I nagged BFF for a Christmas song... and she did. She begged me not to post it online... and I did. It's way too cozy and sweet :) Merry Christmas everyone!!!
... and then I had to play one song too. The one and only song I know how to play on the piano since I was 8. (still is the only song I know after all these years... )
Just had a frest green salad from Pizza Express for lunch and had a piece of super sweet red onion! So fresh and sweet that I had to blog about it. It's so damn sweet that the onion breath that follows seems justifiable!
P.S. Loving the foursquare special from Pizza Express! Just check-in to receive a free dessert with any main course! It's my 3rd time enjoying free dessert from foursquare. Life is good :)
My Weather apps always gives out a quote while it's loading... it says "it takes both rain and sunshine to make a rainbow." In my opinion, you can make a rainbow with just a sprinkler under daylight! If there's no sunshine, then we shall enjoy dancing in the rain (or sprinkler ;P). Cheer up people!
My very last game of the season. Division 2 Gold Medal Match: Eat My Balls vs No Folk N Chance (I know... don't you love the dodgeball team names?) In set#10, I was the last one standing going against 3 of them. Very intense! Love the commentary of the video! Hahaa... Just in case you can't see my name on the jersey, I am HONEY. hehee...
Was jumping yesterday! WOOOHOOOOOO!! Not afraid to fall, just wanna jump higher and higher each and every time! Oh joy!! (still secretly hope my friend cut out the falling bit at the end! muahahaa... )
Jump! Jump! Jump! Follow by fall fall fall... hahaha! got the hang of jumping and landing during the 2nd round. WOHOO!
My idol & coach demonstrating the 5 things that i must do: eyes on the wake, squash down, heels down, arms tight to the body, and DO NOT RUSH! Could only jump if I do all 5 in a slit second! Not to mention, I love his 6 packs! muahahah...
DEAD TIRED when I got back on the boat... dead tired...
When you're with 16 (-1) EMBers, you're guaranteed to have a crazy time no matter where you go. This time it's Taipei!
Team rowdy found the rowdiest restaurant! 小乾杯 was perfect for loud & crazy crowd and for lovers of all kinds. See the loving video below for the 10 seconds challenge by H&A XD
Good looking waiters & bartender for us ladies :) errr... yes, I was a bit drunk. hahaha...
Food is good only if you ask the waiters to cook for you. The waiters are all very talkative and funny. We all had a great time there :D
Party party party! We went to Spark, Barcode, & Room18. Major surprise when Mc Hot Dog&張震嶽 performing 我愛台妹 on the stage at Spark!!!!! Wahhh!!!!
我愛台妹 台妹愛我 對我來說 侯佩岑算什麼 Yo Yo Yo Yo Come on Yo 把手放在空中甩 我叫你什麼都不用管 讓我看妳把手放在空中甩 把手放在空中甩
Smart LuLu learned from experience and didn't bring her camera to the clubs. Thus, no partying pictures!!! hehee...

Sunday afternoon, EMB hits Ximending! Hanging out at the Arcade with a hangover. Hahaha... as if we time traveled back in high school. I mean, who still takes photo booth pictures with 13 people jam packed in it?
P&B gave birth to our team mascot (after 520 tries feeding coins to the machine)!
Costume shop!!! Teletubbies got backs!! photographer, "1, 2, 3, smile!!!" EMBer under Teletubbie mask, "Dude! Why am I really smiling under this thing?" hahaa..
Errm... I mean... wakeboard is my latest addiction. From singing, cello, dancing, drinking, Thai boxing, dodgeball, and drinking... now there's wakeboarding! My inspiration was my bestest friend in the UK. She goes wakeboarding when it's 6C in the UK. She must love it for a reason in order to dip her crazy ass in the (almost) freezing water! Also a few of my dodgeball EMB teammates are very good at wakeboarding too. So one day, I just got their coach's number and called for my very first wakeboarding experience. Just to see what it's all about.
It was about 2 months ago. First attempt, I got up on the board, tried to swing from left to right within the wake. By the end of my first section, I got out of the right side of the wake and came back in. My body was sore for a whole week! My 4 limbs, my neck, my back, were aching like I have never used those muscles before. Dammit I thought I was fit!
Then a week later, I went again with two monkey asses that claimed they didn't know how to wakeboard. Turns out that monkey#1 was HELLO GOOD at it! He was jumping, sliding, and landing with his own board. I was very impressed! Then monkey#2 is just a natural athlete. She picked up in no time! With great inspiration, I learned how to wake in and out of both sides of the wake that day. Not to mention I drank about half a liter of sea water :p
A month later... (yes I waited for a month to avoid the superstitious Chinese ghost month, and dodgeball season just started so I was busy) I went for my 3rd attempt today. Went with 2 of my EMBers. I knew they're very good at it. I was very SUM YUP and messed up all my moves. Fell so hard that my head was hurting. Then took a break and watched my fellow EMBers doing 2 Wakes Jump 180, Ollie Backside 180, back roll in the air, Method Grab... I was super inspired!! When it's my turn to get into the water, I managed to wake in and out of the wake again! Then learned the basic jump!! I did a couple of tiny jumps before i exhaused myself. Loved it!! Can't wait to wakeboard again!!!
Mavis! For our wakeboarding trip in March, I will learn and catch up with you!!!
It didn't really hit me til you called before you board the plane. I have lost someone that would never say no to my random ideas. Lost a costume partner, a party crashing buddy, my one and only PIC... Your departure only means one thing-- that LuLu Lin will come home to generate more fun and memories in Shanghai! It'll be a new chapter of our lives. Watch out for more fun and memories!
Dodgeball team: Eat My Balls! Team drinks at Circle K after our first win 13-3. Polar Ice beer promotion 2 for only $6.5. Can't bet that!! My name on the EMB jersey says "HONEY 520", try to read it out loud in Mandarin XD
Dodgeball team: DLS! Also our first game & win of the season. Also 13-3! Love my girls! With 9 new recruits for this season, we are fresh and more girlie XD hahahhaa... These 2 referees in the picture are my favorite refs in the league!
Dodgeball team: Boiling Guys! This Division 1 team is super hardcore! They're so good that i'm very ashamed to play with them most of the time. However, I'm proud to be their best benchwarmer and ball girl! heh. We also won the first game of the season on Monday.
Eat My Balls has recruited a bunch of new players this season! Spliting into 2 teams, and a team building event was held a couple weeks ago. We managed to hit all the planned games, with some OOC spontaneous games in between.
First game was the ice-breaking name game. Now we all know each other's name with and adjective that starts with the Same letter of each person's name. I'm Ma-Farn Michelle or Joyful Jenna (schizo) ;-)
2nd game was called Untangle. Held each other's hand randomly and we need to untangle to a big circle without letting go. Takes a great deal of problem solving and teamwork :)
... and we're off to spagettis and marchmallows! 4 teams competiting to build the tallest structure ! Team 2B built an Eiffel Tower!! Ho ging! Followed by an OOC marchmallow fight...
... and came to my favorite game! Pictionary!! 2 teams battle with time, and the loser will get his/her face painted! I love face painting!! See my Superman & Kiss victims XD
Dresscode? Little Miss tees!
... fun day with my dear teammates! I can already tell that we'll have yet another great dodgeball season :D
