Reminiscing Old Songs

From Jeannette: The problem with not having a job or a set schedule is that you sleep at odd hours and wake up at even odder one, such as 4am or 5am the morning (German time), with a pounding headache and bloody nose. (This is a daily occurrence.)
I decided to counteract this misery with listening to old Chinese songs from my childhood. In this day and age google will find me everything I need so I search for “moon represent my heart” and Ms. Teresa Cheung’s u-tube version popped out. Actually I met Ms. Cheung in Vietnam when I was only a child. She was 16 and was a guest of the Taiwanese Ambassador, and sang for us. I remember her being tall and cute, had a mini skirt on. I did not hear about her till she lost her life years later; what a tragedy! I listened to Leslie Cheung’s version…then I listened to pu liao tsing, old song. Again the actress Lin Dai committed suicide. What a sad life. I just cannot stop crying while listening and then I realize that all the singers are dead,,, I gotta find myself some live ones or this will be a bittersweet exercise. Then I found Anita Mui, another by gone goddess… This is not good. Finally, I changed to Susan Boyle singing I Dream a Dream from Les Miserables. At least she is fully alive, although not sure how well; last time I saw her perform on Dancing with the Stars live, she looked kinda wooden and bad,,,… but the song is sad… It is funny how the best songs are usually about tragedy, about fairwells, unrequited love etc… We seem to love this melodramatic stuff.
I am lip singing this, and I think when one has the headphones on, one does not realize how loud one is really singing, because I woke Alan up and since I am singing in Chinese, he has no idea what I am trying to say. He just stared at me in horror, thought maybe I lost my mind…. So Sorry.
Took the computer to the treatment room and did the same; all of sudden three patients that are having drips looked up at me at the same time. I guess I am singing very loud. I hope they like my Karioke voice. LOL. Had to offer them chocolate we bought yesterday in Horb for peace offering…
I am not doing too well with all the infusions, so they are chelating me, which is to taking out heavy metals. I am just going through maintenance, like a car, flush the transmission, change the filters etc….
If they will not give me chemo, maybe tomorrow we can go out and look around a bit; I do get terribly nauseated during the car ride but shopping, now that is uplifting…. I still have lots of life in me to shop ….Cannot walk too far though…..
OK back to my singing, all patients have left for lunch, I am on my own, I can now belt out Moon Represent My Heart. Did you know Kenny G played that music???
I imagine all of my readers singing together.
