OMG!!! me singing karaoke @ Myspace!!!

Well, for those who have already known about this myspace service please feel free to laugh at my outdated discovery. The thing is I've known they have such function for a long time but I just never eager to found out how it works because I thought it would be stupid. However, since i had nothing better to do today, I went to myspace and registered an account and downloaded the karaoke program (you need to download a program in order to make the whole thing works). Then I started to try this function out.......

IT'S SOSOSOSOSO FXXKING AMAZING!

I was so addicted to it that I spent 5 hours recording songs. The good thing about this function is the operation system is so user friendly even your 70 years old grandma would know how to use. It almost does everything that you will need for creating a cover song video, from offering lyrics, vocal on/off, video and audio recording, to uploading. All you need is a mic, cam (optional) and a computer. If you pay some money you can even change the key of the song and have vocal effect. Moreover, the song selection is really good as well. Although It doesn't have every single songs, at least they have the hit ones, for both new and old songs (I was recording "over the rainbow" for over an hour). However, it still has few things i think it need to be improved, for intense, the lyrics animation doesn't sync with the music very well and the quality of the video it record for you is rather poor (unless you pay, of cuz) and only the first 10 recordings are free and if you want to continue recording you will need to pay. The thing that worthwhile to notice is you don't need to pay at all if you just want to sing along the karaoke music, however, you can just do that in youtube as well, the point of this service really is the recording part. Therefore i am actually thinking paying for this service maybe for a month, which is like 10USD. A month is actually more then enough since my enthusiasm for such things usually lasts less then that.....

anyway, i am still addicted!!!

Clubbing / annoying dude

I haven't been clubbing for ages. It was months ago when i went to club last time. Its not like i don't want to go but I found it the older i am the more i need a company to go to such place. However, when I was listening lady gaga while i was working out that afternoon, I had this strong feeling that i really need to go clubbing that night.

So, i went.

It was a very fun night at the club, the songs are good, the people are cute, except the fact that I was bothered by this annoying guy the whole night. This random white dude just suddenly came to me and told me I am very cute. I thought he just wanted to be friends since he told he had a boyfriend already, therefore I thought it was perfect because I could totally use a friend in the club and didn't have to worry this guy would have a crush on me since I have absolute no interest in him. However, unsurprisingly, he started acting touchy. The worst thing is there was this cute mixed dude there and we were staring at each other all night. I was kind of waiting for him to say something but it was totally ruined by this annoying guy cuz he almost kissed me in front of him and i had to literary push him away. Of course at the end this mixed guy didn't ask me anything and I have to tell that annoying guy to go away. Funny thing is that annoying guy was trying to convince me I have feeling for him. This tells me that sometimes we really have to be brutal to people we are not interested in at the club, otherwise every thing you do even pushing him away would seem like flirting to them, so let alone being nice and consider their feelings, in fact, they have no feelings, the only thing they want is fucking.

WELL WELL WELL, except this my clubbing night is actually not too bad and i am so excited when they play Lady gaga's new song - bad romance.

Heres the music video!

Meeeeeeeeeeeeee

I have been playing Call of duty: modern warfare 2 for the past few days non-stop and i still suck at this stupid shooting game. This is actually the first "first person shooting" game i have ever perched and so i am not ashamed of the fact that I am not that good at it, but, WHY WOULD I DIE SO EASILY?? whereas other online players don't seem to fall that easily like me, WHY!?!?!?!? so annoying.

W called again on Friday, the last time he called was almost 2 months ago. I felt much better when he called this time and I didn't seem to care what happened anymore so we just chatted. May be I am just so sick of giving a shit of what he did so much. We chatted for almost 2 hours, mostly boring stuff, but i guess that's not the point of this conversation. The point of this conversation is really about we can finally move on and start being friends. I really don't know if i really can just be friends with him to be honest, but I seem to be fine with it today, hell knows what I will think tomorrow.

This Korean dude makes me smile :)

My little middle finger

I was supper stressed for the past few days mainly because my roommate told me that he had to move out on January. That means if i want to stay in where i am staying I have to sign a new one-year contract with the management company but since I have too much uncertainty in my future, which i am graduating on Dec and i dont know if i could found a job here, I really can't commit that much. therefore I whether found a roommate who can sign the lease for me or found somewhere to move on Jan.

