just wanted to share this old canto song that i recently re-encountered from watching a single episode from a recent lighthearted nostalgia-inducing tvb series called 青春不要脸. there are really many little precious things to be missed about the "old" hk - the pop music, culture, life back then, etc. as with everything nostalgia, they were in truth probably much less cool and interesting and loved at that time than we remember them to be. i do remember, though, listening to this particular song, among others like jacky cheung's 壮志骄阳, cross-legged in front of my comp on the tv console in my fave hk flat late at night after work one of those days. back then, i was still plying the night shift on and off and would watch all those old tvb reruns on free-to-air tv very late into the night, often at the same time building on the sims, to expend my body battery before going to bed (because at that time a day's work required only maybe about 20-30% of my brains and energy, lol). danny chan's 喝彩 was one of those, i thought, hopeful yet not overly optimistic songs that i felt at the time reflected very closely what i felt about life then - things weren't always easy but there were still many things worth striving for and i was happy and motivated to do so. so i really identified with the lyrics. and hearing the old song again makes me reminisce about those what-now-seems-like much simpler days of yore.
it's not that my views are substantially different today nor that things are particularly more complex now. it's just a somewhat mutedly happy memory of a time when i was fairly content with life. i guess, maybe another five, 10 years down the road, i might hear another random song and then go on to blog about how it brought me back to the "happy" time back in 2022 when i was seated on my secretlab chair in front of the work pc in my room, journalling about nostalgia in the middle of a slow news weekend, as i'm doing right now. guess life for me is a lot like this, just constantly looking back and thinking, oh what a good (or bad) time it was then.
in other news, while discussing attorney woo with colin, i just told her that i find this other guy far cuter than the main male lead who everyone else is supposed to find the most handsome and charming, and asked her to guess who. then she 毫无犹豫地 replied me full of confidence and very certainly "i know must be xxx" and went on to remind me of the time when i suddenly fell in love with some sushi bar server in nanjing and left her "talking to a wall" while i gazed admiringly at him. lollollol fml. but how can i possibly be so transparent if she hasn't even seen me watching the show?!?! lol.
