涯系客家人 Ngai hei hakka ngin,
(I am Hakka)
今日涯寻到一个好听个歌 Gin ngit ngai chim do jit gai ho tang gai go,
(Today I found a nice song)
听到笑唔停 Tang dao xiao em tim,
(Listen till I can’t stop laughing)
来来来，齐齐听 Loi loi loi chei chei tang,
(Come come come, let’s listen to)
阿婆卖咸菜 Ah Po Mai Ham Choi,
(Granny selling salted vegetable)
Every year I used to have a small Christmas tree up next to my study desk, but I gave it away to someone else when I moved to another house last year. Barren and empty my table will be, yet my heart shall not. Christmas tree to me is just like a tradition for Christmas, the commercialized tradition, the true meaning of Christmas is still the birth of Jesus and the spirit of giving.
I won’t be back for Christmas this year, usual lah.. Can only either choose Christmas or Chinese New Year. Since CNY got angpao so better choose CNY so that the angpao can cover my air ticket. =p
Tell you what, my material has arrived last Friday! That’s the biggest present I’ve ever had and had been waiting for so long. On November 29, I wrote a post plunging to a very down mode.
But this season of Christmas I am very deligthed! Delighted not only because I will be able to start my labwork again but I am not alone. Pei Siang, my junior who helped me a while ago, has promised to lend me a helping hand albeit still holidaying.
I’m good to go and to rush for my labwork so that I can finish things on schedule and most of all graduate on time!
Boring hor? Everytime I blog also about myself and seldom about something new or interesting. You know I am not the kind of person who have my camera sticking 24/7 with me to shoot shoot food, drinks, scenery, camwhoring, cars, and bla bla bla… (that’s the culture of bloggers today).
Here’s some of the few songs I love so much. Top 3 in my list!
#1 Little Drummer Boy
#2 What Child Is This
This is a song recommended by Suituapui, it turned out that I kinda like it. Very meaningful for this season of Christmas and the year throughout.
#3 Grown Up Christmas List
Just like the song Grown Up Christmas List put: “I’m not a child, but my heart still can dream.” I dream!
This is the song I like most. I am still trying to memorize the Italian, Spanish and French part as well as figuring out what they mean. This is truly a song made in heaven.
Jesus Christ You Are My Life
Marco Frisina
English refrain:
Jesus Christ, you are my life,
alleluia, alleluia.
Jesus Christ, you are my life.
You are my life, alleluia.
Italian:
Tu sei via, sei veritá,
tu sei la nostra vita,
camminando insieme a te
vivrem o in te per sempre.
Spanish:
En el gozo caminaremos
trayendo tu evangelio;
testimonios de caridad,
hijos de Dios en el mundo.
French:
Tu nous rassembles dans l´unité
réunis dans ton grand amour,
devan toi dans la joie
nous chanterons ta gloire.
PS: If you would like to have this song in MP3 format, feel free to drop in your request (with email) in my comment box. Gratias Ago Tibi (thank you in Latin)!
