The Musical Baton.

It would be so much nicer if the baton comes along with the collection of music files. Anyway, here's mine, without any files of course,

The Musical Baton

The Musical Baton (kindly passed on to me by marycherry).


Total Volume of Music files on my computer:
16.5 GB (17,782,842,711 bytes) on my "Audio" partition. Probably add up to 18 GB +/- if I include the files on my notebook, CD-Roms and other partitions. Champions-of-copyrights, please don't frown at my large collection of mp3s (others have more!), I did my part for the recording artistes by purchasing about 100 cds at an average of $22 many years ago (mostly imported cds leh, very expensive hor).


The Last CD I bought was:
Stan Getz's finest hour which I bought from the Tower Records at Suntec for $19.99 in November 2001 (back then jazz mp3s still not widely available mah.. heh, thank goodness for having jamie cullum and michael buble mp3s around these days).

The Bridal Dowry.

The delivery of dowry ( 送嫁妆 ) is another important custom. It represents parent's effort for her daughter to have a good life after marriage and prepare her with the necessities for being a good wife. I am amazed by some of the things included in the dowry. Of course, in our modern living, we will not be using some of those things... Nevertheless, I think it is all good to have them, as each item carries a good meaning for our blissful marriage. :-)

If you have it, just flaunt it.

Its such a lousy day, I have decided to blog another entry. Yesh, I am thinking about things other than my last two papers on Thurs and Friday. Something probably talked alot before by many people... What is it with men and women with 可爱-oooii *杨丞琳's voice* face, long tresses, slim legs, curvey body, in revealing tight clothes (only for those with the former characteristics), in pink. Why are men so attracted to those features? The guy is lying if he says he will not turn his head when he sees women with those features. I think it has nothing to do with men being lustful or anything disgusting. It probably has something to do with the genes, the hormones. I don't believe it has to do with things like its men's nature instinct to look for partners who can reproduce blahblahblah. That's so boring! Its something mysterious, something that let men derives pleasure by just looking openly, without doing anything bad or harmful or immoral. Do women ogle at men all the time too...

Saturday Afternoon Routine.

I just got back from the Saturday tuition sessions. It has been almost 5 months since I started.I have two classes of primary school children, P4 and P3, taking Maths and Science, and English, respectively. It has become a Saturday routine. A energy-draining activity. It is somehow different from giving volunteering tuition. When you are paid, the responsibility seems greater. And if you ain't doing a good job, someone else is readily available to take up yours. The fact that I really need that money, I have to put in more effort. Some students have left, and some have joined. I'm not sure whether they left cuz they think I ain't good 'nuff for them. But there are some who seem really happy and appreciative to have me around. On my first lesson, I set the ground rules for my classes. I told them my expectations on their behavior. On boy, how naive I was. They are only nine or ten, they don't understand the significance of those rules. After a couple of lessons with ...
