近來除了構思新唱片的主題及選歌事宜外，日常的工作一方面是準備教程或講詞，另一方面是資料搜集及研究探索。換句話說，既是講師，亦是學生。因此是一半時間工作，一半時間學習。當然還會留有一些時間給家人和休息，生活尚算充實愜意。
喜歡互動教學，喜歡思考，喜歡發表。記得小時候老師常常鼓勵我們發問，解說要懂得發問，必須經過思考，從而明白，不經不覺間便能學會，不一定要死記背誦。久而久之，不單真的學會很多課程的知識，而且習慣了這種思維，即使學習新事物，也能事半功倍，工作自然得心應手。
懂得思考、發問，最好還能發表。現在工作或是科研學習，經常要做presentation，懂得發表才是真正學以致用，融會貫通。

Music, Movie, Musicals and Me
Music and theatre have had a close relationship. Theatre can associate with movie or musical theatre (musicals) and I love both of them. I sing theme songs in some Asian movies, such as“When I Dream” (theme from “Dragon Squad”). It easily recalls people not only from scenes of the movie, but also from memory. I love theme music from movies as well as songs from Musicals, especially Broadway. I remember I have fallen in love with Broadway since I was 12. Musical films characteristically contain elements reminiscent of theatre; performers often sing and dance as if there is a live audience watching. Some musical films were adapted for the stage after their great success, such as “The Wizard of Oz” and“Fame”, while successful musicals also definitely received movie adaptations, i.e. stage-to-film adaptations, such as“Jesus Christ Superstar” and “Evita”. We can share our moments after all these years by passing through “Over the Rainbow”, “Out Here On My Own”, “I Don’t Know How To Love Him”, “Don’t Cry For Me Argentina”, “You Must Love Me” ……
“Moon River” (theme from “Breakfast at Tiffany’s”) has to be selected in my new album "Theatre" although it has been covered by hundreds of artists all over the world. I sing it each time, it seems like a live performance accompanied by the pianist just in front of the audience.
“The Way We Were” (theme from “The Way We Were”) must be selected because it was the song of one of my favorite singers that influences me most, Barbra Streisand, and I won the singing contest with it!
“For All We Know” (theme from “Lovers and OtherStrangers”) was selected, of course, in tribute to my forever idol, the Carpenters.
