Yah. Yah. I can hear people shouting "Closet Ah-beng" already. hahaha

OT for the liver
1 bottle of Coors Light, 1 Vodka Cranberry and 2 Vodka Lime = OT for my liver haha...
I think that's the largest amount of alchohol I've consumed in one night zZzZz... Mix beer and liquor somemore -_-'''
But my classmate's birthday party wasn't too bad haha... our teacher/prof was there drinking with us and partying with them (*insert gasps and applause*)
I wonder if we can find such professors/lecturers in NUS... Maybe in Business School or FASS? Or am I just stereotyping (which I have been taught not to) haha...
Need to go run again and be healthy wahaha...
It's been proven. I can't bear to imagine/see myself dancing/moving around to party music haha... Somehow it's more of a "listening" thing to me...
Like how some clubbers can't accept trance/electronic dance music, I find myself actually quite receptive towards it haha...maybe because I listen to the music more than I try to find a way to dance to it.
Next pub/music cafe/chill-out bar please. Uncle over here is non-clubber. Kam Sia.

嘴巴賤。。。哈哈哈。。。
Yes folks... you got that right and you heard me right...... somehow I think I got an acid-laced tongue zZzZz... that goes out of control once in a while...
I think I need to slow down and take a deep breath before I say or do anything haha... I find myself saying or thinking of sacarstic things to say or reply to others wahaha... Sometimes I don't even need to think and the words just come out from my mouth like a reflex action haha...
I've tried controlling it haha...but once in a while... you just let your mouth slip once in a while you know...
Yeah if 包小松 or 包小柏 ever need help, I think they can come look for me zZzZz...
I need to pray for guidance haha...... if not this mouth of mine might get me into trouble in the future wahaha...
I was watching some Japanese variety show and I realised, indeed... kids sometimes say the darndest/hurtful stuff to one another... but at least they blurt it out and somehow seem to forget all about it later... (at least most of the time lah... I don't know about kids nowadays... Some of them seem to have skip the "young and innocent" phase)
Adults? They just think about saying such stuff in their minds and try their best to "gek" and control in order to not say it out...... It's always at the back of their heads... then they PR and act all smiley... Sibei sian... To think that I actually might want to work in a PR firm when I graduate...
Does everyone in the PR industry also behave like that? I hope not zZzZz...
So yeah, I appreciate straightforwardness once in a while haha...

No pictures = Words
Again... another weekend of chiong-ing papers and projects... Life will be pretty dull... until the end of the exams and when the Japan trip comes...
So, presenting more random words to bore us all... wahaha
How to know when you've stayed in Taipei for a loooong time:
1) When you start recognising the part-time staff who work at the nearby 7-11 convenience stall
(includes both day and night shifts)
2) When the cleaning auntie starts striking up a conversation with you... while the both of you
are doing laundry.
3) When you run out of pamphlets to collect (of the places to visit), and you start collecting beer
bottles (to see what kind of beer you can find here)
4) When you realised that you've visited all the night markets in Taipei
(I can hear the whistles and 噓聲/boos hahaha... but seriously... I've checked already... really
all the listed night markets I walk finish liao)
5) When you start lamenting that there's nothing much left to do in Taipei, and the other parts of
Taiwan seem more interesting...
More random stuff to come~

Good or bad?
好人難當，壞人好像比較容易當。That was my MSN nick a few weeks ago haha... Here's how I came up with that nick.
If a person is deemed good, nice and (insert postive adjective here) by others, he or she would must be portraying a positive image.
How can one improve on this positive image? Well... I don't think you can hahaha...how to be "good-er/better"? Just be yourself and be nice. The status-quo is just fine... no issues with that.
How about a "bad" person then? Bad behaviour, bad manners and (insert negative adjective here). Negative image, BUT if you think carefully, the bad guy has a chance of turning into a "good" guy, right? That's what they always portray in the movies... at least in those mainstream movies
Good guy stays a good guy, but bad guy has a chance of becoming a good guy. In this case I think the latter would definitely be more interesting. If you look at the mass media and start to think, can you tell me how many times have we seen the story of "Bad guy turns over a new leaf" or a story that is somewhere along that line?
Not to mention that sometimes one can be called "blur", "傻" or "overly nice" hahaha...... Seriously, I think people sometimes take nice people for granted... to the point where they start to make use of them or treat them like dumb people.
And so the saying goes: 男人不坏，女人不愛。So does this saying really hold truth?
好人難當，壞人好像比較容易當。你想做坏人，還是做好人？
Beats me.

Monkeys @ the zoo
Monkeys at the zoo. Full of expressions haha... Good for photographers... Good models indeed wahaha...
Heck, I like them so much that I'm posting their pictures seperately from the other batch of zoo pictures... Of course having a 70-300 mm lense helps as well haha...
Looks like he's/she's missing home or what...
Shocking!
Wary
Looks like some of us when we're asleep haha...
What kind of an expression is that?
Family potrait. Dad, Mum and Junior.
No prizes for correctly guessing who's in command here haha... Apologies for the distracting "extra" monkey head at the bottom left corner
You ain't goin anywhere~

Running under the moonlight
Has been ages since I last ran in the night... If I can remember correctly, the last time I ran in the night was during last semester, when I was still staying at Kuok Foundation House wahaha...
Feeling pretty good~ The weather was pretty cooling.
在月光下奔馳，有一種很 relaxed 的感覺。
不知不覺中，發現到自己的腳步越來越快 哇哈哈
一個字。爽~
Although I almost ended up with a stitch and pain at the appendix area...
Wah lau... both sides also kenna... -_-'''

