Sam's photo

I have spent the whole day uploading my photo again on the internet. Few months ago, I have do away with the old account. Then it took me several months to pluck up the courage to sort all my pictures again. The pictures that I owed has become personal... it is all about myself this time.

I have chosen a better website to upload my photos - photobucket... And I am going to share with my friends all the photo I have took around the world... There will be more to come...

Ulcers

My tongue ulcers are driving me crazy. I feel like being pinched every few seconds. The stinging pain is pissing me off so much that I want to apply more pain to it. I feel like bursting the 'bubbles' off my tongue. Gross??

I put some salt on it and it is like "wow... ". I try to control my tears and hold on with the pain. Now I have to cancel my Jap buffet dinner with Joey tomorrow and settle on porridge. Sighs...

From high attitude, we would see clouds, patches of green and brown, miniature of houses and vehicles...

Few days ago, I was on top of mountains, many mountains with snow on their peaks. It was a new experience for me. It was a beautiful sight.

The French

They said French are arrogant. Perhaps time has changed, people has changed. If they are so arrogant, they wouldn't want to sit with an asian (me). I met a nice french woman on the cabin and she speaked to me in little English. Arrogant? Not really...

However, one thing I don't understand is that why do they speaks to me in french when I don't speak any. Can't they see I am an asian? English is a universal language and that why it is for, to communicate with the world.

Rome

My friend is coming to UK to look for me next year and we are going for Europe backpacking tour. We were planning where to go in Europe...

Rome: A place that we couldn't miss - Colosseum.

Last year or two, someone told me about the movie 'Gladiators' and the place Colosseum. I was indifferent about it.

How could I appreciate a place where people got killed by violence created by man itself? I don't understand why people find it amusing or entertaining to watch violence? As I go deeper into the history of Gladiators and the Colosseum, I really find it hard to accept the thinking of ancient humans.

Criminals were put into the centre stage of Colosseum, waiting for the hungry lions to be released to the stage and tear their flesh. Is this entertaining? Not to me, it is pain rather. Thank god the lions were frightened by the crowd cheers and moved away without attacking. What happened? The beast master was beheaded for not giving what the audiences want to see.

Gladiators who lost in the competition were not spared either.

Yet, I still planned to visit the Colosseum, not to feel the bloodsheds but the sweat that the slaves shed for this great architecture just like the Pyramids.

My Face and My Chest

I was right all along... about the rules of beauty. I find my mouth a bit too small which doesn't fit in the rules of 1:1.618. It is either I have a smaller nose or a wider lips. Since re-constructing my nose is easier, perhaps I should consider having a plastic surgery on my nose. And maybe a smaller chin would be perfect too.

I went shopping this weekend and I saw this european style top. It is so sweet that I feel like buying it. I went to try it and it was disappointing because my chest is too small to fit into it nicely. I have to walk out of the shop in the end, feeling a sense of pity. I told my 'sis' about it and then about breast implants. Both of us agreed and opposed the idea. We were thinking about how to have bigger chest in a natural way like push up bras etc and suddenly, she said 'don't worry, you will have bigger chest when you get pregnant.'

And I said to her, "maybe I should buy the top first and keep it. Maybe I could fit in well after my pregnancy!" (If I still maintain my waist length...)

But the next question is "Will I ever get marry and have baby?"
