Sing your way home
Sing your way home
at the close of the day
Sing your way home
drive the shadows away
Smile every mile
For wherever you roam
It will brighten your road
It will lighten your load
If you sing your way home

Hong Kong Currencies Lingo
水 water is money
草 grass is tens of dollars (usually between $30 - 90)
旧 is hundreds of dollars (usu. $300-800)
栋 block is thousands of dollars
粒 (or sometimes 皮) is ten thousands of dollars
so, when someone says 几旧水? 几草野? I understand it better now

Home on the Range
Kansas' state song – a poem originally written by Dr. Brewster Higley.
Gibson remembers this song fondly from his school days.
Oh, Give me a home, where the buffalo roam,
Where the deer and the antelope play,
Where seldom is heard a discouraging word,
And the skies are not cloudy all day.
Home, home on the range.
Where the deer and the antelope play
Where seldom is heard a discouraging word,
And the skies are not cloudy all day.
How often at night when the heavens are bright,
With the light from the glittering stars,
Have I stood there amazed and asked as I gazed,
If their glory exceeds that of ours.
Home, home on the range.
Where the deer and the antelope play
Where seldom is heard a discouraging word,
And the skies are not cloudy all day.
Hong Kong skies are doing exceptionally well these few weeks – not cloudy all day (but it's hot hot hot!). I am hoping Hong Kong keeps its clear blue sky (minus the heat) always!
