台风天的生日。。。祝我生日快乐 happy birthday to me

生日在星期一。我特别申请周末和星期一休假。

人算不如天算。台风13当时刚好离开台湾,朝冲绳前进。冲绳岛的天气因此非常阴霾,时常下雨。我以为我生日注定会在大风雨中度过。幸好,台风只是经过冲绳的边缘,并没有直接登陆,间中因此有些时候,天气是放晴的。老天看来还是对我不薄的。

生日前三天的晚上,和同事一起去喝酒。生日前天,刚巧朋友邀请我出席一个海边烧烤会。生日当天,不想一个人待在家里,和朋友一起北上hedo misaki。就这样地度过我生日。不算太精彩,也不算太无聊。

令 我意外的是,一些朋友从新加坡传来生日祝福。想不到他们还记得我这一号人。真的有点感动。我老爸也用原始的电话,传来他的祝福。虽然声音粗鲁,不过我也感 到他的关心。谢谢Ian和 PL 从新加坡带来的礼物!谢谢Isako sensei's cake! 谢谢大家的祝福!我在冲绳因此也好像不太寂寞了。

希望我生日后会过得更好,更充实,心想事成,在下一个生日能和一个特别的人度过。

To Hedo Misaki (Sep 15)

I took the eastern route up north. passed by some really fantastic looking scenery in the mountains... and many winding roads. This is the dam area.


cute signboard


by passed this weird place along the way. got 2 lions and some old movie posters... but there is nothing out there except trees... really strange! maybe this place is for the ghosts to visit in the night.

wheelchair soccer

My Japanese sensei is involved in wheelchair soccer sports.... yes , you are right. wheelchair soccer!

Sensei said that wheelchair soccer originates from Okinawa. So how can I miss this chance to see this unique sports?

I was free one day so she brought me to the gym to see the sports. And I got to try the sports first hand! I just practiced for awhile, then the captain invited me to join them (all the players were really friendly towards me). It was really really fun and not as hard as I think. This sports is totally suitable for the handicapped and normal folks like me (most players in the gym were in fact not handicapped). They should introduce this sports to Singapore!




see the kid on the right? He was a good player leh ....

Each sports wheelchair costs around 5000 USD. No wonder only this gym in Okinawa has them.
