今天从日志中删去许多图像和影视, 为了节约篇幅!

昨天女儿生日, 我们照样吃了长寿面, 还包了饺子, 妈妈也从北京打来了电话, 祝她的外孙女生日快乐. 饭后我们一起看了女儿最喜欢看的DVD.我过了平静而又愉快的一天.

我们的车里也装上了卫星导航地图仪+语音提示+ 蓝牙免提通话: Garmin Nuvi Personal Travel Assistant

我们正想买新房,看房子太方便了。对我这个一出门就转向得人更是宝贝。当然啦,它提示的路在当地人来说,并不一定都是捷径。 如果我的汽车选择另一条路,它会随时重新计算,按照新的路线继续提示下去,永不厌烦。哈哈哈。。。
老公因工作需要,好几年前就开始用GPS系统了。但是老式的GPS 不说话,都是数字,很难用。 电子技术的发展真太快了。
另外,我们的音乐老师嗓子哑了, 停课两周。好呀!我还上钢琴课呢, 也够我忙乎的了。

其实, 我最喜欢的还是西方古典交响音乐和中国古典器乐。

对于流行歌曲,我只喜欢其节奏, 任何人都可以随着跳动或扭摆, 有活血化瘀之疗效。  
对于 Michael Jackson, 我迷恋他的舞蹈,无与伦比, 人间奇迹!
而对他的嗓音,我却总是喜欢不起来。Pity...
至于 jazz,我更是望尘莫及, 总觉得他们在乱吹,乱弹,乱敲。
不过, 我挺喜欢听带有歌星的 big band jazz, 特别振奋。 不过我总是为其拍节所迷惑:都是在一个小节的最后一霎那起句。 可能跟英语的语言特性有关吧?总让人倒吸一口气。

昨晚我们又学了一个新歌 My Cherie Amour

歌星 Stevie Wonder 是早产儿,生来盲目,音乐神童, 现年58.

流行歌曲太难学!我现在才体会到我外甥倍贝的一个词儿:慢半拍...

回复小寒, 咪咪, 幽玄, 小美, 宝贝公主,还有Don~~~
哈!我还真的不知道 Jazz 和 blues 的中文名呢。 还有rock, hip hop, rap, pop 中文都是怎样的呢?  
合唱班上的鬼佬们从小听惯了这些歌曲,跟唱一遍就会了。 我却发现这些流行歌曲的拍节很难掌握。
终于体会到倍贝的一个词儿:慢半拍. 我不仅常常会慢半拍, 还会快半拍呢, 哈哈哈。。。

我星期三晚上学唱歌, 周四晚上学电子琴...

已经开学两周了, 我是班上唯一的亚洲人,    唯一的真正初学者Embarrassed   汗!!!    我一开始就坦白, 只会唱两三首"外国歌", 而且我不会读五线谱, 只会读1234567. 更糟的是我嗓子是哑的!   我是来学习西方文化的,  也是来滥竽充数的. 不过没人懂得我说的成语.  好在, 老师和学生们不把我当成外星人, 我很快就不觉得紧张和尴尬了.  合唱班学的都是世界历来最有名的流行歌曲.
至于学电子琴, 纯属营养大脑, 以免僵化...

照片里我戴的大围脖是巧平给我亲手织的, 多温暖啊!

巧平来到了我们地球的另一头儿。。。

我们用了三天的时间,从北到南,游览了塔岛的全部东海岸, 车程来回达900多公里。。。
从Launceston 北上,停留的地点包括:Bridport, Musselroe Bay, Ansons Bay (野营), The Gardens, Binalong Bay, St Helen, Scamander, Bicheno (钓鱼), Swansea,  triabunna, Tasman Peninsula, Eaglehawk Neck(旅店), Shipstern Bluff(森林远足, 俯览世界上最著名的冲浪点,可惜那天风平浪静), Hobart (塔岛首府, 去看了女儿新修的房子).
最后从霍巴特取直道 Midland HWY 回Launceston, 只用两个半小时。 
巧平自己还花了一整天时间去了游览了 Cradle Moutain.

