my early morning antics

I have been hooked to Wei Yi by Wang Lee Hom of late (click for music video). So yesterday, I listened to the song over and over again. Listening intently, while playing (surprise surprise) Spider Solitaire on my bed at 6ish in the morning.

Truth be told, my grasp in the Mandarin department is as good as a fat woman trying on a pair of skinny jeans. a PAINFUL process; not to mention painful to hear as well. Replacing the lyrics with 'ne-ne', for every word that I don't know. And this is how I sing the chorus of Wei Yi

Baby ne ne ne wo de wei yi

ne ne ne ne ne ne xinghui

ne ne ne rong yi

So I had my earphones plugged into my ears, thus anulling any sense of audibility of how loud i was singing. Plus I was in the zone, if u know what i mean. Suddenly the phone rang. It was my mom.

Mom: are u ok?

me: yah Im ok. why?

mom: are u crying?

me: no, i am singing

mom: oh it sounds as though u were wailing.

(at the background, i could hear my sister saying, "see i told u he is singing!")

at that moment, my mom sure as hell punctured my ego. bleargh
