Fighting with Mr. Mayor

Please please don’t be surprised, it’s not the major of Gothenburg, he is a “major” in the Violin Forum. He is so persistent that he is keeping posting his records in the forum, no matter how critically people are commentating.

I’m practicing the Suzuki Violin these days, and found that he’s also playing the songs and posted his records. So I posted my records too. I just found a really good example and friend. I won’t be alone any more.

He never uses IM applications to chat, but we chatted on Fetion today. He shared his experience with me and even said he would mail me a book and when I said my bow is kinda broken, he said he could mail his bow to me too. What a kind man! I should practice more and make me deserve it!

Here are my records today:

Long long ago 多年以前

2008 Till Sjöss - Chalmers Kammarkör - 10 - Att Angora En Brygga

This is a serenade song that girls sing to boys. It was sung by for girls, how lovely!

Talking about serenade, I recalled the news that I saw during the earthquake, those about couples, wives and husbands, the moving love stories. After a girl was rescued, a reporter asked her boyfriend:”How would you think about your future after this time?” He said:”Our whole lives!”  They suffered from this disaster together and sure that they will have a happy life no matter how tough it will be. God bless them!

Please listen…

How to Make Your Large Memory as A Hard Drive?

I bought a new memory for my laptop, now I have 1.5G memory, but my xubuntu can’t eat that much, so I’m thinking about how to use it. I found a very easy way that can use the memory as a hard drive. I can save my hard drive space and can make full use of my memory as well, that’s cool.

I don’t have to worry about the temperary files take so much space and make my computer slower. It will be cleaned up every time I restart my computer.

The settings are quite simple:

Choose your favourite text editor and edit the fstab file. I’m using vim.

sudo vim /etc/fstab

Add the following line into it:

tmpfs /tmp tmpfs defaults,mode=1777 0 0

And save, then restart X window, we are done.

2008 Till Sjöss - Chalmers Kammarkör - 09 - A Bay in Anglesey

Piano: Are Wallin (B1), he is so quiet every day, I’ve never known that he can play the piano very well.

Solo: Sara Sjöberg (S1), she plays flute too and she is a doctor in the medical department. She can control her voice very well, always leads the right tone.

Lyrics:

The sleepy sound of a tea-time tide
Slaps at the rocks the sun has dried,
Too lazy, almost, to sink and lift
Round low peninsulas pink with thrift.
The water, enlarging shells and sand,
Grows greener emerald out from land

And brown over shadowy shelves below
The waving forests of seaweed show.

Here at my feet in the short cliff grass
Are shells, dried bladderwrack, broken glass,

Pale blue squills and yellow rock roses.
The next low ridge that we climb discloses

One more field for the sheep to graze
While, scarcely seen on this hottest of days,

Far to the eastward, over there,
Snowdon rises in pearl-grey air.

Multiple lark-song, whispering bents,
The thymy, turfy and salty scents

And filling in, brimming in, sparkling and free
The sweet susurration of incoming sea.

Please enjoy…
