2008 Till Sjöss - Chalmers Kammarkör - 04 - Kråkbegravningen

This is one of my favourite songs in this concert, the style is like the Chinese ballad. Just bring you guitar and you can sing. I’ve found it was in Jojje Wadenius’s album Goda’, goda’ it’s a really beautiful song.

Only A2 sings the melody and is accompanied by “do do”, so smart! Still, the meaning of this song needs to be explored

Please enjoy…

Really Bad Luck, Lost in the 50% Propability!

Really really bad luck! I lost the PhD position in Norway.

There were two superivisors, one in a mathematician, on is a chemist. Last week, I got an email telling that the supervisor from the chemist side will leave and won’t be the supervisor any more, thus, the supervisor chose the other student who knows mathematics better.

Why this happens to me? I failed in the largest propability!

OK, life is still going on, I’ll continue searching! Come on!

Changed My Linux to Xubuntu

Today, I just changed my Linux desktop to Xubuntu. Xfce is claimed as the lightweight desktop environment for old computers with small memory and stuff… My computer is rather new, just has been used for less than 1 year, but I’m so tired of waiting for response as it was in windows.

It was hard work, first my internet didn’t work, then my SUDO didn’t work, but now everything is fine, so pround myself, don’t you think that I worth it?

Haven’t found a way to change Thunar to Pcmanfm. They are both light weight file browsers, but only Pcmanfm has the tab feature, the one I really need, googled a lot, no tab feature for Thunar and Nautilus either. Pcmanfm is my only choice.

I also found a great text editor — Editra, it has all the features I want, especially the code folding.

Great great, I love opensource, hope I can do something for the OpenSource.

It’s all for today, goodnight!

Welcome to Beijing!

I though I would stay in Sweden, enjoying my life and would never know any news in China until these pro-China and pro-Tibet stuff happened. The theme song for celebrating the counting down 100 to Beijing Olympics is great, I love it. I’m so lucky that I found a good version in Youtube, put it here to share with you, my dear friends.

I have been dreaming of studying or working in Beijing since I was in high school, I feel so comfortable when hearing “Welcome to Beijing”. Of course, it’s not a song for me, but… still comfortable, and nice. Please enjoy…

2008 Till Sjöss - Chalmers Kammarkör - 03 - Vattendrag

Here’s the 3rd song in this concert.

vatten means water in English, and drag means stream. I can’t understand much about the lyrics, something like fish boat, water and something. Sorry for that.

All 4 singers are Tenors, there’s a girl if you can tell. Her voice is too low, so it’s better and easier for her to sing Tenor. This is first time I’ve heard about that, at least before I came to Sweden. Everyone knows girls should dress beautifully but she can’t, she has to dress as the men’s do. Anyway, we just love it, no need to care about that.

It might be so anoying of the ‘numa numa’ thing, but it’s the style of humor, it works just fine with the melody and lyrics. So it deserves the audiances’ applause.

Please enjoy…
