Sunao na Niji

--> It's me getting all Emo-ed just because of a new anime song addiction for the previous half of May and 1st week of June...

Sunao na Niji

Honest Rainbow

Original / Romaji Lyrics PLUS

English Translation

Kodomo no koro mita niji wo ima miageru to
Nanairo de wa naku yagate kiri ga kakari
Jikan wa sugi kawatte yuku
Kimi wo sagashitemo doko ni mo inai

Looking up at the rainbow that I saw as a child now
There are no seven colors, and before I know it, the fog starts
Time passes and things continue to change
Even if I search for you, I won't find you

Me wo toji kokoro hiraite mata nagamete mitemo
Nani mo kawaranai no ka tashikamete mitai

I close my eyes and open my heart, so if I look up at it again
Will anything have changed? I need to know

Sunao ni narereba
Kono kiri ga hareru to kokoro ni negai sou sakenderu
Nanika wo nakushite shimatta koto de
Sou te ni shita mono mo kitto arun darou
Dakedo mada bokura wa otona ni tomadoi
Ikite yuku sube sagashiteru

If I became accustomed to being honest
Maybe the fog would clear; I cry a prayer in my heart
If you lose something
That's right, surely you gain something as well, don't you?
Even if we're still confused by adults
We'll keep searching for a way to live

Ame ga yamu to fuini kimi wa hodoukyou ni nobori
Sora wo yubisashite mujaki ni waratteta
Kieiru you na sukete niji wo
Nanimo ienai mama nagamate ita ne

When the rain stops you suddenly cross the bridge
And pointing up at the sky, you laughed innocently
As if it had vanished, the rainbow
Became transparent and as we looked at it we were unable to say anything

Hontou wa ano toki zutto
Kimi no yokogao wo miru koto ni muchuu ni natteta
Wasurenai tame ni

The truth is, back then
I was completely entranced by your profile
So I can't forget it

Sunao ni narezu ni
Tada kimi no namae wo kokoro no naka de sou sakenderu
Kimi wo ushinatte made te ni shitai mono nado
Nai hazu na no ni doushite darou
Mereta kami wo dzutai ochiru no wa
"Sayonara" to iu namida datte ne

I can't become an honest person
So I just cry your name inside my heart
Why am I not able to gain anything
Until I lose you?
My hair got wet as my tears
Fell from saying "goodbye"

Ame agari wa ima mo
Hodoukyou kara semai sora miage
Kakehashi wo sagasu kedo
Kimi no moto e tadoritsukenainda
Monokuro no sekai ni iru

Even now, after the rain
I look up at the narrow sky
From the bridge and though I search for you
I can't make it to where you are
In a monochrome world

Kotoba ni dekizu ni
Tojikometa omoi wo ima sara kimi ni toikakete miru
Yowasa no sei ni shite nigedashita no wa
Sou kimi no hou ja nai boku no hou da yo

I can finally ask you
The words I couldn't say and the feelings I kept locked away for so long
Running away was the cause of my weakness
That right, it's not the way for you, it's my way

Sunao ni narereba
Kono kiri ga hareru to kokoro ni negai sou sakenderu
Nanika tarinakute mo ima aru iro de
Sou boku no sekai wo nurikaete mitai
Itsuka mata kimi ni aeru nara
Sunao ni omoi tsutaeru kara
Sunao na niji wo egaite miru kara

If I became accustomed to being honest
Maybe the fog would clear; I cry a prayer in my heart
Even if I don't quite have enough of a certain color
I want to repaint my world
And if we can meet again someday
Because I'll express my feelings honestly
I'll draw an honest rainbow

LYRICS in Kanji::

子供の頃　見た虹を　今見上げると
七色ではなく　やがて霧がかかり
時間は過ぎ　変わってゆく　君を探しても　何処にもいない

目を閉じ　心開いて　また眺めて見ても
何も変わらないのか　確かめてみたい

素直になれれば　この霧が晴れると心に願い　そう叫んでる
何かを失くしてしまった事で
そう　手にしたものもきっとあるんだろう
だけどまだ僕等は大人に戸惑い　生きてゆく術　探してる

