Haylea Hounsom's

And gospelized karaokeized version. Kinda funny but still easy to my ears. Well, what can I say when the song itself is beautiful

English (UK) or English (American)

I am not a native speaker. English is not my first language. But I'll try to keep my blog in English. You'll might find some grammatical error, but I'll try to keep it minimum. Grammar Nazi.

In the language setting, there are 2 option English (UK) and English (American). I'm indecisive. I speak and write neither. But spell with -our instead of -or. Zed instead of Zee.

Eventually, I chose BrE. Can English just be English?

parlez vous anglais? (my habit of butchering French... what can I say, the only French song I sing well is a song with "terre de nos aieux" as it's second line.

hugs and kisses...
the ugly.
