Checking the list

Let's see... last year's resolutions:
[1] Exercise and become fitter
[2] Practice dancing more often
[3] Get ears pierced
[4] Be more organized
[..] Forgot the rest

No more resolutions this year. I still have to work on the ones that I haven't accomplished for the past few decades.

HAPPY 2006!

A Quoi Ça Sert L'Amour

A very amusing and creative animation by Louis Clichy. Love the song too!

À Quoi Ça Sert L'Amour
Édith Piaf avec Théo Sarapo

À quoi ça sert l'amour?
On raconte toujours
Des histoires insensées
À quoi ça sert d'aimer?

L'amour ne s'explique pas!
C'est une chose comme ça!
Qui vient on ne sait d'où
Et vous prend tout à coup.

Moi, j'ai entendu dire
Que l'amour fait souffrir,
Que l'amour fait pleurer,
À quoi ça sert d'aimer?

L'amour ça sert à quoi?
À nous donner de la joie
Avec des larmes aux yeux...
C'est triste et merveilleux!

Pourtant on dit souvent
Que l'amour est décevant
Qu'il y en a un sur deux
Qui n'est jamais heureux...

Même quand on l'a perdu
L'amour qu'on a connu
Vous laisse un goût de miel
L'amour c'est éternel!

Tout ça c'est très joli,
Mais quand tout est fini
Il ne vous reste rien
Qu'un immense chagrin...

Tout ce qui maintenant
Te semble déchirant
Demain, sera pour toi
Un souvenir de joie!

En somme, si j'ai compris,
Sans amour dans la vie,
Sans ses joies, ses chagrins,
On a vécu pour rien?

Mais oui! Regarde-moi!
À chaque fois j'y crois!
Et j'y croirai toujours...
Ça sert à ça, l'amour!
Mais toi, t'es le dernier!
Mais toi, t'es le premier!
Avant toi, y avait rien
Avec toi je suis bien!
C'est toi que je voulais!
C'est toi qu'il me fallait!
Toi qui j'aimerai toujours...
Ça sert à ça, l'amour!...

What's the point of love?
Translated by Mimiche

He:
What's the point of love,
you hear so many ridiculous stories
that I fail to see the point of it

She:
Well, you can't explain love,
it's just like that,
it comes from nowhere and grabs you

He: (unconvinced)
I've heard that love
makes you suffer and cry,
so what's the point?

She:
What's love for? It brings us joy
even when we've got tears in our eyes
it's sad and wonderful

He:
I've heard that love cheats you
half of all people
aren't ever happy

She:
Even when you've lost it,
the love you had leaves you a taste of honey
love is eternal

He:
That's all very well,
but when all's over and done,
nothing's left but hurt

She:
All that seems upsetting now
will be a memory
of happiness one day

He: (finally gets it)
So, if I've understood,
without love in you life,
with its joys and sadness,
you've lived for nothing

Indeed! Yes! look at me!
I've always believed in love
and I always will.
That's what love is for.
You are the last,
and you are the first!
Before you there was nothing,
and with you I feel great.
It's you I want,
you I need,
and you I'll love for ever.
That's what love is about!

First Christmas Present

Mj gave me heart-shaped earrings on Saturday. My ears are not fully healed but I took out my studs in exchange for the new ones. They're so cute! It's been three months since I got my ears pierced. Wonder when they're going to heal...

Applications

Had dinner with the CT people. Interesting how they pick their candidates for the next project.

Joke of the day: Apparently JC signs off his emails with
" 你非常好看。我想跟你做爱。"

Which roughly translates to:
"You're really good looking. I want to make love to you."

Man, is this how he picks up Chinese chicks?

Sigh

The prof. finally sent me a rejection email. Why did he have to torture me for so long before giving me an answer? Giving me that tiny bit of hope and then crushing it with a three sentence email.

Well, I kind of expected it actually since he didn't get back to me for so long but still, there was hope. Guess I have to start looking for a new project. Sigh...

I can't motivate myself to do a talk. Not after I got rejected. Argh!!!
