-when beauty become a given.. a constant.. izzit still beauty?..
-is a saintly life without the desire to perform worth living?
haha. there're just too many photos, had a few days of international orientations.. well its more about just briefings. and made friends with all the international students since there aint many of us anyway. if anyone's interested i can probably send all a set of photos i took

the environment is great imho and the people here's really helpful. i think i can adept pretty well here. there's a tiny international student's community but i think that's perfectly fine. roommate's great. he's a zhikai type of guy just that he's huge. i'm sure you guys know what i'm talkin' about ^^. and i'm making really good friends with daniel and jana, they're germans. we can communicate pretty well.

tadaa... i'm finally up and going again.. living in 2 阿姨 's hse, its pretty comfy and the internet is running well xD. haven't been in that situation for a long while huh. rest assured that i'll keep writing smt from now on so long as i still have my hands on the internet xD
The plane trip took 13 hrs +50 minutes, with 3 hours transfer time. so its around 17 hours on the move. I sat beside a guy with the name of "golden armour" .. okay that's kinda like the direct translation from chinese but he's a decent guy. graduating from one of the top high schs in beijing, he does nothing but study.. oh well not exactly nothing. he said he loved geography and both of his parents worked in a museum.. he does not listen to music, does not hang out, does not play the computer, does not use the instant messenger system.. and he's fatter than me.
we've a good chat on the plane and thats about it. he left me a email which i probably will never bother to be the one who contact him? anyway...
D.C. 's airport is much below expectation. probably because of its old age. I've got the shock of my life when i stepped out of the airplane... its like... " where the hell are the chinese people!? " the fact is, i got used to seeing yellow skin all around me.. now there's only black and white... came across a racist cop who tried to boss the international students around.. "now stand behind the yellow line, this is not china anymore, you're in the US. " he shouted at some random person who just happened to be a little lost and is well behind the line.. i dont know, that guy just got transfered from prison police into the airport police or something? besides being unable to find my way to the right gate easily and the rude policeman, there's not much impression of that airport.
the transfer flight was more memorable. its the smallest plane that i ever boarded... 3 seats per roll and i can easily see the cabin from my seat.. its stability was above my expectation. i was ready to suffer as bad memories in taking small planes overwhelmed me. but when we took off. i just spent my time admiring the night view of the city below. small houses were evenly spread out in the field.. road lights and the lights from houses caused enough light pollution for it to be beautiful.
took a walk out yesterday.. spotted 3 wild dears and a wild rabbit... fire flies under the tree that flies up like some fireworks in blue... then faded away in the darkness.. really cool

okay . i appreciate this more than the solar thing.. especially in beijing that you cant see the sun...
pollution left this city nearly 4/5 of the time in smog..
at 4 pm today, the sky turned dark. and for a moment i thought all my clocks has stopped...
its a storm. and its like nothing in singapore. cos over there the day just don't turn into night because of the storm.. at one moment i thought it was solar eclipse all over again so i was like wtf...
moments later the sky begin to brighten up..
and the sky was clear.. like very clear. visibility at an all time high.
the simple pleasures in life..
oh well. i loved it.
i went to queue up for a train ticket today for the first time in my life. its an outlet.. so apparently they only start selling tickets 10 days before the day of departure.. and they only begin their sales at 7PM
so i went 10 minutes before.. according to the person at the counter. there'll be a queue...
well. i made it to the 2nd in the queue. and the first person demanded 3 tickets...
the person at the counter processed it for him and printed the tickets out.. one ticket magically went m issing in the process of printing the 3 tickets.. so she searched up and down for it
before she could find anything. her phone rang. and she chatted happily for 15 minutes. as the queue grew longer...
at 7: 20. i managed to get my turn and she told me all tickets has ran out. i asked if i can purchase another type of ticket the next morning and if it will likely be available. she gave me the pissed off face and said that she can only tell me what she can see now.
fuck it
god damn service industry of china's public transport
on my way back.. this is what the storm did to the trees.
