Another new day begins with a morning wake up call from Michelle. The weather in Kao Xiong is pretty much like Singapore's. With the blue sky shrouded in a thin misty layer of dust and dirt. I don't really feel like sleeping or what so ever. Leaving for Fo Guang Shan soon I guess. Maybe later la. Seeing too many Chinese around me makes me feel really weird. I need more variety in skin colour.

Too bad we will be missing the campaigning that Ah bian will be heading today in Taipei. Shucks, should take a train and rush to catch this in action!

Yay, sixth day in Taiwan already.

Saw a lot of new things and I was kindly late this morning. Was terribly embarrassed about it. Yikes.

Pan Lao Shi just mentioned that we are now backed to the civilised world because we can use the internet now. Heh heh heh. Had very little chance to do other stuff besides sight seeing and visiting schools.

But overall, I have to say that the whole trip is very enjoyable. Get to really relax and forget about stuff in Singapore.

Dread the feeling of having to go back and write reports about this trip.

PS: Just left TaiZhong today and heard that an earthquake occured there. I regret not being present to experience it man.

I should just prevent myself from further slipping into slack mode. Anyway, I am leaving next week. Will just throw everything down before I come back to face reality.

I am absolutely infatuated with Beethoven's Moonlight Sonata. Love it love it love it.

If I had to wake up to find that there's nothing more for me to hold on to, I would rather remain forever- in deep slumber sleep.

If I'm allowed to live life twice, I will like for time to turn back.

Even if no one remembers it anymore, but I do.

More and more people are adopting "open space" concepts. Shops having really low walls and more glass panes. Schools being more spacious and additional exits. If you have been in my house, you will realise that my windows are very wide, much wider than normal ones.

Yet as it becomes more "open", don't you realise that there are more doors and locks around? Whilst the number of exits avaliable increases, the school management team in the name of security, added more padlocks and barriers to prevent people from entering the school compound. Doors simply became more secure, fixed with security alarms.

Humans are forever so insecure about themselves.

Life is such a coincidence.

Met this guy on the bus when I went to school.

3 hours later, on the same bus, I boarded it and I met the same person again.

Perhaps, everything is just some sort of a coincidence.

it is the uncertainties that you face in life that makes it interesting.

Sometimes, I just know that for certain things I should not have done it a certain way. You just know that it is the wrong way to do things. However, it gets so tempting and alluring to try walking this road that everyone says it is not correct to. I tend to direct myself towards that direction and end up all lost in the middle of nowhere. I wonder why do I have to do that to myself. Prolly, I just don't like to walk the road that everybody else walks.
