The song's been changed to another Japanese one...: Usotsuki by Ueto Aya.

I like the starting a lot, but I dunno why, sometimes the starting just catches me by surprise.... like all of a sudden the music comes out...

Anyways, I haven't blogged for a long time. On Friday we had the National Day Celebration in school. It was overall alright... for one of the videos, the one where it says: "Compassion, Determination, Confidence... etc..." for the part where the people are playing netball inside or something, they used the "Liar Game" theme music, didn't they? Haha... it suddenly sounded really nostalgic. Haha...

At night, we watched the Olympics Opening Ceremony. It was the most spectacular and impactful performance I've ever seen, especially the start of the whole show. I must applaud Zhang Yi Mou, the chloreographer of the whole performance. (He really is so good at all these... even in movies...) The countdown and the drums part were the best performance I've ever seen! They were so co-ordinated! And there were 2008 people in total! Wow...

The middle part was fine though... those who don't know China's history would not really get it... it was about the creation of paper and the evolution of the Chinese words. But the fireworks totally rocked! It was so cool, and it was endless... China really spent loads of money on all these...

I kept watching the ceremony... even when the participants came in country by country (that's the most boring part, because there are 204 countries.), I'm still glued to the Tv. Couldn't miss Spain, Switzerland, Singapore and obviously China. I didn't know how they arrange the countries... and then after that I realize the arrange them by the number of strokes in their name. So Singapore was at the back...

Spotted Nadal from Spain... haha... so happy... they had the camera pointed at him... too bad he wasn't the flagbearer. Hope to catch his game in future... hopefully he beats loads of people... haha... From Switzerland, I spotted Roger Federer.... he's holding the flag, of course. He's the world number 1 tennis player. But soon, that position will be replaced by Nadal.... kukukuku...

Okay, enough of that. Singapore's flagbearer is Li Jiawei. Jiayou, Singapore... couldn't recognise any other faces. By the way, USA had loads of participants. China too... the one who bears the flag is Yao Ming, and the little boy from the Si Chuan earthquake was next to him. So cute, and you can really see the difference in height... haha.

After that, there's the torch relay thing. The last person to light the torch was Li Ning... He was raised up to the roof and had to run one round along the side of the wall to the torch. It must be really tiring, because he has to resist gravity, and still have to have a certain speed...

After the torch lighting, it's the fireworks again... beautiful fireworks... excellent performance... this is definitely a success. Haha... and we reached home at about 1am... haha... and my eyes did not leave the Tv at all for the entire performance plus arrival of participants plus ending part... (maybe only for a while... to get a drink... then rushed back... haha...)


Okay... that's all for Friday...

Saturday we watched the National Day Parade... quite a great performance too. Of course we should not compare it to the Opening Ceremony performance... the population size is already different. Was Nan Hua participating in it? I thought I heard the person announce it. I dunno... but if the people are Nan Huarians, then they are terrific! Haha... great co-ordination. :) I loved the sing-along session. It's nostalgic hearing all the songs played out again... though I didn't sing out loud... haha... The fireworks were amazing too... too bad I can't be there... aww...



One last thing... some people think my blog is emo.... hmm... That's really weird, because I didn't mean to be emo at all... Sure, the background is all black, but that's just because I happen to like the design up there. And there's the title of the blog that everyone says that it's emo... Hell Butterfly. I didn't even know the word "Hell" was emo.... haha... I just thought it's dark and mysterious. I'm quite attracted to that word... for example, when there's a drama or anime that starts with that word, like Hell Girl (Jigoku Shoujo), I'm tempted to watch it, because it probably is a very dark and cool anime/drama. Dots...

But this term came from the anime Bleach. Bleach fans probably know. A hell butterfly is a messenger that assists and delivers announcements to Shinigamis (Death gods). I loved that term, because it seems so beautiful and cool. (A butterfly from hell... like there's a sort of contrast there... so cool...) Furthermore, I loved the Japanese name translated from this term... which is Jigoku Chou. (That's my blog address name...) So there... nothing really emo there.... haha...

That's about it.

I'll probably stop blogging from now on, since the Promos are coming soon... time to start studying and not slack anymore... I realise that my Econs and Chem are terrible... have to get these two on the right track soon.... See ya... good luck to everyone in their promos in future... haha.
