Thailand Wonderful

【First Day】
Stacy & I arrived Thailand around midnight.
It was a little scary walking through the Khao San night market at such late time.
Lots of male foreigners hung out in the bar, trying to find something...
We walked really fast in case of harrassment.

Finally arriving Lamphu House, we found it was a delicate hotel.
The Hostel manager was so nice and with hospitality.
Stacy said he spoke really softly and slow *lol*
After taking a rest for a while, we went out to find something to eat.
I truly recommended BBQ!!! So yummy and cheap!!! Only 10baht.


【Second Day】

On the second day, we went to JJ market.
It was the first cultural shock for me cuz we needed to bargain a lot to get a reasonable & good price.
I was bad at bargaining *lol*.
I'd better shut up to let Stacy deal with the price for me haha.
We gained lots of good stuffs here, including my prom outfit:)

After a whole day shopping, we went to have massage for relaxing.
Watching people doing Thai massage was really scary, but it refreshed us after that.
It was a funny moment when the massagist put Stacy's hand upon mine. How wierd!!!


It was new to me that Thailand had curfew for beer selling, so we bought the elephant beers and played Jenga in the lobby.
One little boy peeped our contest behind us! (We noticed that, little boy *lol*)
It was a close call when I drew out the really tottering one but I made it Yeah!
Stacy could not believe it and finally I won the game.
My cheeks flushed because of the beer. Stacy made fun of me that I looked like 關公 haha.

【Third Day】
On the third day, we went to Floating Market.
People here liked racing, even the boat but it was fun.
We ate yummy huh-pung here.

After that, we went straight to Pattaya.
The evil tuk tuk driver took us to the wrong place and charged us 20 baht each.
Liar plus devil!!!
It took us three hours to get to Pattaya.
Our room this time was really fancy, with TV, sofa, fridge and private bath room.
It was really cozy:)
We went to Walking street later.
We saw lots of middle-aged, gray-headed foreigners with Thai young girls...
It made us feel uncomfortable so we only stayed there for few minutes and went straight back.

Again we met another evil tuk tuk driver...
He wanted to charge us for 300 baht but actually it only worthed 10 baht...
Thanks to Stacy's cleverness, we didn't let him gain his purpose.
Then we decided to do spa for relaxing.
It was really cheap, which cost us 900 baht each for scrubing & aroma massage.
But we felt shy cuz we needed to be naked in one room.
But it was really relaxing and refreshed spa:)
Though in the end, here came to an unexpected guest, scaring Stacy a lot!!!
【Forth Day】


On the forth day, we went to elephant riding, which I looked forward to it for a long time.
The evil tuk tuk dirver was everywhere and we met another one...
He lied to us that it was very far but actually it was not!!!
The elephant was so cute:)It really walked slowly.
The elephant driver took really good photos for us.
And we also learned a new Thai word, "beautiful", which sounded like "水晶晶" in Chinese.
“象毛與大象”was really funny & cute:)
Way back to Bangkok, this time was much faster.
We visited the Grand Palace.
It was really magnificent, with spledid decoration and wall painting.
Thailand is a country full of culture and it really did a good job in tourism!!


Then we went to the department store for shopping.
We worshiped Elephant God there and hope it could make our wishes come true:)
We bought lots of stuffs at Big C.
I spent all my money there, ending up with only 6 baht in my wallet...
Stacy said I should have said 梭哈 when I paid *lol*
【Fifth Day】
On the fifth day, it was the day back to Taiwan.
Thailand is really awesome.
We definately want to visit there again!!!
People there are friendly and the food is really good!
I will miss BBQ a lot haha.
Thank you Stacy for taking care of me:)
It was really nice to travel with you! (hug)
We had a really good time:)))




【Love】The Recipe of Love

The recipe of love must include
Some herbs and spices for fortitude.
A tablespoon for forgiveness,
A clove of loyalty,
A cup of faith,
And a spring of honesty,
A pinch of patience,
A teaspoon of trust,
A cup of friendship,
And a bit of lust.
Mix all these herbs and spices well.
Add a man and a woman for proper effect,
Then saute the whole in two cups of respect.

