Take My Picture Off the Wall If It Just Won't Sing For You

here i am freezing my toes off in a Lijiang hotel room. amazing place, a low-rise hotel concept with amazing facilities, like a computer in my room! the china trip really looks like its a lot more fun than i thought it would be...
to summarise all of the places i've been so far would be to exhaust my infamously bad memory. i've skated in the middle of Kunming City, eaten dog ribs and roasted chicken heart seated on woven straw stools. i've strolled the streats of Lijiang Old Town and been in too many photos courtesy of my Dad. i've seen toilets ranging from long-drop-into-cesspit to amazingly nice public toilets in a historical district. i've strolled the park in HeiLongTang and the streets of Kunming after midnight. and yet...
every time i hear Sun Yanzi on the radio i think of home. every time i see the planet hanging out near the Big Dipper at night i think of the ones i left behind. guess im still a Singaporean at heart. because whats important to me is still there. my heart, my home, my life, my DotA clan. this place is great but at the end of it all i'll be glad to be back. even without the huo guo.
