As promised, I have uploaded a picture of me on Yangmingshan in Taipei. It's pretty cool up there (as you can tell, I was quite wrapped up) and quiet (no tourists in sight; probably it's because it was lunchtime and they'd all gone). Dogs are allowed to move around rather freely in Taiwan. They need not be leashed and can even enter restaurants!
Was it Alicia who also went to Taiwan last year? Well, it was my first time to HK in 2007 and to Taiwan in 2008. This year, I might go to USA. I have been there before in 1999 and travelled quite a fair bit there during my 3 months stay there. I was in Boston and took a driving holiday all the way from Boston to Florida which took us 3 days. We spent a few days at Disney World resort and had a wonderful time there. Then we drove to Oklahoma where I spent one and a half months before returning home. It was quite a relaxing and eye-opening experience for me as I was basically a housewife (which I had never been since I got married) and socialised with the Americans. I cooked Singapore-style curry for them (it was my first time cooking it; frankly it wasn't very nice) but it was 'awesome' for them! Ha ha! Maybe it's because it was a totally fresh taste for them.
Hope to see all of you again this year on Teachers' Day...just to see how much you all have grown. More pimples, voice changes, etc...

Hello. Just dropping by. And... I was the first to comment! ^^ Hahas, can we go back on CNY? And we're be wearing secondary school uniforms (which we still look quite weird in) besides what Mrs Leong mentioned!
I hope we can go back to Keming on Chinese New Year too, because it's closer to us than teachers' day... School reopens on the 12th for me.
Hi! I have short hair now due to Nan Hua's strict school code. I have to tie plaits if I want to keep my long hair but I'm lazy... And I think I'll come back on CNY too.

Hi kids,
Thousand apologies for not updating more regularly (it must be freezing cold till I revived it a minute ago!) Really busy at work.
That was not my dog. It was taken in Taiwan; some kind of sheepdog, I think.

You all can drop by during big school events -not a problem. Pui Yee has my mobile no. (can't reveal here!)
