Flavor of LIfe

I've posted about this song of my favorite singer Utada Hikaru, Flavor of Life. I've been asking Tsuyoshi for this song from his laptop but both of us kept on forgetting yesterday he passed me all Utada Hikaru's songs. Arigatou, Tusyoshi! He gave me this song in the afternoon and so far I've played it on my iTunes for 16 times and become my 3rd most play song on my iTunes. Why am I so crazy about this song? 

These few days I met my old classmates from year 1. Some are already working and some still looking for jobs. 4 years is really a short time. 6 more weeks and I have to say good-bye to SMU. One of my friends asked me if I regretted coming to SMU. I told her I hadn't. 'Cos SMU added a lot of flavors to my life, especially my CCA experience. But, now I feel my life is lack of flavor after my exchange trip. Recently I was not myself. I lost my interest and discipline to work hard to achieve my dream. I've been slacking for so long. Thanks to this song. I'll try hard to spice up my life.

It reminds me of how flavorful my life was this time of last year. I was so excited preparing to leave for Japan. And I remembered this song always reminded me every morning of adding flavor to my life 'cos Koh-chan always played this once he woke up. He played so many times that even Shine, Brother & Jonathan should have hated it. But for Hakaru, I'd have hated it too. haha.... Well, she's damn good! 

I still remembered when I reached Osaka 344 days ago, I heard this song again everywhere in Den-den town. That night was so cold (around 15'C) but I only had a thin and unfashionable jacket on my body. After my endurance reached its threshold, I bought a muffler and cap, which gave me so much warmth that I've liked wearing mufflers though it's quite weird to see guys wearing it in Singapore. I felt like it happened yesterday. Time flied so fast but it's still very clear in my memory. 

After that Kansai trip, I went to Tokyo and I still heard this song almost everywhere and it's become part of my memory for my Japan life. 

When I youtubed this song, I found out this guy who I think translated this song into English and sang it. I'd say he's good cos I can't sing Utada Hikaru's songs most of which are very high. But this guy has First Love and other songs in English.  

I hope that like last year this song will bring flavor to my life again this year. I know I can do it! Ja, ima kara ganbarimasu!
