From guitars to er-hus

one at hand and the other to be claimed
with both in grasp greatness lays in wait

woo.. deep.. xD


hey peeps. wadup wid u people lately? hope u all have been good living ur own lives. so yeah its been quite a while since my last post. here's another one for u readers.

of da late, nothing much has been going on in skool cept for..
  • getting our results and forcasts back
  • we just finished yet another round of pointless exams
  • casino Keledang every single day where the stakes are high and manner's dont exist
  • Chinese-Girl-Club of Keledang.. well the girls who speak more mandarin than anyone in our class have been desperately trying to teach Ming how to sing/speak mandarin

yeah u heard that rite.

since the year's already almost at it's end, and ive begun to take a few things that im doing more seriously, ive decided to finally start learning my fatherless-mothertongue. yep.. and it so happens that i have the perfect people to teach it to me

my two most dedicated lao-shi's and friends xD
cheryl and sun mei

from printing lyrics to teaching tunes ,writing every single friggin han-yu-ping-yin or pronounciation of each friggin chinese word in english and explaining what each one of them means.. these girls have done it all for me and i am truly thankful. uve helped this hopeless african boy become chinese again.

of course.. considering the depth and power of my chinese, the both of them weren't the only ones who've helped me.. or had to help me. but since i got a nice picture of both of them and non of the others, its the only one ive posted it up. haha.. thank you, all you beautiful-really-well-chinese-speaking-people

so far, ive memorised and understood ONE song.. (not bad for an amateur's first week rite? haha.. ) and im starting on another one. i'm learning songs by this chinese artist called Lee Hom. truly someone i cud take as a role model. friggin talented dude. seriously..

my understanding of chinese so far? well, it's a real pain to learn.. but totally worth the effort seeing my friends smile when i sing it for them ( considering they're my teachers.. and they're girls for one fact.. makes it all the better xD ahaha.. ) and totally worth every single minute.

well, till next time. take care people. it's back to recording for me.

peace
