Past Regret

A windy & cloudy, rainy SUNDAY afternoon indeed as many people were scared of the tsunami that may be caused by the eclipse. In fact, my house windows were vibrating when the strong wind blows, while for those living near the pantai, you will feel a very cold breeze from the sea, right?
Back to the title of this post, 'Past Regret'. Let's share some personal stories of my 'past regrets'. Ok, I have got past regrets on choices that I had made in the past & now its affecting me positively or negatively. (There must be positive & negative sides of something right?). I had made wrong choices for MP3 player, mobile phone, my life direction perhaps? While for some people, their past regret was about their love life. 'When you have feeling for someone, just express it otherwise if that 'someone' already been snatched by another person, then you will be disapointed. And thats a past regret. Enough of past regret, lets move 2 something else.
May I introduce you to someone now. Most of the forum post described him as 'cute & handsome', yalah siapa yg inda suka handsome & cute singers especially from Korea. Hallyu Chaoyo wave is hitting Asia rapidly, but Im not gonna talk about any Korean artist, sorry! First his biodata (courtesy of Fampar.LiveJournal.com), then his picts

Random Facts:
-He didn't like music at first, but his father made him learn music. Going against his father, he learned ballet, but encountered an injury when he was 16 years old. At that time, his father half lured and half encouraged him to try out the music world and that was how Blue J became infatuated in music.
-The whole Ji Jia Song's family emigrated to Canada in 1995, returned to Taiwan in 2001.
- He became Wilber Pan's piano teacher and simultaneously became his producer and good friend. In 2005, the two of them worked together for Wilber's "Expert" album and continued with "Around The World" and "Play It Cool"
"Spilt Water Can't Be Retrieved 2009" is actually a song his dad produced and his mom wrote in 1989
-Blue J finally released his first album in 2009!
Some of his songs that I like are "Spilt Water Can't Be Retrieved 2009". This song is inspired by a classic Taiwanese song Jeremy's musician parents co-created 20 years ago. It's 1st integration of Taiwanese and Mandarin and Chinese song RAP. A combination of different musical styles, Acoustic R & B in the end, together with story-telling Rap, also part of Pop Refrain lyric, music among the remake of the old record player difficult to recover the ground water sampling; music arranger, the guitar Acoustic R & B performance, the instruments are done a different role in the distribution of so erhu violin tremolo, also played guitar in the end when the shells of the round of the Chinese musical instrument pipa. He links on a variety of instruments.
Another is 'The Same Regret', which is also one of the song in the drama starred by Wilber Pan, his good friend as well as Rainie Yang.
Next, is 'The Last Supper', its his only English R&B song in his 1st album, Blue J. However, most of his song have some English lyrics in it. For example the 'spilt water' song got a line that I really liked is 'YES PLEASE DONT GIVE UP DONT SAY NO'

Oh, thats him by the way

Here's another pict of him from his blog (Credit: Jeremy Ji blog)
Ok, I guess we have enough of artist stories, me not good at telling entertainment thingy. Ok, lets move on to another story, about ABC
ABC is not your Ais Batu Campur, but it meant American-born Chinese. These artists are really into the spotlite recently. Some of them include Wilber Pan, Khalil Fong, etc. Most of them cant write & read in Chinese, just like me. However, Im MBC not ABC but Im still not good at Chinese. Blimey!
Last piece, before I pen off, it getting long my post. For the past 2 GP debate, I have been appointed as 'timekeeper'. But, this Tuesday, the topic is 'We Should Be Our Own Censors'. And my team is opposing it, lets see how we fare against the Goliath. Its is gonna be David Vs Goliath? We shall see
On that note, Im gonna resume with my delayed work that should be done earlier. Till, next time Dont Ever Have Any Past Regret & Make The Correct Choice! Sayonara
