Run Devil Run

I’m not that person to be in love with any foreign-languaged songs, like Korean or Japanese. But due to the influence from my classmates, Girls’ Generation proved me that their songs are the best foreign-languaged choices for someone like me.                        


  Well, you know, I’m not obsessed with K-Pop at all so only three of their Korean songs attracted me. But for their Japanese songs, I’d listened to most of their hits! And I’m telling you my favourite ones.
  When I heard Galaxy Supernova, their second latest Japanese single, it’s like, something really different, the rhythm is poppy, catchy and it really makes me wanna dance with the girls. I like that song song very much and I even had a blog for it. But something that I’m not satisfied about the song is its music video ‘cuz there is no solo scenes of them and the whole video somehow looks blurr. But I still love the song anyway and I’m glad that its lyrics are easy for me to sing along.
  Then two of my favourite foreign-languaged songs ever, Mr. Taxi and Run Devil Run. Undeniably, they are like, Oh My God – It’s so fantastic! I really fell for the rhythm, the beat and the magnificent way they sang it. The lyrics are catchy but are just a piece of cake for me to sing along with the music.
  I like their dance step for Mr. Taxi, especially at the first chorus, Sooyoung at the middle! ^_^ My friend literally danced it before my eyes at school and it was like ‘Wow’. Isn’t it cool to wave your hands that way they did? And I think that I’m in love with the lyrics of Run Devil Run. Of course, the Japanese version one. Once I heard it on Youtube, and it wouldn’t be an easy task for me to stop rhyming to it. It’s just something that will boggle your mind on why is it such appealing to you.                            
  The other two Japanese songs by SNSD that I think notable enough here are All My Love Is For You and Time Machine. Perhaps you find that the musics sound weird but if you really put on your earphones and have a heart to heart moment with the girls, you’ll get what I mean about the awesomeness hiding in these songs. These two aren’t as poppy as the songs I mentioned before this but they own classical grace and attractive genre of danco. And they’re not something that you can really piss of to skip ahead on your playlist.
  So, now, I’d really look forward to some more Japanese music by Girl’s Generation which are much more enthralling than their past works in the future.

The Human Being—A Complex Organism

Human beings are complex and special organisms as there is a complex organisation of cells in the human body. The organisation in the human body is summarised as follows: Cells—> Tissues—> Organs—> Systems—> Organism.   The same type of cells which carry out a specific function are organised into a tissue. For examples, a group of muscle cells form a muscle tissue while a group of nerve cells form a nerve tissue. They are organised to work together to perform specific functions as the result of cells in the human body do not work individually.     An organ is a group of tissue that cooperates to carry out a specific life process. For examples, a group of muscle tissues, epithelial tissues and connective tissues form blood vessels. Several organs are organised into a system. Each system consist of several organs which are organised to carry out life processes such as respiration, reproduction and digestion.     Various systems in th...

I am Euan Thum. This is my story.

No one is born a leader, but no one is born to stay shy and quiet forever too. I was a timid and unconfident boy who grew to celebrate individuality.  I discovered my passion in poetry in high school and I never stopped exploring what I can create. I co-founded a society in college to share the love for poetry and had organised poetry recitals to help others discover its beauty. My poems have now been featured in several international publications and journals.  During the global pandemic, I released two poetry collections for charity, which have raised more than RM1k combined! Poetry was an incredible flotation device and artistic outlet for me during the pandemic, and being able to share my art with the world allows me to connect with others in ways I never imagined before.  Over the years, I became committed to enrich the community around me through volunteering and fundraising. This propels me towards fighting for important causes in our society including wildlife con...

Working With Passion

I've long worked behind the lens. When I started experimenting with photography almost a decade ago, I was heavily criticised for the wrong angles, the misfocused subjects, and my pointless artistry. I tried and tried without proper equipment or professional guidance, but the determination to validate my photography skills had kept me going against the currents of criticism. In the midst of helping others 'capture a moment', as I would call it, I saw myself starting to request for similar photos to be taken for me, in hopes of keeping memories of my own in photographs. One person told me once, 'You're kinda like a model'. That was about 4 years ago, when I had finished high school for a couple of months. My hair was flowing a little freer than before and I had more time on my hands to run around Johor Bahru with my friends, looking for adventures and photoshoots. That 5-word line was an inspiration I did not see coming. In fact, I did not realise it had done the...
