Valentine's day has come and passed, and I still haven't made a post about it! I'm planning to, since its all about my trip to Gunung Ledang, but I just haven't got the time yet, and my documentary is not complete yet... some of my chum's still hasn't uploaded the pictures that I want - the pictures of me, of course.
But there is a tale that crafted on this lovey-dovey event, the tale of my housemates.
Now, all my housemates are romantically involved with a guy, I'm pretty much the only single - and loving it! - gal at home. But I have to admit, there is a slight pang of jealousy that I felt when I discovered the gifts that they received!
Oh, the joy of gifts! I love gifts! It doesn't have to be expensive, in fact, all the best gifts that I ever got wasn't expensive at all!
And me? Well, I didn't even get a single bar of chocolate - except if you count the chocolate I got from Bang Azlan during the hike, but I'm pretty sure that has everything to do with my stomach grumbling and not because it was valentines day.
And the coolest gift that one of my housemates got was a sony mp3, and its RED! - my fav color!
Aww, goosh! Gosh, its oh-so-adorable! Me want! Me want!
I compare it with my puny and pathetic mp3 - that is slowly playing to its grave, its gonna die pretty soon - and... OMIGOSH! It has a sound recorder!!
I immediately asked premission to borrow it and did a test recording.
Hmm... what to record, what to record??
Ah, what better than one of my original songs? Hehehehe - narsistic mode: on.
So, actually, this post has got nothing to do with valentine's day. Sorry guys, I'm just not that into it - but i still accept gifts xD. This post is about a sony mp3 product test!
Yeah!
After I recorded a song, I played it, cringed everytime I sing off-key, but overall, I'm not quite satisfied with this minuscule device.
The downside of the recording is that the volume suddenly goes up and down, and it has nothing to do with how I'm singing - or maybe the mp3 tried to cover its "ears" because of my singing. And the recording is not clear. Hmm, the recording device gets 2 stars out of 5.
And heck, I went through all the trouble recording it, might as well upload it!
Story Behind It
I wrote this song on the 18th of March 2005 - woah, i was only 16 ya'll! - and I couldn't find the right chords for it. Until one day, around last month, my fellow musician, Zulramadhani helped with the chords. And voila! Four years later after it was written, it's completed! Oh, and when you listen to it, yeah, I know, I have bad pitch control, I am aware of that. I am a songwriter, NOT a singer. Hehehehhe. And I seriously need to brush up my guitar skills.
The lyrics:
(still untitled) by Miri Amee Music by Zul Ramadhani
Little girl so jaded
You've been played, treated like a puppet
How long will you walk that broken lane
Just a minute more you'll be left insane
Little girl living in a nightmare
Can't see outside the sun is shining bright
Does you father beat you up 'til you can't speak?
And you're mother drinks a lot 'til she is weak
Life seems over, and you have nothing more
And you're about to let it all go
Chorus:
Stand up!
Stand your ground right
Don't give up!
Everything is gonna be all right
Just think tomorrow will be a better day
And stand up, you know you'll be okay
Young man you're blinded
You were cast away, your lover doesn't wanna stay
Do you really think you can keep your cool
When your lady only treats you like a tool?
Young man, trying to make amends
You come to her with flowers in your hands
Do you really think that you should make a sacrifice
For a girl that kissed another guy in front of your eyes?
Your hear is shattered, you don't wanna love again
And you're falling down on your knees
Back to chorus
Okay, that's all. What do you guys think? And most important, what do you think the title should be?
