It was good, but Hong Kong Disneyland was not very good.
I did get a lot of clothing from UNICLO.
I hate going back to work.

I spent the whole afternoon watching planes take off and land…
I also saw one of our netbooks at the Sound and Vision electronics stores…
Then I just wandered around aimlessly for three hours with a mask on because of swine virus.
It was a painfully boring afternoon.
Swine virus outbreak is really frightening, everyday in newspaper or television, people tell you to avoid travelling overseas.
But guess what? I am going to Hong Kong tomorrow!
To make things even more interesting, just tonight there is a confirmed case of swine virus in Hong Kong.
Shit.
It was such a short trip, and now I am back in Taipei.
Gosh I really I really miss Melbourne. I really had a great time.
Hope I can go back again in July.
I am experiencing quite a lot of strange weather changes recently.
I was in Turkey last year and experienced the coldest day in 10 years, around -10 degrees celsius.
During my honeynoon, when I was in France some said it was the first time since 1937 where it snowed in an October.
This time back in Melbourne, I experiencied three consecutive days of temperatures above 43 degrees celsius, which is the first time in the history of Melbourne weather bureau since records began in 1855.
Coincidently, the mercury peaked at 45 degrees celsius yoday, the hottest in 70 years.
Great, all of these weather changes is making me think one thing. The end of the world is coming.
Rafael Nadal and Fernando Verdasco are playing their semi-final match at the Australian Open right now. I hope Nadal wins.
Only a few days back in Melbourne I am already experience something I haven’t experienced in a long time.
Heat.
Melbourne is expecting a four consecutive days of 40 degrees Celsius or more in more than a decade.
Today is the first day, and the weather bureau records the the hottest in six years, at 43.4 degrees.
They expect tomorrow to get even hotter. Oh boy, I cannot wait.
Back in my hotel room, at a rather less populated area near Tokyo called Ochanomizu, I noticed the Internet speed here was rather fast.
First I thought it was the new Google Chrome browser which made the difference. Then I noticed BT was working silently in the background. I opened it up and these were the figures at the time:
I have been using dial up back in Taiwan? This speed is incredible! The upload speed is faster than my average download speed in Taiwan, it’s just amazing.
This 2gb file suddenly finished downloading in a mere 15 minutes. Looks like I have something else to do tonight.
This is how I am going to summarize my trip.
Absolutely Fantastic!
I will follow up with pictures.
To Hong Kong in 24 hours!
It should be a fantastic trip!
I am back from Turkey.
It was fun walking under the snow.
Ten below zero in Ankara, under the snow, outside the hotel entrance, I had a quick reflection of my life over the last three years.
Sometimes, coming out of a meeting with some potential customers, whether I was in Bangkok, Hanoi, Manila, Sydney or Istanbul, I would catch my reflection in the elevator doors, in a shirt, and a briefcase in hand. In a blink of a second, I would imagine myself as leader of this industry, shouting out orders, closing the deals, before I remembered who it was that I really wanted myself to be.
People often say, Why Simply Win When You Can Dominate?
I don’t want to just be better than someone, I want to be the best as who I can be.
I am happy to be back in Taipei.
