encounter with true musicians...

its been some time since the last concert i went to..
so i didn't consider much and agree with mintz to go to chen sheng concert last last fri... plus plus i've seen him perform a few years b4.. (o.. not a few.. 6 years liao.. wah) and his live performance is nothing to say one.. 3 musketeers, mintz, simon and me went.. no regrets man!
sad to say.. but the truth is sheng ge newer songs dun realli touch mi... but but but.. his old songs.. his lyrics and tunes mesmerize mi eh... haa.. and "bie rang wo ku" was attached to my brain for a few days after the concert.. =''=
like the way sheng ge "tell stories".. full of meanings yet funni.. and not fake like some other singers.. hee.. he said this -->
"all of us here are champions! once upon a night, when ur parents........... u are the champion runner! but after that night.. most of us never became champions anymore.." haa.. wat a way to put it.. =P

another thing he said was -->
"no point guess and compose what a audience like to listen.. what if i guess it wrongly.. and both parties "bu shuang".. i compose wat i like and if the listeners dun like it.. at least i "shuang".. haa"
true! haa.. that sentence will help mi with chosing wat songs to perform during performances... hee..

anyway, thanks to mintz.. i got the chance to meet sheng ge(that wat they call him) and his band members.... ah wen drummer, xinyi basses and the others i dunno their names.. its an honor to meet them! especially xinyi the female basses.. haa.. i knew abt her thru cheer chen's works.. know that she plays the bass for cheer b4.. hee..
came to know that they onli practice once a year! for 4 to 5 days they practice... and they hav a whole database of sheng ge's songs.. u name it, they can play it if its in that songlist... i think its more then 100 songs.. maybe 200.. not sure.. amazing.. respect them for that.. dunno when can i do that.. =''=

mac ad.. cool.. hee

love me Tender..

finally! i have Tender my resignation! 1 month more to freedom land! yeh! hee..
i've talked abt changing job for like... more then 6month??.. can't remember.. anyway, finally!
Thank God i have the chance to go taiwan last week.. and KL weeks b4.. to get some rest and recharge myself b4 going on to face the i believe is the turning point of my life..
hmm.. actually i never thot i would go full time into music related stuffs.. Thank God for showing me the way.. knowing this path will not be a smooth one.. but i'm willing to take up this challenge..
i'm reading this book [If you want to walk on water, you've got to get out of the boat].. and one sentence hit me: "How much faith do i need? Not a feeling of certainty. Just enough faith to take a step."
yes! i've never thot of it that way as i'm always in my safe zone.. always waiting for tat feeling of certainty before i do anything... and now, if i'm still waiting for that certainty.. i know i will miss the chance and i may be stuck with this job.. this job that i never like doing for the next.. 10 years?
well, there will be much more barrier ahead.. communication barrier, financial barrier.. etc.. pls pray for me brothers and sisters... pray that i will hav the courage from God to go on.. pray that i will learn to manage my time.. thanx!
God comfort me with his word juz b4 i tender my resignation.. :

"The Lord is my shepherd, I shall not be in want. He makes me lie down in green pastures, he leads me beside quiet waters, he restores my soul. He guides me in paths of righteousness for his name's sake. Even though i walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil, for you are with me; your rod and your staff, they comfort me. You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies. You anoint my head with oil; my cup overflows. Surely goodness and love will follow me all the days of my life, and i will dwell in the house of the Lord forever." Psalms 23

oo.. i'm MCing and home now.. again.. =''=... i got pinkeye (conjunctivitus) or wat the chinese call "yan zhen" (eye needle) it doesn't realli hurt.. but its realli annoying.. irritating!.. i dunno how to discribe the feeling.. u noe wat i mean if u have got this pinkeye before.. O_o..
anyway, wat i wanted to say is i was at home going thru some stuffs.. and i came upon this bible verse card i got during this year's chinese new year... its like the verse of the year or somethin like tat.. (we'll get a bible verse card every year during chinese new year).. its like this.. :

"Peace I leave with you; my peace i give you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid." John 14:27

i remembered when i got this verse i was thinking what will i be afraid of....
now i know... my verse of the year indeed... =)

...chocolate...you never know what u gonna get..

yeh.. life is like a box of chocolate.. you never know what you gonna get..
the famous quote from the movie Forrest Gum.. one of my fav..
for now, i realli hav no idea whats ahead of me.. kinda worried..
thanx to all the friends, pals that hav given me advice in one way or another..
thou i am worried, i still believe that God will make a way...
God, pls give me strenght and courage to take the step....

God will make a way
Where there seems to be no way
He works in ways we cannot see
He will make a way for me
He will be my guide Hold me closely to His side
With love and strength for each new day
He will make a way He will make a way

By a roadway in the wilderness he'll lead me
And rivers in the desert will I see
Heaven and earth will fade But His word will still remain
He will do something new today.

What Breed of Dog Are You??

You're a Bernese Mountain Dog!

No bones about it, you're a good-hearted, people-loving Bernese Mountain Dog. Down-to-earth and loyal, no one works or plays harder than you do. You put your nose to the grindstone when it really counts, but you never neglect your social calendar. Simultaneously strong and sweet, you're very tuned-in to the feelings and needs of the other dogs you run with. Without having to be asked, you always have a helping paw to lend and a sympathetic shoulder to lean on. "Communication" is your middle name, and when that's paired with your unswerving devotion, you get a breed that everyone respects and trusts. Woof!

Cheer Chen encore concert at taiwan..

After the overwhelming responds of her concert october last year.. Cheer is having her encore concert <花的姿态> at other part of taiwan on sat 22 April with guest performer, Faith Yang. below is an interesting news from some website.. hee


楊乃文為了陳綺貞想牽她的手，差點氣到抓狂，陳綺貞也不甘示弱，透露第一次看見楊乃文就想揍她。

陳綺貞周六將在台中舉辦「花的姿態」演唱會，昨天先和樂手彩排，嘉賓楊乃文也來到練團室，兩人一起合唱陳綺貞寫給楊乃文的歌曲「飄吧」，楊乃文也送上兩瓶枇杷膏，要她好好保護嗓子。

這兩個氣質派歌手拍照時，互動相當親密，不時摟腰、勾肩搭背，正當陳綺貞主動牽起楊乃文的雙手，楊乃文反應卻很激烈，直說：「不要啦，兩個女生牽手很怪。」

陳綺貞笑著說：「第一眼看到乃文就想揍她，當年同屬魔岩唱片，公司就只有我跟她坐在沙發上，她只瞄了我一眼，目光完全沒交集，直到有一次又是單獨兩人，我問她問題，她都不理我，過很久才突然對我說『妳剛在跟我說話嗎』」也開始讓陳綺貞覺得楊乃文相當有趣，因此才逐漸培養出好交情。


wish i can be there.... hee.. Cheer, come singapore for concert soon!!
