Just changed my blogsong to "For Fruits Basket". Rly love the soothing tune and it's more compatible wif my blog bg (Think Fairytale). Anyways, I still rmb 2 years ago when I first started watching Fruits Basket, it was during Dec hols and because of this, I was often late for choir practise. And I can still rmb they use to make fun of me cus I watch that show (Title sounds weird). But.. It's a realli great show (anime actually), mainly comedy but the storyline and characters are nicely developed. Towards the ending, it grew really sad, and I admit I cried while watching it. Esp the final episode when they overcame their inner struggle. Oh, this show has almost no violence, its about a family that is cursed wif the 12 animals of the zodiac. When they are hugged by a person from the opposite sex, they will transform to their corresponding animal. The main characters are Yuki and Kyou, mouse and cat. Though cat isn't an animal of the zodiac, but there was a myth that it was the mouse who deceived the cat and end up the cat did not go to the party. And in that show, the 2 of them keep fighting and bickering, but in the last episode, they finally became friends. But it isn't abrupt, throughout the show there were improvements. I finished watching 16 discs in one day haha, 4 more discs to go! It's a really great anime and I reccommend everyone to watch it and not be put off by the lame title (Actually, up to now, I have no idea why they call it Fruits Basket)

So nostalgic, the year I watched this video, the month I watched this video, is the same year and month I met her. Haiz, and I can still rmb when WP told me that they were discussing why I was late for choir and the moment I came in Mr Yong asked isit I watch Fruits Basket again. Haha..... I'm truly touched by that show, it teaches alot of values and if you like crying, that show can help u cry too, but mostly it will make you laugh.

NEways, I hope, if you are reading this, crank up your speakers and just listen to the song, it's realli nice. The lyrics also have alot of meaning to me. K, since it's in jap, I shall post the translation here:

Totemo ureshikatta yo kimi ga warai kaketeta
Subete wo tokasu hohoemi de

I was so happy as you laughed
With that smile that melts everything

Haru wa mada tookute tsumetai tsuchi no naka de
Mebuku toki wo matteta n da

Far away within the cold earth, Spring was still waiting
For the moment the first sprout appeared

Tatoeba kurushii kyou dato shite mo
Kinou no kizu wo nokoshite ite mo
Shinjitai kokoro hodoite yukeru to

Although today is painful
And yesterdays's scars still remain
I want to believe I'll be able to free my heart

Umare kawaru koto wa dekinai yo
Dakedo kawatte wa ikeru kara
Let's stay together itsumo

I can't be reborn
But I can change, so
Let's stay together always

Boku dake ni waratte sono yubi de nee sawatte
Nozomi bakari ga hateshinaku

Laugh only for me, please touch me with those fingers
Only wishes are free from bounds

Yasashiku shitai yo mou kuyamanu you ni
Nageki no umi mo koete ikou

I want to be kind
Let's finally cross this sea of sadness and regret

Tatoe kurushii kyou dato shite mo
Itsuka atataka na omoide ni naru
Kokoro-goto subete nagedaseta nara

Even if today is painful
Someday it will become a warm memory
If you free your heart

Koko ni ikiteru imi ga wakaru yo
Umare ochita yorokobi wo shiru
Let's stay together itsumo

Here I'll understand the meaning of living
And know the joy of having been born
Let's stay together always

Tatoeba kurushii kyou dato shite mo
Itsuka atataka na omoide ni naru
Kokoro-goto subete nagedaseta nara

Even if today is painful
Someday it will become a warm memory
If you free your heart

Koko ni ikiteru imi ga wakaru yo
Umare ochita yorokobi wo shiru
Let's stay together itsumo

Here I'll understand the meaning of living
And know the joy of having been born
Let's stay together always