I am so SICK of moving!!!
looking for places>packing>moving>organizing
fuck fuck fuck fuck

Especially i absolutely LOVE where i am staying right now, i love this apartment in every aspect, location, price, and the quality of building...

Sign...despite I actually had few things I should be happy about, like finally I seem to find a friend and the positive feedbacks of my project, I still felt very stressed. In fact I felt even more stressed by not being able to enjoy those happy moments. I can't even eat properly after my roommate told he he had to leave. All i ate that night was a very small portion of vegetables.

Two days later, I was feeling a tiny bit better, but, still stressed, I went to the Art museum with my friend Lu because i thought Art piece might claim me down from the stress and art museum seems to be a good place to chat (feel free to hate me, art lovers). After telling her all my troubles at the art museum we decided to the shopping mall to get a birthday present for Lu's friend. It was quite cold that day so we decided to take a bus. When we were close to the bus stop we saw this bus was next to it and we started running. However, when we got there the bus driver started closing the door. Its not like the door got closed then we got there; its more like we got there then the door got closed. I was furious indeed, and the first idea that popped up in my head was that the driver was a racist. Well, you can't really blame me by thinking that because i had experienced this before, not just once. Therefore I rose my middle finger to the long-gone bus. Then I heard this guy behind yell, "hey man, don't do that, its not cool". Then i turned around and looked. I saw there were actually a bunch of people and they were waiting for the bus too then i realize the reason why the bus didn't wait for us is because the bus is full and its not because of "US". I was totally embarrassed and i really didn't know what to say. Then I received countless weird staring and I was supper uncomfortable. They much think, "OMG, this guy dress up so well but acted like a cavemen". Honestly, rising my middle finger is not something that i usually do. However, that day i was really stressed therefore i felt "everyone against/dislike me". I am not trying to make an excuse here for my rule action and i know what i did is wrong. I think this is actually a very good lesson for me to teach myself that I have to hold my temper even when i am in angry or stress, at lease before I figure things out.

anyway, I am feeling much better now regarding the housing issue, at lease i will have 2 month right?

Aunt visiting / Friend haunting in Craigslist

I have been extremely busy last week. One of the major reasons is my aunt was visiting me all the way form Hong Kong for 9 days and that means i had to take care of her in that 9 days. Please don't got me wrong, i am more then happy to take care of her since we are actually quite close, the thing is she came in the wrong time, when i have a presentation and essay due that week and an other typographic project (so now you could tell how busy i was). I was actually a little bit nervous becasue i have never had my relative stay in my place for that long and i really don't know if i would handle it especially she we have stay in the same room all the time. Fortunately, it turned out to be very pleasant a visit and she was being super understand. I originally thought 9 days was a bit long but now i really do miss her and wish she could have stayed a tiny bit longer. :(

anyway, Can you guys remember how many times I have complained that I have no friends???? seriously, i really can't remember, i just know i had complained lots.

well, after all the complaining, I've finally done something! (yay!)

I posted an ad on Craigslist saying i want to have friends (how simple!)

surprisingly i did get quite a lot of feedback and of cuz, that includes perverts replies too even i stated clearly in my ad that "if you think you might be one of those perverts then please don't reply" but you know, that kind of that do happen. LOL. After scanning all the replies i found one of them might be worth to reply to. oh, by the way, i got this straight guy's reply, saying that he wants to make friends with me. But, Honestly, i really do not think a straight guy would want to be friend with a gay gay so willingly, it really makes me think he is whether a questioning or a serial gay killer, do you guys think that sounds abnormal too? should I or shouldn't I reply him? anyway! i replied that "worth to reply to guy". After years of putting efforts on making local fiends in a western country. I do believe race is a factor when people pick their friends. However, I think that is no one's fault and thats just the way it is, especially Asian do that all the time too. Therefore when i replied him by email i attached my photos with it so that I could save me some time if he is a white gay sucker who is only looking for white gay friends. However, I got his email this evening and the context is actually quite genuine and it does make me believe he want to make friends with me and he even told me my photos are nice (of coz, i am a cute guy!!!). I just replied him before this blog entry, guys, WISH ME LUCK PLEASE!!!!!!

by the way, I successfully claimed 550 bucks from the dental insurance, yay!!

