It’s only fair that he has some Chinese songs, as his heritage is Chinese (most recent incarnation being mixed Slavic-Chinese).
Here’s one of my favorite songs in Chinese:
Lyrics in English (my own translation):
Life is like a river, sometimes peaceful, sometimes wild
The present is like a lock, imprisoning me in its clutches, and I can’t get free
This life is like a sharp knife, cutting me open again and again
But I know I want that happiness, to soar like the highest skies
I want to fly higher and higher, dancing in the wind’s embrace
I want to fly higher and higher, spread my wings and soar with the wind
Fly higher
I keep flying, I keep searching, but I can’t find what I’m looking for
If I truly want to be free, I must cut away the net that traps me
I want to live a blazing life, I want the sky to be the purest blue
I know I want that happiness, to soar like the highest skies

Hello readers!
This is Aja (pronounced Asia). Welcome to my site!
A bit about myself:
I’ve been writing stories since the age of six, and novels since the age of thirteen. Can’t say that those early efforts were particularly good, but I sure loved putting them down on paper! And whether I document them or not, stories are forever forming and expanding and interconnecting in my head.
The best part is–it’s completely organic, the way the stories develop. When the inspiration hits, I write just so I myself can learn where the characters are headed because oftentimes, they take me by surprise! It is my ultimate dream to become a best-selling novelist one day and share my stories with as many readers as I possibly can.
My other loves include art, cooking, old movies (anything with Audrey Hepburn, Marilyn Monroe, Robert Redford, Vivien Leigh, Elizabeth Taylor, Paul Newman, Clark Gable, and all the song and dance numbers because you can’t watch them and not be happy!)
I adore taking long walks with my husband and running after my two rambunctious kids. I have traveled extensively (all seven continents except Antarctica) and have a multi-cultural upbringing. I speak two and a half languages and binge watch TV shows when the mood strikes.
I love hearing from readers, so please contact me directly! Subscribe to this blog to get the latest news and updates and free chapters in upcoming books!
Ciao for now!
XOXO Aja James
