Hong Kong

[SONG] chris brown ft. mario smitty - tell me


Got back from HK yesterday afternoon.

The trip was..uh..alright?

Let's just say it wasn't the best and it wasn't what i was expecting.

Let's see..

the first day was already a tragedy. After landing, i had to wait for my dad at the airport for around 3-4hrs. After getting to the hotel, which was just horrible, we headed out to shop. So, my dad, being more of a shopping freak then me, headed to all his favorite shops. Meaning, i was just tagging a long the whole night. Luckily i got to skim away a bit and bought myself a bottle of cologne.

Day 2, we headed to Shenzhen, which i thought was gonna be a day trip, but was i wrong. After he met his clients and all, we took a train to Guangzhou. Oh man was i ever pissed! i wanted to get back to HK asap!

However, Guangzhou wasn't as bad as i thought because i got to experience my first mid-autumn festival celebration. After dinner and all, we headed shopping and again..i bought nothing.

Day 3, headed back to HK. Got back around 2:30pm and i went to have a late lunch with Inasa, whom i met in Singapore during my attachment at Raffles Hotel. Lunch was good, the talk was fun. Overall, i was just happy to be back in HK.

After that, i met up with my dad again and we headed down to Causeway Bay. I got to meet up with Vivian!!! oh man, was i so happy to see her! it's been like 3 yrs since i saw her and it was just wonderful. We went to have dinner at a thai restaurant and we talked and talked! it was amazing!

After dinner, we separated from my dad and went shopping. I finally got to buy something. After everything, we went back to Kowloon and i left my dad at the hotel to go to Temple street (which is like a night market) i didn't have much time, about 15min, to go shopping cuz a lot of the stands were closing up.

Day 4, woke up dirt early to get to the airport and hung around for about 3hrs before my flight left.

Overall, the trip was a bit boring and super sucky cuz i was with my dad. I had to sneak around to go for quick smokes and stuff. On top of that, my dad promised to get me a Nintendo DS or a PSP and a China made cell phone that can watch TV, but because of time constraints and all the time he was shopping, i didn't get the opportunity to go look around.

The highlight of the whole trip was...

Vivian

I've always treated her like the sister i never had. It was just great to see how well she's doing and how much she has grown since we first met. the whole 5 hrs or so we were together was just amazing! When i get the pix from her, i'll upload them.

That was pretty much my whole trip, which felt super short by the way!

For now, peace y'all!

what are my birthday wishes?

hm..besides the obvious materialistic objects such as:

money
dress shirts
cologne
justin lo concert dvds
janice wei lan dvs (if any lol)
scented deodorant ie. armani black code etc.
clothes
girlfriend?
losing weight (haha which is nearly impossible might i add)

*if anyone is planning to get anything, it's okay, i'm not asking for anything from you guys...the presence of you guys around me is more than enough*

HOWEVER HOWEVER HOWEVER...

the real thing i want this year, something no one can give me, is to be back home in toronto with my friends! getting crunked at some club and passing out, would defiantly bring back a lot of friggin wicked memories!

I wish i could be with, Maggie, Ken, Stella, Sam, Alan, Andy, Vivian, Jazzy, Richard, Chi, Duncan, Min, Jacky, Richard Y., and the rest of the crew (way too many to name) to live up this day.

Anyhoo, thx for all the b-day wishes, facebook posts and friendster testimonials from everyone!

It means a lot that you guys remembered and took the effort to wish me.

from the bottom of my heart....I THANK YOU!!!

Richie!

desperate?

[song] Winsu - Stunned

This post may seem like i'm desperate, so think what you think, but deep in my heart it's a journey, a mission.

It's been a long time since i've had the opportunity to share my thoughts, my love, my heart and my soul with someone. Everyday is a new day, hoping to search for the perfect one to hold a decent conversation with, share my feelings and thoughts, hold close within my arms and treasure the times.

I always talk a lot about sex and girls but my real friends will know that, it's just talk. I may per sway myself as some perverted jackass wannabe by the way i talk, but in the down-lo, i'm the complete opposite. I guess it's in my culture to be open-minded and my past friends that have molded me to who i am today. I'm glad i am the way i am. It defines me as someone unique and someone that is forthcoming.

Desperate am i?

No, to me, it's a search to finding someone special. Desperate may mean a lot of things, but in this context, desperate means trying to get laid as many times as possible before death. alright?

Think what you may. When it comes down to it, i'm just a simple guy trying to find that soul mate. I'm looking for someone that i can cherish and add joy into my life and vice-versa. It's been a hell of a long time, but it seems like the way i'm going now, it's gonna be quite awhile before any miracles happen. Desperation it may seem, but in reality, it's a mission to seek a greater height. It's a mission to a whole new world of humanity.

It's not a girlfriend that i seek, it's a partner for life. Girls can come and go, seriously, but that 1 special person to make you happy for the rest of your life, now that's a once and a lifetime opportunity.

I'm not rich, handsome or fit. I know! I know i have much more faults than many. However, I know i may not be the best candidate for any deserving girl, but i know deep within me, if they're worth ever second, i can defiantly try to be that guy.

All i can promise is to give that special someone something they may not be able to get from anybody else.

so what is it i'm looking for?

someone that...

- can hold a smart/intellectual conversation
- has brains and isn't always blur and unconscious
- is willing to spend the time and put in the effort
- has a sweet smile
- i can share the sunset/sunrise with
- isn't afraid to show her feelings
- is outgoing and can keep up with my craziness

i think that's about it. looks aren't the most important but an added bonus.

this topic may have hit me because of my upcoming birthday, wishing to find someone special to share it with. If i was able to have 2 wishes this year, it would be to hold someone special in my arms or to have my friends from canada right next to me!

I miss the conversations i use to hold with some of my dearest friends in canada (ie. stella, maggie, wanda and ken) It was these people that brought a different scope on life and gave me something that not everyone is capable of. It is these people that have made a mass impact on me. I miss them! and i wish them all the best!

Double Dragon!

Double Dragon!!

OH MY FUCKING GOD!!!



Low budget, old skool style but it's still so GOOD!

I just burned a copy and after that...i was glued in front of the television.

when i watched this i laughed! with the advancements in technology and computer graphics, this movie looks super cheap! The plot wasn't the greatest, the acting was alright, the fighting sucked but i STILL HAD A GREAT TIME WATCHING IT!!

it must be because i grew up during this era and i use to love playing the video game. If you were to compare this movie to say, transformers or spiderman, you'd be so shocked on how movies use to look like and how they are now.

I'm so glad movies turn out the way they do now, but i guess, going back to the more simple days once and awhile would be good too.

i'm out..it's 3:30am and i need to get up in 4 hrs =)

peace!

Spider Lilies

[SONG] Mario - This is for

Just finished watching a movie called 'Spider Lilies'

It's a Taiwanese production, but i happened to have it in Cantonese.

This is a great film. I find the way it was directed and scripted quite unique. The way they portray tattoos in this movie, really bring a new insight on body art to my perception. Though the subjects are about homosexuality, the way they put the 2 actresses together, was just great.

There was a lot of controversy about this film when it came out. I guess it's the mindset behind the typical asians. However, many people disliked the film, not because of the content, but because of the story. I beg to differ. If you look at the movie at a more artistic point of view and some strong beliefs, then i am quite positive that everyone will enjoy this movie.

I was more shocked to see Isabella Leung in this movie. She's one of my favorite actresses from the HK movie industry. i would say she added a bit of spice to my interest when i watched the movie. Not forgetting the obviously cute Rainie Yang, which is one of my favorites in the Taiwan Industry as well.

You may think that my opinions to this movie is a bit biased because 2 of my favorites are starring in it. In this instance, i'll leave you with this...Just watch it if you don't believe me, nuff said!

here is a movie syn ops...

Lycoris aurea: The golden flower is native to the northeastern coast of Taiwan. Local people call it the spider lily. Japanese legend has it that spider lilies line the path to hell, poisoning the memories of all who smell their scent, forming a bridge between the living and the dead.

Tattoo artist Takeko keeps a framed design of the spider lily flower on the wall of her parlor. The design was literally cut from the flesh of her father, after he was crushed to death in an earthquake. The image of the spider lily tattoo is the last cohesive memory of Takeko's traumatized brother, Ching, who is no longer able to recognize anyone, including his sister. Takeko has the same tattoo of the poisonous flower on her body in the hope of helping Ching remember and bridging the gap between them.

Webcam girl Jade visits Takeko's tattoo parlor, looking for sexy decoration to excite her clientele. Entranced by the tattoo of the spider lily on the wall, Jade gives Takeko her business card and invites her to visit her on her website where she professes her love for the tattoo artist. Finally, Jade asks Takeko to give her the same spider lily tattoo to bring her closer to the object of her desire.

Some pix for you to indulge in!

Finally, pix time!

I'm so sorry for the delay guys.

I've been so caught up with my recent project submissions and tests. However, you should be glad to hear that, i've finished 2 projects and all our required tests. So i have 2 more projects to complete and in 2 weeks or so, it's exam time..!

Alittle update, i haven't been really sleeping for the past 4 days. It was mostly due to doing last minute project stuff. But there were some times that it was all on me, for example, going to eunice's place to hang out all night. haha..it was fun and relaxing, so no regrets!

-

Back to Bintan. The trip was great. The villa was amazing, the buggy was a great bonus and the company was fantastic. I just wished we had more time. The activities and stuff were much more better than Nirwana (which is where i went the lat time). The best thing is that, the villa is quite facilitated so we didn't have to worry much. We spent our days playing ping pong, riding go-karts, taking photos, massages etc.

I HOPE to go back to Bintan again soon..but seriously speaking, who goes to Bintan 3 times a year? haha I guess i just like it alot cuz it's a quick get-a-way from the city and it isn't THAT expensive, if you source for the right package and choose the right period to go.

I spent about the same on this trip as the last, which was about 400+ but it isn't that expensive if you compare it to say, Bali or Phuket, though the destinations are better. Oh well, i was pretty satisfied, so whatever.......

-

Anyhoo..i gotta get some sleep quick time. It's 4am and i've just finished my video show for my presentation tmr..i'm only gonna get about 3 hrs of sleep or so..i'm totally screwed for tmr!

ENJOY some pix from Bintan, til the next update! peace y'all!
