Just a westerner man's personal blog on his journey to try to learn Chinese with the aim to write, compose and sing a chinese song for his wife on the 10th wedding anniversary on the 14/02/2010. I am legally deaf (5% hearing in each ear) and have never learnt Chinese before. It all started from a crazy idea (maybe an impossible idea) right at the start of Feb 2007. So the journey continues... ALL SONG, LYRICS (ENGLISH AND CHINESE) AND MUSIC BELONG TO GEIWODELAOPO.COM AND UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES MAY BE COPIED WITH OUT WRITTEN CONSENTS FROM GEIWODELAOPO.COM (c) GEIWODELAOPO / 笨老公 2007/2008/2009/2010, All rights reserved. |
我的老婆,
Who would have thought that a small little idea back in Jan 2007 would lead down this path and take me on a journey...
I know we have many ups and downs, have happy moments and sad moments, good times and the bad. I know that I can be difficult to be with sometimes. And would like to say thank you for your support, caring and love over the years.
For once I am lost for words in what to say and maybe this time no words are needed. Happy 10th Anniversary!!
Lot's of love always,
笨老公

You can find the final public version of the video song at:
Since 2007 it has been a huge learning curve for me. To learn Chinese, write the songs, understand the singing style of Chinese which is very different to English songs. It was hard to find the lyrics that was appropriate for the 10th year. In the end I choose this one. You can see some of the other songs I write below.
You can read more about this song at:
Me singing early draft of song:
The idea for the lyrics came to me while travelling with you and families from Malaysia to China. Upon return to Australia I completed the lyrics to the song. I like the words and the meaning in the song very much. Very likely I will revisit this song after my skill set has improved.
You can read more about this song at:
The idea for the lyrics came based on my own life. I was always searching for someone who shared my viewpoint and meaning of love. Simple fact is that I waited a long time for you to come along. It was well worth the wait.

Music playing for song:
This was one of the very first songs I worked on starting way back in 2007.
Most certainly not... Let's work on a new mission... This of course depends on rabbit.
Some of the ideas that I have was to continue progressing and improving song writing and singing. Perhaps we can reach an acceptable level where we can submit our song into a competition in China. Whether we win or loose - doesn't matter. Just our love story in the song is all that counts... We have a long way to go... but considering from where we came from... nothing is impossible.

Can things get any more busier?
Really…
So it seems rabbit is commenting now…
So it seems rabbit is reading the blog and commenting. Kind of feels weird as before writing for many years without her knowing.
Work is so busy that I have not had time to work on the blog. Or have as much time to continue with the song writing as I like. I do have the new professional keyboard that I am very happy with. Occasionally, I am trying to develop a new tune for singing when driving in the car. But it seems harder these days to develop the tune.
Additionally, I am enjoying a bit of a rest. I think the last mission take a considerable amount of effort. In many ways - more challenging then getting a university degree.

Being teased bad!!!
Rabbit is really teasing me bad… saying only a crazy would do all this for her… Maybe I am desperate.
It confused me - how can I be desperate? It is our 10th year… Maybe you can call me eccentric - that would probably make more sense.
Any way - after I got a bit flustered she was laughing and saying that she was only teasing and I fell for it big time!!!!
Now must think of a plot to pay her back big time… Then we all can have a good laugh!!! 
Miss the count down…
U know before we had the count down until the 10th anniversary… now it really kind of feels weird not counting down to anything.
It is like I need to check to see what we are counting down too… and not seeing it - I fell OMG - WTF… what are we counting down too…
Maybe should modify it so can count down to the next Valentines day… if we could pull off a miracle and write a new song for each valentine day - then by the 20th wedding anniversary - I would have a music album with 10 new songs on it. Hopefully with better improvement as we go along. Any way - must be dreaming… simply no time at all.
Entrepreneurship it taking me on a journey where leaves me very little time. Rabbit manages my work/life work balance very well. So not too worried there… I often wish that I had more hours in a day - that would be really cool…
慢慢来， 你不要担心， 明天会来快… Can you say that? ming1 tian1 hui lai kuai4?
Am back…
Rabbit would like the blog to continue.
I must say the whole weekend packed from Friday (I took Friday off for preparations) all over the Weekend has been fantastic. There is way to much to jot it down here. But all I can say was that this was one of the most memorial moments in my life. Rabbit was taken back, in disbelief, overwhelmed and did cry a little.
She asked if this blog would continue - in which I would more like to. And she would like as well. She says she needs time to read the blog entries and can’t believe they go back as far as 2007.
Song writing would continue. I guess should be easier with rabbit to help correct me. Perhaps I can sing a little Malaysian Chinese accent?
I will write more later…

Final blog posting
我的老婆，
U know I have spent years wondering what to write for the final message. This little idea has taken me onto a journey in a way that I never thought possible. I can see this journey still continuing in a way never imagined. I do not have any final words to say and maybe words are not really needed this time.
Thank you for sharing your life with all of us, being a super wife and mum, and standing by me through all the good times and bad times.
Love you always,
笨老公
So excited!!!
At last I have rabbit’s gift for me - have the full professional keyboard. In fact I can see her very hesitant and unsure why on earth would I request this as a gift. Can’t believe she has no idea… The gift is just perfect. Really would like the mission to continue - the next 10 years will be exciting given that my children would be making some progress in music. Perhaps we can all have more fun together and jointly play something. Already sounds so fun. If we have to vote for a band name - I will happily vote for “笨老公and the miracles”
Have a few new songs in mind. I am hoping the singing of Chinese will greatly improve with the help of my wife. At last I can just ask her to help me sing the Chinese and improve.
I am also looking forward to our 10 year anniversary holiday in which we will go away later in the year - when the weather is much cooler. God we both hate this hot weather.
Isn’t really long to go - better get a move on with the list of tasks still outstanding…
Nearly done!!!
