THOUGHT YOU MIGHT HAVE A SMILE ON YOUR FACE FROM THIS

The world farthest distance is not from the earth to the sky . It is the emotional distance between us that keeps us so far away - I stand right in front of you but you're not aware of that at all- I love you - .

Did you have a good day , my dearest friend ? I think , sometime we all need to relax like this , don't we ?


I like you

I like you -
I like you and I know why
I like you 'cause you are a good person
attracted to everyone
I like you 'cause when I tell you something special
and you would remember it for a long time .
I said something funny you would laugh-
I felt funny myself and you'd think I'm funny too .
********************************************************
I like you
I like you and I don't know why
But no matter what happen ,
it's always better to have you around
I can't remember there's some time I don't like you .
If there is , then , I must be lonely to death .
I like you 'cause 'cause 'cause
I forgot why I like you but ---
there are a lot of reasons why I like you .


+Find someone who understands you , and expect yourself to be someone who would understand others .
+Smart people love to guess what others keep in heart , maybe , they get it right every time , but lost your heart .
+Silly people love to give their hearts , maybe they are laughed at every time , but they get others heart .


See ?! To be happy is really easy !!!

Have fun here !!

many diffierent traditional mask series of chinese opera on the shop front's doors.

You can see KTV everywhere in Taipei City. This means Karaoke TV. To my surprise, most of the people use KTV at least for 4 hours !! But don't worry, inside the room is very big and comfortable. You can eat many kinds of food especially tasty Chinese. Please try KTV !!

The green image shown here is actually walking. It starts walking slowly at the beginning and accelerates the speed til is almost running when time's running out, then stops and turns itself into red color.

Crossing Taipei roads are not easy as there are a lot of traffic and vehicles coming from all directions. At the middle of many roads, there are bus lanes which buses running in opposite direction with cars in lanes beside them. This signal light helps pedestrians crossing roads a lot. It shows time remaining and the pace of walking.

Please take note that dark blue seats in the trains are priority seats meant for old people, pregnant ladies and people who needs it more than you do.
