➜ Lyrics -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- 

I've been reading books of old
The legends and the myths
Achilles and his gold
Hercules and his gifts
Spider-man's control
And Batman with his fists
And clearly I don't see myself upon that list

But she said, where'd you wanna go?
How much you wanna risk?
I'm not looking for somebody
With some superhuman gifts
Some superhero
Some fairytale bliss
Just something I can turn to
Somebody I can kiss

I want something just like this
Doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo
Doo-doo-doo, doo-doo
Doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo
Oh I want something just like this
Doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo
Doo-doo-doo, doo-doo
Doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo

Oh I want something just like this
I want something just like this

I've been reading books of old
The legends and the myths
The testaments they told
The moon and its eclipse
And Superman unrolls
A suit before he lifts
But I'm not the kind of person that it fits

She said, where'd you wanna go?
How much you wanna risk?
I'm not looking for somebody
With some superhuman gifts
Some superhero
Some fairytale bliss
Just something I can turn to
Somebody I can miss

I want something just like this
I want something just like this

Oh I want something just like this
Doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo
Doo-doo-doo, doo-doo
Doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo
Oh I want something just like this
Doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo
Doo-doo-doo, doo-doo
Doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo

Where d'you wanna go?
How much you wanna risk?
I'm not looking for somebody
With some superhuman gifts
Some superhero
Some fairytale bliss
Just something I can turn to
Somebody I can kiss
I want something just like this

Oh I want something just like this
Oh I want something just like this
Oh I want something just like this

➜ Why I like the song -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- 

For the very first time I listened to "Something Just Like This", I love the song immediately. The voice of the singer deeply fascinated me, and it is an electronic music. The rhythm and the lyrics are simple and easy to remember, also it mentions about heroes: I love hero movies. Moreover, when I saw the translation of this song, I had more feelings about it. That’s the reason why I love the song.

#5 Free Writing - A Special Holiday

-
Before I left Hawaii, I had a chance to celebrate a special holiday, Memorial Day, with my friends. Memorial Day is a holiday for remembering the people who died while serving in the United Stated Armed Forces. After I finished the assignments, my friend, Viviana, and I took the bus to Waikiki Beach to find our friends and enjoy the holiday. When we arrived, the beach was full of people. Our friends gave us a paper boat with a candle and told us to write down our wishes and hopes. After that, we lighted the candle and put the boat into the sea. It was beautiful when thousands of boats lighted up the night sky. Finally, we all get together to pray for those who lost their parents or children in our mind. For me, it is a special and unforgettable holiday. ➜Tools:  1. Linggle: red

➔ Charlie Todd - The shared experience of absurbity ➔ Three words I learned from the talk 1. crack up (ph. v.) : to start laughing a lot     He walked in and everyone just cracked up . 2. stumble (v.) : to step awkwardly while waking or running and fall or begin to fall     Running along the beach, she  stumbled  on a log and fell on the sand. 3. anonymous (adj.) : made or done by someone whose name is not known or not made      public     The money was donated by an anonymous benefactor. ➔ My comments on the talk   Charlie Todd gave us an interesting and meaningful talk. Although people in Improv Everywhere do some pranks or do something others think that are meaningless, they enjoyed the things they were doing. Also, they brought happiness to other people.  I think  Charlie Todd  really knows how to "play" his life.      I like the conclusion that he maintained: "Play i...
