The gift from Yan Fook Praise Team B: a guitar

Here I am in Houston Texas. It's the sixth day here and I spent most of the time staying at home messing new my new laptop computer (Lenovo X60t, a Tablet PC) and conducting my life online. So far so good, since there's a lot I need to do (like paying bills at Hong Kong, job hunting online, communicate with friends in Hong Kong, reorganizing all the stuff I scanned into my computer in the last 1.5 months.) So I am OK. Hopefully after my 1Gb memory comes, I can start building my software development environment and get back in shape on programming.

Rehearsing some dance pieces is my next step, as I am still suffering from flu right now. I should be OK after 1 to 2 more days.

And then this guitar.

When I was about to leave Hong Kong, Praise Team B at Yan Fook tried to give me something. To put the long story short, they collected some money and asked Pastor Alex Luen to buy a second guitar for me (that's sort of my suggestion). Well, yesterday Alex came by and delivered the guitar, so you can see from the photos below.

The guitar is a very basic one, with no fancy line out or stuff to adjust. But that's the beauty of it: so simple, and yet it sounds so warm and sweet. Too bad that the high E string was broken while Alex was test driving it at my home, so I have to wait until I get time (after I got my permanent resident card, and then Texas ID, and then Driving License, and then update the insurance record of my car).

In addition, the guitar case itself is pretty awesome. It's a hard case box with a zipper and even .....


... a number lock! Geee, I hope I won't mess up the security number and thus render the box to be locked.



Here's the look of the guitar in the box.


That's the brand. I have no idea what's good or what's bad. But at least when I played it, it sounds very nice (but then the last guitar I had was a crappy HK$260 guitar, so what do I know :-E)


As you can see the high E string is missing.


And look, a thermometer! (like ... why?)


And finally a secret comparment. I found no wee in it. (.....)


So here you go. The guitar. Thanks Alex and thanks the whole Yan Fook Praise Team B!!
