Everybody needs a break

….because he has no kitchen.

Seriously.

We’re renovating.

We’ve spent the past few weeks packing up everything and moving stuff around. The weekend was spent frantically covering everything in drop sheets.

Everything.

Includinngg……

Yup. Gonna be hard to practice Lee Hom under that.

The contractors came this morning, 8am to 6pm, and will be coming every day for the next 2 weeks…and after that we gotta put everything back.  

But we get a new kitchen out of it.  yay.

…..

Wish us luck.

Top 5 Visitor Home Countries

Here are the top 5 countries where the visits come from:

1. United States (3,746 visits)
2. Canada (1,776 visits)
3. Singapore (1,243 visits)
4. Malaysia (825 visits)
5. Australia (728 visits)

Ironically, if you were to ask me to list 5 countries off the top of my head with predominantly English-speaking Asian people, I’d probably give you the above list as well. Even stranger is that the top three visiting states, LA, New York, and Texas, also have a high English-speaking Asian population. Coincidence….or conspiracy?? Dun dun dun! Ask Jay.

Thanks everybody for making this site a success!

Now if only the T-Shirts were doing as well.

For all you non Canadian/Torontonians out there, if your local weather is not ridiculous you should be grateful.

The past two weekend’s, we’ve had 2 snowstorms a week of ~20cm (8 inches) of snow. One is mid week, which is okay, but the second one always has to fall on the freakin weekend, of all times. I’m tired of having to rejig my weekend plans because global climate change chooses to dump snow right after the working week finishes. Can we at least push it to a Monday? geez.

Here’s a semi-recent picture. There was a barbecue under here, once:

I miss summer. The sun through my sunroof, driving down to the beach, actually being able to wash my car, girls unbundling, patios, ultimate frisbee…yeah. It’s so much that winter brings me down, it’s more that when summer rolls around you realize all the things you’ve been missing the past few months. Without winters (and our bullshit snowstorms,) I’m worried that I’d start to take our summers and half-naked girls for granted. You appreciate what you have when you know it’s only not going to be around forever.

Incidentally, the summers in Toronto are awesome, pop by during July or August if you get the chance.

In other news, besides working on the T-Shirt designs, I’ve been working on figuring out Lee Hom’s Forever Love the past few weeks. It’s been a bit of a challenge, thanks to his seriously ambiguous chord choices.  Is it A major??  Is it C# Minor?  Who the hell knows!  They both sound slightly wrong!  I’ve had so many false starts on this song in the past few months, where I end up completely frustrated and picking up some random Jay songs instead.  (Yay Maple.)  Anyways, it’s finally coming along so hopefully that will be up soon.

Sheetmusic: Jay_Chou_-_ Secret_(Time_Travel_Theme).zip

This is taken from the “Secret” movie:

Due to overwhelming demand, I’ve bashed out a version of the Time Travel song from Jay Chou’s Secret movie.

This video actually worked out really well, but that’s really only because there’s an edit about every 10 seconds..lol. I’m not actually this good, consistently.

Still, a fun video to watch!

Thanks again to Tangerina for sending me these sheets! Even though you saved me a tonne of time figuring this out and making my own sheets for it, it still took me a month to learn and practice.

Enjoy!

Video: Nope.

MP3: Nah-ah.

Sheetmusic: ok fine, I guess I have to give you something.
