Xu Shu
Xu Shu (birth and death dates unknown), courtesy name Yuanzhi, originally named Shan Fu, was an official of the state of Cao Wei in the Three Kingdoms period. He was born sometime in the late Eastern Han dynasty and used to be a vigilante swordsman in his early life. However, after running into trouble with the authorities, he renounced his old ways and took up scholarly pursuits. He lived a reclusive life from the 190s to mid-200s (decade) in Jing Province (covering present-day Hubei and Hunan provinces), where he met and befriended Zhuge Liang. In late 207, he became an adviser to the warlord Liu Bei and served under Liu for about a year. He also recommended Zhuge Liang to Liu Bei during this period of time. In late 208, Liu Bei was defeated at the Battle of Changban by his rival Cao Cao. Xu Shu's mother was captured by Cao Cao's forces during the battle. Feeling lost and without a sense of direction, Xu Shu eventually left Liu Bei and joined Cao Cao. He continued serving in the state of Cao Wei – founded by Cao Cao's son and successor, Cao Pi, who ended the Han dynasty – and died of illness in office.

Turn It Into Something Special
by: SashaThere's a voice inside our soul
Calling out so we don't fall
Nothing's lost that can't be found
Ain't a thing you can't get 'round
Turn it into something good
There's a chance you really could
Turn it into something special
When you see it's time to choose
Gonna find you'll never lose
Turn it into something special
When your calm is broken too
And you don't know what to do
Hold your fire and look above
Take the flame don't put it out
Turn it into something good
There's a chance you really could
Turn it into something special
When you see it's time to choose
Gonna find you'll never lose
Turn it into something special
Just believe in something new
We all have our part to do
Turn it into something special
And you'd still be standing strong
Hold your crown and carry on
Turn it into something special
When you know right from the start
Gonna play it from the heart
Take a chance and make things better
Leave the fears and doubts behind
Don't give in just keep on tryin'
Turn it into something special
Mmmmm. mmmmm... uuuuuu...
Turn it into something good
There's a chance you really could
Turn it into something special
When you see it's time to choose
Gonna find you'll never lose
Turn it into something special
Turn it into something new
We all have our part to do
take a chance and make it special
And you'd still be standing strong
Hold your crown and carry on
Turn it into something...
Just believe in something

Just believe in something, yea yea.
Naa naa naa na na naa.
We gotta carry on, we gotta carry on and on.
Naa naa naa na na naa.

You gotta believe in something
Naa naa naa na na naa...
