love the wonder of women

hi everyone,

this is something my mom forwarded to me, i really like it so i'm sharing it with you all... respect the women in your lives! if anyone wants to help me translate into mandarin, please do! ^-^
----------------------------
God doesn't give you the people you want, He gives you the people you NEED. To help you, to hurt you, to leave you, to love you and to make you into the person you were meant to be.

I LOVE YOU!!!!!


One Flaw In Women

Women have strengths that amaze men

They bear hardships and they carry burdens,

but they hold happiness, love and joy.

They smile when they want to scream.

They sing when they want to cry.

They cry when they are happy

and laugh when they are nervous.

They fight for what they believe in.

They stand up to injustice.

They don't take "no" for an answer

when they believe there is a better solution.

They go without so their family can have.

They go to the doctor with a frightened friend.

They love unconditionally.

They cry when their children excel

and cheer when their friends get awards.

They are happy when they hear about

a birth or a wedding.

Their hearts break when a friend dies.

They grieve at the loss of a family member,

yet they are strong when they

think there is no strength left.

They know that a hug and a kiss

can heal a broken heart .

Women come in all shapes, sizes and colors.

They'll drive, fly, walk, run or e-mail you

to show how much they care about you.

The heart of a woman is what

makes the world keep turning.

They bring joy, hope and love.

They have compassion and ideas.

They give moral support to their

family and friends.

Women have vital things to say

and everything to give.

HOWEVER, IF THERE IS ONE FLAW IN WOMEN,

IT IS THAT THEY FORGET THEIR WORTH.

Please pass this along to all your

women friends and relatives to remind them just

how amazing they are.

yep... my schedule has changed again... just updated, so you guys can take a look!

peggy 許哲珮 :"美好的“(2009-06-30 21:44:03)

我的最好的朋友、peggy許哲珮的最新專輯、“美好的“這個月在台灣發行了！

你們應該也有發現在我每張專輯幾乎都會有peggy的作品！這次我的新專輯“愛＊極限“上的“綻花“是peggy寫的～
peggy 雖然長得像小朋友、可是她是充滿音樂才華和自己的想法＋創意的一位歌手...
又會唱歌、創作、製作、演舞台劇、談樂器、做編曲、等等

我認是peggy的時候、我還不是大家認識的“eVonne 許慧欣“... 那時後我們只是兩個在努力追求自己的夢想的女生...
我們也一起經歷過很多難忘的事情、渡過困難痛苦的日子、也一起分享了很多快樂好玩的日子...
我很幸運能有個這麼好的朋友、另一個“許姊妹“、在這幾年給了我那麼多的鼓勵和支持的心！
是peggy那時後說我是個真的會唱歌的女生...
是peggy鼓勵我、說我的創作是夠好的、幫我做demo、讓我有多一點自信、說我可以把我寫的歌曲拿出來給唱片公司聽...
是peggy聽我唱小美人魚的歌曲感動到哭、說我一定要演舞台劇... 一直相信我能做的到...

peggy從她的第一張專輯、“氣球“就有抓到大家的注意、可是發完第一張之後、可憐的她等了6年才能發第2張專輯 (許願盒)! 所以現在她終於出了第3張專輯、"美好的“、我特別希望大家能支持她、不要違法下載不要買盜版！！！ 可以到她的網站www.peggyhsu.com 在她網站會有很多她的資訊、也有說怎麼購買她的專輯、還有她最近的表演！

we love you, peggy! ＋oil!

in one day, the loss of 2 iconic figures(2009-06-26 18:54)

i can't believe it...

farrah fawcett, one of the original charlie's angels, born and raised in texas, had a beauty that affected so many audience members that her hairstyle alone became the trend for women internationally...
michael jackson... a true icon, a pioneer and inspiration to the music industry and the entire world... i really hope that he has just staged his death and will be able to live peacefully, without the hassles of ppl taking advantage of him, being the media's buffet table to pick at and eat alive. he grew up under the spotlight and has never been able to escape the scrutiny of the world. i hope he will finally have peace, wherever he is.

rest in peace

hi everyone!



