Give Myself A Break

A Jukebox

Doing a project like the one of Mother’s Day reminds me those days right before the final week in my college years – there were so much to do in terms of preparing for the final exams and so little time to ensure that every inch of ground was covered. Finally when all was said and done, I looked at the grades I got, and said to myself. How about taking a break and do nothing for a while. :))

That is what I am thinking right now. But instead of falling off from the earth completely, I am going to create a music holder in my blog and periodically share some music clips, just thinking it as a jukebox if you will,  with you guys so that you know I am still around by your sides.

In addition, although I may not update my blog for a while, it does not necessarily means I won’t visit net friends’ blogs any more.  As the matter of fact, I’ll stop by to tease and torment you guys just getting a kick of it.  Please bear with me if that happens, okay ?

Stay toned until I am ready or until our next project. ( if there is one.) :))

Hope you guys would like the music I picked for you. :)

Thank you for your compliment in terms of picking the music.

You are absolutely right; I just checked the date on Chinese Lunar calendar, surely enough yesterday was the day to start the new autumn season. Well, look on the bright side, before long the traditional Chinese holiday will bring tasty moon cakes to our palates.:))
tern2 回複 悄悄話 換音樂了?like this one too. 你選的音樂都好聽,不隻是好聽。
秋天到了,縱然。今天是第一天。今天被告知秋天到了,震驚了一下。。。
縱然平行 回複 悄悄話 回複tern2的評論:Thanks you for your kind words, however I don’t deserve the praise, and I knew that.:))

You are right, going through the trail of the comments below does give the perception of cascading of events against time within a “capsule”. Time flies, doesn’t it ? :(

This summer has been really unusually hot for many part of us, almost relentless in a sense; I guess it must also pose some tough challenge to a green thumb like you in gardening. But you seem managing well with quite productive and abundant offerings, for that I have to pay my admiration to you for talent and perseverance.

Keep up with all your good work, we need places where nature and human work together to bring out beauty and grace.

tern2 回複 悄悄話 這篇博文很有魔力。看裏麵的留言,我可以重新迎來夏日,重新吃上棕子,重新感受NYC少雨幹旱的夏日,再次享受清新的晰漓漓夏雨。。。而且有這麽美好的音樂陪伴。。。

3個月紐約的炎熱酷曬,沒有把我們的縱然君蒸發成空氣,看來雨中漫步是個好辦法。感謝 walking in the rain為我們帶來的神奇, lovely "idiot", hahaha。
This year,we northeasters have been encountering a long spell of drought. However, in here, we have rain, we have breeze, and we have laughter...

Not at all. Actually, that is a piece of encouraging development – you are doing workout on the treadmill. I guess it’s indeed a feasible and practical alternative especially when weather and schedule are less cooperative. The key, I believe, is to do as much and as often as you can commit your time to it in regular basis. The simple fact is that any type of exercise would be better than none.

You are underestimating New Yorkers, I think that even if i were shirtless, walking on the street, few of locals would raise their eyebrows. People living in this city are used to and much tolerant to the radicals, it's only tourists who might make the fuss. :))

蘇鄉門地 回複 悄悄話 Hey, walking in rain with your suits, may I suggest you savor NYC by walking barefoot in rain or snow once in the future :-) it'll be a very eye-catching sight for sure~~

I also enjoy walking in the drizzling rain but can't stand walking in high temp and suffocating humidity. So last night after dinner, I used the treadmill for about 25 mins. burned off 130 cal. not too bad right? :) Got to go watch some more games now...

Sounds like you’d like Priscilla Ahn's voice, that is good. But on a cautious note, please don’t drift too far or turn moody too deep, though.:)

This summer is kind of weird here, it totally defies the laws of weather tradition: not only the heat waves kept stretch and scorch like no any summer I ever experienced before, but there have been very little rainfall so far. So last night after work, I took the liberty to walk in the rain for about 40 mins, I felt great afterward even the rain ruined my suits, tie and shoes. She laughed with me when she saw me, calling me an idiot.:(

Few people realize that in the rain this magnificent city’s empty streets suddenly swing to life and reveal so much about their hidden beauties even some buried secrets. I savor NYC in the rain, which is way better, in my biased opinion, than that in London or Pairs for that matter.
蘇鄉門地 回複 悄悄話 "Rain by Priscilla Ahn" is an awesome moody song!

With such a nice clip, everything about personal nostalgia,
causing me daydreaming and mind drifting :)

Thanks for the sharing!

是啊,經你這麽一提醒,我還真注意到了。這歸咎文學城有持久的衝動和傲人的耐力不斷提升其網站品質。:)

不過,我並不介意時光倒流或者時光靜止, 我想你會不會也有同感呢?

