Afternoon Fantasy

Pang Pang!…Pangpangpang…!!! “Eerr! Why I never get it right!” Pongpong.. “Ouch! ..oh.. my fingers”

You might wonder what CiCi is doing. Well, like in the picture, CiCi’s practicing piano. Or, probably she’s more like ‘breaking’ her piano. Hei hei hei…Every afternoon she tortures her piano for two hours.

I’m doing a 4-hand-piano Chinese song called Huang He (Yellow River) with one of my dad’s friend, Gregory. Tomorrow afternoon, we’ll get together at Wargna shop to practice. Gregory is the kind of pianist who can get so hyper during performing and starts to mess up the music. So my job (this is what he told me) is to keep him on the same tempo through out the whole piece. Yeah…Cici likes to be the controller. Hhoo..^^

Yellow River was composed during WWII. It was a song to encourage Chinese people to fight against Japanese army and protect our country. It’s a very powerful and beautiful song. 60 years ago, on August 15th, Japan declared that they lost the war. Today, 8.15.05, the Japanese prime minister apologized for the damages Japanese had done to Asians. I think Chinese people and all other Asians whose families and friends were lost during the war would feel eased in their heart. Those who died would let their spirit calm and live happily in the other world.

I talked to my DWTX today. Every time when I hear his voice, it feels like drinking hot chocolate, warm and sweet. Hehehe…^^ I was looking at the world map this evening. Malaysia looks so far away from Portland… I’ll go back to my other home a month later. Ehh…it’s going to be loooooong journey… Jia You! Yay!
