Commercials

After coming back to HK for a few days and watching TV, I realised that a substantial amount of commercials have gone to cater for...lets say...more "mainland-ish" tastes. But maybe these commercials have existed for a long time, and I may have just turned a blind eye.
But this one is one of my favorites - shows Hong Kong people can still be creative.

Since its also NBA Finals Time, just wanted to share my favorite muppets video...NBA atmosphere is so different here compared to the States.

To close, I would like to say: Go LAKERS!!!!!

The boy who wouldn't sleep

I think that during the course of childhood, there has been a time when we refuse to sleep.
I remember I would stay awake and read, or play on my gameboy. When I got a little older it was aimlessly surfing the net. It was 56k then.
In my youth I used to pride myself in being able to survive without sleep. Sleepovers would be sleep-less, and full of fun pursuits.
I used to refuse sleep, to conquer sleep was something I would do quite often back then.
I used to be the boy who wouldn't sleep.

But that was back then.

Right now, sleep is my companion. my necessity, my purpose.
Now I cannot survive without sleep.
If I don't get enough sleep during the week, I make up for it on weekends.
But as for tonight, I'm still the boy who wouldn't sleep.
Paper and presentation for tomorrow, how will I fare tonight?

That remains to be seen.

Coldplay - Viva la vida

Hooked to this song at the moment. What I find interesting is that no one really knows what this song is about.
This song tells a story, but is it just a fabricated story? or is it based on a real one? I guess only the author knows. There has been a lot of speculation and interpretations, but unless the author confirms it, nobody knows if it is true or not.

Thus is the nature of composition. Every composition has meaning, but it doesn't mean everyone can understand it. Sometimes the meaning is straightforward. Sometimes it is obscure and known only to the composer. Other times, it might seem straightforward, but in fact the meaning is totally different. Only the author knows. The author alone chooses to reveal the meaning. maybe he likes to keep the audience guessing, speculating, theorising. Maybe he wants the audience to discover the meaning for themselves. Maybe it was only composed for one person, or for the author himself.

"I know of a little boy, who'd like to play with a little girl. All day long there'd be joy, in our very own dream world"