Arrrr........a weird sex dream..........

It's been awhile since last time I had a sex dream (by the way, i have never had a wet dream). Anyway, although this is obviously not the first time I have a sex dream, this time is a bit different then those ones i had before. Those sex dreams i used to have are mostly about me and my boyfriends or some faceless man. However, this time, was with one of my friend, a guy who is 5 years younger then me. I met this guy a year ago in school when I still had my computer monitor job. He often come to the computer lab and talk to me about some computer/computer game problem. He is absolutely great to hang out with and once he starts talking nothing can shut him up (sometimes it gets quite annoying). I have a feeling that he really likes me as a friend but the thing is I really don't not know deal with guys, especially younger guys. He tried to invite me to his house parties several times but I turned him down with no reasons (i dont know why). I am quite attracted to him because of his big personality, which is something I don't have and I desperately need. However, a younger dude like that is just not in my consideration at all, oh, did i mentioned that he is straight?

ANYWAY

yes, I had a sex dream about me and him. The dream was rather weird (how often do we experience "real" dreams in our life? I wonder), I appeared in this 60's looking, heavily industrialized area then i see this huge red industrialize colossus (please don't ask me whats a industrialized colossus like, i really can not describe) and I knew I have to destroy it (yea, this dream is heavily inspired by the video game "Shadow of the Colossus"). anyway, then i started to infiltrate into this colossus and suddenly I found this red shower room inside that colossus (how sexy). Then i saw him and we started making out. The sex was not clear what so ever (I am glad) and it ended pretty fast, the most weird thing about this dream is after we had sex he cut off his penis. It was rather big I have to say (LOL), I was so shocked I asked him what was he doing and he just told me it was fine and it would grow back (like a earth worm), I was scared indeed then I woke up.

colossus in the video "Shadow and colossus"

What's wrong with me? Do I actually have a crush on him that i don't even realize?? Whatever, I wish my next sex dream would be about me and some cute celebrities I like, like Ewan McGregor, Andy Samberg, Gerard Butler, Colin Firth...etc

Friends hunting

-I have decided each time when I upload a post i will post a random photo as well so my blog would not look as dull-

yes i know, that is such a brilliant idea

Bridget Jones is ironing her hair! How lovely!

The mid-term week has finally finished. sigh, finally...

how's my mid-term exam go? arrr.......lets not talk about it now

Lets talk about founding friends. I think its not the first time I mention I am actually quite lonely here in this city because most of my close friends have either gone back to Hong Kong or to other cities. I am not saying i have zero friends here but they most of them ain't really close. I guess I am the kind of people that lack of ability to make new friends. I don't want to make it sounds like an excuse, but I do believe being a International Homosexual Asian student here in a western country makes me even harder for me to know new friends, please do not tell me that is just something that created in my own head, I have experienced it myself. Nevertheless, I think the biggest challenge I have is i don't even know the where to found the "friend material" and i don't know how to increase my friend circle in this city. One of my close friend, Ri, recently got into this big University in UK for master program and she told me that the University has so many events and parties going on and people there are just very friendly and easy to make friend with, whereas my pathetic little art and design college only has snobbish designers and artists and no events like that. Honestly I envy her so much that sometimes I even wish I have chosen a bigger University so i would have more opportunity to know more friends, well, i guess its to late to say that now.

I am getting more and more desperate these few days and I finally went online and searched for some LGBT sport organizations in my area (I think it might be more comfortable for me to know more gay friends here) but it turned out they are freaking EXPENSIVE! It costs around 200USD in average to join whatever-sport-is leagues for a year (I searched for water polo league as well since the only sport I am good at is swimming, but it cost 400USD). I know the fees may actually include the rent of the gymnasium, but does it really have to cost that much? sigh....can anyone tell me when sport becomes such a luxurious activities to practice?

I recently talked to A (who is living in the other side of the earth) about this issue and she told me this same old story about how that kind of things would just happen in the most natural way and we don't really have to do much to get it (just like love). However, I've also been told that I hadn't been putting enough effort to make new friends. So, can anyone tell me how much effort i should put in order to keep this amazing balance between trying to hard and not trying hard enough?

sigh....

