Everything from the last few days of my first Semester in Taiwan. The good, the bad, the ugly, and the awesome. Hahaha. Starring (in order of appearance) Leng, a fountain thingy, Yin, Jess, Sophia, a random dog, and some bikes.
This s a really simple (badly written, stupid) story I wrote for Chinese class (which is why it sounds a bit like a children’s story, I suppose).
Every morning, a bright light rose into the sky – it was the sun. It crossed the skies from East to West and beneath it, everything was warm and joyful.
It was joined during the day by the prince of the sun who watched over the day. At the end of the day, they would both sink into the sea and rest until the next day.
Then, as the moon would rise into the skies every evening, another would catch a glimpse of the prince. The princess of the moon was very different to the prince of the sun – she was calm and mysterious.
Although the princess was accompanied by the moon and the stars every night, the more she saw the sun price, the more she wanted to meet him. She became sad and lonely, so the moon decided to arrange a meeting between them.
One day, while the sun was still high in the sky, the moon rose, and along with her, came the princess. The princess was then able to meet the prince, and they sat by a lake for hours, talking and sharing stories.
Then, when it was time to leave, the two realised that they did not want to part. They spoke with the sun and the moon, asking them for advice on what to do, and they finally reached an agreement.
The prince asked the princess to stay with him forever, to marry him, and she agreed. Every day from that moment on, the moon would be present in the sky for most of the day so that the prince and the princess could be together.
Then once a month, the moon would disappear from the skies completely and would spend that night visiting the princess who now lives in a grand castle with the prince.
On the last day of May, 2010 I went for a walk to the riverside with my good friend, Jess after returning from the area near 台電大樓站 Taipower Building Station, and this is the result – 20 photos in extra obvious Sha style. Haha.
As a rule of thumb, I don’t allow myself to crop more than 1 out of every 10 photos and if I do any editing to a photo, I limit it to 10 minutes, after which, if I still don’t have the desired effect, then too bad, I save it and post it anyway. Haha. I don’t even need such conditions but still, I made them and I stick to them. No idea why. (more…)
Jay Chou recently released his tenth album, 跨時代 and is preparing for his concert in June. The album is, in my opinion, quite good. Although the DVD that comes with the metal box edition only has two MVs, meaning if you want the rest, they’ll probably come bundled with and edition of the convert DVD.
