My wife, Mr. Ou Jau-Fu (meeilei's brother) and I were at Toucheng Farm on January 19 and 20. We had good time. The guide at the farm , Mr. Chang or 蘭陽阿山哥, was very entertaining. I will record few entertaining stories so that those stories would not get lost.
Here is a little poem that was read by Mr Chang and I copied from his blog site: http://tw.myblog.yahoo.com/jw!lpXEEN.fHxlWyjg.6wQCFmZ1L8xp/article?mid=309&prev=331&next=300 The poem is about what do we do during our life. The poem is in Mandarin. English translation is followed after the Mandarin poem.
1歲登場亮相，5歲的有樣學樣,10歲的功課至上，
15歲青春超ㄅㄧㄤˋ,20歲的春心蕩漾,
25歲遠大理想，30歲的基本定像，40歲的處處吃香，
50歲的奮發圖強，60歲的告老返鄉，70歲的打打麻將，
80歲的曬曬太陽，90歲的躺在床上，100歲的掛在牆上.
At first-year old, you appear in the world. At 5-year old, you learn everything from whomever you can follow. At 10-year old, you set the school work as your first priority. At 15-year old, you are handsome and pretty. At 20-year old, you are romantic. You have a great goal of life at 25 years old. Your life is basically set at 30 years old. Your career sails at 40 years old and you you made the last dash at 50 years old. You retire at 60 years old and play Ma-Jang (a kind of gambling game) at 70 years old. You enjoy sun-bathing at 80 years old; but laying on the bed at 90 years old. At 100 years old, your picture will be hung on the wall.
