So, I just got back from the Summer Program at Minneapolis College of Art and Design and I had the time of my life! I studied comic art and made a comic of Fengge and Xiaohong going into a pottery shop with an unexpected twist to the classic, "child in a pottery shop incident". The title is "Flowers and Juveniles", based off of the Chinese folk song of the same name (you can see the 12 Girls Band version on my profile) and I now have the translated lyrics to the song(I did not translate the song myself):
The village is not beautiful like the grassland The huge grassland looks like a green carpet The life's most handsome days are youth The youth is the spring of life The flower is not beautiful like the red peony All the life is no better than the youth
The peak of the Phoenix Hill, ya goes throughout the sky The grassland disappears on the first look The peony in the grassland shoes off in the springtime, ya Spring time peony actracts the youth The youth was attracted by the red peony, ya In love with the youth
There you have it! I listened to this song constantly while I was working on my comic, you can read it on my deviantart at chibispeck.deviantart.com, and for my buddies here at home, you all will be getting your own copies, and I will personalize them for you if you want. (P.S. I don't own the song or it's lyrics)