I am so stressed

I don't want to make this blog as a twitter blog, but, i am stressed!!!!!!

i have my exam tomorrow but i don't want to study!!!!!!!!!!

the blog will have regular post again once i finish my exam........

Recent Princesm - Super frustrated....

- Mid-Term Exam of the class "Art and Fashion", which i still haven't read all the readings
- Just paid 600 bucks for Dental
- The transit took 2 tickets from me today
- forgot my lock for locker in YMCA, paid an extra 2bucks for the shitty YMCA lock.

Why me?

I really can't wait...Final Fantasy XIII just looks amazing

TGS is on right now so I can't really not talk about games.

I am so excited to see all the news of Final Fantasy XIII !!!

The Final Fantasy franchise is one my a favorite amount other games. I started playing FF when FFVIII came out (unfortunately not FFVII) and I just fail in love with it once I played it. However, the new FF franchise, which is FFXIII, seems to have the longest developing time in the game history (I think the only one that could compare with it is the GT franchise)

I really hope the characters in FFXIII will be able to change their weapons (I want to use polearms!!!) but it does seems to have such an opinion according to what I saw \(T _T)/

Moreover, every Summon in this generation seem to have the ability to transform into different transportation, like motor bike, house, sports car...etc.

Anyway, The English version of the game is not coming out until next year spring and since SE is notorious for their delay in releasing date, I guess by the time I could actually play it it will be about next year summer....

Here's the new trailer of the game(released in TGS '09")

Princesm as a gamer - Lost Planet 2 Demo at PS3

OMG, The Lost Panet 2 is sosoosososo good. I downloaded the Demo few days ago and played with my friend Mx yesterday. The game play is very good, especially it adopts the co-cop idea from Resident evil 5(both games are from is from capcom). It just feels very good to be able to have the adventure of the game with your friends/strangers, and it actually make those action-advanture games less scary for me to play (I probably would not be able to finish Resident evil 5 if i didn't play it with an other player online). Moreover, The graphic of TLP2 is amazing as well (its even better then Resident evil 5!), I hope the the resolution would pump into 1080p when the official version release cuz it still look a bit rough.

release date : 2009 winter(xbox) / unknown (PS3)

sign... yea... I am a PS3 owner =.=

W, still

I felt very bad after sending him the email, knowing that he probably would not call anymore.

When I think about all the bad things that he did to me when he was here and all the sufferings that I have been thought plus the fact that he could just talk to me again without mentioning a thing about what happened, not even an proper apology, I really do believe sending him that “never-call-again” email was a right thing to do. However, pathetically, I do really miss him. Therefore sometimes I would tell myself that the fact that he is calling and being all gentle might be the best case scenario already because my dignity will never allow me to call him after what happened, thus I shouldn’t have ruined it, because it might be the only chance for us to get back together.

I am real pathetic, I know.

I kinda regard that I didn’t tell him the “lying” incident was not the whole reason why I don’t want to talk to him anymore because I wanted him to know he has done other bad things to me too, which I was too chicken to complain since I wanted to protect the “relationship” that I thought we had at the time, and to let him suffers from it as well since he seems like he still give a shit.

Anyway, I've spent hours and hours everyday thinking if what I've done was a right thing to do and it was real painful.

Few hours ago, I got this email from him

I'm sorry... 

I really miss you as a friend, and hope you wont be angry at me forever.. I'm sorry I hurt you - I was wrong.

Dont want to bug you if you dont want to talk to me, so if you feel like you could forgive me, maybe you could get in touch some time..



W

Miss me as a friend? What? Friend? What on earth would make you think that we were friends before? Have I ever said I want to be friend with you? Anyway, it wouldn't be any different if he said he misses because of other reasons and at least I got a relatively more thoughtful apologize now then the shitty one that he wrote me before. I don't know what to write back to him yet, in fact, i don't even know what i am supposed to feel right now...

So, I have decided...

W called again yesterday and I knew he would call.

I actually planned to tell him not to call anymore when he calls again because I started thinking about him more and more after he called last week

but i didn't tell him when he called yesterday, instead, we had a pleasant conversation for more then an hour

However, the conversation still ended badly.

