Pixar = Unique, creative, imaginative, Inspirational...

2 thumbs up for the exhibition!

Must be fun working at Pixar although the process of making a Pixar movie seem soooo complex..must appreciate their hardwork by not downloading their movies (Speaking for myself of course)



Hsini swims..

Since the pool re-opened over the weekend at Sea Mio..I've been going almost every day since it is so godarn convenient...and boy does it feel good to swim on a hot sunny day!! It has been years I have not swam and I'm glad you don't forget how to swim!

Typhoon Marakot causing havoc in south of Taiwan..

I am North..we're pretty lucky not to be going through landslides, collapsing bridges, floods..Even though the eye of the typhoon went straight for North of Taiwan (where I'm at)...the tail of the typhoon is causing disastrous outcomes in south of Taiwan..
Typhoons happen often in Taiwan especially during the summer..some big, some small..people are somehow adapted to it..but once in a while, you get some really unimaginable scenario...

See video of a collapsing hot spring hotel today in Tai Tung...South of Taiwan...oiye

No cheese curd obviously and gravy didn't even taste like gravy!
I still cleaned the plate.

Parents would have been so pissed off...

if I were to get hurt from a scooter accident because I went to feed these kitties...
Mom specifically told me NOT to ride a scooter too.
Thank god it wasn't me and that it wasn't too serious...I wouldn't have wanted to die wearing a big ugly yellow raincoat for men ;p

So this guy on a scooter in front of me didn't see this big pipe that fell off from a truck, rode over it and flew right off his scooter!!... and I saw it all because I was 5 seconds behind him...He looked okay. Frazzled. He was sitting up and conscious and looking at his bloody hand.

I was just coming back from Raymond's and I had taken off my glasses because it was raining ...While riding, I was just thinking that I should slow down a bit because I couldn't see clearly without my glasses and then I saw the guy fall off...I could have missed the pipe too!

Well, on a lighter fluffier note..these are the two cats I'm taking care of for the week!
Cotton is frizzled!



Video Linen and Cotton!

Hsini the copywriter...

My first day at ICRT radio station was DA bomb!

Right when I sat at my desk (well, the desk belongs to the copywriter who is on vacation) at 11 am ..even before the computer was turned on, I was told I had a deadline at 12 pm to meet! AT 11:30..I was still not logged into the computer because the IT guy was busy! But then the production manager went out for lunch and so that gave me an extra hour to write something up.

Throughout the day, I was given 3 ad liners to write up and also write up short 10-15 secs radio segments about Hakka culture. I finished 2 liners today and almost finished the Hakka stuff. One liner was for a free pre-screening for a Taiwanese film about baseball and the other was for a basketball competition happening this weekend!

I was told that I only needed to come in for a couple of hours today but I end up staying until I was told to go home...which was only at 6 pm ish. Maybe because I'm getting paid by the hour so they do not wish I work OT.

I am looking forward to doing more next week! I love the work dynamic over there!

Daddy has a healthy bladder sack! No more rocks?
*Mommy gave me a judgmental look when she saw me take a pic.



After clinic, we went for a walk in the park..Da an park..it's like Central Park in NY but not.



We observed squirrels..there were millions of them!


Aphrodisiac shot. Our brunch was oyster rice vermicelli from this renowned place near Longshan temple. The oysters were HUGE and porc intestines were as well..My dad loved it..I was iffy after swallowing down 10 big pieces of oysters at 10 am but it was good...If I go again, I'll take a small bowl.





After nappy time, dad and I went to le Toyota dealership...




le test drive



Free drink box served at the dealership..or maybe someone left it behind? PRO SWEAT drink..yum! Sweaty.

Because I can make you drool...

Lunch on a Sunday with the parents...we finished everything. Maybe a few cubes of tofu left.

I'll try not to make this a food blog but um..so no reviews from me. And dad and mom really insists for me to take pics of each dish... mom will actually chopstick block my dad so that I can take a pic of the untouched dish. Mom wants me to show them off to my sisters... so I think that she wants to slowly lure them into coming back to Taiwan with pics of food.
