TV Programme - Flamenco

2012-01-29T19:05:00.002+08:00

In January, one of the paid TV channels in Hong Kong did a short series on Flamenco - its culture. It was a series of four episodes introducing its history and different facets including dance, instruments, and singing. Not being able to put the videos here, here are the links to the four episodes... in Chinese! My teacher was in there... and I was hiding somewhere in these clips too. Bet

Want to see how Hong Kong is from high above, enter here. I'm one of the millions who live here, in this messy looking tiny place made up of islands, and a peninsula. The place looks messy, partly because of all the construction works going on, and partly because the day the panorama was taken isn't ideal. Behind all those buildings, you can't imagine how much money flow in and out each day,

It's a Long Road...

...was what I was thinking when I was mending my flamenco bata de cola. This time my whole foot went through. For those who have seen one, it's really boring and tiring to mend because you have to redo the ruffles and go all the way round until the tear is mended. It's even more difficult when the bata is in red and black! Anyway, I know it's silly but I just happened to be humming this

in the middle of a tunnel... There have been a number of changes since late last year; one after another. Some I thought they would never have come by, and one came surprisingly. I remember that there was this time I was constantly seeking for a move, and then due to circumstances and change of plans, I paused to wait for the new opportunity; the right moment; to come. But, it never

Silly Thoughts

2011-11-14T00:03:00.001+08:00

What if I had stopped believing in destiny at that moment of truth? What if I had kept this coat I was offered? What if I was more confident and more active in communication? What if I had made the call to change my ticket and left the next day? What if I had more confidence, responded to the message in a very firm and bxxchy manner? What if...... I'm babbling. Just meaningless silly

A Powerful Voice

2011-11-13T02:05:00.001+08:00

To be in love with an art form is wonderful. I don't know why I chose Flamenco but for now, I know that it's complicatedly wonderful: a combination of voice, guitar, clapping, and the heart throbbing dancing. Listen to this powerful voice and the impeccable guitar. Just this is beautiful!

Watched this film quite late but am so glad that I've made it because it is such an excellent film! The story was about how three engineering students met in the best College of Engineering in India, and then after how life developed during their study and after graduation. It is such a story so beautifully written and produced that touched the heart of many. The scenery in the film was

Like instinct, for no reason I wanted to listen to this song. And so I've been listening to it for the whole month of October. Then I remembered that it must be around this time of one year that I bought this CD and listening to the songs to learn French. This song, turned out to be my favourite, later brought some memories to life. Now that I'm listening to it once again, I am listening

Steve and Life

News of last Wednesday sent repercussions to lives of many. Many may be too few: millions, or billions may be right. The icon of Apple passed away. It was sad news to the World. But what had he done that affected the World to such an extent? People said his ideas changed life. He was a symbol of hope. His belief and attitude towards life were like a breath of fresh air that inspired

Message is Strong

Wow, I came across this MV only today... American life in the eyes of this artiste. The message is STRONG. I watched on the news a little about the ceremony commemorating the 10th anniversary of the 911 incident. It certainly wasn't something to "commemorate" for but it was done to sooth the sorrow of the Americans. All the news on gearing up security leading to the 11 September could

Sam Hui used to be a superstar in the 70s and 80s. He still is in many people's heart. At the time he was famous for his songs which reflected the daily life of the root of the community, as well as the life of people in a colony. The lyrics of his music were usually humorous and could be a bit sarcastic at times. I love his songs to this day because if you turn the setting around, the lyrics

An Early New Year Resolution

2011-09-26T21:02:00.001+08:00

From time to time, I reflect on what life has brought me. In the past year, I'd made major decisions for myself. This enabled me to break away from a vicious circle and open a gateway to see if the direction is the one to take. So far, I may not know if the decisions made are the best, but certainly they are the right ones to make.I've learnt to give myself a break and not to force myself.

Chasing an Old Dream

2011-09-11T00:32:00.004+08:00

Since I was young, I dreamt of being a dancer. If I had told my mom, she would be really angry. (For that, you need to understand the Chinese thoughts.) Dancers have always had more appeal to me on shows and TV. My favorite movie is Grease! Always! I could play the song "You are the One that I Want" and imagining myself playing a part of this finale, in leather, a million times without

A New Blog

2011-07-15T01:14:00.002+08:00

I'm writing from my new blog and testing its features. This new place allows me to add pages I like. Although it hasn't got very attractive themes, which I have to make do with as I don't know how to make one from scratch, it has a special feature of autoposting. So for now it would be useful to keep both until I'm satisfied. I shall try to change the fonts and add other features with the
