taiwan II!

In taichung for the second day, tired and just really tired. Had my dad's colleague's wife as a tour guide for today, hmm.. not too bad an experience apart from her constant nagging at us to eat the fruits she prepared. >.< 卑南族, one of the nine cultures! I've pictures too! Many cute ones coz it was the time my sis and i got a bit cranky. haha! Didnt get onto the freaky rides coz i'll really die from them. Some of them were quite cool though, the pictures will tell them all!

The journey to Sun Moon Lake was tiring and boring. Kept driving through the never-ending winding road to the mountain. waa.. almost died. But this trip was so futile coz the mist was so thick thus we werent able to see much of the scenery. sigh! Next the Bonsai exhibition was quite an unexpected trip. Coz we actually decided to go back to hotel but the guide decided we should visit this exhibition because it's quite a rare chance. Well it proved to be quite a fun trip! Sis and i did some lame camera shots there. hee..

Now pictures time!


the taipei airport

pictures to be continued... due to the inefficiency of our beloved

taiwan!

heyhey! i m in taiwan! in taichung to be exact. actually wanted to blog yesterday to bid goodbye to all but i ended up reaching home at about 8.30pm and had to pack my luggage. Was so tired that i couldnt find time to blog. packed till 1am and fell asleep much later, thus the fatigue i experienced during the flight. luckily i didnt get a headache and spoil the holiday.

today's dinner was freaking 丰富 and filling! Cost abt 70 sing dollars and it consisted of a starter, soup, bread buns, main dish, dessert and 2 drinks. whoa! super filling but the food was nice! if not for the fact that i m dining with my dad's colleagues, i would have taken photos of all the dishes i ate today. well, i've always had the habit of doing it; moreover the setting of the dishes were so pretty! just like fine dining but not SO posh lah. anw, charge to dad's company de! heh..

took some photos today during the journey to Splendor Hotel. just some 路牌 and other interesting stuff i see along the way. saw some geographical landforms too! i think its cliffs and i cant really remember what. next entry! next entry i'll get the photos here!

tmr going Sun Moon Lake in Nantou. should be seeing many natural landscapes and resevoirs. actually wanted to go Alishan de, but dad's colleagues say that it's difficult to get there. and i thought granny might not be able to take it. so nvm lor.. but if we're there, definitely we'll get a nice view of the sunrise (if we can be that early! haha..the odds of that happening). anw..tata till tmr!

爱情

深刻的愛,讓人不爭氣,
願意主動用妥協來交換感情生活的風和日麗。
因為懂得不爭氣,所以也漸漸學會不為小事生氣。

雨過天青,沒有烏煙瘴氣容身的餘地。
 
相愛,不爭氣,也不生氣。
這種境界很高,妥協是其中一把天梯。
必須先願意放下身段、彎下腰,才能夠爬得上去。
一旦爬上妥協的天梯,就會看見寬廣的世界,
 
把雞毛蒜皮的小事都丟在腳下、埋進土裡,
當作幸福的肥料,滋養兩個人成長所需。
在愛情中主動妥協,並不是逼自己認輸,
而是用積極的決心,贏回彼此的信任。
妥協,也是一門很難學會的藝術,要靠雙方一起學習。
雖然其中一方退了一步海闊天空,但另一方也不能得寸進尺。
否則,就是「軟土深掘」,只會讓彼此在愛情的困境中愈陷愈深。
 
愛,沒有對錯。如果還想在一起,
當對方向你低頭的時候,記得伸出你的手,給他一個深情的擁抱。

Monday the thirteenth!

Today is OP day! wahaha..happy coz it marks the end of the agonizing 9 months! like 怀胎 like that.. actually quite similar. All the burning-the-midnight-oil-doing-drafts days, chasing and being chased for work days, meeting-with-pw-mates days and OP-rehearsal-with mrs yim days are gone for good! Actually i didnt enjoy a bit of this at all until the OP rehearsals. Coz it was the time where we were more bonded and co-operative, for meetings and such. It was more bearable now than before, although i cant say it's enjoyable. And despite the long wait for every other groups to finish presenting, it was a more bearable period of time. Maybe it was something that i enjoy doing more and i have more control over. As compared to writing and writing and editing drafts of PI, GPP, WR, EoM and I&Rs, i think public speaking isn't that tough for me.

Hmm..today i think i did rather well for OP. Think it was much better than all my other rehearsals.. therefore im rather elated today! Well, at least it is finally over. i can now breathe a little more and i think the same goes for the teachers. :)) Saw some morning shift students taking photos with a teacher outside audi, after their OP i presume, haha.. now they really have the mood to do so. That's how torturous OP and promos are. Well, side track a little. I actually envy that group of students coz they can be on friendly terms with their teacher, like having lunch together. How cool! Not that i want to be THAT close to teachers, but i thought it would be nice if we can be on friendlier terms with teachers. It really makes school and learning more fun. Rather than having to speak to the teacher in a formal tone. It's quite tiring at times u know.. and often im not myself when i speak like that.

