Myth Mania-greek part 1 (pomegranate)

For those who knows me well, they would know about my keen interest in the Greek Mythology. Somehow, the topic pomegranate came up. Maybe it's because i saw it in the market and i had always thought, besides strawberry, pomegranate is an interesting fruit. The story from the Greek myth behind this particular fruit is even more unbelievable. It is more a less a fruit that had cause a woman or a goddess of her freedom to love.

In one version of the Greek mythology, the pomegranate is a fruit bore in the depths of Hades (it means hell to us) . Persephone, was kidnapped by Hades and he took her into the underworld as his wife. Demeter, the mother of Persephone, went to mourning for the lost of her daughter and thus all greens are ceased to grow. Zeus, on the other hand could not let earth be destroyed therefore, he commanded his elder brother Hades to release Persephone. But Persephone was doomed to spend eternity in the underworld with a man she was forced to love. According to the rule of the Fates, anyone, anyone at all, who consumed food or drink in the underworld are doomed to spend eternity there. When Hades took Persephone in to the Underworld, she had neither food or drink, but Hades tricked her into eating four seeds of pomegranate seeds while she was still a prisoner to the underworld. So because of this, she was condemned to spend four months every year as the Queen of the Underworld. So, during that four months, Demeter will mourn for the loss of her daughter and will not give fertility to earth.

Because of four seeds, Persephone was doomed to spend eternity with someone she does not love. It goes the same with Adam and Eve. Because of temptation man fell into sins.

In reality it takes only one mistakes to ruin everything. Just like a drop of ink into a pure distilled water. No matter how clean or pure the water is, it only takes a drop of impurities to contaminate the water. For those who doesn't know, the reason of my keen interest in Greek Myths it is because of the fact that it really reflect the reality. It does not give you any fantasy about happy ending or even justice where the villains are punishes. In Greek mythology, there is no hero or heroin. Everyone is for themselves. Just like this world.

Sometimes it is really time for us to realise, the happy ending fantasy fiction like those in Hans Christian Anderson. Justice doesn't even exist, forget about happy ending. This is why, i restrain myself from reading fantasy, to remind myself, that's there is no justice or happy ending. It is just good enough to have a long and content life.

Brisk walking, badminton and Chucky's Badminton match with a 'Yeng' Aunty

You know, i've been saying i want to jog and jog to burn my fat? lol... well, the day before yesterday marks my first ever jogging trip in youth park... lol.. woke up at 6 to shower, prepare my cheese omelette and off i go!

We(me and vin) reached youth park at 7.45. I was amazed at the new Youth Park. Everything was like so green and pleasing to the eyes. So we walk and walk from the carpark and then vin saw this swing and let her inner child gets the better of her but little does she realise, the rusting steel on the swing caused her hand( and mine ) to smell bloody. Presenting... Mad girl on the swing! lol

But we left it that way with the hope of attracting vampires.
But after awhile we couldn't stand that bloody smell so we went around look for a loo and embracing the beautiful nature of youth park at the same time. The toilet was SUPRISINGLY clean (not so clean actually but considering that youth park is a public place... you know what i mean). And then i saw a friend from PJKN

CY: Vin that girl looked awfully familiar.. wait... i think she's from PJKN... I dun think she recognises me, she's in the same foster home(PJKN program whereby we are assigned to a foster home in a village) as mine

Vin: oh then? call her name then

CY: I forgot, hehe, but i think i should greet her, she should be able to remember cause i'm wearing the humongous PJKN track. Should i go greet her?

Vin: What if she don't remember? Maybe you should walk in front of her and flaunt your pants if she looked at you and smile then you can go greet her

Vinny and her great ideas...

we strolled around the park while waiting for an ah pek (chucky) and then the monkey inside me had the urge of trying the monkey bar. So there we went towards the monkey bar to test my limits and to see if my strength and stamina deplete. Thank goodness i can still manage.

Then Chucky FINALLY came after we strolled the whole park. hahaha... we strolled around again and tried all the erm... what to you called those things... oh yea, the exercise gadgets... lol... some are quite fun to play at actually... lol..

Then after that, we tried the monkey bar again for the fun of it; and yea it is fun for me.
owh yea, the girl i mentioned earlier smiled at me. So i guess she recalled who am i and chucky as well, but chucky forgotten who she is.. tsk.. mean

OK now, the highlight of the day the badminton match.
WoT(vin and i) vs BOY(chucky)

nothing much betwwen our match actually. lol. We were sharing the court with the fan tai chi aunties so we took only a quater of actual badminton court.

Chucky's ah pek instinct caused him to get closer and closer to all the aunties praticing fan tai chi gracefully as we played... lol... Then one of the aunty came up to us while we took 5 and ask if she could join us. Vin and i were tired so we allowed chucky to play against aunty. lol


Chucky against the pretty and awesome aunty... lol

Well, as a part of the female society, we cheered for our pretty and awesome aunty... lol
as they played, we were on the bench shouting; AUNTY JIA YOU, AUNTY HEN YEH, AUNTY HEN PIAO LIANG ( we sorta like blab out any mandarin word we knew for cheering)

Final Result
Chucky-12
Aunty -14

HAHA!!!

After all that, Chucky brought us to a roadside hokkien mee stall for er... bruch. The hokkien mee wasn't bad, it was nice actually.