這張照片是在香港宣傳的時候、
剛好我們是在一個樓梯上拍照、
我看到這一個莫名奇妙的空空的小筐/角落、
很像賣衣服的窗子還是展覽東西的一個小空間、
所以我扮成個假人/玩偶娃娃/人像
... 哈哈...我的朋友都說我很像！
我看起來有很糊塗嗎？
我這幾天真的很累很累！
可能因為同時在拍廣告、錄節目、做訪問＆宣傳、
可是昨晚拍完廣告、就應該會好一些了！
我現在還在上海、可是明天就會飛到北京～！
今天聽到我們的行程又有變化、
as of 6/25/2009
7/01
北京-->長沙
7/03
長沙-->台北

其他的目前都一樣、我會盡快update你們如果還有變化
可以幫我把資訊pass給其他內地的歌迷們、我怕你們本來有座一些計畫會被影響到！

thanks! =)

adventures in traveling (taipei to tainan) june 7, 2009

the funniest thing was that ah-O slept through the WHOLE thing...
the blowing of the tire,
pulling over on the side of the highway,
jacking up the car to try to change out the tire,
hauling the car up onto the tow truck bed
(feeling like we were about to fall off and roll down the hill)...
he really didn't wake up until i had JUST decided to pull out my camera and film him sleeping!
i realize it's not as apparent bc it was dark on the car,
but actually ah-O has "I eV" shaved into the back of his head!
hahaha...

高雄、屏東、台南、香港！

to the fans i've seen these past few weeks in taiwan... thank you so much!
i'm so happy to see your continued support and also to notice your own growth & development over the years...!
i haven't sung any campus concerts in taiwan in so long, that for our new album's first 2 campus performances, i didn't really know what to expect...
but the students i saw yesterday and the day before, in kaohsiung & ping-dong、
you guys made it so great to sing campus concerts again,
thank you so much for giving me such an amazing response, and being such a great audience, it was really touching!
we just got back to taipei from kaohsiung & ping-dong this morning at around 5am,
tomorrow morning we are once again heading out, to tainan and then kaohsiung...
so tomorrow will be our last 2 簽唱會 in taiwan... good luck to you guys,
hope you can win the tickets to go with me to tokyo disneyland!
tomorrow night we'll be flying straight to hong kong from kaohsiung
so to all my hong kong fans that i haven't seen in a LONG time...
i hope the few days i'm in hong kong, i'll get to see all of you!

謝謝這幾個禮拜遇到的歌迷！
台灣的歌迷、我很開心看到你們的支持和成長！
昨天前天的學生也讓很久沒有唱台灣的校園的我很感動！
今天早上5點從屏東＆高雄回到台北、
明天一早又要出發去台南和高雄！
明天最後兩場台灣簽唱會...祝你們明天好運、
能抽到跟我一起去東京disneyland!
明天晚上從高雄直接飛香港...
所以...好久不見的香港fans...
希望我在香港的那幾天可以看到你們～！

to 小慧姐

天啊...

dear 小慧姐、

我看到妳的blog
妳真的讓我太感動了...!
我不是一個很會說話的人
中文程度也真的不夠好、
我不太知道怎麼形容我現在的感覺、
我那天看到妳的感覺、
再次聽到妳歌聲的感覺...
我一直記得那時後
妳那麼好心、
幫了我這個傻傻的新人、鼓勵我
不知道要用什麼字去表答我心裡的話
我只能說 謝謝妳...
我真的希望妳每天能過的很開心！
也祝福妳...
may your most beautiful dreams come true!


<3

愛*極限LOVE OVER

my new album, "愛*極限/love over" is out today!
lately things have been so hectic, but hopefully all our hard work will be worth it!
i have noticed that when i get tired, i tend to get dizzy, and be a little absent-minded and forgetful... haha... silly me...

今天我的最新專輯"愛*極限/love over" 出來了！
最近事情越來越多、很累、很忙、可是希望我們的努力是值得的！
我發現我真的累得時候、會有點暈暈的、變得更傻、忘東忘西、哈哈... 傻傻的我...






things have been extra busy since getting back from hainan... doing interviews, photo shoots, mv shoots, tv tapings, radio shows, entertainment news, and of course, after all that, i have to find time to go to dance practice! this month we're doing promo in taiwan, next month our tentative schedule shows that i'll be heading to hong kong on june 8, and will be there until june 12, and then around the 18th will be heading to mchina, and should be traveling within mchina for a couple weeks! i'm not sure about the exact details of where we are confirmed to be and when, but for more information, you guys can go to www.mnwingman.com for updates!

一 從海南島回到台北、真的超忙... 忙著接受訪問、拍照、拍MV, 錄節目、電台通告、娛樂新聞、然後當然通告結束、還要找時間去練舞！ 這個月我們都在台灣做宣傳、可是我看到目前列出來的行程表是寫我們下個月會到香港和內地宣傳... 6月8日到6月12日應該會在香港、然後18號應該誨盜內地！
正確的行程我還不清處、可是大家可以留意公司的網站 www.mnwingman.com

海南...


happy mother’s day, mommy! i love you!
你們有記得為媽媽做一些好事嗎？有記得讓媽媽知道你愛她！

聽說最近豬流冒 好像稍微好了一點... 提醒大家註一身體、多洗手、保持衛生、健康！

wow... 時間怎麼感覺上過的那麼快？
我在海南的時候、你們有沒有想我？
“美女不壞”一拍完就要回台北準備新專輯的發行！ 我們一到台北就趕著定裝、準備、隔天早上我330am爬起來去拍mv...


