here are some stories / facts that may be surprising :)

1) sushi restaurants there serve something called HORSE MEAT SASHIMI
2) theres a dish that serves ... cow penises
3) the mosquitos there are so evolved, they learn to fly in from under a chair with holes in it and bite you through the holes (and ur clothes)

i'll write more when i think of them. but gosh gosh china is surprising sometimes o.o

Did you know that Martha Argerich married a chinese conductor/composer for a while?? she became pregnant with his child accidentally (lol, as Mrs. Ferrario says, these things are never ACCIDENTAL), and she went through the traditional chinese marriage. she fled to geneva to give birth, and separated from her husband. Due to the fact that her career is unstable, she lost custody of her child.
Her child, Lyda Argerich-Chen, was finally reunited with Martha Argerich 17 years later, as Lyda had become a violist and started working with her mother. *sniffs* i wonder why Martha Argerich didnt look for her cild in between those 17 years?
well, anyways, I learned the first 2 pages of Chopin's Piano Concerto No. 1 in E Minor :D:D here's a sample of it

Nutcracker Suite for Piano Solo, arranged by Pletnev Free Download

many people who have seen this video have been going crazy trying to find the sheet music for this, including me. finally, i found it in a torrent which included sheet music from composers whose name started with a "T" from all classical/romantic/baroque...etc. periods. haha, needless to say, I downloaded a bunch of unnecessary sheet music just to get to the 30 pages that I need.
I uploaded the Nutcracker Suite for Piano Solo, arranged by Pletnev, onto megaupload. here are the links.

About Twilight

around 10 months ago, I posted a blog with URL for the audiobooks of the twilight series. since then, it has circulated around like crazy! i cant tell u how elated I am.
HAPPY NEW YEAR'S btw. 2009 doesnt have a nice ring to it, as my friend observed.
ooh back to the audiobooks. when u search up on google "Twilight audiobooks free download", u'll find my blog on the 7th selection. SEVEN!! i'll make it my goal to get to 2nd, and that'll be enough. WHOOT
ooh and there was one website that wrote an article about the chinese not being happy with how the chinese actor was portrayed in pirates of the caribbean. it seems they took the picture of the poster of pirates of the caribbean 3 from my blog, and underneath the picture, it says "credit: wendyhyperwitch.blogspot.com" and "copyright: wendyhyperwitch.blogspot.com" i cant tell u how HILARIOUS it is to find that. AHAHAHAHA.
if u search up wendyhyperwitch on google, u'll find a number of websites saying that my blog is THE place to get the audiobooks. i feel so proud...
