Popular Music
有時上英文課我都會帶入一些英文歌曲來做教學的歡樂加強劑 .一直都沒時間細心研究流行樂曲的演變,所以有時教到一些歌曲,介紹背景資料及曲風時,無法完美詮釋 . 今日終於可以大致串連以往教過的音樂團體,時空背景,及其演進 (多看書還是有用).由於好奇這些曲風 我也花時間上網找資料. 希望能聽聽看不同形式的音樂,開拓我的視野及擴增音樂鑑賞,盡而增加創造力,看看我是否又受到啟發.對教學方面又有源源不斷的新點子.



以下是美英歐的流行樂曲簡述演變,以表格來介紹:

2008 1101 Fall

11月1日
Fall
Before I knew it, the fall has quietly and gradually come into my life.

Now, I don't have to turn on the air conditioner at night anymore instead of covering a warm banket
on my body, which make me sleep deeply with sweet dreams. My nightgown is also replaced by pajamas.
During the season, cold drinks can not be found in the refrigerator, but more warm tea is put on my desk
next to my laptop. I like everything changes so much for FALL.

Due to the cool weather, I feel so comfortable and strongly desire to read more poems or novels besides
the windows in my room when I have more free time. When the strong sunlights go through the glasses of
my room and warm my body in the afternoon. I would select several my favorite books from the bookselves
and stack them on the desk. Make some warm nice tea. Then start my exploration of all the stories in the books.
Create my own mysterious world according to what I read. When I finish one or two novels, it's about time to
take a rest. I sometimes take it as a rule to walk around the park nearby. Sit at the sidewalk cafe in the park.
Taste a piece of cheese cake with a nice cup of coffee. At the same time I would watch the sun sinks slowly
in the beautiful colorful sky.

Fall allows me to have more time to rest my exhausted body and soul from the busy life. Although many
difficulties and challenges are in front of me, life is still going on. At the moment, I would take the advantage
of fall to check my past and plan my future. Wow, I enjoy autumn so much. Please don't go and stay with me
FOREVER!!!-cwh

2008 0706 結業會餐


7月6日
結業會餐
6月中旬所有的學習課程告一段落,班上可愛可敬的學生们辦了一場謝師宴,
熱鬧非凡.真要感念當初學生的擁躍學習,才讓這班生龍活虎,唯一可惜的是
班上40位學員來自四面八方,各人的英文起步都在不同階段,於是同班不同
質的落差很大.只好邀求晚起步學習的同學撐過這一關,同時早起步的同學
放慢腳步,攜手扶持需要幫助的同學.還好在期末時,已有所展穫,大家都進步
不少.不管這期會留失多少學生,我都感恩他们不分雨晴的認真來上課,
願上帝祝福你们!

2008 0503 研究所校友台北聚餐

5月7日
2008.5.3.研究所校友台北聚餐
5/3日的校友聚餐多虧Fion的熱心邀約,才把忙的團團轉的我们湊在一塊.所以表示感謝要將Fion的照片擺在相片本第一張,表揚表揚.

當日一大早原本要趕去台大聽演講,可惜遲了些,所以改變心意到重慶南路的一家日式麵包店裡享受週末晨間的幽閒寧靜,順便品嚐了店內精緻的早餐,隋身抽出一份New York Time,慢慢咀嚼字裏行間的意義,及文章帶來的省思. .原來週六大早到這家麵包店來坐的客人那麼頻繁,有學生跟家教老師,去打小白球的球友,用功的學生,長青族聚會的長者,剛逛完市場的女人,及出遊的一家人,點綴著小小的bar熱鬧非凡,來來往往的人像一首田園交響曲,時而像雷聲一樣的吵雜,時而恬靜安逸,我浸潤在這個情境下,感緊補捉這首曲子的感覺,沉醉其中.

11:30離開了麵包店朝忠孝敦化捷運站前去,到處是出遊的人潮,好不容易到站後,Fion來接我去聚餐的地點.看到久惟的Nicol, the Ho family,Ivy等人高興的不得了,大家七嘴八舌的想要在短短的幾分鐘之內了解所有人的近況和動向.於是在Asus工作的Ivy第一個宣佈結婚的好消息.Ho在當律師事務所的經理,太太還在任法官,小女兒長的更可愛茁壯,Fion也有好消習,她全民英檢中高級過關,真有她的,Nicol也調到台北公司化妝品部,很合她的專業及氣質,其他的校友都在擔任要職,經過一年度的職場及人生磨練,表現出來的氣度就是不一樣,大家都成熟及謙遜許多.

說到最後就是我们英語教學系的校友最不團結,到現在還遲遲聚不到一起.連一點小連繫都盼不到,也許當老師真的太勞心勞力了吧!

祝福所有認真生活,為社會供獻的人!

Our days in Hillderstone, Kent, UK


With lots of fantastic memories fm Hilderstone College during the period we stuck together, I would like to build up this photo page to light up our friendship again.



Here is my best friend, Elizabeth fm school. We spent wonderful time together no matter at or after school. Since we left UK, we have been meeting several time in Switzerland, Taiwan, and Germany. Our friendship is amazing and can not find now a day. Thanks for the flowers for me once a year fm Switzerland.



Don and I shared sometimes in school's hall and the pubs. We had a good time when chatting together. He was one of my good friends in school.



Gisela (the third one fm left), a sweet Swiss girl, and I had a good time in the same class in winter term. Our friendship has been jumping over millennium.


I love my Japanese friends. During school days we took care of each other. Shared heart-to-heart secrets. We cried together and We laughted together.

暑期最後一節課,與活潑可愛的小朋友飆歌,再say goodbye前一起合照了
好多張經典照,不好意思放在網站上,只好放較美的幾張,其餘做鬼臉的
搞笑照片只有自己欣賞了.感謝Rose和Ping的照顧,真不好意思讓Ping
自討腰包買了一些小禮物送給全勤的同學.小朋友真的樂翻天了.

下午又與舞蹈老師學跳韻律舞,一把老骨頭快散了,不過跳了以後好舒服.
可能考慮九月份只要課不沖堂就去上老師的運律舞課程.今天真開心!
