And this made my day...

THIS was unexpected and pleasant and encouraging. Thanks so much for the mention Jas! 

Shout out to my friends [blogger or otherwise] who've never stopped encouraging me and believing in me. THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!

It has been quite an exhausting February. I'm now at Burger King, trying to make full use of the Wi-Fi and the air-conditioning. I was cheated out of 15 bucks just now by a taxi driver, and that got me a little grumpy. Also, my flight to Taipei is at 5.30pm. So now, I need to kill an hour or 2 before I head back to LCCT and bum around with all the 'budget-airliners'. 

On the bright side, getting my passport/visa from the embassy today was quite a breeze. Thank you Daddy God for that. Everything went quite smoothly and the officer didn't give me much grief. I wish I could just stay a solid 6 months in Taipei this time, but looks like I'll be flying out to the States in April, or Malaysia in July, or both. So....argh . Never-mind. I need to stop whinging about the traveling. It does take its toll on my physical health [every time I fly or bus it for long hours, I'm more susceptible to falling ill], and mental/emotional stability. Now that I've hit my late twenties [shudders] as well, I notice my body deteriorating in ways it never used to when I was 5 years younger [spotty skin, dark eye rings that never go away, lines etc]. When I voice out such concerns people brush it off, but what I see in the mirror does start to freak me out from time to time. Just needing to come back to God for a re-focus every-time these fears and concerns come by. 

There is so much to do once I return to Taiwan. My Chinese EP pre-production needs to get crackin'. And my demos for a publishing deal needs to be ready in a month or so as well. It will be full time messing around with demos and stuff. AND, I've been a laggard with my Youtube videos. So that needs to move along as well. Argh...the 10000001 things to do when one is an independent artist.

Fear and Faith

I wish I could get rid of this feeling of underlying fear that grips me once in a while. After every high there is an inevitable crash. Or when I wake up, it's really hard to face the day not quite knowing what you should do or what the goal is in the end.  I can picture this trembling kid in my mind, who's quite desperate to cling on to something for safety and comfort. And that kid is me. But the kid's alone. And there's no one to actually to hang on to, and nothing to hug, not even a pillow. But the kid is also wary of clinging on to anything because that might prove disastrous, as it has in the past. You get entangled with unnecessary things or people So,  Kid is stuck with just holding nothing. Waiting.  I mean, it's not like God never warned or foretold that this journey would be lonely, I'd be seemingly alone, but He would be with me. I would look like I was wobbly but He would uphold me. The only time the fear really alleviates is when God's pres...

陶喆 David Tao Mash Up 2 - 流沙/普通朋友 (by Charis蔡佳靈 + Nray 胡恩瑞 + 森林ㄌㄜˋ園)

高中會重覆聽100遍的歌就是‘普通朋友' 和 ‘流沙‘ ☺️ 很開心可以和  森林ㄌㄜˋ園 團長阿綠把這兩首百聽不厭的歌串在一起,重編成band sound的歌;然後和  N-Ray 胡恩瑞  &樂手朋友們呈現出來。謝謝有才的朋友們的參與!也再次謝謝負責攝影間接 Rick Lin 。希望你們會喜歡~歡迎分享、留言、訂閱、按 💗  !也可以跟我們說你們要接下來聽的歌 (那些點‘沙灘’的朋友我已看見你們的留言!) I remember re-playing 'Regular Friends' and 'Everything's gone' so many times on the way to school. They were such classic hits! Here's the 2nd David Tao mashup video we produced. My gifted singer/songwriter/keyboardist friend Green Lee sat down with me to re-arrange it together (guess which other song we used as a base for the two tracks 😁 ?). Had lots of fun recording and shooting this with my talented pals! Please help us share around, and do subscribe if you haven't yet!
