Some thoughts:






More:

中国的公厕有点脏,门锁坏了,冲水坏了,或遗留粪便及血液。如加上味道,就最倒眉。氧气不能带上火车。表演观众迟到,吵闹。中国很多烟民,到处都闻到烟臭。很多地方都在发展,污染可悲。人民总体卫生意思不高,随地吐痰和到处喝神(河/湖)水。吸烟处隔离差,巴士师机也抽烟。机场免税商店竟然要求客人快一点,因为他们要结账。的士师机开车吸烟,也不帮忙提重行李。

Reluctant to write in my own words, so here's the Google translate (poor translation):

China's public toilets a bit dirty, broken door locks, flush bad, or left feces and blood. And with the taste, pour on the brow. Oxygen can not bring the train. Show the audience late, noisy. Many Chinese smokers, smell the smoke smell everywhere. Many places in the development, pollution sad. People's overall health means not high, spitting and drinking God everywhere (river / lake) water. Smoking at the isolation is poor, the bus division machine also smoking. Airport duty-free shop and he asked the guests a little faster, because they want to check out. Smoking machine to drive the taxi division, not to mention baggage help.


Final words, I enjoy the travel, wishing Yunan can keep her charm in spite of the development.

Idling in Johor Pontian Kecil, Tanjung Piai & Kukup

Need a break away, it was so thankful that SL invited me over to JB. I took the new bus AC7 from Yishun Interchange, it was quite a nice ride (less crowded and no change of MRT-bus) with a flat fee of SGD2 (ezlink).

After Woodland custom, the bus wil be waiting at bus bay straight after the stairs. For journey from JB to Malaysia, it is good to pay by cash (cash RM2 but ezlink SGD2). After Woodland custom, the bus will wait at platform 2.

Visiting JB, is eat eat eat.. Eat alot during this weekend and need to detox after that. All the food is nice :)

SL became my tour guide, and brought me 去吹风 -Tanjung Piai(The Southernmost Tip of Mainland Asia)& Kukup (a small fishing village near Pontian). TX SL :)

Finding waterfall in Singapore Botanical Garden


This is my 3rd visit to Singapore Botanical Garden. First trip was full of expectation (disappointed to see the landscape), second trip was for a concert, and this trip, just to shoot waterfall (human made fountain) using my new ND grad filters.


Made many mistakes today: not shooting in RAW (changing white balance is a problem) & not cleaning my lens (can see mark on the photo). Some photo appears tinted in yellow (explanation for these? and solution) and i have to use GIMP editor to fix them.
Dirty lens where the mark is so visible >< !

I will shoot more, perhaps a real waterfall at my hometown!

2010 Christmas in Bangkok

2010 Dec, i booked myself flight and a budget inn (The Saladaeng Inn THB2400), went to Bangkok.

Don't find the Thai people as friendly as before, hardly see any sincere SMILE! Before Bangkok, i went to Singapore for some Christmas light, i think atmosphere in Bangkok is better than Singapore, at least for photo shooting. I took the walking route recommended by many: started at Ratchadamri station, passing Four Season Hotel, Grand Hyatt Hotel, Erawan Mall and Amarin Tower

Via the skywalk, passed by Intercontinental Hotel, Gayson,Central World. Further via skywalk, got to Siam Paragon, Siam Center, Siam Discovery and MBK. It was tiring, a massage was my next call :P

Singapore Night Market


very difference from Msia's night market, there is no traffic jam (no people jam also..haha!) and all the stalls are set up temporary (along the roadside).

养生功法结论:
  1. 不生气
  2. 敲胆经
  3. 早睡早起
  4. 按摩心包经
  5. 保持洁净的肠胃
敲胆经: 如图每天在大腿外侧的四个穴位点,用力敲打,每敲打四下算一次,每天敲左右大腿各五十次,也就是左右各两百下。由于大腿肌肉和脂肪都很厚,因此必需用力,而且以每秒大约两下的节奏敲,才能有效刺激穴位。

按摩心包经: 如图,在心包经的穴位进行按摩,在图中所标示的位置附近寻找穴位,找到了穴位,稍用力压就会感到明显的痛感就对了。每天在每个穴位按摩2-3分钟。
除了心包经之外,应再按摩任脉的膻中穴(两乳之间)和膀胱经的昆仑穴(外侧脚踝后方腱前凹陷处),其中昆仑穴的按摩应在按摩心包经之前实施,这样比较容易将心包积液排出。
  • 症现于四肢五官,病存于五脏六腑,是中医最基本的道理
  • 当做到敲胆经和早睡早起的功课后,人体的血液会很快增加,这些血液会充盈于人体的脏器,这时人的体形不一定会变胖,但是体重一定会增加。
  • 多数发胖的人,都是脾虚的体质。肠胃的细菌感染是最主要的原因。
  • 胆经不通的人,在胆经路过的大腿外侧会堆积脂肪。如果这个人爱好运动,这些垃圾就会往下流动,而堆积在小腿肚上。因此大腿外侧较胖 (现代女人多数如此) 或小腿肚上形成萝卜腿 (现代男人或爱好运动的女人多数如此) 的人,胆功能必定不好。
  • 肥胖不是吃得太多,而是排得太少
  • 多数发胖的人,都是脾虚的体质。肠胃的细菌感染是最主要的原因。
  • 肠胃感染主要来自两个来源,一个是来自唾液的感染,另一个是食用不清洁的食物。