W: How was your weekend?
me: Not much, you?
W: not much either, my friends were busy, so I was staying at home all the time
me: same here, especially I don't have much friends left in here now and i found it hard to know new friends
W: I found it hard too

Right at that moment, It reminded me how he laid about meeting his "friend" who he met from internet through a dating website. I just can't help to get angry

me: How come? I think you are good at that.
W: No i am not
me: well, you have your way to do it
W: what?
me: I said you have your way to do it

Then he realized what I was referring to then we both went silence. Then I realized I had said something I shouldn't have said because i don't want him to know I still give a shit. Afterward, I told him I had things to do so i had to go. At the moment, i know I have to end it, I can't talk to him like I am some sort of time bomb that I don't know when I will explode.

I sent him this email few hours after the phone call.

W,

I had a really good time talking to you today and last week, but I just can't keep talking to you and pretend nothing have happened. What happened still hurts, therefore I think we should stop talking. I am sure you will understand and I hope we can be friends someday.

regards
P

It hurts so bad to tell such things to a person who you love...

Yup, W called again

Last Sunday, I got a phone call while I was preparing the "peanuts chicken feet" soup for the night. I totally thought It was my friend R because I was going to meet her the next day. However, when I answered the phone I had this unfamiliar voice saying hello to me but without calling my name. I immediately thought that is a miss-dial or one of those stupid cold-calls.

him: Hello
me: yes?
him: hey, it's me
me: you are?
him: guess who i am (honestly I really HATE when people do this)
me: arrrr, T? (I didn't think he is T, but if he insist that I have to guess, then that would be my only answer)
him: no
me: hmmmm, i really have no idea, can you just tell me who you are?
him: It's W.

I was in shocked and froze for few seconds because I really didn't expect he would call me, at least not by phone.

that was the first conversation we had since we had a fight in july

Then I bursted into laughter and tried to use the laughter to cover my embarrassment. In the past two years, we talked at least once a week and now I don't even recognize his voice. I was embarrassed but I also felt quite good by the fact that I was forgetting him and now he knows it too.

I didn't expect he would call because the last time he told me he would, he didn't, which is a good thing actually, I know if we keep talking I will never be able to forget him, I would rather things end like that. Sometimes I do wonder why he is not calling, which I was doing again in that morning. I told him that, I told him it's interesting that I was just thinking about him in the morning and now he is calling. Right after that he went, "oh, why were you thinking about me?" I guess he wanted me to say i miss him but obviously i didn't. Then he told me he misses me a lot but I didn't say anything afterward. Then we chatted like how we usually do. I told him I went to Vancouver and he told me he went to LA in the same period of time. I found that rather ironic that we were actually that close geographically. In our conversation, he was constantly telling me he "have so much things that he wants to tell me", I guess that is the other way of him saying he misses me. Anyway, I ended our conversation by telling him I have to continue cooking, which is partly true, but the fact is I can not bear the fact that he is always the one who ends the conversation in the past anymore, therefore, i have to be the one who ends the conversation this time and will not give him a chance to believe he is getting the same old person who can take advantage of back.

W, what the hell are you doing?

Vancouver geeky boy (2)

The next day, A and I walked around UBC (gosh, UBC IS beautiful) and eventually Kate joined us since she had been hanging around there already. However, it soon became the worst day of my trip because it revealed what Kate really is, a paranoid psycho. Actually A did kinda warn me about that but apparently A was being too nice she didn't really went all the way to the details. Since there were so many little annoying incidents and conversations that happened that day, I am not going to go over them one-by-one here. All I can say is Kate is a girl who is actually not that confident with her physical appearance and she clearly suffers from her social life. Thus it makes her so paranoid about the idea of "hanging out with a friend" and "how she thinks people would think about her". She also can be EXTREMELY pushy when she wants/needs to "hang out with" someone, yea, that sounds like a psycho isn't it. Anyway, one might ask how the whole "Kate is a social paranoid" thing relates to Vancouver geeky boy(vgb). The answer is that it means she will never introduce me to vgb no matter how many times I ask her to. I noticed that when I asked her if she could ask vgb to have supper with us or going to the beach with us the next day,I got ambiguous blahs as an answer so eventually i realized no matter how many times I ask her she will still give me the same old answer. Therefore, I decided to give up on knowing this vgb through Kate and planned on getting to know him through one of the most important inventions of the world, Facebook.