這次的mv我也很期待看拍出來是什麼感覺、因為有大明星郭品超來演！他也真的很配和、很專業、也很夠朋友... 大家都很累、可是他在拍世紀婚禮廣告的時候說過他會幫我拍mv、就真的做了！而且他還為了mv讓我打他巴掌！我真的很不好意思、很怕打別人巴掌、可是專業的品超叫我真打、只是盡量打好、最好不要一直從打！雖然我的手被他抓到有瘀青、可是也是為了我的mv, 所以真的很感謝品超！haha...

說到這、我也要感謝品超的fans... 你們真的很棒！很好、很乖、很懂事、讓我想到我的fans!！謝謝你們的幫忙＆照顧... 很感動！


最近就在忙著準備發片, 台灣應該是5/22發行, 所以禿然覺得時間好像真的不夠！我現在還在戲的睡眠時間、也就是說我睡超過4個小時就會醒來、身體以為我該起來拍戲了... haha... =_= 所以這次拍的照片、mv, 還有現在大家看到的廣告其實大家都很辛苦、尤其是我們家jessie... 每天陪我拍戲、還跟我飛來飛去做籌備專輯的事、還有其他工作、又馬上飛回海南繼續拍戲... 這次的工作也讓我在海南的時候氣喘發作了好幾次、我想有點嚇到了jessie 還有在場的人 ... 還好我都有帶著氣喘藥...


今年我妹妹的生日我已經回到台北、可是剛好ivy不在台北!！所以謝謝你們有記得ivy的生日、她看到一定很開心...!！幫我妹妹＆所有支持我的人許個願...


希望大家都在期待”愛*極限“、也希望我很快可以看到你們！

finally...

hi everyone!
how was your lunar new year's? did you get to eat a lot of good food, and spend time with family and friends? how was your valentine's day? this year i went to the office to give out lucky money to everyone, but these 2 holidays i pretty much spent alone, on my own... however, it's OK bc...

the guy i love is finally coming to taipei to see me!

hmm... i guess i should say the guy i'm in love with... bc... he doesn't know i like him! i've been in love with him for a long time... admiring from afar...

haha, ok i'm kidding, kind of... i'm actually his fan, i'm in love with his music, his creativity, his voice, his talent...
also he seems so quirky and interesting! (in one of his live acoustic performance videos he starts out talking in a french accent, which is something i do with my friends all the time when i'm feeling silly...)
so in actuality, i am going to see him... perform!
i really hope i can have a chance to speak to him, at least let him know i'm his fan!

i'm talking about jason mraz, a really awesome singer/songwriter... i first noticed him and started liking him when i first heard his 2nd album, "Mr. A-Z", and in 2008, he released "We Sing. We Dance. We Steal Things."

i love the melodies he writes and the cleverness of his lyrics, and his live performance is really awesome! his website is www.jasonmraz.com, its really creative and funny as well, and of course on youtube are a multitude of his live performances, so you guys can check him out! if you don't know who he is, you are missing out!

this will be my first time to go to his live performance, so i'm really excited, really looking forward to it!

in nanjing & what's going on lately...

hi everyone, we're in nanjing now... coming from taipei, getting off the plane at nanjing, it seems really cold! you guys also have to be aware of the weather, when it's cold, take care of yourselves and dress warmly as appropriate, ok?

after nanjing, we'll be heading back to taipei, and i'm really happy that i'm going to be going on a show with one of my best friends, peggy! 1/13, we'll be going on 王牌大明星, and should have a chance to sing some songs (hopefully together) and talk about some of our funny stories and memories we've had together! everyone can take a look at peggy's website if you have a chance, it's really very beautiful! i like it a lot, it's like a magical dream world! www.peggyhsu.com but just remember to choose "yes! i do", ok?

i've been meaning to introduce my friend, james jean to everyone... he was born in taiwan, grew up in the US, and for an artist not even 30 years old, he's won so many tremendous awards and has accomplished so much already! previously, i had worn a prada dress to a cartier event, and the print on the dress was drawn/designed by james! do you guys remember this dress?

