TC is going back to KL

After 3 years and 8 months, TC finally got on the plane to head home. I miss home...1.05am(9/29/05) departure time from SFO, arrived Taipei Intl Airport at 5am (9/30/05). After about 13 hours of sleepless night/day on the plane, my eyes can no longer open wide and I really feel tired.Even though it is physically tired, I am so excited to see the family in another 9 more hours later. wahahaha.... zzzz...zzz... wahahaha....
Now I am waiting for my boarding time at 8.30am. Still 3 more hours to go and all shops are not yet opened.


Red eyes... after over 30 hours (18 hours from previous day + 13 hours SFO to Taiwan).


As you can see from this pic, I am in Taipei Intl Airport now... wahahaha... still 4 more hours to go.

Golf 101- Addressing the ball

Always remember when addressing the ball: stand closer, do not over extend your arms.

Jeff, demonstrating putting (See how close his hands to his belly?).

Tommy, chipping for 10 yards to green (choke down the club, stand closer).

Meeting with another long lost friend - Nelson Q

Hmm... I have met with another long lost friends lately. Nelson Khiew (aka Birdgod Q. Nelson sounds like bird god in mandarin and his last name sounds like Q). The last time I met him was back in end 1995 before he went to Nebraska. He is currently in Atlanta. Nelson is a big dude back in college time. He is still a big dude now (as you can tell from pic). The thing that people like about him, where I believe all his friends will agree about, is his personality.

We asked someone to take the group pic for us, seems like it is not focused right.

Tommy Chin, aka Dogman
Nelson Q, aka Birdgod
Jaren Q, Birdgod's son, so cute :).

Good to see you again, take good care my friend.

Meeting with a long lost friend - ChengWei

Today, I met with a long lost friend from college - Cheng-Wei Lim.
Cheng-Wei is here visiting west coast with 2 friends. We were apart since 1998 graduation. I went to another town for my first full time job, 6 months later, I came to SF. He on the other hand, went to Dallas. For some reasons, we lost contact for years. Until last year, I ran into a girl in SFO airport and found out that she actually knows my friend (They were from same high school somemore !). What a small world :)... From her, I got a hold Cheng Wei again.. yeah...


















After 7+ years, the 2 friends finally met.
















Jean and Brian with the seafood!
We ordered fish, shrimps, crabs (say in cantonese: yu, har, hai).
















Jean, Brian, and Cheng-Wei

Have a safe and fun trip here...

Nice packaging

Marketing 101 reminds me that for every products we are selling, we need to have the nice packaging. Main reason is to grab the attention.

I found this Asian brand crackers (Manufactured in China) with an outstanding packaging from other Asian brands crackers/cookies on the shelves. Most of the China made cookies/crackers are mostly with simple packaging. This, it grabs my attention. With my curiosity, I bought it.








It consists of 8 colorful packs inside.















From the outer package, it shows that it has 8 different designs.
















These are the 4 designs I have. Looks cool huh? each with its theme.

Photo shooting

I was trying on the camera functions to get some cool shots...
I still can't get the right images that I was thinking in the beginning. This has to be improved. Stay tuned for more interesting images.














What is this??















This is a "diving raisin" but can't see the raisin ... hehehe...













This is the "diving cracker", but can't see the splash :P.

Improvement needed:
- Brighter area
- Need Polarized/UV filter

Enjoy viewing :)
