(那时候的我,一直都在想,依赖和恋爱到底有什么不一样?如果过去一切的一切都只是我的错觉而已,那我过去的感觉也未免太过逼真,真实了。)

Hence, on the other point of view, it gives me a feeling of misery, difficult to get close to, alone, cool, and so on. And this is just simply represent me! Haha...

But who knows???
Maybe someday i will be Se7en instead of Four... Maybe my lucky lady Se7en will come to me... once again??? Who knows? Just let's hope so ^^

Beyonce - If I Were A Boy

Beyonce Knowles' new song "If I Were A Boy" ~~

This is a nice song... it makes me think a lot when hearing it repeat and repeat. Yes, "IF" there is really an "IF" in our real life, then maybe we can changes a lot of things which we had done and were regretted now. But i know that life is no turning back, there won't be any "IF" in our life; so "LIVE LIFE TO THE MAXIMUM", i think that's what everyone should do... until end of our day!!!

Do you agree with me??? Personally, i think it is damn correct.
