One night in Baiyun Airport
unbelievable tranquility
lights were all dimmed
no counters in operations
not even 7 Eleven
and the free wifi service is only available
after activation with
a local mobile phone number..
or a Sina Weibo account with verified identity
never mind
Two soring feet
there are loads walking
to and fro the Metro station everyday
exploring among the smaller streets
tripping over stones
it is indescribable,
the joy of holding a half torn map
and secretly put down ticks here and there
Three-sixty degree Celsius
here you go, the wrist-mark
preserve the tone a little till the next trip
I really wanna see how dark can it get
imagine that Garnier skin tone challenge
but I am doing it exactly the opposite
Four-letter-word: LOVE
that’s my one and only loot
for the whole trip
if you were to consider books under that label
love at first sight you may call it
now that the whole set is complete
DVDs, books obtained across borders
with complementing bookmarks,poster, postcards
ya, I am that kind of freaky
Five Nights of Dramarathon
I watched practically everything on TV,
dramas, new and old, like five of them
CCTV agricultural and military documentaries
variety shows, those dating one!!
and best of all,
being in a strategic southern location
Hong Kong channels like TVB and ATV are available too
Six Banyan Temple
lost count of how many temples
did we actually visited
one of the most memorable one
an iconic Banyan leaf fell right in front
somehow I was (am still) reflecting
do I really care about visiting these places
culture wise, religion wise, heritage wise,
or just merely tourist wise?
Seven days of disconnection
no wifi in the hotel
yet they provided LAN cable
but it doesn’t really harm me that bad
since I have tried staying DC in hostel for 3 days
moreover
if we equate Facebook to internet connection
then it doesn’t really make any difference, does it
Nine Avenue
been here twice
one of the the most happening pedestrian avenue
old buildings with nostalgic and historic value
yet most have been converted into
fashion stores, catering to the mass market
which does create a contrast
with what I have imagined it is supposed to be
and guess who did I bump into
actually the billboard is everywhere
but perfect shot from a movie trailer..
I am still somehow have pride in
my non-pro camera and skill
slowly experimenting with it,
throughout the way
Ten RMB lunch
average price for a plate of rice / noodle
mixed rice,
or literally translated from the menu “fastfood ”
the amount of pork and its oil are like…. no way!!!
never mind sharing is caring,
I did not throw a single thing, I swear