【Love】From Van Gogh

Love many things, for therein lies the true strength,

and whosoever loves much performs much,

and can accomplish much,

and what is done in love is done well.

【Muse】Supermassive Black Hole



Ooh, baby don't you know I suffer?
Oh, baby can you hear me moan?
You caught me under false pretenses
How long before you let me go?

Ooh, you set my soul alight
Ooh, you set my soul alight

Glaciers melting in the dead of night
And the superstars sucked into the supermassive
(Ooh, you set my soul alight)
Glaciers melting in the dead of night
And the superstars sucked into the supermassive
(Ooh, you set my soul)

I thought I was a fool for no one
But ooh, baby I'm a fool for you
You're the queen of the superficial
And how long before you tell the truth?

Ooh, you set my soul alight
Ooh, you set my soul alight

Glaciers melting in the dead of night
And the superstars sucked into the supermassive
(Ooh, you set my soul alight)
Glaciers melting in the dead of night
And the superstars sucked into the supermassive
(Ooh, you set my soul)

Supermassive black hole
Supermassive black hole
Supermassive black hole
Supermassive black hole

Glaciers melting in the dead of night
And the superstars sucked into the supermassive
Glaciers melting in the dead of night
And the superstars sucked into the supermassive
Glaciers melting in the dead of night
And the superstars sucked into the supermassive
(Ooh, you set my soul alight)
Glaciers melting in the dead of night
And the superstars sucked into the supermassive
(Ooh, you set my soul)

Supermassive black hole
Supermassive black hole
Supermassive black hole
Supermassive black hole

The Queen and the Soldier

The soldier came knocking upon the queen's door
He said, "I am not fighting for you any more
"The queen knew she'd seen his face someplace before
And slowly she let him inside.

He said, "I've watched your palace up here on the hill
And I've wondered who's the woman for whom we all kill
But I am leaving tomorrow and you can do what you will
Only first I am asking you why.

"Down in the long narrow hall he was led
Into her rooms with her tapestries red
And she never once took the crown from her head
She asked him there to sit down.

He said, "I see you now, and you are so very young
But I've seen more battles lost than I have battles won
And I've got this intuition, says it's all for your fun
And now will you tell me why?"

The young queen, she fixed him with an arrogant eye
She said, "You won't understand, and you may as well not try"
But her face was a child's, and he thought she would cry
But she closed herself up like a fan.

And she said, "I've swallowed a secret burning thread
It cuts me inside, and often I've bled"
He laid his hand then on top of her head
And he bowed her down to the ground.

"Tell me how hungry are you? How weak you must feel
As you are living here alone, and you are never revealed
But I won't march again on your battlefield"
And he took her to the window to see.

And the sun, it was gold, though the sky, it was gray
And she wanted more than she ever could say
But she knew how it frightened her, and she turned away
And would not look at his face again.

And he said, "I want to live as an honest man
To get all I deserve and to give all I can
And to love a young woman who I don't understand
Your highness, your ways are very strange.

"But the crown, it had fallen, and she thought she would break
And she stood there, ashamed of the way her heart ached
She took him to the doorstep and she asked him to wait
She would only be a moment inside.

Out in the distance her order was heard
And the soldier was killed, still waiting for her word
And while the queen went on strangeling in the solitude she preferred
The battle continued on

Let's Go to yellowstone national Park!


This website aims at ESL students of intermediate levels, from first grade in senior high school to freshmen in college. The objectives of this website are that participants can be motivated to learn more about Yellowstone in English, can practice listening and reading skills, and furthermore, can learn and love English more while they “play” and “interact” with it. I make use of multimedia tools, such as video clips, pictures, record, and PowerPoint files. Just come and explore the wonder of Yellowstone National Park! Please click here:
