Hello Hanoi!

It's more peaceful and relaxing in Hanoi....

Spacious hotel....

See the difference in our clothings between Ho Chi Minh and Hanoi... there's a diff of at least 12-15 degrees celsius.. it's quite chilly in Hanoi..

Halong Bay, a UNESCO World Heritage site which features thousands of limestone karsts and isles in various sizes and shapes. Worth visiting...fresh air with beautiful scenery...

There was a legend saying that Halong Bay (下龙湾) was the place where dragon descended from heaven...thus Vietnamese believe that they are the descendants of Dragon... 龙的传人...

Spectacular limestones in the caves....

The Kissing Rock - icon of Halong Bay (looks like a fish with a hole in the middle)

The first university in Vietnam has turned into a Confucius Temple, which many Vietnamese still pray to, and hope that Confucius will bless them and their kids with wisdom.

Vietnamese language sounds like Chinese, esp Cantonese....

The memorial hall of Ho Chi Minh, the Vietnamese Communist leader.

Bye Vietnam! My next dream destination shall be Japan...hehe...

Hello Vietnam!

I studied Basic Conversational Vietnamese during my NUS days which was at least 10 yrs ago...I can only remember "Chi Que Kong? (How are you?)" and "Toi La.... (I am...)". haha.. I had wanted to visit this country to feel its culture...finally had the chance in Jan 09 to travel to Ho Chi Minh (Saigon) & Hanoi (capital of Vietnam)...

Experiencing the life of Vietnamese on a sampan...rather shaky... wearing their iconic bamboo hat 斗笠 did help to protect against the sunlight..

World No. 1 in the number of Motorbikes... causing noise & air pollution in the urban areas...

Most of the pple there are Buddhists... and worshippers of GuanYin

Costumes - 'ao dai' worn by Child Performers in a village

Went to an ancient battlesite where we tried shooting....using real bullets...

I was so so shocked by the loud explosive sound when i fired...can feel the ground shaking too...what an experience...

没时间

没时间，我没时间……哈哈！ 一个多月没有更新部落格了，哎呀！别再找藉口了。。需要再找回当时写blog的兴奋！ 待续。。。。。

Happy Moo Moo Year!

哇！一转眼，又是新的一年了！已经一个多月没有post blog 了。。。上个月从台湾会来后，几乎每晚都追看《小娘惹》，加上从1月6日开始每逢星期二上“中文流行歌词”创作班，真的“忙到”忘了部落格。

今天是初七，人日，在此祝愿所有的朋友能有个快快乐乐的牛年，让幸福、健康、喜悦和圆满每天都‘cow’　近你！ 希望每个人都能‘牛’转乾坤！

疯狂的台北之夜~ 演唱会篇

如果不是为了这场演唱会，我应该不会到台北旅游。谢谢你刺激了台湾经济！


一起疯狂· 一起分享· 一起追忆


每次出国看演唱会都有‘特制的服装’，这次的我最喜欢！因为会闪闪发亮!

不少跟aaron交情不错的艺人如周杰伦、黄子佼、罗志祥都纷纷送上花篮祝贺！

场内的气氛非常high，跟本地的情况截然不同！

演唱会前一直在猜想你会唱哪些国语歌，总算没有令我太失望，《查无此人》、《谁会记得我》、《等我回来》等都唱得丝丝入扣，只是如果再加上其他更旧的歌如《beautiful girl》、《情非得以离开你》、《梦难留》、《午夜的吻别》，那就更有惊喜了！

创下Guiness World Record 的450度旋转舞台，超炫的！为了你，门票也破了台湾演唱会门票的最高纪录！

不求与人相比，只求超越自己！

重温演唱会的经典画面.....

台湾悠游之旅~启程篇

That was 15 years ago when I first visited Taiwan, oh my, it's double of my age! This country of freedom and friendliness is really a paradize for shopping, food, scenery, people-watching and stars-gazing!

Day1: 10 Dec 08 - Meeting Sharon, Doris, Huishi, Ellie & Veon at T3....


S4 approaching us....


Happy departing..

The first stop at Taipei is Shilin Night Market 士林夜市 and patronizing the famous Fried Chicken Chop!

Contented look 真的是‘鸡’不可失！没尝过就不算来过台北。

受不了的臭豆腐！很矛盾，又臭又香！

My 1st DIY rhinestone iron-on shirt

Another 3 days to Taipei trip and 1 more week to watching Aaron's concert at Taipei Arena...Yeah!

Thanks to my S4 friends, esp Doris for helping to order the hot-fix rhinestone and Huishi for passing it to me..

So happy to have successfully ironed it on as it required some 'techniques', thanks to the instructions. I would want to order other designs and decorate my boring T-shirts to make it shiny*...hehe!