放上一首”老舊”的薩克管曲, 也許可以幫我們對時光倒流,時光穿越,卻雋永如初,不離不棄的理解作一次全新的演繹。

溫馨提示: 音屏畢竟是音屏, 它和現實是很大差距的哈。:))
花自飄飄零 回複 悄悄話 縱然,你有沒有發現,你這一帖時光倒流了~~~

棕子是我的軟肋, 如此大呼小叫地“引誘”, 會讓我喪失抵抗能力哈。 :))

發粽子嘍! 端午節快樂!~~

縱然平行 回複 悄悄話 回複蘇鄉門地的評論:

Thank you a million for your kind tolerance and tender encouragement. I will surely continue posting music clips that I like, good, bad or emotional disturbing … :(

Sure, you can watch me to play if you'd insist; but I have to warn you first, it will cost you, fanatically although I am certainly not a master performer per se. :))

縱然平行 回複 悄悄話 回複orange88的評論:

是這樣啊?如此一來,城中夏日裏少了一位思維清晰,溫文爾雅的大家閨秀,遺憾ing。 :(

也祝妳夏安,旅途快樂! 希望妳會早點回歸文城,千萬不要沉迷“花天酒地”,樂不思蜀哈。:))
orange88 回複 悄悄話 嗯,用音樂來讓自己放鬆真是一件好事情。旅遊也挺好的。

我也要Take a break 了。祝縱然君夏日快樂。再會。

"老實坦白,我常常就是這樣彈得,彈到忘我的境地..." really? then my imagination did not fail me on this, wish I had the opportunity to listen to Master ZR to play someday:))). No, plz don't get me wrong, he is a fine performer, otherwise, I'd stay quiet and leave no comment at all.

Yes, Vermeer that is. Please Do keep sharing as you wish and ignoring any unfavorable comments ~~~
縱然平行 回複 悄悄話 回複蘇鄉門地的評論:

嗨! 怎麽一回來就這樣 “橫加指責”呢 ? :)) 老實坦白,我常常就是這樣彈得,彈到忘我的境地,整個世界似乎突然間就不存在了,隻能讓觸感去解讀和宣泄內在的情緒。:(

順便提一下,朗朗有時比他動作還要誇張; 所以要求不要太高,太完美就不真實了。。。

I am assuming you were talking about Dutch painter Johannes Vermeer’s work “The Girl with A Pearl Earring, which is one of my favorite paintings, I kinda like it better than the Mona Lisa. Well it’s just my lame taste.
縱然平行 回複 悄悄話 回複白玫瑰花的評論:
喜歡妳也喜歡。 (這句子是不是聽起來有點別扭/曖昧。:))

感覺上,妳很迷鋼琴曲,會不會妳彈鋼琴彈得很好? 印象裏,好像妳比較傾向成熟並造詣深厚的鋼琴家。不過如果有時間的話, 我推薦妳試聽一些年輕的鋼琴手的古典曲目。 現在許多青年鋼琴家, 不論是在指法上的熟撚,或者在演繹原作品內涵時,都時常有驚人之筆。
白玫瑰花 回複 悄悄話 好喜歡!太迷人了。謝謝分享!~~

馬克西姆,煽情高手,率呆啦,以至於分不大不清他的表演是否有做作^_^

好一曲美目流盼,放了兩遍,想到油畫戴珍珠耳環的女孩,無名女郎...謝縱然分享!

I am glad that you'd like the music I chosen, now I felt more confident to share. :)

謝謝理解,你的意思我懂哈,等我充完電後,再回來和大家分享。

不好意思;不過,我還在你們中間,不會人間蒸發掉哈.:))

剛剛認識縱然平行就要離開?Take good care!
花自飄飄零 回複 悄悄話 nice music~~~~
come on, zong ran, don't rest too long. write something interesting:))

If I am not mistaken, you just had your dedicated holiday for you and all of the mothers. So now it's my turn. :))
九月獨處 回複 悄悄話
Hey, what is this? The mothers are the ones who worked hard, why do you need a break? Ahaha...

縱然平行 回複 悄悄話 "博與不博,都不是問題,靜靜地用心思考著就成." I will do just like that as you've instructed and encouraged.:)

As for picking music, that is the hard part since one man's music could be other man or woman's noise. But, I am still going to give a shot at it.
蘇鄉門地 回複 悄悄話
博與不博,都不是問題,靜靜地用心思考著就成^_^

好主意,縱然音樂檔案,俺一定會關注D!曾經一度就這麽打算來著,
關了其它園子,留下聽雨軒,想聽聽,想靜靜,但沒你這麽慷慨,俺
隻放給自己聽,有人願一起分享,也好,無人分享,算了:)

Take good care!
