Final Fantasy XIII East VS West Theme Song

Guess by now all the fans or non-fans of Final Fantasy XIII have already know that Leona Lewis will be singing for the English or International Version Final Fantasy. However does it really fits into the game or just pure propaganda for the game itself so it can be more famous?









I wake in the morning
Tired of sleeping
Get in the shower
And my make my bed alone
I put on my make up
Talk into the mirror
Ready for a new day, Without you
And i walk steady on my feet
I talk my voice obeys me

I go out at night
Sleep without the lights
And i do all of the things i have to
Keeping you on my mind
But when i think I'll be alright
I am always wrong cause


My hands
Don't wanna start again
My hands
No they don't wanna understand
My hands
They just shake it try to break whatever piece i may find
My hands
They only agree to hold
Your hands
And they don't wanna be without
Your hands
And they will not let me go
No they will not let me go


I talk about you now
And i do without crying
I go out with my friends now
I stay home all alone
And i don't see you everywhere
And i can say your name easily
I laugh bit louder
Without you

And i see diferent shades now
And i, I'm almost never afraid now
But when i think i'll be ok
I am always wrong cause


My hands
Don't wanna start again
My hands
No they don't wanna understand
My hands
They just shake it try to break whatever piece i may find
My hands
They only agree to hold
Your hands
No they don't wanna be without
Your hands
And they will not let me go
No they will not let me go


Sometimes i wait
I see them reaching out for you
Quietly break
whatever sheilds i spent so long building up
I cannot fake
Cause when they cry im almost broken ..??..
They miss holding my baby

My hands, My hands

No they don't wanna understand
They just shake it try to break whatever piece i may find


My hands
Your hands
They don't wanna be with us?
And they will not let me go
No they will not let me go
Here is the JP version theme song Kimi Ga Iru Kara (dont mistake this with another anime theme song)



Because you suddenly said, “it’s alright to cry”
I was somehow happy and smiled without a tear
Unfortunately, I’ve hurt you with overly clumsy words
Nevertheless you haven’t left me, but keep
supporting me in this way even now
surely…

The wishes and dreams I want to fulfil
All the feelings I want to send out
That in which I keep believing, summons a miracle
And will be connected to the future
I want to watch over you, always, yes always
Dear, my friend

Because you told me, “you will be alright”, at the time of our parting,
the loneliness I felt, disappeared beautifully with that single word
Opening a new door is something everyone is afraid of, but
when I remember how you've always encouraged me, I am filled with strength

I won’t surrender my honest feelings
All these honest words
If I can convey them with my voice, the future will spread out
Because you are in my heart, forever, yes forever
Dear, my friend

Even if I stop or seem to forget
I vow that I will always keep moving forward
The sky above me is shining a light
until the day I can meet you

I won’t surrender my honest feelings
All these honest words
If I can convey them with my voice, the future will spread out
The wishes and dreams I want to fulfil
All the feelings I want to send out
That in which I keep believing, summons a miracle
And will be connected to the future
I want to watch over you, always, yes always
Dear, my friend

This 2 song are quite different. Different not just in terms of the rhythm but also the situation they are describing.

My Hands is like a girl trying to forget her boyfriend but fail to do so, and keeps recalling the situation when both of them are together. Kimi Ga Iru Kara is like something separated the couple which are deeply in love but without giving up they continue go on and belief in the future.

Since i havent play the game and dont have a clear are the main plot of the story, i cant commend which is more suitable. However i feel that the JP version is on a more correct path, it is like describing Serah and Snow.

Leff 4 Dead 2 (L4D2)

Just got my copy of L4D2 from The Software Bontique which is a day early! Yeah maybe they know that it is my birthday today.... hahaha




This time no mousepad like L4D... instead it came with 5 poster. Beside that they is this Member card i dunno is for what magazine and some coupon for discount on purchasing some Steel series mouse, guess i will be spending more money.



Tonight will be Zombie killing night... COD MW2 will be thrown aside.

The LOST 5th WIP of Zudah non AB

This is an old old old post frm last year that i did not complete reason is I lost some of my picture due to corruption of my hdd last year. So this part will have some missing link to the final product.




So this is another way to cover the seam lines between 2 different parts, scribe them into panel line.




However not all parts of the mecha is suitable, just like the leg part shown below if you make a panel line in between them the MS will look abit awkward. So back to cementing... stick them back together.After they have dried up.... sand them up and you will be able to cover the gap between both parts.









Remember the earlier picture showing back of the hand with a panel line... this is the front part and i choose to cement it and the final product is like below.


Basically the whole Zudah is complete by now... leaving the touch up with weathering color. I would suggest you go buy the Gundam Weathering Marker to do the dirty job since it is much more easier and it wont damage your kit compare washing it with enamel paint (which i did so and some of my truster break off after doing so).

As for the weapon.... used the Burn Steel effect weathering marker to paint on it first then wipe them off with a cloth to create the metalic effect. Sry but i dun have the complete picture here since they are lost.


Apologize again for those ppl tat was following it earlier because most of the picture in the weathering part has been lost.... so thats all i can show. I will snap another picture of my final product sooner today.

Canon Powershot S90

Finally i got myself a brand new compact digital camera that has some functionalities of a DSLR (i said SOME). I hereby present you my brand new Canon Powershot S90, the new compact Powershot frm dear Canon.




What excites me, i would said it is a Canon compact that always give me a better White Balance than the others brand compact (not all of course but better than some that i toy before), finally a Manual Focus compact, yes I know Powershot G series & LX3 has Manual Focus but I dont really consider them COMPACT.




Size wise is S90 mostly becoz of its lens.

What so special.... like i said earlier compact digital camera with big sensor, although bit smaller than Panny LX3 but i still think Panny LX3 is not compact enough (Fans of Lumix LX3 pls dun flame me ok?). You can put S90 in your shirt's pocket and its feels way more lighter than the other same class compact (LX3, G10, G11,....).


The pop up flash is control by the software and its totally different from the LX3 press and pop up flash

However i will be honest with you ppl, this camera does have some downside that i find it really annoys me. The first one is its mode dial.... this thing is so hard to spin it that you may even break your nail doing so. The IXUS series have a better Mode Dial than this dude. Then is the control dial that allows you to spin with it is too sensitive sometimes it may get in your way when you are holding and focusing your camera.


This part sux... turning it is so damn hard.


Need to becareful tat you dun touch this wheel or your setting will be ruined

Things you need to be aware of are it has no hot-shoe like the LX3 and G-series Powershot, but since it is still a compact camera why would you want so much stuff on it, its all about ease of mobility. If you do find yourself really needing this stuff then go buy the LX3 or G series or maybe a DSLR.

Other things you need to be aware of is the figure prints attraction mechanism with this thing. It just look s dirty with all the finger prints and oil that get attracted to it.

Some important thing that all other brand camera should learn is the good function of the rotation wheel on the camera lens side.

So overall stuff i like about it, compact, light and easily pocketable, easy to learn menu, rotation wheel that can allow you do multiple settings in a spin, can shot RAW + some hight quality JPEG files and lots more that i still dun know yet.
