Russet brandy in a dining glass

Everything is made of dreams
Time is made of honey slow & sweet
Only the fools know what it means

Think fast, what song are these lyrics from? And as a bonus question, which artist's performance of it am I tempted to dance to like a mad fool while no-one is watching. Incidentally, Laura seems to get a crazy amount of comments on her blog consistently. I suppose I can't complain until I start posting less frequently and in a more quality fashion. But she has always been a superior writer in many respects (too bad her talents are funneled into free verse though :p).

I have taken to corresponding with Brad through email recently... compared to blogs or IM, it seems like an ancient lost form of communication. The way we used to talk about letters. But I have not yet developed the ability to write letters. In blogosphere news, it seems Amay & Soobus have some sort of awful explosion. I hope this resolves itself and they remain friends. Also, I just realised all these people I am linking to have links on the side, which you could have just moved your mouse over to click.

Today, the morning was pretty random. My Living Tech. class was rehearsing their play for tomorrow. Taiwan English script & pronunciation of course... it's pretty funny & one can understand most of it. I think I get to see it again tomorrow though. Before I forget, check this funny link I found on Megs' blog. Well, parts are funny, & parts give me cause for concern.

Talked to my music teacher today, and she said she would gladly accompany (even suggested it herself) & suggested--because she has the music for it--"White Christmas." I don't know it very well, so if someone could please send an MP3/WMA to my hotmail or gmail (same name, just @ different places) that would be much appreciated. If I have to sing Christmas songs for Taiwanese people for the enjoyment of the administration, hooray for accompaniment. I think it's an especially apt song, as it can be jazzed & there won't be a White Xmas here any time soon.

Choir practise was o.k. but boy as I said, we're going to get slaughtered on that song. I hope it doesn't bring us any disgrace. Just not enough time working on it, plus the double ineptness of people who can't learn tough intervals & rhythms plus Taiwanese makes it slow going. Domestic Science we finally made the cake thing or whatever "Teramisu" is classified as. 'Twas fun, and we had this stuff called "Coffe Alcohol" (咖啡酒 kafeijiu) to use. But there was way too much so we started drinking little spoonfuls because it smelled really bad. It turned out to be good though, kind of like good black coffee mixed with liquer. Just randomly. Less food fighting this time.

P.E. was swimming, we had this near-impossible test where, to get 100% you had to swim to the other side of the pool in one breath, arms front & only kicking to propel yourself. I think some of the guys did it, but I went underwater 3/4 of the way, surfaced, and proceeded to deliver an incomprehensible noise of frustration. But the bus only took 35 minutes so I was happy. That's all for now, folks, K out. [50 minutes]

How come you can't download White Christmas on your computer there? M.

because, Mother, I've learned that mixing most song-downloading programs with MSN is a deadly combination. System stability goes out the window & the likes, just asking to mess up one's computer. But I went over it with Ms. Liu (choir teacher) today so it's all good.

Berwick serves Tiramisu quite often--grma and grndpa say that they hadn't had it before arriving at Berwick. Not sure if it is made on site or not. Was it hard to make? Looking forward to when you will be back here to show us on a big map all your adventures in Taiwan so we can follow it through. XXX OOO