he did the design and story for a prada film, "trembled blossoms", as well as artwork for the prada fairies collection... it's SO beautiful, very dream-like, and other-worldly! so... of course i fell in love with it! the prada fairies bag was so popular that celebrities across the world were pushing to get on waiting lists for it...

when i showed peggy the prada fairies artwork, she said, omg it looks like he's drawing you, angel! haha... i actually have been collecting these comic books, the fables comic books for years, but it wasn't until i asked the rep at prada about the artist for the fairies collection, that she said, "oh i think he's an abc, and he does some artwork for comics" that i went home, got online and searched for information on him, and discovered that lo and behold, the stack of fables comic books i have at home, james jean was the same artist who created every one of the covers! later when he came to taipei, he actually dropped by the studio and did a couple quick sketches of us!

if you're curious about james jean and his artistic genius, you can go to his website at www.jamesjean.com, or his blog at www.processrecess.com there you can order some of his artwork and products, books, etc, and also you can see some awesome photos of some of his works, showing the progression from the rough to the finished product... (and i think there's another sketch of me there, too! @-@) in november, he came out with a book, the fables covers collection, and i'm so grateful they remembered me, and gave me a copy of the book...

he's having a show 1/10 to 2/7, and it's going to be amazing! i really wish i could go, but so far i see my schedule is already set for work... but if any of you are in new york, you have to go see it!


another bit of news, i'm finally going to 日月潭! i've been looking forward to this event, even looked online, and the photos are so beautiful! we're going to attend an event 1/15 there, so i hope while we're there the weather is nice, and we can take some beautiful scenic photos...
dylan kuo and i previously did a commercial together for a really cool wedding event, where a bunch of couples are going to get married together in taiwan! have you all seen the commercial yet? http://gdshuangxi.com/
even though it looks really romantic and carefree, but doing any kind of shoot in a wedding dress while on a bicycle is not as easy as it looks here!
yes, i know i'm smiling like i'm on top of the world, but those flowers were actually really heavy! my left arm was sore from holding the flowers, i could only use my right arm to hold on for dear life (while looking all happy and in love,) and the dress was actually really heavy and long, even getting caught a few times in the bicycle wheels and spokes! that was scary bc if dylan kept riding forward, my skirt might have been ripped off, resulting in a disastrously embarrassing wardrobe malfunction, haha... thankfully he was very aware of what was going on and stopped as soon as possible... i think dylan must have had it even tougher than me, he had to ride the bike, wait and hold it steady while we get situated and arrange my dress; when riding he had to follow the director's exact orders, (faster, too fast, slower, too slow, veer to the right more, veer to the left more, wait for the doves to fly, avoid getting pooped on by said doves, etc) all without wobbling too much, and even when he braked he had to do it smoothly and slowly so the girl playing the bride wouldn't totally lose her balance and eat pavement! i wonder, how many ppl would have guessed that i was wearing flip-flops under that voluminous skirt...? do you all still remember how many times i have donned wedding attire for filming and with whom?

----------------------
hi everyone!
我們到南京了... 從台北到南京、禿然覺得南京好冷！ 你們也要小心、天氣冷要多穿飽暖的衣服...！ 回到台北時也很開心可以跟 one of my best friends, 小精靈 peggy（許哲珮)上節目! 我們1/13要一起上王牌大明星、應該會有機會一起唱唱歌、聊聊我們的一些好玩的故事跟回憶! 大家可以去看看peggy的網站、做的很棒！我很喜歡、很像一個夢幻的魔力世界! www.peggyhsu.com 只是要記得一定要選 "yes! i do" 好嗎？ 我也要介紹我的朋友 james jean 給大家認識... 他是個在台灣出生的、美國長大的、得了很多獎項的不到30歲的畫家！ 我之前在 cartier 的活動穿了prada 的衣服、上面的圖示james 設計/畫的！你們有印象嗎？

他是幫了prada設計那系列的圖案、在美國叫“fairies"系列、台灣叫“仙女“系列、在內地好像是叫做“精靈“系列... 真的很美、很夢幻、很有創意! 他設計的 fairies系列的包包、很多明星都搶著要、連我要買也是找了很久才找到！紅到全世界都缺貨！

peggy看到的時候說他應該就在畫我吧！haha... 我也是從以前收集他畫的得奬的漫畫封面、後來才愛上prada的那個系列... 問prada的人然後上網查才發現是跟我在家收藏的那麼多本漫畫封面的畫家是同一個人! 後來他來台北的時候有來錄音室、有稍微 sketched us 一下下！

