Braces vs. BJ

Brace it !!!

Here is the picture of my teeth, before and after the braces was installed yesterday. There's a gap on my lower teeth that I wanna fix.
I doubt that I can withstand it for 1.5 years. The pain I can endure, but I can't stand my inability TO EAT!!!
This's a big torture for someone who likes to eat :(
Maybe I'll have it removed within days... we'll see 

ROC Centennial Celebration

When I decided to go to Taiwan for its Double Ten day, all I had in mind is, I wanna take pictures. I didn't think much nor plan about it. So, on the 9th, I was cluelessly went to register myself for an event called "庆祝中华民国建国100年国庆四海同心联欢大会" a celebration of 100th year of Republic of China with overseas Chinese. Btw, this's my 1st visit to Taiwan.

It was true that it was attended by overseas people, a lot of them (said was attended by 22,000 ppl); all swarming at Taipei Arena. The event was somewhat grand, they have some belly dancers (tell me why?), Japanese singer, Hong Kong singer, and of course some Taiwanese singers and performers.

Anyone remember Alex To 杜德偉? He was performing as the representative singer from HK, while the young ones were so bored by the song, there were a small glittering crowd that cheering non-stop for him: it was the belly dancers: fit for the seductive song 脱掉. Hahaha.  Another Taiwanese singer, Wan Cai Hua 王彩樺 was singing BoBee 保庇 (Bless Me), the young were cheering and singing along with the super silly song, but the elders were either away for toilet-break or complaining for the irritating voices. The situation changed when Judy Ongg 翁倩玉 sang, the elders were singing along, they know every single words she sang, obviously the young ones complained about the lullaby-ing songs, about to doze off there. Hahhahaa. I can see there are generation gaps here :)

Despite the whole grand performances, the true star of the event was of course, President Ma 马英九.

The Whole Reason of being at Airport

A young family walked into airport, suddenly the little girl stopped and called her mom “Mommy!!!” and she demanded hugs and kisses from Mom. Mom hugged and kissed her.

Mommy:  Baby, You are so sweet (holding her hand and keep walking)

   Baby :  Daddy, why Mommy not going?

Daddy : Hum? What do you mean? We are going together, three of us

   Baby :  But I wanna kiss Mommy good bye

(Overheard at Sydney Airport)

Chocolate Alive!

Who would expect worms-invested-chocolate if you get it from Italy? Well, I wouldn’t, I always thought these European countries are so developed that there won’t be such case. Plus it's from a reputable branded chocolate. Anyway, I bought these chocolates from petrol station somewhere in Italy, bought a few packs home.

One day, I munched another piece of chocolate; I get some tiny chocolate sands on its wrapping. And then I saw something moving. Oh, no!!! Wriggly Worms!!! I checked all chocolate in that bag, and they were all infested by the worms. Good nutritional addition, but urgghh, maybe not. They were all went into the bin. Btw, I checked the expire date on the pack, it’s 2 months away (in food tech world, this is still a safe period for quality and health issue)

I never heard any worm in chocolate case before. Try to google it, although I found some entry about it, but it’s very rare. Apparently it’s a moth’s larvae, it feasts on sugar and fat (that’s why they are so plump). Suspected the chocolate is contaminated before wrapped; or maybe some moth laid eggs while it was kept in my kitchen cupboard. Maybe Mom was right, chocolate meant to be kept in the fridge. Sigh…
