Hello from Taiwan

My gosh, where did the first three months of 2010 go? Is it just me, of does this year go by faster? Without knowing it, here goes the first quarter already. Oh boy…
Meanwhile, I went from posting here once a week to… once a month.
I’ve been really, really busy. I am sure this is not [...]

Many colors of Zion

 

I’ve been really busy (doesn’t this sound familiar?). I’ve been real busy doing my favorite things such as taking trips, caring for Taiwan, spending time with my family, meeting up with friends, plus painting!!! Painting!!! And more painting!!!
In the past few months I’ve finished more paintings than I normally produce, because I have some deadlines [...]

Our frequent weekend activity

One big area of my life that I never wrote much about on this blog is the political activities and the community services that I do. It started with attending Taiwanese Independence events (I am strongly pro Taiwanese Independence), then it lead to volunteering at those events, to joining a few grass root organizations, to participating [...]

Feeling busy, again

Honestly, only about 1/10 of what goes on in my life gets recorded in this blog, because I am too busy to sit and write well. I know it has been six weeks now since John and I returned from our honeymoon trip, but the travelogueisn’t completed yet. I have other incomplet projects too, plus [...]

I am back

I am back!
I was gone for 18 days, to 3 countries, flew at least 22,300 miles (the farthest I’ve ever travelled), got 8 new stamps on my passport, gained loads of new experiences, and I am back now.
It was a fabulous trip — one that I’ll continue to think about for years to come. Our [...]

Random thoughts

Just unleashing some random thoughts in my mind…

It’s funny how all of a sudden, so many things in my daily live need some fixing. I desperately need a new cell phone now, plus my laptop’s not working well, my alarm clock needs to be revived, my car needs maintenance and new tires, and I need [...]

No justice

Together with a group of elites, I got invited to a private, by invitation only, off-the-media dinner with a top-level US diplomat in Asia last night. While I felt honored to be invited, I was very disappointed with the speech that US diplomat gave, plus his mindset, his attitude, gesture, even his use of words were [...]

Whatever

If you are having a bad day, don’t read the rest. Consider yourself warned.

Crazy 2 weeks

The past two weeks has simply been — crazy.
First there was a trip to Taiwan, and during our week long stay there, John and I visited many people and got many things accomplished in four different regions of the nation. It was a very tiring trip, and just as I thought I would be able to [...]

Madness at work

If someday I develop some kind of adult attention-deficit disorder, it is because of my job. I just can’t finish any task without getting distracted!!!
I have letters to write, reports to finish, emails to respond to, phone calls to return, and people just won’t stop coming to the counter! I was gone for a conference [...]
