I love this entry:
I'm breaking my promise here by reproducing without permission (BUT I quote) a friend's blog entry (my friend is an award-winning blogger). I find it thoughtful, relevant, and incisive. Let YT denote my friend. Here's an excerpt from the entry:
There are so many things that we think about throughout the relationship, so much that sometimes they distract you from concentrating on your relationship and the person you love most.
Very often it is the journey and not the destination that matters.

Finale
This shall my last entry at this blog. I see no reason why I should keep it open and public when the greater world out there maintain "secretive" private blogs elsewhere (open to "invitied" readers only). I am shutting it down for good. Read the silence.
Thank You for your unfailing support, those who are still reading my blog. I started blogging as a happy soul but left it a dejected one. I need a shell where I can hide into, away from human traffic and undue relationships. It is too tiring an ordeal to handle them. I wonder how loneliness is a misery when personal bonds can be so fragile and superficial, threatening to break at every instant of difficulty and chagrin. I am my own littoral. I renounce love. I just want to be left alone in my pile of books. Here I am translating this into action. I marvel at my own determination!
I am now skeptical of all things nice and kind. I would ask if there is any ulterior motive behind a show of humility. This is wrong but I have turned into a recalcitrant kid. I display animosity not only towards social institutions but at everything else as well. Nonetheless I still see hope in the future, hope in the society, and hope in myself.
My youthful days in Taiwan will forever be etched in my memory.

Closing down this blog......
because it has now become nothing but a personal diary, one that documents my travels, especially those in Taiwan. If I can abstain from blogging and keep my itchy fingers from clicking onto blogspot for more than a week, I will "close" it down by making it password-protected for the Taiwan posts and delete all other entries. This is my first step to leading a life of seclusion, before I deactivate my MSN account (heard that it has been hacked into and spammed) and the most-hated facebook one as well.
Happy birthday, my fair Republic! If not for you I would still be wearing a pigtail!

OMG! Freaks!
No wonder I have been feeling so poor recently. The airmails of books keep pouring in, and my savings reserves keep flowing out. I have made too many online purchases of books. I don't mean to contribute to American finances in this manner, but apparently I have been doing so. So much for being a book collector.

人间有余温
I have to blog about this:
Having done some business at the washroom, I left a library book at one of the cubicles and only realized it after an hour. I returned to the washroom and found nothing there. Just when I thought that all hopes were lost in recovering it, I saw on my library records that it had been returned! (I would have done that too, like if I find a book at a toilet cubicle I would take the book and dump it into the bin located outside the library) Thanks, whoever you are!

Days of my life
Every morning, I would wake up to my dosage of vintage SBC dramas on TV.
This would be followed by a radio one and my favourite was好好过一生. I just love FM95.8. It is really informative and interesting.
And I particularly love Fridays. My favourite shows of黄金年华之光辉岁月and斗歌竞艺are aired on that day. Oh, and I love to watch 意难忘and爱. I have caught more than 700 episodes of the former. I hope they would both hit a thousand each in time to come. I used to watch阿诚, 台湾霹雳火, and世间路too in the past.
Why wait till retirement when I can do all these things now?