That is the story of me meeting a guy who I didn't really meet in Van.

Honestly although I do find this vgb quite attractive, I've decided I should just to be friends with him because I really don't need another long distance relationship after W. Another reason I want to know this guy is because Kate literally described him as a perfect (gay) human being therefore I really want to know if such a perfect man could really exist since I am disappointed in gay man because of W, whom I thought was so perfect but it turned out he is not.

I sent my first message to him about 2 weeks ago which is a week after I went back home and we have been chatting since then.

One funny thing is since I am pretty sure this vgb has never seen the psycho side of Kate so I had to tell him not to tell Kate that we are chatting now because the whole spying on a friend's friends thing is rather embarrassing for me (which is partly true, but, the truth is i am sure if Kate knew that I started talking to him once i added her on facebook she will think i am using her and stealing a friend of her from her, which is a normal social paranoid would do) :P

Vancouver geeky boy (1)

As I promised I am going to talk about the story of the boy who i DIDN'T meet when I was in Vancouver in this post.

However, before I talk about this guy I have to talk about this girl "Kate" (false name of coz) because she is kinda our Cupid, but a very annoying one.

When I was in Vancouver two weeks ago, "A" threw a Mafia game party for me at her house since she knew I love playing the game Mafia (of cuz she loves it too). Mafia is a game that requires numerous intelligent players to involve (at lease 8 players), therefore it’s very hard to gather the party to make a successful Mafia game. That night A invited lots of her friends included her high school classmate Kate. My first impression of Kate was that she was a friendly, confident, intelligent girl who doesn't really care about her appearance. The game was really fun but several people left after few games and at the end there were only 7 of us left in the game. Then I asked the remaining people if they know anyone live nearby they could invite to join the game. Then Kate immediately said she knew a guy who might be able to join the game and this gay is very hot and he is also gay as well. Then I was like, "yea, that's great, call him now". However, she suddenly changed her mind, she told me that might not be a good idea to invite him because he had to ride the bike home after the game and it was late night already. That really doesn't sound very convincing to me and I think it was very random for her to change her mind all in a sudden but I knew there's nothing I could do to make her to invite that cute gay guy to join us, I was disappointed indeed. Then I asked her if she could show me his photos on her facebook. This guy, lets call him Vancouver geeky boy (vgb) for now, is actually a fairly sweet, geek looking guy (he wears geeky glasses in most of his pictures on facebook), yet he is not "hot", which is what Kate described him as (I really doubt if Kate know what "hot" means after I see vgb's picture). Nevertheless, I personally do found him and attractive especially his geeky look (I am a big geek lover, I have no idea why :-D). Then I started asking Kate about this vgb. Kate seemed very excited when she talked about him and she just kept telling us how sweet and talented he is. Eventually we carried on the topic after the game while we were having bubble tea. She told us it's a pity that he is gay otherwise they would be dating already. Honestly I don't see that coming even if vgb is a straight guy (of course I didn't saying anything). At that time, I've felt very intrigued by who vgb really is and I know I have to find a way to get Kate to introduce us...

TureBlooding ep11

Okay, I know I said I was going to talk about the guy who I DID NOT meet in Vancouver in this post but I just can't not talk about trueblood



Since I was in Vancouver when the last episode was aired and I didn't have a chance to watch it until few days ago.



I have to say the last episode of the famous vampire series is very disappointing! When it started to show the end credits I was like "what the fuck? It’s finished? No way!". That entire episode only included trash talks between Jason and Andy, the boring scene of Bill staying in the vampire queen's mansion and Lafayette's stupid panic over Eric. I have no fucking clue why Sookie would lay down with that old guy in her house for so long with no reason, It was just stupid. I really hope all the boredom this episode has is just the strategy of presenting the season finale, which is going to air two weeks later.

Key scenes of episode 11 (there's only one)

Cross-dressing Eric, cute!

Back from Vancouver

I'm really sorry it took so long for me to update my blog since coming back from Vancouver, it's mostly because I've been meeting up with friends. Anyway...

To sum it up, let me say: the trip was amazing!!!

I just can't tell you guys how much this trip means to me. Honestly I really didn't expect this trip would be this fun and amazing when I decided to go. Now, I have to take back what I had said about Vancouver... which was that I thought it wouldn't surprise me. In fact, this city amazes me in many ways.

