childhood memories
it is sad that some of my peers are unable to speak fluent chinese despite their ethnicity. having been rudimentary schooled in some basic linguistic studies, i realised that each language is a supreme achievement of a collective human genius. having not used chinese on a day to day basis for close to 6 years now, my command of spoken chinese has become rusty. the alarm bells went off when i couldnt converse properly with a taiwanese climber when i was in krabi. time to revisit my roots.
these songs had a soothing effect on me. reminded me of childhood days. enjoy. or not.