雨が止むと　不意に君は　歩道橋に上り
空を指差して　無邪気に笑ってた
消え入るような　透けた虹を　何も言えないまま　眺めていたね

本当は　あの時ずっと
君の横顔を見る事に夢中になってた　忘れない為に

素直になれずに　ただ君の名前を心の中で　そう叫んでる
君を失ってまで手にしたいものなど　無い筈なのにどうしてだろう
濡れた髪を伝い落ちるのは　「さよなら」という涙だったね

雨上がりは今も　歩道橋から狭い空見上げ　架け橋を探すけど
君の元へ　辿り着けないんだ　モノクロの世界にいる

言葉に出来ずに　閉じ込めた思いを今更君に　問いかけてみる
弱さのせいにして逃げ出したのは
そう　君の方じゃない僕の方だよ

素直になれれば　この霧が晴れると心に願い　そう叫んでる
何か足りなくても今ある色で　そう　僕の世界を塗り替えてみたい
いつかまた君に会えるなら　素直に思い伝えるから
素直な虹を描いてみるから

Welcome to NCPAG!

Is this some sort of title that sounds a lot like the anime: "Welcome to NHK"?


Oh well, I could never express how happy I am to be in a new College within University of the Philippines- Diliman. It's such a great college--starting from the new college-mates and to the highest officials of the college. They are not mean, scary, and temperamental unlike the ones that we had at the College of Engineering. College of Public Administration is by far better that the College of Engineering.


I met the people I made friends with during the previous sems. They all were shocked upon knowing that I'm in the same college as them, and that I'm taking majors this sem as they are. Well they all welcomed me with a smile and told me some assuring words about my new majors prof, and that it made me feel so much welcome.


I promised to myself that:


1. I WON'T return to the College of Engineering building- Melchor Hall EVER AGAIN!
2. I WILL study HARDEST this time.
3. I will surrender Hazel-PC every Monday and he/she will come back to me every Friday afternoon.


And so the rest are resolutions.


The enrollment process was so easy it only took me 3 hours to complete everything. When I was at Eng'g, it took me 4 days to complete a whole regular registration! Oh my, it's so much easier at CPA, ne?


I won't regret this transfer. I swear that.

I Kinda Survived... or Definitely I Did Survive

There are a lot of changes and we can't do nothing about it. I see that my life is about to change as well. I do believe that something's going to happen. And I'm expecting it. Soon enough, the change has been done.

It was two days ago when the results were up. I didn't think that I'll make it. I just told myself that whatever happens, I won't lose track and continue on living. Besides, as I was thinking, work opportunities were coming along. If I won't get accepted, definitely I'll take the job offer. But then, it did turn out as planned from long ago which I wasn't so sure of and here I am now: a BA PA student under probation for 1 semester.

I made it to the College so I will make sure that I will change my ways now. I'll probably stop being online at always and concentrate on my subjects.

If I fail again, I wonder where on earth will I belong.

I now love UP Diliman, and I won't be happy if I get out of it this early. I met a lot of good friends already, and I can't leave them this easy.

Ganbare to me! Yay me! :P

80th Post!

I just happened to be at Tiendesitas earlier. My dad and I are looking for a new place to eat, so we tried the food area there. And we found the first one absolutely great.

To be continued. :P

I Love Multiply!

When it comes to posting a new message, a new picture, and an announcement, Multiply really does the best job over Friendster. Its user-friendly interface allows anyone to do stuff easier than usual. I really recommend to you guys to have a Multiply account where you can upload your pics. Its drag-and-drop feature makes it easy--you only have to open the window where your files are (the pictures) and then select those you want and leave those you hate. Then drag them altogether in the window at your browser. Click the button and start uploading. In an instant, they are there!

So then no need to select and that from a window about to pop-out. It causes hanging in your browser. With Multiply, you'll never experience that. It's really as simple as that.

In blogging, Multiply has also an edge. There, you can easily apply certain fonts and colors. Well, it has an almost same interface with Friendster, but this one has a more choices in fonts. You can personalize it more precisely than what you can do here at FS.

With this, I'm not telling you to switch friend networks. I'm just stating my reasons and pointing out facts.

Too Many Nonsense Things To Do

Now that it's vacation at last, I'm in total confusion. I have finally all the freedom to do my usual things--TV, sleep-late-wake-up-late mode, PC 20/7, go out with my barkada-- but I cannot do them since I don't feel like it.

