Wandering around in Europe

After working for the whole summer selling shoes and cakes in central London, I managed to fix a holiday with a few friends in Europe. Since my younger days, I dreamed about being a singer and toured around the world with my guitar. Obviously, this had never been materialized. So while my friends were doing the cooking, I sang on the road side to entertain them in return and hopefully earned a few bucks for our next meals.

Here were some of the songs that I had sung:

Donna Donna

Vincent

And I love you so

Singing in a church

My parents were born in the war time and they were very hard working people. Naturally, music was not in their high agenda when they had to feed a family of eight. Anyway, teenager was supposed to do something unusual, such as taking drugs, dressing up like a hippie or engaging in 'love and peace' demonstrations or just about anything against their parents' wishes. In my case I sang in a church choir, but I confessed I loved the music more than the religious!

The song that I had sung:

I went to your wedding

A young child says to his mother, "Mom, when I grow up I think I'd like to be a musician."

She replies, "Well honey, you know you can't do both."
