Life = Unfair

Originally written: April 25, 2009


If I...
only could turn back time...
If I...
only had the power...
I'd want to be able to save your life.

But Life is unfair.

If I...
only had enough money...
If I...
only could get what I want...
I'd go back to see you one last time to say good-bye.

But Life is unfair.

People come into our lives--
change who we are for the better...
and suddenly leave us---
to allow us to grow in change by ourselves.

Why is Life unfair?

I wonder why sometimes
people who do the greatest things
don't get to continue to live life showing that greatness.

Why is Life unfair?

Have they learned life's secret?
Or are they the secret to life?

In whatever it may be,
I am surely thankful to have had you,
as such greatness in my life.

After all this time,
I finally come to the truth that
life is fair...
because somehow life had given me you.

Forever & always.


Oh we miss you.

What does "kawaiixsarang" mean?

Okay, so first thing's first. I'm sorry because I almost always abandon this blog of mine! I guess I'm too preoccupied with school. & If I'm not doing homework/projects/or studying, I'm probably just too lazy to update anyway. xD My apologies! I'll try to update at least once a week! *;]


So anyway... I have this collection of different language books, mostly they're Japanese with few Korean/Mandarin Chinese. It ranges from dictionaries to phrasebooks to grammar-sentence structure booklets to workbooks... etc! (As you can tell, I have a lot! Hahaha!) I have a hobby of learning/studying East Asian languages. (: I guess it all started in Middle School when I took Japanese as an elective and I ended up watching Taiwanese/Korean dramas during the summer. I suddenly became intersted in Asian culture, ethics, langauge, and not to forget... FOOD! >;]


This is where my blog title's answer come in... "kawaiixsarang" is my username for most of the sites I use. Kawaii is the Japanese word for cute. Japanese girls use this word more than half the time; they refer to almost everything as kawaii. :) As for me... I love cute Asian things, like Sanrio or Morning Glory... and those Japanese food drawings/plushies with faces! I really adore those kind of things! Hahaha! :]


Sarang
is the Korean word for love. When outgoing-Koreans pose for a picture, they form a heart with their arms & say "SARANGHAE" which means I love you. It's kinda like saying "Cheese!" haha... but in a cute way! xD I used sarang because my favorites are comedy/romance dramas & movies... and 'LOVE' plays a big part in my life! :D Well... to anyone's life really :P Oh yeahhh... and the x in kawaiixsarang is just there to seperate the two different langauges. Lol, nothing special. =)

When you translate the entire name together it becomes cute love. What more is there to describe my interests?! Hahaha. When it's the right time... I want to find cute love. Something not so ordinary; an adventure that will not bore me. Haha *;] But as for now... I'm gonna keep studying these languages during my spare time! Perhaps one day, my prince charming will come... with chinky eyes and a sushi bento(lunchbox) for me! LOL. Kidding. (:

Japanese: Oyasumi nasai!
Korean: Annyonghi jumuseyo!
Chinese: Wan an!
English: Good night!
