I have been searching for lyrics written in romanji. (Becasuse I am not a good reader of Kanji). Thanks to Amy's blog entitled "Obsessed with Kobukuro", I am now able to sing along with Kobukuro. I can now rest and say I'm satisfied. Here are the lyrics: Kimi toiu na no Tsubasa Shiwakucha no shashin ni wa Mabushikatta jikan to Yorisou bokura ga itai hodo Azayakani yakitsukerareteite Hagureta no wa kitto Dochira no sei demo nakute Ki ga tsukeba kimi wa boku no Naka ni sumi hajimeta Kachimake dake ja nai nanika wo Oshiete kureta REESU ga aru Issho ni hashitta tsumetai natsu no ame Aoi shibuki ni kasanaru zanzou Mizugiwa ni ukabeta kanjou Yorokobi ya kanashimi no kizu sae Tsutsumikonda yakusoku no hikari Akireru hodo massugu ni Hashiri nuketa kisetsu wo Sagashite mada boku wa ikiteru Machigai darake no ano hibi ni Oto shita namida to kotae wo Mune ippai ni kaki atsumete mou ichido

Movie Review: Full Metal Alchemist (Live-Action)

-
Finally, I was able to watch the live-action of Full Metal Alchemist. I can say, the visual effects and graphics were well-made. The locations were fitting for the movie. I think the actors who portrayed Lust and Hughes were a close look-alike to the anime. The scene when Nina became a chimaera, I remember it was a very sad episode. I think some scenes lack a believable script and portrayal. Too bad, the civil war was not developed well in this movie. Also, I expected more alchemy and action scenes. Anyway, where is Armstrong? Still, in the end, I enjoyed the movie. I hope they can make it better for the next instalment, if ever.

Movie: Heneral Luna

-
Got to watch this film before I went home tonight. The cinema was full - mostly students. As a historical film, the movie got my interest on how they will bring the story to life - they did not fail me. Most of the scripts of the characters were natural like in a normal conversation, and poetic when needed. The comedies were nicely thrown as the people loved it with synchronous loud laughters. The dramas were also effective as you will hear dismay and disgust. They have selected good actors and actresses which played the roles well. And lastly the music and special effects were great. I liked the scenes where Antonio Luna played his guitar and his last scene. Overall, it is indeed an epic historical film. It inspires you to love more our freedom, our country - the Philippines and fight for justice. At the same time it makes you think about the past and the future of governments. Do history repeats itself? Hopefully, the teachers give those noisy students an exam about the movie.