Then i dropped vinny home and send the books i owed her up and sat there for awhile while wendy lock herself in the room after she saw our gorgeous face. Another mad girl... And then later vin showed me her old album and ask me to spot which is her.. lol.. changed so much from 5 years old to upper six. couldn't really recognise her so her hint for me for all the pictures was the odd one out.
Then wendy took her guitar to test her abilities to tune.. wth... and performed a solo on her trumpet. And wendy confessed something by accident.. Right Wendy?? lol

ok that's about all on my jogging trip with vin and chucky...

*****THE END*****

Fergie-Finally, Legend of the Band-Dan Fogelberg and After all these years-journey

I'm loving this song from fergie... lol.... i always thought her song was blue... so this taught me, i should not judge a CD by it's cover and the singer.... Lol... honestly, i am never a fan of black eyed peas or her... but this song it's really nice... especially the lyrics and i loved it since i first heard it from lite fm, it's just that, i didn't know it's her... hahaha... thanks to my mom's friend who intro me this and the songs i downloadded(refer to the post after the previous one)

Fergie-Finally
Ever since I was a baby girl I had a dream
Cinderella theme
Crazy as it seems
Always knew that deep inside that there would come that day
But I would have to wait
Make so many mistakes
I couldn't comprehend
As I watched it unfold
This classic story told I left it in the cold
Walking through unopen doors that led me back to you
Each one unlocking more of the truth

I finally stopped tripping on my youth
I finally got lost inside of you
I finally know I needed to grow
And finally my mate has met my soul

[chorus]
Finally
Now my destiny can begin
Though we will have our differences
Something strange and new is happening
Finally
Now my life doesn't seem so bad
It's the best that I've ever had
Give my love to him finally

MMMMMMMM

I remember the beginning you already knew
I acted like a fool
Just trying to be cool
Fronting like it didn't matter
I just ran away
Put on another face
Was lost in my own space

Found what it's like to hurt selfishly
I was scared to give up me
Afraid to just believe
I was in a jealous, insecure, pathetic place
Stumbled through the mess that I have made

I Finally got out of my own way
I Finally started living for today
I finally know I needed to grow
And finally my mate has met my soul

[chorus]

Finally
Now my destiny can begin
Though we will have our differences
Something strange and new is happening
Finally
Now my life doesn't seem so bad
It's the best that I've ever had
Give my love to him finally

MMMMMMMM

Finally, Finally yea...

Finally
Now my destiny can begin
Though we will have our differences
Something beautiful is happening,is happening

Finally
Now my life doesn't seem so bad
It's the best that I've ever had
Give my love to him finally

Ohhhhhhhh!!

Finally, Finally...Finally....

And dan fogelberg... oh goodness, you guys should lste to this, it' so touching, it's written for his late father the leader of the bean hence the title

Dan Fogelberg-Leader of the Band
An only child
Alone and wild
A cabinet maker's son
His hands were meant
For different work
And his heart was known
To none --
He left his home
And went his lone
And solitary way
And he gave to me
A gift I know I never
can repay
A quiet man of music
Denied a simpler fate
He tried to be a soldier once
But his music wouldn't wait
He earned his love
Through discipline
A thundering, velvet hand
His gentle means of sculpting souls
Took me years to understand.
The leader of the band is tired
And his eyes are growing old
But his blood runs through
My instrument
And his song is in my soul --
My life has been a poor attempt
To imitate the man
I'm just a living legacy
To the leader of the band.
My brothers' lives were
different
For they heard another call
One went to Chicago
And the other to St. Paul
And I'm in Colorado
When I'm not in some hotel
Living out this life I've chose
And come to know so well.
I thank you for the music
And your stories of the road
I thank you for the freedom
When it came my time to go --
I thank you for the kindness
And the times when you got tough
And, pap, I don't think I
Said 'I love you' near enough --
The leader of the band is tired
And his eyes are growing old
But his blood runs through
My instrument
And his song is in my soul --
My life has been a poor attempt
To imitate the man
I'm just a living legacy
To the leader of the band
I am the living legacy
To the leader of the band.

there's the other one after all these years by journey... hahaha tonight is like so musical

After All These Years-Journey

A faded wedding photograph
You and me in our first dance
Our eyes are closed
We're lost in one sweet embrace
Since those days the world has changed
Our love remains the same
God knows we've had our share of saving grace

And I'm proud of all the blessings
You have given me
The mountains we have climbed to get this far
You learn to take the laughter with the tears
After all these years

You make it feel brand new
After the fires that we walked thru
Against the odds we never lost our faith

In a house we've made our own
Where our children all have grown
Precious moments time can not erase

Make a livin' up and down the gypsy highway
Seasons that we've beared to share apart
Somehow in my heart I always keep you near
After all these years

After all these years
You stood by me
The days and nights that I was gone
After all these years
You sacrificed, believed in me
And you stood strong
Cause with our love there's nothing left to fear
After all these years

After all these years
You stood by me
The days and nights that I was gone
After all these years
You sacrificed, believed in me
And you stood strong
Cause with our love there's nothing left to fear
After all these years

i'm not really good at poem and words... but if there's something to express anything in me, it'll be music... hahaha... download, sing a long if you want and enjoy... oya su mi na sai (Good Night/Sweet Dreams)
