on the way to osaka, kansai international. thought i like to say hi before heading into br 2132, eva airline in 10 minutes. currently in taoyuan international airport, taipei.
lets see if there is internet and tokyo bananas there.

departo for nihon.
so, its day 2 in taipei. tomorrow i am heading off to japan for 5 days. chances of me blogging there? depends really. on whether the hotel has wireless ya.
anyway, today, i woke up early had mee sua for breakfast and headed to the local theatre to catch lust caution. its more expensive here by just a bit, you can hear the opposite screens movie sometimes, but its interesting ya.
for me… lust caution was more of a tragic love story rather then a ww2 spy story. after being in cs for 1 sem, my mind turned immediately to national cinema when the plot was unrevelling, but it seems thats not the case. in my opinion, its how love and hate, loyalty and betrayal all are intrinsically connected. i won’t spoil it for you, but tis true in some aspects. when u are in love, you forget everything, let your guard down. everyone knows whats happening but you. but i wouldn’t know.
in taipei, they enjoy steamboat a lot. think of seoul garden sans the hotplate. the meat is put in the water as well. the trains are efficent too, if not better than the mrt in singapore. and guess what, they have dunkin donuts here. haha.
not much has changed in the past year. the 24 hr spectacle shop (don’t ask me why) has finally closed down. a few new shops have springed up.
i will leave you now with the choice pictures. acutally, not choice. they are just the only pictures i took. with my handphone.
pay attention to even the smallest details.
hey guys. i am in taipei now. its 3am now and i have a headache trying to figure out what is going on with my stars. so i will leave u with a few shots of taipei.
by the way, blogger is in chinese, google is in chinese and its crazy. the traffic doesn’t care about you and will try to ram you down. the air smoky, the temperature 14 degrees and the people uncouth. but i guess, there is always shilin.
a house party, the after party, 12 hours to flight.
the cake lined my stomach, the brain is tired, the flight is waiting.
its 430 in the morning.
thanks to pamy for the very nice buffet and hosting us.
its fun dancing with cs peeps. mambo was packed. random people talked to me. woo. i am still partially high.
the sq flight beckons now. now to taipei. dear friends, i offer my services to package goods. so don’t miss this opportunity of a lifetime.
(p.s: i may be doing a podcast in taiwan: stay tuned)
(p.p.s: by the way, that was your last chance to see me live with blond hair. hope the memories last)

oh mickey what a pity, can’t you understand?
was it 8 years ago i watched a football match then slipped on a carpet and fractured my toe.
that seemed like ages ago.
it seemed ages ago too that i ran and ran and ran. but i don’t know why.
in humankind, a war is fought with an ideology in mind. but eventually, that ideology is lost to the over riding greed of man.
similiarly, in our own personal struggles, we start with a sense of purpose. but as we fight on and on, we lose sight of what we intially fought for. and then we become lost.
i have lost myself a long time ago.

to be or not to be: not a question, but an open ended riddle.
(hum to a tune of your own)
(p.s: think punk rock)
working title (i think i will call it 13 weeks though)
————
when we begun
we were told it was a mistake
when we begun
it was all so strange to us
they said we were different
they said it was a shame
they said i was wasting my life
they said, they said, they said
but we are here
lets make it count
for better or worse
lets prove them wrong
but we are here
lets show our resolve
for better or worse
lets prove them wrong……….
(chorus)
–
13 weeks have passed my way
but here i am still standing strong
them naysayers we cast away
and now lets show them what we can do
13 weeks have passed my way
but here i am still standing strong
never thought i would have last
and now lets show them what we can do
–
and so we begun
it wasn’t easy we thought
and through the time
it got harder and harder
they said we wouldn’t last the distance
they said it a shame
they said we wouldn’t make it
they said, they said, they said
but we are here
let them know
for better or worse
lets prove them wrong
but we are here
let them hear our voice
for better or worse
lets prove them wrong……….
(chorus)
(bridge)
it’s not so complicated,
its just the path i chose
so just let me do what i want to do.
(chorus X2)

must be the sugar i am eating.
sometimes, destiny does not want you to blog.
i had a super long post here, but i entered it into the wrong field.
now i am pissed.
–
sometimes, sometimes is not enough.
this was supposed to be an emo post, but i have decided to serve emo posts after my exams, so i dun cut myself during the exams and spill blood over my exam booklet.
so there.
so for this post, i will serve up happy stuff.
like how episode 9 of heroes was incredibly good.
like how i played an intense 2 hour dota game yesterday that we fought back from our world tree having 63 hp.
and thats my happy moment, i am not a very happy guy you know.
but i have my moments.
cheerio.

res ipsa loquitur.
after 3 papers, the review so so. i will not ace the papers. but i should not fail either. just a little bit disappointed with myself in general. i wonder if i can hit my desired goal.
3 more to go.
will you defeat them, your demons, and all the non believers, the plans that they have made?

and everyone is watching. and waiting.
this is for yesterday.
