Thank god... it's Friday!

TGIF!!! I’m on leave to study for my coming exam on Monday though… suddenly it feels like all the best movies, all the best concerts and all the most interesting events are happening this weekend. And I can’t go.

Here’s a lame quiz: I went to the market today and was at the veggie seller. I asked the veggie seller, “What’s good today?” He answered, “TGIF”. I paid up and walked off with my veggie. The question: What veggie did I end up buying?

The clue is in this picture!

The answer is: Bean sprouts! (cos ‘Tau Geh Is Fresh’!)

Don't sail away from me

Here’s a bossa nova number from A-mei. It’s called “Don’t Sail Away”. I'm quite impressed with her diction in this song. She managed to sound very at ease with the language, which is a rare quality among Taiwanese artists.

I’m not sure where the MV is shot at but it reminds me of Washington DC… the low-rise buildings... the fire escape staircases... the sidewalks... and old-style iron radiator heater in the room.

Happiness batteries

Just got through one weekend of uneventful study… Studying for exams is still as painful as always… god I still have another weekend to get through! I’ll still like to thank someone for providing some batteries to keep me going!

Would you stay and listen to my song?

Jay Chou's latest album "Capricorn" is out! Here's an MV from his album "給我一首歌的時間". This song is about asking a girl to stay around for one last song before she leaves. He's got some pretty cool dance moves in the MV too... I think I'll do well to learn from him... cos I'm pretty lousy with dancing!

The girl in the MV is very pretty! She's called 王思平and also acted in one other Jay Chou's MV "陽光宅男".

Kiss Goodbye

Recently, I got hooked on Wong Lee Hom's song, Kiss Goodbye. The is a sad song about loving someone so much that you can't part with your love for even one moment.

Here's a clip of the him performing the song live. He can really sing and play the piano!
