Took my time to enjoy my ex-colleague匡宁's book: 《台湾笔记》.

在《我报》实习的时候，印象中的匡宁话不多，总看到她在一个角落的办公桌上默默打稿。*在我看来她仿佛“人体打印机”啦，“产量”很惊人！* 但只要我有疑问，她还是会耐心地教导我。现在她转当自由写稿人不容易（还是我梦想的“旅游达人”呢！我也想啊，但阅历浅，书写能力也还待加强~），她做到了我很佩服、很羡慕。希望有朝一日我也可以自由地从事我喜欢的书写的工作！
喜欢匡宁分享她知道的、看到的、认识的台湾。这一切都从她的角度出发，无论是回家乡或是为了工作也好，她都可以从中发现台湾不同角落的魅力所在。*遣词用字简单易懂，华文不好的朋友也能看看！* 我没去过台湾，一直都只是听朋友说台湾哪里哪里好、哪里哪里漂亮，哪里哪里一定要去看…… 读完了《台湾笔记》，我还真记下了一些我日后一定要去看看的台湾好去处如乌来内洞瀑布、南投竹山的天空的院子、参观地震博物馆、去北投泡温泉、尝尝阿里山的铁路便当、来一趟铁马自由行（等我的脚踏车骑术再稳一些啊~）等等。
原本想在今年3月到台湾去玩，但最后因时间紧凑而作罢。没事，来日方长。总有一天，你们也可以读到我的“台湾游记”（短短几天的旅行日记而已啦）哈哈！

Been a fan of 정해인after watching "Something in the Rain" and "Spring Night". Watched his first-ever hosted and produced travel variety show called "정해인의 걸어보고서" (Jung Hae In's Travel Log). He visited New York together with his actor buddies임현수and정은우. I enjoyed정해인's itinerary: staying in Airbnb, visiting Niagara Falls, Central Park, Empire State Building, Times Square, Brooklyn Bridge, Grand Central Oyster Bar, different famous burger joints, Ellen's Stardust Diner, Blood Manor etc. Only eight episodes, but the trio had fun together. I liked the atmosphere there and that's what travelling with friends should be like! *Oh and he ate so many oysters on the show... Potato would love it too!*

台湾和Netflix合作的三部华语剧之中，我最喜欢的就是“彼岸之嫁”了。故事题材改编自旅美华裔作家朱洋熹的畅销小说《鬼新娘The Ghost Bride》，故事背景设定在1890年英殖民时期的马六甲，女主角潘丽兰（黄姵嘉饰）仰慕一起长大的林氏家族侄少爷林天白（林路迪饰），但为了拯救生命垂危的父亲，被迫前往阴间完成与林家已逝少爷林天青（田士广饰）的冥婚仪式，展开一段人、神及鬼魂的悬疑事件。我喜欢的台湾男演员吴慷仁则饰演穿梭阴阳两间查案的天庭守卫“二郎”，他帮助丽兰逃出生天，也默默喜欢着她。
戏里演员的服装、气氛、装潢等都一级棒！虽说是6集长的悬疑片，但其中又有一些幽默搞笑的部分，所以还不至于吓死人啦哈哈（吓死人的片子我都不看的哦~）。感觉这部剧以后若要延长拍成一套完整的电视剧也会很精彩的！

"사랑의 불시착" (Crash Landing On You) seemed like a hot k-drama at the moment, so I watched all 16 episodes and finished it quite fast! 리정혁 (현빈) is a North Korean army captain whom one day caught South Korean CEO윤세리 (손예진) paragliding right into his country by accident. The story began as he tried ways and means to send her back to South Korea without people knowing, but this caught the attention of the North Korean army, as well as윤세리's second brother and wife whom wanted her dead there and then. Oh and of course, our tough CEO lady fell in love with the all-honest-block-of-wood captain lol.
Not the best k-drama I've watched... better than "Decendants of The Sun" but I still can't understand why the finale viewership rating was higher than "Goblin"'s... maybe it just tells audience how famous the two leads are! They definitely looked good together, Switzerland was pretty (I loved윤세리's paragliding scenes there~), storyline was interesting in the sense that we could see the big difference between culture and life in North and South Korea, and yes I do think리정혁's bunch of 4 comrades were one of the highlights in the drama too.

6/2/20 Thurs: Racing Division had our lunch Taste Garden restaurant at ORTO. My salmon fillet with was too dry and salty though. Duck salad was alright. Wasn't feeling well in the air-conditioned space and was sneezing in the office in the afternoon. *Poor health recently... on-and-off fevers, flu and cough.*

11/2/20 Tues: Managed to go for a session of aerial yoga and did some flips!

12/2/20 Weds: Had lunch with potato at Sushigo at Jurong Point for lunch... it was not bad. Resumed kickboxing class in the evening at Pioneer dance studio with Kelly after more than a year~ Jess joined me too. It was only the second lesson, so she didn't make us work too hard either. *I did realise that the amount of calories burnt in Kickboxing classes were more than that of in Pound classes!*

16/2/20 Sun: Attended "Palm Therapy" at Gek Poh Ville CC with Jess on a Sunday morning. The teacher was half an hour late for class, so she gave us the tools we could use for our own palm therapy for free. It was interesting to know about the theory, but it got me confused a little as I'd learn acupressure massage before too. One thing though, she emphasized that foot massages are way quicker in relieving any pains in the reflected areas than hand massages. 

Rushed for tuition with Eshan and Adi after a quick lunch at home, and then dinner over at my in-laws. *Woots~ PotaTOHs sat in a BlueCar SG that MM and Andre drove for the first time~* Uploaded some shots of our wedding photoshoot on PotaTOH's anniversary day too!

21/2/20 – 22/2/20 Fri-Sat: Had a quick haircut at the market on Friday afternoon after lunch and went for race day duty. Potato rented a car to transport his stuff back home from NTU hall, so he came to fetch me after my work ended and stayed over.

We drove to Sakuraya at West Coast Plaza for Sashimi lunch yay! After returning the car to Cycle and Carriage at Jurong East, we took a bus and MRT down to Boon Keng and walked over to the Audiohouse Sale. *Aish dear almost forgot to take his bass guitar from the car boot!* We spent a few hours looking at the electronic appliances, and in the end settled for a LG front load washing machine, Turbo hob and hood, 707 25L Kensington water storage heater and a Samsung 2-door fridge... less than $3K after discounts.

Had zichar at Blk 503 for mum's early birthday dinner. We ordered their江鱼仔炒青龙菜、咖喱鱼头、虾酱鸡and招牌豆腐... $70. We thought they were not bad, especially the招牌豆腐.

25/2/20 Tues: Did simple stretches and moves in aerial class tonight. However, I could not stretch as well in the legs and I felt some weakness in the muscles around my knees... maybe I'd overworked them in kickboxing or pound classes hmm~