First, the food there is AMAZING! Japanese food is really popular there and they are all very good (but it might just be because I have a nice local escorts who brought me to the nice ones). Anyway not only Japanese but all the food there is just generally very nice, I didn't even have one bad meal there, some might be less impressive, but over all they are really good. Second, streets are so green, there are so many trees in the city so you will always find yourself walking under trees. Plus the nice weather when I was visiting, it was probably one the best downtown walking/shopping experiences i have had. Oh oh oh, the streets are very clean and neat as well, you could tell by not being able to see any ugly cheap graffiti there.

isn't it just look amazing?

Deep fried big fat oysters burger, so oily so yummy

streets and parks are very clean, instead of ugly cheap graffiti, you see cute installation

gas town, so nice

Gay scene

There are two major gay clubs in Vancouver which are Odyssey and Celebrities (yea, I know, it sounds so lame). I was lucky enough to be able to go to both clubs in different days during the trip. The first one I went was Odyssey, I went on Thursday because every Thursday night they have a event called "Shower Power", which they put a naked gay dancer into a glass made rectangular tube with a shower tap to let them shower/dance inside. Honestly those beefy guys aren't really my cup of tea but I still quite enjoy clubbing there. One thing I found it quite pleasing to dance there is the pleasant atmosphere of the mixture of different races, especially between White and Asian (interestingly I didn't see lots of black there, why would that be?). Where I am living, most White and Asian gay guys are usually stay with their own crowds. I was surprised there were quite a lot of people there even in the weekday too. The second club I went to is Celebrities. I am not sure if its because I look kinda new to them therefore I actually got checked out quite a lot. The clubbing experience there was nice too, I love it for the same reason as the other club since these two clubs don't have much difference.The only problem I have with both clubs is their music kinda sucks and the worst thing is both club play the same style of songs, which is mixing-all-the-music-into-gayish-dance-music songs. I understand lots of gay guys do like house/dance music, but is it necessary to play the exact same kind of music when there are only two gay major clubs there? I have to say I really hate when they mix hip-hop songs into dance music. I really don't see what's the point of doubling the beats of lady gaga's songs. Anyway, although the music was not that great but the whole clubbing experience was still quite pleasant.

Going to Vancouver

I am now at the airport waiting to get into the plane to go to Vancouver, the mysterious city in Canada where full of wealthy Hong Kong people. My friend even told me because of Van is now heavily populated by Hong Kong immigrant therefore Vancouver has a nickname called "Hongcouver". The reason I am traveling so far away for a city that so lack of surprises for me is because I want to visit A. I believe I had mentioned A before in one of my older post, which featured a conversation between us about W. A is one of my very best friends who I can really share absolutely anything to her (I bet she must feel flattered when she read this, but A, don't be too proud and keep reading) and I always get very rational and practical responds (I guess I had mention this before too). She is now studying for her master degree in UBC, one of the top two Universities in Canada, the other one is U of T, therefore I decided to use my last bit of my last summer holiday to visit her. To be very very honest Vancouver is actually not where I want to go originally. For those who has been reading this blog for awhile (I don't even know such person exist) must know that I originally planned to go to London to visit W. However, bad things do happen, so the trip to London is cancelled and since I have no plan to go back to Hong Kong therefore the plan became going to Canada to visit A. Moreover, Vancouver is my mum once told me Vancouver is very pretty place and I know if I am not going now I will never want to go again. Since this is a last minute thing and sort of a Healing trip for me from the trauma of not being able to go to London to see W and especially this is VANCOUVER, therefore I am not really expecting any exciting adventure. However… This is the conversation between me and my friend Lu

Lu, "Wow, you going to Vancouver?"
Me, "Yea, since I am not going to London."
Lu, "Are you going to the Rocky Mountain as well? I've heard it's beautiful there"
Me, "Oh...well, who said we have to fill in our time with activities when we travel? I think sometimes traveling can also be relaxing, empty and slow."
Lu, "Oh…whatever you like then, it's just not my travel principles."

However…after being a cynic for awhile…

Me, "Hey A, Is Rocky Mountain far away?"
A, "yes, very far away"
Me, "oh…well…fine then…I am just curious…" :-P