黎明时分 送走了巧平。。。

巧平是我儿时好友,地球物理学专家,从美国休斯敦飞来。。。高兴!有朋自远方来不亦乐乎。 我们又唱起了小时候的歌:亲爱的朋友请你对我讲,再过十年你在什么地方?
从机场回来后,有些失落和怅惘。我还能再有几个十年呢?已经开始想念巧平了。
稍息,读了一段 Sam Kekovich 的讲演,也就破涕为笑了。

Sam Kekovich speech to Centre Square
Grand Final Day  (27/09/2008)

My fellow Australians,
I've been invited here to talk to Centre Square, in these big marquees
on Punt Road Oval. And speaking of Punt Road Oval, let me tell you
something for nothing - Jack Dyer would be spinning in his grave if he
could see the place right now. Full of a bunch of Collins Street
corporate criminals, Chapel Street designer cats and Toorak poodle
rooters who have about as much interest in football as Paris Hilton has
an interest in astrophysics.

Captain Blood didn't break every bone in his body and commit multiple
acts of on-field heroism and homicide so he could see his beloved home
ground turned into an over-priced pre-match party for
chardonnay-swilling spivs and their assorted hangers-on attending their
one footy match of the year, whilst tens of thousands of hard-working
honest battlers who love the game and love their team are denied the
chance to attend the greatest game in the world.

I've had a gutful. Whilst this bunch of Armani-wearing, Audi-driving,
Prada-carrying try-hards monopolise priceless vantage points in the MCG,
millions of genuine footy fans who have followed their team through
thick and thin have to make do by watching the game at home or down at
the local pub, whilst the Melbourne spivocracy get to sit on their fat
posteriors in a marquee and wouldn't even know the way to the MCG
without a tour guide.

Since most of you haven't attended a single match this year and know
nothing about football, let me give you a few tips - Geelong wears blue,
Hawthorn wears brown, and in case you were wondering, there'll be no
fashions on the field at half-time, and no, the Lexus Centre across the
road is not a prestige car dealership.

Centre Square is not only unfair. Centre Square is not only inequitable.
Centre Square is downright un-Australian! And so are all of you! In
fact, I bet you're all so un-Australian that you all hate the Anzacs,
you booed Cathy Freeman, and you want to cull cute cuddly koalas because
one of them once jumped out in front of your Range Rover on the way to
Mount Hotham.

But it's not just you who are at fault. I also blame the AFL - those
out-of-touch, opera-loving elitists at AFL headquarters who are
responsible for this unconscionable abomination need to take a good hard
look in the mirror. That is if they can handle the sight of moral and
spiritual bankruptcy staring back at them.

I also blame the government. Our new Prime Minister has clearly failed
his first test of leadership if he thinks it's acceptable to allow an
event like this to go ahead without a pre-emptive strike by the SAS. The
PM is doing nothing to ease the squeeze on working families on the
bottom rung of the ladder of opportunity who just want to see their team
in the Granny. But he'd better get his act together and do something
about it, or millions of angry footy fans will do it for him.
Revolutions have been started and governments have been overthrown for
lesser outrages than this. And people ask why we need capital
punishment.

So cut off your silver tails, tear up your fur coats and get fair
dinkum. Our great Australian game is the greatest game in the world -
the game of the people. Not some once-a-year marquee piss-up for an
overpaid, over-dressed pack of passionless corporate cretins who only
turn up for the free chardonnay and then spend the actual game looking
about as interested and excited as a line of Easter Island statues.

So don't bother coming across to the MCG this afternoon, because you're
not welcome. The next train out of Melbourne leaves Richmond station in
10 minutes - so make sure you're on it. Or, better still, under it.

So don't be un-Australian - everyone here in Centre Square can get
stuffed! You know it makes sense. I'm Sam Kekovich.
