post-magic

We constantly yearn for something magical, exciting and out of the ordinary to spice up our mundane lives. But after something amazing happens, it is difficult to come to terms with the harsh reality that whatever it was is over, that it will forever be a distant memory (and may even be dismissed by others as a figment of our imagination upon recollection in future), that our lives go back to being mundane from now on. The lingering, bittersweet aftertaste of magic is an addiction far worse than the most potent of drugs.

live from taipei

it's like 2.36 am now.

but i am still packing! haha...as much as i tell myself not to shop too much, there's just no running away from all those lovely tops and dresses and boots and jackets and books and stationary...so even though i only changed 250 SGD, the existence of such a thing called the credit card has allowed me to shop beyond my cash limit.

i have decided that 诚品 is officially one of my most favourite places to shop...and my most favourite place to shop alone. i can totally sit on one of their staircases and read for hours and hours...

oh wait. the main point of my trip is jay chou! not shopping.

yes, attended his press conference this afternoon. very interesting coz it was held at an unusual place. not the usual grand 6 star hotel ballroom, but in a film studio that looks like this on the outside...



with a stage that looks like this inside.



cool rite. take a look up close.



okok...before u get impatient and start cursing me...haha, here's a pic with jay in it.



not enough? this one should do.



enjoy...and do stay tuned to Yes 933 for the special report on 魔杰座's press conference and the interview with Jay!

P.S. he performed magic tricks and i managed to record it down on video. watch out for it on yes933.sg. :)

this picture was taken during gege's CD launch. nice.

but too bad it was on stage while she was being interviewed and she wasn't looking at the camera. (ha! 假公济私!)

A Someone Story

been wanting to do this someone story for quite awhile. coz i've heard many interesting stories that cannot be presented as the true full story for reasons that cannot be explicated.

okie here goes.


Someone and Someone Else are both apple pie makers.

Someone suggested to Someone Else, out of goodwill, a way to buy good quality apples.

Someone said, "Maybe you should try and get to know the apple seller better, and he'll give you the best quality apples!"

Somone Else replied, "No. I will not rely on personal relationships to get good apples."

Someone was impressed by Someone Else's integrity.

However, soon after, Someone found out from a friend that Someone Else actually had tea with the apple seller.

So much for integrity.
