Favourite Christmas Song Live

It was required of me to write a recommendation letter for myself to my host before I arrived in Taiwan. After writing all the formal stuff, I wanted to add in my special interests, to give my host a better understanding of who I am. So I was thinking, thinking and I came up with the four following interests: 1. Eating fruits 2. Punching 3. Talking to strangers about special interests 4. Giving massages. I realized soon after that these interests can be connected and done all at once, as in: Eating fruits and punch-massaging, a stranger while talking to him about special interests. Of course, I didn't write any of this in the recommendation letter.

A lot of people in Taiwan wear mouth smocks to help reduce the amount of pollution being breathed into the body. I have tried a few times, and it not only relieves me of the traffic/factory/cigarette/general atmospheric pollution, but also gives me two new senses of freedom.

Firstly, there's the freedom which is similar to that of wearing sunglasses – which is the less people can see of you, the more secret you feel. Secondly, there's a freedom to say anything to yourself, and not be conscious of what other people think of you because people can't see your mouth move, and your voice is muffled. So for those times where I need to say things like “Oooh baby”, I have the full liberty.

I have discovered that Taiwan girls are prettier than I thought. Someone said a comment which I thought was quite fair: “Speaking of prettiness in the form of the makeup-less look, Taiwan girls come in the top few out of the typical Asian countries.” But, for me, unless I get to know the girl, there are only a few forms of pretty girls. In other words, to me, a lot of them look the same. This concept has inspired me to take photos of Taiwanese girls and label them into categories/types. If this does go ahead, I will NOT ask them if they would like to see their photos on my blog. Easier to ask for forgiveness than for permission, some of the times.

My favourite Christmas song, live.
