Music Explorations


Tonight, I'm on vacation. I'm in my room, listening to music. I'm not learning Chinese. There are no kids making funny faces at me in cafes, and no old ladies on the MRT peeking at my out of the corner of their eyes. No bopomofo tonight.

I found a great website called LastFM (www.last.fm). You type in your favorite artist and it plays similar artists. Oh my, I am in heaven. My first two artists tonight are Beck and David Darling. I feel like I've just jumped into warm blue water. I'm naked and there's no one here watching me.

Swimming free, there's nothing to learn, no future, no schedule, just pleasure and creativity. Make a date with yourself and check it out. (Trust me, I get no commission.)
