Easy Sat around the Lake ~

With some series to talk and some to watch, we are up for the brunch then.
With the nice cooling breeze in the morning, surely the hot black Yunnan coffee is one pretty good choice.
Word from the host says that local coffee; Yunnan, seems to be pretty popular among foreigner but not the local. Similar to this is also in Laos as well. Just the small fact then.
Sitting outside in the cool breeze, sipping hot coffee with yummy bread with garlic butter. That's nice. With the pretending of Sex & the City but here is the version of 'No sex & another city' haha pretty fun and joy indeed.



Another nice part here is that i got to meet up with a dear friend for have not met for sometimes. Met and nice talk with P'Sui after several years.
There goes the 2nd cup of my coffee of the day then. 'Ginger-bread latte coffee'
One of our dear host favorite coffee shop and now mine then.




Easy Saturday nice walk around for the girls to enjoy their shopping.
Around the Jade lake, we walk along.
Update on lives, living condition around and what next for the future.
Seeing many old people have fun, relaxing by using the park as their living room.
I like seeing wrinkles on their happy jolly faces.
Wind breeze, live local performances, nice time with friends.
It's such a nice Saturday that i missed out for sometimes.
Much enjoy,

April Holiday no. 1

I know exactly what is good for myself.
To boost up the energy and the vibe to keep rocking on.
SATC with a good cup of coffee.
Besides that is just the good time spending with friends here and there.

At the very indeed moment of sneaking out of my mind and to seek for the hiding place, perfect timing arises here.
Long holiday with a bit of sneaking out.
As definition of destination for me is not the place but the people i will meet.
The very good new friend of mine, Miss. Mien.
So Kunming, China here then.

As usual of my fabulous traveling plan is to have no plan.
As usual as i am for almost the last minute booking flight (plus the giz of be on the wait list and flew with TG this time) haha
Also as usual of my dear country, the protest started one day before i departed.
Slipped out from Daddy of doesn't want me to fly out word.
With my attempt to pretend of didn't hear that. (not that good daughter of me then)
I told him that it's okay Daddy, i fly with TG, somehow i will land back to this motherland. No worries... (phewwwww.... rush off to the airport for me then)

Left the chaotic behind, i was up the air with the aim of relaxing, re-energizing and re-boosting my spirit.
Being greeting with the astonishing look of them at my t-shirt and short on the arrival.
Well, at first i thought of being attractive enough so that people start to look at me on the plane and at the airport.
Seem like that it's all the weather.
Kunming is up on the high place where the weather seems to be pretty nice and cool all the time.
'Pretty cold at night so better bring the light jacket' I should have thought that faster.
To get by the cool evening, we have 'Mushroom Hot Pot' as our dinner.
WV office in Kunming is surrounded with the Hot Pot. (similar in a way to the WV office in BKK that surrounded with the night club and dancing pub)
It must has been one of the criteria to look for the location then.
- It needs to be surrounded with something extremely.
haha just joking then.

So the first dinner is pretty interesting.
I've heard of this hotpot for several times from Mien.
It does lift up to the reputation.
It's the hotpot of the wild mushroom.
Even though it's not in the season so it's frozen, still the texture and the taste are pretty nice.
So the step goes like this
1) the mushroom goes in. Only the mushroom. Then it's up to the kinds that you chose for the minute that you have to wait them to be cooked.
Pretty fun to wait and see how hungry people need to be a little patient. Coz if you are being a little impatient, then you might be poisoned by the mushroom itself.
Again, thx to Mien for keeping the time or else Hang might not get back to Vietnam alive then. haha
2) the tofu and potato go in.
3) all the veggie.



Well, at this place is good service as the waitress/waiter will just keep on serve you. Not saying that it's the good serve but it's more of their duty to do it though.
More tea.... my cup is never empty.... More mushroom.... More tofu.... More greens.... my bowl is always full either you want it or not.
If you dont' want it, you just put it aside after they fill in your bowl. haha that's a good service i'm talking.


After that we arrived at KTV with a little drama from the taxi driver.
Poor Mien in listening to him though.
Kind of annoying of 'why these girls are so loud? Why are they laughing so loud or speak so loud? Other foreigner or Chinese are not loud like that!
OMG! i just want to scream out!! (luckily that i didn't)
Anyhow, with 4 beers and singing our lung off made that went away.



Original plan was to check out the local club but the crowd doesn't seem to able to keep the energy as high as I and Mien.
The question poped up as 'where do u get all the energy from?? And you just arrived!!'
haha... it's all there.
It's just that.

Off Head -

As the tear drops from the sky tonight, my fear arises.

Dont' know why.

Not sure why.

The sharp pain strikes through this fresh meat of mine.

The feeling occurs.
In the middle of thunder and lightenings.

-- FEAR --
Lightening 1: Fear of losing live(s).
Lightening 2: Fear of losing control of oneself, mine.
Lightening 3: Fear of losing the ability to be true to oneself, mine.
Lightening 4: Fear of being who i (u) no longer know anymore.
Lightening 5: Fear of seeing the unfamiliar thing/flesh in the mirror.
Thunder 1: Fear of the thought that fly high and no sigh of return.
Lost ...
Lightening X: Gone ...

What am i?
What are you?
What's all that?
Absent minded.
What's so scare?
Why so?

Transforming me.

Don't get offended.
I'm just hiding.
Being absent minded.
Find me.
Being lose head.

What am i?
What are you?

Pls beautiful lightening ... pls be gone.
Left all the beautiful mess inside here.

...zzzzzz

--'Asleep'---, Angie [Hart]

I know who I’ll be
Don’t know if you see
I’ll start like a seed and I’ll grow like a tree
You’ll hang your love from my branches and leaves
Just watch me

When the bough breaks
Your baby will fall
You’ll sit by the phone and you’ll wait for my call
If I seem a little rattled
Just rock me

Out of all of the infinite things I could be
I’d like to believe that I’d like to believe
I’d love to believe I’m alive and I’m free
But I’m not
I’m asleep

I’m the person you’d be
If you ever were me
Perfection in construction a little incomplete
I get what I want and I want you to try and stop me

I’m a little disillusioned
I’m a little frail
Everything’s raw and it hurts to inhale
Maybe this is over and over with me
Or maybe this is just a different dream

---

Floating in the air.
Walking on the surface in my own thought.
Sinking in.
Not sure of what to think of.
No one to think of.
Let myself sink in.
Drifted mind.
Let it afloat.
There ...
here...
where...

confuse...
Gone ..
Try to enter the state of sleep
To be inactive
Feel nothing
Being numb.

Hope the night will end soon
and the sun will rise again.
energy is at low....
zzzzzzz........
