I’ve finally done it. I’ve replaced my old blog system.

Unfortunately for anyone who has subscribed to my rss feed, your reader will probably see all old posts appearing as new ones. I apologies if this causes any troubles.







My new year’s resolution is…

As much as it might kill all my brain cells, wireless do rocks. And free wireless is even cooler.

I’m at Kao Hsiung Intl airport RCKH right now, waiting for my flight to VHHH, using their wireless provided by HiNet (which is like the best network in Taiwan).

So, what to do next… download some LCA 2007 videos? apt-get update && apt-get -u dist-upgrade? ;)

Hmm… doh! Flight delayed a bit… oh well… more coding time…

許瑋倫 Wei Lun 1978 – 2007

I wouldn’t call myself a fan of Wei Lun. Though I have a few (software) picture of her. The first time I noticed her (being a piano freak myself) was when I heard she played the piano and the harp well.

And on the first day arriving Taiwan, the news has got my attention on her again, being she was seriously injured in a car crashed and was in a deep coma. After less than 2 days of emergency treatment, she passed away.

Being in Taiwan when this happened has made me feeling even more real and close to this incident, as if it’s something I should really be concerning about. Guess that’s the power of the news channel on TV, which was continuously showing updates of her status.

As a GWG lover, I guess this photo has become a collector’s item now…

Well, Wei Lun, R.I.P.





Tainan trip 2007

Hello from Tainan, Taiwan.

Staying here for three weeks or so, till just a little after the chinese new year, then heading to Hong Kong for a week before going back to Sydney.

It isn’t as cold here as I was told. In fact there were days which were considered hot (>20°C).

Food is great here as usual. The Taiwanese style fried chicken, all-you-can-eat hotpot, lamb hotpot, mini hotpot (yeah, lots of hotpots, even though it’s actually pretty hot now), seafood, steak, all sorts of ice tea and drinks, you name it. Not only they’re bloody good they’re also bloody cheap. We also went to the end-of-the-(chinese-)year (Wei Ya) dinner of a relatives’ company, which was absolutely awesome.

There’s also nite markets, and some minor random sightseeings and (window or not) shoppings.

I’ll keep uploading new photos here.
