Lonely Driver

I don't really like to use the word 'lonely'.
I guess I'll be watching Initial D alone. *laughs*
Why I want to watch Initial D?
The reason is simply because the main plot of storyline is cool, all about cars and determination. I've watched the anime version and yes it's interesting. One has to be strong and I've learned from the anime that one's concentration won't last long. If you concentrate too much, you might wreck your nerve system. Another thing is that whatever machine you are using, you should understand its rythm fully to be able to use it well. Those are a coupla reasons. For a side-track one, it's because an anime is turned into a real-life act and I am really looking forward to see how it's done. Apart from that, Jay Chou and Edison Chen are going to act in it. That turbos me more and more.
23rd June is the date of launch. On a Thursday, though it would bug me if I were to watch it alone, I guess the main purpose is to understand the story and support the real-life version of one of my favourite anime. I hope there would be English sub-titles but I guess it won't be that much of a problem, coz I've watched several non-subtitled chinese drama before and understood it fully.

Initial D - D stands for drifting, a racing technique of braking the rear tires loose in controlled manner right before an uncontrolled skid. Drifting is the fastest way through a corner. A car is considered to be drifting when all of its wheels are slipping. However, the front wheels are still pointed in the direction of the corner, or at least straight.

Persona

Run Anujra Etb Mirak
The world from the rear view mirror becomes further and further away as if saying goodbye
You turn around but your side profile is still very beautiful
I use my eyes to pursue you, yet I hear your tears
Outside the car window is my missed opportunity
Your position and mine is separated by tears
The street views are continuously receding, you start to fragment outside the window
I head towards the north to leave the season which describes you
You said you were already tired and cannot fall in love with anybody again
The wind is blowing on the mountain road, all of our previous memories were my wrongdoings
Counting my shamefulness, I have hurt you too many instances
I head towards the north to leave the season which describes you
Around the steering wheel rotates my feelings of regret
I accelerate to escape the lingering sadness
Counting my shamefulness, I have hurt you too many instances
Stop the anguish by letting my wrongdoings