好奇的話可以去看他的網站 www.jamesjean.com 還有他的blog, www.processrecess.com 在他的 blog 可以訂購他的作品、也可以看看他很多畫的過程的照片, (好像也有他 sketch 我的照片喔！） 他11月出了一本書、是他幫 fables (漫畫）畫的所有的封面！我很感謝他有想到我、還送了我一本！

他最近在紐約有個個人展覽、從 1/10 到 2/7, 我自己很希望可以去看他的展覽、可是好像那時後我都有工作、可是如果你們有人會在紐約、一定要去看！

還有一個消息、我終於要去日月潭了！我好期待！我看網路上的照片、真的感覺很漂亮！ 我們 1/15 會在日月談 (好饒舌的名字！快速度說說看個10次... 應該不只是我這種abc中文不好的會說錯吧！）有活動！我真的希望我們到日月談的時候、天氣會很好、可以拍些漂亮的風景照片！

我和郭品超支前拍了一個這個婚禮活動的廣告、這活動真的很 cool, 有好多情侶要一起去台灣結婚！你們有看過這個廣告嗎？http://gdshuangxi.com/

雖然看起來很浪漫、可是拍廣告穿婚紗、還要騎腳踏車其實並不容易！

我笑的很開心、可是那束花有點重！左手拿著花很酸、而且只能用右手扶著、裙子也很重、還會有時卡在輪胎裡！ 品超也很辛苦、一直騎、把腳踏車扶著很穩定、等我們把裙子擺好、騎的時候要控制方向＋速度、也不能搖晃的太大、還煞車要慢慢的煞車、要不然我很容易失去平衡感！ 你們有猜到我站在車上在穿拖鞋嗎？ haha...! 你們還記得我拍過幾次的東西有穿到婚紗、跟哪些男主角嗎？

happy new year!

hi everyone!

it's been a long time since i've written anything... so much has happened in the past few months, i bet most of you have seen some of my news, more or less, and have heard some rumors, etc... *sigh* don't take those things too seriously, sometimes what is in the magazines and newspapers isn't necessarily the most accurate, due to reporters' creative flourishes to increase sales, or even due to receiving false information. so don't get too worked up about all that, ok?

i wanted to say happy new year to everyone! this year was my first time to do new year's in beijing, so i was really excited. everything turned out fine, and we did our own little countdown after the performance. i hope everyone watching had a good time, enjoyed the show, and of course i wish everyone the best in the new year... good health, lots of happiness, and may your 'bestest' dreams come true!
did you all have a good christmas/winter holiday this year? this year for my birthday i didn't do anything special to celebrate, bc we had some family business to take care of, but it still turned out very nice, bc so many of my cousins were in taipei, so we all went out to eat together; it was really great to see so many cousins, some of whom i haven't seen in years!

the cold i got last time in shanghai and beijing is pretty much gone now, so don't worry, i'm doing ok now!

some funny photos for you all...
photo #1: backstage at 舞林大會 with k one, all the guys looking very cool
photo #2: a closer look, caught on camera... what is kido pointing and looking at?!? @.@
photo#3 & 4: in the dressing room... what is kido doing now???
... notice all of us (other than kido) haven't really moved much, since the photos were taken in rapid succession, but i think the funny thing is... darren is in the same pose as photo #1, which was taken next to the stage! and of course, notice jr in the back, with his shirt unbuttoned, and trying very earnestly to look sexy, while the truly HOT one is actually standing on his right... li yang, with his shirt pulled up to expose his midriff, and that expression! hahaha...

hi everyone!

好久沒有上來寫東西、前幾個月真的發生了太多事情了、相信你們都有在關注我的新聞、所以多多少少有聽到一些傳聞... 不要想太多、有的時候娛樂新聞或一些傳聞不一定是得到最正確的消息、所以不用太在意他們寫的東西、好嗎？

我想先跟大家說 happy new year! 今年在北京跨年、是我第一次在北京跟大家跨年、所以很期待、希望今晚的表演是順利成功的、也希望大家玩得開心、在新的一年能天天開心、身體健康、美夢成 真！你們今年的聖誕節也過的開心嗎？我今年的生日是沒有特別慶祝、因為有些家裡的事、可是有很多好久不見的表哥表妹在台北、我們有一起吃飯、所以在那天能 看到那麼多親朋好友、也是感覺上很溫暖的...

上次道上海跟北京的時候好像真的感冒了、可能因為從戶外倒是內溫差太大了、外面很冷、可是攝影棚裡的暖氣加上棚內的燈光是會熱倒流汗！可是不用擔心、我今天感覺真的快好了！我馬上就要開始準備表演了、所以試試看來不來的即upload張照片給大家看！
