  • 40 birthday

    Wednesday, Apr 16, 2008 8:25PM / Members only

    I was on travel most of the time during the last 2 months, and felt bit lazy to update the blog, I hate travel, and nothing on the road was interesting enough to let me write something. My group presented me a birthday cake with surprise - I didn't know that they would do so...  When I had my 30 birthday, one colleague gave me a watch with name and birthday itched on the backcover, I lost the watch 2 years later, what a pity. This time, I had something sent via post to me, and I really like the nicely wrapped package, and the gift inside.
  • Medieval Sourcebook:Marco Polo: The Glories Of Kinsay [Hangchow] (c. 1300)

    Sunday, Mar 2, 2008 12:22PM / Members only

    I came across a interesting record of my hometown in China, Hangchow(or HangZhou): http://www.fordham.edu/halsall/source/polo-kinsay.html I am not sure about the accuracy of Marco Polo's descrīption about the city, but something about the lake, West Lake, is mostly reliable, and reminds me the rich history of the city, and breathtakingly beautiful scene of the lake:
    "Inside the city there is a Lake which has a compass of some 30 miles [note: probably 30 li] and all round it are erected beautiful palaces and mansions, of the richest and most exquisite structure that you can imagine, belonging to the nobles of the city. There are also on its shores many abbeys and churches of the Idolaters. In the middle of the Lake are two Islands, on each of which stands a rich, beautiful and spacious edifice, furnished in such style as to seem fit for the palace of an Emperor. And when any one of the citizens desired to hold a marriage feast, or to give any other entertainment, it used to be done at one of these palaces. And everything would be found there ready to order, such as silver plate, trenchers, and dishes, napkins and table-cloths, and whatever else was needful. The King made this provision for the gratification of his people, and the place was open to every one who desired to give an entertainment. Sometimes there would be at these palaces an hundred different parties; some holding a banquet, others celebrating a wedding; and yet all would find good accommodation in the different apartments and pavilions, and that in so well ordered a manner that one party was never in the way of another. "











  • 天府家常菜, and life as a diplomat

    Wednesday, Feb 27, 2008 1:33PM / Members only

    I realized one friend of mine has posted our eating event online:
    http://www.princeroy.org/?p=517
    they are a very nice couple that I often go out and try different cuisine with, and they are moving to Laos soon, after service in India and Hong Kong. Few of them from the group of diplomats speak perfect Chinese with almost no accent. I used to view diplomat's job a dream work: banquet, press release, parties, but it has a hard side as it requires you to move from once place to another very few years, until you get retired. Anyway, wish them good luck in another exotic place.

  • Chinese New Year apero at home

    Friday, Feb 8, 2008 5:56AM / Members only

    今天是大年初一,妈妈在家里摆了些冷盘,开了两瓶(后来加上邻居家的第三瓶)香槟,邀请了左右两家邻居来家里喝一杯。两家喝的比较多,左边的里昂两公婆能喝会侃,一直和我和右边邻居家的男主人在讲布鲁塞尔的古旧建筑怎么没受保护,和Duvel啤酒是以前战争时候亲德比奸的厂里出的。。。一直到10点才走人。消耗了大量我带回家的腊肉和香肠,还有鸭赏。临走里昂说,差不多好回来了吧?随便找份工作么算了。 下周去面试两个公司,看看是不是有好的机会。
