Of blogs, mushrooms and music

02:13:49 | Daily Life, Little Things, People |

Let’s all welcome Belle to the blogosphere.

Yay, this means that another one of my friends has finally gotten herself a blog. More people should blog anyway. - Looks at Mithi at this juncture, who got herself one but has written nothing in it. :(

Anyway, just had to relate a hilarious conversation between mum and me this evening -

Me; referring to the mushrooms in my Mac ‘N’ Cheese, as well as the side order of deep fried mushrooms I decided to have at Swensen’s.

“Oh, these are Shitake mushrooms too, just like the deep-fried mushrooms!”

“I think they came from the same tree,” says Mum.

There was a brief period of silence.

“Mum, mushrooms don’t grow on trees!”

For the record - Mummy dearest convinced me that the above was just a slip of the tongue, as she was trying to affirm that both mushrooms were of the same variety and somehow, the ‘came from the same tree’ bit just slipped out. I still have my doubts though. :P

Later on, on the way back to the carpark;

“I’m quite glad that you decided not to have any more children after me,” says I.

“Why?” Mum looked at me quizzically.

“Because you’d be teaching them all the wrong things, like how mushroom grows on trees!”

A tickle fight nearly ensued.

—————-

Anyhoo, decided to upload another voice recording up here. Have done quite a few recordings since the last one I posted up … quite a long time ago - but somehow, I wasn’t able to find one that is not err … very embarassing to upload.

This song is entitled 日不落 (English translation: The sun will never set) - originally by Jolin Tsai, and the best recording I have so far. Will proceed to work on more providing time permits.

So … here you go. (Remember, I will not be held accountable for any hearing damage that may result from listening to this audio!)

As usual, comments are most welcome.

Proceed to read more for the lyrics. (If you can read Mandarin, that is.)

日不落 - Jolin Tsai
天空的雾来的漫不经心
河水像油画一样安静
和平鸽慵懒步伐咬着云
心偷偷的放晴

祈祷你像英勇的禁卫军
动也不动的守护爱情
你在回忆里留下的脚印
是我爱的风景

我要送你日不落的想念
寄出代表爱的明信片
我要送你日不落的爱恋
心牵着心把世界走遍

你就是晴天你就是晴天
我的爱未眠
不落的想念飞在你身边
我的爱未眠
