David Kong World Tour!

One day when we were watching LeeHom's concert, wanye asked:
Have you ever dreamt of having your own concert?

I said: Yes! My whole life have revolved around music so much that it has been one of the goals that I'm working on.

Well, at least, it's still a dream, and a goal. Okay, it's a dream-goal!

It remains a dream for the fact that I am here, stuck in this boring place called Des Moines, still studying now at the age of 20, when most successful performers started their career. And I don't have any special talents that people are willing to pay $100 just to see 2hours of ME. While I don't have a good voice that could touch the hearts of my listeners, my musical instruments skills are average.

Putting it as a goal keeps the dream alive in me! Even though I realized that I'm not gifted with a nice voice, I still believe that it's possible to make up for that by learning.
(Hehheh, pity wanye who has to listen to me singing/whatever-adjective-Simon-Cowell-could-think-of-to-describe-those-bad-singers all the time!)

What about musical instruments? Recently I've decided to pick up guitar and violin after watching LeeHom! Haha...

I think it's wierd for someone who knows music to not aspire to have their own concert one day! I gotta thank my dad and mum, who brought/forced me to learn piano when I was young. They wanted me to have an extra skill for my future, and of course i hope to expand that into bigger dreams!

Would you come to my concert? haha!!

Phone number vs Birthdates

I hardly remember the time when most people still memorizes phone numbers. That's around a decade ago. The rotary dialphone used to be the most trendy gadget to have in every household, or the can-never-be-bigger cellphone usually became a symbol for individuals and business persons. All these does not have the ability to save phone numbers, so the users still had to stick series of 6 or 7 numbers (the number of digits that a typical phone number has at that time) in their head.

Then came the "modern" cell phone that could do more than what is expected. They could save UNLIMITED quantity of phone numbers so that the users could just retrieve them from few press of buttons. No memorizing work needed at all. And if you are anxious to lose the scenic views in life or forget the melody that you just hummed, there's the camera phone with picture and video taking features.

Being a person who has gone through the transition period, I find that the former cultivates a good culture with which human memory gets better. As the number of phone number that you have to memorize increases, your memory power increases. That reflects the amazing brain that we have, one that is not limited by the amount of space available, but the memory space is upgraded every time we try to stuff in more stuff. Nevertheless, I'm a strong proponent of technologies that will help us become more productive.

"You need someone's phone number? I don't remember but my phone has it!"

Similarly, facebook has a feature that reminds you of birthdays in your friends list. Most of the time I remember someone's birth date when I see it in the facebook notification. So I don't remember everyone else's birth date except for a few.

"You want to know someone's birthdate? I don't remember but my facebook has it!"

Vacations

I'm spending my last spring break in Des Moines!
Not that I love Des Moines that much that I forgo chances to go vacation
But I have to WORK!!

Look, on Tuesday, colleagues asked, "You never go traveling?"
I said "No, because I miss you so much!"

On Wednesday, I told my colleague "It's only Wednesday! that's TWO, DUA, ER, YI, more days to Friday"
He said "Oh, I'm taking Thursday and Friday off, staying in town, chillin' "

Arrgghh....


These are the places that I would want to go

1.Cancun - A paradise island off the Yucatan peninsula, nice place for ♥♥Honeymoon♥♥



2. Hawaii - Enough said. HAAAH--WAAAAHHH--YIII-ppie

3. The Bahamas on a world-class cruise ship - I don't know why the top three of the list have to do with beaches and sea. But they are not coincidental. ;)




4. Seattle - I don't remember why I wanted to go to Seattle so much, but the flight tickets have been staying up high before economy collapse. time to consider this now? **winks**
