不能說的秘密 (secret)

不能說的秘密 is a romantic Taiwanese movie from 2007 directed, written and played by the musician Jay Chou.

Ye Xianglun is a piano student who just transfer 淡江中學 (Tamkang (Danjiang) Secondary School), a school famous for talented musician, especially in piano. On his first day he meets Lu Xiaoyu another piano student playing a strange melody on the oldest piano of the school. She told him that it is a secret, and that he should never play this melody on this piano pretexting that it's not good enough. They start a mysterious relationship as Lu Xiaoyu seems to be sick and often disappears. When a mis-passed notes leads to Xianglun to accidentally kiss Qing Yi, Xiaoyu disappears again leading Xianglun to look for her, she comes back for graduation before disappearing again leading Xianglun to discover her secret. However the old piano room is to soon be destroyed.

I really like this movie because the music is beautiful and the story is also touching and funny at time. The character of Lu Xiaoyu is captivating due to her secret and she face the incomprehension of a lot of people including her mother and teacher who she trusted. Also even if he doesn't understand everything Xianglun is always trying his best to be there for her. There are very interesting musical part such as for example the piano battle.

Vlog : How this blog started.

I decided as a new year resolution to make a video a week. You can already see the problem, or if you don't check the date. Anyway after procrastinating on doing it, I finally decided to do it, today. It's a bit incredible how things that you imagine are going to take for ages actually don't take that much time in the end.

I don't really have rules for the videos. This time it's all about how I started this blog. Next time I'm not sure. I think I would just follow my mood. You can always remind me to do something if you don't get a video next week.

I'm not really comfortable taking video, lack of practice I think. I also realized that I make grammar mistakes while speaking so you'll have to bear with it. And I'm speaking really slowly as well. I guess it will get better with time.

Japan : Trip to Kansai, 京都, 京都タワ and end

En français
After diner we went to 京都タワ, some of us too the lift to the top to have a panoramic view of the city at night. That was really good. We could see the light from the temple that the group visited before we joined them. Then we went back down to the shop to buy some お土産　and at the closure we decided to go at the top of the train station while waiting for our bus. We took the bus back to Shinjuku and arrived rather tired the next morning. With a little bit of an effort we were back in Chofu to finish our night sleep.

Then I got told there were two 京都タワ and I felt for it, ばか私。

The Cinema and Anime sections have been becoming a lot bigger lately and I'm planing on increasing them even more. Therefor I think it's the right time to make an organized table of content. This way movies, series and everything you want will be a lot easier to find. This post will be available under "Cinema content" in the right side bar. And of course it will be updated with each new movie being presented.
