However, look at me, several classrooms of students, an office of colleagues and a patch of work to battle. Yours is a really adorable life style for most modern, say, both New Zealanders and Chinese people. Music in your life reminds me the very first sentence of Shakespeare's Twelfth Night: "If music be the food of love, play on." I'd like music to be the food of life, apart from love. A disheartening fact is that most modern ears are not capable of appreciating classical music, which is among the college staff's duty to call for more attention from our dearest students. I really enjoy your every topic in the blog, very thought-provoking. Thx I envy you, a modern female Thoreau, just so far from the madding crowd.
