(^_') Hezzie's Thoughts

Just when I thought that I love Alice that much this other girl name "Black Berry Bush" came to me... Cloaked in a red hood she whispered... "Take me home..."

I was given about a month's time to send postcard to this company called CWC in Japan which can give us people outside of Japan a chance to own BBB through a lottery. BBB is limited to only 50 pieces in Asia, Australia and New Zealand... Imagine sharing 50 pieces with so many other collectors what chance will I get?! The guys at CWC will draw the postcard, something like a lucky draw and select only a small ammount of people to be eligible to buy BBB.

Back to the postcard... Today is 21st March... Dateline for the postcard is 27th March... How am I going to get the postcard to arrive there on time? No way unless I pay for special postal service which is going to cost me a bomb... I had one month to do it... but I only write the postcard yesterday night... and I didn't even send it this morning!

I heard from some seller that by the time BBB arrive Malaysia after the effort of people trying to send in postcards, and people buying to scalp them the price might be over RM1k... which is ridiculous!

I was never a Blythe collector and I dont think I want to be one... It's just a too expensive hobby... Despite having to collect the other stuff which already cost a bomb... I dont know why but I was very attracted to the latest series like "Cute and Curious" - Alice and "Black Berry Bush" - Red Riding Hood... The fairy tale theme... perhaps I like fairy tale?

Here's a lovely description about BBB... The concept and everything fits just right for the fairy tale... It's amazing... No wonder she's so precious...

The dress for the Little Red Riding Hood comes with a brown skirt and a white blouse and an apron so that she can deliver a bottle of wine, cheese and bread to her grandmother just like in the story. The red hood embroidered with red dots is reversible; you can enjoy the strawberry pattern on the other side, too! Wear the black vest and a pair of boots together with a pair of wolf ears , big enough to hear your voice.Blythe is the he is the big bad wolf! Now change to a cotton nighty with pink ribbons and a cap and presto, she is now the poor grandmother!

Black Berry Bush wears her hair in a bob at shoulder length with curls at the tips. She also wears bangs. Her eyes come in special Her eyes　looking left is sky blue (with a hologram sheet) to maker her eyes twinkle as if she is gazing at the starring sky as the Little Red Riding Hood heads towards her grandma's. Her eyes looking right is green (with a hologram sheet) as if reflecting the green forest. Looking straight ahead is raspberry emulating the eyes of the wolf and also looking straight ahead is gray.

Her skin is pale white, a special color and her Strawberry eye change charm is also a special edition. Furthermore, the package is also super special. You can use it as a backdrop for your play. It is as if Blythe has wandered into a forest in a fairy tale.

Spent the weekend shopping and celebrating Nick's birthday. It was a cool party he held at Pacific Regency with a some of his cool friends... About 30+ of us was gathered in the service apartment playing games, eating and drinking... The party's theme is Pyjamas night... it's funny to see many people in real pyjamas... What I mean by real Pyjamas is those like what Banana in Pyjamas wear!  Long sleeves, long pants... patterned with stripes or little animals... It's so funny... the guys will even have to wear lipsticks for some reason Nick's friends are very fun people, they actually played Island Dance and Limbo Rock!

Some of us were afraid about a raid or eventually gets complaints from the hotel management. In the end the party have to end early anyway coz we're really too loud... Will continue the rest of the story next time with the details when I get the pictures...

Was trying hard to forget about Alice so spend some money going shopping... buying new clothes and stuff... Ended up spending much more than actually getting Alice for myself... Seems like the chance is low... I told myself perhaps I could spend a bit of money buying some useful stuff like working clothes I needed... Then I wouldn't have enough to get Alice... So I went shopping spree... Now when I looked back at Alice's pic... My heart aches...

Cerf-volant
Volant au vent
Ne t'arrete pas
Vers la mer
Haut dans les airs
Un enfant te voit
Voyage insolent
Troubles enivrants
Amours innocentes
Suivent ta voie
Suivent ta voie
En volant

Cerf-volant
Volant au vent
Ne t'arrete pas
Vers la mer
Haut dans les airs
Un enfant te voit
Et dans la tourmente
Tes ailes triomphantes
N'oublie pas de revenir
Vers moi

VIES MONOTONES
Paroles et musique: Gérard Manset, 1984

Nous avons des vies monotones,
Rien dans le coeur, rien dans la main.
Comme on ne dit plus rien à personne,
Personne ne nous dit plus rien.

Nous avons des vies monotones,
Des maisons vides et fermées,
Des portes lourdes et blindées
Que n'ouvriront plus jamais personne.

Mais comme il faut bien qu'on vive,
S'asseoir avec le même convive,
C'est pas le festin qu'on croyait,
Pas de fusée, pas de vin, pas de sorbet,
Y'a plus qu'à tirer la nappe à soi,
Continuer chacun pour soi.

Nous avons des vies monotones,
Rien dans le coeur, rien dans la main,
Comme on n'attend rien de personne,
On n'a plus réponse à rien.

Nous avons des vies monotones,
Entourés d'hommes et de chiens,
Ceux qui mangent dans notre main,
Ce sont ceux-là qu'on abandonne

Mais comme il faut bien qu'on vive
Ce soir avec le même convive,
C'est pas la fête qu'on croyait
Où sont les lumières qui brillaient.
Y'a plus qu'à tirer la nappe à soi,
Continuer chacun pour soi.

Nous avons des vies sans mélange
Qui s'en iront de tous côtés,
Raides et droites comme une planche
Sur l'océan de pauvreté.

Translated by a French speaking friend...

we have monotonous lives
nothing in the heart
nothing in the hand
like no one says anything to anybody

we have monotonous lives
empty and closed houses
heavy and armored doors that will open for nobody ever again

but we have to live well
to sit with the same guest
its not the feast that one believes
not the wine
not the sorbet
more to pulling the tablecloth to oneself
continuing every man for himself

we have monotonous lives
nothing in the heart
nothing in the hand
one does not wait for anyone
one does not have any response

we have monotous lives
between men and dogs
those who eat off our hands
those are the ones that give up

but we have to live well
this evening with the same guest
it is not the festival which one believes
where the list are shining
its more to pulling the tablecloth to oneself
continue every man for himself

we have lives without mixture
which will go away on all sides
rights like a board
on an ocean of poverty

The lyrics above is one of the song from the movie Les Choriste (The Chorus). One of the many good foreign movies I've watched. I'm listening to the OST at work everyday and it inspired me in many ways... Do check it out!

Wrote this when I'm in search of a forbidden love...

"Alice...
If you love don't leave me... don't make me suffer...
Don't leave me lingering in the pain of the love you left me...
Don't let me grow hungry to see you once again
Don't deceive me with your beauty...
My eyes have set the thought of being with you for the rest of my life
I want to smell your gold sweet hair
I want to touch your pale smooth skin
I want to see myself in your eyes
Like the way you yourself in mine
I want to undress you and cover you with the warmth of my hug
I can't even find the words to tell you so I'm the only one who really knows
Through a million faces in the crowd you will see me shinning through
Coz only with you my world will glow
Can we share our love through all eternity?"

*Dont get me wrong, Alice is only a precious girl who cost RM699... which I can't afford to have her in my arms... LOL*
