APAD: Dot your i’s and cross your t’s.

Hi, Pals

I am flying back to my hometown today and coming back in early May, this is my last APAD post for the month, may MYSJ keeps prosperous, may the recession brakes, may the president sane, he was excited on Friday since he passed the cognitive test,  it seems a regular test, not sure every politician needs this test or only the old folks or only the presidents.

"When America sneezes, the world catches a cold"

I once thought MAGA was a false proposition,why an already great country needs to be great again? Does it imply that the country was once great but is not great now? like the solgan we had in China 振兴中华?From the embarrassment of the trade war I understand now what MAGA really should be meant: re-industrialize America, is it too late?  So far MAGA coined by Mr. Trump is thought ironically by many as an incendiary nonsense. Now I leaned, in America it's really meant "In America, anybody can be president ". Enough for the discontent now, back on our APAD track. 

Dot your i’s and cross your t’s.

Be meticulous and thorough in your work. Pay attention to the details to ensure accuracy and completeness. 

The idiom suggests a strong emphasis on precision and attention to detail. It highlights the importance of finishing all necessary steps and checking for any errors. By "dotting your i's and crossing your t's," you are demonstrating a proactive approach to prevent mistakes and ensuring a high level of quality. The idiom is often used when a task is nearing completion, and it's time to make sure everything is perfect before it's officially finished.

Sometimes it is used to express your annoyance because such detailed work seems unnecessary and takes a very long time.

【中秋点歌交作业】【妖妖的天之涯有Home】ft. 妖妖灵,交妖妖灵点歌作业    来源: 移花接木 于 2024-10-18 07:46:52  [档案] [博客] [旧帖] [给我悄悄话] 阅读数 : 13176 (4816 bytes)    字体:调大/重置/调小 | 加入书签 | 打印 | 所有跟帖 | 加跟贴 |  当前最热讨论主题

"Home" 作者Michael Bublé 以第一人称的视角描述人在旅途中对家的思念,表达了渴望回家与爱人相聚的愿望。这首歌是Bublé 在意大利巡演期间为他当时的未婚妻创作的歌曲,歌词中描述了他因想念她而感到孤独且归心似箭的心情。【萱草花】同样是一首与家有关的歌,描述的是在家里的人盼望出门在外的人回家,两首歌一个想回家一个盼回家,语境上有着奇妙的默契, 故尝试把"萱草花"相关部分与完整"Home"结合.

  萱草花 - 电影《你好,李焕英》主题曲

Another summer day
Has come and gone away
In Paris and Rome
But I wanna go home, mmm May be surrounded by
A million people I
Still feel all alone
Just wanna go home
Oh, I miss you, you know And I've been keeping all the letters
That I wrote to you
Each one a line or two
I'm fine baby, how are you? Well I would send them but I know
That it's just not enough
My words were cold and flat
And you deserve more than that Another airplane
Another sunny place
I'm lucky I know
But I wanna go home
Mmm, I got to go home Let me go home
I'm just too far
From where you are
I wanna come home ... 遙遙的天之涯
萱草花開放
每一朵可是我
牽掛的模樣
讓它開遍我
等著你回家的路上
好像我從不曾
離開你的身旁 ... And I feel just like
I'm living someone else's life
It's like I just stepped outside
When everything was going right And I know just why you could not
Come along with me
That this was not your dream
But you always believed in me Another winter day
Has come and gone away
In even Paris and Rome
And I wanna go home
Let me go home And I'm surrounded by
A million people I
I still feel alone
Oh, let me go home
Oh, I miss you, you know Let me go home
I've had my run
Baby, I'm done
I gotta go home
Let me go home
It'll all be all right
I'll be home tonight
I'm coming back home
