christmas in the park

我跟yoshiko的默契還真是不賴,同時吐舌頭,是怎樣呢?其他的臺灣人都是1號表情, 不過tina(最右邊)長的挺清秀的,所以勉強ok啦。

人多到不行,大家都帶了大包小包草席遮篷桌子椅子吃的喝的,敢情是來野餐多過看演唱會。

演唱會結束前開始放煙火,大家都興奮地又跳又叫。

這一張好有feel。

yha外的斜坡

這是我在yha每天往市中心去必經的斜坡,超陡的!每次邊走我就邊想,到底有沒有人滾下去過?

a day out with Yoshiko

i suggested that we check out the Auckland Art gallery. here it is, but it doesn't look very grand after they put the "super sale" sign up...i know.. so UNCOOL right..

introducing...YOSHIKO, here she is, taking pictures of what you saw on the above. lol.

and she realized i was taking picture of her all of a sudden, we both laughed like crazy.

here's the new wing of the art gallery in which was opened just last month.

yeah. read it. and say it. and do it.

here we are, smoking. my only smoke buddy here. i'm glad that we met. after visiting the art gallery, i asked her if she wants to go to the Auckland museum, she was like, "AGAIN? Museum? AGAIN?!!" hahahah she's a funny gal, isn't it. i think we both had enuf of art today.

yha's facilities and my meals

this is where i spend most of my time. the dining room.
this is where i store my food. and there's this free food section for people to leave their unfinished food behind for others. :) nice huh.

this is the kitchen.

this is where i cook.

this was my first proper meal. stir-fried chicken with potatoes. was too hungry and couldn't wait to finish it. while eating halfway i quickly took the picture and resume eating. :)

my 2nd proper meal. pasta. got everything i needed from the free food section. so this was a completely FREE meal. :) and i cooked for a japanese girl who hates cooking. in return, she gave me a pack of ciggies. hurray!

cherries. :) was a bit sour... but the strawberries i had was unbelievably good and sweet.

看書

我的房間幾乎都是老外。住了近一個禮拜,今天才有個亞洲人搬進來。我原本無意跟她打招呼,誰知臨出門前,竟發現她戴上了頭巾。順口一問,才知道她是來自馬囯的muslim。

我所見的老外,幾乎人手一書。她們每天出門的時間不長,每次囘房,只見她們都躺在床上看書,很少做別的事情。而她們離開旅館前,會故意把書留下。我思索良久不知爲何,直到有一天,跟一個睡在上格的澳洲人聊起,才知道她在旅程中不斷瘋狂地買書、看書,就生怕她看的書少了。書閱畢要不就擱著讓別人繼續看,要不就交換著看。聽她說起,曾經在南非等地旅遊的時候,每囘發現一家美國書店即欣喜若狂,瘋狂採購,深恐失去一次機會,就得過上好久沒書的日子。

老外真是個愛看書的民族啊。偶爾聼他們聊得起勁,我完全插不上嘴,只能默默地抱著我的電腦走到角落看我的電視劇去。

她們不像我沒了電腦想死,他們對於讀書安之如飴。就像此時此刻,我在寫blog,看電視劇,一堆老外,就躺在我身後的沙發上,享受他們看書的時光。

我在yha

不喜夜生活的人,晚上無所事事,大家就聚在沙發上談天説地。說說各國文化,說說無聊的笑話。看我笑得多開心!
坐在我對面的英國小子才21嵗,已經玩過大半個地球,第二天就要離開飛往hawaii,之後返家還債。你以爲英國人很有錢,他說,“去你的!我是借錢出來玩的!”
本來只想蹲在他旁邊拍張照,誰知他忽然一把抱我起來,就這樣...我被吃豆腐了。
老外一直說我的笑容很可愛...嗯...是真的,所以我就故作慍怒儸。旁邊的yoshiko也笑得好開心呀!

從新加坡上機

竟然在新加坡機場看到味千拉麵,真是讓人倍感親切。從前在紐約的時候,雖常經過,卻不曾有過踏入店内的念頭。不止因爲店面看起來不怎麽樣,紐約到處都是道地的日本料理,價格合理好吃選擇多,再加上,我自己就在日本餐廳工作,誰想吃什麽拉麵快餐呢?
從吉隆坡坐車下來,一路都沒有食物下肚,飢腸轆轆的時候,最適合吃一碗熱騰騰的湯麵,飽足感十分。你看,是豬肉哦。哈哈哈哈。馬來西亞的機場内永遠都吃不到的。
