My 2013

My Amsterdam has been in my draft for more than a week. I still can't decide how i want to post it. A photo spam maybe. Anyway, the past few weeks are rather busy for me, both work and helping out in wedding (I love wedding but i realised wedding planner can't be my dream job).

It is almost the end of october, which mean Christmas is around the corner, and we will have to welcome 2014. I can't wait for 2014 to come. Hopefully 2014 will be good for me. I am already thinking what to do in 2014. 2013 has been quite exciting for me. I can feel things are slowing down, and chilling out.

I hope i get to try out bungy jump next year. I know i am random. But i realised the older i get, the more afraid i am. I wonder will i get heart attack halfway through the jump. That will be spectacular.

Oh, i want to try sky dive as well. I need to try all these more dangerous activities earlier before i turn into scardy cat.

Oh yah, i want to go to Venice at least once before it is drown and i had done that. One thing off my checklist. My brother told me to have a bucketlist, and i doubt one piece of A4 size paper will be enough.

I am going to countdown to 2014 in Hong Kong again this year! And i miss Taiwan. I want to go there and eat and eat and eat. I miss the steamboat, fried food, beef noodle, stew pork rice, porridge, and more.

If you are still reading this entry by now, you must be wondering what is the purpose of this entry. There is no key point. I just wanted to ramble. =)

Roman History

After a visit to Rome, I am drowning myself with information regarding Roman History. Yes, me! History is not my cup of tea. I was more a Geography person, and if you know me since my secondary school life, you will know that I chose Geography over History (Not that I am good with Geography either). And Mr-know-it-all (aka Mr Chong) commented I really don't know anything, do I. Maybe I am really thirsty for more information or i am seriously irritated by Mr Chong's word, i drown myself with information.


Before the trip, I only heard of Vatican City, Colosseum and etc. Those popular places of interest and i only know the name. It never occur to me that one day I will be interested in their history as well. Guess who was the first person I google when I am back in Singapore.

King Hadrian! And why, you might asked. Because the king had a BOYFRIEND. One of the tour guide briefly mention that one king had a boyfriend when we saw the statue of the boyfriend. I actually went all out to find out whose the king. Some things never die. Even when drowning, i am drowning with gossips about them as well.

My next target for research is Alexander the Great. Ehem, you should know why.
