Dearest all, for your info, this blogger has left Vancouver at 10:30 Pacific Standard Time (PST), February 17, 2006 Friday, and soundly touched down in Taipei at 15:45 our homely Bolehland time (MYT), February 18, 2006 Saturday. Had 2 meals, namely lunch at like 12:00 PST and dinner at 17:00 PST.

The 4 movies watched being Bee (about Bee the Spelling Contest and some mysterious I-dunno-what stuffs), An Unfinished Life starring Jennifer Lopez, Duma and satu lagi the first one, story about country singers Johnny Cash and June Carter, whose title I’ve forgotten laa, Walk with me or something to that effect if I’m not mistaken…

Imagine spending 29 hours and 15 minutes for a flight of 12 hours and 15 minutes… Before I boarded the plane, just had some time to write my better half a postcard from the Starbucks, and bought her a T-shirt, one of the kind back in Bolehland, yeay !

And there’s the bad news. Thanks to my stupidity, until the last minute before I was supposed to leave for airport, I still failed to burn all the photos I took in Vancouver and Victoria into a CD. Uncle will help me with it, and send it to me via snail mail later, which means, for the time being, there will be no more pictures from Canada, what a pity for both you and me.

I am currently making this disclosure to you, many thanks to the free internet access at the Area A of Terminal 1, Taipei International Airport, waiting to catch my connexion flight to Kaohsiung later at 18:10 MYT. Across the walkway, I have just bought my significant other a pair of traditional bracelets, blue and green respectively, made by Taiwanese First Nations. Do you think she will like it ?

Owh yeah, many days ago, Lyn my meimei left a comment, asking if I miss Bolehland. Should I ? I do, not so much the congestion, racial discrimination, haze or religious bigotry, but rather, dudes like all of you ! Nore, Lyn, Ted, Budu, Aiskrim, Bob, Acai, Alvin… and also the non-blogger dudes such as Izzah and my family and friends including first and foremost my sweetie in Kota Bharu. The list goes on and on and on for another hour at least. I do rindui you eh, very much indeed !

As a measure to promote new comrades joining the blogging world, let’s now take a look at the thought provoking entry by Aiskrim on the recent worldwide violence as disguising as the sequal for the cartoons published as granted by freedom of press, eventhough this blogger couldn’t help but think that publisher should have known better than doing what they have done. But is the arson and murder, or the suspension of newspaper in Sarawak justified ? Let’s enjoy Wajarkan Tribunal Sarawak Dimansuhkan ?, bought to you by poet, debator, writer and now blogger newbie, Aiskrim !

Until we meet again, offline or online, see ya, Salam Reformasi, Lawan Tetap Lawan, mwahsss :-) !~
