My first Chinese friends:)

My Picks














Their Picks















Conclusion: when I compare my picks with theirs, I am more eager to solve my technical problems.

My two new friends were very patient with me and they really tried to help as much as possible.

One of them (the male one) even gave me a link to something in Chinese that looks like a music Internet portal (he talked about Vitas who apparently is a European singer, first time I heard this name...)

He sent me some picks that you can see above (the ones with avatars under names!) so I now have my first Chinese contact in my gmail;)

To the soul, there is hardly anything more healing than friendship.
Thomas Moore,Irish poet (1779 - 1852)

The light is coming...

You can't have a light without a dark to stick it in.
Arlo Guthrie, US folksinger (1947 - )

I decided to persevere...

The light is coming inch by inch.

Work in progress.

I am still invisible, but not totally blind, maybe I will find a good eye specialist.

Mountains far away!

In front of me, the South-West, good direction (I live in SW of FR...)

Behind me, the East-East, I told you that the North was strange in China.
