I had such a depressing day, yesterday (Saturday). So, I thought, some blogthings quizzes might help:

You Make a Good First Impression

You probably are making a much better impression than you realize. Social situations can be a bit awkward for you at times, and you tend to over think what you say and do. If you make a social faux pas, you remember it a lot longer than anyone else does. Just relax and do your best. There are little things you can do to improve your social image. Express more of an interest in the people around you, and be a good listener. The secret of fascinating people is that they find everyone else fascinating!

What Kind of First Impression Do You Make?

How You Life Your Life

You seem to be straight forward, but you keep a lot inside. You tend to avoid confrontation and stay away from sticky situations. You tend to have one best friend you hang with, as opposed to many aquaintences. You have one big dream in your life, and you never lose sight of it.

How Do You Live Your Life?

People Definitely Like You

You are very well liked, and many people admire you. You are friendly, well mannered, and fun to be around. Of course, you're not perfect... but that's okay. Your friends are usually willing to accept you for who you are! What People Don't Like About You: People don't like that you can't defend your values and beliefs. You seem unreasonably stubborn. People don't like that you seem unnatural and stiff at times. You sometimes give off an impression of being standoffish or fake. People don't like that you secretly are annoyed by them. You may think they can't tell, but they can. What People Like About You: People like that you take responsibility for your actions and admit your mistakes. They appreciate your maturity. People like that you're interesting and intriguing. You always have something interesting to say. People like that you don't gossip or talk poorly of others. They trust that you will speak positively about them too.

Do People Like You?

You Follow Your Heart

You're romantic, sentimental, and emotional. You tend to fall in (and out of) love very quickly. Some may call you fickle, but you can't help where your emotions take you. You've definitely broken a few hearts, but you're not a heartbreaker by nature. Your intentions are always good, even if they change with the wind

Do You Follow Your Head or Your Heart?

The Keys to Your Heart

You are attracted to those who are unbridled, untrammeled, and free. In love, you feel the most alive when your partner is patient and never willing to give up on you. You'd like to your lover to think you are optimistic and happy. You would be forced to break up with someone who was ruthless, cold-blooded, and sarcastic. Your ideal relationship is open. Both of you can talk about everything... no secrets. Your risk of cheating is low. Even if you're tempted, you'd try hard not to do it. You think of marriage as something that will confine you. You are afraid of marriage. In this moment, you think of love as something you don't need. You just feel like flirting around and playing right now.

What Are The Keys To Your Heart?

You Are 57% Passionate, 43% Compassionate

You possess an ideal balance of passion and compassion. You definitely can get swept away and lose your head a little. But you're rarely a fool for love!

Is Your Love Style Passionate or Compassionate?

What Your Pizza Reveals

Your appetite is pretty average. You don't go overboard - but you don't deprive yourself either. You are a very picky pizza eater. Not any pizza will do. You fit in best in the Northeast part of the US. Your taste in food tends to favor what's rich and comforting. You prefer food that will definitely satisfy you. You are generous, outgoing, and considerate with your choices. You are carefree and friendly. You should consider traveling to Hawaii. The stereotype that best fits you is geek. You're the type most likely to order pizza to avoid leaving your computer.

What Does Your Pizza Say About You?

In a way, they did help a little bit.

But, it was David Archuletta's singing that made me feel better!

Translation of lyrics:

I want to be there for you
I want to love your shortcomings
To always make you happy
No matter what
I promise to be there

("I Want" by Once)

Translation of lyrics:

Looking at the beauty of your smile
Makes me quiet and gets me stunned
I sense the most beautiful love in my heart
While you’re holding me tight

("You Are Made for Me" by Ungu)

Translation of lyrics:

You’re my blood
You’re my heart
You’re my life
You complete me
Oh dear, you’re so perfect…perfect

("Perfect" by Andra & The Backbone)

Translation of lyrics:

It reminds me of a heart
Showered by dreams
Where you went to, love
The lonely trip
You took by yourself
Strengthen your heart, love

("Before Light" by Letto)

Even if the sky is uneasy
The leaves fall
But my heart for you love shines like twinkling stars
Lightening my soul

("Forever Love" by D'Cinnamon)

Lately, I've been turning into teenagers who are crazy about songs and try to memorize the lyrics.

I did that when I was 12-18 years old. I remembered every word of every song I loved. Afterwards, I didn't care that much.

And, now, suddenly, I don't know why...I become that young girl again. I collect lyrics.

Now, it's "Love of my Life" lyrics. It's a song by Queen. I guess Extreme sang it, too, back then when I was 14 or something, early 90's.

Love of my life...it's a sad song. But, I love to sing it because it has power inside the lyrics, the words. It's like you are trying to make your love of your life comes back to you. Well, the song doesn't tell if the love finally comes back or not. But, we have to appreciate the effort, don't you think?

So, let's sing together!

Love of my life - you've hurt me You've broken my heart and now you leave me Love of my life can't you see Bring it back, bring it back Don't take it away from me, because you don't know What it means to me Love of my life don't leave me You've taken my love, (all of my love) and now desert me Love of my life can't you see (Please bring it back) bring it back, bring it back (back) Don't take it away from me (take it away from me) Because you don't know (ooh ooh ooh know means to me) What it means to me Who will remember When this is blown over And everything's all by the way - (ooh yeah) When I grow older I will be there at your side to remind you How I still love you - (i still love you) Ooh, back - hurry back Please bring it back home to me Because you don't know what it means to me Love of my life Love of my life Ooh, ooh

Hady Mirza from Singapore!

The 6 of them were good. Yet, there is always a winner in every competition kan?

He deserves it. When I watched him sang with Jacklyn (Malaysia), well, I had to admit that they were good. And, Jacklyn really showed the aura of a star.

So, congrats, Hady...

Phuong Vy (Vietnam), Mao (Philippines), Abhijeet (India), Mike (Indonesia), Jacklyn, you were doing great...so, you're all also the winners, ok? *I saw a bit of sadness in their eyes although they seemed to also feel happy for Hady*

And, Mike, I just hope you can work harder...add more power to your voice yaaa...so Indonesia would love you more...(and eventually Asia as well as the whole world)

At first, I didn't remember anything about this song.  I didn't remember the title, I didn't remember how it sounds, I didn't remember the lyrics. But, I knew I looooove this song.

It's a famous song in around 1989-1992, sung by a lady, talking about wishing upon a star for someone she loves but she cannot see.

Then, thankfully suddenly it crossed my mind just like that right after I wrote this journal.

Here I present a little part of the lyric for you:

"Wishing On The Same Star"

It's so hard to leave you
I don't really wanna go
I don't wanna say goodbye to you
It's the last thing I wanna do
But I won't be sad now
Cuz til your in my arms again
You'll be inside of my heart
And wherever I go
We'll never really be apart

We'll be wishing on the same star
Looking at the same moon
When you're thinking of me, baby
I'll be thinking of you
And no matter where I go
I will be there with you
Wishing on the same star
Lookin at the same moon

...

No matter where you turn around
It's the same sun that keeps shining down
Wherever we'll be, I know that we'll be
Wishing on the same star
