12 January 2011 Wednesday | WRM 933就是萬人迷 | Comments (10)

The results were released late last year, but I was in a holiday mood and didn’t bother finding out more. You must have heard that a nation wide poll by Nielsen Media put Y.E.S. 93.3FM at the top of the charts, making us No. 1 for 18 consecutive years.

I first heard of the sycamore tree in the song, ‘Dream a Little Dream of Me’. I’ve not seen such a tree yet, but I’ve painted a really dreamy picture of it. I like the translation above. We entered the second leg of the WOOHOO! New Year Extravaganza on 03.01.2011. Before this, I drew a [...]

After a delicious home made breakfast in the middle of some mountain, we left for Taoyuan. On our way down, we saw a guy making a tremendously steep ascent on his bicycle. “他為甚麼要這樣折磨自己呢?我們要送他一程嗎?” There were two theme parks in close proximity. The roads leading to 六幅村 were jammed in both directions. “大家都去那裡⋯⋯ 難道我們要去的小人國不好玩嗎?” It was [...]

W!NYE Day Four: Hsinchu (01.01.2011)
9 January 2011 Sunday | 2010/12 - 2011/01 Taipei & Hong Kong | Comments Off

We got up really early on the first day of the year to catch a train ride to Hsinchu. It has almost become an annual tradition for me to visit Taipei at least once a year, and then venture out of the capital city. My camera was with me, but I was too lazy to [...]