Ok, anyway..something added to my excitement today! i bought QTWW (Qing Tian Wa Wa)! muahaha! bought 3 of them-2 pink and 1 blue one. ke ai! all of them had their faces nicely sewn, not like the one my sis bought. One of the eyes' string came loose.. poor QTWW! Anw, im gonna give them away to ppl..so that everyday would be a sunny day (Qing Tian!).










A song on QTWW!
天空下起雨啦 太陽老先生又再度蛀牙
留下 一大片棉花糖 棉花糖 他溶化 他溶化
最後一線希望 用衛生紙揉出晴天娃娃
為他 畫上笑的嘴巴 把雨滴 趕走吧 趕走吧

窗外整排的晴天娃娃 沒有一個乖乖的聽話
圍起圈圈躲在屋簷下 講晴天娃娃話 
好像有什麼計畫 大雨大與他愈下愈大 
娃娃們突然一起撐傘 動作一致的非常狡猾
為他畫的嘴巴 早知道就畫上叉叉

宫!

Haha.. this is the drama that i've been watching for the past few weeks. Not too bad i must say, but not fantastic. Like my sis said, the two male leads dont really have much facial expression. But nevertheless i still like watching it. muahaha..and kim jeong hoon's quite cute. haha, i seldom say guys are cute so..he's really cute! but sometimes i think his lipstick is a way bit too red/pink thus making him look like a girl. muahaha.. but nvm, still cute. :)

As usual, more pics!

宫~野蛮王妃!

Huhhh!! Is this their kid?! OMG! don't want......!

This pic! One of my fave pictures! i really really like these bears! And the fact
that only Lu and Caijing are in the pic! THIS is picture perfect! :))

heee! Bears again! nice!


Cartoon vs. Real people.. hmmm?

i just felt like typing something here though my hands hurt a hell lot. Henceforth there is no title coz i really have no idea what title to give this post. Too random i suppose. And just in case you are wondering my my hands hurt so much, it's because i went cycling 2 days ago. maybe it was the gripping part. Though didnt really cycled, i was learning. And after 2 hours and spending 5 bucks, i still havent mastered cycling!!! OMG! i think i'll never cycle ever in my life. i learnt 3 times already can??! haiz..how? maybe i shall try again a long time later when im not so jue wang with myself. hee.. and definitely not any time soon coz my legs a filled with bruises. 1 large one on my left calf, 3 cute 20cent-coin-sized ones on my right knee and i medium-sized ones on the back of my ankle. i better get them to disappear b4 my OP day, or the teachers may think im being abused. Oh! or maybe i get some sympathy points! wahaha... i think im thinking too much. : S anyway i just have to antagonise myself by rubbing all of my bruises b4 i sleep. i seriously hate the feeling of being in constant pain for about 10 minutes.

Anyway, many things have been going through my mind these days. Some needing me to make decisions which im always procrastinating against. It's times like this that i realise, when i want something, i dont seem to be doing the neccesary to get it. It's like if i'd just open my mouth to ask, that thing that i wanted to achieve would already be in my grasp. Another thing would be signing up to be an OGL. Actually, seriously if i didnt need to miss lessons, i'd really jump at the chance. i mean, it's quite fun and all. And the fact that im leading the freshies into a new environment, of course it's nice being a facilitator to them. Another perk would be a secret. And of course, this is an addition to my CIP hours as well as the testimonial part. However in the end, i've successfully rid the thought of being an OGL. i still think my academic results ain't that fantastic, not fantastic enough to miss a week of lessons. Phew! Though im having some regrets here, i think i've made a wise choice. Even Shu Yi who scored freaking good results didnt want to join bcoz of the fact that we have to miss lessons, i think i'd better follow suit. If u're wondering how good is freaking good, i'd say she only has one C. And she doesnt have anything lower than that. But anyway, something to comfort myself is that i've been an OGF and that is equivalent to being an OGL. And i didnt have to miss lessons! hee..oh well. At least i've experienced that and now i should concentrate on my studies.

Yes, so tmr i'd have to bury my head into the lappie and edit the stupid I&R which is part of the useless and time-wasting PW. well... 4 more days!!! and it'll all be over! A year of agony and conflicts will all come to a close i guess. What's left would be my grown-up soul and a pair of 'sharper' eyes. To see through fake people i mean. And of course finally realising what kind of people exist around me. Okay, im super tired and im going to end here after 28236575 times of dozing off.
