Lazy To Explain...............

Having done with my business dinner, and having had a conversation before, I felt a bit bored sometimes, having to explain again and again, about my job experience and how many times I have been to Japan, taking care of Japanese market. And talking to people who are like empty nuts make it even worse. I do not like this. But that is also part of working life, tired. Boasting is another part that I dislike too.
OK, bite, but will take it easy anyway.

Tokyo-Shopping

Oo, talking about enjoying, today, I am right now in Tokyo, oooooooo, so good. I realised how much I miss Tokyo, the last trip was in September 2007.
And walking around, and yesterday in Shinagawa, and now in Tokyo city centre, walking through all the malls, supermarkets, seeing the fresh vegetables, fruits, the packaging of all their products, ooooooo, i realise how much I miss Tokyo and how I wish I can have more time.....
Ok no complain, at least, yesterday did some window shopping in Yebisu mall, and now, around Marunouchi area. Bought some clothes from BEAMS, my favourite brand, and then some cakes (green tea cake, and next, hopefully, one to two bags, may be from Porter, Drastic (not sure if this is a new brand), and Takeuchi which I have yet to see any so far. How I miss all this, and how I wish I bring along bigger luggage and have more time.
haha, and not forgetting to 'print' more money,....................for shopping.
Hey guys, in Beams, they even deducted the tax out for me. I am glad, not much, but enough for my tea break......

OK ok, got to take shower, and start dressing nicely. Here in Tokyo, appearance is number 1.
Fashion, fashion and fashion, from toddlers to young children, from aunty to ah pek, all of them will take care of their appearance and what they wear.
Oh yeah, I think even kitchen wares, are also in fashion. They have so many stores selling all sort of new wares, new designs......
Tokyooooooooooooooooooo I love you..

Now You Can See The Difference




I guess the earlier photo was taken about 14 years ago, compared to the recent one?

Aging for sure lah, but then age gracefully, as the saying goes. Apa macam, still keep quite well, right. Old is gold...... ginger, the more mature it is, the spicier it tastes, and macam macam lagi.


That first photo was the courtesy of Joyce, my sis in San Franscisco and may be to remind me that I used to be young. Well, I guess everybody does. And then, about 2 months ago, Jenna said I looked older, relatively to myself lah. So, that is part and parcel of life, is this not.


As long as you enjoy a meaningful throughout the aging process, rightttttt.....

Hi From Tokyo, Japan

It has been more than a week since my last update, because as I said, my blog or in fact the whole blogsite.com is non-accessible in China itself, hence I can't write, can't update anything at all. And now I am in Tokyo, at my friend's house in Tokyo.
Just came back from Yakitori dinner, and ate a lof of fruits, Japanese Fuji apple, and orange. Taste fantastic. And coincidentally, it is raining, and that is what I like, romantic feeling.
Oh yeah, just now went to look at some of the bags there, Porter brand, but have not look at Takeuchi as yet. Hoping to get something nice then, to bring it back to Beijing.
And I found a pair of sport shoes, Patrick which looks cool. My friend say, that is too young for me, but what is young and what is old? As long as it looks good and I feel good, then why not. There is nothing wrong, right..........as long as it suits me well and I feel happy about it.
OK for now, shower time, then sleeping. Tomorrow will continue with my shopping spree, and then another business dinner at nite time.

Choong, Tokyo, 10.10pm.

Fenghuang-凤凰











Visited this old, traditional riverside city, surrounded by hillside. Feeling is nice, and I think it is a romantic place to visit. Please make sure, if you visit this place, find rooms next to riverside. It can range from RMB 60 per nite to RMB 300 per nite, depends on what category of rooms you want, and how much you are willing to fork out. There is a night market too, for food, so make sure you do not miss it.

A Challenge

Thanks for wishes from Poh Jen your email and thanks for your call.
Taking care of dad for one week, cooking for healthy food and cleaning, taking care of his medicine time (antibiotics, blood control, edema, etc, etc), is a challenge. And at the same time, going out to arrange for other things, and replying company emails in the middle of the nite, telephone calls from company for business related issues. Glad that, I manage to handle that well, despite having odd sleeping hours.

Lets see how it goes on Monday, after Doctor's checking, but so far, I see improvement. Hopefully, dad will recover faster and thanks to Nancy my sister, who will come back to BM to support further, tomorrow for me to go back to Beijing on Sunday Morning.
Will update later on this related issue.

Choong, BM.

zhangjiajie-张家界











The picture tell a thousand words. Zhangjiajie is very beautiful and it is situated in Hunan province. I heard the television series, Journey to the west was filmed here too, some sceneries.
I do not have time to write too much here, and do not have time to unload the picture on the hotel I stayed here which was gorgeous. I love this place and very enjoyable.
