  5/27/2023 《台灣之夜》結尾的聲音 —— 1. 謝謝您, 團 員的邀約「唱臺灣之夜」丶我終於在忙碌的生活中,再次「以音樂和舊團員」重聚! 2. 昨天在唱完後也和指揮「道謝她的教導」 3. 也向 團長說「團長領導成功 !謝謝!」 —— 4. 濁水溪,二個星期前,拿 到鐠子。我在練時,邊唱邊掉眼淚! —— 5/14/2023: 感言: 1. 以離 鄉遊子,思鄉情懷,唱出「濁水溪溪水濁」唱到流涙滿面。當情景交融時,我想到「頭前溪」。我們家(水田街 - 新竹一女中)的最盡頭。 8/7 水災(好像是?)我 10 歲時, 跑去溪前,看到洪水暴漲,「自然母親」也不靈惜!天災侵襲,真無情也! 2. 唱時臺灣的地圖,一直在我的腦海浮現。 —— 謝謝隨時關注我 原諒不是單方向 我 內求態度謹 慎 我心軟愛護團友 卻常被誤解攻擊 心中罪過需時間 消除解憂方釋懷 再次期待下次見! 1. For the dear members who know the reason why I left the chorus at the end of October, 2019!  You are the one l can cry on your shoulder when l was down! 2. I observed how people were performing with their best  last night! 3. I was Heartbroken though! 4. I learned this the hard way. The more kindhearted and relationship oriented you are, the more prone you are to be used. 祝福 https://youtu.be/AHSBYNsq2Pg 放天燈 https://youtu.be/j2iwNbtOAwY 濁水溪 https://youtu.be/rMrkQOXhfks
