每當人類社會遭逢巨大的苦難時，音樂總是一個鼓舞人心、團結不同社群的重要媒介。
When our society suffers from great misery, music seems to always be a way to lift our spirits and unite different communities.
《追光者》幕後 ｜Behind “Light Chaser”
爸爸曾經對我說：「一個人一定要找到可以陪伴自己一輩子的興趣，這樣不管在生活上碰到什麼挫折或逆境，妳都不會迷失。」
My dad once told me, “You should find hobbies that can keep you company for the rest of your life. That way no matter what hardship you are going through, you will never be lost.”
29・紅木｜29 · Redwood
今年是我「二十幾歲」的最後一年，我送了自己兩件生日禮物。
This is the last year of my twenties, and I got myself two gifts.
You raise me up, Dad | 你鼓舞了我，爸爸
爸爸，今天是你的生日——生日快樂！
Happy birthday, Dad!
The Banished Immortal | 《通天之路》
I recently read Ha Jin’s original “The Banished Immortal: A Life of Li Bai” on my parents’ recommendation.
最近在爸爸媽媽的推薦下，我讀了哈金原文（英文）的《通天之路：李白傳》。
蔥油餅｜Scallion Pancakes
蔥油餅是我最早學會做的幾道菜之一，是小學放暑假回爺爺奶奶家時，爺爺教我做的。
Scallion pancake is one of the first dishes I learned how to make. I learned to make it when I visited my grandparents over summer break in elementary school.
夢想｜Dreams
「小孩子從小就應該要胸懷大志、勇敢做夢。長大了之後為了屈就現實，夢想會越變越小。如果你小時候有遠大的夢想，即使它慢慢隨著時間變小了，你的格局還是會比其他人都大。」
My dad once told me, “As a kid, you should dream big because when you grow up, your dreams will shrink as reality hits. If you have big dreams as a kid, even if your dreams shrink as you get older, you will still have greater visions than others.”
今天是妳的生日，媽媽
兩年前，因緣際會聽見李健唱的這首《今天是妳的生日，媽媽》，深深觸動了我的心弦，讓我想起了我的媽媽，和十幾年來漂泊在外的心境。今年初，研究所的一位好友搬到紐約，將他帶不走的吉他留給了我。
水藍藍的驕傲
轉眼間，中女百年校慶已經過了三個月。校慶表演結束後，儀隊的學姐妹們發表了許多激情澎湃、賺人熱淚的感言，而我則是活動隔天就飛回美國，轉身投入繁忙的工作，直到今天都還沒有好好沉澱、細細回味這段動人的旅程。
