Many Thanks
LOL…really didn’t think it so soon that I would appear on BearMangazine April 2010 Issue. A guy named 牛牛 asked me on Douban if his magazine could use my music for the upcoming release. I surely replied yes and waited until days later I was told that I have visually and audibly appeared on that e-magazine. SO COOL.
I’ve learnt that this magazine is very popular within the bear community and keeps a number of regular readers. Then I’m going to keep an eye on BearMangazine in hopes that it will be more prominent.
Many thanks to all of you for your undying support.

好像, 寫博客都會如此功利. 這一篇又等到了我24歲生日的這一天才發. 希望這不會成為你們彈劾我的證據.
一轉眼, 我已經在2X的年齡段上走來這麼多年, 其實我有時仍然會恍惚地認為我活在1X的年齡段. 我系AriKID嘛. (傻笑)
今年的生日在忙碌中度過. 忙寫學術論文, 忙自己的前程, 忙自己的音樂專輯. 其實忙是個被用到爛的藉口, 來遮蓋一切過失, 比如沒有更新博客這件事情. 但是的確, 忙是我的狀態, 不僅這段時間, 也會是以後長時間的狀態.
3月22日(公歷)是我的生日. 這一天也是世界水日, 在這裡我亦要為南方缺水的人民和土地祈福. 同時, 這一天也是一年中第一個白天長於黑夜的日子, 希望世界上處處光明, 歧視, 戰爭等不公平的現象越來越少.
謝謝大家在不同場合, 用不同手段為我慶祝生日. 亦祝願你們天天快樂.
P.S. 下面這首”二十二 (2008 ABC Live Version)”是翻唱David Tao的現場版, 真的系在我22歲生日上演唱的 (ABC: Arikid’s Birthday Concert). 今年恐怕是沒時間舉辦Concert了, 還是欣賞老歌吧, 亦是對年輕歲月的追憶.

It’s nearly a month since I blogged in Chinese. Nothing has been posted, with neither Chinese nor English content shown, as I should feel “speechless” when given a platform where I can speak at will! Woo… It’s bad enough.
The Chinese New Year was over when I braked my work at the end of February and I didn’t talk in here basically because of such preoccupation. As a matter of fact, it’s much easier for me to write something in English, fearless of what is posted and who’s to be the next reader. But in Chinese it’s a rough job. I have to choose right words considering who’ll get cross at my wording, say my BOSS, best-behavior friends and celebrities. Also there’s possibility that they are able to read English smoothly but, to my great joy, they are reluctant to. 
The picture was taken on the first day of the Chinese New Year, a day off once in a blue moon, a day when I turned into my tiger year.
It’s widely believed that it’s a common job in one’s year – to suffer, to worry, to ponder and to grow. Here are my recent self-invention:
1. You decide on one while you give up on many.
2. Never think of who never thinks of you.
3. Sometimes chances flood to the passive, not the active.
4. It’s not bad to crush yourself once in that it makes you unique.
Fellas have returned from the holiday, marking the beginning of a busy year. I’m also left with plenty of work to do. But before I go bad, who cares?
