yep, that's what happend on 7th december. we did the stanchart 1/2 marathon. no pictures this time round because anGy and the rest ran a little too.
i targeted for sub-2, and looked eagerly for the sub-2 pacers along the way. never got to see any of them. just kept bumping into the sub-2hr15min guys. i wanted to complete sub-2 because I thought we were doing 20km. it turned out that we were doing 21 instead. so i guess, in consolation, 6 minutes for one extra km isn't that bad, is it?
it's was a good run. pretty easy. just like it's been a good year. the other 2,534 mes must be screaming "are you joking?!" but well, this is what it is, right?
i try, i try, i try, and then i move on. i'm just me.
wishing all a warm christmas and a healthy new year.

心情 x x 的宝岛之旅
2008/12/18
gN说：
非常感谢，带回6年前初到宝岛的回忆。。。不过当时没有101、没有高铁:)
你拍得很艺术、很写意、很生活。。。此趟有"击破点"-- 小黄花是惊喜，很美！为什么你拍的天可以这么蓝？月亮这么清？几十年后，台湾人要跟你拿历史，haha, 那些门。。。

我答：
在那里的时候都没有感觉很好玩，回来看到照片才有一点沾沾自喜，有点得意，哈哈。总算不费此行。
gN又说：
用心眼拍和用肉眼拍不一样。。。
其实"相由心生"，照片要是心眼拍的，是因为有触动才有内涵，就能感动。你的宝岛照片似乎是肉眼过滤后，心眼真挚的表达。。。要感激能到地球一个角落松懈，无忧无虑过几天，有时看似不怎样，回味后却是收获多！几时可以这么潇洒？？？我在想:)
**********************************************************************************
真的，这次旅行有点怪怪的。
朋友说是因为年纪大了不适合单独旅行。
我也说不上来。
去之前我只知道一定要在年过之前往国外跑一趟，这样才不会好像缺了什么。所以我对这一趟是有期望的。不是那种要求很高的期望，只是想要让自己的心情放假，平平淡淡，清闲过几天。
没成。
还好回来之前在台北和Calvin碰面，才多聊了几句。碰巧他那个周末有空，带我在台北兜了几个地方，总算还能让我有“到此一游”的成就感。
另外，那些照片。。。:)

终于
明天终于要到台湾去了。
六月买好了机票但是因为表弟的事没去成。也谈不上遗憾。现在似乎没有什么事是放不下的。这样的自在让心里好受多了。
一年又要过去了，好快。顿时也不知道该写些什么。总是以为发生的事情多，感触就会多。要写的时候又似乎没什么好下笔的。
我想心安理得，睡得好，健健康康就好。

还是咱们国家好
昨天我给我的airwave放了一天假。从市区回来，我在地铁上坐在两个中国人旁边。
甲：再做两年就可以回去了。
乙：他们有一些打算再做几年，然后就可以申请PR.
甲：PR有什么好？
乙：就是啊，而且家里还有老婆孩子，我多想早点回去。这里有什么好？又没有烟，又没有酒。
甲：对啊，这儿哪有我们国家好？
乙：那天我跟两个朋友去吃饭，叫了三个菜和两瓶啤酒。这样就要50块。那是要两百多块人民币！
I pretended to listen to my ipod but was actually enjoying listening to their conversation. They are so proud of their country. They were certainly not whispering. In a cabin (almost) full of Singaporeans, I thought they were quite bold. I definitely wouldn't have done the same if I were in their country.
The irony is that we sometimes think the Chinese people are here. Everywhere. There are at the food courts, coffee shops, shopping malls, food reflexology centres, ... And we wonder, why don't they go back? And here you have these 2 who really do want to go back. They don't think we are really any good.
The other thing that struck me was the pain of 离乡背井. I could almost feel 甲's heavy heart at the mention of his 老婆孩子。I hope he gets home to his family soon.