We are going to the zoo zoo zoo...
Went to the Taipei Zoo on Sunday. Damn crowded sia... but at least got the party-like atmosphere haha... Haven't been to the zoo for a long time... maybe it's because of the Singapore Zoo's ticket pricing and location LOL.
You can take a direct MRT/LRT ride to the Taipei Zoo haha... and the entrance fee for students is only 30 NTD (less than SGD 2 bucks). Most probably adults have to pay close to 100 NTD? which is still almost 4 times lesser than what we pay in Singapore.
Hot day. Lazy pig.
Closest front shot of elephants that I could get. A lot of animals were turning their backsides on us wahahaha......
Standard zoo must-have
Giraffes
Zebras. Twins? Nah... No two zebras will have the same stripe patterns haha...
Camel snack
Lynx? I don't know what you call this...
Peacock. On a tree.
I remember seeing this bird in Japanese-related stuff haha...
Looks like a turkey that has a long neck, but it's not.
Macaw
Toucan. Nice blue eyes and orange beak. Photographer's favourite.
The weather was hot. So were the turtles. No offence lol.
Bison
Red Panda
Beaver
Lemur
Another type of lemur munching on corn
Lemur family portrait haha... They can't keep still...

Fragile
作詞:持田香織

いつもそう 単純で クダラナイことがきっかけで
傷つけてしまうよね 途切れてく会話 虚しいよ
言葉が不器用すぎて 邪魔ばかりする
好きなのに伝わらない こんな想い 切なくて
「愛しい」だなんて 言い慣れてないケド
今なら言えるよ 君のために
となりで笑っていてくれるのならば
これ以上 他に何も要らないよ
出逢えたことから 全ては始まった
傷つけあう日もあるけれども
「いっしょにいたい」と そう思えることが
まだ知らない明日へと つながってゆくよ
精一杯 背伸びして 平然を装っていたけど
余裕などないくせに また 笑顔つくってしまった
会えない夜はきまって 淋しさ おそう
好きだから不安になる こんな想い 悲しくて
「守ってあげる」と あの時言ったこと
ためらう気持ちも 嘘じゃないよ
それでも 信じてゆこうとする想い
コワレテしまわぬように 抱きしめていたい
こんなにこんなに 君を好きになって
本当に本当に ウレシイから
たとえば この先くじけてしまっても
にぎりしめたその手を もう離さない
出逢えたことから 全ては始まった
傷つけあう日もあるけれども
「いっしょにいたい」と そう思えることが
まだ知らない明日へと つながってゆくよ
I don't know the meanings to this song haha... but I like the melody wahaha...
Actually that's how I've been listening to Japanese songs all these while wahaha...

基隆 - Keelung
Went to see fireflies at Keelung two weekends ago and visted the 基隆廟口 night market. No pictures of fireflies haha...the place was too dark for the camera to capture anything haha...
Huge octopus tentacles on sale
Eating crabs at the night market
Lecture theatre where a briefing was given before we went to see the fireflies

Deafening Silence
Yoyoyo... Project deadlines are drawing closer... so we don't have much time to travel around anymore wahaha... which explains the lack of pictures... but I'm trying to make it a point to write random stuff everyday hahaha...
Ok let's move on to the random topic of the day: Silence... (non-emo dun worry wahaha)
Anyway I don't really know what's with the use of the word "emo" haha... either the word is really over-rated...or I'm becoming an old uncle zzz...
If you don't get it, it's ok haha... like-a-arty-farty stuff sia~
Silence, a powerful weapon.
Implicitly offensive and explicitly defensive.
"Cold" wars between people or a denial of things.
No wonder they say "silence is deafening".
It's like a WMD (weapon of mass destruction)... hahaha...

Freak weather
The weather in Taipei is weird... it can be raining the whole of one week, and then it can be sunny for the next week.
人的心情也如台北的天氣一樣，時冷時熱。真的不懂是在搞什麽。

Non-sequitur Part 2 (Songs)
All those who don't know what non-sequitur mean can go look it up in Wikipedia haha......
Non-sequitur
You know how they say you shouldn't leave your laptop battery attached to the laptop when you're using A/C power? Because it will degenerate the quality and lifespan of the battery?
Hmm...Somehow I'm beginning to feel like the battery wahaha......Damn sian~
Machiam gonna explode soon... Over-charged...
What the heck sia...... This doesn't sound or feel right......

我猜我猜我猜猜猜 Live Recording
Went to watcht the "Live" recording of 我猜我猜我猜猜猜 (popular Taiwanese variety show that has been running for almost 10 years haha). The recording studio was not as big as I had thought it would be...ah......the wonders of good lighting wahaha......
I think the episode has already been shown in Taiwan last weekend (03/05/2008)... see if Singapore screen already a not.
Controls for the lighting... Pro~
Chaos behind the scenes haha......
Filiming equipment. A grand total of 5-6 cameras were filming at the same time...but somehow they've managed to work out a standard set of "framing sequences" to use for the show, so editing is almost instantaenous in the sense that the producer will decide which camera's footage will be used.
星光三班...Taken while they were recording haha...
Students from a baking school in Malaysia haha... What a coincidence.
Everybody's excited to watch their favourite variety show being filmed live in front of them.
Recognise her? 真的假不了 contestant 1.
真的假不了 contestant 2.
阿米老師's keyboard. The guy that creates all the sound effects that my mum dislikes wahaha... but his keyboard/piano skills pro one. His co-ordination with Jacky Wu also lagi best.
Floor Manager talking to contestants for 人不可貌相. Even though in the end you can really judge most by their looks... They were looking for attractive-looking tertiary girls...

They don't call him "Local King" for nothing haha... True professionalism. Although his off-screen and on-screen antics are about the same haha... he can 進入狀況 damn quickly once the cameras roll.