So I began downloading using my Hazel-PC, the weird automatic name of my laptop, and that is one of the main problems I encounter. Our DSL connection is cumbersome--not because it's heavy but because I had to go through much before its IP settings is alright and ready for net. Hazel-PC must stay at one place so that the connection won't go off. The modem must be at one secured place so that it would be alright. And my UTP cable's RJ-45 clip also was broken. I'm so upset.

Anyway, to ensure that my connection stays and my downloads are finished, this PC has not been TURNED OFF. Yes. That's true. For 3 straight days, this has been plugged. I wonder how our electricity bill turns out. Maybe I'll be at fault again for the skyrocketing bill. That's the other reason why they want me to stay out of home and enroll for summer--to save money.

According to my mom and dad, I am doing too many nonsense stuff and that my activities are just according to my senseless whim. I kind of agree with them. Sure, my media addiction requires more money than other addictions since I have the tendency to make sure I'm updated and all the necessary mumbo jumbos are to be done, but this is just me. I can't stay away from anime, movies, books, internet, games, manga and TV that easily especially now it's vacation.

I'm planning to skip buying a new mobile phone--the one that's supposed to be my ticket and vacation expense at Singapore-- since I wanted a new EHD (external hard drive) or an upgrade for MR-PC-Reborn, my 5-year old desktop computer. I don't think any of the two would be granted that easily since stuff have high prices nowadays. Oh well, I'll just have to request a cheaper one. I want to record TV shows so I guess it would have to be the PC to TV converter.

I'm so bored. Really bored.


Still, I have many nonsense stuff left to be accomplished. I better start updating my fan fiction and my fiction... and do my English paper due tomorrow.

Can’t Go On Like This… (Dramatic Multiply Post)

What has gotten into me?
He came by and went in front of me and whispered an unusual "Ohayou".
I greeted him back. We smiled.

There were a lot of  things that had occurred after that. We chatted. I seemed to ignore him. I tried my best to live with what I've promised to myself the other day-- I should not think and mind him even when he's around.
He sits beside me. I wavered... suddenly, I felt empty. Why can't I be able to say something other than my expressions of amazement when it comes to others? I can't even watch nor motivate him as he plays his turn. I can't look. I can't fall for him any longer.

Dame yo. Zettai... dame yo...

The ambiance is light when our group mates are around. I was able to tell tales from our English 1. He's listening. I told him some things about me-- even to others. I said I dislike my name. He mentioned nut. Yes, that's exactly why! He repeated my name, again and again. I said I'm irked. He stops, smiling. I smiled, but contentedly to myself. I saw that smile again. His stoic and poker face sometimes confuse me. He interacts with others. I stood beside the bench and I am reading  the book.

We talked about my liking on basketball. I said I do not play, and I'm definitely weak when it comes to balls. He suddenly mentioned before that that "I play," we all looked at him. "Really?" I asked, "Yeah, it's not obvious, right?" he replies jokingly. Joanna thought for a while, "You're tall. So I think so you can." I thought for a while too. Wow. Wow. This is so not the person I want to leave. Not the one I would grieve on because I cannot meet him anymore after summer. Not the person I won't be able to spend the rest of my nonsense days... not the person who could change my life...

It's actually him.

And it saddened me.

It's my turn again.I play, get a zero. He was the one scoring.

It can't be helped either. I end up laughing with him, standing so close to him, staring at him. I think of other things to think of. Ah, the book. yes. I borrowed it in order to set a path for me. I should read it while he's around--  that way I won't mind him. His closeness triggers me to glance at him occasionally.

He glances back. We stared at each other for a brief moment. He turns back, I do too.

This is getting less awkward, but there's this time...

We sit beside each other. Nothing to do. I wasn't scoring. I heard him puff a bit of a sigh, or was it a "Hn". We do not speak with each other. Silence. Occasional laughs by our fellow group mates.

John was making me laugh. He was telling that the shot was "for you". I laughed away, watching my pins closely...

Going back to 'him', he motivated me, telling me to slow down and analyze my moves. I just smiled. I spare balled. After my turn it was his, and I peeked as I read the book I am reading. I stared at his back. His blue and white shirt appeals to me. I like him a lot. And it breaks me slowly. The more that I know I'm definitely attracted to him, the more I get hurt inside.

This is not happening!

Yuji strikes. I cheered. We all cheered. Thus, Yuji's angels were formed.
