Chinese Music (with Video links)

By -
I have talked about how I discovered Chinese Music.  It was due to our second adoption.  Our daughter was 7 and I wanted to get music she could listen to.  When I started listening to it, I discovered that I liked it.  Even without knowing all the lyrics.  On the third adoption, I found Jay Chou.  I really liked his music.  Try some of these out.  I like the melody and the words.  Angie even sings to them, not just the English words.

Janice Vidal is an artist that the person at the music store suggested.  My kids liked some of her songs.  Cookie Can was a favorite.

Another artist I found on Youtube is Janice Tsai.  Shuo Ai Ne has a really catchy beat.

In Florida, we were lucky to get a program through our library that allowed us to get downloads through Sony.  Here I found other artists.

Fiona Fung is like a Chinese Sarah Mclachlan and I really like her voice.  She sings in English in some of her songs.  A Little Love is a good one.

Goodbye Master.  This song comes from Infernal Affairs, remade into The Departed in America.

On the third adoption, I bought some music videos by Jay Chou.  This was before I heard his music.  When I was going home, I listened to the airline music.  They had a song by him.  This song has a country fell to it.

The song I listened to was Cowboy on the Run.

Check back and I will add more music.  Also, there is a toolbar at the top of the page from Amazon.  If you like some of the things I mention and want to buy it, you can check the bar.  It is programmed  to pick out things that I mention, like Jay Chou.  I checked the bar and his album Opus is listed.  It is a good album.  Plus, we receive a percentage if people go through that link.  All proceeds will help with our adoption.

Crazy Chickens

By -
 I'm sitting in my office at home.  All I can hear is the sound of chickens squawking. I think they are trying to encourage me to feed them.  I know when I go out, it will be like Ace Ventura and the animals flocking to him.  I do know they will squawk before laying an egg.  The roosters are non-stop with their calls!

I Feel Lost

By -
 This week, my phone died.  I could not believe it.  I was looking on it and it goes black.  I have my wife look at it.  She gets it to come back to life and updates it to the Icloud.  I start looking at it again.  Then, it dies again.  This time it is for good.  She called TMobile.  They wanted me to enter passwords.  I could not remember them.  They were on the phone.  Eventually, I used my Ipod to access something.  Because it was under a plan we have, I am able to get a new phone.  Only catch is is that it is the same model, Iphone 11.  If I wanted the newest phone, I would have to pay $300.  I went with the same model.  Now I just need to get it.  I find myself lost without my phone.

The Long Walk

 I took my daughters to see The Long Walk .  I read this stroy when I was a teen.  It did not disappoint.  The guys who Star in this movie did a really good job.  It is not the feel good movie of the year .  It does make you feel for everyone who dies.  If you get emotional, it will cause tears.
