un pensamiento para ti...

"He aprendido que todo el mundo quiere vivir en la cima de la montaña, sin saber que la verdadera felicidad está en la forma de subir la escarpada. He aprendido que cuando un recién nacido aprieta con su pequeño puño, por vez primera, el dedo de su padre, lo tiene atrapado para siempre. He aprendido que un hombre sólo tiene derecho a mirar a otro hacia abajo, cuando ha de ayudarle a levantarse..."

~ Gabriel Garcia Marquez


The Ballad of Suh Dong MV y mi clase de español

As you would have guessed, I think I'd be pretty much hooked onto this drama for a while...

The embedding code has been disabled so if you're even interested just click on the link above. That very funky 'ethic' song you hear at the 2nd half of the clip is the Suh Dong song. And I just realised from watching the serial so far that like good old Bollywood shows, Koreans also practice the act of running from both ends of the screen to embrace each other.


On other recent happenings, I just had my test for my Spanish course which means that if I pass I would have successfully gone through the beginners course and will be able to move up to elementry level. Wonder if I passed? I was quite freaked during the oral cos basically my brian is slow to process any information, more so a foreign language which I have been in touch for only the last few months. The writen test also showed that I have forgotten many vocab... Darn it, gotta get myself exposed to more Spanish medium... Any ideas how? Movies would be an excellent way for me but unfortunately Singapore doesn't bring in Spanish-language movies often.
